Rubin Special Features Editor An audit of the Black Student Union (BSU) released by the University administration shows that at least $631 from a travel advance of $2,142 remains unjustified. The audit, which was performed by the internal audit staff of the University, confirms a previous report authorized by the Student Association (SA) last month. The audit was requested by members of the BSU who claimed the SA report was inaccurate. However, this new report, submitted by the Director of the Office of the internal Audit, R. D. McLeron, claims that an even greater amount of money is unsubstantiated than what was reported in the SA examination. The report notes that only $1,654.69 of receipts were handled in to cover the $2,142 travel advance November. Of that amount, issued last approximately $ 150 of receipts were disallowed by the audit committee, and another $150 of receipts could not be evaluated because the auditors were not sure whether these receipts were proper under the guidelines established by SA. Possible lawsuit At a meeting between Assistant Vice President Bubble is for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, assistant administrators of Student Affairs Richard Lidge and Howard Deuell, and executive members of SA and BSU, it was decided that BSU would be given until February 21 to turn in the remaining receipts. If proper justification to the funds is not made by that time, BSU members may be open to criminal and civil action. reinflated after storm damage Intramural programs and regularly scheduled gym classes which were cancelled last week will resume today at the Amherst Bubble. During high winds and chill factors of below 40 degrees, the generators which blow warm air up between the $250,000 two-skinned structure froze causing the Bubble to drop. The Bubble decended on the basketball hoops and lights, ripping the canvas walls. Maintenance’s quick reaction to the situation kept the damage to a minimum. Funds to repair the structure are guaranteed by the company and State aid. “The Bubble is serving its purpose, basically, but we do need a new facility,” said William Monkarsh, Coordinator of Recreation at this University. “It was a great thing by the Administration to put up the Bubble,” he added, but said that it cannot withstand theheavy amount of usage. Monkarsh added that the Bubble is just a “stop gap,” until a permanent athletic facility is completed. The audit report lists the $143.96 disallowed receipts and explains why they were excluded. In most cases, the reason for the disallowment stemmed from missing or inconsistent dates on receipts. Bills from Tops and Shop Rite supermarkets were undated. Bills for gasoline were dated more than one day before or after trips. There was one instance of a $7 gasoline bill dated one year before the date of the trip, and there was another bill which had no date and no indentification at all. The auditors were also unable to determine whether another $151.05 of receipts were proper under SA guidelines. This group included receipts for BSU basketball team expenses, food purchased in Buffalo while the travel status indicated that the purchaser was outside Buffalo, and receipts dated one day after the travel period. The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 53 State University of New York at Buffalo Monday, 14 February 1977 Possible cutbacks Students administrators meet on operation of tie lines , it they will be severely affected. by Janis Kern Staff Writer within these Many students groups feel that they have been Spectrum unjustly accused of abusing their tie-line privileges. They gave a and Student leaders administrators will meet Thursday to discuss the administration’s plan deny to student organizations access to tie-lines as part of an effort to conserve funds. Student leaders are nearly their in saying unanimous severely be will operations handicapped as a result. The changes were authorized by Dr. W.H. Baumer, Assistant Vice President and Comptroller, as one of several changes in for telephone services the number of reasons. Vital University community. Presently there are about nine tie-lines on Main Street campus shared by student organizations and department administrators. The cost of telephone service including the use of tie-lines is currently $26 a month. Tie-lines cost the University approximately $480 per month. Baumer plans to introduce a separate tie-line service to student organizations. ‘Suspected abuse’ Baumer and Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty feel the student organizations have been getting much more use of the tie-lines than they have been paying for. They also feel that these groups tie-lines, are the jamming interferring with administrators’ access to open lines needed for long distance calls. Asked why the students are being held responsible for the misuse of tie-lines, Doty admitted William Baumer that there is only “suspected” abuse, such as using tie-lines for personal business. Baumer sugjgested that all of the 100 student groups that wish to use tie-lines share one or two at $480 per month. But student leaders feel this will make it nearly impossible to get an open line when long distance calls must be made. Therefore most long distance calls will have to be dialed direct, and undoubtedly lead to will phenomenal phone bills. Most of these organizations feel that their need for tie-lines service is mandatory and without the First, use of data transmission by computers on the tie-lines ties them up for long periods of time. Second, putting the tie-lines on hold for long periods of time keep the lines occupied. And Paul Maggiotto, director of New York Public Interest Research Group(NYPlRG), said, “During the winter break when few people were on campus and tie-lines were not being used by student organizations, it was still next to impossible to get an open line.” Drew Mendoza, Director of Community Action Corps (CAC), said CAC needs the tie-lines for state wide projects and that there will be a “loss of educational CAC benefits for members without the utilization of the lines.” Another student reason organizations are taking the blame may be that the confusion with the tie-lines is only occurring on the Main Street and Ridge Lea campuses and not at Amherst. The student organizations do not use tie-lines from the Amherst campus, which may lead some to believe that since the trouble is the taking place where organizations’ offices are located, they are the responsible parties. ‘Foolish’ What will the reprecussions be? —Vazquez organization leaders feel they will be severely hurt if tie lines are lost.

He also feels it will be an unnecessary expense to change the telephone numbers on posters, cards, handbills, etc. each stationary, for organization which is included in Baumer’s plan. �Low pressure, pollution, sunspots taking the blame by Keith Friedlander Spectrum Staff Writer Though almost anyone will tell you that this has been one of the worst winters in the history of the Western New York area, you would have a hard time finding out why. In fact the meteorologist on duty at the National Weather Service (NWS) office at Greater Buffalo International airport was at first reluctant to concede this winter was nastier than most. “Terrible weather? This is Buffalo,” he chided. He then however, launched into a description of the unusual weather system which has set all kinds of new records in the Buffalo area, including the most snow in one season (ISO inches and still counting), most ’ consecutive days where the temperature has not broken 32 degrees and most consecutive snowy days (45 and 53, respectively). Monstrous low Apparently, a deep low pressure system set itself up over. Newfoundland very early this winter and began to pull down parcels of frigid aictic air that normally would have been destined for Canada and the Plains States west of Chicago. It is this monstrous low which has accounted for our miserable weather, according to the meteorologist. But when asked why it was sitting there he could only give a non-commital “I don’t WETATHETf TOMORROW'S know.” WGR TV’s weatherman Barry Lillis was unable to offer further enlightenment, giving almost the same explanation as to how it was so cold and snowy. When pressed for reasons why the weather has been so bad, he explained that “nobody knows why,” but went on to list some currently popular theories. Some scientists are blaming pollution from cars and factories for blocking some of the sun’s rays from reaching the earth’s surface. This they claim, has led to a general cooling trend in the earth’s climate as much as 2.5 degrees in the past thrity five years. However, the NWS meteorologist disagreed, claiming the earth has actually been in a warming trend for the past decade. — Sunspots Another theory points to sunspot activity as a determinant of our weather patterns. Sunspots are irregularities in the temperature of the surface of the sun. Low sunspot activity would mean cooler temperatures here in the Northern Hemisphere. Unfortunately, sufficient records do not, as yet, exist to disprove that theory. WER’s Lillis favors the theory of Don Gilman, chief forecaster for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) in Washington, D.D. Gilman believes that the weather we are now having is just a temporary “fluke of nature.” So what does the future hold for us? “A good question,” answers Lillis. “I predict an early and mild spring.” The Weather Service meteorologist is more wary. While he too predicts milder weather for awhile, he cautions the weather could change at any time, adding, “We still have to worry about St. Patricks day!” But before you start packing away your winter things, consider this. Barry Lillis has been forecasting weather for a dozen years, the NWS meteorologist for fifteen, but when asked whether the forecasts for tomorrow would be any more accurate than their first ones made more than a decade ago, their answer was the same. No. Fridge Lea 9 ‘ Students complain of bitter cold buildings UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE NORTON HALL Monday & 1 nesday Feb. 14 and 15th Indoors at the Ridge Lea Campus, it is not uncommon to see students, employees and faculty draped in winter attire, while vpicing their dismay about the reduction in temperature^ James McMillan, the maintenance supervisor at Ridge Lea, explained the reasoning behind the inadequate heating. The previous storm severely hampered the gas supply in Buffalo. “We are trying to conserve heat, because Ridge Lea is run by natural gas,” said McMillan. The temperature is being regulated at 65 degrees during daylight and 55 degrees in the evening, as mandated by the National Fuel Gas Company. McMillan stressed that “if we do not comply, they will shut us off completely.” University President Robert Ketter ordered all thermostats on campus be turned down to 65 degrees, regardless of the heating fuel. Ketter reported that many buildings exceeded the 65 degree temperature limit. Ketter warned that any further disobeyance of the ruling might result in a shutdown of the service. Maintenance has been overwhelmed with complaints meanwhile. Michael Benyo, a student who frequently attends Ridge Lea said, “The classrooms are colder than usual, and although T wear my coat, it’s difficult to concentrate, especially in the library.” Wind tunnels Employees of the library agreed. Clerk-typist Murial Utnehmer also complained of frigid temperatures, adding “I have a bad cold and it’s difficult to type when your fingers are frozen. ” The library therostat showed a reading of 60, as opposed to the v65 degree temperature. Although the cafetaria thermostat registered 65, employees shivered behind the counters. “It’s very cold in the cafeteria. Normally most of the employees wear uniforms, but now it’s slacks and sweaters,” said A.M. Beamer, a bus girl. The constant opening of doors brought in additional cold due to winds. Other annoyances, such as uprooted concrete and doors left ajar also contributed to freezing weather. McMillan explained that while the Main Street Campus is heated by coal, and the North Campus runs on electricity, he did not forsee a change in the way Ridge Lea is heated, since the property is rented by the University. Two weeks ago, Donald Rogers, professor of Speech Communications had actual air conditioning in his office. “I was told that the heater was in working order, but the pumps had failed,” he said. “Nevertheless, this semester is conducive to wearing a coat.” , Page two .

These protests have given rise to the following questions; Who is responsible for the decision concerning the closing of school; what are the criteria for that decision; and why did the delays occur? Vice Presi ent for Finance and Management, Edward Doty said if the weather appears threatening, University police wake up around 4 a.m., check the grounds and call the senior maintenance supervisors if necessary. If conditions were severe, Dave Folts, head of maintenance, calls Doty, who in turn contacts the University president, the person responsible for the decision. Doty said that the guiding criteria in determining the school’s “open or closed” policy depend on the University’s ability to receive commuters in the campus parking lots. If the lots are relatively snow free and the risk of accident is minimal the University remains open. School policy requires the announcement of class cancellation by 6 a.m., and according to Doty, University parking lots were still in good condition at that time on December 1. Doty explained if not for Mayor Makowski’s decision to declare the city in a state of snow emergency, the school would have remained open. Doty said immediately after the school received word of the Mayor’s declaration, announcements were made reaching the public by 6:55 a.m. Similarly on January 27, the lots were in adequate condition, but the rapid deterioration of weather conditions between 6 and 8 a.m. led to Blue Bird’s refusal to transport students between campuses, resulting in the closing of school. However, the University did not announce its decision to cancel classes until 9:30 a.m. The University did not stand alone in its decision to remain open and was accompanied by many downtown businesses and some schools, including those in Kenmore School System. Doty said, if school were to close every time snow warnings were forecasted, the administration would be acting foolishly since only one out of every four predicted storms materializes. “This is a cold climate, Doty said, “that’s obvious. As you well know this was the worst storm in Buffalo’s history, thus prior experience didn’t serve as a warning of what was to come. If the city of Buffalo were to close every time there was a harsh wind, or snow it would cease to exist. We want to give the students the best education possible so we stay open as much as we can.” On January 23 school remained open despite the fierce weather conditions. However, gale like winds severely hampered travel and by noon that decision was made to cancel night classes.

Many people do not know that the State does screen professional competence,” Kramer continued. 'However, their process can be improved.” She added that NYPIRG is presently seeking a court ruling on doctors’ advertising. According to NYPIRG supervising staff attorney, Val Washington, “Most people feel helpless when a physician has treated them improperly. They often don’t feel they have a right to complain and are unaware that the law has provided help, for them.” Washington claimed the Medical Society of the County of New York is critical of disciplinary action against doctors. Realizing that doctors are reluctant to complain about each other, the Society set up a system where doctors could phone in complaints about other doctors who might need help because of drug addiction. “Drug Thus, their problem is not made public. “Drug addiction is a professional disease with doctors,” remarked Washington. She quoted the Medical Society of the County of New York as saying that 2 percent of all doctors are drug addicts. “I feel that disciplinary action should be taken against doctors even though the Medical Society’s method may have some success,” said Washington. “The Comsumer Help Center, a project of the New York University Law School and WNET (Channel 13, New York) has been working on the problem of complaints about doctors. They came up with the figure of 5 percent of all doctors being incompetent. The Brooklyn Medical Society said that this figure is outrageously high.” “How to Complain About Your Doctor” is one of a seriew of NYPIRG booklets including one titled “How to Complain About Your Lawyer.” Washington said that there will probably be a follow-up, depending on the results of this project.

NYPIRG researcher Max Rudman, who prepared the pamphlet, warned that the complaint procedure is very long and the patient who institutes one should be prepared to see it through. Rudman is confident, however, that the process can achieve results and hopes it will encourage more patients to pursue their grievances. NYPIRG staff attorney, Nancy Kramer said that no one particular dramatic event spurred the publication of “How to Complain About Your Doctor.” “People are always calling with complaints about their doctors, and they don’t know where to turn. This booklet tells people where to go,” Kramer explained. She added that people with complaints should not go to medical societies because they are not legal organizations and not all doctors belong to them. “Most people think that this is a new process but it has been in existence for a number of years.

Spurred by a Congressionallyordered 150 percent increase in Energy the Research and Development' Administration’s solar energy budget, researchers at dozens of U.S. universities and become colleges have overwhelmingly convinced that the harnessed rays of the sun will be able to provide a majority of the needed energy to heat buildings, homes, and domestic water within the next decade. Of the ERDA’s $290 million, compared to $108 million last year, budget for solar energy activities, a little over one-third is out to educational dished the remainder is institutions divided between industry and the ERDA’s own labs.

The cost of these materials exceed the cost of heating a home with other conventional fuels, like oil and natural gas, the report showed.

For information and brochure, cad or write According to a preliminary New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG,) New York State taxpayers may soon be paying for the closing of Nuclear Fuel Services Incorporated (NFS.) a NFS is nuclear fuel reprocessing facility, the only one of its kind in the United States. It is a subsidiary of the Getty Oil Company. In accordance with Federal law and regulations which require that radioactive wastes be located on government lands in order to ensure the public from exposure. New York State created the Atomic Research and Development Authority (ARDA), later to be restructured as the New York State Energy Research AERCO Montessori Teacher Training Program 1400 East Willow Grove Ave. Philadelphia, Pa. 19118 (215) AD-3-0141-42 and Development (NYSERDA.) Authority In 1963, ARDA leased to NFS a 3,300 acre site located thirty miles south of Buffalo at West A Valley. Storage Waste Agreement was formulated for the operation of this facility by ARDA and NFS. This agreement contains several loopholes that would allow NFS to shift responsibility regarding nuclear waste disposal to the state before December 31. 1980. Although Hudson claims the agreement was inappropriately negotiated, NFS has already begun to shift control of the project to the state. Would you miss this?

Leakage danger Construction began on the plant in, 1963 and by 1966 NFS had begun reprocessing unused uranium and plutonium obtained from European and Federal reactors. This Government processing has created 600,000 gallons of highly toxic and radioactive waite byproducts. The substances are stored in cooled underground tanks to prevent leakage of any toxic substances into the atmosphere. These radioactive waste products will remain toxic for more than 250,000 years. The tanks they are stored in only have a life expectancy of about forty years. Additionally, NFS has also built many trenches for storage of low level nuclear wastes. Contamination of the surrounding soil has already started, and to according Dr, Marvin Resnikoff, a nuclear physicist at SUNY at Buffalo and a recognized expert the area of in environmental problems, it is only a matter of time before these low level radioactive wastes spread to ground water supplies and streams of the surrounding area. If by chance the underground tanks level containing high the radioactive wastes ever rupture, contamination of the surrounding soil areas and Lakes Erie and Ontario would be inevitable. Furthermore, the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) that regulations require be byproducts radioactive solidified and shipped to a Federal Repository for final deposit. Costly In 1971, the West Valley plant was closed down for expansion, and maintenance, decontamination after reports of leakage, worker radiation previous contamination, and shutdowns. In April the NFS 1976 NCR ruled that faoftity as presently designed would not withstand a major earthquake. In addition, a submitted to NCR by report Pacific Northwest Getty Oil has legally separated Laboratory indicated the cost of itself from financial liability and converting wastes to solid form, as NFS went further into the red, transporting them to the federal Getty Oil refused to supply capital, although further repository, and then storing the wastes and decommissioning the according to Hudson, it will be West Valley facility could cost Getty Oil which will profit from nearly $600,000 million. the sale of NFS’s assets, not New In view of these obstacles, NFS York State. president Ralph W.

MASS these would have New York State take the full financial burden of the defaulting NFS. Essentially New York would also be bailing out Getty Oil and the nuclear industry. State officials have asked the Federal Government to take responsibility for waste produced by the U.S. Government reactors. Therefore, New York is basically taking financial responsibility but delaying the actual turnover by negotiating with the government. Since New York could not forsee the waste disposal problems and since the NFS plant is not the only nuclear fule reprocessing center with waste removal problems, a third alternative the Federal would have take full Government responsibility for all liabilities. There is a strong argument for this alternative since most of the high level wastes stored at West Valley originated from European and Federal Government Reactors, not to mention a significant portion of high level wastes from across the U.S. that were also disposed the r e. A highly improbable fourth alternative would be for Getty Oil to assume responsibility for its subsidiary. The fifth alternative is for the. state or Federal Gevernment to accept financial responsibility and have the cost made up by initiating a special tax on the nuclear industry and other facilities expelling atomic wastes. Hudson concluded that unless a feasible plan of action is taken immediately, the taxpayers of New York State may be burdened with an estimated seven hundred and fifty million dollar tax bill.

It is necessary to come to the defense of Hustler's Larry Flint, Screw's Al Goldstein, and the Deep Throat gang, not because we recommend their publications and films, but because their prosecution is repugnant to free speech in a democracy. It is frightening that the concept of obscenity itself, or the existing community standard that defines it, may be used to supress constitutionally-protected speech or press. There is greater danger in censorship than in allowing publishers and filmmakers to sell whatever addlts will buy. There is no hard scientific data that pornographic books and films precipitate criminal or antisocial behavior. What is disturbing is the evangelical fervor of anti-obscenity crusaders like Judge Stiller, and the prosecutors in Cincinatti, who found a cause in Larry Flint. Hustler, without a doubt, is mainly trash. But it is also part of a magazine formula including Playboy, Oui, Penthouse, Club and Gallery that is in many cases the vehicle for serious, legitimate journalism. Freedom is lost in small steps: even Hustler has articles in it, however poor they are. How many of today's moralists would stifle off-beat social criticism such as was spoken by Lenny Bruce, or burn copies of an important novel like Henry Miller's Tropic of Cancer? Censorship and tyranny go hand in hand. Let's not forget — — that.

Arts Backpage now will have much worse inferred upon it. The normal snowfall in Buffalo is only 49.7 inches. I do admit it can get windy and cold, but this year is different than any on record. All the bad publicity and bad mouthing of Buffalo is a terrible injustice. The city has much to offer. Concerts, the — Richard Korman — snow, which brought the total (before today, Wednesday) snowfall on Buffalo to 173.4 inches. Because of this disaster Buffalo, which already has the nickname “the armpit or asshole of America,” Philharmonic, many fine plays, an excellent zoo, museums, great skiing to the South, 75 miles from Toronto, 15 miles from Niagara Falls, etc., etc. And, what of the good that came from the storm. Compassion for they fellow man, shown through all the help our fellow neighbors gave each other. Also, Mayor Makowski has lifted the ban. So what, you say, now we must drive with at least three passengers in each vehicle. Well, for me, due to brake problems, this has been a blessing. Many individuals now can save their money by not using Metro. Hitching is excellent. Buffalo you’re okay! Your Mayor, though he doesn’t know, has helped hundreds of people. Makowski has made an illegal thing legal. The three passenger law aids people in getting to their destination. Finally, environmentalists should get up and make the law permanent. Makowski never realized that he could solve the pollution problem so easily and We are frequent passengers on the Bluebird busses. We’d like to complain about the size of the seats for those of us who must sit on the bus (especially on the yellow school buses). We are all over 6’3” and have much difficulty fitting in the seats. Not only do we find sitting sideways uncomfortable, but we also find it quite constricting to force our knees up against the backs of the seats in front of us. This is a new form of discrimination inequality of tall folks. 1 wish that Bluebird would arrange a couple of seats in each bus to accommodate us. This way tall folks will have the chance of not ending up with dislocated knees or having some stranger sit on our laps. — Dave “DuBa" Benz (6 ’6") Scott “The Lumberjack”Forrester /6'4"j and three others i �The citizen and the official To the Editor: by Elaine Levinstein A year ago 1 wrote an article about a perplexed, confused, and lonely girl who found beer blasts threatening and disgusting. I’ve grown up Now, one year later, and no longer a resident of Clement Hall, but a cool and hip “off campus” dweller, my focus has varied and 1 find myself troubled by a new problem. I’m no longer in search of “deep raps,” ’’intimate encounters,” and “real meanings.” I simply want to attend a stimulating lecture where the professor doesn’t spend the majority of the time smoking, coming in late, drinking coffee, talking privately with special students, and holding the lecture for a quarter of the scheduled session. I’d like to relate some of my experiences this semester concerning this kind of lax behavior. At the second meeting of one of my classes, the professor entered and stated that she would be back in ten minutes. She had to do “something.” Why she had to do “anything” during my scheduled time period was beyond me, but I gave her the benefit of the doubt, and hoped she would return soon. She came back forty-five minutes later and taught her lecture, a somewhat condensed version, 1 assumed, to the three students who somehow felt obligated to stay. Another class I attend regularly necessitates my getting up by seven to-be at the Ridge Lee campus by nine. This course generally lasts fifteen to twenty minutes, instead of the scheduled two hour session, which forces me to sit in the cafeteria for four hours until my next class, also at Ridge Lea. My other professors generally tend to be unconcerned with maintaining student interest in the subject matter, creating an atmosphere not condusive to learning and personal involvement. Although the Ridge Lee cafeteria provides various educations of sorts, it should not be my steady hangout between mini-lectures. When one views this in a financial vein, it becomes obvious that students are being cheated. These professors are being amply paid, and if one were to compute their hourly fee, it would certainly not justify ending class early. My complaints are in direct reference to various Social Science fields, physics, engineering, and other such disciplines are characterized by professors with different attitudes. However, there are thousands of Social Science majors here and we too are entitled to the best education we can get. Part of the problem of teacher apathy arises out of disinterested students. Perhaps requirements for entry into many departments are too simple, resulting in large numbers of students who are disinterested, and distract from rather than contribute to the class. But, honestly, is it not the teachers’ responsibility to stimulate the class? This is particularly the case in classes where the subject matter is flexible and decided upon solely by the instructor 1 feel that part of the problem is due to the simple fact that they (the professors) can get away with it. Their superiors, namely those who can fire them, are not watching them closely, or not at all. Closer surveillance and routine check-ups would probably tighten things up a bit. This would prove who is and who isn’t taking his job seriously. Arthur J. Lalonde, Jr. The Editor’s bias To the Editor. Apparently, The Spectrum's editors were very much impressed by a caricature of the LA Times, which amalgamates France, Arab money and Nazism. They even found it proper to enlighten their readers by reproducing it in issue no. 46 of January 21. Being an Israeli, I feel that a few words of reaction are in place. The French court was indeed rather expeditious in ordering the deportation of Muhamad Audel, alias Abu Daud. However, one should remember that this order was formally legal, the Abu Daud is only a presumptive suspect for planning the events which led to Munich Olympic Games tragedy, that the killings there occured after the German police, incited by the Israeli government, started a massive shooting, and the German government itself has liberated the two terrorists who were caught there. Nevertheless, what worries me more than the fantastic disproportion involved in that caricature, is the apparent selectivity in the political interests of the editors. We have not found much in The Spectrum about genuinely fascist regimes, let alone caricatures identifying them with the Nazi salute and the swastika. Forgotten are Pinochet of Chile, the shah Pahlewi of Iran, Park of South Korea, Suharto of Indonesia, the murderous military juntas of Brasil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, regimes which are all experts in tortures, and which have massacred literally millions of political opponents. And while the Middle East seems to attract the editor’s interest, they have not found much to say about my own Israeli government, which is maintaining a brutal occupation over one and a half million people, and which is acrobatically avoiding any peaceful settlement. Until the editors show some signs of concern for these tragic issues, the publication of a caricature accusing France of Nazism can only be considered as an insult to the readers’ common sense.

While the article was well-written and positive, for which 1 thank the reporter and The Spectrum, any and all praise should go to Film Committee Chairperson Robert Graham. The continuing excellence of the film program is directly attributable to the fine efforts of Mr. Graham and the members of the Film Committee. | Jr W T£ WR <P/47/ m3 jmx.iMU Monday, 14 February 1977 .

Monday 14 February 1977 Saturday night at Clark Hall, Buffalo’s basketball team gave a sparkling demonstration of how they have compiled a 3-17 record this year. Their method is called inconsistency. Many times this year, including Saturday night, the Bulls have only played a good half a game. Unfortunately for them, the schedule contains only full games, and even worse, Saturday night’s game went into overtime. So, with a pitiful first half, a splendid second half and an inadequate overtime, Buffalo lost a 79-77 decision to Akfon University. While the Bulls struggled during ihe first half, Akron could do no wrong. The Zips’ 6-1 guard Ned Hicks had no trouble getting inside for easy layups. Buffalo’s Donald Scott had received the assignment to cover Hicks, but couldn’t handle him. The diminutive Hic!;s led Akron in rebounding in the first half, while hitting on six of seven shots. Buffalo also had trouble with Akron’s tall front line. Buffalo was playing a three-guard offense, and briefly a four-guard offense, because coach Leo Richardson had benched forwards Eric Spence and Vernell Washington, “The last three or four games that we lost, those two guys didn’t have any points. They were playing the best they could, but I felt I had to do something different to win,” Richardson said. Akron took advantage of Buffalo’s three guards to compile a 31-20 rebounding advantage in the first half. Buffalo was also not helped by their dismal 30 percent shooting. With Akron leading 41-26 at halftime, Richardson tried to motivate the team. “1 came in and 1 told them who was going to start and who was going to guard whom,” Richardson said. “I told them it was all in their minds. There was no yelling, no screaming.” With that advice, the Bulls returned to the court and soon found themselves down by 21 points with 14:14 left in the game. But then, apparently, Richardson’s advice sank in, and Buffalo came back in a hurry. While guards Dnaa Mitchell, George Cooper and Scott were applying tremendous pressure, forcing Akron to commit many of their thirty turnovers (Scott had seven steals, Cooper had four, and Mitchell blocked two shots), Buffalo scored fourteen straight points to cut Akron’s lead to 55-48. Buffalo continued to dominate the second half, and when Scott hit a driving layup with 2:45 left, Buffalo had its first lead of the game, 65-64. Scott added one freethrow.'but then Akron’s John Britton hit a ten-foot shot to tie the game. Neither team scored in the remaining 1:45 to send the game into overtime. Akron again took the lead, building it up to five points with 1 ;01 left. And again Buffalo came back. Scott hit, a freethrow, and Ed Johnson hit a jumpshot. Akron turned the ball over, and Johnson hit a ten footer from the left side to re-tie the game with 0:13 remaining. But as Hicks was bringing the ball upcourt for the Zips, he was fouled by Cooper. Hicks, who had been killing the Bulls all game,added the last two of his game-high 27 points with eight seconds left. ' Buffalo’s last chance failed horribly. Johnson came down court and with time running down, took a twenty-foot shot, which the ubiquitous Hicks blocked. The ball came down and Johnson and Hicks fell on it, yielding a jump ball with only one second to go. With no time-outs remaining, Buffalo was not able to set up a play off the jump ball. Spence, not known for his outside shooting, stationed himself where the tap would most likely go, instead of a good outside shooter. Johnson won the tap, Spence got the ball, and his twenty-footer was off to the right. Buffalo center Sam Pellom led the game with 19 rebounds, his best game of the year. Hicks ended shooting ll-for-13, and had ten rebounds. But the most damage was in the freethrow statistic. The Bulls shot only 7-for-20, which could be added to the list of reasons why they lost the game. �Win bolsters chance of making EC AC playoffs by Larry Amoros Special to The Spectrum There are very few “old reliables” left in sports today, and the hockey Bulls have been blessed with not one, but two such valuable commodities. When’ the Buffalo skaters need a big lift, they turn to two veterans to spark the flame of victory, center Ray Gruarin and goalie John Moore. Last Saturday night at the TIMBEBLANP HERMAN Guy's & Gals' Sizes DISCOUNT PRICES iMPVfraWr Tonawanda Sports center, Gruarin and Moore led the Bulls to an exhausting 4-3 victory over the arch-rival Oswego State Great Lakers. The victory in the first game of the weekend double-header should bolster the Bulls’ chances of making the ECAC Division II playoffs at the end of the regular season. A committee comprised of the athletic directors of six Division II schools examines the records of all the schools in consideration, then, combined with the individual coaches’ ballots, plot the top twelve teams for the post-season competition. The Bulls’ record now stands at 9-4, two full games ahead of the Lakers. The Bulls jumped to a 3-0 first period lead on goals by Tom Wilde, Eddie Patterson, and Gruarin. The Buffalo skaters completely overpowered the Lakers in the first stanza, and fired 21 shots on goalie Steve Paluseo who often appeared to be playing by himself. The Buffalo forwards forechecked deeply in the offensive zone, and forced the Oswego defensemen into making many an errant clearing pass. At the other end of the ice, the Bulls’ defensive corps, minus captain Tony Scaringi (separated shoulder) played smartly, picking up the man in front of the net, clearing the zone deftly, and controlling the blue line in the offensive zone. Carl Koeppel, Tony Vesona, Gary Trumpfheller, WASHINGTON SURPLUS CENTER Dick MacLean, Dan Gemmer, and Paul Pitman were so effective in the opening period that the Lakers managed just nine shots at Moore, who handled them all “Tent City” 130 HAW, IT TVffCI •53-1515 VOiisr. Empire, BankAmerlcc-'d Cosh — flawlessly. “The defense has been the key free Icvvotvo/ STUDENT to our turnaround this season,” said Buffalo’ coach Ed Wright. “Up to this point, everybody has been doing a good job, which is even tougher with the absence of Tony [Scarjngi]. I’m looking forward to the future, when they keep improving.” But the Bulls’ 3-0 lead quickly evaporated to 3-2 in the second period, as the Oswego squad begin fighting back. At 5:28, Jamie Richards found himself to Moore’s right, and fooled the Buffalo netminder with a tricky long side wrist shot. Then, with the Bulls’ Eddie Patterson in the penalty box for hooking, the Lakers’ Chip Wallace scored a power play goal off a shot from the left point at 14:40. Greg Preston’s long floater was deflected in front of the net by Wallace and skittered in past Moore. The Bulls managed to hold the Great Lakers off the board for the rest of the period, although they were outshot 15-8. typical As are in Buffalo-Oswego games, the third period is always a thriller. When the teams reappeared at the start of the final stanza, the tension in the rink began mounting. The Bulls started the period playing cautiously, but gradually began pressuring the Laker defensemen. At 9:42, Gruarin picked up a loose puck in the slot, shifted to his right, cut in, and drilled a twelve-footer behind Paulseo, for what proved to be the winner. The play began when Gruarin’s linemates, Jack Kaminska and Rick Costello, had forced the puck loose deep in the Laker zone, enabling Gruarin to swoop in on the disc. “I’ve got excellent wingers; I’m playing on y high, scoring line,” commented- Gruarin. “The goal came on a three-way pass play. 1 was in the slot, and the puck just came out to me.” At, the period’s midway point, the teams switched ends of the ice,'to compensate for some bad patches of ice behind one of the nets. As the halfway buzzer rang, Buffalo right winger Stu Campbell slammed one of the Oswego skaters into the boards while going after the puck. Referee Jim Messersmith assessed Campbell a two-minute charging penalty for his overzealousness, and while Campbell was sitting in the penalty box, the Lakers scored their second power play goal of the evening. Defensemen Dan Ane captured the puck at the left point and skimmed it across ice to left wing Stan Moore, who fired a blast wide of the far goal post. But center Kim Wescott was standing in perfect position at the right corner of the crease to angle Moore’s shot behind the sliding Buffalo goaltender. The Bulls took two more penalties late in the game (both by left wing Ron Reisweber), and while neither resulted in a goal, the four third period infractions irked Wright. “1 thought that we had the taking of stupid penalties out of our system, especially in an important game this,” like commented the Buffalo mentor. “How is it possible to justify a personal vendetta when everyone is working so hard?” Goalie Moore finished his evening’s work with just thirty seconds remaining in the game, when he was forced to make a great kick save off of a Ray Seeback , backhander from in front. The Bulls killed off the last dropped seconds, few and record to a Oswego’s disappointing 9-7. Despite the win, neither Wright nor Moore were completely satisfied with the Bulls’ efforts. “This was a' typical Oswego-UB series, although we didn’t play up to our capabilities,” said Moore. “1 think that the ice flowed us down, we had to dump the puck in a lot. We weren’t able to get our passing game working,” “I was happy with the first period. In the first period we played well,” added Wright. “The second and third periods were lackluster in terms of our efforts. We weren’t finishing our checks.” While both men were able to find mechanical faults within the evening’s action, nobody could find a harsh word to say about Moore’s efforts. “Johnny Moore, what can you say? He’s the best goalie I’ve ever seen,” said a smiling Gruarin. “And 1 -think the coach’ll tell you the same thing.” “Bomba (Moore) has been long,” outstanding all year seconded Wright. Recently, Moore was named co-captain of the team (along with Gruarin), an unusual honor for a goaltender. Such notoriety is an indication of the calibre of play that Moore has been performing at throughout the season. It should be noted that the entire Buffalo squad has been running in high gear for most of the season, and they have only since dropped one contest December, that being an 8-4 loss at the hands of powerhouse Union College.

Monday, 14 Feburary 1977 . The Spectrum . Page nine �Swim team conquers Fredonia; close match IRC Stipended PositionsAvailable by Dave Kaplan Spectrum' Staff Writer lay-off caused by the blizzard, the Buffalo 62-51 victory over the Blue Devils of Fredonia Wednesday night at Clark Hall. The winner was in doubt until the last race (the 400 yd. freestyle relay.) which was won by the Bulls’ team of freshmen Jim Harding and Jim Brenner, sophomore Chuck Niles and Junior Cory Ciambella. At the beginning of the final event, the score stood Buffalo 55, Fredonia 51. The winner gets seven points, and the loser gets none, so after 12 events both teams had equal chance of capturing victory. Buffalo coach Bill Sanford realized that the meet would be a close one, so he based his whole strategy on this point. He tried to win as many events as possible while at the same time conserving some power for the final race. He saved three of his best swimmers (Brenner, Niles and Harding) for the all important last relay. Sanford was a little wary about his team’s preparation for the meet that night. The past blizzard not only made it difficult for the swimmers to get to Clark for practice but also posed some problems for the maintenance department which regulates the water level and cleanliness of the pool. Sanford lost a few practices completely that week because he was skeptical of the pool’s sanitation. It appears that germs are excellent swimmers also. Coach Sanford had only the highest praise for Co-captain George .Finelli. Finelli is the sole owner of two school records in the 100 and 200 yard butterfly and is a member of the record shattering 400 yard Medley Relay team. Despite his recent two week absence caused by sickness, Finelli was first in the 200 yard Butterfly in the meet. Sanford may have another champion in Brenner. Just a freshman, he is already the owner of two school records in the 200 and 500 yard freestyle. Brenner was all gold at the meet, taking first in his two favorite events and swimming a leg of the winning 400 yard freestyle relay team. Says Sanford,“He’ll be a winner wherever I put him.” Another all gold swimmer that evening was Chuck Niles. He not only stopped the clocks first in his sprints of 50 and 100 yards freestyle, but was a happy member of the same relay team as Brenner. One of the teams’ best all-around swimmers is Harding. He is good at all strokes which makes him a favorite for the individual medley. This race is 200 yards long, and it requires the swimmer to be adept in the free.back, and breast strokes as well as the butterfly. Wednesday night, Harding proved his worth by winning the 200 individual medley and joined Brenner and Niles in the winner’s circle for the final relay Despite a long swimmers raced to an exciting (for 2 months only) Executive Vice-President tor IRC Executive Vice-President for IRCB Treasurer Pick up applications Monday - & Tuesday Feb. 14 & 15 in the IRC office 347 Richmond Applications are due by Tuesday, Feb. 15th at 5 team. pm in E. 347 Richmond Mike Doran and Tony Frasca both did excellent jobs with Doran winning both the one meter optional and required dives.

In writing this book my major aim has been not only to analyze but to champion that magnificent body of Japanese films for Western audiences so they might discover and experience for themselves the finest national cinema in existence." With these words Joan Mellen begins the foreward to her recent study of the Japanese cinema, The Waves at Genji's Door. This series of Japanese films has been put together in a somewhat similar evangelistic spirit, in the belief that Japanese movies, once discovered, can be profoundly affecting for the Western viewer. What is special and unique in the Japanese cinema that inspires a passionate loyalty in its devotees? In 1961, in The Japanese Film, the first history of the Japanese cinema in English, Joseph Anderson and Donald Richie wrote, "One of the last film industries to create a national style, the Japanese is now one of the last to retain it." Joan Mellen attempts to isolate this national style in its historical dimension: "... the Japanese film has accomplished a re-creation and reflection of an entire national past : th uncommon trauma of a brilliance .. . Above all, it has cap' mem a has so culture in transition. No other n< ■ unhesitatingly and so feelingly ret ,C the historical tensions of the society it describes. And in no other country has film become the premier expression of a nation's cultural life. The consistent level of Japan's film art and its agonizingly honest quest for new values and mores, at once true to the national identity and free of its afflictions, have created in Japan a socially conscious cinema of the highest aesthetic attainment." The film-makers of Japan have inherited a cultural tradition which is over ten centuries old, a tradition with a strong visual orientation, and they have simultaneously inherited political and economic institutions which are still in their infancy, open to radical questioning and doubt. By Gertrude Stein's criteria, as the United States is the oldest country in the world, since it has been in the twentieth century longest, Japan is the youngest, as young as the cinema we might say. , B "Record of a Living Being" or "I Live in Fear" (Ikimono no Kurouku), films.

In 1966 he was invited by Harvard University to attend its International Seminar.

In 1969 he went to 12 European countries, showing his films in various museums, film archives, and universities. He has recently published a book of essays, scope, collected international on in contemporary art and film in Japan entitled Geijutsu To Higeijutsu No Aida (Between Arts and Non-Arts). In 1972 and 1973 Iimura was invited to Berlin as an artist-in-residence on the German Academy Exchange program. He is currently teaching at Kent State University.

At the Academy, for instance, limura had the moon wander across the video-screen for 15 minutes while a metronome beats the time, or he showed a ten minute segment of a digital clock running down ten minutes, the voice of the telephone time counting off the ten minutes. He is concerned with the experience of precise processes such as we encounter every day in our lives today. They have their necessary function and their beauty. Precision becomes exhilirating and liberating. One can rarely see and experience this better than in, or rather with, limura's films. At the Paramedia Gallery, limura has now created a cinematic environment in which he showed new films last weekend which had been reduced to simple concrete sequences of sign and symbols. Through this reduction to basic structures and to the elementary technological foundations of film and sound, limura makes it possible anybody who identifies with the for the observer to expierience the ideology of the technological age precise interplay of optical and acoustical impulses. The films are built from simple structural elements displaying the rhythms of visual series and of the passing of time; light and dark patterns alternating in precise timing, series of figures and symbols additions and subtractions of symbols in linear series all revealed by the medium of film to be children of time. The exact rhythm of the impulses, however, becomes visible only in the sketched film concepts or in the film strips which have been displayed throughout the gallery and on the walls as means of controlling the process. They are optical proof, so to speak, of the laws which become just vaguely recognizable in the course of a film, simply because human perception is not as precise as the equipment and registers of technology. This experience may be pleasant or unpleasant we undergo it every day without being aware of it. limura films do not live in the ivory tower. In their very structure they are public and universal. What does this have to do with art?limura's work follows the traditions of constructivism, of rational and structural assemblies, limura appears to be one of the most clear-thinking representatives of this art with a special talent for reducing things to their basic elementary forms. — — — "Of the new foreign work I saw (at the London Festival of Avantgarde Film, 1973), that of Taka limura interested me most a complete show of films mostly dealing with the problems of durational experience in relationship to counting and number.

This indicates how the man who adapted the word into Japanese regarded movies originally. In English, we say "motion picture" which literally means picture with motion. I prefer the word "eiga; reflected picture" to "motion picture." It is because I am concerned in my films with "reflected picture" that I call them "reflected cinema" rather than "motion picture." "Reflected picture" emphasizes a state not a motion a state where a picture is reflected through not a picture which moves. In such a state, light motion could be involved since it covers all situations including motion and non-motion: still. Once when I talked on "reflected picture," a man in the audience asked me whether "reflected picture" meant a passive rather than an active one. I said that the term means neither passive nor active but a state where both are combined like a wave. You cannot separate a passive wave from an active wave. I recall a lantern which I saw at a village festival in Japan in my childhood. A lantern covered with screens on which shadows of paper fishes revolved. It was the first time ,1 saw a "movie." In fact, the word "reflected picture," I believe, is deeply rooted in the traditional shadow-picture which had (and has) existed in the East long before movies were invented. In Chinese, "movie" is literally called "electric shadow picture." That explains where movies came from for them. But in Japan, the term, "reflected picture" seems to put more emphasis on a state. My works are a state where film is reflected — �■' J » k Fifteen Japanese Features in 16 MM Screened for course 414Y of the Center for Media Study 7:00 PM Free 150 Farber Hall January 20 NEW TALES OF THE TAIRA CLAN (Shin Heike Monogatari), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1955. Color, 120 min. One of the few great historical epics produced in the medium of motion pictures. New Tales of the Taira Clan is about one of the great dynastic changes in Japanese the usurpation of the nobility's power by the history and it is also a warrior class in the 12th century in outline the story is the parable of all revolutions same as one Fidel Castro likes to tell about Simon Bolivar. - — — January 27 TOKYO STORY (Tokyo Monogatari), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1953. B&W, 134 min. "Tokyo Story is a calm-surfaced tale of an aging provincial couple visiting their mildly ingrate children in Tokyo. By. shunning plot, as usual, Ozu gives dense energy to story. The picture is Lear with the sting of rage drawn but without any feeling or extremity lost. The couple sense that the course of their past is being put to the test, and they find it wanting. Ozu always catches his characters at moments when they are driven to their limits. Life is difficult for most people, he says, and most people make a fair job of it." —Penelope Gilliatt, The New Yorker February 3 THE LOYAL 47 RONIN OF THE GENROKU ERA I (Genroku Chushingura I), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1941. B&W, 116 min. Chushingura, literally "A Treasure of Loyal Hearts", the story of Lord Asano's 47 loyal samurai retainers who give up their lives to avenge him, is Japan's most popular samurai legend. According to Joseph Anderson and Donald Richie, it has been filmed once or twice a year consistently from 1913 through the 1950's. But of all these retellings, Kenji Mizoguchi's unconventional two-part version is certainly the most profound, if not the most spectacular or the definitive Chushingura. February 10 THE LOYAL 47 RONIN OF THE GENROKU ERA II (Genroki Chushingura II), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1942. B&W, 125 min. (See above description). February 24 STORY OF LAST THE THE CHRYSANTHEMUMS (Zangiku Monogatari), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1939. B&W, 148 min. Mizoguchi once said he made The 47 Ronin during the war "so J wouldn't have to make anything else." At about the same time (1939—1942), he also made a number of films about the lives of actors set during the Meiji Era (1868—1911), since such costume dramas would appear politically innocuous. Yet, for Joan Mellen, The Story of the Last Chrysanthemums is still "one of the most brilliant satires on the Japanese family system," which "can be seen as an outright defiance of the militarists' advocacy of the family as an institution." The film's protagonist is an oyama in the Kabuki Theater, a male actor specializing in female roles, who rejects a woman who has supported him for many years, both materially and spiritually, in order to please his insensitive, snobbish family. March 3 THE HARP OF BURMA (Biruma no Tategoto), directed by Kon Ichikawa, 1956. B&W, 116 min. 'I A fascinating requiem for World War II, The Harp of Burma is self-consciously pacifist and Buddhist, but very similar in feeling to many Japanese wartime movies celebrating the martial spirit. The hero is private Mizushima, who decides to stay on in Burma after the war in order to devote the rest of his life to burying the war dead as a personal expiation for all the sins of war. The Harp of Burma won the San Giorgio Prize at the 1956 Venice Film Festival as the film which best shows "man's capacity to live one with another." Profound or bathetic, it is a real triumph of style; the black and white cinematography is perfectly modulated, and the consistently striking. are compositions March 10 RED-LIGHT DISTRICT (Or: Street of Shame, Akasen Chitai), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1956. B&W, 85 min. Kenji Mizoguchi's last film, Red-Light District, is also his political testament. It has not been as highly regarded as his period dramas, which suggests only /that Mizoguchi's vision is more acceptable when it is enshrouded in mists and painterly atmospheric effects, when its relevance to present realities is open to interpretation and misinterpretation. It is about five women who are prostitutes* and its position on their work is unequivocal and pessimistic: that the prostitution of women is not a "problem" that can be "solved" within the framework of a social system that is based on exploitation. March 17 EQUINOX FLOWER (Higanbana), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1958. Color, 118 min. In his first color film, Ozu shows a particular sympathy for the younger generation; the daughter Setsuko who rejects an arranged match to marry for love is vindicated, finally winning even her father's approval. Equinox Flower is the subject of a long and fascinating analysis by Edward Branigan of the articulations of space in Ozu's mise-en-scene, published in Screen, summer 1976. March 24 THE AUTUMN OF THE KOHAYAQAWA FAMILY (Or: End of Summer, Kohayagawake no Aki), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1961. Color, 103 min. "Of the films by Yasujiro Ozu that I have seen, (it) is the best, the most subtle, the most ambitious and the most successful in achieving the blend of comic insight and tragic vision that informs this director's cinema. It is a late work (Ozu died in 1963, at the age of 60) and it tells several stories at once, touching upon a broad range of experience. It has a quality of luminous intelligence exceptional even in a career for which such intelligence was generally the controlling point of view." —Roger Greenspun, The New York Times March 31 OF SHINJUKU DIARY BURGLAR A (Shinjuku Dorobo Nikki), directed by Nagisa Oshima, 1968. B&W, 94 min. Perhaps it is best to let the distributor speak for this film: "Using a free, modern cinematic style, Oshima focuses on the seething labyrinth of Shinjuku, the Greenwich Village of Tokyo, with its social unrest and upheavals. A young couple, in a bizarre search for sexual explores psychoanalysis, voyeurism, ecstacy, sex manuals, shoplifting and rape to find it, while Shinjuku in violent student riots amid the tensions between old rituals and new ideas." explodes �Ten Japanese Features in 16 MM Buffalo and Erie County Public Library 8:00 PM February 1 THE LOWER DEPTHS (Donzoko), directed by Akira Kurosawa, 1957.

ASSASSINATION Shinoda makes historical films without heroes or heroic causes, with a sense of irony that is sometimes called "nihilist." Assassination is set in the period of political turmoil and confusion preceding the Meiji Restoration of 1868, Japan's "revolution from above" that ended the feudal era of the.Tokugawa Shogunate. It follows the career of Hachiro Kiyokawa, a real historical "A xenophobe ronin" one Western historian has figure called him who supported the anti-Tokugawa forces in order to repel the invasion of foreigners. His side won; he and his cause lost. But the broad historical ironies are only the starting point for the confusions and complications in Shinoda's tale. - ". . . an apparently literal film version of the Gorky play though-the time is the 18th century and the place Edo, now Tokyo.

In 17th century Japan, the penalty for adultery was crucifixion, one of the few vestiges of Christian influence retained after the Western religion was banned at thfe beginning of the century. Mizoguchi's crucified lovers are Osan, the wife of a greedy scroll-maker, and Mohei, the scroll-maker's most talented artisan. In this film, set in a society of merchants and commoners, Mizoguchi demonstrates his mastery of the jidai-geki, the Japanese period film, which is not simply analogous to the American western or invariably dominated by blustering samurai and bloody swordfights. "... a film that even today remains at the very forefront of experimentation in the relations of sound and image." -Noel Burch, Theory of Film Practice — April 28 THE BAD SLEEP WELL Voku Nemuru), directed by (Warui Yatsu Hodo Akira Kurosawa, 1960.

B&W, Cinemascope, 143 min. Another Kuros.awa adaptation of a Western literary source but in this instance not a classic: the mystery thriller King's Ransom by Ed McBain (a pseudonym for Evan Hunter). Kurosawa tells the story of a kidnapping from a number of consecutive viewpoints, shifting from that of a victim's (or rather: the intended victim's) father who must pay the ransom the delivery of the ransom is a stunning action sequence filmed on an to that of express train in real time with nine cameras the police detectives to that of the kidnapper, who is himself also a victim. High and Low is-melodrama, but it is melodrama in which neither good nor evil are fixed and immutable. — — May 12 ... March 8 RECORD OF A LIVING BEING (Or; I Live in Fear, Ikimono no Kirouki), directed by Akiro Kurosawa, 1955. B&W, 104 min. Kurosawa's Record of a Living Being was made during the period of U.S. hydrogen bomb tests at Bikini when fears of radioactive fallout and of the devastating consequences of a nuclear war were especially acute in Japan. A conversation with a friend, the film's composer Fumi Hayasaka, then fatally ill, about the Bikini tests inspired Kurosawa's decision "to make a satire on the H-bomb." But Kurosawa and his collaborators eventually turned their satire into a tragedy: the story of a man whose attempt to make a new life is thwarted by his complacent family. Toshiro. Mifune plays a factory owner who becomes obsessed with the fear of another nuclear attack on Japan. He decides to sell all his possessions, including the factory, and move his family to a farm, in the wilds of Brazil. But his children are outraged by the plan and conspire to have him judged mentally incompetent. March 15 THE LIFE OF OHARU (Or: The Life of a Woman by Saikaku, Saikaku Ichidai Onna), directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, 1952. B&W, 133 min. Mizoguchi film: a beautifully The archetypal photographed and choreographed study of oppression in feudal Japan, Thus Sight and Sound-. "The first of Kenji chronicling the Mizoguchi's late masterpieces, persecutions of a woman in 17th and 18th century Japan. Probably the most powerful of all the director’s feminist protests, combining picaresque plot with magisterial mise-en-scene." It was also Mizoguchi's own favorite among his films, and in this instance a director's opinion is far from idiosyncratic. February 15 SAMUARI SPY (Or: Sarutobi, Iban Sarutobi Sasuke), directed by Masahiro Shinoda, 1965. B&W, Cinemascope, flOmin. March 22 A FULL LIFE (Mitasareta Seikatsu), directed Susumu Hani, 1962. B&W, Cinemascope, 108 min. One of the best of the many Japanese films based on the legends about the ninjutsuzukai, the black-cfad "magician spies" who appeared in the wake of the battles that led to the establishment of the Tokugawa Shogunate in 1600. Samurai Spy is set in 1614, and the spy for a minor clan caught in the hero Sarutobi rivalries between the Tokugawas and the Toyotomis. Beyond that the development of the play fnay not be clear, but the images always are. Shinoda is a brilliant visual stylist; his critics call it "visual excess," his partisans "visual flair." Like Shinoda and Oshima, Susumu Hani belongs to the "new wave" generation of Japanese film-makers who emerged in the late fifties and early sixties. Hani distinguished himself with his semi-documentary approach, using non-professional actors and a hand-held camera, and his feminist themes. A Full Life "is perhaps the most revolutionary film made up to that time in Japan about a contemporary women's quest for idependence." —Joan Mellen February 22 March 29 ODD OBSESSION (Or: The Key, Kagi), directed by Kon Ichikawa, 1959. Color, 107 min. PAGES FROM A DIARY OF MADNESS (Or: A Page of Madness, Kurutta Ippeiji), directed by Teinosuke Kinugasa, 1926. B&W, Silent, 60 min. "Made in 1926, this visually extraordinary, surrealist film is set in an asylum, and concerns an old seaman secretly trying to organize the escape of his mad wife . . . Although Kinugasa might . . . have seen Caligari, The Last Laugh . . . and the Gance of La Roue, his use of abstract imagery is more radical and innovatory. The film culminates in several hallucinatory sequences built up from layers of superimpositions, in which we seem to be inside the minds of the patients . . . ". . . Pages from a Diary of Madness was understandably a commercial failure on its original release. Apparently, it lay unnoticed for over forty years until Kinugasa discovered a copy in his garden storeroom. Certainly, this discovery is a major event, confirming that the Japanese 1920's is yet another goldmine waiting to be opened up." —John Gillett, Sight and Sound, 1973. PEASANTS OF THE SECOND FORTRESS (Sanrizuka: Daini Toride no Hitobito), directed by Shinsuke Ogawa, 1971. B&W, 143 min. Peasants of the Second Fortress is the fourth in a series of six films Shinsuke Ogawa made over a five-year period from 1968 to 1973 documenting the struggle of the against tenant farmers around Sanrizuka construction of a new international airport on the land where they had lived and farmed for generations. "Ogawa completely identified himself with this struggle His crew stayed at Sanrizuka, living exactly as did the peasants, completely trusted by the participants , . . Thus the Sanrizuka films differ from most traditional documentaries. They were made with the collaboration of farmers who were shown rushes and castigated Ogawa when they felt he had directed a scene without feeling." —Joan Mellen Free March 1 THERE WAS A FATHER (Chichi Ariki), directed by Yasujiro Ozu, 1942. B&W, 94 min. Yasujiro Ozu might be regarded as the Ozzie Nelson of Japan; in a career spanning over 30 years and 53 films, his single concern has been the fortunes of the Japanese family. However, the emotional range of the Japanese domestic drama, the shomin-gekJ, is much greater than that of the American situation comedy, and Ozu has raised the shomin-geki to the level of the highest art. Made during the Second World War, There Was a Father concerns the struggles of a widower to raise his son after being forced to abandon his teaching profession. A black comedy about an aging husband's attempts restore his sexual potency, based on Junichiro Tanizaki's novel The Key. When the film first appeared in the West in the early sixties, most reviewers failed to get the joke and produced phrases such as "a cold, dispassionate study of the sexual perversions of an aging man" or "if (Ichikawa's) style has an almost clinical detachment, it is subtly fervent, each shot handled naturalistically and yet witft the stylized balance of Japanese prints." to April 12 THE CEREMONY (Gishiki), directed by Nagisa Oshima, 1971. Color, Cinemascope, 122 min. "The fluctuating fortunes of a once powerful dynasty and the economic 'miracle' of Japan's post-war expansion charted through a succession of hieratic rituals. Blackly humorous, and grotesquely tragic, Oshima's static-masterpiece dynamically expresses the conflict between traditional forms and actual feelings." —Sight and Sound The Ceremony made an unscheduled appearance at this year's New York Film Festival when Oshima's latest film The Realm of the Senses was confiscated by U.S. Customs after a press screening. , �Four Japanese Films in 35 MM 4JUAB Filin Committee, Feb. 17—20 Norton Conference Theater Continuous Admission charge. screenings Call 831*3541 for times.

Color, Cinemascope, 95 min. February 20 SWORD OF VENGEANCE I (Kozure Okami I), directed by Kenji MisUmi, . 1972. Color, Cinemascope, 83 min. One of the first and best of the jakuza gangster films, Pale Flower was also the first major film of Masahiro Shinoda, who later won fame in the West with Double Suicide and The Scandalous Adventures of Buraikin. In Japan, Pale Flower, along with Nagisa Oshima's first films, was regarded as the manifesto of the new generation of film directors a cry of revolt against old themes and old styles, comparable to Godard's Breathless in France. There are even similarities in story: Pale Flower is the story of Muraki, a gangster who upon his release from prison finds himself torn between duty to the clan which requires him to carry out another murder and a consuming love for Saeko, a "poor little rich girl" whose only passions are gambling, drugs and fast cars. Zatoichi, invariably played by Shijtaro Katsu, is the hero of the most popular samurai film series of the twenty-six Zatoichi features have sixties and seventies although, produced the last twelve years in been perhaps because, a more unlikely swordfighter could not be imagined. First of all, he is not a samurai he is a masseur and a lowlier profession could not be found in feudal Japan. Furthermore, he is blind, yet his humble cane sword is more than a match for any dozen samurai. In this 1970 film, directed by Kenji Misumi, the master of the post-Kurosawa samurai film, Katsu is matched against Tatsuya Nakadai, another great samurai star known best in the U.S. for Harakiri, Yojimbo and Sword of Doom, who plays the jealous husband of a woman Zatoichi had rescued from a merchant. But before their final duel, they first must decimate the samurai of Lord Horakura, a blind daimyo who is determined to kill Zatoichi because he refused to accept an excessive fee for his services as a masseur. "Although Zatoichi's feats of swordplay would be wondrous for a man with 20-20 vision, Katsu, an eloquent mime, makes this seemingly incredible character amazingly convincing." —Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times a wanderer "Zatoichi is a man of sentiment 'out for the easy buck if it comes his way and philosophical if it doesn't. He longs for peace and the sweet smells and sounds of nature, but his super-senses and they are fantastic tell him of the corruption and evil that surround him and he must respond. And the sight of him doing in four, six and even a dozen armed men is alone worth the price of admission." —Judith Crist, New Yorker There are now six Sword of Vengeance films, and Tomisaburo Wakayama's Ogami seems destined to replace Katsu's Zatoichi as Japan's most popular samurai hero, but the sequels have not yet matched the brilliance of the first. Itto Ogami is the Lord High Executioner for the TokugawaShogunate until the intrigues of the Vagyu clan lead to the murder of his wife and turn the Tokugawas against him. As the result of a frame-up by the Vagyus, the shogun orders Ogami to perform seppuku (harakiri), but refusing to accept this injust fate, Ogami hits the road with his infant son in an armored baby-carriage. Like Yojimbo, he becomes a samurai turned capitalist, selling his sword to the highest bidder, but always ready to betray his employer if the interests of justice demand it. "What really matters is the dazzling way in which director Kenji Misumi stages Wakayama's spectacular swordplay, investing slaughter with the elegance of a dance ritual and creating images of striking beauty out of pain and chaos. Life is hell in Sword of Vengeance yet the film itself, as a work of art, is exultant." —Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times — February 18 THREE OUTLAW SAMURAI (Sambiki no Samurai), directed by Hideo Gosha, 1964. B&W, 94 min. Yojimbo, Three Outlaw transposed into a compelling Samurai could easily be American-style western. The three samurai of the title come to the aid of a band of poor farmers who had kidnapped the daughter of a local magistrate to compel him to accept their petition for lower taxes. The magistrate retaliates by hiring a band of mercenary samurai to kidnap one of the farmers' daughters. The ensuing plot is complicated but satisfying, involving blackmail, rape, murder and sadism, and calling to mind Like Seven Samurai and both Seven Samurai and Rio Bravo. — — : ... ... — — — Four Japanese Films in 35 MM Center for Media Study and Council on International Studies Norton Conference Theater 8:00 PM Free April 19 THE SILENCE (Chimrnoku), directed by Masahiro Shinoda, 1971.

Color, Cinemascope, 95 min. At the beginning of the 17th century, the Tokugawa began a ruthless campaign to stamp out the Christian religion in Japan where it had taken deep roots since the arrival of the first Portuguese Jesuit mission3ries in the 1540's, particularly on the poor, backward southern island of Kyushu. In 1612 Christianity was Japanese cinema is rarely Sexuality in the uncomplicated. If it's not impotence on the one hand, it's incest on the other. And thus the Odd Affinity between mother and son in Shindo's film is not so odd as it might appear to us. Nor, for that matter, is the cure proposed to the son by his fiancee and his mother's suitor; making love with a prostitute, who bears an uncommon and convenient resemblance to his mother except for those scars on her face where the radiation from the A-bomb hit her. Nor the revelation that this A-bomb victim has turned to prostitution not simply to make a living, but to serve as a living testament to the horrors of nuclear warfare. The coupling of sex and politics is as common in the Japanese cinema as that of sex and violence in the cinema of the West. But if, in the context of the Japanese cinema, Odd Affinity is not as bizarre as it may seem, it is still touchingly peculiar. The Wanderers are three 19th century toseinin, who try to sell themselves out as mercenary samurai in this case, without notable success. But perhaps Joan Mellen's characterization of Ichikawa's three youthful protagonists gives a more accurate sense of the film's tone: "period-film -juvenile delinquents, 'punk yakuza.' They are emphatically not the "nihilist supermen," such, as Vojimbo, Zatoichi or Itto Ogami, who are the bane of Western critics, and The Wanderers is unquestionably not a conventional samurai film. Although it has not been released in the U.S. outside of a few Japanese theaters, it has been championed in the pages of Film Comment by William Johnson, who writes, "The Wanderers is a tour de force that looks simple. In it, the polar opposites that have marked all of Ichikawa's work meet in a consummate point of balance. In it, too, (he) has achieved a remarkable fusion of technical mastery and creative vigor. It is a film to be seen and vividly remembered by anyone who cares about the cinema, people, society, or survival." regime definitively prohibited and all foreign missionaries ordered to leave the country. In the following two decades almost all the foreign missionaries who defied the ban were hunted down and killed; and some 90% of the 300,000 native Christians were tortured to death or forced to apostatize by publicly trampling on small holy images called fumie. This episode of religious persecution, unique in Japanese history, forms the context for Shinoda's The Silence, based on a novel by the Jananese Catholic writer Shusako Endo. The protagonist is a Portuguese missionary, played with Bressonian austerity by Donald Lampson (in Japan, an American playing a Portuguese presents no problem), who is captured by the authorities and subjected to a series of primarily intellectual tortures designed to compel his apostasy. However, the psychological ahd moral issues Shinoda finds irr this priest's dilemma are far'more complex that we might expect, and The Silence builds inexorably to a conclusion of surpassing irony in which the priest is denied even the consolations of martyrdom. — May 3 THE SUN ABOVE DEATH BELOW (Sogeki), directed by Hiromichi Horikawa, 1968. Color, Cinemascope, 87 min. - A -protege of Kurosawa, Hiromichi Horikawa concentrated on contemporary crime melodramas in the 1960's before turning to the bloated all-star World War II epics that became a staple of the Japanese film industry in the early 1970's just as they did in the U.S. None of his films have been released in the U.S. outside of the Japanese theater circuit, but The Sun Above Death Below, at least, deserves an American audience. Its assassin hero is no yakuza tied to a clan by the feudal bonds of loyalty and obligation; he is closer to the alienated and/or psychotic killers who also began to appear in American films at the same time. And as a psychological thriller. The Sun Above Death Below ranks with the best of its American counterparts. — — peasants — " �Japanese Animators on View in Special Show Free and open to the public. I A unique program devoted to Japanese animated s films never before seen in the United States will be ;| screened at the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library I Auditorium on Tuesday, March 1 at 9:30 PM and on Thursday, March 3 at 9:30 PM at 150 Farber Hall, State I University of New York at Buffalo, Main Street Campus. The program consists of thirteen animated .films that I were presented at the International Festival of I Animation at Annecy, France, and features three leading I exponents of the art of animation in Japan: Yasuji I Murata, represented by six films made between 1924 I and 1929; seven works by Noburo Ofuji, one as recent as I 1956; and several others by Wagoro Aral, a former I dentist in a small town, who made animation his hobby I until his work was given professional recognition. This program of pioneer Japanese film animators was .1 organized by Adrienne Mancia, Associate Curator in the I Department of Film at the Museum of Modern Art in *1 New York, with the cooperation of the National Film I Center in Tokyo, the Japan Film Library Council, and I the Japan Society in New York. The program, which I presents an important area in the history and I development of animation, will travel to many I institutions in the United States and Canada after its I New York showing. The first animated Japanese film appeared around I 1913. By the 20's, animation in Japan had become the I "eighth art," subject to two major influences: Japanese ■ prints and American cartoons. Most of the Japanese who the ■ worked in medium were then considered ■ "animalists" and the films they made were frequently ■ peopled by monkeys. Monkeys, in fact, even play a role ■ in "Octopus Bone" made by Murata in 1927, though in ■ 1928, intrigued by mischievous frogs, Murata made the ■ prize-winning "A Frog is a Frog" and in 1929 he created ■ "The Two Worlds" a Japanese version of La Fontaines' ■ "The Cicada and the Ant." In his films Murata worked |- with monkeys, pigs, bats, and ducks; no animal was too I insignificant to be within his artistic domain. Also represented on the program is Noburo Ofuji, who entered silent films in the mid 20's and became an early innovator of cut-out animation, made from patterned Japanese art paper. His films include "The Whale" first made in 1927 and remade twenty-five years later with transparent cellophane sheets. The result was still another innovation, with accolades at Cannes from Pablo Picasso. A later film, "The Phantom Ship," repeated the technique and was awarded a prize at the Venice Film Festival. The works of Wagoro Arai, also part of this series, include two Japanese versions of well-known tales; one of "Jack and the Beanstalk" and the other "The Fantasy of Madame Butterfly." For the most part the subjects of the animated films are universal, with the exception of Zenjiro Yamamoto's "Mountain of Abandon-the-Old," a 1924 adaptation of an authentic Japanese legend. The schedule follows: Six films by Zenjiro Yamamoto, Yasuji Murata, Kenji Masaoka (1924—1930). Silent, ca. 65 min. MOUNTAIN OF ABANDON-THE-OLD. 1924. By Zenjiro Yamamoto. OCTOPUS BONE. 1927.

Synopses MOUNTAIN OF by Yukinobu Toba translated from the Japanese by Alan Poul ABANDON-THE-OLD (Uba SuteYama) Once upon a time, all. the subjects of a certain country were commanded to abandon all old people in the mountains. One young man defied this order and secretly kept his old mother. A messenger from a neighboring country arrived, presenting three difficult riddles. At the same time, the messenger said that if the riddles weren't answered, his country would invade their neighbor. The people were distressed but the young man, drawing on his mother's wisdom, answered correctly and thus the neighboring army was driven away. A GOLDEN FLOWER (Kogane No Hana) From a Japanese folktale. A travelling religious dancer meets a large snake in the mountains. He tricks the snake and escapes. The people of the village kill the snake with the dreaded cigarette smoke. In revenge, fhe spirit of the snake showers gold upon the religious man (this of course is a misunderstanding on the part of the snake who really believed that the man hated material wealth). The moral of this tale is supposed to be that humans are smarter than snakes. SANKICHI MONKEY Totsugeki Tai) (Osaru Sankichi This is an educational cartoon which teaches filial piety and respect for the experience and knowledge of old people. The bold monkey army launches an attack to rout their enemy and wins through their daring. This is actually a propaganda cartoon supporting the efforts of the Japanese army engaged in warfare at the time. OCTOPUS BONE (Tako No Hone) JACK AND THE BEANSTALK (Jack To Mame No Ki) This is a well-known folktale. In Ryugu castle, a princess became very ill and was told that only monkey's liver would cure her. She sent her servant, an Octopus, to Monkey Island to bring back a monkey. All went well until the Octopus let the truth slip out to the monkey and, of course, the monkey ran away. In remorse, the Octopus broke his own bones. And since that time. Octopuses don't have bones. From the well-known children's tale. Silhouette animation FANTASY OF MADAME BUTTERFLY (O-Cho Fujin No Genso) This is silhouette animation based on Puccini's opera. Sung by Tamaki Miura, a famous Japanese singer. THE BUNBUKU TEAPOT (Bunbuku Chagama) PRINCESS KAGUYA (Kaguya Hime) This too, is a famous Japanese folk tale from the Shorin Temple in Tatebayashi about a badger who turns into a teapot. Excerpt. Silhouette animation based on the oldest written Japanese folktale, "Tale of the Bamboocutter." A baby princess is found in a bamboo stalk by the old bamboocutter. She grows up and has many suitors but none pleases her. At the end, she goes to live in the moon. A FROG IS A FROG (Kaeru Wa Kaeru) From a fable by Aesop. A young frog who does imitations of monkeys and cows is scolded by his parents for he should be content to be what he is; a frog. THE TWO WORLDS (Futatsu No Sekai) Based on Aesop's "The Ant and the Grasshopper." On a hot summer's day, the hard working ant family is contrasted with the frivolous butterflies and grasshoppers. The moral of this tale is: he who sings in the summer will cry in the winter. THE MONKEY'S ISLAND (Sam Ga Shima) A certain tropical island is a monkey's paradise. Other monkeys arrive on the island, disturb the inhabitants and there is a big fuss. But in the end, peace is regained. THE WHALE (Kujiri) Color. Three shipwrecked sailors and one woman ride on the back of a large whale. The men fight over the woman and the angered whale throws them back into the sea. The woman remains on the whale. THE PHANTOM SHIP (Yurei Sen) In the East China Sea a phantom ship frightens the local seamen. What is the story behind the phantom ship? Once upon a time, noblemen on this ship were attacked by pirates who killed them all and plundered the ship. The pirates, however, fought among themselves and eventually were destroyed by the vengeful spirits of the noblemen. In the end, only ghosts were left on the ship. CiirVNr\from nnuies Naoki Togawa (courtesy of the Cinematheque Quebecoise) and from the National Film Center (Tokyo) In the history of Japanese animation film, three pioneers appeared in its first stage around 1916.* They are Shimokawa, Kouchi, and Kitayama, thought by some to have been influenced by foreign animated films such as those made by Emile Cohl. Oten Shimokawa was a cartoonist who attempted his first film by shooting drawings sketched on a blackboard. The parts that were to move were erased and retouched for the frame-by-frame technique. This method was too troublesome and he changed to printed backgrounds. Sumikazu Kouchi was an illustrator for children's books and magazines. As with Shimokawa, his films are just a development of his comic strips. Seitaro Kitayama was originally a title writer for silent films. His films illustrated many popular traditional folktales of Japan including Momotaro (Beach Boy), Saru Kani Kassen (A Crab Takes Revenge Upon A Monkey). His work was in such demand that he sometimes produced six films per year. Zenjiro Yamamoto began studying at the age of sixteen under Kitayama. Before he made films independently, he did his earliest films for government ministeries. Government agencies commissioned many films in the early days since they were convinced of the didactic power in film. Many of the animators who produced independently were hurt financially because their films were pirated and cheap versions were put on the market. Early animation was more or less a household industry with many members of the family helping out. Films were even developed in the bathtub. More professional and dedicated animation artists appeared in the Twenties. Yasuji Murata filmed many folktales such as Octopus Bone and A Frog is a Frog. He began in 1927 and produced more than thirty cartoons until 1935. Kenji Masaoka, who had an art education, also filmed folktales such as Palace in the Sea (1927), A Wrecked Ship Story (1928). He continued to produce cartoons for children until 1941 when his studio was absorbed by a larger company. By the early Thirties, sound films emerged in Japan (sound films were produced in 1931 and the first animated sound films were made in 1932) and the new technical problems could only be solved by larger companies. The J.O. Cartoon Studio used a pre-recording produced system and the first lip-synchronized cartoon in Japan with Tokkyu Kantai (Express Fleet). Kon Ichikawa was once an animation director in this studio and produced folktale cartoons such as Kachi-Kachi Yama in 1936. Other newcomers of this period are Kosei Seo and Wagoro Arai. Seo was an assistant to Masaoka. He formed his own production company in 1934 which was eventually absorbed by a short film production studio, Geijutsu Eigasha. Wagoro Arai was a dentist who made animation films as a hobby until his work was judged to be of professional quality. Most of his productions use silhouette animation such as Jack and the Beanstalk and Fantasy of Madame Butterfly. During World War II, there' were two active productions in the animation field, the Seo unit and the Masaoka unit, each of which was a section in a larger company. They were obliged to adapt traditional popular stories to patriotic themes which did nothing to advance techniques and styles. After tb. war, animated films flourished and young animators appeared. Television also encouraged the making of animated films. Among the many artists working today, the most prestigious is probably Yoji Kuri. *Max Tessier in the following essay gives the date as as 1913. early Con tinned �Videotapes oburo Ofuji (1900-1961) Max Tessier in his introduction to the retrospective of Japanese animation presented by the International Festival Japanese Animated Films held at Annecy, France in 1975. innovator of cut-out animation, Noburo i's Chiyogami films of the mid-20's, made from srned Japanese "art paper," were widely seen ,ih n and exported to the O.S.S.R. and France. In aking The.Whale (the silent version was shot in black white in 1927), Ofuji used coloured transparent iphane sheets; the result was another innovation and lades at Cannes from Pablo Picasso. A later film, Phantom Ship (1956), repeated the technique and iuccess this time at the Venice Film Festival, he tradition of transparency runs deeply in oriental iow theatre. Highly developed in Java by the 16th ury, the Wayang Theatre used puppets made of ral hides (goat, deer or calf), treated so as to become sparent, and stained with vegetable dyes. In China, ancient figures of translucent bone or horn gave way heepskin ip the south and, in the north, skin from donkey's belly; painted in bright colours, they "glow ugh the screen like sunlit stained glass." 1 he ready concept of leather as transparent is tling to Westerners, but quite familiar in the East. It iteresting to note that the word "Nang" which means ner, is the word by which the cinema is known today by Ian Birnie of the Art Gallery of "hailand. 2 Zenjiro Mountain of Abandon-The-Old" by Yamamoto/1924, is the only one to be directly inspired by an old Japanese legend often adapted for the screen, notably by Kinoshita in his famous "Ballad of ,n early Narayama” (1958). Then came the most original of these veterans, Noburo Ofuji, whose efforts revealed that genuine Japanese subjects could be treated in a more sophisticated manner than black and white sketching: "Kogane no Hana" ("A Golden Flower"/1930) marks the triumph of "Chiyogami" (typically Japanese colored elements) by combining this technique with cut traditional drawings. But Ofuji's greatest success remains the famous "Kujira" ("The Whale"/1927) of which he made a new color version on cells in 1953. In his films, we find a more skillful technique, fresher ideas and funnier gags than in his colleagues' and he even renewed in "Numa no Taisho" ("A General of the — ... onto he Japanese have for years been experts at digesting, ipposing. Western influences in the field of animated s just as anywhere else. Though the first steps came er late (1913 is the official year of the first Japanese nated film made by Seitaro Kitayama), such pioneers (enjiro Yamamoto, Kenji Masaoka or Vasuji Murata t be credited for ennobling Japan's "eighth art" as as the Twenties. We might find the designs rather titive and the animation too elementary, but we t trace two major influences: that of the popular ts of the Meiji era and that of the American cartoons ch invaded Japan at the time in the wake of lywood-made movies. Those animators can be rred to as "animalists" since most of their films are pled with round-eyed monkeys ("Monkey's Island," Kenji Masaoka/1930, "Octopus Bone," by Yasuji ata/1927, where monkeys play nasty tricks on the jpus), mischievous frogs ("A Frog is a Frog," by ata/1928) or smart weasels ("A Mysterious Kettle," Masaoka/1928), which are all connected with an nal symbolism quite familiar to the Japanese, /vever, the Western influence can be traced not only :he graphic style which sometimes copies "Merry odies" purely and simply, as is the case in "Monkey kichi" by Kosei Seo/1935 but also in the very )iration of the tales, especially in "The Two Worlds" trata/1929) which is but an old Japanese adaptation _a Fontaine's "The Grasshopper and the Ant." "The / — Swamps "/1933). This panorama of Japanese animation wouldn't be complete if we failed to mention Wagoro Arai's pretty shadow-shows, visibly inspired by German techniques, notably by Lotte Reiniger, though he didn’t really renew them; however, "Jack and the Beanstalk" (1938, from a tale by Andersen) and "Fantasy of Madame Butterfly" (1940) confirmed Arai's maStery in that field as in "The Princess Kaguya" (1940), he delicately contrasted dark and dim shadows, using animation with great virtuosity. If we want to draw long-term conclusions, we have to admit that as early as the Twenties and Thirties the major trends of contemporary animation had already emerged: an obvious influence by Western techniques (U.S.A., France, Germany) and essentially, which might be more unfortunate, the "exotic" inspiration by European tales. That trend will bring about in the Sixties the industrialization of the cartoon with Taiji Yabushita's "Disneyan" features at Toei like "Tom Thumb," "The Orphan" or "Andersen's Tales," or even with Eiichi Yamamoto's artistically more ambitious works, "Cleopatra" or "Belladonna." So let us pay a tribute to Ofuji for his achievement: an inspiration drawn from national popular sources and an original animation technique. May we add that considering the enormous quantity of films lost or destroyed since the war (and that also applies to fields other than animation), the panorama of films presented is far from being partial or insufficient: it discloses on the contrary the whole range of the Japanese "eighth art": this fan keeps bringing us a refreshing breeze. — 1 0live Cook, Movement in Two Dimensions, Hutchinson and Co.

Even — — — News analysis Carey’s budget won’t meet SUNYneeds Increased debt service costs interest payments on bonded state debts like those incurred in borrowing money for construction are a major cause for the increase. These costs, coupled with the drop in enrollment and the resulting decrease in tuition revenues, have led to a decrease in income offset (monies generated to pay operating expenses), which forces the state to allocate its own resources to make the necessary payments. There is a planned increase in the Medical and Dental schools’ tuition rate which has been contemplated for the past several years by the SUNY Trustees and the State Board of Regents, mainly as an effort to bring parity to the tuition rates charged at the private schools and the state supported institutions. The Carey budget does make allowances for certain unavoidable price hikes in fuel and utilities, general price adjustments, authorized salary increments, new building openings, and other contractual obligations. Small funding’increases were also requested for some of the emerging campuses and institutions “where analysis of the workload clearly justified improved funding.” — Sixties liberalism In a 1966 ruling on Fanny Hill the Supreme Court had defined a pornographic work as one “utterly without redeeming social value.” This was a definition so liberal that it allowed porn producers to get away with most anything. But the 1973 ruling sought to stem this tide. Chief Justice Warren Burger established three criteria for determining obscenity. He declared that a work must be found to appeal to the “prurient interest,” and depict sexual conduct in “a patently offensive way.” To replace the abused “utterly without redeeming social value” phrase, Burger wrote that each work must “as a whole, lack serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.” The majority opinion was written by Burger and supported by three fellow Nixon appointees, along with Justice Byron White. It stated that only material which is sexually oriented could be judged obscene. Burger’s view of what constitutes sexual conduct was a rather broad one. It included “lewd exhibition of the genitals,” , — Re-evaluation These increases will amount to $17.3 million, most ol which will be made up by a $15.7 million reduction in authorized staff and program support. In an effort to cause as little damage as possible with these planned reductions, the budget is pressuring campus administrators to “re-evaluate programs and seek increases in productivity to preserve quality performance.” The budgetary message explained that the context in which the SUNY budget has been reviewed is one of “acute fiscal austerity” for the state and its localities, necessitating stabilization of the SUNY budget. This action is clearly consistent with the dual need of balancing the state budget in a responsible fashion, while attempting to adhere to national programatic norms. The budgetary message points to a 1973-74 figure in explaining its commitment to higher education. At that time, state and local support for higher education in New York (excluding capital outlays and tuition) was $67 per capita, well exceeding the national average. Figures for the same period show that state support for students at University centers, colleges and Agricultural and Technical schools was $3572, $2283, and $1876 respectively. These figures are substantially higher than the national averages, indicating the then heavy —continued on page 2— Term extended to make up snow days President Robert Ketter has officially announced how the University will make up the lost class days due to the storm.

Sub Board Rubella screening tests are being offered at low prices Sub Board’s Health Care Division is offering low Rubella-screening . tests, for University community members in the Michael Hall basement. The screening program has been in operation since the beginning of last semester, but turnout has been lower than expected. The test is available at a nominal fee of SI for faculty, staff and students. Anyone else desiring the test must pay S10. It is subsidized by the Student Association mandatory activity fee. Rubella is an infectious disease which, according to Health Care Division Director Bob Olds, can be transmitted just like a common cold. It is usually harmless to those who contract it, but it poses danger for a pregnant woman's child. The disease is transmitted by the mother tb the fetus, which may subsequently suffer congenital deformities. Rubella is most dangerous when the expecting mother contracts it within the first four months of pregnancy, cost Not during pregnancy The test is given by Medical Technology Department students under supervision of a commitment to education in New York State. This year’s budget message concedes that the gap between the state support and the national average has narrowed, indicating that the heavy commitment may be lessening. Net impact The net impact of the reduction in staff funding witl be the elimination of about 678 positions throughout SUNY. The total (or gross) reduction in staffing amounts to 873 positions, of which over two-thirds are already vacant as a result of a hiring freeze over the past twenty months. These proposed staff reductions added to reductions in the work year of many employees from 12 to 10 months will yield estimated savings of $7 million. The budget also calls for an addition of 195 positions on the SUNY campuses to help handle “specific enrollment increases (in the few programs scheduled for increases), and program development needs to meet minimum work )oad conditions.” Most of the new positions are for the Stony Brook Hospital staff buildup and the opening of new buildings at SUC Purchase. The estimated cost of the new positions is $1.8 million, making the overall savings in staff reductions $5.2 million next year. While this University is in line for a SI.45 million increase, the bulk of the increase will come in the area of unavoidable costs, such as fuel allocations and not-to-be-repeated moving expenses.

Pueblo woman chalk nges marriage laws (CPS) In an attempt to preserve the rights of her Navajo Indian husband and their children, a Santa Clara Pueblo Indian woman has challenged her tribe’s laws charging that they discriminate against a spouse in an intermarriage by bringing the issue to the federal courts. /The case could result in widespread destruction of uncounted Indian religious and cultural practices as well as unwanted intrusion by the federal courts into Indian affairs, Indian attorneys claim.

The issue was first challenged at a federal appellate court, the !.<>s Angeles Times reported, which ruled in favor of the Martinez’s on grounds that the tribal law violated the federal Indian Civil Rights Act of 1968. Because the precedent set by their case could potentially disrupt many other Indian nations’ tribal laws which similarly seek to preserve a tribe s culture and limited land and economic resources by controlling tribal membership, lawyers for a number of tribes have contested the appellate court’s ruling.

But to work fo; llie State Dept., it looks like you have to be equipped with some brains, of at least a large dose of craftiness. In early January, the State Dept, released detailed reports on human rights conditions abroad at the request of the House International Relations Committee, and found that Argentina, Haiti.

State Dept.^officials were pressed with this question: in light of their past shenanigans, who would believe the figures? So, in an apparent attempt to legitimize the reports, the State Dept, frequently quoted from the work of Amnesty International, renowned watchdog tor the world’s political prisoners. "We were basically used by the State Dept, for two reasons. One. they felt quotes from us would have a kind of window-dressing effect on their findings. Also, they needed figures because they’ve done little investigation of their own in this area,” said Larry Cox of Amnesty International. � �Express yourself Are you missing a good time?

Publishers in turn blame increasing textbook prices on rising labor and paper costs. Although the textbook-makers are reluctant to release sales figures, one high-level executive in a New York publishing firm conceded recently that the golden days of college textbooks, if ever there were such days, are running the gauntlet of swelling production costs and drooping university enrollments. Still, the latest Association of American Book Publishers’ figures indicate that U.S. publishing houses peddled $530 million worth of college textbooks in 1975.

That can get expensive, especially when most professors over and underestimate the numbers of books they’ll need for their classes.” Non-textbook retail mark-ups typically average between 50 and 100 percent; higher takes are common. Not surprisingly, then, the bookstores are reaping their greatest share of profits from items other than textbooks.

The University has begun its own series on the topic. The first segment of a symposium sponsored by the National Alliance for the Prevention and Treatment of Child Abuse and Maltreatment, dealt with the subject of the imposition of child rearing values on others. The symposium will continue for three weeks in ten cities, attempting to answer questions dealing with child abuse. A panel, consisting of distinguished members of the community, was headed by Karen Shimske, and included English Department Chairman Leslie Fiedler, Philosophy professor Newton Carver, Anthropology professor Erwin Johnson and Erie County social worker Ellen Thompson. The highlight of the symposium was the showing of a film narrated by Dr. Margaret Mead. The film, entitled Four Families the question: “Does the way one bathes a child influence that child’s character?” and attempted to answer it by looking at several family situations around the world. Particularly interesting was a segment showing the daily routines of a Japanese family, illustrating the close physical contact which is employed while bathing a baby. In contrast, the film showed how young French children receive much physical contact, whereas the older children do not. In Canada, children receive little sympathy and physical encouraging hurt, contact when independence, according to the film. posed Mixed society Only segments of the film were shown, and no real answer was established, which lead to discussion by the panelists. The £irst to speak, commenting briefly on the film, was Fiedler. After explaining that he was “not very qualified” to speak on the subject except for his experiences with his eight children, explained literature, Fiedler that particularly Dickens and Dostoevski, has always dealt with the problems of child abuse although it did not become a social topic until about 15 years ago. Fiedler emphasized, as did the other panelists, that we live in a mixed society where values change rapidly, and concluded by stating “Every system has its dangers.” Shimske explained five major conditions which lead to child abuse: a parent’s negative self concept; strain in another relationship; isolation (i.e. not knowing what to do or where to go); having an unusual child (i.e. retarded, one • with a birth defect, etc.); or not being able to cope with a sudden crisis and taking it out on the child. Punishment in need Carver, one of the more interesting and panelists, added the informative philosophical aspect to the discussion, reading an article fm the New York Times about a parent, who, at his wits end concerning his son’s drug involvements, shot and hilled him while the boy was asleep. The father was sentenced to five years in prison. Carver further illustrated society must punish some people in order to be organized, the degree of “cruelty” varying in different parts of the country. Johnson claimed he could not agree more with Carver as he stressed the existence of the variety of values in different parts of the world, concluding that child-rearing values could not be imposed on others. Johnson brought to light another interesting point concerning property right. Many parents feel since their children are their property and live in their house, they have the right to do whatever they want with them. Mostly minor injuries Thompson, a social worker who has handled all reported incidents of child abuse in Erie County for three years, stated most cases of “constant kind of abuse as opposed to the classic battered baby.” “constant kind of abuse as opposed to the babby.” Thompson battered classic pointed out in the United States, a physical battle between two adults is labeled an assault while the abuse of a child is often accepted, a social more which she described as inconsistant.

As might be expected, his career has been varied and colorful, and he has many interesting opinions on his work, organized crime, and journalism as a profession. For the past few years, Coppola has also been a part-time the Journalism teacher in at Buffalo State department College. “When I first came here, the Media Department was headed by a guy who had worked for AP 20 years ago,” he said. “But now the department is headed by an ex-newspaperman and our staff has grown.” a convey effectively.” Coppola has been on the staff of the Buffalo Evening News for past ten years, covering organized crime for the last seven. Although he doesn’t specialize in organized reporting, crime Coppola is the paper’s only writer devoted to this area. the - “-A few years back, I was assigned to do a story on a murder. The Mafia was involved, and after I did the story, the editors liked it and told me to follow it up. Since then, any story Connected to organized crime has been mine.” The human side While most news articles concerning organized crime only relate to the cold, dirty facts, added a new Coppola has dimension to this, sphere of the writing: human side of criminal activity. Explaining why he takes this compassionate view, he said, “I grew up with these people. When I was a kid, I respected and was in awe of Stefano Magaddino (the late boss of the Buffalo family). I knew, him to be a great man. It was only when I started writing that I became exposed to the other side.” Coppola conceded that his background has helped him. “I can relate to these people. I know many of them. We are friendly enough that I know them and they know me, but we’re not drinking friends. After all, it wouldn’t benefit me to be seen with these people, and they sure as hell wouldn’t benefit from seen with me.” He being must you continued, “but remember, they are human beings too. They have problems. They worry about their kids being busted for marijuana.” Because of the nature of his articles, has Coppola ever been scared? “Because I write the honest truth, they (the Mafia) respect me. I have no fear of them, but I do remember two instances when 1 was scared. The first was when I did a story on a Lackawanna detective. After I wrote the story. I happened to be Although Coppola finds his role as a teacher fulfilling, his main function is as a writer. As a child growing up in Buffalo, he was influenced a great deal by his father. “My_ father knew many of the men (in the Mafia], and he didn’t want me to get involved. For as long as I could remember, the notion of going to college was inbred in me.” Coppola went to college with the intention of becoming a journalist. “When I was in high school, I joined the newspaper staff. The first time 1 saw my name in print, I loved it. I knew then, that this is what I wanted to do.” “It’s kind of an ego trip,” he “And whether continued. someone praises your work, or says it’s a piece of horseshit, it is important to create visual images man was irrational and unstable, but I printed his name in a subsequent story anyway.” ‘Would have choked me’ Of the countless stories Lee Coppola has written, none have been as exciting or as filled with secrecy as the series of articles he wrote about Pasquale Calabrese, a Mafia informant. “After I wrote the story about his (Calabrese’s) children, I was contacted by an intermediary, that said that Calabrese wanted to meet me and give his side of the story.

Known as the “Wessell Commission” after its chairman Nils Y. Wessell, the five member body is charged with generating some light amidst the great volume of heat being produced by conflicts stemming from stiff competition among groups seeking greater control over New York s educational policies and shrinking state aid for education. The public and private university sectors are competing for state aid as they both face rising costs and inflation. The State Board of Regents are skirmishing with the SUNY Administration and Trustees for control over SUNY’s internal management. The Regents recently stripped SUNY Albany of several graduate programs over SUNY’s protests. These are among the crucial policy issues the Wessell Commission is looking into, as well as rumors of a possible merger of the State and City University systems and charges that the Regents harbor a pro-private school financial bias. Their report will be advisory and not have the force of law, yet it is not an “up front/show” commission but rather one that is expected to affect real changes in state policies. The Commission suggests that at least 25 percent of the City University’s funding be provided by the City of New York. The recent tuition imposition would add to these revenues. Their study is concerned with all sectors of the state operated, community higher education and a recent Village college and private campuses Voice article portrays each sector as engaged in fierce competition. The Voice article also mentions “secret” deliberations among some colleges and private the Commission. Those communications to mentioned include a block formed by CUNY’s four oldest senior colleges, and lobbyists for the private sector. Four members of the Commission are closely associated with ivy league universities. Commission spokesman Tom Hassan said, “The Commission feels that the independent sector represents an important position in higher education in New York.” - - In preliminary recommendations, the Commission reports that it is “of the utmost importance that the Senior Colleges of the City University be assured of financing adequate to permit them to continue to perform their vital function within the State’s higher education system.” No indication of their recommendations for, SUNY have been forthcoming yet.

What does all this mean for the future of higher education? Well, the man who holds the answers does not come from the academic community. Joseph A. Califano, New York City lawyer turned Secretary of HEW, will, if nothing else, be conservative about higher President education spending. Carter promised in his campaign to establish a separate department for education. But Califano has told associates that he is, at best, lukewarm to. the idea. He is said to believe that the principal effect of creating a new Department of Education would be to establish still another agency reporting directly to the President. Score a point for reducing bureaucratic paper shuffling, but take it away for a lack of alternatives. Professors at other colleges and have offered a universities lukewarm response to Carter’s Cabinet selections. Bitter grapes? Probably not, since many of them voted for Carter and say they did not expect any special rewards for any of their support. Still, many the academic of those in community are disappointed. Took a chance “The concept of new faces wasn’t possible. Mr. Carter was naive in assuming he could find competent people who were not overburdened with Washington ties,” said Lorn Foster, assistant professor of political science at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. “I took a chance on Carter for change and I’m disappointed that he didn’t take a chance on his Foster’s cabinet,” added Philip Dyer, an colleague, associate professor in the same department. Well, not every prof agrees. At the. University of Rochester, the frigid weather has not chilled the heart of one political science professor. Peter Regenstrief, a professor of Canadian politics and a columnist for the Toronto Star, has been behind Carter when he was no more than a small headline somewhere in the newspaper. “1 thought he was a superb candidate and 1 have found little to change my mind. 1 expect we will have a slightly less expensive government. I expected absolutely no reward for the campaign work I did last year, and 1 think we are ushering in an era of good feeling. I’ve got Carter’s picture on my wall,” said Regenstriel. I’ll bet it’s signed.

As such, the budget is devoted mostly to paying off the interest on bonded State debts and keeping up with the spiraling effects of inflation, especially in the? cost of fuel. And although it's never mentioned, the spectre of increased tuition is very much a part of the Governor's budget The $17.3 million in small increases to bespread among many campuses is largely negated by $15.7 million in reductions in authorized staff and program support. This is the section of the budget most closely related to the efficiency of the University and the academic curriculum. In other words, SUNY is still hurting. Fewer resources may be allocated to SUNY's yearly operations, because in essence, State officials are still paying off the cost of construction on buildings that were completed years ago. The problem is aggravated because at Buffalo, Stony Brook and least three major campuses projects still in progress. have construction major Purchase are seriously programs last academic year, Like must be laid off. We University employees underfunded, and madness building a of a time reflect on the think it's good to fluctuations of a credit market on capricious University the term long sell bonds. the State's ability to SUNY construction is financed through a complicated method involving several State agencies. Tuition was instituted in 1963 to pay for the construction of campuses. Prior to 1963, building was financed out of State funds. Currently, buildings are initially financed out of State funds (first instance appropriations). Buildings are then bonded by the Housing Finance Agency (HFA). HFA bonds buildings because the State cannot go into debt without voter permission. The State and HFA have a base ownership agreement and at the end of 30 years the buildings become State owned. SUNY makes two payments on the bonds a year and must keep a year's payment in reserve as security. SUNY must pay every year for the interest and the principle on the bonds for the next 30 years. Thisns what is known as debt service. When tuition was created, money was made available for SUNY to use to pay for the debt service on new construction. the State's first The burden of paying off the bonds through a debt revenue tied tuition has been to priority And mechanism. we all know service-tuition compensatory where tuition comes from. State officials are trying to walk a fine line in paying off the State bonds and operating a major University system. They more or less openly admit that tuition will increase on a regular basis as part of the effort to pay off the debt — To the Editor A few of us' were wondering what could be wrong with the leaders in our student government s organizations. Mention in the most recent The Spectrum (No. 49. page I) of “ass-whipping” and intimidation is the ultimate cause for this letter for have these symbols from a prejudice society really no place in any government. The logic, for example, of the BSU acting president is absurd in justifying “ass-whipping.” “Respect me or pay the brutal price” in logic textbooks is referred to as an example of Argumentum ad Baculum (appeal by force) and in society is referred to as being quite reprehensible; this, however, seems to be his answer in commanding by beating it out of them. the rdspect of his peers of force as a merit philosophy see this 1 can hardly to any society, much alone one populated by well-educated individuals in a university system. — And Intimidation is also far from being an acceptable modus operandi in running an efficient government system.

Friday, 11 February 1977 A previous letter in this space has brought to my attention a- regretable situation. |t seems that Dr. Ganz of the Department of Speech Communication may lose his appointment because he is on the wrong side of a political fence that has developed in that department. It is regretable for any person to lose a position because of politics. It is far more frustrating when someone who has served the University as well as Dr. Ganz has. may be lost. I am in no position to comment on Dr. Ganz’ teaching ability because I have never had occasion to study in his department. However, 1 have seen Dr. Ganz on local television programs discussing his research. On these programs . he was both knowledgeable and informative. The school would do well to have many more staff members representing it in such a way. I know anothbr facet of Dr.'Ganz’ work around this campus. Last year, budget cuts hit almost every department in the school. In the Athletic Department the cross country budget was cut to nearly nothing and track was eliminated completely. At the beginning of the ’76—’77 school year, there was no cross country coach and too little money to hire one. Dr. Ganz volunteered to be coach. He spent his free time last semester running practices on weekdays and travelling with the team to meets on weekends. This involves a lot of time he might have spent with his wife a'nd child. As the cross country season ended Dr. Ganz volunteered to coach indoor track which is currently going on. He has also volunteered to coach spring track when the time comes. There are fifteen men who would have missed Dr. Ganz last season and many more this indoor track season. It would be bad if the University repaid Dr. Ganz ' by terminating him. How can this institution afford to lose this man? Koh Schaefer �Underground scene Punk rock flourishes with new album releases by Dimitri Popadopoulos Flash Bulletin Our beloved Patti Smith has fallen victim to her own wild acrobatics. In a recent Tampa gig, Patti attempted an aerial summersault, and as she plummitted back to Earth, our heroine missed the stage and fell 10 feet into the orchestra section of the hall. Patti will be laid up for the next 6 to 8 weeks, as she needs time to recover from the 22 stitches she received in the head, a hairline vertebrae fracture, and a number of other unsightly bodily injuries. Hope ya get well soon, Patti. — Contributing Editor Some history Several years ago, this guy named Tom Verlaine walked down the Bowerey, with a guitarist friend named Richard Lloyd. Guided by hope and intuition, the two stopped into a bar (I bet you can't guess which one) and convinced the owner that it would be wise to present their new band at this cramped bar. So a stage was built, and for the following eight Sundays a band called Television played mostly to drunks that walked in off the streets. The bar was eventually to be called C.B.G.B.’s and it was to be the beginning of a new rock and roll revolution. The above description beset the origin of the underground scene in New York; a mise en scene that was given the apt title "punk rock." Already the major groups in the city have been in the studio, recording a wave of excellent and enjoyable elpees, and other bands are also swarming the studios or are on the verge of signing recording contracts. So with this in mind, the once unpublicized underground scene is definitely over and the big question is what will come next. Alan Betrock, editior of the New York Rocker, one of the most lively and relevant magazines devoted to any local music scene, sez that "with industry awareness and media heavily focused on New York, scene spotters are now looking to Boston or London or Los Angeles or California for the new underground bands." Still, I believe that the New York bands will have to carry the weight of breaking the charts. For those of you that do not read fanzines, or have not followed the puck scene since its inception and wish to know more, I have-compiled this summary of what has already gone down/will go down in the Big Apple. Read carefully, for these groups will carry a major weight in the music scene in the next few months/years. - A decedent's discography The Patti Smith Group has received the most acknowledgement of the bands in question, and for a very good reason. Smith has been the greatest present to rock and roll in a long while. Her Rimbaud-influenced poetry-set-to-music is refreshing, and her stage act is one of the best since the demise of the first great wave of heavy rockers, the wave which included such illumunious figures as Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, and the Velvet Underground. Her fir.st album. Horses, is a classic in every sense of the word, and contains a special version of that sixties hit "Gloria," with its "leaning on the parking meter, humping on the parking meter" lyrics. Recently Patti Smith and her Lenny Kaye, Ivan Krai, Jay Dee Daugherty and band Richard Sohl have completed their second LP, under the aegis of Aerosmith producer Jack Douglas. This time around the eight song LP, entitled Radio Etheopia, has a t more rock-and-roll edge to it. Some of the songs are Ain "Poppies," River," the narcotic it Strange," "Pissin' in the Abyssinia," and the title cut, which of late has become the important live improvisational piece. The fanatics among you might try to locate either of her two singles: her definitive poetical statement "Piss Factory" and her enough, defiant version of "My Generation." If that's not credit, the infectious Patti also has two bootlegs to her inflamed Teenage Perversity and Ships in the Night and the Hard Nipples. Mrs. Bumstead Comes Alive With a name borrowed from that famous comic strip, another female based group to be on the lookout for is Blondie. After toiling in the studio with producer Richard Gptthehrer, this convocation, fronted by blonde sweetheart Deborah Harry, has finished a very professional album for the Private Stock Label. This disc will capture your cerebrum and never let go. Listen as Blondie sneers "Rip Her to Shreds," double-take as she reworks West Side Story in "A Shark in Jet's Clothing," then boil over in laughter to’ the marimba-infested "The Attack of the Giant Ants." Giant Ants from space, snuff the human race First they eat your face, never leave a trace La, la la, la la, la, la fa, la la. most definite. TV is definitely the band to demonstrate to the rest of the country that New York rock is fresh, original, exciting, and even great. If all goes well, this album should be a classic although unlike the Ramones it will not be intended for the very young. As Tom Verlaine has admitted, "I think we look too young for 13 year old girls." Master Race Rock The Dictators are the heaviest of all the N.Y.C. bands, as their sonorousness emulates a combination of Kiss and Aerosmith, without forgetting their intimate ties to Blue Oyster Cult, with whom they share both management and producers. They are also heavy in another sense —' they enigm. that alvyays-more-than-welter-weight spawn Handsome Dick Manitoba, whose visual and lead vocal talents helped to make their first album a satirical and critically-acclaimed success. The Dictators have been steadily improving since Dictators Go Girl Crazy and though recently dropped by Columbia, they have just signed a new deal with Elektra. Their new album will exhibit a lineup of great social import: some "titles that seem likely for inclusion are "Steppin' Out," "How Does a Brain So Small Move Fingers So Fast," "Dogs," and "Science Gone Too Far," the probable title cut. More Soho news owner of that fabled bar C.B.G.B.'s Hilly Kristal began to privately press an album of unsigned local favorites last summer. As of late, Atlantic Records has picked up the distribution of this anthology. While the record tends to be spotty at times, as it display? a crude mix, several acts are worth checking out. Most noted are — As the liner notes declare, "rock and roll is the name of their game, but to-give to you, the listeners, more fun the object of their fame. This may be just the thing all you non-blondes have been waiting for." Of all the New York punk rockers; the Ramones are perhaps my favorite band, with their sometimes serious, sometimes hysterical verse. The Rambnes are a throwback to earlier times, happier times: Happy Days. Imagine four prototypes of the Fonz playing a series of variations on the theme of super fast speed pop. WOOOOEEE and HEEEYVV, watch out faw dez guys, day could be bigger dan der idols, Herman's Hermits. The Ramones have two albums, both on Sire Records. The first one contains the facist rush, "The Blitzkrieg Bop," a song that will command you to listen, demand that you react. Their second LP, The Ramones Leave Home, does everything that the first Runaways' album promised,.without having them spell it out for you You WILL follow them with sensual abandon. Also, the Ramones have a new single, "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend," backed by a medley of "California Sun" and "I Wanna Sniff Some Glue," a live recording from the Roxy. Next week : an interview with the Ramones. — - Television: bigger than cable Television are: Tom Verlaine, lead guitar, vocals, sometimes rhythm guitar; Richard Lloyd, rhythm guitar, occasional lead guitar, backing vocals; Fred Smith, bass, backing vocals; Billy Ficca, drums. As you read this, their first album (probably called Television) and another single, "See No Evil/Little Johnny Jewel, Pt. 3," will have hit the racks of your favorite record nook. At present, the deal seems to be a one-shot affair with Tom Verlaine bestowed producing reins, as long as an experienced engineer handles the technical end of things. As of now, nine cuts are planned, with "See No Evil" and "Venus De Milo" the Mind De Ville and Tuff Darts, who contribute five outstanding cuts. Mink's "Change it Comes" reggaes along with the best of them, and "Cadillac Moon" could have been included on the Stone's Sticky Fingers without a question as to who was performing. Tuff Darts will inevitably be the first of this crop to score a contract. The band's tie-and-jacket image augments their raucous brand of rock and roll. As for their three cuts, "Slash," "All For the Love of Rock and Roll," (a great anthem if I ever heard one) and "Head Over Heels," they are simply better than anything Lou Reed has created in his last few turns at bat. Other punk donors are Manster, the power trio Sun, Stuart's Hammer, The Laughing Dogs, The Shirt and the Miamis. Not to feel left out, the management at Max's Kansas City has just jumped into the vinyl jungle. Similar in format to the Live at C.B.G.B.'s album, this one is called Max's Kansas City 1976. Performing here are the somewhat notorious Wayne County and the Back Street Boys (whose first album on the Bomp Label should be out soon), ex-groupie-turned-lead-singer Cherry Vanilla and her Staten Island Band, The Fast, The John Colins Band, Harry Toledo, and Pere Ube. Terry Ork, guiding light of Ork Records and the man responsible for Television's first single ("Little Johnny Jewel Pts. 1 & 2") has been to work with other such bands as Richard Hell and The Voic Gilds; The Heartbreakers, with ex-Doll Johnny Thunders; Milk and Cookies and The Marbles.

Robert Altman's Buffalo Bill and the Indians, showing tonight, takes Arthur Kopit's play "Indians" and gives it Altman's by now legendary kaleidoscopic treatment, with rambling, raucous results. Paul Newman plays Buffalo Bill, with Burt Lancaster, as P.T. Barnum, promoting his Wild West Show. Shootist, directed b\| film-cult favorite Don Siegel and set for tomorrow and Sunday, is nominally about aging gunman J.B. Books and his impending death. Its real subject is John Wayne, giving arguably his best screen performance as Books, supported by cinema veterans Lauren Bacall, James Stewart, Richard Boone, John Carradine, and Hugh O'Brian.

He also fell in love with British Isles folk music. and he is also the Arts Editor of The Spectrum. He still returns to Shore Church on Somehow, he caught word of the Buffalo Folk Song Club, which was comprised of anywhere from 3 to 24 people getting together every twp weeks, exchanging and sharing bawdy, drinking songs. By the end of a year, the club members disappeared, moved on or away, but the idea never died. Creation of Buffalo folklore center A dream of his is to create a folklore center around Buffalo, which would be a general resource for anyone interested in folk music. There is no place now for Buffalo folkies to get together. The center would provide hard-to-find songbooks and records, both common and rare instruments, and musical accesspries. It would house sing-ins, song-ins, square dances and coffee houses. Anyone interested is urged to contact him. Vet, he'd like to travel, too. "There are five billion people in this world, and I'm only one-five billionth of it. I'd like to see the rest." To see and sing in bars like the one he visited after his Alfred gig, one out of the three bars in Alfred. To be on the road, stopping and singing and moving on. To spread his own songs and the songs of others. "If I can learn the songs of great folk writers and do them justice, and if my audience got interested in them ahd never wanted to hear me again. I'd be happy," he says. Still shy ahd modest, until he cocks his head and smiles. "Though I can't say I'd be overjoyed." He began performing at open mike folk sessions at two West Side churches. The Shore Church still has these sessions. For a time, he was a regular. The urge to perform, ironically enough, stemmed from his shyness. It was an attempt at indirect approval: like my music, like me. He says now he has faced the hard realization that "the way people think of you artistically and what they think of you as a person are two completely different things." Now he performs to make people aware they can make their own music, and to get music away from profit-making. He's still shy. He has performed at the University several times, at Coffeehouses and in Haas lounge, and continues to do so. Additionally; he Has his own a program on WBFO on Saturdays at 1 p.m. station, he says, which has a terrific selection of folk — music —continued from page 10— Wanderings 11— I'm too angry even to think of a better phrase.

It also wasn't much more insightful than anything else on the tube. The blacks were noble, the whites despicable, and there the characterization stopped cold. More than anything else, it resembled a black Bonanza. The word I've most often used in opinion of TV's Roots has been "pride." Pride in what?

Opinions It is the opinion of this writer that the amount of commercial time given to advertisers would completely destroy the BUF rock format of "progressive" and leave Buffalo with yet teeny-bopper rock another station, At present, BUF plays a blend of all types of music not heard on AM stations. To add another teen rock station to the Buffalo radio dial would not only defeat the station's artistic purpose but would also leave Liggett with a station that is an economic failure, according to the theory of supply and demand. For example, as the number of teen radio stations increase, the audience demand for the teen type of music will decrease. For Liggett to put $700,000 into an already flooded market would simply not work. Particulars Under the direction of Liggett, BUF's total time devoted to news per week will decrease from 10 hours to that of 7 hours, while time given to public affairs will drop from 6 hours to 2Vi hours. special other Airing of programming will be lessened from 4 hours to 2 hours. According to the FCC license application "WBUF's format will consist of contemporary and standard popular music in stereo. Approximately 90 percent of the station's' broadcast time will be devoted to this music format." What standard and contemporary popular music means to me is a format of teen rock music. The records now played by BUF are anything but "standard" and In other words, when applied according to instructions, a new record treated with Sound Guard preservative and played 100 times sounds the same as one in “mint” condition played the first time!

BUF sale —continued Yrom page 13 The Spectrum . Friday, 11 February 1977 members. Prodigal Sun �RECORDS ZZ Top.Tejas (London) ZZ Top is another "We're from the South and damned proud of it" band. And on their new album, Tejas, they don't let you forget it for a minute. Their album cover and jacket, with buffaloes, cactus and blue skies, looks like an illustration for the song, "Home On The Range." As if this weren't enough, their enclosed lyric sheet has words likes "Thangs" instead of "things" to make it perfectly clear that, yes, they do have southern accents. ZZ Top employs a rather indistinctive brand of "Southern rock n' roll," with the all-too-often used arrangements of bass and electric guitars with drums. Most of their songs are in the style of their hit single, "Tush," and the band seems to be attempting to cash in on the success of that song. I'm afraid it won't work. ZZ Top is stale. Their lyrics are uninspired and insulting. Take, for example, the first verse of the song, "Snappy The last song on Tejas, "Asleep In the Desert," comes as a welcome relief from the unbearable vocals of the spngs that precede it. It is an acoustic instrumental and is enjoyable, if for nothing else than its divergence from the rest of the LP. This is the only song on the album which was not written by all three members, but solely by Billy Gibtvons. It is not the type of song that will make the listener jump up and shout,"Wow! They're sure versatile!" but it is good nonetheless. It shows that perhaps there is a little musical ability left in ZZ Top after all. Unfortunately, one song out of ten is not a very good average, and I,suspect some people will not be able to sit through the whole album so they will never even hear this song. Kakkie:" — say Hey! Snappy Kakkie! Do you wanna play? I say hey! Snappy Kakkie! / — said whatcha’ say! Come on! Come on! / Need I continue? It gets worse. A certain creativity that was evident in a few years back with songs like "La Grange" is gone. 1 reckon them thar truckers will take a likin' to some of these here tunes like, "Arrested For Driving While Blind," "Pan Am Highway Blues," and a songs about a girl who drives a pick-up called, "She's a Heartbreaker." Unfortunately, we're not all truckers. I must give ZZ Top credit, however, for not mentioning CB radios once during the whole album. Group members Billy Gibbons on guitar, harmonica, and fiddle; Dusty Hill on bass guitar; and Frank Beard on drums have put out an LP that reeks of insipid sameness that is almost painful to listen to. It does not hurt as much to hear some of these songs alone on the radio, but to listen to the entire album in one sitting is quite irritating. Admittedly, this album has some high points. The first cut, "It's Only Love” is the group's current single. It has a good beat and it's easy to dance to. I'll give it an 85, Dick. An Evening With Diana Ross (Motown Records) Few contemporary artists are as uniquely gifted or blessed with the natural talent of Diana Ross. For close to fifteen years, on both records and concerts, she's captured the hearts of millions of loyal fans in a way few others in her category of music have. Since leaving the legendary Supremes in 1970, she's gone on to more hit records (four more No. 1's,) two very successful motion pictures, and continued brilliant live performances. Last year after a temporary absence from the stage. La Ross returned in triumphant fashion. Headlining at the Palace Theatre on Broadway, her concert, in addition to being an artistic success, resulted in box office receipts that were higher than any other three-week engagement in the entire 63 year history of the Palace Theatre. Diana was simply astounding. Her singing, always considered by this reviewer to be the best in the world, was better than ever, with power, and unlimited charisma poured into every number . Prodigal Sun Average White Band, Person to Person (Atlantic Records) As some great sage of musical wisdom once said (in reviewing a Nils Lofgren concert here at U.B.,) perhaps an artist's true worth can only be gauged by his or her performance in a live concert. Well,' this truism seems to have withheld the test of time (but with a few major exceptions, i.e. Dave. Mason's "Certified Live" album, which failed though he is generally excellent in the atmosphere of a live concert.), Now, the major contestant in the new American Musical Rage of Live albums has entered the field, Person to Person by the just-Average White Band. As a studio band up until this point, AWB have earned the title of the "Kings of Blue-eyed Soul." After all, such hits as "If I Ever Lose This Heaven/' "Pick Up The Pieces" and "Person to Person", ain’t bad, considering that these five Scotsmen (and one American Black) have been able to transcent White Pop-Radio Playlists and make it onto Black-Playlists. It also ain't bad in these racially troubled times when one can get both black and white to get up and boogie together, regardless of the racial origins of the musicians. Anyway, these princes of Soul have released what I would consider to be a generally mediocre live album. The music is flaccid as it is but dammit, the packaging of the record (does anyone remember what "promotion" is all about?) is so un-awe-inspiring that if the decor of the record-shop that was selling it was of brick-hued tones, the potential purchaser of the albums would be inclined to squash his or her cigarette butt on the record jacket, thinking that it was just the wall. There is simply very little or different in this release to get people to go out and buy it. Back to the music. According to the accounts of people who have man, they can cook! However, if they can, how come seen AWB live they don't do it on this album? Take, for instance, their 18-minute version of "Pick Up The Pieces." Here is an excellent chance to take a Brecker Brothers-type tune and turn it ihto a hot, butt to butt dance tune. Instead, we get six minutes of butt to butt dancing and 12 minutes of boring uneventful jamming. "T.L.C. (Tender, Loving Care what else) is also, politely speaking, drawn out too long (14 minute ), without quite achieving its intended purpose. However, the standards (i.e. "If I Ever Lose This Heaven," "I Heard It Through The Grapevine") that they perform are done admirably and do earn them a niche alongside Hall and Oates in the "Blue-Eyed Soul" compendium. On "If I Ever Lose This Heaven," the falsetto needed to carry the tune comes off well and everyone is left more than satisfied. The same goes for their remake of "I Heard It it too is carried off respectably. you're conclusion an average AWB fin and you still have if In heavy memories of having taken Marge, Jane etc. (Mark, Jan, etc.) to an AWB concert and having had a remarkable evening both during it and (especially) after it; then buy it. One must preserve those memories somehow. But dig it, if AWB never rubbed you right to start out with, then Person to Person is gonna leave you completely limp! —Gerald Maltz Through the Grapevine" — ... What “happened to ZZ Top is not surprising. Although they were never a great group, they did make their mark as a competent southern rock band. However, it appears the success of a hit single created pressure to make a follow-up hit, and they apparently wanted it to come from Tejas, as all of the songs are short enough to be played on AM radio, and almost all have a potentially commercial sound. It is sad to see a respected band like ZZ Top, often compared to the likes of the Allman Brothers Band or Lynyrd Skynyrd, make such a desperate —Bob McCrone attempt at marketability. This new package, a two-record set, is basically her entire new show. Though Motown has made their usual blunders, the sheer talent and quality of Diana Ross enables her to transcend them. For instance, rather than do justice to a song like "Love Hangover," The huge number one smash of last summer, Motown manages to give the "live" a fade-out ending, culminating side one. Also, Motown includes on the jacket one of the Supreme songs "Someday We'll Be Together," even though Diana doesn't as much as sing one line from that song. Despite these slipups, the album does about as good a job as possible of bringing both the feeling and sound of a Diana Ross concert to a turntable. Highlighting the album is one whole side devoted to the Motown sound of the sixties, including her Supremes' material. She does excellent solo versions of "Baby Love," "You Can't Hurry Love," and "I Hear A Symphony." While many of the Supremes' hits are over ten years old, they sound as fresh and contemporary as anything being churned out today. Another bright spot is the moving tribute Diana gives to the "working girls," the various black singers that came and went before Diana; Josephine Baker, Ethel Waters, Bessie Smith, and of course, Billie Holiday. Diana's own stunningly brilliant portrayal of Holliday in "Lady Sings The Blues" comes to mind, it having won her an Oscar nomination. Diana's version of Ethel Waters' "Stormy Weather" is nothing short of breathtaking. She puts everything she has into it, and sings with much more range than usual, reaching a high note at the song's climax that I was unaware she w?s capable of. This fine package goes over everything Diana has been involved with. There's the Motown segment, the Supremes portion, her tribute to her predecessors, plus a crop of her own hits. It's a very enjoyable album, thoroughly entertaining, and for all —Steven Brieff Diana Ross lovers, a must. "A TTACK ON FREEDOM: The Park Regime in S.

Robin Hershberger As a' freshman living in Red Jacket. Robin’s major concern during the storm was.that the cleaning woman wouldn’t make it to Ellicott for a few days. She passed the time by making a few extra long distance phone calls, and by necking with and nagging at Steve Midler, her bed partner for Ihe week. In fact, Robin Hershberger was one of 28 persons in Erie County who were not at all unhappy to see the snow fall and the gas run out. On the other hand, Steve Midler was one of 632,178 persons in Erie County who were in favor of having County Executive Ned Regan ask Mother Nature for an injunction against further snowfall. After about a day or so, Steve decided that the necking just wasn’t worth the nagging. Gesting back to the big 28, though, since that number is easier to handle than 632,178, George Makowski was sorry to see the emergency lifted. He still had plenty of food left in his Ma and Pa Grocery Store, and he loved selling quarts of milk for $2.50. Others ot Makowski s favorite pastimes include parking across two spaces wherever possible, scalping Sabres tickets tor $25 a seat, and. just for kicks, calling the police every now and then to investigate “strange goings on" in the student-rented houses on his block.. Graduate assistant in environmental design Ivan Mokolu had been very depressed before the storm, but was soon in great spirits after spotting some of those 25 foot drifts. The reason? Ivan was homesick, and being half Russian and half Eskimo, the snow made him feel like he was back home in Nome. Of course, it was acting University President Albert Somit who arranged the storm, and he naturally was one of the big 28. University President Robert Ketter returned to the active list on February I. and Somit reportedly requested the storm from Zeus. Odin, and Commander Tom to allow for a smooth transition of power. However, sources close to Somit say he was afraid that students might lay waste to the school or to each other following the January 26 Student Association Senate meeting, and he used the storm as a means of keeping his own name out of the headlines. . For Michael Kalterewski, the storm couldn't have hit at a better time. As vice president of the Elmo Textile Corp.. he had been lighting a one man battle against the eight other officers of the corporation to leave Buffalo. Kalterweski's analysis showed that bliho Textile could save thousands by relocating in any of IS southern cities, and that two years worth of the state tax savings alone wo.uld cover the moving expenses. But his plan had come under such severe criticism by ElmoVpresident Sayknox Moore, whose family had been in Buffalo for IfaO years, that, Kalterewski was fearing for his job. Needless to say. when the snow hit and Elmo Textile closed down for a week, vice president Kalterewski was at twice suddenly executive vice president Kalterewski and one more large Buffalo his former salary corporation made plans to head for the warmer, more profitable south. Inter-Residence Council (IRC) Director ot Operations Brad Koshar thoroughly enjoyed the storm. As the manager of IRC's three residence hall food stores, there was nothing he couldn't sell. In fact, Koshar made so much money during the week, that when tie lines start costing $480 a month, IRC alone will have the money for private tie lines for each of its executive members. It was a banner weelT for 63 year old Marcus Regalado. Unable to go to work, Regalado pursued his favorite hobby and at the same time carved out his own niche in the Guiness Book of World Records.

And finally, obstetrician Larry Gerber spent the week drawing up plans for his new office wing the one he'll be able to afford after the big rush in late September and early October. and that their profession involves dealing with these types of financial matters on a daily basis. Further, the. audit done here was not the type which would necessitate the use of professionals. At this point I would like to start answering sonic ot the charges leveled at Student Association by the leadership of BSU in the January 24th' issue of The Spectrum. BSU claims my injuries were exaggerated. This claim has no foundation sincc'those who make the claim never saw me after the beating, and my injuries were substantiated. As was reported, yes I did receive stitches above my eye. yes my cornea was scratched, yes I received several cuts, bruises and contusions to my lace. arms, legs' and body, and yes. my back was injured and has not yet healed. All of this was substantiated at ihe Hearing by medical records, photographs and the testimony of the examining physician from the emergency ward. The next charge was that SA put off meeting with BSU for two months. Now here is an exaggeration. In late November BSU had arranged a meeting with Student Affairs but never asked Student Association to come until the day of the meeting. Since we already had other meetings scheduled, we were unable to attend. On November 30th there had been another meeting set up by George Thomas of Third World Vets..but when I spoke to John Lott of BSU earlier (hat day he said he knew nothing about it and that all parties would be unable to attend. A meeting did take place on December 9th. This time period was not two months, but less than one month and it included Thanksgiving vacation. It would seem impossible for SA to be guilty of precipitating the assault by calling in University Police since they did not arrive until after the incident was over. have had If the response to this is the few University Police present precipitated the incident, well, we have not had them present since the Financial Assembly meetings in Haas Lounge last Spring. These meetings were disrupted when Robert Tribble and John Lott flipped over the tables I was seated at, so as to prevent the Financial Assembly from passing the Student Association budget. Since it was known University Police were present, 1 won’t speculate on what might have happened if they had not been present. I checked with the Office of the President and it is not at all unusual to expell students even if an incident doesn’t involve weapons. In this case, it would be all the less unusual because of the degree of force used and that this had been an attack and not a light as claimed by BSU. For BSU President Walter Haddock to complain of our authorizing a S400 purchase order to Food Service tor the BSU Christmas party, but denying a S30 cash advance for decorations as being non-cooperative is absurd. In auditing the previous cash advances for. the basketball trips to play prison teams for BSU and Minority Altairs. it was found there were large discrepancies between the cash advanced and the receipts returned. For this reason Student Association decided not to give any further cash advances to BSU. At the same time we didn’t want to cancel an event affecting a large number of Minority students since the investigation wasn’t finished and Hie party didn't require cash. 1 thought we were being lenient in a situation that could have easily justified stricter measures. 1 won't apologize if that is being uncooperative. Whether Black or Hispanic students don't get as much service and activities from their fee money as other students remains to be seen. At any rate, direct return of money to students would destroy the offering of the many collective services which would not be otherwise possible. Direct control by Minority students over money as requested in Sub-Board would also be wrong. At present no single interest group is in control, the whole idea is tor all students to work together, hot to become fragmented. I would strongly agree that communication has been a problem here, and that it is the responsibility of the SA Minority Coordinator to help facilitate communication. Relations have been strained between BSU and SA. and that is where the SA Minority Coordinator Lddy Guity should have come it. Mr. Guity had been selected by the Minority groups to be coordinator and yet I would be hard pressed to give an example of him taking any action as spokesman or mediator in this issue. Mr. Guity seems to have the habit of disappearing when things get tough. One of the most disturbing things to me about this whole incident is that many people we have been working with all year, because they are Minority students, are automatically defending the three defendants. Their recent behavior has been militany, abusive and uncooperative, and we have even been accused ot every wrongful deed since the Scottsboro Boys case. 1 can understand the pressure for unity, but in this case it is very much misguided. To succumb to pressure to defend men who are wrong merely because they arc Black is self-defeating. To defend solely because of the color ot one's skin can only serve to propogate negative stereotypes about the people they represent. What is needed here arc individuals who have the courage to make up their own minds rather than those who find it easier to go along. The leadership of the BSU is wrong here in the methods that have been used. Instead of Cooperation and communication, there has been violence and deception. The issue that started all this was fiscal responsibility, but the BSU leadership being caught in a poor position cries “racism” to divert attention away from the real issue. Another important issue is involvement. In order for any system to work, it must bring all groups into that system. Yet no group can be allowed to abuse the system, to threaten the people in it, to claim they are not a part ot it, and at the same time to demand the benefits of being part without the responsibilities that go along with it. I want to make it clear Student Association has no intention of trying to harm Minority students, or any students for that matter. And yet it must be understood that at the very least the officers and representatives of all organizations must act with both responsibility and respect in order to make things work. - - — (Juest Opinion by Steve Spiegel As might be expected when something as controversial the audit of cash advances and the assault on a student as hits the paper, there will be reactions in the student body. What also might be expected are rumors and false statements that arise from such incidents. I would imagine many students aren’t sure what to think at this point. I would like to use this opportunity to set the facts straight and to present my opinion on’ what's been happening. The best place to start is with the article which contained the most damaging false information, the January 24th article by Beunice Sullivan. To say the least this was a distorted piece of writing. The majority ol the article, purports statements to be tacts when these statements are not facts because they are inaccurate or false. The Hearing Committee recommendation was tor two expulsions and one suspension, the three defendants are-temporarily suspended until the University President decides on the case, which has not happened yet. The testimony attributed to me is not the testimony I had given. The statement about Robert Tribble is nor a statement of fact, but solely the contention ot the detense; and yet the fact that three witnesses placed all three defendants as taking an active part in the assault was omitted from the article. Other testimony was distorted and the report of Mrs. Palisano and myself having filed civil suit is also false. A possible explanation behind that article might be the events leading to Ms. Sullivan’s writing the article. The defense has the right in a University Hearing to refuse admittance to the press, but the press was allowed to attend. The rule is any press or no press. When The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief and the Campus Editor requested admittance, the leadership ot BSU said it was alright only if they were allowed to review the copy before it went to press. The Spectrum rightfully refused and was told they could not attend, even though this wasn t true. Now Beunice Sullivan was admitted as a friend of the defense and later volunteered since she is also a The Spectrum writer to do the article. The Spectrum decided that if they couldn’t have an editor, any writer would do. There is little doubt now that this was a mistake. There are two clarifications I would like to make in regard to-Danny Parker’s article - in the January 28th issue. The Minority Coordinator’s budget had been frozen because of his involvement in the travel advances. This would not normally affect minority organizations unless there was an event scheduled through that line. PODER did have an event scheduled which we were unaware of, when we found out the line was unfrozen. The freeze was in no way intended to attect PODER or any other directly minority organization, but only those budgets involved. The first audit committee was referred to as being non-professional, and there are negative connotations to that term. I would like to point out that two members of the Office of Student Affairs were part of that committee Friday, 11 February 1977 . The Spectrum Page seventeen . �General S.A.

And one of the biggest packages contains the 1978 fiscal budget. Whether or not Carter and the Congress decide that Ford’s budget needs a major overhaul remains to be seen. Carter has hesitantly resheathed his campaign trail Bowie knife, apparently having second thoughts about slashing down the proposed spending. Ford recommended that the government spend SI 1.1 billion on higher education activities for fiscal ’78 (which begins next October 1). Approximately $8.2 billion will be spent on aid to students and educational institutions, with the remaining $2.9 billion ear-marked for research and development projects at colleges and universities. These figures indicate a cutback of a billion dollars from the present fiscal year spendings and nearly a billion and a half from spendings in 1976. The funding cutback seems to have been another attempt by Ford to phase out and eliminate several aid and institutional assistance programs, like national direct student loans, supplementary educational opportunity grants, and aid to land grant colleges. Also included in the budget recommendation was an outline to begin a four-year phase-out of Social Security benefits for college students. Ford, as his bedget reflects, says the Veterans Administration expects spending for education and training benefits under the GI Bill to decline from the $4.2 billion this year to $3.9 billion in fiscal 1978. — 4:30, Students now unfinished homework Norton^ For the present, the higher education budget is unlikely to change, except for areas that may coincide with Carter’s proposed “economic stimulus” program, which includes tax reform arid manpower training recommendations. It is expected that Carter and the congressional appropriations committees will use the Ford budget as a starting point, but there is still little indication as to how much revising will be done. However, Ford’s budget did call for an extra $2.4 billion in additional appropriations for the current fiscal year for a variety of higher and vocational education programs. Legislation reapproving these programs was signed in the fall, but Congress failed to approve the funds needed to finance the measures. Hearings on these supplemental requests are expected to begin in February. Under Ford’s proposals, the basic opportunity grant program would remain the same, with a maximum grant of $1400. Several major college associations have indicated that they would like to see •Congress add another billion dollars to increase that maximum to $1800. University based research received a boost in the budget outlines, continuing a two-year trend. Scientific research and development, especially in energy and defense, are enjoying the same ride, with an average increase of eight percent. Again, it is still not clear what Carter will have to say about these proposals, because he has called for a thorough reorganization of the government’s energy program. One happy note to those college and university employees who enjoy certain tuition benefits: the Internal Revenue Service, after hearing a number of complaints from higher education representatives, abandoned its proposal to tax the benefits. However, the l.R.S. is going ahead with plans to tax the value of free or reduced tuition received by families of college employees. *ick Ea/ o o CHICKEN WINGS 10 Wings & - $1.95 - 50 WINGS includes — 18 Wings - - $2.85 $5.50 <-dl Blue Cheese, Celery & Carrots HOT-MEDIUM-MILD HOURS Weekdays & Sundays Fridays 8i Saturdays — — 11 am 1 am 11 am 3 am — — | POSITION AVAILABLE I I Must | UUAB BOOKKEEPER, $2.00 per hour Friday.

The voucher was then brought to the publisher and after my editor was called upstairs, he came down to tell me tq go ahead. This was very rare. The voucher had been cleared, and no one knew where I was going.” “When I met Calabrese,” Coppola continued, “he told me that if I had been standing next to him when he read my article, he would have choked me. But he told me that the only reason he was here was that he checked me out and found than was O.K.” Never been threatened But what about his reaction to the Don Bolles murder? After all, Bolies was a reporter whose last words were, “The Mafia, they finally got me.” Coppola remembers, , “my wife came running into the room after hearing about the incident on the eleven o’clock news. She was incoherent; babbling words bomb, explosion, death, did you hear. She went on, ‘why do you have to write about the Mafia, why can’t you write about garden parties?’ I was a little uneasy, but I was never scared. In fact, my fellow workers at the News were more fearful for me than I was, and that made me feel good.” In the many years Lee Coppola has written about organized crime, he has never once been personally threatened. “Through relatives and friends, there have been ‘suggestions’ made that I stop. My father has been stopped and asked, ‘why is your son doing this to us.’ And to the man’s credit, he has stuck by me and said, ‘that’s his job.’ Does Coppola know actually who these men are? “Yes I do,” he said — ” solemnly. Since organized crime-related stories are infrequent, Coppola has another field of writing. “1 am basically a rewrite man. I’m the guy everyone depends on. I have the lead story. I take the worded story that is recorded off the phone, rewrite it and make it into the written story. I love writing. 1 wouldn’t do it if I didn’t like it. It is very demanding and it is a lot of hard work.” But what about the pressure the journalist faces every day? “I thrive under deadline pressure. I feel that 1 do my best work when an editor tells me I have fifteen . .T journalism,’ journalism where you go to the scene of a fire and sweat out a story. I’ve often told some of my friends that they should be a journalist for two weeks. They would find out a lot about themselves as well as other people.” Like most professionals, Coppola has his idols. “The two writers that I read most are Jimmy Breslin and Mike Royko . When I was younger, I used to read all the novels of Nevil Shute. He wrote On The Beach, and some other World War II stories.” In a city like Buffalo, Coppola maintains that “two newspapers are necessary. The Courier makes us a better newspaper because it makes us work that much harder. There are things within the Buffalo Evening News that .1 would like to see changed. I really feel that the News is losing its touch with the young readers. 1 .. A would like to see the News incorporate a new flare in its writing that would attract young readers, and more recently it has. But what I like most about the News is that it is large enough to be a metropolitan newspaper, yet include enough small to community news.” minutes to write a story. Some guys crack under this kind of only pressure and take they that can assignments complete at their leisure. 1 go for ‘armpit V ' Organized crime u“™' A onetime dream has become reality for Lee Coppola. He is a working journalist. But what about young people today who are going into journalism? What is Coppola’s advice to them? “Ya know, I could kill and Bernstein. Woodward Journalism is no the exciting glamorous life they portrayed. we Watergate, Before had two-hundred applicants per year, competing for one-hundred openings. Now we have a thousand applicants for the same number of openings. But maybe that is good. Like all professions, we’ll get the cream of the crop. Ultimately, that may make the profession better.” For Lee Coppola, that is very impoftant.

The Lakers are coming! This Saturday night at 7:30 p in. and Sunday at 2 p.m. the Oswego Great Lakers come to the Tonawanda Sports Center for a two game set against the hockey Bulls. A loss at tli is time would certainly hamper Buffalo’s playoff hopes, as they are currently 8-4 in Division II. ,a game and a half ahead of Oswego, who is d-6. "We can’t afford to lose another Division II game." said Bulls coach Ld Wright. (Only Division II games count towards making the playoffs.) to be Long considered Buffalo’s arch-rivals, the Lakers are one of the finest checking teams in Division II. and always seem to provide stiff competition for their opponents. Buffalo and Oswego have met two times, this season, will) each squad recording one victory. The Bulls were defeated 4-3 in last at Oswego overtime November 17. hut came hack to sink the Lakers h-3 in the Llmira on Invitational Tournament December 4. Last year the teams were , 1-1-1 in head to head competition, and Buffalo has an 8-7-1 edge overall. Forget the past But Wright feels that against a team like Oswego, nothing but the present matters. "You can throw all record and past performances right out the window. A game against Oswego is like 'being in a dark room looking for a string light switch." said Wright. The chief lamp lighters for the Lakers are Ray Seeback. Greg Preston, and Ron Gabrielli. who form the team’s number one line. Seeback and Preston, at center and right wing, are small in stature but big in goals. In the first two the Bulls this games against season. Seeback and Preston combined for eight points (4 goals and 4 assists). Gabrielli chipped in four points of his own, as he' notched one goal, ami set up three olllcis. Last year. I’resion seored 52 points (27 goals. 25 assists). Setback was right behind with 20-51-51 and (iabrielli registered 15-27-42. Those guys are always hurling us. We have to be extra cautious the when ice." they're on commented Wright, " Star in the nets Another major factor in the Lakers' success is the superb goaltending of veteran Steve I’aluseo. Also diminutive in si/e. "Paloos." as he is known to Oswego fans, stands tall in the nets; He always provides his steady teammates with netminding, and seems to save something extra for the Buffalo to Wright. According the (Oswego) have “They gaoalfending to keep them in a ballgame with anybody." games. But the Bulls-are'heavily 'tinned themselves, and should make Palusey a very busy hum. Leading the/e-structured Buffalo offense is the line of Jack Kaminska. Ray Kick Costello. Gruarin. and "Toughie" Gruarin leads the squad in scoring this season, with 13 goals and 27 assists, lor 40 points. Kaminska. with 37 points, l leads the club in goals with l ). while Costello sports 12-18-30 record. - ' When the Bulls’ first unit is resting, the "Popcorn Line” hits the ice. led by center frank \n/alone. With Ron Reisweber on the left flank, apd hard-working Cambell bn the Stu An/alone’s line makes right, things happen. Chris Bonn. Tom uWilde. and M ike Dixotf forth the ..Bulls' third line, with Lddie Patterson and Brien Grow shuttling in and out as substitutes. The goaltending is handled by senior John Moore, who is expected to ploy both games in the series. Backup goaler Mike Bagoctis left -the team recently, and was replaced by Mike Olsen. Defense shaky The question .mark for the Bulls right now is defense, because all-star backbiter Tony Scaring! is lost for the season with a severe shoulder separation. Scaringi’s loss is a serious one. hut Wright has shuffled his defense corps to compensate for the absence of the former team captain. and Dick Koeppel Carl MacLean form the first unit, Tony Vesona and Danny ('.emitter form the second defensive pair, and Clary Paul and Pi tin an the frumpfheller roundoul , blueline corps. The Buffalo skaters made a mockery of their last contest, a 14-2 slaughter of the Cortland Stale Dragons last Tuesday night. Seven different players scored for the Bulls, led by Costello’s four tallies. An/.a'lone and Dixon had tricks of' their own. as the Bulls left their mark on three different goalies. Buffalo had beaten the Dragons earlier in the year. 10-4, hut dial game was played evenly through the last two periods. I his "contest” was a laugher from the start, as the Bulls had built a 7-0 lead after just one frame. A game such as the one against Cortland serves as a confidence buildei for the skaters, and should bolster their spirits for the Oswego series. It should be interesting to see what shape the Bulls' spirits are in on Sunday night, after the games against the hat issue of ODl magazine. On sale now! Lakers. Friday, 11 February 1977 .

The February Women hoopsters bounced off court by Joy Clark Assistant Sports Editor Buffalo State’s fast break was overpowering, Buffalo’s shooting was an anemic 26 percent, and the result was a 58-50 Buffalo State win in women’s basketball Tuesday night at Clark Hall. Buffalo is now 1-3 on the year. The Bulls were blown off the court right away, as they failed to score in the first five minutes of the game. The taller Buffalo State squad grabbed rebound after rebound to feed their fast break led by twin guards, Karen and Kathy Carr. Buffalo tried to overcome their height deficiency with outside shooting. But this strategy was stymied by the strong Bengal defense, which refused to make things easy for the Buffalo shooters. “We always had pressure on their shooter,” said Bengal coach Carolyn Lehr. “We always forced bad shots from them.” Then Buffalo’s Nan Harvey came off the bench and sparked a rally in the middle of the first period with her long outside shots. At one point, the Bengals had only a four point lead, but co-captain Karen Carr, made some outside shots which fired up the Bengals and cooled doWn the Bulls. She" finished with 29 points, including 14 in the first half. Fast start fizzles Buffalo, led by guards Regina Frazier and Clyde O’Malley came on strong in the second period with three straight baskets in the first two minutes. But then the Bengals defense tightened up and held Buffalo scoreless for the next five minutes. While their defense continued to shine on one end of the court, Buffalo State’s offense was equally impressive and by the time the Bulls managed to score, the Bengals had a ten point lead. Buffalo was further weakened in the second half when Frazier and and O’Malley got into foul trouble. “Once the guards got into trouble, we were lacking in leadership,” commented Cousins. The Bengals tired a bit late in the second and as a result their fast break suffered. The Bulls took advantage of this let up by applying a full-court press which neutralized Buffalo State’s offense. First, senior Barb Fislar scored on a lay-up. Buffalo stold the ball and scored again on Frazier’s lay-up tend seconds later. O’Malley made a couple of quick jump shots to bring the Bulls within six before Karen Carr came back with a basket and three free throws to ice the win for Buffalo State. Penetrating insights Cousins blamed the loss on a number of factors, including her team’s lack of height and her guards’ foul trouble. She also explained why her team failed to go inside on the offense. “They were a taller team, and if we had penetrated, we would have fouled them,” Cousins said. “Also, the game was a loosely called game, and penetration doesn’t work in that situation,” she said. O’Malley explained the situation another way. “We didn’t have the confidence to go up the middle,” she said. Cousins plans to work on her team’s shooting. “We were putting up balls with our eyes closed,” she explained. She also thinks that the defense needs work. “Our defense wasn’t playing well,” she said. “We have to put constant pressure on the other team, because we don’t have a big girl.” ATTENTION UNDERGRADS - i POSITIONS AS STUDENT AIDES — [Orientation ’77 (summer program) ROOM BOARD • j & SALARY INCLUDED Applications availble Fri.

While the precise cost of Mother Nature’s wrkth is not known at this time, an estimate may be available as early as this Friday. All University offices have been asked to approximate the damage to their buildings and report the conclusions to the University by the end of the week. According to University Information Director James DeSantis, if damage losses are great enough, the University may be eligible for Federal Disaster relief. The most costly result of the storm was bursting water pipes in various University buildings. Ellicott residents experienced frequent water main breaks which caused severe flooding and several false alarms. Porter Quad was worst hit by the internal flooding as the building was devastated by two pipe bursts. However, virtually all dorms at Ellicott witnessed some flooding, as only Red Jacket Quad was spared. A water pipe also broke at the Bell facility, located at Page and Ray Streets. Bell houses library books not frequently in demand and University Police were assisted by 17 willing students clean-up cold of Buffalo’s worst storm endeavor. Monday’s ban on non-essential driving in the city of Buffalo led many students to park their cars at Ridge Lea and use the Bluebird busses for between campuses. This caused a considerable increase in the number of bus passengers, but DeSantis claimed Bluebird officials had indicated no problems as a result of the heavy transportation load. Perhaps the most devastating effects of the heavy snow in Buffalo are yet to be experienced; spring temperatures could cause massive flooding. DeSantis said last year saw the worst flooding in the town of Amherst in ten years, a result at least partly due to the lack of flood control in the area. However, Bizer Creek, a flood diversion channel at Ellicott Creek has been widened to aid in its reception of overflow. Much of the snow has been dumped either on one of the two lakes in the Amherst area or on the ground on the east side of Millersport Highway where it will be able to drain more effectively. No flooding problems are expected to occur at the Main Street Campus. In fact, thg first step of Foster Hall lies at the same elevation as the top of the Rath Building, located in downtown Buffalo.

FSA student employees Bill denies students workers’ benefits (SASU) Students employed in campus dining halls and other Faculty Student Association operations will npt be eligible for unemployment compensation if a bill now in legislative committee becomes law. The bill is seen to have considerable legislative support. — Assembly sponsor James L. Emery (R., Livingston) said that the purpose of the bill is “To exempt college students who work at their college under a program of financial assistance to that student from receiving unemployment insurance benefits, and to prevent the cost of food service to students from being increased because of employers having to pay unemployment insurance for their student employees.” The jobs in question are usually low pay food service related The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) will be holding its 4th Annual Spring Conference this weekend in Albany. Numerous workshops will highlight ongoing .NYPIRG projects on college campuses across the state, and include recent updates of information on NYPIRG issue areas as well as strategy techniques tor students doing research and community organizing. Officials of NYPIRG, which has always emphasized student involvement, feel this conference will be their best to date. The workshops cover areas from political reform, social justice and consumer protection to Energy Alternatives. The ever popular workshop with students on Marijuana Decriminalization will detail NYPIRG’s statewide effort to “take the crime out of the grass.” Buffalo’s own Marvin Resnikoff will conduct a workshop on New York State’s future energy policies; the choices, JUDAIC STUDIES (JDS) Still Available 147244 102 Lee 01237 116 Lee 4,0 4.0 011707 202 Lee 4.0 011570 230 Lee 4.0 490955 300 Lee 6.0 the problems, the hopes.

University Auxiliary Services Director at Albany State Norbert E. Zalm, who is also chairman of a body representing all such campus Faculty-Student Associations, explained that each campus corporation must pay into Unemployment a percentage based on the total payroll, as do private corporations. Zalm claims that few students so employed become eligible for compensation since they do not work the necessary number of hours, yet local corporations must pay into the unemployment insurance program. Staff members of legislative sponsors Emery and Ronald Stafford said that the bill was probably not intended to apply to off campus employers lyring students in service to colleges and would look into the question. Assemblyman • Emery reported that there were no fiscal implications for the state but that it sought to ptovide significant savings to the not-for-profit auxiliary services corporations. The bill, sponsored by Senators Stafford and Volker, and in the Assembly by Emery, Cook, Dokuchitz, Mealy and Ryan, would amend the labor law that “services rendered directly or indirectly for or on behalf of an educational institution” would not be covered by the unemployment insurance law. This would affect many students throughout SUNY who are employed by the campus corporations.

Harlicr this year, Denver District Attorney Dale Tooley was Hot amused when the Klan attempted to organize in the city. Tooley told Klan leader Jerry Dutton that the Klan “was not welcome'" in Colorado. As soon as that was said, the local American Civil Liberties Union interceded, claiming that the DA was denying the KKK its First Amendment rights of free speech. Federal the at attorneys Health, of Education Department and Welfare are trying to determine whether the KKK has a constitutional right to make their opinions known in a Louisiana public school auditorium. Such a meeting could possibly be in violation of the Emergency School Act and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1%4. Elsewhere, school officials contacted by CPS indicated they had been nervous hosting such a potentially controversial speaker on their campuses. "None of us can afford to lose any federal aid." one official said. - Times of crises Historically, the KKK tends to emerge during times of economic crisis. The Klan nourished during the Great Depression. It sowed seeds of dissent to the millions of unemployed workers by telling them that their jobs had been taken by blacks and other minority members.

Duke’s "talk" to college audiences asserts that the KKK is no longer involved jn violent acts. "All our members take a sworn oath which forbids them to partake in any illegal activity." Duke says that the incident in November at Camp Pendelton.

America's independence was won from Britain by white men for white men." he claims. Me says that the university chapters of the KKK can be viewed as a “white nationalist fraternity."

(CPS) David Duke of Metairie, La., is a “Grand Wizard” in the Ku Klux Rian who claims to have travefled to several private and public universities in the past two years delivering paid lectures on the White supremacist ideals of the KKK. His SI,200 “talks” have been purchased by such schools as Vanderbilt University, Nashville, Tenn., the University of Georgia, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of California, the Southern of the Pacific. University Stockton, California, and Rice University in Texas. Duke claim's he even had a lecture contract at San Jose State College in California until a “bunch of Communists and left-wingers started raising a fuss.” at the A student protest University of North Carolina prevented Duke from espousing his ideas. San Jose college officials could not confirm or deny Duke's claim that he had been given a lecture contract: He says that when he appears before a college audience he doesn't wear his white gown and cap. “We try to be as professional as possible about this. The Klan is in a growing period and we feel youth involvement is vital.” he > said. Activities on cellege campuses are ■“low-key" and designed to appeal to the average white student who is “tired of being pushed around by minorities," the 26-year-old graduate of Louisiana State University explained. When asked how many students were involved. Duke refused to answer, claiming that the Rian does not allow that information to be released. ■ by Carol O’Connor Special to The Spectrum . .. . . . ..

No decision has been made by the Administration regarding other pqssible changes in the University class schedule for the remainder of this semester. contract The eventual decision will depend on several factors accreditation and vacation regulations, reschedulings. clauses, According to the Assistant to the President Ronald Stein, there are “numerous alternatives” involved in the rescheduling of the lost class days. He mentioned the possibilities of cancelling the George Washington holiday, cancelling spring recess, juggling with the two holidays, or extending the spring semester fot an extra week. Stein added that the size of the constituency of students and staff concerned, and the situations involved in each area increase the difficulities of reorganization. The Administration is trying to gather all necessary information for a decision as soon as possible.

Approximately fifteen hours of training provided by .the Office of Drug Abuse Services initially prepares these people for their community work. These groups of volunteers are concerned exclusively with prevention rather than treatment of — — - One technique which is often used with younger children is the “feel good prescription.” Each child is asked to write down a reason why he should “feel good” about himself and also does the same for his classmates. This exercise is intended to build a positive self-image by teaching the child that it is acceptable to brag sometimes. The efforts of many councils are often directed at local Parent Teacher Associations. “Sometimes parents are unaware of drug problems or have incorrect preconceptions,” said Pittman. Some of the volunteers prefer to deal with the concerns and worries parents have about their children’s drug abuse, while others are more concerned with drug abuse on the parental level itself. Comrtiunities have been responding well to the labors of the volunteers. Area merchants such as the Elmwood Village Bakery and Greenstreets Cafe have been donating food and other assistance for use at their meetings and training courses. Influenced by what they have seen and heard about the activities of other community councils, residents of various districts have requested the establishment of Drug Abuse Prevention Councils in their own drug-related problems. Subject matter of the training course is divided into seven major topics; pharmacology facts about commonly abused drugs, both legal and illegal; the rights and responsibilities of volunteers; community organizing; community needs assessment; how to plan a program; social issues of drug abuse; and a lecture by an attorney on drug laws and their social implications. Each individual council usually consists of people. twenty between fifteen and After completion of the training course, the group is free to choose the theme and method of presenting its own programs and the audience at which they will be aimed. First, they assess the particular neighborhoods.

Maloney College to enable students who volunteer to work on Drug Abuse Prevention Councils to receive credit for their experience.

It has become a point of law to distinguish between evaders and deserters, but there really was then, and is now, no difference between them. Consciousness comes at different times tq different people. Often the affluent can afford to come to consciousness in more pleasant circumstances than the poor. The mortality that made it necessary for the soldier to desert once he what really realized was happening is no less than the mortality of the liberal professor who wrote a letter opposing the war to his Congressman, or read an anti-war statement at a professional convention. In fact, the morality of the deserting soldier may be of a higher order, for the sacrifices such an action entailed were much greater. and evaders. He’s already served his years in prison. As one of the more celebrated resistance cases of the Vietnam War era, Baty obtained a good deal more publicized community support for his actions than thousands of other Americans who did exactly the same thing. Professors wrote letters for him to draft officials, local politicians debated his case, students and clergy flocked to picket his draft board in Bay shore. Long Island, and even such established newspapers as “Newsday” were forced to admit that Baty showed courage and made important points about the nature of the United States involvement in Vietnam. Yet today, as if in fear of being fingered by the right wing opposition to President Carter’s partial amnesty, or by a new wave of McCarthyism, these same professors, politicians, students, clergy, and newspaper editors are Open arms love extremely is deserting the draft evaders ahd Amnesty resistors as though they are important to those who were something of which to be forced to leave the country, and ashamed, dirty skeletons in the to those who face criminal charges loyal opposition’s closet, with for resisting the war machine at whom they no longer wish to be home and abroad. It must be extended to deserters as well as identified. In a time when those who tried draft resistors. But those-who see two-faced rationale to avoid coming right out and defending what N the Vietnam war-resistors did. Vietnam war-resistors must be given total amnesty because what they did was right, and what the government did was wrong. Those who refuse to raise the question of amnesty-in this context serve fuel up to the right-wing fires. As long as there are people who believe that United States intervention in Vietnmn was just or at all defensible, as long as allow progressive people themselves to be pushed to the defensive on amnesty because they refuse to challenge the basic assumptions of militarism, of “My country, right or wrong” or of zealous self-righteous nationalism, as long, as the real issues underlying u7fv resistors, evaders and deserters did what they did are pushed aside, intentionally forgotten, or swept under the rug of "Partial Amnesty." the war will not be put behind us. for the basic attitudes that made and perpetuated the war in Vietnam will remain unresolved. The atrocities will continue, while - justice is'proclaimed. We neither expect nor desire tickerdape parades for resistors coming home. Should we wait for Richard Nixon to come out of hiding at San Clemente, put his arms around the shoulders of a returning deserter, and, teary-eyed for the cameras, proclaim what a courageous man this is who, while most of the nation clamored behind its president for blood, turned his back on his whole training, perhaps his entire life to that day, and refused to .kill Vietnamese? That kind of guts, the kind of guts Don Baty had. the kind of guts once recognized and admired by so many professors, students and working people, seeks no spectacles, as proof of public appreciation. What those who resisted the United States government's war on Vietnam seek, and what they will find, are open arms, love, and the silent nod that exists inside so many of us that says “thank you." Thank you for your sacrifice, thank you for upholding the banner of humanity in the face of tyranny, and thank you, most of all, for keeping us human.

Wednesday, 9 February 1977 . The Spectrum . Page five �Open and shut University To the Editor. I am simply appalled and disgusted with what happened here on Thursday. This University s to make a decision at the right time, has probably caused an epidemic of aggravation. When 1 awoke at eight in the morning to get to my nine o’clock class, 1 turned on the radio to see if maybe there was a chance of no school. Just as I had figured, all of Buffalo was closed. Schools, industries, everything in Buffalo was shut. But that still didn’t snwer my question about UB. After keeping school open on Monday, I think UB is stupid enough to keep it open for anything. So I called WYSL, because I know how Norton information gets annoyed with the flood of calls asking the same question. Yes, once again UB is open for another day of learning. So I blindly walked my ten minute walk to school. And for what .’Who else would risk their life in this weather?Disgustedly, I went back home, practically in tears from the cold and wind. 1 laid down on my bed to catch my breath and as 1 did, the words that should have been announced at seven o’clock were finally poured out from the radio. “AH day classes on both-campuses of UB are now cancelled.” That was the smartest thing to do, but why couldn’t it have been decided three hours earlier. The above is just one story, but what about the students with cars and the faculty and staff who don’t live as close. The administration knew how treacherous the roads were. They should have realized it a hopeless cause to have classes on a There was no need to put all Thursday. like day those people onto the unsafe roads and streets of the city. ' . I am fully aware of the reasons for keeping school open. But is a day’s pay taken away from the vacation of the union workers worth the number of accidents that could have occurred?Is the fact that we use coal, instead of fuel a good reaison to get 30,000 faculty and students to a campus, only to find out someone changed his mind?

A few yeai;s ago few students would ask such constantly told that the till is empty, one tactic is to questions, at least in public. But times have changed. point out the fallacy of that contention by showing For the post-sixties generation, apathy and instances of waste. On as idealistic level, students in a very real indifference ahve become badges of honor. “Our campus is the most apathetic in the state,” more sense owe the larger community a debt. Locally, property tax dollars support vital services that than one student has boasted to me. If we were living in boom times, such attitudes benefit students directly and indirectly. State aid of might be reasonable. Times are hard, however, and various kinds ultimately comes from taxes paid by getting harder for all segments of the population. the larger community. The least students can do For sutdents the present is bad and the future looks while in school, the moralist may answer, is offer worse. So the simple answer to the campus something in return. Maybe a local property tax isolationist is: to sit back and ignore the larger issues study wins nearby allies or a probe of state is to invite disaster. To get involved is not to insure government waste wins allies from the broader community. Isn’t this reasonable? success or survival, but at least the chance is there. The bottom line is that there are nriany possible There are other answers. However. All across the nation students are fighting for full-citizenship rights justifications for student involvement in public the right to vote, for example. To struggle for the interest work. Besides the above reasons, students traditional right to vote to elect officials whose-jurisdiction can learn valuable, lasting skills which few the campus, is campus programs offer.

They pass are useful citizenship techniques that are difficult for through the campus more or less rapidly and assume students to master save through campus-based public lives beyond the school gate.

I would like to comment on the situation which occurred on Thursday, January 21 . By paying attention to reports on the local radio stations, anyone could have come to the conclusion that weather conditions warranted the cancellation of classes. The university did finally take the logical course of action and close its doors, but delayed until unfortunately those responsible sometime after 9 a.m. By this time many students had either gone to classes or were in transit. Considering the number of commuters and those having to ride the shuttle buses, the University’s failure to cancel classes promptly in such hazardous driving conditions is highly irresponsible. 1 myself am a commuter, living approximately thirty miles from the campuses. I waited an extra hour before leaving in the morning, to make sure that the University would be open. .1 had not assumed that the University would broadcast until mid-moming that it definitely would conduct classes, then suddenly close down. More important than the inconvenience- caused is the safety factor. During the last storm, on January 17, the University shpwed little regard for the safety of the students. Despite repeated warnings from doctors and from the sheriff’s department to avoid exposure to the exremely low wind chill factor, the'University remained open. Today it acted in like manner, subjecting both individual drivers and the shuttle buses to the treacherous road conditions, then adding insult to injury by closing down after classes had begun. I believe that The Spectrum could be of much service in investigating and reporting the following: 1) Who is responsible for the decision to cancel classes; 2) How do these persons decide when the University should be closed; 3) Why is there usually a delay in making this decision It is well-known by anyone who listens to the broadcasted lists of Cancellations that our University is uaully late in its announcement of closing. Considering the safety of the students, and the fact that the Weather Service predicts much more bad weather, our system must be made more efficient in its handling of class concellations. Mark A. Hovex - - Judaic Studies in danger To the Editor. It has recently come to my attention that the Judaic Studies program at this University is in danger of termination. The loss of this program I believe will be felt by all students. Yhe program is sufficiently broad to be relevent to all, yet narrow enough to hold special appeal to those Jewish students interested in their cultural heritage. The program ranges from antiquity to the modern Jewish experience, and deals with such topics as the Holocaust and the establishment of the state of Israel. If you too are concerned over the future of the Judiac Studies program please contact the acting Coordinator Dr. Michael Silverman at 636-2326 or 636-2154. He will suggest appropriate action. Howard Chubinsky A woman as Pope To the heritor The Pope recently stated no woman is to ever be a priest. I don’t really care to argue the point. However, in the spirit of show and tell only. 1 made the following curious “discovery.” It is a little known fact that a woman had actually served as Pope (yes, the Pope) of the Roman Catholic Chruch for over two years. A better subject for a novel could not be found. Joan was born in 818 in Britain, fell in love with a monk in Colgne and entered the priesthood guised as a man to remain close to him. He died and she continued in her good works until 853 A.D. when her virtue and popularity resulted in her being elected pope. As Pope John VII all was well for over a year until her womanly passions stirred again and she found herself pregnant by a young chamberlain. Not able to excuse herself from public eye to have the child in secrecy, she' was str.uck with pains of premature childbirth during a ceremonious ride on her horse She fell to the ground and before the masses gave birth to a son. First it was thought to be a miracle then realziation came they had been ripped off. This was a woman! In rage they tied her to the horse and dragged her through the streets. Then, in true biblical fashion, she was stoned to death. An untimely end to a career as pope during which she ordained 14 bishops, built 5 churches, consecrated King Louis II of France and authorized three books. Claims the source, (The People's Almanac, David Wallechinsky and Irving Wallace, Doubleday, 1975). The church cares not to admit her existence dismissing the whole as myth. Yet, over ISO church historians during the 13th and 17th century acknowledge her reign. Oh yes, the baby survived and grew up to be a bishop. Paul M Still v Page six . The Spectrum .

S 4. last Saturday in Schenectady. N.V. The Buffalo skaters brought a 4 4 lead into the third period, before the Union Dutchmen broke the game open with just five minutes remaining. Goals by Jack Katninska, Chris Bonn, and a pair by Ray Gruarin had paced I lie Bulls through the first two periods, along with some good goaltending by John Moore, and superb penalty killing by the specially unit. But the long layoff took its toll on the Buffalo skaters in the final period, as the Dutchmen swarmed all over them, and fired 23 shots at Moore, scoring five times. The Bulls were only able to. get four shots during the period. "We didn't have anything in the third period;, we lost it all.” said Buffalo coach Id Wright. We lost our conditioning edge because of all the time off the ice. he said. (The recent storm forced the team to cancel several ' , practices) According to Wright, the score really isn't indicative of the game itsell. The Bulls' mentor feels that the game was closer than the score shows “In the first period Union had the territorial edge, but we had it in the second. We missed two goals; I guess Lady Luck didn't shine on us." The Bulls, who were outshot 60—23 on the evening! are how 7—4 within Division II and 8—0 overall.

Youngstown Penguins, according to coach Lep Richardson., Instead, they had -more trouble with the referees, and lost 84—79. “My kids played so well.” Richardson said. “They played the best of any team I’ve had for four years here." Richardson noted the tine play of guard George Cooper (20 points) and of Jones, Lloyd reserves Mike DeVaux and Don Scott. Richardson said that he was very pleased with the way the team has been playing lately, especially since they've been able to do it on the road, too. “But those fouls just killed us," he said. The officials awarded Buffalo only 11 tree throws, compared to 26 for Youngstown, and the Penguins scored eleven more points that way.

Nine of the fifteen team members' journeyed to Hancock, Massachusetts, just across the New York State line. The troupe included four Nordic-Cross country skiers, four alpine skiers and an individual competing in both events. Coach Ed Stevens also made the trip. The team is designated a club and therefore is not affiliated with the athletic department. President John Farrell explained that the club drawback to major designation is that its funding is by allocated the Student Association (SA), and the team has suffered significant budget cuts. “At one time we had over $1,000 but in the past two years': its been cut down to $600. The $1,000 was not much compared to other schools, but we had enough to go to meets. Now with the $600 its hard to meet the costs of entry fees and travel expenses. “Equipment is problem. a traveled to West Point ,to another travel and meet new people.” added that “Though the team likes to have a -good time, when we have a race before us, everything becomes business.” When asked how he psyches himself for a race. Chambers replied that it 7 s when he’s standing in the starting gate and stares down at the course, “it hits you that now you have to do your best; this is what counts.” The final results of the RIM meet was RIM scoring the most points. Out of thirteen teams, the Buffalo ski team came in ninth. This past weekend, the team Chambers While the alpine skiers were racing, cross-country the competitors were examining the track. Mark Rybinski, the team’s best cross-country skier, commented dryly that the track “couldn’t even be considered a track’’ due to the icy conditions and wind. Luck, however, was with the team as Friday night 6 inches of the lovely white stuff fell. The Cross-Country race is the team’s best event. Cross-Country racing requires a great deal of stamina because it is in effect a marathon. The skiers are actually cross-country doing a combination of running and gliding. Unlike a track race, the racers must contend with the cold and the hills while wearing long skis. Skiers completing the six-mile race wore pained looks as some collapsed into chairs afterwards. It is not an easy feat to complete the race, but all the team members did finish. As was expected Rybinski finished strong, coming 45. in 8th in a field of After the meet’s final event, there was the customary awards banquet where the winners were announced, trophies given out and the racers mingled and rekxed. Rybinski, who is on the school track, trains mostly by running. He pointed out that this is probably one of the best ways to prepare for cross country-skiing. Coach Stevens explained that during the fall the entire team practices in Clark C.yn, going through meet, which was a disappointment for the team, especially because in attempting to computerize the cross-country scores, West Point the fouled up scores. The cross-country eyent was eliminated. This coming weekend (Feb. 11 and J2) the Buffalo team and Alfred University are hosting a meet af Holiday Valley and Allegheny State Park.

The team is not without spirit, and in the fall they held fund raising projects, with Buffalo area ski shops donating prizes. The team raised $300 which enabled them to buy badly needed racing helmets. The team'-also sold T-shirts with “UB SKI TEAM” silk screened on the front, raising another $ 100. Good conditions At the RPI meet, the events were divided into two groups, Alpine, which was held at Jimminy Peak, Massachusetts, on Friday, and Cross-Country, which took place Saturday near the RPI campus. The conditions on Friday were good to excellent, icy in .spots. Although the first event of the day, the Dual Slalom, proved treacherous for many of the Buffalo managed to finish with all four of its members scoring. Of seventy entries the team placed almost dead center. The three top team members were John Jaremko, John Farrell, and racers, Dan House, finishing 30, 31, and 40.

Fifty students and staff were forced to spend last Friday night at the John O’Brien Law Building. All managed to return to their homes on Saturday.

Of course, due to the large number of these excursions, people were fortunate most enough to know someone who got —continued on page 2— Reasoning behind a Friday opening Many students questioned the logic of opening the University today. Some felt that it should have been opened when the storm while others insisted that it broke on Wednesday or Thursday remain closed for the entire week. University Information Director James Desantis said that the school could not have opened before Thursday, due to treacherous weather conditions, a shortabe of plows, and impenetrable snow drifts. With the precarious state of the weathet on Wednesday evening, administrators were afraid to schedule a Thursday opening. In fact, a Friday reopening was up in the air until late Wednesday afternoon. Meanwhile, administrators chose to reinstate classes on Friday, as opposed to Monday, for a number of reasons. Desantis said the prime factor was that the University “was trying to salvage as many classes as possible.” Desantis also said that since Friday is payday for the many numbered staff and faculty, many of whom could not reach a bank this week, it was a better day to reopen the Univejsity. Pay checks and research checks are already in, and the payroll department began work on Wednesday. The University, which is heated by coal, would not conserve that much fuel be remaining closed during the weekend, Desantis said. He added that there was a possibility of basement pipes exploding in Main Campus buildings if the heat was not soon increased. — — �Regain momentum JUST 10 MINUTES FROM CAMPUS AT COLVIN EXIT OF YOUNGMANN So.

Sex questionnaire upheld (CPS) New York City school authorities who had suppressed dissemination of a student sex questionnaire by a high school editor were recently dismayed when Federal Judge Constance Baker Motley ruled that they had violated the editor’s First Amendment right to freedom of expression.

Meanwhile, New York State Senate Majority Leader William T. Conklin introduced a bill that would require foreign diplomats to pay a registration fee for their license plates. According to Sen. Conklin, the city loses five and one-quarter million dollars each year to its large population of diplomats, who are immune to parking fines and registration fees. Sen. Conklin was quoted in the New York Daily News as saying: “We’re talking here in terms of approximately 240,000 unpaid parking tickets annually. That would make our city’s foreign ‘the of the guests kings scofflaws.’ ” Raging ad campaign (CPS-NATIONAL ON CAMPUS REPORT) “Why do the Heathens You rage?” haven’t been probably too perplexed by that question but you may have wondered who is behind the continuing ads that make that query.

The old mark of about 126 inches was surpassed sometime back in December, and the present total exceeds 160 and is climbing. However, for Buffalo residents the most recent storm has meant a number of other “firsts,” and, bad or good, the experience of a lifetime. Buffalo Police Commissioner Thomas R. Blair commented, “It brought oui the best and the worst in us." While hundreds of volunteers worked to aid stranded victims of the storm cooking, delivering medicines and food, rescuing stranded motorists widespread looting struck downtown establishments. So many individuals were interred in the Erie County Holding Center Tuesday night that officials were forced to release 20 persons due to dwindling food supplies, and inaccessibility of roads leading to other facilities. what a storm!’ height, stranded in their cars, victims of carbon monoxide poisoning, heart attacks, and exposure. Many others, however, were saved by sympathetic households and “relief stations” set up in churches and schools. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski declared the city in a “state of emergency” Tuesday morning, making automobile travel for non-essential purposes a misdemeanor offense, subject to imprisonment or fine. As of Wednesday night, 35 people had been charged with violation of the order.

Compounding the snow paralysis is the fuel shortage that has struck the area. Residents have been requested to turn their thermostats down to 55 degrees at night and 65 during the day to conserve fuel; however, these conservation measures have either been inadequate, or not enough Buffalonians have complied.

Cheap turkey roast A retired chemical engineer for Union Carbide who resides in Cheektowaga made a $60 solar oven that reaches an average 300-325 degrees. He learned how by taking a University course on environment and energy last winter while living in Arizona. He and other members of his energy class formed a solar energy group. Each built either an oven, a water heater, or hot air heater (which could also be used for cooling at night or drying clothes). Because this was an energy saving project, they used recycled materials. With the help of four mirrors and a thermostat, he and his wife cook dinner, roast turkeys, or bake cakes with the heat captured by the sun’s rays. They say the food even tastes better; but, in any case, it’s cheaper: running a solar oven is free. Many people in the Buffalo area are attempting the same, since solar technology is available at a very reasonable cost and easily applicable at the small consumer level.

Though people say this area is not conducive to solar heating, he has maintained a table and figures that with about 96 sq. ft. of absorption surface at $7 sq. ft., he should be able to supply 40 to 50 percent of the heat for the house. “You don’t need a bright sun to get solar energy; it can be done on hazy or cloudy days.” With the opening of a new bank branch in 1975. Western New York had its first commercial building that incorporates solar energy in its heating and air conditioning system. Though it held a 75 percent higher building cost than a conventionally the designed building, construction costs were recouped because of lower energy costs in heating and cooling the building. The bank management feels that after a year of use the benefits and the ecological long-range financial savings make the added costs worthwhile. Bob J..Tharpe of the General Electric Company’s Valley Forge Space Center said in an interview with the Buffalo Evening News last January that Western New York may be one of the places where solar energy will begin to find large-scale use in the early 1980’s because of the high and rising cost of other energy supplies in the region, “Weke talking about areas fhke Buffalo] in which natural gas had been ..restricted for-new hidings Where the region has bean driven basically to an electric .

Various members of the Research Group have formulated an energy education group that hopes to have an energy exhibition in the Buffalo area this summer.

The first step is to register dissatisfaction with your bill to the National Fuel Gas Co. There is a potentially endless list of reasons why it could be too high. 1) You smell gas around the house, near gas appliances or the stove, or especially, near your gas meter, wherever it may be. 2) Your meter is especially old (or very new) and seems to be functioning improperly, giving perhaps, much higher readings than, for example, the meter for upstairs which could be exactly the same size apartment kept at about the same temperature. 3) You are consistently at home when told that the meter man will come, but he never seems to show up. You may protest this and/or demand to read your own meter. 4) You are on the Balanced Billing Plan, paying an identical amount every month of the year. You could protest an average payment that seems too high or too low. The first case is needless extra money out of your pocket even though you get it back at the end of the year, the second case could result in a whopping end of the year biH, as the gas company totals up the year’s total shortfall. 5) Though it would probably be of little help with this year’s cdlfl temperatures, you may ttave records of previous years’ hWVmgs for the samerhOuse.

Everyone is welcome. • Sportspaige by Paige Miller The snow couldn’t have come at a worse time for tire Buffalo Athletic Department. On the court, for possibly the first time this year, all teams were playing well. During the live days before the snow hit, Buffalo's seven varsity teams had combined lor a 14 and 3 record. The week-long, layoff left numerous games cancelled, and Buffalo's Athletic Directors’ faced the monumental task of reorganizing the school’s schedules. Tonight’s events, women’s swimming and women’s basketball, both against Potsdam at Clark Hall, remain iffy. Buffalo’s men’s basketball team still managed to practice almost every day during the snow emergency. Most of the teani'inembers live in the dorms or within walking distance, and Coach Leo Richardson reported 100 percent attendance for the practices. The basketball team’s 12-day interval between games (from the January 25th game against Milwaukee to tomorrow's scheduled game at Youngstown) was cause of concern. “I don’t think it (the layoffs] is going to help us,” Richardson said. “If anything, it’s going to hurt. Our kids were rpully looking forward to the Fairfield game [January 2‘)th|. They were ready to play." The team had been playing its best all year, winning two of their last three games, after winning only one game the rest of the year. The women's basketball team, which had four games cancelled, was also playing well when the bli/./ard hit. A 57 54 win at Fredonia on January 25th was the team's first victory of the year. Coach Liz Cousins looked at the layoll dillerenlly than Richardson did. “The teams we play, like Oswego and Potsdam, were all hit with the same weather as us.” she said. "The layoll is going to hurt everyone.” The women’s basketball team only missed two days of practice because of the storm, and many players made it to practice by walking. Many others live in the dotms. Buffalo’s hockey team is still on a six-game winning streak, but they face Division 11 power Union tomorrow. The Bulls upset Union earlier this year. However, since the hockey team practices at the Tonawanda Sports Center, the players could not walk to the rink and so the ban on driving cancelled several practices. Fven the baseball team (that’s right, baseball) had to cancel practice, because the Bubble was inaccessible. � � � * * Miscellaneous: The Youngstown basketball team, which the Bulls are scheduled to play tomorrow, is 13 and 4. Two years ago. in the teams' last meeting, a half-court shot by Youngstown sent the game into overtime, and then Youngstown won the game at the bu/./cr in overtime. The only game to be rescheduled at this writing was the men's basketball game against Canisius. The game will be played February 21 at the Koessler Athletic Center. It was originally scheduled lor the Niagara Fall Convention Center as part of a Big Four doubleheader. This gives Canisius a home court advantage, something that made Leo Richardson a bit unhappy. Union’s hockey team recently demolished Division I power New Hampshire. They’ll be looking for revenge against Buffalo, especially since the two teams engaged in a bloody fight,last year. Women’s basketball guards Clyde O’Malley and Regina Fra/ier combined for 15 steals and 31 points against Fredonia. Forwards Paula Hirls, Nan Harvey and Barb Fislar each had eight points.

The meeting centered on problems between the Black Student Union (BSU) and SA which have peaked in recent weeks over Speigel’s alleged assault last month by three BSU members, and SA’s audit of BSU’s use of student activity fees. The fight in the SA office resulted in one student being the indefinite expelled and suspension of two others. Student Ora Clark moved Senator unsuccessfully that SA protest the expulsion and suspensions. It failed by 14 votes to eight. BSU the spokesman throughout meeting expressed their dismay that no action was taken against Spiegel. Most of the hostility came over disucssion of intimidation with SA claiming they were the victims and minority spokesman claiming they were intimidated by SA. Lack of respect the discussion Throughout students many argued that this was not a racial issue, but one caused by a lack of respect between the two groups and a breakdown of communications. Acting BSU President Walter Haddock told an unusally large audience that relationships between SA and BSU were “strained to the point where SA is incapabale of dealing with BSU.” SA President Steve Schwartz observed on the same subject, “I’d be a fool to say that prejudice doesn’t exist in SA or BSU.” Representatives of BSU and PODER also voiced complaints over the audit of BSU’s travel funds. SA felt it was necessary to look into a discrepancy between the amount of money advanced and the number' of receipts returned. After an initial investigation conducted by a committee non-professional headed by Neil Seiden, SA Assistant Treasurer, and Arthur Lalonde, Sub Board Treasurer, SA froze all advance money for BSU. Outraged by this decision, BSU requested a professional audit supervised by the administration. Dr. Anthony Lorenzetti, Assistant to the Vice President for Student Affairs, ordered the audit which started yesterday and should be completed in a few days. Once the audit is completed, representatives of SA and the BSU will be called in, and a final audit will be presented. Other groups affected The freeze also affected the of minority organizations PODER, AZTECA, and NACAO, until Wednesday afternoon, when it was lifted for all minority BSU. except organizations PODER spokesmen said SA never took into account the affect of the action on PODER’s activity. BSU spokesmen made a large part of their argument the “white domination” in SA, The Spectrum and administration, and the daily verbal intimidation of non-whites. contend that the They confrontation between Spiegel and the suspended student, John was a Lott, “one-on-one” situation in which both should be punished equally. SA Minoirty Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity commented, “Violence in society is not new, you [SA] intimidated us to the point of violence.” Acting BSU President Haddock stated, “Ass-whipping is not over until you treat me with respect. If I was there I would have whipped his ass too.” Members of SA contend that Spiegel was the victim of a beating, and that there is no reason he should be suspended. Both Schwartz and Spiegel did not answer the accusations. They said they had been advised by the prosecuting attorney not to discuss the case until the end of the trial in criminal court.

Graduates’union demands negotiations, will ‘act’ by R. Gilbert Staff Writer Spectrum The Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) formally notified the University Administration yesterday that it must begin to negotiate the 16 demands formulated by Union members last semester. In a letter to President Robert Ketter and Acting President Albert Somit, GSEU President Howard Kling further declared that the Union will be “compelled to act” if its demand for negotiations is not satisfactorily answered by February 4. ‘If you refuse Kling enclosed in the GSEU demand package a breif letter which stated, “We know that without our intervention, the deplorable conditions which give rise to these complaints will continue. Without the urging of graduate students themselves, your administration will do nothing. We can’t be expected to believe your position has changed or that any of your good intentions will be translated into deeds.” The letter concluded, “If you refuse to negotiate, the GSEU will be compelled to act . . . Graduate student employees. . . will be forced to take appropriate action.” Though unclear as to what action it would take should the Administration not respond by the February 4 deadline, the possibility of a strike referendum was raised by the Union. In the event of a yes vote, the likelikhood of an ensuing strike by the Union. In the event of a yes vote, the been widely speculated as possible. Job action for Union recognition and other demands have been successfully carried out elsewhere in the country, notably at the University of Wisconsin in 1975. Options, demands listed In a letter to all graduate student employees, the Union has announced a “critical” Union council meeting on February 6, to determine what actions need be taken in light of the Administration’s response, whatever it may be. Among the possibilities listed for consideration in the event of an unsatisfactory reply, were rallies and demonstrations, informational picketing of University buildings, and the holding of a strike referendum. Included in the detailed demand package submitted to the Administration were: a minimum wage of $5490 up from the present average of about $3000, which was set in 1968; a continuation of tuition waivers now threatened to be cut or eliminated;restoration of graduate employee positions cut in 1975; a reduction in present unmanageable class sizes; implementation of Affirmative Action guidelines; demands for safe working conditions, worker’s health, accident and compensation coverage, insurance; and of the unemployment crucially, recognition Union. Strike vote last spring In a similar situation last year, Ketter met with GSEL) representatives and later responded to a list of five demands with claims that he had little authority to address the grievances, but could express his “concern.’’ The GSEU claimed that Ketter was “stalling” and consistently unsatisfactory, and called for a strike vote after a Week of demonstrating and picketing. Amidst letters by Ketter to graduate employees telling them of his requests for increased state graduate student employee funding, and after a sudden Reporter article that warned of the possible loss of their tax exempt status should graduate students unionize, the GSEU proposal to strike failed by 17 votes. Of the approximately 935 state-funded graduate student employees here, 514 voted in that referendum, and though a strike vote was favored 308 to 206, the minimum 325 required to strike was not reached. Despite the proposal’s defeat, Union members at that time were bouyant at the comparatively large vote turnout, and the extreme closeness of the referendum, wherein 60 percent of those voting favored a strike. Conflict likely Initial moves in the developing Union/University conflict do not indicate the likelihood that negotiations will occur easily. GSEU’s status as an organization has been central to the dispute between the two parties throughout the last semester. The Union, attempting to force the University to bargain collectively with graduate student employees, has sought recognition as a union from the state’s Public Employee Relations Board (PERB). The University is contesting GSEU’s petition, and in order not to “prejudice” the case, Somit has refused to officially meet with members of the Union. . . . legal problems are involved if Dr. Somit meets with what is still presently neither a legally constituted union, nor a recognized student group,” wrote Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow in a letter to The Spectrum last October. “ Still no meeting PERB sources at the time, however, told The Spectrum that it would, in fact, be legal for Somit to meet with GSEU representatives, even during PERB deliberations on the GSEU petition for recognition. GSEU has since withdrawn its petition, when it became apparent that PERB would not recognize the Union, on the grounds that it was not a state-wide organization. A meeting with Somit, according to Union sources, has yet to occur, leaving the Union stalemated, unless “action” is taken. Given rising inflation, possible large increases in class sizes due to the course load controversy* and the final revocation since last year of unemployment insurance and worker’s compensation for graduate student employees, Union spokespersons believe that graduate employee sentiment continues to increase in favor of some effective job action. �Confused registration for phys-ed classes Financial aid deadline Financial aid applications for 1977-78 are now available at the Financial Aid Office, 312 Stockton Kimball Tower. The deadline to return financial statements to the College Scholarship Service is February 1, 1977. Form UB must be reutmed to the Financial Aid by Jeffrey M. Strumeyer Office by March 1. Undergraduate EOF students should obtain their forms from their EOF advisors in Diefendorf Hall. Spectrum As a result of a misunderstanding between the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction (RAI), and Admissions and Records, a plan to facilitate the registration of seniors in physical education classes was not implemented. The program, devised by RAI and the Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), called for the closing of all RAI courses after the processing of senior preregistration forms. However, nobody at Admissions and Records was notified of the plan, and it was not set in motion according to Assistant Director for Registration and Systems Development, Richard Canale. Richard Dremuk, director of Admissions and Records, stated the first time he heard about the plan was when he read about it in The Spectrum. Drop-in center Counseling offered in Amherst Starting Monday, the Drop-In Counseling Center is expanding to the Amherst Campus.

Increased visibility Staff Writer No participation Both Dremuk and Canale said even if they had been notified in advance, the process devised by RAI and DUE could not have been used. The halting of the registration process in order to close courses which had openings remaining would have been impractical. Dremuk and Canale stressed the basic problem with seniors not getting gym classes was their lack of participation in advanced registration. According to Dremuk, of four thousand seniors in this University, only eighteen hundred turned in their advance forms before the December deadline. Jacqualyn Cramer, Senior Academic Advisor, an instrumental force in planning the preregistration proposal explained DUE was responsible for advertising the procedure and RAI was supposed to make the final arrangements for the plan’s implementation. Sal Esposito, chairman of RAI and Diebold, coordinator of Basic Instruction, expressed disappointment that the program was not carried out. There are still approximately thirty places open in RAI courses. Diebold stated that in order to enroll in one of these courses, students should either contact the instructor or come to her Clark Hall office for a list of the open classes.

The fee structure calls for payment of $10 per hour of performance time and five dollars per hour of technical rehearsal time (rehearsals requiring special lighting, sound, etc.). There is also a $250.00 rental fee that is paid by organizations not affiliated with the University, and overtime costs that must be paid if a custodial staff is needed to clean up after the performance. Esther Swartz, presidential assistant for Cultural Affairs (the division of the University, responsible for the theater) explained that the money is needed to pay for maintenance of the light setup, an elaborate and expensive computerized system which includes replacement of filaments for special light bulbs costing as much as $50,00 each. A technical manager is needed to operate the lighting system and also to be responsible for the the theater. utilization , at However, when the budget was drawn up, funds were not provided for the position or the replacement of equipment. The University has managed to provide half the money to pay for the manager’s salary as well as his office and telephone, but the rest of the' money had to be found - elsewhere. Thus, the fee structure implemented SASU condemns Carey budget cuts by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor State University (SUNY) student leaders have sharply condemned Governor Hugh Carey’s proposed budget, which contains more of the massive cutbacks absorbed by SUNY last year. Leaders of the Student Association of the Stafe University (SASU) have begun plans to mobilize SUNY students against the budget’s acceptance. Carey’s proposal calls for SUNY’s share of the state budget to drop from 21.6 percent to 19,7, and would entail the los? of 678 positions in SUNY. SUNY has already lost 2,021 positions in the past two years, according to SASU, and Carey has slated SUNY for the eighth -consecutive student/faculty ratio rise. Also called for is a $41 million Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) reduction. SASU Legislative Director Joel Packer called the proposed SUNY budget “indefensible and opposed to the public interest.” Carey last year said that he planned to “alter the pattern of State spending for higher education so that greater emphasis is placed upon opportunities for the individual student and less on institutional support.” This year’s budget does just the opposite,” declared Packer. Regressive Most distressing to SASU officials is the proposed TAP reduction which is compounded by the new eligibility of City University (CUNY) students, since tuition was just instituted there this year. Thus, the same number of SUNY students, plus students of CUNY, will be competing for less money than was available in the past just for SUNY. SASU President Frank Jackalone called .the TAP reduction a “regressive” action, which increases the financial burdens of the SUNY and CUNY students from the lowest income groups. The largest cut in TAP benefits will be experienced by the students receiving the maximum payment of $1500. These students will lose $100 of their award. “The Governor’s For the past several months, the Katherine Cornell Theatre has been the source of conflict, originating in the fee structure budget cynically singles out those with the least amount of political influence and disposable income to absorb the state’s financial problems during the current economic crisis,” charged Jackalone. SASU also accused the Govenor of harboring an obvious “pro-private college bias” in setting his education support priorities. Better planning SASU contrasted the “regressive” TAP cuts, which will predominantly affect public university students, with the recent 5.8 percent increase in the private school share of Bundy Aid. Bundy Aid awards funds to schools based on the number of degrees they award. SASU noted that New York State ranks first nationally in support for private higher education. In 1974-76, 34 states contributed nothing to their private systems. During the same period, SUNY’s funding increased less than one percent, while in other states public school funding increased up to twenty-four percent. Piche said that SASU is beginning its opposition to Carey’s cutbacks much earlier than last year, and h, opes they will be more effectively organized. An “Organizing Conference is planned for the second weekend in February, she said, in which efforts will be discussed. Last year’s budget fight got underway late partly because the Spring conferences were wracked with internal controversy over Executive Vice President Betty Pohanka’s ouster from office, when it was revealed that she technically was not a student, and therefore could not be an officer in a student organization. However, Piche believes that SASU’s efforts last year helped prevent Governor Carey’s proposed TAP cut of ten percent. I hey could not prevent the cutbacks because “things were not planned well in advance.” This year, she said, the organization “is more on top of things,” and believes there is “much more student awareness” in SUNY concerning the importance of SUNY’s budget cutbacks. Four lobbying “trips” are also tentatively planned, she said, in which busloads of students from each of the four SUNY regions will travel to Albany to speak with members of the State Legislative in opposition to Carey’s proposed cutbacks. Letter writing campaigns, rallies, and teach-ins are also planned. by was created to provide the money. technical rehearsal remaining amount hour, the of money would be covered. However, last semester the theater did not net income the anticipated and therefore had difficulty breaking even, Pietruszka said, adding there was a good chance of making up the difference this semester since approximately 69 events will be performed in the theater. My heart Pietruszka feels part of the problem was caused by lack of good management and planning. “My heart is really in that theater and it hurts me to see it just sit there; it’s too bad because a lot of good things could come out of it,” he said. The decision to charge the fees was made in July. Both the Colleges and the Student Association (SA) have complained that the decision was- made without representation by both groups. Lee Perres, SA Student Affairs Director, stated that SA is against the fee structure. “Our main complaint is that no one from SA was contacted about the fee structure meeting.” He added that “students themselves could better decide which student groups, including the Colleges, could afford to pay for the theater and which could not.” Free access Due to its location at the Ellicott Complex on the Amherst Campus, the theater is primarily used by the Colleges. Irving Spitzberg, dean of the Colleges, feels that the Colleges should have free access to the theater, especially College B (the college Cost estimates John Pietruszka, the technical whose salary is in manager how explained the question, amount of money needed for theater operations is established.

Primary function Concerning College B’s fee Spitzberg structure problem, pointed out that a large part of College B’s function revolves around the theater. College B’s budget is at a level less than one tenth that of the Music or Theater Departments, and the fee would severly cut back on College B’s activities. College B’s Master Carlo Pinto and Residential Coordinator Bob Baron both asserted these activities are needed to justify the College’s existence and that the imposed fee structure prevents the College from being an active unit within the University system. College B Spitzberg feels should be accorded certain special privileges, since it utilizes the theater more than any other organization. The College’s program includes a classical music a r t i s t-in-residence series, performances, which are held weekly, a new pop, rock jazz, folk, comedy and modern dance concert series and several play a, productions. Although University foundation has advanced the money for the classical music' series and the artist-in-residents series, there are still new programs that must be paid up.

Page three �Walter Mondale Symbolic trip assures loyalty to Westem nations by Robert Coles Spectrum Staff Writer For a man who didn’t want to becbme President because he got tired of all those motels and greasy foods with which a politician must contend during a campaign, Walter Mondale has faired rather well. Unlike Frank Church, he didn’t even push for the vice-presidential position, and of the throughout the ' proceedings Democratic convention this summer, after it had been decided he was to be Jimmy Carter’s running mate, reporters kept wondering whether or not he could actively campaign, if indeed he really wanted the job at all. On top of this, critics kept asserting he was the wrong choice, for he was far too liberal and looked and acted a too much like a 49-year old boy scout quality of which Church was accused. Well, boy scout or not, events have placed Mbndale within the framework of supreme, national prominence, which is clearly demonstrated by his symbolically — important nine-day trip to Western Europe and Japan. This mission .not only casts Mondale as a major figure in the new administration but, more importantly, it signals to world leaders just where Carter’s immediate priorities lie. Symbolism of trip The trip itself is highly symbolic. First, it comes at the beginning of Carter’s term. No sooner had the inauguration decorations come down than Mondale was off and running, and it should be, apparent that little substantive material can be accomplished so early in the term. In fact, Carter had already announced that, among other things, the Mondale mission was to lay groundwork for the more important economic summit meeting proposed to take place no one is certain where it’s to be held later on this year. No doubt, any substantive, diplomatic accomplishments will be relegated to that meeting in which Carter is expected to attend. — — 0 Israeli I For gems from the Jewish Bible mmmrnmHear <•*% . Theatre — Assurances ' In similar terms, the rest of Carter’s cabinet, including Vance, will have to take a back seat to Mondale, and though a division of labor will be invoked in Carter’s foreign affairs policy, there is nothing that marks the degree to which this formula will be involved in ranking the importance of persons in his government. Thus, as partially demonstrated in this visit, Walter Mondale could well remain a central figure in matters other than foreign policy. Parallel to picking these countries as high priority choices is the idea of reinforcing certain “assurances,” a term that Carter seems to be repeating quite consistently these days. In addition to symbolic intent, Mondale’s journey is certainly ond'.that’s designed to reinforce certain “assurances” that might be in some « 8 & 10:30 pm lFM-97 Harvey & Corky preseni & LASER ROCK | "Live on Stage" A Total Sigh & Sound Trip $4.00 & 3.00 & OUTLAWS $6.50, $6, WBUF & & 8:00 pm $5.00 • - The Student Directory Students only! 5.00 Discount $ Harvey & - Corky Offer good for Spring Semester 1 977.

Feb. 4th Increased appropriations But these fears have been and are in the process of being obliterated. In fact, since his election victory, Carter has bent over backwards to accommodate those powerful and deeply entrenched groups who may have been jittery. And, as Russell Baker has observed, “the great powers that created the society so unsatisfactory to the multitudes are returning to Washington almost in tact.” In domestic terms, the evidence for this can be observed through Carter’s conservative cabinet choices. In foreign affairs the evidence, again, points back to the Mondale mission where he is assuring Joseph Luns and Alex Haig of NATO that though Carter will cut defense spending, he will not only continue but increase U.S. appropriatipns to that North Atlantic Alliance. He is also assuring the European business community that Carter wants to coordinate and work Planting the seeds Although economics underscores the entire theme of Mondale’s trip, as it underscores the major concerns of foreign policy in the future; there are other issues involved. For instance, he will be talking to Prime Minister Callahan of Great Britian about Zimbabwe (Rhodesia) and the recent rejected peace proposals by Ian Smith. He will be talking to Prime Minister Takeo Fukuda of Japan about Japan’s opposition to a reduced U.S. troop presence in Korea. Indeed there is much ground to cover within the nine-day limitation. In view of this, perhaps Walter Mondale is performing the job of a Johnny Appleseed whose task is mainly to plant the seeds and not to be responsible for their growth. In terms of growth, we’ll have to leave that duty to a former farmer who’s much better at that sort of thing Jimmy Carter. Membership Drive 1 I TOMORROW NIGHl AT QFM-97 E.C.C.

Moreover, part of his assurance will be to endorse continued economic dominance among industrialized democracies at the expense of the North-South, rich nation-poor nation “dialogue” now underway in Paris. Mondale will no doubt be assuring the industrialized democracies that the U.S. will continue to prevent developing nations from implementing their increasingly sophisticated strategies to wrest their fair share of world natural resources and raw materials that the West sorely needs.

Specifically, upon Carter’s nomination and up until his election victory, some established leaders, as well as military staff behind NATO of both hemispheres, were worried about Carter’s talk of revamping and altering the government. What did this mean, and how far would he go? They thought he might go too far Left. Big business of both hemispheres were worried about his promised spending programs, reduced tax loopholes, corporate shelters and other privileges. Europe was jittery because of Carter’s announced desire to cut defense spending by 5 to 7 billion dollars, this coming at a time when Soviet military buildup along Germany and Eastern Europe has, seemingly, intensified. In short, all the centers of Western power, the bullwark of modern capitalism, were worried that Carter would be too liberal and soft or, as Bob Dole once suggested, that he- would be a Senator McGovern in rnrngm I (fii Century The New — | Phone 875-4265 • Secondly, we should ask why the Secretary of State, Cyrus Vance, was not chosen to go. Afterall, he is the diplomat-in-chief, and this trip is indeed diplomatic. So, why shouldn’t this trip be Vance’s and not the Vice President’s? By sending Mondale to Europe instead and then by sending Vance to the Middle East and Moscow next month, as well as in his' pledging that “others” administration would also go on representative, diplomatic trips, Carter has apparently constructed a division of labor method in connection with foreign affairs. No more Kissingeresque, one-man shows. Mondale’s trip is symbolic of this intent. Third, as noted earlier, Mondale is visiting Western Europe and Japan, not South Africa or Korea. The choice'of these particular countries is symbolic in terms of the what is uppermost in Carter’s mind Western democracies. Furthermore, these countries are so uppermost in his mind that Tie’s sending his most important personified representative to visit them through Walter Mondale. Thus, for now, the rest of the world, including Moscow, will have to take a back seat. . £ Sponsored by Sub-Board One he. Funded by Mandatory Student Activities Fees - Friday, 28 January 1977 g �Boycott requested A coffee drinker’s crisis by Susan Schacter Spectrum Staff Writer n Eleanor Guggenheim, New York City Commissioner of Consumer Affairs, has called for a one week nationwide boycott of coffee in protest of steadily rising retail prices. Formulated last fall, the boycott began on Wednesday, January 27th in an attempt to stem a price increase that has slowly crept upward since 1973, but amounted to more than 60 percent last year alone. Most of the coffee consumed by Americans today is imported from Brazil, leaving wholesale purchasers here at the mercy of plantation Brazilian coffee owners, who are responsible for the initial rise in prices. The owners attributed the high rise in coffee prices to a frost in Brazil that they claim destroyed half of their crop. Research, by Jean Endee, Consumer Affairs Public Relations secretary, suggests that wholesale prices went up the day after the temperature went down. At this time there was certainly enough coffee to supply public demand; thus it was not a sufficient reason for the jump in coffee prices she stated. Endee further suspected that there is even enough coffee at the present time to meet the cravings huge of the coffee-drinking population in this country. Cut in half Fifty-two percent of the New York City residents recently polled by Consumer Affairs were either boycotting coffee or cutting down their drinking habits by 50 percent. The City’s the administration supported boycott in a manner of speaking when it reduced by 30 percent its budget allocation for the purchase of coffee in city institutions. The movement has subsequently spread throughout the United States and is being supported by restaurants and supermarkets as well as many individuals. On an international level, countries such as Australia, Canada, and the Virgin Islands, have registered support for the * boycott. Unfortunately, local Buffalo participation is minimal., In fact, the only upstate area to have taken real interest in the boycott is Syracuse, where numerous supermarkets and small stores are urging their customers to buy tea instead of coffee by lowering the price of tea to wholesale value. No Buffalo support There is no organized support in Buffalp for the boycott, either in the.'brty or on this campus. With the exception of the Tops supermarket chain, stores have not shown any interest or concern for the boycott. The manager of University Plaza Super Duper said the only signs indicating a public awareness of the coffee crisis is the stampede of coffee drinkers rushing to stock up on coffee. Jim Decarlo, an employee of the Buffalo branch of the Board of Consumer Affairs stated, “We feel that if someone wants to boycott, it is their own decision.” The University has witnessed few staunch supporters of the When asked their boycott. feelings, many students answered with embarrassed giggles and confessions that they knew about it, or they nothing dismissed the question with a quick nod and said, “Yeah, 1 guess I’ll support it.” On the other hand, there were some students who displayed were serious about assisting in the boycott. No drop at Food Service A cashier in the Rathskeller said there was no apparent drop in the purchase of coffee and Richmond Food Service Manager Robert Dieckman said, “People at Food Service have already purchased the coffee for this semester so we won’t be able to support the boycott through a reduced purchase of coffee. We fully extend our support on a personal level, however, we will in no way influence the students to support the boycott.” While disclosing her research, Endee stressed that the consumer must be patient because it is not expected that the boycott will be effective immediately. If enough people participate the week of the 27th and then reduce their consumer has paid the price for whims of big business,” she stressed. “This boycott has been organized to prove to the international office that consumers will no longer tolerate prices going up. When agreements are drawn up the consumer must be considered.” Commissioner Guggenheim has recently been attending meetings in Washington where solutions to the present situation are being discussed. Meetings with Brazilian leaders will be part of the up and coming agenda. It is hoped that the matter will soon be settled, permitting Americans to return to an inexpensive morning pot of consumption by half, it is assumed that within a few months, people will witness a drop in the cost of coffee. The most basic economic law states that as the demand for a good goes down the price goes down. With coffee, however, as with other food products, controlled by international agri-business, it is possible that this law could breakdown.

Search goes on for alternate energy Editor’s note: The following article is the fourth in a series submitted by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) on alternative energy sources. This article deals with the implementation of Solar Panels and the harnessing energy contained in the wind. by Marshall Ausuebel Special to The Spectrum A windmill in your backyard? Solar panels on your roof? Everyone has heard of these possibilities, but only in the context of “exotic energy sources of the future.” Are these really the fuels of the future? Before the Rural Electrification Program of the 1940’s, every farm had a windmill to provide all the mechanical some power necessary and electrical power. As cheap utility electric power spread across the country, windmills were put to pasture. Now, fossil fuels are expensive and destructive. Whole mountains are stripped to get to a seam of coal. Waste from nuclear power plants must be guarded for thousands of years. Are you willing to pay? The sun always shines Thousands of people across this country are discovering the joys of alternate energy. Readers of Popular Science are building their own solar panels to heat their homes. Windmills are again being built to provide cheaper power. Even space satellites are being considered to transmit the xrwer of the sun. In Colorado, energy consultant Ron Shore built a solar heating system for his home. Using a 5300 gallon tank and aluminum panels on the roof, the system keeps his heated subzero in home temperatures in the Rockies at a cost of only $2 per month (to run a small pump). The system which cost $3000 to build can be repaid in 30 months of winter, since normally he would pay $100 per month for utility heat. Most systems available can provide most of the heat necessary to warm a home in winter and cool it in summer by running the system in reverse. The major disadvantages now are high installation costs and a lack of from banks, which support provide mortgages and loans.

Wilson Clark, in Energy for Survival warns of the great danger this satellite poses. If knocked out of alignment by a meteorite or another satellite, its microwave beam could sweep across the country and kill or injure people in its path. Many people who will not buy a microwave oven for their kitchen because of radiation will have no that leaks out control if a satellite is placed in space. — And the wind always blows Utilities are interested in large scale, centralized wind generators today as the costs of fossil fuels skyrocket. Wind systems are one source of energy that cause the least damage to the environment. The widespread use of windmills before the Rural Electrification demonstrated the Program feasibility of decentralized power and demonstrated one could have power without being hooked up to a utility’s meter. So the utilities to push for are unlikely decentralized wind systems.

My former landlord is withholding my $100.00 security deposit, claiming I left the apartment iri “poor condition.” I’ve tried to reason with him, hut he refuses to negotiate what can do to get my money back? A. Since reason won’t work, you might want to file suit in Small Claims Court where an individual may sue for an amount up to $1000.00. This is a relatively simple procedure that may be done at a minimum expenses (about $4.00 filing fee). In order to file a claim at Small Claims Court, you must know the exact address of the person, or corporation, you wish to sue. Your claim must be filed with the Clerk’s Office in the locality in which the defendant (the person or business you are suing) lives. For instance, if your landlord lives in Tonawanda, you must file there; [however, if he maintains a business in the city of Buffalo, you may, if you choose, file in City Court]. When you file your claim, a hearing date will be set. Cases are generally heard within four to six weeks. The clerk will send a summons by registered mail to the defendant this notifies the defendant that there is a claim against him and that he will automatically lose the case if he fails to appear in court. All Small Claims Court cases are heard and decided by a judge or arbitrator. If a party desires a jury trial, the case will be transferred to the Civil Division. It is not necessary to be represented by a lawyer in Small Claims Court [except for corporations, which must be represented by an attorney]. It is necessary to come well prepared with any witnesses (or signed and notarized statements] and/or “evidence” that will support your claim. (In a landlord-tenant case, you should always bring a copy of your lease, if you have one.] When a case is called, the judge will ask the .parties if they desire the case to be heard by the judge or by an arbitrator. If the parties choose the judge, the case will then be heard by him. Both sides then get to present their case. They may introduce any evidence they wish and may examine and cross examine witnesses. There is also a right of rebuttal. Although clarity and brevity in presenting a case is appreciated by the judge, you should present as strong a case as you can, because the right to appeal is severely limited. It is important to introduce all the pertinent evidence you can. Once the judge hears both sides and has asked whatever questions he thinks are necessary, he will either render a decision or “reserve judgement.” If judgement is reserved, the parties will be notified of the outcome by mail. Barring a major error of law by the judge, his decisions are final. If the parties agree to submit to arbitration, they will leave the courtroom with an attorney who has been appointed by the court to serve as an arbitrator. The procedures are essentially the same, both sides present their case. There is no right to appeal the decision of an arbitrator and no stenographic record is kept. The court generally prefers that the parties choose arbitration because it helps to relieve the heavy case load placed upon the judge. You should not, however, feel compelled to choose arbitration if you don’t want it. You have a right to be heard by the judge and should demand it if you want. The Group Legal Services Program provides a booklet about Small Claims Court. We also offer a free [to all registered students] consultation with an attorney. If you are planning to sue someone in Small Claims Court, please drop by Room 340 Norton Hall between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday [till 10 p.m. on Thursdays], and someone will be glad to give you more information and help you prepare your case.

How about throwing the stuff out the window? A. If you insist on partying in your car [not the most intelligent idea in the first place], there are a few basics you should know. The courts basically adhere to the policy that traffic infractions are non-crimes. In most cases, a search pursuant to receiving a traffic ticket will be thrown out of court, unless the prosecution can prove that the officer had probable cause to believe you’re guilty of a crime other than the infraction. Drugs in Plain Sight or Plain Smell are all the cop needs to make an arrest. Also, any suspiciously quick moves may be enough for the officer to search your “area of control” [usually your arm’s distance], since he may think you’re reaching for a weapon. In all cases, remain calm, and be yourself JOHN Q. CITIZEN being stopped for a traffic violation nothing else. As for throwing the stuff out the window WRONG! Once it leaves your hands, your Fourth Amendment rights go with it. If the cop sees and finds one seed, flake, pill, grain or drop, he can make an arrest, and subsequently search to his heart’s content. Oh yes, he probably has all he needs to convict you also.

Do workers in this country have the right to bargain collectively with their employers, to assure themselves of a decent living wage and working conditions, to unionize? Before we envision coal miners, orange pickers and factory workers, let us first realize that a ramification of the issue that is the Graduate immediately concerns the University at large Student Employee's Union's two year attempt to gain recognition as a — union The Administration has yet to realize that the graduate students presently employed as instructors and assistants here are entitled to the same rights as any other State worker. In spite of a consistant and relatively quiet attempt to approach the Administration for consultations and acceptance, University officials have responded with deceptions and intolerance when they've responded at all. Basic, important questions raised by the GSEU have been left unanswered. They include: Who will defend the TA fired from his position for promoting ideas offensive to some unscrupulous administrator? Who will demand an accounting by the University when a chemistry TA is seriously injured due to dangerous, but still uncorrected, safety violations in the laboratories, but is nevertheless denied any type of workman's compensation or accident insurance? And, who will stand up to the administrators when and if a five-course load is mandated, and the same number of TAs must teach 25 percent more classes. The Administration's actions to date have added up to a flagrant denial of rights far more basic, if not as old, as the right to free speech and a free press. Let us be explicit —We support the right of graduate employees to vote for representation by a union of their choice. -We support that union's right to collectively bargain with their member's employer: the University. —We support the graduate student employee's right to a decent wage, safe and bearable working conditions, and an effective grievance — Crib notes for Doty slippery for 1) When snow reaches the road, it is To the Editor. therarr. After hearing Doty’s decision to close school Thursday at 9:30 a.m., 1 have to conclude that there are a few facts that he is not aware of. Not knowing exactly what level he is on, for his sake I will start with the simple. 1) The white stuff that falls from the sky is called snow. 2) When it reaches the ground, it has a tendency to stay there until the temperature gets to a certain point at which time it will melt. 3) The big spaces between the buildings all over town are called roads. These are for cars. 4) A car is a machine that moves for the purpose of transportation. Dr. Doty, study these four principles and quiz yourself.

Pull an “all-nighter” and take No-Doz if you have to. William Henry Jones III On thin ice To the Editor. I am writing this editorial to show one small example of the lack of “student orientation” I have seen on this .campus for the last four years. I define student orientation as the willingness of the University to answer the needs and desires of the students. The first weekend of February has been designated as the winter carnival period. 1 recently talked with one of the planners of the carnival. I asked if ice skating on Lake LaSalle was included in the festivities. The answer was no, the administrators won’t allow it. Those that live in Ellicott, closest to the lake, have all heard various reasons and excuses why this fantastic natural facility (it is an athletic alternative to the over crowded bubble) cannot be used. One of the most ridiculous was that the scuba gear is stored on Main Street and if anyone managed to fall through two feet of ice, it would take Security, excuse me Campus Police, 20 minutes to arrive with the gear. What’s the gear doing at Main Street, there’s no lake at Main Street? 1 think they should redefine their goal. It seems that their present goal is to not have people skating on the lake. Instead their goal should be to not have anyone drown in the lake. Their present gaol cannot be achieved, people still skate on the lake. The new goal could be achieved by testing the ice, marking off an area for skating and having rescue equipment readily available. This seems to me to be a much more sensible answer to the real issue and would achieve the real goal. Wouldn’t it be a terrific conclusion to the winter carnival to have a large bonfire out by the lake Saturday night with everyone ice skating and having a good time. Come on administrators, dig those old skates out of the attic and “lead the way.” Ray Spencer, Fargo Good clean fun >|k Deference to ‘chops’ procedure —And we will support any job action the Administration may force the Union to take in obtaining these fair and basic demands. by Richard B.

In doing so we should keep in mind an easily except for an imaginary audience who’s watching my forgotten fact: graduate student employees are on the frontline of nimble fingers propel them into space with searing notes from unheard of registers. And I’m also administration cutbacks and abuses. Let us remember that like any other employer, the University has watching them as they watch my body, ecstatic from the rushes of very good cocaine and very smooth only its own interests at heart. We're all University employees in this Jack Daniels. I’m not particularly proud of these respect. fantasies, but I’m fond of them nevertheless. I started playing guitar when I first came to college, having decided that four years of school would at least teach me something. That something We don't need to say too much about the insensitivity was a lot more than 1 expected, more than four years administrators have shown the University community this winter. But worth, certainly. 1 can’t adequately express how yesterday was really too much. With a -43 wind chill factor, and roads much pleasure 1 get when I play with a couple of friends, or find someone new with whom the music becoming more impassable each minute, the administration once again immediately clicks. I know it all sounds like some gave notice early yesterday morning that the University would be open. half-baked, romantic rap, but it is the way I feel. For Then it turned around and decided to close the University at 9 a.m., me, no experience has ever been higher.

You notice that I refer to guitar players as “he” or “him.” I am not using these terms generically, as I have yet to play with a woman who had chops, who held the guitar as a natural part of herself, and who could utilize the instrument as a unit or communication. Not that these women don’t exist; W jtm but 1 don’t believe many do. Joni Mitchell is pretty good, but her voice and song-writing ability are far greater. Bonnie Raitt knows what she’s doing, but her appeal seems to lie elsewhere. No female Jimi Hendrix’s, or Jerry Garcia’s, or George Benson’s have come to my attention. There’s a reason and it has nothing to do with physical ability. It requires a modicum of strength to play electric guitar, but a great deal of macho passion to wail away on a $500 chrome-metal, four-foot, hot-smoking penis strung around one's neck because it's so big and heavy, for God’s sake. Only a man could believe that there’s something he could do that’s so worthy, so necessary that infinite decibles, miles of wire and thousands of dollars is justifiable in its pursuit. But for me and my friends (most of whom play guitar), the awareness of the guitar politic is subsumed by the joy of this oftentimes totally pure interaction. For a group of men, this cannot be dismissed lightly. We are able to encourage each other, share knowledge, and watch the progress that comes with practice the endless hours spent playing from a songbook or jamming on nothing in particular. Collectively dreaming of being part of that rock and roll band that’s funkier than a wah-wah pedal, cooler than all hell, and yet utterly dedicated to their instruments and their music: ah. — such rapture unparalelled. It’s not quite like that for everyone who picks up a guitar, probably, and that’s good. Some people enjoy the guitar for the abject stoned fun it gives them and nothing more no professional aspirations, no supple, writhing groupies, no great drugs at hip Rolling Stone parties. But even they, I suspect, hear all those lame groups at dark little bars — playing the same tired licks over and over, and believe they could do it better, or at least avoid the trappings of bad jokes and silly Elton John songs. I’ve never been as disciplined or dedicated to anything other than the guitar. 1 love to read about them, talk about them (which is to say pretend 1 know more than 1 really do), collect them, and have them around. They’re a source of security, something I can do pretty well and improve with a proportionate expenditure of energy.

Despite his flashes of righteous anger this brightest of which occurs just a few moments later is Fugard's invitation to all of us; to find, or build, a place where our dignity will not be denied. As prologue to that kind of a statement, the first half of Bansi through pleasant enough and certainly not negligible, is pale by comparison. It's an energetic, funny monologue by one Styles, also played by Martin, describing his progress from laborer in an auto plant to owner of a photography studio the same studio to which Bansi is to come for his new passbook picture. — That two Athol Fugard plays The Blood Knot and Sizwe Bansi Is Dead have been brought to Buffalo within two months of each other, (Blood Knot here at this university, Sizwe Bansi currently running at the Studio Arena Theatre) is a happy feast after an unfortunate famine. Having seen both plays in a rather short space of time with their impact possibly heightened by their I'm convinced that Fugard is a very close proximity important playwright, and that his work has been absent from a theatrical scene as nominally devoted to "new theatre" as Buffalo is for far too long. That time lag, though, has made Fugard and his work more topical than ever. For Fugard is a South African a white South African. And Both Blood Knot and Sizwe the volatile, violent Bansi are coursing with black blood people oppression of a to whom is a fact, not a lifestream — — — — — — slogan. — — Kudos The sequence has a loose, improvised feel and it surely owes much to John Kani, who created the part and was formerly an auto plant employee himself; with Winston Ntshona, Kani is given co-authorship credit. There's no denying the undercurrents of rebellion and outrage they're of great help in making the scene true, in fact but the prevailing impression is one of humor. It's good humor, not just in the quality of being funny, but in be ng the kind of humor that allows us to laugh at a har and thus to survive it. — Fugard is fully aware of this, but using politics as a bludgeon is not his way. His greatest sensitivity is to the human nuances of a situation, the common depths of feeling shared by all people. It's that very sensitivity, coupled with a strong concern for people as individuals, that makes Fugard's treatment of racial matters so effective at cutting through and to the basic roots at which everyone can relate to likely be profoundly moved by as well. — Unnatural act In at least one incarnation, Sizwe Bansi was a one-act work (paired in New York with another Fugard one-acter, The Island). The current version fills an entire evening, albeit a bit briefly, but the play would have been better left in its original form, I think. The basic situation, enfolding entirely within the expanded version's second act, centers on the passbook which rules every black South African's life. In it are the parade of government stamps which dictate where one can work, where one can live, one's identity. And the passbook provides a solution for the frustrated life of Sizwe Banski (Joe Seneca) when he has the opportunity to change identities with a dead man by taking the latter's passbook. Fugard does see some humor in the bureaucratic tangle; Bansi's friend Buntu (D'urville Martin) buries him in a five-minute description of how to get a work permit, finishing with "It's simple!" But the primary force is anger anger at the governmental idiocies that chain the lives of people like Bansi, and prevent them from fulfilling themselves. — There's a place for us There is a glorious moment when Bansi stumbles . .. out — ; Both Seneca and Martin give exemplary performances; found Seneca's qualities of strength and nobility striking, I with Martin delightful as Styles in the first act in a literally exhaustive job, and forceful as Buntu in the second. Sizwe Bansi was directed, perceptively, by Woodie King, Jr., whose other work includes Off-Broadway's For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide/When the Rainbow is Enuf. It may have been because of the weather, Sizwe Bansi being a last-minute production (it replaces the previously-scheduled Happy End), or some other factor, but last Friday's premiere performance was very poorly attended for an opening night; also, in the audience of a play whose blackness is undeniable, almost everyone was white. If this speaks of the black community seeing nothing noteworthy in the Studio Arena's attitude towards them, it's a sad reflection on the Theatre. Then again, it may simply be analagous to Groucho Marx's comment to a friend who urged him to read Laura Hobson's Gentlemen's Agreement "I don't have to pay five dollars to find out what it feels like to be a Jew." The money you pay for Sizwe Bansi will buy you a glimpse into being black and being human.

OUR HOURS ARE John Coltrane once told someone who didn't understand the Music and his faithfulness in furthering its Evolution, Man, I can't do nothing with it, but play. Asante sana. Understand that to play is no game, not to be toyed with if you don't know. Fats Waller (I believe) said something to that effect, and when he spoke his words avoided any misbehaving. Creativity is the most Consistent tradition of all, and whatever your calling, sooner or later you must answer for yourself. Or to yourself. The facing of self is inevitable, as well as confronting the theives of your sunsets: sleep with you eyes armed and ready for life fuller than retaliation. Those like Malcolm and John and McCoy Tyner learned not only that, but that it's a never-ending growth which requires full awareness. I daresay that those who experienced the forces of Saud on January T3, 1977 at York University's Burton. Auditorium in Toronto either found out, or will never find out. The Band isn't merely excellent; they are there\ Understand? Excellent is a particular state of being, and the forces of McCoy Tyner, Joe Ford, Ron Bridgewater, Charles Fambrough, Eric Kamau Gravatt, Guilherme Franco are evolving into One with all being; Excellent to the healthy and Noise to the noisemakers who close themselves from their own control. It's where your mind heads. Or is heading. They know. Can we dare? It's our lives, and it isn't about guessing. The beginning is "Mode for Dulcimer" and the version on Focal Point was but a seed blooming. The fragrance here is even more nourishing; Ron's soprano brings to mind waters meditating, flowing forcefully for continuous release; Joe's alto like the other instruments is given much more room to explore, and room is made for him. Playful tenaciousness, superbly vocal is the root of Ford's style, and if anybody thinks I'm saying this because I'm from Buffalo, then you haven’t heard or else you don't want to. Not unusual. Many in Buffalo and elsewhere are guilty of this, and they're supposed to know. Joe is versatility speaking; his alto ranges from tenor to soprano and my eyes jump upward, looking for the cat that's lifting my chin. McCoy smiles; his memories and his smiles will come to clash tonight. Guilherme calls the group back as Charles draws electricity from raw air on his base. Eric and Guilherme become priests of old (?) and the fire is leaping, road-paved for Spirit Saud who does more than walk. The priests and the spirit become trio. A world and land is dance of rise against still skies breezing masquerading as peace. Art Tatus and Errol Garner exchange glances as they are called. Guilherme is the unbelievability of logic: tambourine becomes a conga for one hand playing. With the spring valleys of dulcimer, the atmosphere is set for Jihad. The psyches of the unprepared among us are whispering "Jigs with guns. Jigs got guns," and from the way my chair was jumping all night I think some of them were also refering to me. Some people just can't fee/! "Theme for Nana." First and last is the seed soloing: Saud. Joe (now on flute) sings Willow Weep for Me cause my tears are used up anyway.

The Spectrum Friday, 28 January 1977 . Prodigal Sun �Slee Cycle V luilliard Quartet finely tuned group The political situation during Beethoven's lifetime was one of great upheaval. Napoleon, at the beginning of his rise, read Voltaire, endearing himself to the class from which he sprang. He wrote to the people of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, upper Italy, and the Netherlands, telling them that "the French were coming to break their chains." And break them he did, while at the same time from Italy, he wrote to his superiors saying, "We will levy 20 million francs in war reparations from this country; it is one of the richest in the world." Austria at that time was under strict censorship under Emperor Franz. Consequently, any form of protest had to go underground. On June 14, 1800, Napoleon defeated Austria at the Battle of Marengo. Economically and socially, times were pretty rough, the lowest rents hovering around 90 dollars a month, and prices were sky high. Beethoven, although not by nay means well off, didn't Starve. His friends saw to that, and his fame grew. The Juilliard Quartet played to an appreciative audience last Friday night at the Mary Seaton Room of Kleinhans. Featured in the Slee Beethoven Quartet Cycle V was the String Quartet No. 5 in A major. Opus 18, No. 5, which Beethoven had finished by 1800. As this was one of Beethoven's earlier works, during the period in which he was "classicizing" his works (modeling them after the "classical style"), this particular quartet was patterned after Mozart's quartet in the same key. Vet, his model is original anck pleasing to the ear. The first* movement. The Allegro moves briskly and nicely with lighthearted enjoyment. His second movement, Menuetto, has a lovely beginning, with low, melodic tones sustained by the violincello. The violin soloist, Robert Mann, mirrored a spring day blossoming, violin echoing viola and violincello, one octave higher, then sweetly proceeding to the next little tune. His third movement, the Andante cantabile (Variazioni), is a rather slow movement, in which the; player is instructed to make the music sing. There are some marvelous moments of feeling for this piece. I'm in Europe, breathing Alpine air, while darkness is setting in over the mountain valley, at day's end. There is movement on the forest floor beyond, brought on by the violincello and viola (Joel Krosnick and Samuel Rhodes); very nice. The violinist, a true virtuoso, has a slight problem in pitch, however. Some very tender moments here, with a rousing chorus moving to a sweet repetition of the same theme, night falls, the living world rebfels somewhat, but night rules out after all. The Allegro is fast running music, a town is waking up, with all it's local characters, and the irrespective "going to work" movement fast slow. The — washerwoman saying hello to the milkmaid, swallows flitting in and —Fliss out. Beethoven turned to Bach and Handel for inspiration for his last quartets. Originally composed for Prince Nikolaus Galitzin, who was to pay for a set of three quartets, at roughly $1,250.00 a quartet, but only actually paid for the first one (Beethoven having died long before) any payment made was received by his heirs. The String Quartet No 13 in B flat major Opus 130 was completed in 1825. In trying to explore the largest possible variety of capable form, Opus 130 grew to six movements. The first movement. Adagio ma non troppo; Allegro, is somber, moody stuff, with intermittent bursts of energy, tension building, then subsiding. The musicians treated this passage as if they were handling fragile eggs, with serious, almost tragic, harmonies. The violin's bursts of energy were joined by the others. They switch from a somber mood and back again, to an energetic, fervant passage. They are in earnest, almost mourning the tragedy. The bursts of fervancy fade out becoming more delicately played gradually growing in volume, onece more regaining strength. The violins begin to assert themselves, coming to a definite conclusion. . danger listen . . . and then resuming speed, but not quite fast enough, caution. Andante con moto ma non troppor, a kind, of lullaby or sone "and they all sat down." A sweet child's tune, elaborated upon and . His Presto lasts all of 100 seconds.

Guilherme Franco by Salah Bilal Oku . . . Jonathon Richman & the Modern Lovers Richman is somewhat of a legend down Beantown way, largely due to the success of his classic first album (The Modern Lovers). While his new album may seem inferior to those weaned on the earlier effort, his imagery is still as acute as ever, and his voice hasn't lost that palpabable tone. The sound is no less primitive than are the tracks on Beserkely Chartbusters, and Chuck Berry's "Back in the U.S.A." is a perfect vehicle for Richman. It's too bad that he does not have the rockin' that backed him in his underground days, for he'd be a magnum force in the present music scene. Night Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band This album is largely a (Capitol) Moves reconstruction of the rock and roll and Motown influences showcased on his past two outings. Night Moves jets straight to the heart, avoiding unnecessary accessories. It's Detroit in the classic mold, and hopefully it will give Seger the national prominence that has long evaded him. This is, quite simply, one of the best records released in 1976. (A Various Artists, Max's Kansas City 1976 As the liner notes testify, Max's Ram Records) claim to fame has been as the launching pad for such stars as Lou Reed and the Velvet Underground, Alice Cooper, Iggy and the Stooges, Aerosmith, Bruce Springsteen, Patti Smith, Bob Marley and the Wailers, and The (New York) Dolls. What the liner notes ignore is this album's attempt to cash in on the neighborhood success of Live at C.B.G.B.'s. Unfortunately, the quality of this disc, which includes the somewhat notorious Wayne County and the Back Street Boys, ex-groupie-turned-lead-singer Cherry Vanilla and her Staten Island Band, The Fast, the John Collins Band, Harry Toledo (do you believe that name?) and Pere Ube, is third-string in comparison. One salvation is the Cleveland based sextet Pere Ube: one of the more organized ensembles in the collection. Unless you can't help yourself, avoid the purchase of this record. (Shelter) Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers This is one of those albums whose cover may scare you into submitting to an exchange of currency. I can see it now you walk into your favorite record shop, you casually walk down the aisle, passing all those albums that you already have at home. It's another grim day at the store and you're about to go home and then you see it an arrogant record cover, which utilizes a sleazy shot of Petty looking as if he has a gangbang on his mind. Naturally you buy it, and run home, proud that you your stereotype have transcended musical boundaries. And, when you get back to your private bouduoir, the pleasure is doubled, for you find Petty to be one of those sleepy, but stinging rockers, somewhat like Joe Walsh. (Private Stock) Blondis As Ronnie Toast sez, "Rock and Roll is the name of their game, but to give to you, the listeners, more fun the object of their fame. This album may be just the thing all you non-blondes have been waiting for. Whether you like (Beserkley) . . . — — — — it or not (as it's only rock and roll). Blondie hates fun but they have so much of it that they have decided it's time to unload the real meaning of fun on this Ip. So, if you think your hair color has given you a shortage of fun, this Blondie has come to give you a ton." With verses like: "red eye shadow, green mascara/yecch! he's too much you know the guy's right." A sort of unselfconcious good time that transcends both scenes and hype; suggested cuts are "X-Offender," "Rip Her To Shreds," and "The Attack of the Giant Ants." (Warner Bros.) Leon Redbone To say the least, Mr. Redbone is a strange character. Foremost, his attire resorts back to the days of zoot suits, often with such other added frills as a humongous stogey, string tie, dark shades and a feathered pith helmet. No, he is not some estranged mortal, escaped from an episode of Dragnet. Actually, no one knows exactly where he's from, and this adds to the mystique. What is known, is that seemingly from out of nowhere, Leon popped up in Toronto in the mid '60's. There he became a mainstay in the club circuit and began to enthrall audiences with his peculiar hybrid of old-fashioned crooning and romanticising. His new album continues in this vein and encompasses many favorites like the novel "Sheik of Araby," Jimmy Rodger's "Mississippi River Delta Blues," and a camp "Diddy Wa Diddy." This may be that hard-to-find record that will bolster your sagging spirits. Graham Parker and The Rumor Heat Treatment For those of you (Mercury) captivated by those beloved Jersey boys, Bruce the Boss and Southside Johnny, the earnest enthusiasm and sensuous tightness of Heat Treatment will hit you like an A-Tomic bomb. But, comparisons put aside, Graham Parker and his band, which includes Brinsley Scwarz on guitar, is the best thing to come out of England in a long while. Pub rocker fans of the world unite; this album is a must. Besides, who Knows when Springsteen (with his contract hassles) will record again. Patti Smith Teenage Perversity and Ships in the Night; Frank Zappa Confidential Both of these vinyl products are bootlegs and can be had by browsing through your local Play It Again Sam record store. While Sam's is primarily a dealer of used records, they also have a vast flock of these rare artifacts. Patti has three bootlegs to her credit, and this is by far the best in terms of both sound quality and performance. Recorded live in Cleveland, this record provides 50 plus minutes of exciting music, and contains a lengthy version of "Radio Ethiopia," her (legally) unrecorded version of "Real Good Time Together," Lou Reed's "Pale Blue Eyes'," and an insurgent "Louie Louie." Confidential is perhaps the most sought-after bootleg in all of rock and roll history, and has good reason to be, for it offers the most esoteric and earliest of Prince Bizarre's recordings.

His target then was a successful writer, perhaps modeled after himself, who neglected love for the selfish pursuit of his own art. It is with a sharp memory of this fictive event that I have come away from the two latest additions to the William Gass canon; an essay-length autobiographical preface to his well known collection of stories, In The Heart of The Heart of The Country (Pocket Books); and a slim didactic and selebratory volume, On Being Blue: A Philosophical Inquiry (David R. Godine). Both wery nean Heart describe the tortures of the writer's craft: "hours of insanity and escape" in a familiar counterpoint in the preface; "Not an enterprise for amateures" takes up the same note in Blue. Both pieces come to terms with the equivocal place of the Wordin an uncaring world. ("Literature," Gass says wistfully in the preface," once held families together better than quarrelling.") Both end with a gay flourish of advice to young writers (and readers); both are bouyed on a sad undercurrent of despair for the English language: '. thus cautioned and encouraged, commanded, warned, persist. . even though . . . there's been perhaps a pouring rain, or factory smoke, an aging wind and winter air, and everything is grey." (On Being Blue) . rt W OF THE g~*i ? POCKET 80827 $1.95 . Gou . . OF THE With the authors new With Gass' persistent fatalism in mind, it is not, after all, very odd that a book about blueness ("most suitable as the color of interior life . . the color of transcendence, leading us away in pursuit of the future") should end with yes, in everyone's sad the word "grey." In GaSs' world world, I admit "The contemporary American writer is in no way a part of the social and political scene no one . The world does not beckon, nor does it fears his bite greatly reward." (From the preface). essay-length preface about the personal rites . of creativity — — ... . t #*l’ . The corollary to this vision (".'..not a boast or a complaint. It is a fact.") occurs expectedly; "Serious writing must nowadays be written for the sake of art." Given this underthrum of fatalism, Gass' consciously selfish enthusiasm for writing-as-writing is perhaps understandable; it leads him in obvious directions: "The real world plainly bores us," he asserts in On Being Blue. "What counts is love lavished on speech on every kind, regardless of content and intention." . . . But from here Gass takes a sad turn. He shows himself as a "writer" is perhaps the sense Hemingway meant it as a curse. Writing, the act of creating literature, becomes playing "tricks in f world of rubes I can kiss, kill, and steal easily. Withe it paying, I can get in all the games." ... {Blue) He defines the quality of "blueness" in writing as the perception and rendering of true feeling as opposed to mere sensation, which (he is right) so much of our "literature" is devoted to; yet he insists on constructing his not those of argument, it seems, on crushed bodies failed writers or cheating writers or even those of misguided intellectuals but on the bodies of ordinary people one would think were innocent of literary controversy. No rpatter that these ordinary people are wholly invented, the queer targeting is still there.

She sings more than she ever has on this album, and complements Ian Given credit beautifully. for arranging the album's vocals, it is her and perhaps coaching guidance which have added new textures and dimensions to Janis' singing. Never known as a "shouter" type singer, as say, Linda Ronstadt, on this album she sings with all the emotion and intensity of a blues singer.

It says. Nothing's wrong, okay must have been a strange dose of hormone shots. Good thing it doesn't affect the results of this record; I could create a minor sensation carrying this item around. Al Kooper, co-founder of Blood, Sweat and Tears, ex-producer of both Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Tubes, perpertrator in the Stills, Bloomfield, Kooper Super Sessions, a jack-of-all-trades in pretty much the same vein as Todd Rundgren, has come out with his newest album in four years (now.you know who he is). What did he learn? Borrowing styles from his previous associations and mixing them in a large vat of current top 40 trends, we get his latest contribution to the art of recording, a summation of these past years. Actually, this album speaks for itself, for it is "dedicated to its influences" a list of twenty or so names on the inner sleeve, notably including The Beach Boys, The Beatles, Thomas Bell, Booker T. Jones, Little Feat, Otis Redding, Steely Dan, Stevie Wonder, etc. Take a good look at this list and you'll get an idea where Kooper's head is at lately. Each side can be broadly generalized. "This Side" is a large shot of rhythm and blues, taken from different modes of this category. Kooper does a Little Feat-ish remake of a 60's pop classic ("This Diamond Ring"), an Al Green-ish mover ("She Don't Ever Loose a Groove"), and a BS&T'er ("Missing You"). He wrote only one of the songs on this side and treats the others with polish, just as all the others. Kooper is a lover of all kinds of music, one who combines his own touches and picks it up with styles making up the musical culture of the past ten — — years. On "That Side," Kooper heads for the other side of the map Californy, where folks who get into funnin' in the sun, depression, pretending and adulterating hang out. The very first cut is easily the best, "(Please Not) One More Time," an improbable throw-up of The Beach Boys and Steely Dan (a la Countdown to Ecstacy) recalling the poor boy's problems with females in the fine West Coast state, with pastorals reminiscent of the two previously mentioned bands. The vinyl leads up to 46- seconds worth of clinking glasses and overlapped voices ("A Visit to the Rainbow Bar and Grill"), the atmospheric lead-in to "Hollywood Vampire," a 6-minute spoof of the Eagles, done Joe Walsh style with a special guest appearance by (lo and behold!) Joe Walsh! How else can we expect this to be done without the "hard-as-stone" guitar riffs and the telling of the fable of yer eye-poppin' fox who strolls in the room and gives everyone the hot — tamales? I can call this album "one man's music" since Mr. Kooper makes the method behind this madness. He's got a knack with horn arrangements to suit the different materials he works with. Parts of this record were done at TK Studios in Florida for the R&B cuts (KCand Co.'s hangout) and others were made in Nashville to "county-up" the second side's cuts. The guitar solos are never overpowering and come out as smooth as, well, A1 Kooper's back (see inside sleeve). Act Like Nothing's Wrong is an album with a popular satirical bit and entertainingly listenable (once you get your eyes off of the girl on the inside sleeve they do exist). -Drew Reid Kerr - tonigh t.

"Let's take the example of a A day with David Cohn, a view ofrecord promotion by Harold Goldberg Spebtrum Staff Writer A Wednesday morning. It's eight o'clock in the town of' Boston, New York. Three men are gathered around a kitchen table discussing the record business. Sipping coffee, they are a bit bleary-eyed. The conversation centered around an increase in the price of a record by Elektra recording artists, "Queen," and what amounts to a mild boycott of the album by record sellers and buyers. Elektra is a subsidiary company of the giant record corporation known as Warner Brothers. “How's the new Queen record selling?" "Not too well. Record stores in Syracuse are subtly protesting the price hike. Instead of ordering 500 copies of the album, they're ordering odd amounts, like 180 copies." The three men, David Cahn, Carrol Hardy, and Jack Riehle, do promotion work for the Warner Brothers Record Company. Riehle covers record stores, while Hardy encourages local radio stations to play certain records. Carrol and David used to work together. But no more. After only years two-and-a-half as • a has secured promotion man, Cahn a regional job with the Warner organization which will put him in control of the Mid-West one-third of the country. so, this Wednesday And morning meeting is close to the last one Cahn will attend prior to taking his position with Warner's. The informal gathering sees a discussion of which records are "making it" according to the charts. Records are usually rated on "Top Thirty" station lists which gauge record sales at the retail level and telephone requests by station listeners. From these statistics, Cahn will decide how much "push" a record should receive in order to aid its climbing of the charts. like Icarus — F— i I God save the Queen But the Queen album, A Day At The Races, is not selling well. "I think this is something temporary because of the increase in price. People will get used to it and buy the record." The newly adjusted price schedule raises the price of the record to a $7.98 up one dollar ,from the previous CROSS COUNTRY SKI RENTALS iBoots Poles Incld. & standard. The purpose of this action is to streamline the pricing of records, to coordinate with the pricing of 8-track tape recordings. Will prices on all records increase? "No, just a few will be placed at $7.98. Along with Queen, the new George Benson album will sell at a $7.98 list price," related Cahn. It seems the record company is legitimately trying to hold record prices at their present levels. Even with a permanent increase of prices, the consumer will never pay the recording's full list because of the usual discounts at retail consumer outlets. Cahn has been promoted because he has performed his job well. The many gold records which hang on his living room wall will attest to the fact. The records are the spoils of a victory of sorts a winning feeling one gets when a radio station accepts a song for airplay and the tune becomes a million-seller. But no longer will Cahn travel the streets of Buffalo with an oversized pile of records cradled under his arm, moving from radio station to radio station to peddle his wares at his paced leisure. 9:30 a.m.—11:30 a.m. "There is a great deal of autonomy in the Warner organization. Come on, I'll show you," What has Cahn planned for the morning? Phone calls to various record company executives, perhaps?

Picture Cahn at home one evening, burrowing through new Warner records. He hears a song. By instinct, he quickly realizes to what age group the tune should be geared, the station it should first be played on, the type of music the station playes, and whether or not the record will sell in that particular radio format. The song is Leo Sayer's "You Make Me Feel Like Dancing." Cahn is excited by Sayer's song to a great degree.

I've heard criticism of the Eagles' commercialism, that is, that they're passing up those nice acoustic guitars for the electric soul of One Of These Nights. Bernie Leadon's departure from the group only compounded the anger of many, as he took most of the country flavor with him. Then, the addition of Joe Walsh split the rest of the people who had any feeling about the group into two factions: The folkies who would definitely hate the rock and roll, no matter what, and those who finally figured the Eagles to be something other than a vocals band with no musical spine. Considering myself rather knowledgeable in this I predicted that they would now shake the foundations in concert, and that their records would be as finely produced as always. I was right on the former count. Roosevelt Stadium was a screaming place this summer, and much to my amazement, I heard myself yelling "Crank it up, crank it!!!" I, who once thought the ideal concert behavior was to lay a rose at Joni Mitchell’s feet, or something like that. The crowd vibrated with the electric energy, seemingly pouring out of everywhere. I totally underestimated my reaction to the first album of this Eagles incarnation, though. I expected quality, something solid and reliable. But by the end of "The Last Resort" on side two, I Was breathlessly impressed beyond any calculation. The Eagles once again employed concept their of outlaw-take-the-money-andrun-musician, coupled it with the myth of the California idyll, and constructed an album that comes as close to perfection as Desperado. On The Border was a solid record. One Of These Nights was good, too. But this one is amazing. The malaise that currently permeates rock was lurking in the background of the two former recordings, but apparently thery is no reason for it to be concealed any longer. It erupts in a nightmarish vision with "Hotel California," and roars through from start to finish. Sometimes' I can’t believe that these rockers are from the same band that produced "Best of my Love." These cuts smoke. "Easy Money, fiathless women, red eye whiskey . .are two transformed into self-destructive fanatics, intent on hip suicide, in "Life In The Fast Lane." Joe Walsh first shows up noticably on this song. The lead, the rhythm, the vocals, everything is reminiscent of vintage James they Gang. And the rest of the Eagles can do it play heavy metal with great success. How all this electric talent was diverted for so long is not that understandable. "Victim of Love" is a biting mockery of a girl with ". . . such an easy part. And you know how to play it so well." It’s got just as raw a delivery as its counterpart on side one. Even the ballads have that tone of dissatisfaction. "Wasted Time" has the speaker condescendingly bestowing his pity on a deserted lover, only to find out he is also a character in this plot. Walsh's "Pretty Maids All In A Row" plaintively asks "why must we grow up so fast?" Randy Meisner shows some dim faith in "Try and Love Again." But that feeling of uneasy discontent still prevails. It's a hard look, one without real pity for those involved. Don Henley and Glenn Frey, the group's most visible members, are evolving into writers par excellence. The apocalyptic vision in "The Last matter, "*V — i. I'/ Page sixteen The Spectrum . . The music is majestic, with fading strings in the of Jackson Browne's "The Late Show." My biggest dilemma here is dealing with the single, "New Kid In Town." It's already been played to pieces, unfortunately, and is hard to deal with in the same musical context as the rest of the album. I loved it the first time I heard it; being the first new Eagles music in eighteen months, it was really pretty. It's only problem is that, while lyrically it belongs with the rest of the numbers, it is a little too Eagles-ish for this radically different sound. It's a ooh, ooh, perfectly built 4/4 harmony ballad everybody's talking and will only serve to alienate the musical progressives with AM car radios. It has its moments, though. Glenn Frey just can't sing badly, and the vocal is appreciated as his only lead on the album. J.D. Souther helped in writing, and the song is similar to "Somebody Must Be Wrong," one of the best the Souther-Hillman-FUray band ever did. The thought is well taken. The Eagles, who were once the promising youngsters, are no longer the kids in this game, and they know it. “Hotel California," the opening cut, is far and above the best song on the entire album. Don Felder, who truly comes into his own here in both writing and playing, is probably the most important figure on this cut. His guitar wraps itself around Henley’s piercing vocal, and whips into a frenzied duel with Joe Walsh's lead. Reggae is currently a popular form of musical exploration for many rock bands, and is perfectly integrated into this number. The song builds and builds, lulls for a moment for some woman to say "we are all just prisoners here/ of our own device," and explodes into a terrifying climax: manner — — Last thing I remember, I was Running for the door I had to find the passage back To the place / was before 'Relax' said the night man 'We are programmed to receive You can check out any time you like But you can never leave. “Cousin Cousine is a marvelous film. It will elate you and make you feel exuberant with happiness and joy —GeneShalil WNBC Tv “One of those rare film’s you’ll want to see again and again and again! —Judith Crist Saturday Review ’ And the guitars burn on. The hammering repetition at the end is like dreaming, running but not moving, screaming in your sleep without sound. I took this album to three parties in one weekend, and slipped it on unobtrusively, suspecting that if its identity were known, it would immediately be broken in two. By the end of the first cut, however, various Hot Tuna, Grateful Dead, Hendrix and Patti Smith freaks were yelling more, more, MORE! It was inconveivable to many that this was an EE-gulls album, for Christ's sake. Like, Take It Easy, y'know? I have a sneaking suspicion that this review may do more harm than good, in that those prejudiced against this band's work may find it easier to identify and therefore block out.

I HOLIDAY SIX Prodigal Sun ��the bull pen by David J. Rubin stuff. Special Features Editor Snow is something Buffalonians have been living with since even before Frank and Teressa concocted their first ever chicken wing. Every winter Buffalonians deal with snow on the roads, snow on the sidewalks, snow on their kids, snow up their noses, and just about everywhere else. Some winters receive more snowfall than others. This winter, as a point of reference, has had a somewhat greater amount of snow than most winters. As a result, the honorable mayor and the honorable County Executive have been calling out the snowplows on an almost daily basis. But somehow it seems that the snowplows are the laziest and most inefficient machines ever created. They don’t go very fast, and even when they are in operation all they do is move the snow to one side. The snow is still there, but it’s just been moved around a bit. And what’s more, the plows are so dirty, that when they move the snow, they turn it from its God-given white color to a dirt stained, vomit brown. You would think that in a city like Buffalo whose middle name is snow, somebody would design a more effective way of getting rid of the white Vo W TKlOKl 5H0UU? mp History has shown us time and again that benefits to some often arise from disaster to others. For instance, when perspiration blossomed into the awful problem it has become, the deodorant manufacturers walked in with a cure and made a fortune. When a shortage of gasoline caused mile-long lineups at gas stations in 1975, the presidents of Exxon, Mobil, Gulf, and other “energy” companies improved their standard of living at an expotential rate. I was discussing the snow problem with my friend Kush last week, and he came up with a plan that might be the biggest thing since sliced bread. He explained that garbage trucks, unlike snowplows, are most efficient. They eat all kinds of garbage, and take it somewhere far away so that nobody has to see it for any length of time. He said that if snowplows worked like garbage trucks, the problem could be solved. Then the “snow removal engineers” could make weekly pickups, and the snow would be gone just a few days after it falls. f Utopiia! But Kush’s real genius lies in what he would do with the snow after it is collected. This is where he called for teamwork between the snow removers and the garbage MAk66” im & vue W*)T hoer X A6AIU? 06HU2T that's B or i aorcor mr H60 SA( o W LAST OFF IM Z0TI&L9! 3 90760 TIM6S MT BHOUOOe Vie.

By using the garbage as a base, and covering it with snow from all of Western New York, all we would need is a chair lift and an Austrian ski instructor to create the greatest ski area in history. Conditions would always be excellent because of the incredible amount of snow that would be trucked there. Kush said the only difficulty would be in coloring the yuchy brown stuff to make it appear white, but he figures some chemist somewhere will invent some ski-resistant white paint and that problem will be solved instantly. Kush said he would name it Mt. Trash, and not only would it attract the local ski crowd, but the international jet set skiers that habituate Vail, Aspen, Innsbruck, and St. Moritz. Soon they would be calling Buffalo the Val d’lsere of the Americas, and Mt, Trash would be hailed as the second Matterhorn. Kush also said that Mt. Trash Would create loads of jobs. The Statler would be able to start renting hotel rooms on a per night basis again. New restaurants and ski shops would spring up, and Buffalo will finally come out of its century-long economic slide. liMM azussf MJA mm \cm< . <sou um, CM.

In such a situation, the law of the jungle would prevail. Is this what the BSU wants? Or is the BSU so blind as to not see the implication of their position?

Doug Theresa & Bonny Dorset Vaughan and Tight Others To the h'ditor We have been informed that Professors Ron Goodenow and Gene Grabiner of the Social Foundations Department are to be fired at the end of the current academic year. This effort by the Administration to fire two highly respected teachers and scholars is yet another blatant example of the contempt which SUNY managements have for the rights of faculty and students. That this decision was made after both had been supported by their Departmental colleagues. Acting Department Chairman and former Department Chairman (on leave) makes a sham of peer review in the University. It places the naked power of management on the table for all to see. We are quite familiar with the past efforts of SUNYAB’s Administration to still progressive voices within the academic community. But we are also familiar with efforts over the past decade to struggle against this mentality, struggles in which The Spectrum has distinguished itself as a valuable ally. We are certain that this honorable tradition will be kept and that you will join with others in vigorously this injustice. This effort by protesting the Administration is part of an insidious campaign by SlINY managers to cripple the educational quality of the institution. If students allow this injustice to Professors Goodenow and Grabiner to pass it will be a tragic loss for the University community. Professors R.T. Hutcharl, Hill (Iriffen, J.D.

No student taking courses In Government Action (IGA) shall receive monies for such work performed. > Explanation Join the ruling class? The course is open. Steven Schwartz, the president of the S.A. is a good kid, and gets paid $2000.00 for being president of the Student Association. They call it a stipend. Stipends are paid in lieu of (the lulu) a salary. Everyone else is also handsomely paid so it pays to be a concerned student in the S.A. ■ Any undergraduate student who pays $33.50 per semester in activities fees (or has their fee waived) ought to have the option, opportunity and right to be involved in their own government and furthermore, get credit for being in the government action. Students have the right to represent themselves. The motivation should be to learn about government, how to be a part of it, instead of its tool, and in the ptocess get credit where credit is due; not money. Conservatively, the undergraduate students can save themselves between 150 and 200 thousand dollars per year, simply by taking a hand in their own affairs. Money for speakers, from all fields, one or two symposiums each semester, spring arts festivals, etc., the kinds of things we used to do and have that made this University the most exciting place to be at in the East. 1CKE G C CHICKEN WINGS 10 Wings & - $1.95 50 WINGS includes 18 Wings - - - $2.85 O o $5.50 Blue Cheese, Celery & Carrots HOT MEDIUM MILD — - - 3677 DELAWARE AVE.

It seems to me that if The Spectrum To the Editor: 1 am 3 am of Arthur J. Lalonde, Jr. and Rick Birdsall. I shall commence with the premise that we are discussing a crime of which persons accused are, according to sundry official documents and Judicial precedent, innocent until proven guilty in some sort of tribunal presided o’er by some sort of magistrate. Certainly Mr. Birdsall’s obvious acquaintance with the alleged victim (who, we may assume, related to him the “full scoop”) does not constitute such proof, just as the pages of The Spectrum are not such a tribunal. Why then, (pray tell!) are the authors of the said letters so vehemently denouncing The Spectrum in general and Ms. Sullivan in particular for attempting to present both sides of the issue as they were stated at the hearing of the three accused? Eye-witnesses said that the perpetrator(s) of the violence could not be determined, yet Mr. Birdsall seems to feel that his simple exercise in logic (“He had no reason . .”) should negate their testimony. If Mr. Speigel says that he took an active role in the fighting, Mr. Lalonde calls it self-defense. Those same witnesses knew not what to call it, and neither do I, and The Spectrum did not call it anything, because that judgement should be reserved ,for the tribunal after the evidence has been weighed. I am certain that the accused know who is guilty of assault and who is not. I am certain that Mr. Speigel does, and God, too. Where does that leave your . is to be accused of bias and distortion, that should have been done regarding the first article about the incident, in masse beat tb a bloody pulp a defenseless white because he would not hand them $1000. Only later did we, the public, discover that at most two had engaged in violence, that one of them claims merely to have been trying to end it when Mr. Speigel attacked him (and why should his word count less than Sptigel’s?), and that one of the accused also suffered injuries (“while beating on another person,” Mr. Birdsall, I know not). What he and Mr. Lalonde should have said was not that The Spectrum was biased, but that it was not sufficiently so to their liking in favor of the-white accusor. I am also troubled by the decision of the authorities against the three accused. While there seems to be no dispute that one Mr. Robert Tribble was not responsible for any physical confrontation, his punishment was as severe as that meted out to his Speigel co-defendants. Do and the Mr. aforementioned authorities blame many blacks for what may have been the handiwork of one or two? Moreover, since no witness substantiated the accuser's claim, why was his innocence not questioned; why was he not chastised when others were at his word? I do not accuse him, but I wonder who will give me a fair and honest answer, and that, Mr. Speigel, will not come from you or your associates. which it appeared that three bestial blacks Barbara Wagner Tragic tenure denial To the Editor. This letter is penned to inform this University community of a recent tenure decision made by the Sociology Department at the University of California at Berkeley. A lesson is to be learned here. Harry Edwards, a black sociologist and author of three books and some fifty articles, was denied tenure. A former Woodrow Wilson fellow, Edwards first received national attention for his leadership role in the black athlete revolt in the 1968 Olympic Games. Of the 1182 tenured professors at Berkeley, only 14 are black. Tenure was denied on the basis that Edwards’ scholarship did not meet the professional standards of the department. How often have we heard administrative and academic mouths explain the paucity of black faces in their midst with the assertion that “too few qualified minorities are available for selection”? It is doubtful that Edwards’ qualifications are responsible for his dismissal. Consciously or unconsciously, political and racial factors seem to be operating instead. Tenure constitutes a jump in status and it is in the competition for status that racial and political prejudices surface. This writer, the many who have learned from Harry Edwards’ writings and example, and the nearly 12,000 students he taught at Berkeley, regard the denial of his tenure as a tragedy and a sad commentary on American higher education.

There are not many who are not aware of the abuses and illegal activities of the FBI and CIA in the past. But if any do not know that the USSR, China, Cuba, Vietnam and other Communist countries are much worse abusers of civil rights than the United States, it is because they are ignorant of facts. One has only to listen to the dissidents of those nations which Mr. Krehbiel esteems to realize that they do not have the right to speak openly against their governments as he has done of the U.S. Mr. Krehbiel cites the present status and gains of Communism: twenty-one countries, one third the world’s population, 40% of the world’s production as if these legitimize communist governments. If numbers and acceptance alone were the determining factors, than one could use the same arguments to legitimize any form of government of any time period. Historical analysis, however, proves that argument to be wrong. Reducing malnutrition and illiteracy are not the pinnacles of successful government when it is done by sacrificing religious and civil liberties, which are inalienable rights. — Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Friday, 28 January 1977 After citing these facts and figures, Mr. Krehbiel subtly implies that to resist Communism is a movement toward fascism. How absurd. Are the dissidents of Communist countries Fascist? He quotes Philip Agee, former CIA agent, as saying that capitalism cannot survive without a secret police force. How distorted. Who is not aware that it is the fear tactics of the secret police of Communist nations that keep their citizens oppressed. Communism is the great enemy of the people as much as Fascism. Both surpress the people’s rights I agree that the CIA and FBI should not be allowed to disregard the law, to violate the right of privacy of law abiding groups and citizens. But the abuses of these agencies lends no support to Mr. Krehbiel’s contention that Communism is a better form of government. The very fact that these abuses were brought before the public, which cannot be done under the form of government Mr. Krehbiel advocates, is proof enough that our system works, and works well enough to correct its mistakes.

Buffalo began the match at a disadvantage, because they had to forfeit both diving events, yielding sixteen points to Fredonia.

The bowlers raised their record to 29-6, an .829 percentage. Senior Gigi Ruddy, the top collegiate bowler in New York State last year, had the best night for Buffalo, with a 178.1 average and 535 total pins. She also had the high game for both teams with 205 pins in the third game. Ruddy also has the highest season average on the team. Two of the first team* bowlers for Buffalo, junior Liz Wolszczak and Pat Schafer couldrf’t attend the meet, but coach Jane Poland wasn’t worried. “I didn’t mind much, because I knew Fredonia wouldn’t give us much competition,” she said. After a strong opening game, in which Buffalo took a 58 pin lead, they rolled to victory by taking the next two games of the match. Fredonia bowled a strong third game. Their 751 beat Buffalo’s first two games scores, but Buffalo'bowled an even stronger third game, led by Ruddy’s 205 and Diane Weyer’s 167. Because of the absence of Wolszczak and Schafer, junior Minna Gould and sophomore Amy Burns moved into the first team lineup, and contributed 460 and 395 series, respectively. Gould rolled the second best series for Buffalo. “There’s a lot of competition,” Poland said. “The girls’ averages are pretty close, and the lineup still isn’t set.” “it wasn’t a very good match,” she said. “The competition wasn’t what it should have been.” At least Fredonia’s second team had a good day, as they managed to pull off a surprise win over the Blue Devil’s first team. Tomorrow, Buffalo -will face five other teams in the Buffalo Invitational at Norton Lanes at noon. Competing will be Cornell, Brockport, Fredonia, Ithaca, R.l.T. and Buffalo. The only team the hosts have not yet faced this year is Brockport. „ Buffalo basketball fans had plenty to cheer about Tuesday night, but with just seconds remaining in overtime, the fans held their breath. Milwaukee’s Robert jammer, with his team trailing by one, grabbed an offensive rebound and tried to tip it in. His shot went wild, and Buffalo had a 77-76 overtime win, their second win in three ganies. They are 3-14. ■ Twice, the Bulls battled baok from small deficits, once at the end of regulation, and once in overtime to take the hard-fought contest. Buffalo had opened up an eight point halftime lead, but when guard George Cooper injured a finger and was replaced, Buffalo lost some of their leadership. Then, in a span of two minutes, Milwaukee ran off ten straight points to go up by four. It was then that the Bulls showed their determination. Buffalo center Sam Pellom, having an excellent night, hit a layup, and seconds later then grabbed a rebound and stuffed it, tying the game. Then, the race to the finish began. Jammer, the Panthers’ center, and Buffalo’s leading scorer. Ed Johnson, traded baskets, and the score remained tied with 1:12 left. Buffalo called time out and set their offense. “We were in. an ‘open’ offense,” explained Buffalo coach Leo Richardson. “Our guards are supposed to penetrate all the way if they can, if not, they’re supposed to slough it off.” Guard Donald Scott, the smallest player on the court, had the hall. He dribbled between two Panther defenders, down the lane and lofted the ball over the defense and into the basket. It was Scott’s only bucket of the night, gnd when Milwaukee was able to call timeout, there were only 17 seconds left. Cora P. Maloney courses This semester, Cora P. Maloney College continues to offer stimulating, innovative courses to the University community. The following courses are still open: City Budget Making, Community News Writing, Music Appreciation: Choir, Video Tape as Social Tool, Language Problems of the World, Quality Living for All, Community Organizing, Experience, and Mexican-American Anthology. For more information on any of these courses, call the Cora P. Maloney College office at 636-2234, or visit their offices in 109 Fargo, Bldg. 1. Milwaukee guard Tim Cullen inbounded the ball to Larry Pikes. Pikes drove left, found a hole in the Buffalo defense, and scored, tying the game with two seconds left. Jojmson’s hurried shot at the buzzer bounced off the rim, sending the game into overtime. A string of Buffalo freethrows and a bank shot by Pellom at the start of the extra period put the Bulls up by six, but then Gerald Hartnett retaliated for Milwaukee with a long jumpshot and two freethrows, and Malcolm Dotson hit a freethrow, pulling Milwaukee within one. Then Jammer’s sweeping hookshot put Milwaukee on top once again. practice.” The reason for this improvement, Richardson said, was that the team is finally learning to together. After injuries early in the year caii ed Richardson to revamp his lineup, the team displac'd ! some inconsistency from half to half. Another factor in the win was Buffalo’s offerse. Milwaukee had scouted Buffalo when the Bulls played Syracuse Monday night, so Richardsonchanged to the “passing game” offense, and the “open offense.” “They |Milwaukee] hadn’t seen it last night," Richardson said. “They looked like they didn’t know what they were doing.” In addition to the buckets at the end of regulation and overtime, the new offenses helped throughout the game. “Both guards got a little better shots than they had been getting because they were abl? to penetrate and get open shots,” Johnson said. Johnson finished with sixteerf points. Cooper had ten before getting injured, and the guards were able to feed Vernell Washington and Pellom for many of their 13 and 18 points, respectively. Are the Bulls on the upswing? Only time will tell. Tomorrow night at the Aud. Buffalo will face a struggling Fairfield team, in the first game of a doubleheader (beginning at 6:30). In the second game, Canisius will host St. Louis University. Student tickets are available at the Clark Hall ticket office until 3 p.m. today. HEALTH INSURANCE STUDENT Information WAIVING Working the same offense that scored the last basket of regulation time, Scott drove down the lane for Buffalo, but,then saw Pellom all alone.'Scott dished the ball off and Pellom stuffed. A Milwaukee turnover returned the ball to Buffalo, but then Scott took a bad shotrreturning the ball to Milwaukee; Buffalo stole the ball and Scott was fouled, but missed the fneethrow, setting the stage for the last play of the game. The Panthers dribbled upcourt, and Hartnett, their sharpshooting guard, took a fifteen foot jumper from the left corner. It bounced high, and Jammer rebounded, but was off balance, and his shot, which could have won the game, was wild, at the buzzer. Richardson was pleased with the team’s performance, noting that it was the first time yll season that Buffalo had played two good halves of basketball in the same game. “We had a bad thirty seconds here, and a bad minute there, but this was the first time we played a good forty minutes,” Richardson said. “We did exactly what we did in < Acceptable waivers for Spring must be filed with the Student Health Office, Michael Hall, on Tuesday, Feb. 1, 1977 or Wednesday, Feb. 2, 1977 from 9:00 12 A.M.; 1 P.M. to 8 P.M.; or if mailed, reach the Student Healtl ice by Wednesday, Feb. 2 — NOTE Acceptable waivers are only for students who are registered for twelve (or more) credit hours during the Spring, 1977 semester and who were not registered for twelve (or more) credit hours during the Fall, 1976 semester.

New World Orchestra ... \<i It No, J itamih**. DM 5 Sub Board funds not available for ‘NWO’ The publication in the near future of another issue of New World a cooperatively run alternative newspaper, now appears Orchestra, unlikely. After reviewing the expenditures and revenues of Sub Board, a corporation controlled by members of the six student governments. Treasurer Art brdonde determined that the necessary $1000 is not available for one iflaie of New World Orchestra. In seeking funding from Sub Board this year, the paper’s representatives had proposed a budget allowing for four issues to be published this semester, beginning in January. When it appears that efforts to obtain approval for funding of four issues would fail. Sub Board Graduate Student representative Mitch Zoler moved that an experiemenlal issue be tentatively approved. The board of directors of Sub Board voted tentatively last December to fund a single, experimental issue of the newspaper on the condition that the required funds were available. Lalonde’s memo to AVie World Orchestra spokesmen Richard Bronson and Harold Meyrowitz said that although there is still a small amount of discretionary funds available, “there is not enough to cover all requests.” CAC budget cuts "My decision was not reached lightly,” Lalonde’s memo continued, "I spent six hours Wednesday determining Sub Board's financial position. However, if you still wish the funding. I suggest you approach the Board lor a more substantive position.” AVte World Orchestra began in 1975 and continued publishing last year. It had been funded through the Community Action Corps (CAC) but cuts in CAC’s budget ruled out support for New World Orchestra for another year. The paper's format included long, personal feature stories, poetry, radical politics, and a wide assortment of columns and opinion pieces. "The collective 1 AVic World Orchestra I has always been a rather personal venture for all involved.” said Bronson. "We have played the game, and the game failed us, I personally am rather tired of fighting and have O.D.ed on three-hour meetings." Budget Carey proposes TAP cuts by $41 million by Karen Bjornland Special h> The SpecI rum Governor Hugh Carey's 1077-1078 budget has cut the proposed (1AP) by S4I Plan Tuition Assistance dollars. Twenty-seven and a halt million million dollars or more than 67 percent of the cuts are lor awards granted to students in SDNV and CUNY and 27.5 percent or I 1 million to private college students. The budget proposes that when tuition is less than the maximum TAP entitlement, lower division (freshman and sophomore) awards will be reduced by SI00. The cuts apply only to public university students, those whose tuition is less than the S I 500 (SASH) maximum award Carey proposed that student income received from u Basic Opportunity Grant. Social Security or Veterans Benefits he r considered as net taxable income tor TAP award purposes. He also reduced the HOP program funds by a half million dollars. Backlog TAP awards for this year rem'ain tied up. with about 100.000 of the more than 400.000 applications filed still unprocessed education Services the Higher by Corporation. HLSC claims to be beating the backlog, with all but 45.060 of the 425.000 applications submitted before December I already processed, baleen Dickinson. DI SC announced that this move fulfilled last December's public commitment to reduce the backlog to 50.000 applicants by January I. To prevent future TAP backlogs, there are several plans to revamp the program. The procedure for determining financial emancipation has been changed, omitting notarization of the parental signature. In some cases, the separate form for emancipation has been deemed unnecessary where parental income indicates maximum award The Senate Higher education Committee tackled the TAP problem with a p u b I i c a n n ou n c e me n I o f President, recommendations by chairman Ronald B Si afford. Recommendations include: allowing public and private universities to receive advances to up to 75 percent of awards projected for enrolled students permitting financial aid offices at institutions to approve applications before they go to HI;SC, simplification of the application by student representatives and financial aid officials, plus better use ot computers and improved communications between HESC and other agencies and institutions Finally. SUNY has recommended that students who have not yet received awards or award notifications should continue to receive tuition deferrals �Mini-courses will be offered off campus The State University aUBuffalo’s Office for Urban Extension will offer “mini-courses” this sjfing on the black family, technical writing, and two other topics at the Ellicott Community Action Organization Center, 608 William Street, Buffalo. Neighborhood “mini-courses” are designed for persons with jobs or families as well as others who find it difficult to attend class on campus. Millard Fillmore College awards one undergraduate credit for each course successfully completed, but enrollment is not limited to students attending UB’s evening division. The four courses scheduled at the Ellicott CAO will meet in three-hour sessions on Saturdays in February and March. A course on “The Black Family in America” will be held on Saturday mornings beginning February 19, and a class on the “Techniques of Small Group Process” will meet afternoons starting the same day . Both will end on March 19. Tenure Professors find freedom lost in pursuit ofknowledge had been published by Daniel W. Lindley in Japanese rather than in English. Special to The Spectrum Cherished UC Davis students staged a sit-in there in May, 1975 to protest what they termed “the racist and chauvinistic” system. Minority and women’s groups maintain that tenure discriminates against affirmative action; the process, which can often take up to seven years, does not allow them adequate representation on the permanent staff, they contend. And reductions in enrollment and funding often make them the first to be laid off. In the 60’s, some faculty members who protested against the war in Vietnam were refused tenure. Today, those opposing administration policy or the feelings of the faculty review board may be asked not to return. Law suits promulgated against universities by professors who have been denied tenure are not uncommon, and are often based on charges of racism and sexism. • Despite all its disadvantages, however, tenure’s greatest strength may be that those who have it wish to keep it, and those who do not have it hope to get it. Robert Nisbet, writing in the journal Change in Higher Education observes that “there is . . only one honest justification of tenure. It is there. It has been there a long time. Tenure, not freedom, is academic man’s most cherished idol.” (CPS) Tenure’s strongest opponents ironically have injected new life into the long-standing process which 95 percent of American universities use for selecting permanent professors from the ranks of the untenured. In most cases, once tenure has been attained, a faculty member’s position at a university is guaranteed for life except in cases of flagrant violations of existing school codes. Backers of the system emphasize that its greatest benefit is that it ensures tenured faculty, shielded by nearly Growth experience On March 26, a course on “Community Board Systems” will begin impervious job security, greater academic freedom in their pursuit of knowledge. its series of Saturday morning sessions and another, on “Technical The boosters, however, tend to ignore the fact Writing for Mental Health Workers,” will hold its first class that that the system cap result in a loss of academic and, afternoon.

The new price will be effective for all UUAB weekend showings. According to Film Committee Chairman Bob Graham, UUAB was able to implement the price cut due to the success of its films last semester. “The offerings were very well received last semester,” he said. “Very few films lost money.” The decrease in the fee was made possible by a $4,000 increase in the subsidy allocated to the film committee by Sub Board I. The hike raised the Film Committee’s allocation from $16,000 to $20,000. Sub Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde warned that the price reduction may not last for long “because of the increases in film rentals that were announced in December,” Lalonde said, “We aren’t sure if we can make the lower prices stick for the whole semester. But we’re confident that students will respond to the 25 percent reduction in a big enough way to help us make it through the whole semester. After all, what else can you think of that costs less this year than last year?” Free film series Lalonde stated that his reason for favoring the decrease was a concern for the students. “We did better than expected last year,” Lalonde said. “So instead of hanging on to the money we’d likp to return some of it to the students.” Additional resources allocated to the Free Film series have allowed UUAB to expand that program from two nights a week to three. The extra films, whose are free to the showings University community, will allow UUAB to present a film program seven nights a week. Some members of the Film Committee would like to see all films be presented free of charge and view the entrance fee for Conference Theater movies as a necessary evil to secure funds. Programming space at the Amherst Campus has also been made available to the Film Committee. The regular Wednesday night double feature series will be presented as well as a new horror/fantasy series on Tuesday nights at 9:30. UUAB Division Director Jeff Lessoff has shown a strong desire for programming on the Amherst Campus. “As a person who used to live on the Amherst Campus, I realize what a lonely wasteland that place can be. So I’m always in favor of more programming out there,” explained Lessoff. Continuing attempts are being made at securing space for Coffeehouse events at the Ellicott Complex, Lessoff added. Arthur Lalonde Trustees challenge Third World Caucus The SUNY Board of Trustees has invalidated the (SASU) Student Assembly’s seating of the Third World Caucus following a legal challenge lodged by Stony Brook students who claimed the seating violated the Trustee’s policies. A Trustee’s subcommittee has been formed to resolve the problem by their March meeting. .Four Trustees, including Vice Chairman James Warren and Student Assembly President Frank Jackalone, will serve on the sub-committee charged with resolving the needs of traditionally under-represented students in the assembly before the Trustee’s March meeting. Stony Brook representative Bill Harts said, “Basically the student representatives from Stony Brook felt the Assembly was taking the law into their own hands. “Stony Brook is glad that the Trustees reacted the way they did. Maybe now we could proceed with a sane plan of action for representation of non-traditional students." - Forcing their hand Shortly after the Trustees’ decision, a group involved in collegiate religious affairs, the United Ministries of Higher Education, joined with others, including members of the State Legislature, who had previously declared their support for the affirmative action of increasing minority student’s representation in the advisory Student Assembly. c The Student Assembly voted in December 1 >75 to seat the Caucus for their approval. The to the Trustees and forwarded their request Trustees’ failure to deal with the issue in one way or another, even after a year of consultations between students and SUNY officials. This prompted the Student Assembly to seat the Caucus at their Genesee conference in December 1976 as a means ot “forcing their hand, according to Assembly Executive Vice President Dianne Piche. “We’ve been waiting over a year for the Trustees to act on the Caucus issue, so after considering past precedent in affecting changed in the Assembly’s representation, we’ve decided to seat the Caucus, she said. Counterbalance Piche noted that the Student Assembly had amended representation, without waiting for the Trustees’ approval and without any subsequent conflicts, when it voted to create a Community College student’s Vice President position and increase those students representation last June. Caucus delegate James Harwell expressed a need for minority student’s greater representation as an affirmative action needed to counterbalance institutionalized discrimination in SUNY policies and in local campus governance. He said that both these problems reflect larger problems existing in the society at large. “White students do not understand our problems. It’s like an apple; you can look at it, but you don’t know what it tastes like until you bite into it. ‘Members of the Third World Caucus feel that the futures of minority students are at stake. Unless their views and particular problems are represented, their future will never be sound or within their own control.” ---KARATE cub & Thurs.) CLASS TIME 4.30 5:30 pm (Tues.

Page three �Province in turmoil Le Quebecois: caught between two cultures working The impetus given to the Quebec independence movement by the election victory of the Parti Quebecois (PQ) has sparked controversy more over the maintenance of both anglophone and francophone cultures. The issue, implicitly related to provincial economics and politics, is most pressingly evident in the use of spoken French and English there. It is a fact that there are more francophones who speak English to varying degrees than anglophones who speak French in Quebec. Yet it is difficult (for an American) to comprehend why one group speaks the other language only as a last resort and why,'members of both groups mix with relative difficulty. Is the mastering of a second language not something of an art. much like writing or painting, where knowledge of basic and grammar, vocabulary idiomatic expressions lends to a better understanding of the cultures, inherent and consequently promotes better relations between the two? "I know how to speak English, hut I don't want to be forced to use it.” said Daniel Jean, an editor of a small monthly journal in Quebec and a coordinator of the International Center (a youth hostel) there. “Becuase such a great majority of people here are Quebecois. everything should be done in French," he continued. “Then, if someone wanted to learn English as a leisure or to travel with, there would be little objection. Now we must learn it simply to exist. This is one reason many Quebecois view English as ’the language of the oppressor.’ itself. Typical is the story of the young Quebccpis who visits a village in France and is forced to speak English with its inhabitants (what English they know) because they can't understand his French. ' " French for workers It must be noted however, that when a stranger makes it clear that he can speak good French, many Quebecois are eager to demonstrate their ability to speak English. Thus, conversation ensues (especially after a few Molsons) with the foreigner speaking French and the Quebecois responding in English. Conversely, many English speakers, especially in Montreal, never felt the need to learn French. Because most wholesale business transactions and corporate decisions are made in English. French has always been the “language of the working class.” It was always imperative to know a few words, such as eomhien how much, or je ne cumprcncls pas I don’t understand French, or 'll runs \ plait nurd, but Fnglish speakers ceneralK fell that in the event of any the misundersianding francophone should be called upon to speak Fnglish. This trend of thought was based on either the former’s inability to speak French or his feeling that Fnglish should be spoken in Quebec as it is in the rest of Canada, but in neither case explained or excused inability. The French spoken in Qi is a subject of controversy Page four . in K'es-lu lulil? The Quebecois people, in general, run articles into nouns, attach pronouns to verbs, drop helping verbs from past particiles (e.g.. I have gone I gone), employ phrases and expressions dating from the 18th century, and pronounce vowels with a certain flatness and nasality that makes Frenchmen from France cringe (although it can be said that some Frenchmen cringe at anything that isn't strictly French.). Some intellectuals connected with the independence movement over the years maintain that the use and acceptance of "joual" is the intrinsically related to Quebecois' search tor nationalist identity. Most noticable to the French-speaking American is the number of English words found in slang, especially among young people. When a street cleaner looks up and remarks. “C'est pas Inline, la djohbe dans la sinteh" (Work is not fun in the slush), his words are the fruits of two hundred years' English influence on “la langue qneheeoise." Hear the English-struck slang of the young man in Sherbrooke who says. “Y lain helm crusher. . (You have to put the pressure on . . .). or ”./’cruz les bars." The list of anglicisms is endless.

This entails using natural heat beneath the earth’s crust, the wind, organic wastes, and direct solar energy for our heating and lighting needs. The technology for those systems is simple, well understood, and in some cases, ancient. This article will explain the extent of the research about these renewable energy systems for everyday use and examine why we are not presently using this knowledge. Solar power is a source of abundant 'clean, safe energy. The amount of solar energy from sunshine striking the'United States is several times our annual energy consumption. Two major technologies solar heating and solar electricity generation have been proven experimentally. Solar hot water heaters were used extensively in California and Florida before World War II and are used today in North Africa, Israel, Australia and Japan. In japan therel are over 2.5 million — — of these heaters which heat over one fourth of all Japanese baths. The technology to use solar panels for space heating has been available for forty years, but left unused except by the rich due to its high cost. The atomic age Like the sun, the wind is an inexhaustible source of energy. The wind provided has mechanical power for pumping water and milling grains through the centures. In 1941 the world’s largest windmill was producing energy for the people in Rutland, Vermont. In 1946 one of the windmill’s blades broke and it-was never repaired. Methane, producing gas for heating, is the natural process of decaying organisms. People have been hastening this natural process for centuries by composting for fertilizer. The “scientific” study of composting for gases dates from the early part of this century when industrial scale plants were built. The United States exploded into the atomic age only three decades ago pumping billions of dollars into its development, but the mass production of low cost solar systems, the principles of which have been utilized for centuries, is still unavailable. Solar cooling systems are not even at a prototype stage for commercial use! Only 3.4 percent of the government’s energy research funds are spent on solar energy and one of these few projects that is funded uses solar energy to purify uranium for nuclear reactors. Major advances Individuals and small companies had been largely responsible for research done with solar power until the profitability attracted big business. Names like Grumann Aviation, Honeywell and RCA now* be associated with solar can equipment. The companies just mentioned specialize in water based solar equipment. Air or water can be used to capture the heat from solar collectors, water being much more complicated and less easily accessible for the average homeowner. The major problem with wind power is its unpredictibility. advances in Recent major industry methods, energy storage designs and fuel cells have increased its present day attractiveness. With the safer, cleaner technologies available, why are our utilities still destroying square miles of land, producing' carcihogenics from nuclear power, polluting the air with toxic sulfur from coal, and spending billions of our dollars battery doing it? No regulations Our electric utilities are privately owned corporations. Unlike other corporations they are monopolies meaning that they do not have to compete for their consumers and we do not have the choice to reject their service if we want heat and light unless we can produce our own. Utility profits do not fluctuate as with other corporations. The profit is guaranteed yearly by the Public Service Commission (PSC), the state agency which regulates the electric, gas, and phone monopolies in New York State. Its seven-person Board of the is appointed by governor. There are no regulations which prohibit appointing commissioners who have previously worked for the utilities they now regulate. For instance, the present chairperson, Alfred Kahn, is a former consultant to American Telegraph and Telephone at a price of $70,000 over a five-year period. The first step of the PSC in determining the amount of money to be received by the utility is finding the level of revenues the utility is entitled to earn from the sale of its services. The basic rule is that a utility can charge rates that guarantee enough money to cover its cost of service including a fair rate of return (profit). The problem with privately owned monopolistic corporations is to determine what is fair betweeruthe investors and the customefs, since what is fair for the investor is not necessarily fair for the customers. Padding To determine the cost of service, the PSC looks at the utility’s rate base, which represents the amount of money the company has invested in its operation. It includes such things as fuel costs, DON QUIXOTE AND THE NOVEL (in English) 1:00 -1:50- AAWF Acheson Annex 4 Comp. Lit. No. 495 and Spanish No. 424 maintenance, new plants and salaries. These costs are covered by the revenues collected from our bills and from stocks and bonds purchased by the investors. In Order to ensure that the money continues to flow into the utilities from the investors, the PSC must make the dividends to the investors as attractive as those dividends in other corporations. This dividend is determined by taking a percentage (about 9 percent) of the rate base. Therefore, the larger the rate base', the more profit the utility. For example, a $1 billion rate base will guarantee the utility investors $90 million in profits. If the rate base increases to $1.2 billion the profits increase to $108 million. This leads to padding the rate base with high salaries, unnecessary facilities and costly fuels. The utilities do not work alone in insuring themselves high rate bases. For one of the controlling example, shareholders in both Niagara Mohawk and National Fuel Gas, both Buffalo utilities, is Marine Midland Bank, the $13 billion bank whose board of directors are interlocked with most of the other utilities and large corporations around the state. One hand washes the other. Tax incentives The government also helps to insure utility profits by having tax incentives for using high rate base nuclear and fossil fuels as opposed to using lower rate base renewable sources of energy. Examining recent tax structure shows that taxes on a nuclear power plant are 19 percent while taxes on a hydro are 22 percent. Utilities have followed the precedent set by Howard Insull, the millionaire who first controlled Ben Franklin’s lightbulbs, which has small and residential energy users subsidize the larger commercial and industrial users. This has resulted in industry not producing its own power .from its waste heat and in effect, increases the demand for power from the utility utilities rate base. and again raises the Sources of fuel that are without cost do not increase the rate base and in fact lower the rate base as they replace costly fossil and nuclear fuels. There is today no production of solar equipment, since general availability to the public will result in diminishing the profits of those rich individuals, banks and corporations that are investors in the utility. The picture is bleak but not without the proverbial ray of sunshine. As our fossil fuels are becoming depleted and the landscapes ravaged, pressures are being put onto the utilities to develop the “alternative” sources of energy. The pressure is not presently sufficient and it is questionable if the combined effort utility workers, environmentalists, consumers and political activists will outweigh the powerful small sector which controls the utilities and their interlocks. r ,—■■■——! cant you If Buffalo the find action you like here, ids illegal!

Tie-lines allow unlimited state wide long distance telephone calling at a monthly fee averaging $30 to $50. They are the life blood of student organizations which depend on communication with offices in other cities the state, and calls to legislators in Albany and Washington Tie-lines are also used as a fringe benefit for any student affiliated with an organization that has one, who can call home and call friends at other schools without charge. They are also grossly abused in this way, and now might be a good time to stop The memp H. frjom William Assistant to the Vice-President and Comptroller, says that although access to existing University tie-lines will end, separate tie-lines will be made available for purchase "specifically for and restricted to also recommended and demanded the expulsion/suspension of-Steve Speigel.

It was then discovered that although I had used a No. 2 pencil, the computer did into the budget of virtually any student organization, that paying that much for tie-lines would amount to devastation Especially in a year when the Student Association (SA) budget is expected to be tighter than ever Think about that for a minute. If they cannot obtain inexpensive tie-line service, NYPIRG would have to pay for every call it makes to Albany or Washington; SA would be charged long-distance rates each time they contacted student leaders in Albany; UUAB would have to pay for every call to a film or talent agent in New York; The Spectrum would be charged for each call to a fellow SUNY school The effect would be to discourage communication among students and student groups, fragmenting all the efforts that have been made to involve students here in a state wide lobby, and to act on the issues which concern us, If the University administration is looking for extra revenue in the upcoming fiscal period, they ought to know that they will set students here back five years in doing so, by limiting contact with other students to a pay-as you-go basis, or forcing them to accept enormous new expenses instead The Speculum Vol. 27, Mo. 48 Wednesday, 26 January 1977 Editor-in-Chtef - Rich Korman Managing Editor Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt - - — - The Spectrum is served by the College Press Service, Field Newspaper Syndicate.

Mayer Thanks for ‘Deep Throat cancellation ’ Dear Ladies and Gentlemen I would like lo express my deeply felt appreciation for the cancellation of the Saturday of that showings unmentionable film night (unmentionable because I don’t seek to give it any more publicity). I realize that most of those young adults who would've attended the showing arc pure of mind and body, yet an understandable, if even mischievous (“Boys will be boys!") intellectual curiosity might have started them on the unfortunately oft-trodden road of moral degeneracy ("Ignorance is bliss."). It might be argued by freethinkers (some of I realize, haven't malicious intent, but are only misguided) that such a showing is only harmless whom. fun. and it keeps young adults off the streets. What they fail to acknowledge, however, is that it’s only of secondary importance that they be kept off the streets, rather, what’s really important is that they be kept out of another’s bedroom (I beg forgiveness for the frankness of my speech, but when opposing evil forces we must “call it like it is,” to borrow an expression.). I would like to conclude with my personal thanks, since, I, too,, considered attending the cancelled showings. I shall sleep well, though my dreams may not be too exciting, thanks to the ever-stalwart efforts of my protectors to whom I am much indebted. Let’s lend throaty cry to responsible citizenship!

(It should be noted that the Peace Center office number is 833-0213; it was misprinted in the Jan. 24 article.) Walter Simpson Distortion and bias I To the l:\lilor I have recently been impressed with The Spednun's coverage of the highly sensitive issue of the assault of SA Hxecutive Vice President Steve Spiegel by officers of the BSU and Third World Vets. Unfortunately, Bernice Sullivan departed from this tone of objectivity and moderation which The Spectrum had been adopting in its previous news articles. Instead, Ms. Sullivan, through none too subtle shadings, to use her article attempted for commentary purposes under the guise of mere reporting. Ms. Sullivan feels it is important to point out the races of the deliberating body, although that standard was dropped years ago from news reporting. She goes on to say that, “Speigel himself indicated that (he) kicked and engaged in fisticuffs with Lott.” She might instead have said that he tried to defend himself. The next time Ms. Sullivan finds herself in similar, unfortunate, circumstances, I suggest she just leave her hands limply at her sides and see what the outcome is. Finally, Ms. Sullivan chose bits and pieces of testimony in an attempt to build -a case of vindication. She might instead have chosen to quote one of the defense witnesses who had no problem with the beating occurring, but felt that it was justifiable under “the law of the ghetto.” Fortunately, someone else was assigned to write the editorial. and a call to reason.” ”... Arthur ./. I.alonde. Jr Distortion and bias II Over the years 1 have seen biased, absurd coverage of stories in The Spectrum but Monday’s front page story a bout the expulsion of the students who took part in the beating of I xecutive Vice President Steve Spiegel won all prizes for being prejudicial. 7 he Spectrum writer, Bernice Sullivan, situation. I’m afraid I can’t work up much sympathy lor someone who hurt himself while heating on another person. I guess I'm heartless. Sullivan also points out that no one could determine who started the beating. It makes little sense to consider for a minute that Steve started a light. Me had no reason to start a fight and we have the statement from provoked the beating. What bull! Steve rightfully refused to sign the recpiest form for payment of Christmas decorations because of the long history of budgetary abuses in the BSD allocation. Because of this he was severely beaten. Sullivan acts outraged that Steve did not stand still and accept his beating.calmly. Sullivan writes in outraged tones of how Steve tried to defend himself. Then Sullivan writes that it was "revealed for the first time that Lott suffered lacerations to the head the acting BSU president that "It s his (Spiegel’s) fault he was beat.” No one deserves to be beat. Statements like that are sick. finally Sullivan calls the attack a “two sided black and white issue.” It is not a black vs. white issue. It has nothing to do with racism. It has to do with budgetary abuses and an unprovoked savage beating.- 7 he S/)ciirtnn story was a disgusting example ot the worst kind of Yellow Journalism. They have made an art form of distortion and biased a fractured right hand.” It was hardly a closely guarded secret. I found out about it the day after the and 11 Page eight The* Spectrum .

Jimmy Carter is installed now. Can he govern? Some auspices are good. The national mood is hopeful; we aren’t at war; the Republican recession (worst since the Republican Depression of the 30’s) is getting better. The American public watches eagerly curious and apprehensive. It is willing to believe . . . no, strike that, it is yearning to believe. Jimmy Carter wakened great expectations which he can’t fulfill if at all. Like immediately, Kennedy 16 years ago, he won by the narrowest majority and, like Kennedy, he is it. As he starts his you-all, not-just-yet administration; we may expect any day now a magazine article beginning, “He does, too, have a - sense of humor.” We shall all know who is meant. with the Unfamiliarity scene is evident Washington Griffin Bell everywhere. ,The nomination for the Justice the Ted Sorensen choice for the CIA, may or may not have been justified but anyone here could have known they were predestined to cause expolsions; the Carter team did not know this or may have Department, but not one as big as they got. These reflections came to us crouched over a pine table in the expected a row inaugural press section trying to keep warm. Each inaugural has a “first;” you know the first automobile, the first loudspeaker, the first TV broadcast — that kind of thing. For us 1977 was the first - plastic garbage bag inaugural. The Rbd Cross suggested it. Sixteen years ago, we sat shivering to Kennedy’s “Ask not” speech with feet buried in a snow drift feeling sorry for George Washington at Valley Forge. This time we snuggled into our comfortable garbage bag with all the, bodily heat trapped in from toes to waist. One thing Carter has done, he has brought in a new economic team. The story of Jerry Ford could be entitled, “How to manage the economy so as to lose an election,” He could hardly have arranged to hurt himself more. He and his conservative advisers agreed: keep hands off; to veto job and spending bills to prevent inflation, ami then private enterprise, not government, will come riding on its white horses to the rescue. A recession as steep as this, it was generally believed, would bring a correspondingly quick recovery. Instead of that it came slowly. Then there was the Mystery of the ten Billion Dollars. Somehow or other, that ambunt of money is projected budget expenditures never was spent. The story of the “shortfall” is still unraveled. (It seems to have been in Defense appropriations and will come out in driblets from noty on.) At a time when the economy needed a shove it wasn’t there. The recovery came to a pausejust in the critical months of the 1976 campaign; just when the S6 billion jobs bill that Ford vetoed last Spring might otherwise have been Rivlin, taking effect. Alice director of the Congressional Budget Office, reckoned that the shortfall lowered the rate of growth in Gross National Product by one percent. The White House team had a fixation on inflation although, as Walter Heller told the Senate last week, the modest fiscal stimulus program “won’t come within a country mile of generating excess-demand inflation.” The country is safer, I think, for having the Ford team replaced. James Reston described ex-Treasury Secretary William Simon economic theologian.” A rapt look came into his eyes as he expounded his creed. He called the food-stamp program “a well-known haven for chiselers and rip-off artists.” He assured the president that New York City’s default would be “tolerable and temporary.” On the day Mr. Ford issued his economic farewell message last week, Simon had a letter in the Wall Street Journal reproaching that radical organ for dangerous thoughts funding on Social expression. He gently chides Americans for “a tendency, born of goodwill and a desire to improve the state of American life, which makes us think we can create costless benefits for our people” That’S why he cast vetoes. “Nowhere,” he continues, “are those tradeoffs so evident as in our Social Security program and in our efforts to provide medical people.” insurance for our He seems to be saying that we can’t afford insurance; we can’t revise Security funding, which most regressive of all our health Social is the taxes. Other nations can; we can’t. Moderate liberal Charles Schultze replaces Ayn Rand fundamentalist Alan Greenspan as chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers. Other names go up on Washington’s doors of power. One odd one, incidentally, is Zbigniew Brezezinski, national security adviser; nobody has caused more tumult in composing rooms since C!zolgosz shot McKinley. As Mr. Carter takes office the three kingpin industrial countries are standing like-small boys on a raft each urging the others to jump in. The pond is the world economic crisis. Each country wants the other to go first, to stimulate, to reflate, to risk more inflation. The recovery in the US still is tentative; most other countries are in bad shape; the developing countries are in desperate shape. The gap between rich and poor is getting bigger. If you think this exaggerated, note that Jimmy Carter (who'was acting president three or four oath) weeks before taking dispatched Richard Cooper, his Undersecretary of State fpr Economic Affairs, to Tokyo; it’s one reason for sending Fritz Mondale to Europe and Japan, it’s one reason we can expect the himself to attend an economic Summit meeting in Europe, maybe, in late May. Somebody has to coordinate president signals. “There’s substantial risk of a recession,” world Brookings expert Lawrence Krause told Congress. The danger devaluations, is high tariffs, capital flow restrictions all the dirty tricks nations can use to beggar their neighbors. It brought Hitler in the 300s. ■ Big shot Reginald Jones of General Electric testified that the “world economy is in such premature — precarious condition that AMERICAN stagnation could lead the whole world into another recession things many How must President Carter fix up? Amnesty, Panama Canal, SALT talks, China, the Middle East. And now add another: The world e economy , Security. So far as known Mr. Ford never deviated from his team’s way of thinking. His economic message gives the philosophy final Wednesday, 26 January 1977 .The Spectrum . Page eleven ��Ignorance is shown by one professional An associate editor of the publication. National Observer, has taken it upon himself to define the roles in the life of a journalist. There are four stages that the journalist passes through, according to Roscpe C. Born, the first stage being the Student Journalist. Born has some condescending things to say about the ‘Young Reporter,’ the ‘Veteran Journalist,’ and the ‘Good Gray Journalist,’' stages two through four. While Born makes a sound call for creativity and journalistic fire, his feelings toward the student journalist are not entirely accurate. Listen to this: “The Student Journalist loves to rattle the cages. He or she regards it as a great journalistic triumph to get four-letter words printed in the student daily.” “The Student Journalist makes every effort to go so far that the student newspaper may be censored so he can then crusade against censorship of the student newspaper.” (CPS) — A faint fanfare Perhaps Born has never been involved in a censorship case but if he had he would know that they are unpleasant, unfriendly and rarely bring any immediate triumphs in the name of the First Amendment. Several years ago the president of the University of Texas-Permian Basin didn’t like an editorial in the student newspaper and had all 1300 copies of the issue shredded. He then fired the student editor and turned the paper into a house organ for the administration. So censorship is not a picnic and Mr. Born’s saying that students are out for just a good journalistic fight is like saying the New York Times would libel itself for the sake of spending a day in court. Absurd. Instead, the ensuing censorship hassles often have drastic results. A case in point is one which involved the advisor of a community college paper. Patricia Endress helped a school paper investigate a story uncovering an alleged conflict of interest involving the chairman of the school’s board of directors last year.

Decorative Quilting Co. 448 East 183rd Street Bronx, New York 10458 Tel. (212)584-2216 Last week, the wrestling Bulls traveled to both Cleveland State and Binghamton in an attempt to beiter their team record. But after each meet, the Bulls came away with two entirely different views ot themselves as a team. First, against the Vikings of Cleveland State, the Buffalo squad was manhandled 30-5, but came back later in the week to overwhelm the Colonials of Binghamton, 30-9. Buffalo coach Ed Michael had a good explanation for the loss. “Cleveland State is conceivably the best team on our schedule,’’ he said. “They are one hell of a team.” Michael explained the tremendous difference between Buffalo and Cleveland State as “our inability to compete on their level. Cleveland State had too many big guns tor us and we had too many big guns for Binghamton." Michael is right in his observation concerning his team’s performance against both opponents. Against Cleveland State, Kirk Anderson was the only victorious Bull with Ray Pfiefer scoring a draw. In contrast, seven Brills were able to win their contests against Binghamton. They included Tony Oliver! (118). Ed Tyrrell (134). Anderson (1 58), Bot? Martineck (167). Dave Mitchell (177). Rich Bopp (190). and Tom Gravell (hwt.). Witli a dual meet record of 3-5, the Bulls will be taking on Locke Haven State College tonight at 8 p.m. in the Clark Gym. Michael rates this match “a toss'up." He added, “It should be tight. I hope our boys rise to the occasion.” But the odds are certainly not on the Bulls’ side. Going against Locke Haven, the Buffalo grapplers will be met by a team that boasts a dual meet record of 10-3-1. and lour top wrestlers who are having outstanding seasons. Locke Haven standouts include Tim McCalley and George Way who hold individual records ol 11-0-1. with Mike Moore and A1 Fricke with comparable records of 10-2. Although the season has been a turbulent one thus far. co-captain Anderson is having his best season as a Bull. Michael considers him "a fine athlete, and one who should do well in post-season tournaments. Anderson’s excellent dual meet record of 7-1 can only be overshadowed by his overall record ot 15-3. since he has competed against some of the top wrestlers in the country. In his most recent contest. Anderson won his dual meet match lor the West squad, in the New York Stale Last-West All-Star Meet at Syracuse University. Although Anderson won, the West squad and the other Buttalo wrestler entered, Ray Pfiefer. lost. THERE WILL BE AN ACADEMIC AFFAIRS TASK FORCE MEETING Thursday, January 27th at 4 pm in room 234 Norton. Members and anyone interested are urged to attend This week.s meeting will include: The opening of the A.A.T.F. office at Amherst Brief exposes by each club rep. concerning their club’s present and future activities. — — Future Task Force activities Replacement of Ron Carry, who has dropped out of the Senate SHU SEARCHING FOR THAT FOURTH COURSE? Uncertain on what the course professor is going to teach? The spring’s course description handbooks are still available. Copies can be picked up either in Diefendorf or in 205 Norton. Kirk Anderson continued to wrestle like a star last week. The Bulls' co-captain picked up the team's only win during a lopsided loss to Cleveland State, and then pinned Vince Pinque of Binghamton on Saturday to lead the Bulls tp victory. Anderson's record in dual meets is now 7-1, and counting tournaments, he is 15-3 for the season. Kirk Anderson is our Athlete-Of-The-Week. Buffalo teams face action over weekend On Saturday, the hockey Bulls picked up their fifth straight win, team women’s bowling second place in the R.l.T. invitational tournament, and the indoor track squad, opening its season, wound up losing to Fredonia at the Bubble the captured 70-21, The Buffalo skaters trounced Potsdam 10-1, as they raised their season’s record to 8-8. More importantly, they upped their Division II record to 7-3. (Only the Division II record is used to determine the playoff qualifiers.) Buffalo’s power-play was in high gear, as they picked up five power-play goals. Jack Kaminska also added a shorthanded goal with just seven seconds left in the game. Karl Koeppel, a defenseman, opened the scoring just I;02 into the game, and the Bulls were never headed. Buffalo goalie John Moore turned back 24 shots, while the Bulls fired 54 shots at the beleaguered Potsdam goalie. The hockey Bulls will once again take the ice this Saturday at Cortland, in another Division II Buffalo trounced contest. Cortland earlier in the season. Bowlers finish second The howlers, after a slow start, returned from the Christmas break with a strong performance in the R.l.T. invite. Their season’s record is now 28-6. (iigi Ruddy, a senior from Utica, once again was Buttalo’s leading howler with a 173 average. Pat Schaefer averaged 161.5. Chris replaced Liz who Clemente, Wolszczak after two games, howled a 159, and Minna Gould followed with a 151.2 average. I he Buffalo keglers occupied fifth place after the first round, hut bowled their best game of the season in the final round to move into second place, behind Oswego. “The girls are concentrating more,” said Buffalo coach Jane Poland. “They’ve adjusted to the lanes.” The track meet marked the return of former Buffalo track star Fldred Stephens to Buffalo, only this time he was wearing a Fredonia uniform. Stephens, who had been virtually a one man team for the Bulls, transferred after track was demoted from varsity to club status. Bulls win once Stephens was the only athlete to pick up two wins, as he and captured the sixty three-hundred yard dashes. Buffalo was able to pick up a first place in only one event, the two-mile run, as cross-country runner Mike Fischer led Buftalo teammate John Ryerson across the finish line.

Thomas, president of Third World Vets, and Robert Tribble, by Beunice Sullivan Spectrum Staff Writer The Hearing Committee for the Maintenance of Public Order recommended late Thursday night that two students be while a third student be suspended expelled for the alleged assault last month of Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Steven Spiegel and Mary Palisano, an SA employee. The deliberating panel, consisting of five white males and one black female, requested the expulsion of John Lott, an executive Board member of the Black another BSU Board member. The decision came on the second day of hearings begun Wednesday afternoon wich continued late into the night, and were resumed at I p.m. Thursday. Spiegel testified Wednesday that he did not provoke the fight in the SA office in Norton Hall but only gestured to calm things down. During questioning by defense attorney Wilfred Anderson and Prosecutor Howard Meyer, defense witnesses and Spiegel himself University indicated that Spiegel kicked and engaged in fisticuffs with Lott. Spiegel received cuts and bruises on his head and body. It was revealed for the first time that Lott suffered lacerations to the head and a fractured right hand. Palisano, while attempting to break up the fight, had the cartilege in her nose fractured. She stated that the injury “was unintentional.” Thomas testified that while attempting to disengage Spiegel and Lott, Spiegel kicked him in the groin area and that he (Thomas) had a natural reaction to kick back. assault Tribble, who took no part in the actual fighting, received no injuries. Palisano, Ruth Dorey, and Theresa Tricola, all SA employees who were present in the SA office at the time of the conflict, reported at the hearing that they could not actually determine who started the fight. The outcome of Thursday’s trial of this two-sided black and white issue must be finalized by the approval of activing University President Albert Somit. A civil lawsuit filed by Spiegel and Palisano will be heard in City Court following a pretrial hearing on February 8. IRC film ‘Deep Throat’ too risky to swallow by Charles Greenburg Campus Editor that the copy of the movie on campus was the original, uncut version of Deep Throat rather than the “watered down” version that had been created for viewing in areas that banned the original. According to IRC spokesman film Cohen, Robert the distribution had already rented out 15 films in the uncut version to which include colleges Hamilton, Cortland, Cornell and SUNY at Binghamton. Cornell was the only college that encountered problems because of the screening, he said, and those were related to the school administration and not with the , Several hundred disgrnutled students .poured from Farber Hall after they were informed that Deep Throat would not be shown last Friday night. All weekend showings of the Linda Lovelace film were cancelled by the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), who had originally scheduled the screenings. The decision was reached by Ellen Schwartz, IRC Vice President of Activities and of (Lumpa) Drucker Bruce Communication Inter-Campus (ICC) after a day of last-minute consultations with outside authorities. This was not the first time the controversy stirred film in Buffalo. On October 9, 1973, a temporary court order prohibited the screening of Deep Throat at the Allendale Theater, resulting in a permanent injunction banning the showing of the uncut version of the film in Buffalo. At that time, State Supreme Court Justice Norman Stiller ruled that the controversial and profitable film was obscene within the meaning of the law and banned further showings. He termed the “patently film offensive, lewd, perverted and utterly without redeeming social value” after viewing a special showing held in Erie County Hall. upon discovering that the uncut Deep Throat was forbidden in Buffalo, IRC officials sought approval to show a self-edited version of the film. After receiving a phone call from Ronald Dollman of Student Affairs concerning the nature of the film, Schwartz turned to Drucker for Drucker then assistance. contact the to proceeded Police, University University counsel Hilary Bradford, David Brownstein, who turn in consulted IRC attorney Jack Geller, and the Buffalo District Attorney’s Office. 'Clearly illegal’ During the course of these consultations, it was determined community. The movie will cost IRC over in rental and in the projectionist’s fee even though the film was not shown, according to Throat was Drucker. Deep ordered last summer by Schwartz after month-long search for the distributor that rents the film, she said. After finally tracking down the film, she said she never suspected the film would cause any trouble on campus adding that “everyone on campus would get a kick” out of the screening. Schwartz was informed Friday the District by afternoon Attorney’s office that it was “clearly illegal” to show the uncut version in Buffalo. She was also informed that the University administration did not want it shown. Dollman also relayed to Drucker that if the film was presented on campus the Buffalo Police would have to be informed. $300 Watered down version Drucker then tried to determine if the movie could be shown upon the expurgation of several explicit scenes, thus having it appear as the “watered down” version. Citing the extensive cooperation of University Police, Drucker was able to contact the Buffalo City Police, whereupon it was decided that a judge would have to be consulted to decide if the cut version merited a pornographic rating. Drucker summarily contacted several judges under the assuption that if the Deep Throat scenes were eliminated it might be permissible to show the film. Amherst Judge Sherwood Bestry, who was contacted in Florida where he is vacationing until Monday, did not make a definite committment that would allow the showing of the film last weekend on the Amherst Campus. He was unable to get in touch with the other Amherst Town Judge Edward Robinson. Risk the consequences Drucker also contacted Judge Carmelo Parlota of Buffalo. Drucker said that based on the information obtained from the two judges and a police officer, it make to a impossible is pre-determination of what is a pornographic film. Under the existing procedures in the City of Buffalo, someone must first show the film, whereupon a complaint will be brought to the police, who in turn make a formal complaint before a judge. The judge then issues an order to confiscate the film and arrest three people involved with the screening: the ticket seller, the projectionist and the individual in charge. Schwartz, as the person in charge, had made Friday bail arrangements afternoon. Drucker said the resulting from all of the opinion consultation was that if the film was shown, the aforementioned risk the participants consequences. He added that he received work from reliable sources within Buffalo that the movie could not be shown without incident within the City. This week he will be in touch with the proper authorities in the Town of Amherst, to petition an Amherst Campus showing of the “watered down”- version of the movie.

The Parti Quebecois (PQ) ran against the Conservative Party and the incumbent Liberals, by whom they were narrowly defeated in 1970 and 1973. Many Quebecers have blamed the Liberals for the economic stagnation and high unemployment rate which have beset the province, a trend of contributed thought which heavily to the victory of the PQ.

Editor’s note: The following in the second in a series of five prepared by the New commentary York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) on alternative energy resources. This installment V.S. energy discusses present policy and where it is leading us. by Marvin Resnikoff Special to the Spectrum reactors — comes from the sun and the earth. It is both renewable, abundant and non-renewable finite. Yet, as the preceding installment in this series pointed out, the practices of the electric utilities are leading us down the dead-end path of central generating stations and the use of non-renewable resources. How does this fit in with U.S. energy policy? Our current energy policy is energy independence by 1985. The underlying assumption is that there will be a general growth in energy consumption, because, so the reasoning goes, energy growth is tied to GNP and general social welfare. The more energy growth presumably the better off we are. Energy independence implies a minimization of oil general imports. If energy use increases, while oil imports decrease, the implications are obvious: an increase in' coal, through stripmining, converting it to electricity, synthetic fuels and gases; an increase in domestic oil, implying Arctic oil wells, more offshore oil wells, and shale oil; and finally, a general increase in nuclear fission, leading eventually towards the breeder reactor. This policy throws in a pinch of conservation, pushes alternate energy sources far into the future technology is terribly (the complicated, you know), and envisions the long term picture as of fission breeders, breeders and solar electricity, all centrally generaged. For the next ten years, here’s what energy independence means: -900 new oil wells offshore the 48 contiguous States ' 170 new coal mines (200 million tons/yr. in the West plus mixture fusion — FOR A COLLEGE MARKET OF 50,000 WHAT'S HAPPENED TO THE BUSINESS?

It a 120 million tons/yr. underground plus stripmined in the East) 100 new uranium mines and — —60 conventional plus 100 pumped storage hydro facilities —350 gas turbines All this for the period 1976 to 1985. Mining for coal and uranium would turn the arid West upside down, destroying grazing and farming lands and uprooting thousands of communities. We would in effect be burning down our house to keep us warm. Cost to taxpayers If this “energy independence” plan is translated into dollars, the cost will be over $1 trillion for the alone. years next ten Three-quarters of that amount would be for electrification and the other quarter for synthetic fuels and the like. The drain on the capital markets will be enormous, making it difficult for industry to expand and use the available energy; the electric utilities would be chewing up their own customers. The recently released budget of ERDA (Energy Research and Development Administration) for the 1977 fiscal year reflects this policy. Research and development money goes predominantly into fission and fusion research, with only 8 percent of the budget remaining for solar, wind and geothermal energy sources and conservation. There is hope that the Carter administration will begin to change these national priorities. He has already labelled Project Independence, “a farce,” and has called for dramatic conservation measures. He has recognized that 50 percent of our overall energy is wasted. He believes that mandated vehicle and appliance efficiency mandatory standards, and in building improvements insulation, are required. Carter has also said that we must exploit the potential of solar energy in the construction of new homes and offices.

Centre Page three �Roths tuition tax credit fizzes out of Congress Strapped by tuition and cost of living increases, many students and their families were looking for a tax break last summer to provide relief from the high cost of going to school. Congress was rewriting the tax laws and one move considered was a tuition tax credit. and, at one point, approved by the Senate This proposal would have allowed taxpayers to subtract a small portion of the money they spent on tuition and fees initially, up to $100 from their tax bill. The House didn’t include the proposal in their tax bill, however, and the credit was eventually dropped from what was to become the Tax Reform Act of 1976. For students, nothing changed. The original Senate proposal was sponsored by Senator William Roth (R.—Del.) and provided a $100 tax credit for tuition and fees beginning next year, with stepped increases of $50 bringing the credit to a $250 maximum by 1980. Total cost for the ill-fated credit was estimated at $1.1 billion per year by the time the credit reached the (CPS) - — — - Record Coop hours and Tuesday and The Record Coop will be open all this week from 12 noon till 2:30, new Saturday including shortly, be available Wednesday nights at 6:30.

It was a short lived dilmma. When the House-Senate conference junked the tuition credit, students were left exactly where they were : when the debate started: with no tax break, no tax reform, and facing the prospect of ever increasing educational costs.

Other critics have argued the proposal would provide little or no relief for those most in need: lower income families and independent students. Some of these critics have claimed a much more effective strategy would be to add the $1.1 billion onto the Basic Grants program, thys expanding eligibility for the program and increasing grant maximums. In one curious twist on the concept of reform, Senator Charles Mathias (R.—Md.) argued in favor of the tuition credit precisely because so many tax breaks already went to the wealthy. “Adoption of this amendment will give a small benefit to a very large group of taxpayers who will be footing the bill for so many of the tax breaks the Senate has seen fit to give to business and high income individuals,” said Mathias. “Low and middle income citizens also deserve the favorable consideration of the Senate.” All the cries for reform and calls for aid to students and their families, however, got students nowhere. “Only the wealthy can afford to send their children through college without imposing a great financial strain on the entire family,” said Senator Mathias. “Lower and middle income families must rely on student financial aid, bank loans and work-study programs.” “The record demonstrates that these are not sufficient to meet the costs of education,” continued Mathias. “As a result, families are thrown into debt, or a student graduates from college with a financial burden that must be carried on for years.” Postdoctoral position The Faculty of Health Sciences has announced research in for postdoctoral opening bioenergetics.

Friendship Committee, a task force of the Peace Center, presented a check to Friendship to help construct a hospital at My Lai, the scene of the brutal 1968 civilian massacre. Progress reports were also presented by coordinators from four other Peace Center task forces on the struggle for unconditional and universal amnesty, the fight to block funding of the B-l bomber, the United Farmworkers unionization struggle and the fight against hunger in underdeveloped countries and at home. The Peace Center is also a sponsor of' the Buffalo chapter of Non-Intervention in Chile (NICH), which has been working to educate the American people about the 1973 fascist coup, and to pressure congressional representatives to cut off all aid to the military junta. Hospitals needed The American-Vietnamese Friendship Committee launched its fund-raising campaign two-and a half years ago, originally only to build a village health clinic in an area in South Vietnam that was controlled by the Provisional Government. Since the Revolutionary liberation of the south, the committee decided to put the money towards urgently needed hospitals, and raised its goal from $4,600 to $5,000. Along with educational work about Vietnam, the committee has been pressuring government leaders to admit the Socialist Republic of Vietnam into the United Nations, and to fulfill its commitment to aid Vietnam’s reconstruction. It was noted that the only reconstruction aid sent to Vietnam from the U.S. has been from private citizens working through several non-profit organizations. The Peace Center is currently concerned with the two major activities: to pressure the incoming Carter Administration to cut the funds for the B-l bomber from this year’s budget before the February deadline, and to urge Carter to grant a universal unconditional amnesty to all Vietnam war resisters. The center’s task force on National Priorities and Peace Conversion is ofganizaing a demonstration on Saturday, January 22, at the Erie County Library in downtown Buffalo, under the slogan, “Libraries-not B-l’s.” Library hours and staff have been cut down due to the County’s economic crisis. Similiar protests against the B-l bomber are expected in over 80 cities across the nation that day. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski came out against the B-l bomber over a year ago saying that money should be spent on the needs of people in major urban areas rather than in bombers. Makowski recently levied an “occupancy tax” on all city residents to raise money to help pay the city’s debt and came under attack from city tax payers for it. A member of the Peace Center said that Makowski should pressure the Federal government to transfer money from the $92 billion B-l bomber program to states and cities in financial need, including Buffalo, and abolish the occupancy new tax. Five hundred taxpayers filled City Hall’s Council chambers two weeks ago to protest the tax. Unconditional amnesty Dr. Edward Cuddy, coordinator of the Center’s Amnesty and Reconciliation Coalition reported that thousands of Amnesty postcards, picturing Fritz Efaw and disabled Vietnam veteran Ron Kovic, have been sent to Carter, and urged that a final push be made to swamp the white house with many. more. He said that fifteen religious leaders from Buffalo signed a letter to Carter calling for universal unconditional amnesty. The coalition estimates that there are 790,000 veterans with less than honorable discharges and 40,000 to 93,000 deserters in need of such an amnesty. The Peace Center’s task force on Hunger concentrated its activity in the Central Park neighborhood, where the Peace Center is located, and organized a food-stamp clinic and a free breakfast program in school for neighborhood children. Twenty-two parents volunteered to help with the breakfast program after notes were sent home with the children, and 61 people signed up for food stamps the first day the clinic was open. Educational material about hunger in underdeveloped countries has been distributed. Doctors are at work in Bach Mai Hospital in, Hanoi. Vietnam's largest medical facility, Bach Mai was nearly destroyed by over 100 American B-52 bombers on December 19 and 22, 1972, at the direction of the Nixon Administration. The United Farmworkers Support Committee concentrated on picketing Bell’s supermarket to protest their sale of non-union lettuce. The committee has spoken before the Buffalo AFL-CIO Labor Council, and has received monetary support from various unions, including the United Auto Workers. The Peace Center operates on a $12,000 a year budget, and receives nearly half from its membership. The rest is made up from project grants from Clergy and Laity Concerned, with whom the Peace Center has affiliated, the United Chuarch of Christ, the United Methodist Church, the Presbytery, and the Riverside-Salem United Church of Christ. The Peace Center is discussing participation in the Clergy and Laity’s “Campaign Against the Dirtiest Dozen Dictatorships” by working to end all U.S. military aid and arms sales to these countries, and to expose the role of Americn corporations overseas. The countries selected are South Korea, Chile, South Africa (including Nambia), the Philippines, Indonesia, Brazil, Iran, Argentina, Haita, Zimbabwe (Rhodesia), Uruguay and Thailand. The Peace Center has set a goal of 300 members in 1977, and is located at the Leroy Community Center, 307 Leroy Avenue, Buffalo, 14214, NT. (838-6740). Hai/e Lunch With Us!

Angered Buffalonians Repeal city s occupancy tax In the most militant display of public anger since last summer’s county budget-cot meeting in the downtown library, more than 500 Buffalonians crowded Buffalo’s Common Council Chambers demanding repeal of the city’s occupancy tax. The tax was recently passed by the Council to provide funds for a million dollar debt left the city by the Municipal Housing Authority. Decreasing state aid is responsible for what will become an ever-widening yearly Housing Authority deficit. The meeting in City Hall was to be a session where Common Council members and Mayor Stanley Makowski would explain the reasons for the tax which varies between eight and twelve dollars per home, and to listen to citizen input. That input turned out to be ten minutes of catcalls and jeering at every point the mayor would attempt to speak. Makowski finally left the chambers, unable to communicate to the crowd beyond the question, “Is this the American way?” Ten of the fourteen Common Council members signed resolutions to repeal the unpopular measure, and on January 11, the Council voted unanimously to eliminate the tax with the end of this fiscal year. The Off-Campus Housing Office, located in 342 Norton Union, is currently open and providing limited services. Full service, which includes computer assistance in searching for housing, will begin in March. The office presently maintains a bulletin board (located in front of 342 Nortion) on which people offering or desiring housing can post ads. Ads may also be phoned in between 10 and 11 a.m. weekdays and between 4 and 5 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. The bulletin board already contains requests and ads for houses, apartments, single rooms and roommates. Off-Campus Housing services will expand in March, when the Unfinished homework The Buffalo Board of Education plans to appeal annual rush for student housing usually begins. Assistance will be geared toward those seeking housing for thy next school year. Forms will be provided on which a student can indicate what type of housing he has in mind. The form is them submitted to the Office. Within two days the student receives a printout of up to ten houses or apartments matching the description. The student can then look up information concerning particular houses in the master housing file at the Office. This file is being assembled from information obtained by surveying current residents of student housing. The file will contain pertinent information such as general condition, size, distance from campus, rent and utility prices. Off-Campus Housing Director Heidi Lewish said that the Office may also offer a roommate finding service and expand it's scope to include houses with monthly leases, but only if the staff can resume its normal services by March. Lewis explained that the Office is getting off to a late start this year because Sub-Board did not appoint a director until October.

The three-member panel mediated the Buffalo Teachers Federation (BTF) three-week strike in September, after months of fruitless bargaining. Original issues in the strike were that of pay, with 11 percent and ‘increments’ over two years as the, teachers’ final demand, and program cuts, where the BTF demanded the restoration of all cut curricula, and the job positions needed to teach them. According to arbitration panel briefs, its judgment was based on the Buffalo receipt of more than five million-dollars (approximately 11 percent deducted as a fine of an average teacher’s Salary) for the illegal September strike. Under the state’s Taylor Law, public employees are forbidden to strike, and penalized one day’s pay for each day on strike, claiming inability to pay.

His group will not only learn about alternate energy sources, but will actually build devices such as wind mills and solar panels. Once the devices have been built, the class plans to tranpsort and display them throughout the city in an effort to increase public awareness and interest in energy alternatives. NYP1RG will also study three main facets of this state’s energy situation: the decommissioning (shut down) of nuclear power plants (cost analysis, possible complications); and co-generation of industrial energy (recycling waste heat and waste steam); and a change in the present utility rate system, which encourages waste by billing large, industrial users at lower rates than residential users.

The Spectrum stands by its Friday editorial. We still believe Spiegel acted responsibly in turning down the requests for cash, that his beating was deplorable, and that the responsible parties should be prosecuted. These were the most important points made. But this time we feel it is also necessary to warn against using this incident as an excuse for a hardnosed position on the needs of minority students on this campus, who are still subject to pressures and injustices white students never face. The strength of the feelings of the students in BSD and PODER is an indication of how far we must go before black, hispanic and white students come to an understanding that each group can live with.

Monday, 24 January 1977 of present government personnel. Let’s, come down another 20 years. In 1973 Nixon there was a surly, under-tone to the Washington festival. Anti-war protestors staged a counter-inaugural. People thought Nixon might make -ome big announcement. Everything was the ready. The Roost-No-More Co. had gone down them to keep spraying Avenue on the trees plane starlings off. There was no spray for dissidents. For no good reason I found myself up in a radio perch under the ceiling of the Capitol, in a small closet on stilts holding four people; I was supposed to feed lines to the commentator. 1 had never looked down on a crowd before and seen it as the president did, stretching out by the acre and resembling the design underside of a tapestry. You wondered what George governor Alabama’s was on the other side. Wallace was wheeled in, just below, and the Agnews and Nixons greeted him warmly. That was four years ago; some flags still at half mast for Truman and a bitter wind, after the rain, that vibrated the poles. A faint throb of anti-war chants came up as Nixon talked. One mocking Henry home-made sign said ‘“Peace is at Hand’ Kissinger, October 26, 1972” in reference, of course, to his comment just before the election. Richard Nixon is represented at this 1977 inaugural, too, by indirection though not in person. He appointed four members of the present Supreme Court and through them he still influences affairs. He picked four like-minded conservatives, “strict remarkedly constructionists,” he called them. “I am proud of the appointments I have made to the courts; he said in his 1972 acceptance speech, “particularly to the Supreme Court. We must strengthen the peace forces against the criminal forces in America.” “Peace forces” was a code name for conservatives, to undo the work of the liberal Warren court. The Seante rejected two Nixon appointees, of course, Haynsworth and Carswell. The present bitter confirmation controversy over Griffin Bell_, recalls his support of school segregationist Carswell and brings back the Nixon echo. Just last week four able and high-minded Nixon justices lined up again in a matter split decision. It was a procedural (supplemental to the main issue) in a zoning case with racial impact. Along with Potter Stewart (an Eisenhower appointee) the Nixon justices carried the That was a joyous but . vindictive triumph. Suspicion of outgoing Democrats ran so high that incoming treasury secretary Humphrey’s first order of business was to count the gold at Fort Knox. There was a protocal flap when Ike wouldn’t go past the White House portico to make his ceremonial call on Truman. Job holders quaked. Fear of the spoilsman was so intense that stores bought full-page advertisements in Washington newspapers reassuring government workers that their credit was still good. Buy now and makp no payment till March, one pleaded: “We’re not worried, why should you be?” A clothing ad said, “Bond’s has restoration. For Ganiz , for students To the Editor. A sad situation has arisen at the' State University of New York at Buffalo’s Speech Communication Department, where a most talented, enthusiastic instructor may lose his appointment due to a personality conflict with the department chairman. Dr. Walter Gantz, an assistant professor at this University is currently in the second year of a two year appointment. His status is currently “up in the air” because, while faculty members voted Gantz, Department to retain Dr. Chairman Dr. Molefei Asante wants to terminate his appointment. As many students are aware, last year a major “crisis” began in Speech Communication department between Dr. Asante and some faculty members within that department. The “crisis” has apparently carried over to this year, leaving the department with two factions: one “pro Asante,” the other “anti Asante.” It takes little in the way of deductive reasoning to figure out that Dr. Gantz has not been one of Dr. Asante’s staunchest supporters. But this personality clash should not be allowed to affect the students of this University in any way, as it is. Having taken many courses - day. Every presidential inaugural has its own mood under the bands and gaiety, and the one today, 1 think, is uncertainty. It is wonderful to be rid of Watergate and Vietnam and Jerry Ford helped us to do that. But what about the man we lected? His selection of Bell has raised a row with the Blacks, and his skimpy plans for stimulating the economy have upset organized labor. Liberal economist Walter Heller in the Senate testimony last week rather scornfully referred to Carter proposals as “being ‘realistic’ and ‘pragmatic’ to the point of being downright modest.” The United States is not out of the woods yet. Our allies are counting on American recovery to lift them from the slump. Yet we are further from our high-employment goals now than a year ago; the operating rates, of manufacturing are barely above a year ago, and the industrial production is limping along at rates no higher than those it first reached three years ago. Senators Humphrey and Javits have introduced a $2 billion bill for programs to reduce youth unemployment. Almost certainly the Democratic Congress will demand greater Federal effort . . . The crowd hushes, the black-robed chief justice steps forward, and Jimmy Carter takes the oath. Does that end anything? No, it is just the start. in the Speech Communication department, 1 feel that I am qualified to be a judge of instructors and their capability of teaching college-level courses. I can also safely state that Dr. Gantz is one of the finest teachers I have had while under these circumstances. I believe that I am speaking on behalf of a great many students in expressing feelings of disgust for the manner in which this situation is being handled. From a student’s point of view, I don’t care how many teachers get along with one another, or who speaks to whom. Rather, 1 am concerned with finding an instructor who is capable of dealing with subject matter in a clear, presentable, manner. Dr. Gantz is such an individual, and is more qualified to be lecturing in a classroom than are some of his colleagues in the department. In addition to fulfilling his academic role, Dr. Gantz is also readily available to students who wish to discuss problems, situations and crises, that are unrelated to academics. If Dr. Asante forces Dr. Gantz to leave this University, it will be the students of SUNY/Buffalo that lose. It is time to put aside petty, persona! differences, and look out for the well-being of the Buffalo student. Larry Amoros Dewey Hall, Amherst Campus �Free Dacajetveiah To the Editor. On December 29th, 1976 Governor Carey commuted Dacajeweiah’s (a/k/a John HillJ'' sentence. On January 17th, 1977, the New York State Board of Parole, for the first time in history, prevented the release of a prisoner whose sentence was commuted by the Governor. To continue making Dacajeweiah a scapegoat for the entire Attica incident is a blatent miscarriage of justice. We all can sadly remember the state troopers retaking of the prison in 1971 in which 43 men died, 80 wounded and the subsequent torture of inmates that occured for weeks after. Dacajeweiah needs out help, as his life has been threatened by the prison guards who hold him in custody. Write Governor Carey to express your outrage at the parole board’s decision and demand Dacajeweiah’s immediate unconditional release! [State Capitol Building, Albany, N.Y. 12224] Let us show Governor Carey we have not forgotten about Attica and Dacajeweiah. Oliphant vs. Jimmy Carter: Round II Janet Silver Melodi Shapiro There is a difference To the Editor. A student recently told me about the following scene: While walking down a corridor another student (1 assume)approached and asked me, “What time is it?” Before I could uncover my , watch he said, “Have you been saved?” and began to lecture me on how to “find Jesus.” Another student recently told me of having visitors appear, unasked, at her door, who proceeded to enter and tty to convince her to “accept ‘Christ’ as her personal ‘lord’ and ‘savior.” I have observed a “minister” preaching at students during early evening hours in Norton while passing out “tracts” that explain the “true way to God” (while the students seek to be courteous, but obviously most are uneasy, bothered, or intensely dislike what they are hearing). This uneasiness is understandable because this approach is best described by the following quoted sentence, “We want to take students and make them, mold them into what we want them to be.” I have been told of being “accosted” at lunch time (which made it difficult to eat) for similar “saving” purposes, of a girl a guy was trying to convince that “god” had commissioned him to marry her, thus “save” her, and have myself been approached so that I could be properly “converted and saved.” A graduate student, who is a regular participant in our programs, said to me over the holidays, “1 can’t tell anyone I’m a part of a religious group because they immediately associate me with those groups which talk about ‘finding Jesus’ and ‘being saved’ all the time.” So, because of all I have heard and seen it is time to publicly state that all Christian organizations are not the same on this campus, that all Christian organizations do not “preach at” students, or seek to “convert” everyone, or demand that all students “find Jesus and be saved” in some narrowly defined method. Certainly the practitioners of that particular type of Christianity have found much meaning for their lives in such an approach, and that is their right. However, I want to say loud and clear Wesley Foundation is one Christian organization oh this campus that does not have that approach. (There are others, too.) Our approach is to seek to care about you as a person with worth, beauty, tapped and untapped potentials —.you as who you are and as who you want to be. Wesley Foundation wants to serve you, challenge you, search to love you and be in loved by you; thus we seek to your sorrows short to love you and be loved by you; thus we seek to establish a sense of community striving to be in searching loving service to, with and for persons for a life style that builds bridges instead of walls, that enables love and peace instead of apathy and war. Therefore we say, “You Have A Friend!” at Wesley Foundation. We cannot succeed in all cases, but we invite you to join with us in any of our programs or events (for information call 634-7129). And remember, not all Christian organizations have the same approach or theology. At Wesley Foundation it is never demanded that you measure up to some ideal concept before you can participate in what we do. Come as you are so we can journey — — — together.

Outing Club will meet to discuss trips Tuesday night at 8 pm rm 332 Norton All are welcome Iranian student groups are most active in politics in U.S. by Russ Smith Special to The Spectrum Even the Shah himself would probably (CPS) admit that he was a bit glib on Mike Wallace’s 60 Minutes a few weeks back, acknowledging that agents of his secret police SAVAK “are checking on anybody who becomes affiliated with circles and organizations hostile to my country.” The Shah must also realize that SAVAK has its work cut our for them if they intend to snuff out the growing insurgency of Iranian dissidents in the United States. The past two years have seen the rise of the Iranian Students Association (ISA) on campuses from coast to coast, making it the most active student political group in the United States. Recent disclosures liking the CIA with illegal SAVAK activities, as well as with Chile’s DINA and South Korea’s KCIA, have helped gain American support for the ISA. On November 3, the headquarters of the World Confederation of Iranian Students (C1SNU) in Paris was raided by French police and all inside were arrested. Several were immediately deported and two werg charged with the shooting of an Irainian diplomat, also an alleged SAVAK agent. Following the shoot-out, a French group called the International Brigade of Reza Rezai claimed responsibility for the incident, thereby disassociating itself with the C1SNU. But the charges against the students stuck and now they are waiting possible execution at the hands of SAVAK. - Big stink In Houston, on November 9, more than 90 Iranian students were reportedly attacked, beaten and arrested by a combination of FBI, SAVAK and Houston policemen while legally protesting the French deportment of the Iranian students in Paris. At San Jose State University in California there’s been a big stink over a controversial radio an Iranian student show programmed by the Shah’s sympathetic to government. The show has the San Jose ISA who say it is been derided by “extending the Shah’s regime through racist skits, decadent music, and pro-regime announcements that arrive directly from the regime's network.” The DJ, who now tapes the program guarded by campus police, has been identified as 3 SAVAK agent by the ISA. ISA members stress that patriots back in Iran have the hardest struggle to endure. “The Shah doesn’t know what to do with activists at home. The worst pressure is among those in Iran. Students are badly tortured in acid baths, they have fingernails pulled out and so on,” commented an Iranian from the University of Oregon ISA. Despite the reports that Iranian dissidents at U.S. colleges are being spied upon and harrassed. officials in Washington aren’t exactly trying to protect them. “It’s not correct that Iranian intelligenct personnel are checking on individuals living in the United Stales or keeping them under surveilance,” huffed Henry Kissinger at a press conference last month And college administrators don't seem much better. A high ranking admissions officer at the University of Colorado in Boulder takes Iranian students aside and warns them of the consequences of being involved in the Iranian studemt movement.

When the American Revolution began, Quebec was beseiged and Montreal occupied by American troops, laying the groundwork for American financial investments at a much later date. Leo Bergeran, author of The ( History of Quebec currently the text of a course called “Literature and Society in Quebec,” divides into rule three by Quebec regimes: the French regime, the Fnglish regime, which began , about 1760, and the American regime, which began around the end of the 19th century.) Upon the end of the war, Loyalists fleeing from the U.S. settled in Quebec, west of the Ottawa River, in what eventually became the Province of Ontario. This was the beginning of the geographical dichotomy in Canada between English and basic French. FLQ when years ago, Six a French-speaking Canadian, upon being asked his nationality, replied, “Je suis quebecois,” his words, similarly uttered by many literary and political figures in Quebec, were taken up by radical leftists. In October 1970, members of a group known as the Front de Liberation du Quebec (FLQ) kidnapped British diplomat James Richard Cross from his home in Montreal. Their terms for his freedom included the liberation of 23 and political prisoners provisions for their transport to and Algeria, Cuba or the publication of the FLQ Manifesto in every newspaper, in the Province.

Program for children with special problems The Jewish Center of Greater Buffalo has initiated a new recreation program for children with special needs (physically, emotionally and mentally handicapped. The program features one volunteer for every two children and is designed for exceptional children, ages 5-12 years old. The program consists of active games, swimming, crafts and Holiday celebrations. The program, which will run for twelve weeks, meets Tuesdays from 4:00 6:00 p.m. at the Amherst Building, 2600 North Forest Road. The program will begin on January 11. The Center has appointed Ira Landsman, a second year medical student at SUNYAB, to lead the group. Landsman began working with handicapped children when he was sixteen years old, and has seven years of experience working with handicapped children and youth. This new program, together with programs such as swimming for the handicapped and “Chaverim,” (a Big Brother-type program which allows children, usually from one-parent families, to share thoughts and feelings with a responsible youth or young adult on a regular basis) helps the Jewish Center meet the special needs of children. Programs are available to Center members only.

INCLUDES OVER 50 PHOTOS. Be sure to see Oino De Laurentlis’ KING KONG, a Paramount Release, at a theater Buffalo women’s basketball coach Liz Cousins had some good news and some bad news after her team’s home opener against Ithaca Friday night. First the good news. The Bulls played well during the first half, often trading the lead with the Bombers, and trailed by only four points at the half. Now the bad news. After guards Clyde O’Malley and Regina Frazier got into foul trouble, the Bulls panicked and lost control. The worst news of all was the final score Bombers 72, Bulls 52. The Bulls, led by freshman forward Paula Hills, who finished the half with eight points, kept pace with the Bombers throughout the first half. Neither team led by more than a basket until Ithaca made two quick buckets after Bomber steals with about five minutes remaining. The Bulls got a little sloppy then, and let Ithaca take a four point lead at halftime, 31—27. With both starting guards in foul trouble, Cousins sent in freshmen Anna Eng and Marilyn Brown to replace them in the second half. The Bombers soon took advantage of the inexperienced line-up by building up an eight point lead in the opening minutes. After that, the Bulls played like a basketball version of the original Mets, especially when it came to passing. Time and time again, Buffalo would bring the ball down court only to lose it because of an errant pass. During one period lasting one minute and 34 seconds, the Bulls turned the ball over eight times. “We lost the game on passing,” commented Cousins. The Ithaca scorers had a field day with all those turnovers. Sophomore center Cindy Pfalzer piled up 14 points, while her teammate, forward Lisa Boyer — m ir r IN “™« ACK < all 1976Dtno De Lau'entus Corporation rights reserved MiOCKET BOOKS Optimistism abounds But there were some bright spots in the game. “The attitude is great,” commented O’Malley. “This team did not give up,” Fislar agreed, “everybody hustles on this team.” The lopsided loss gave some of the new players a chance to show their stuff. Forward Gabi Bray tied O’Malley for second place in the Buffalo scoring with eight points, and Brown looked impressive with her quick offensive play, and hustling defense. Although the lineup is pretty much set, it can always change, said Cousins. There is a “healthy competition” going on between the players for the starting spots, and “. . there are two or three players who caiv move into the starting lineup at any time,” Cousins said. This loss gives the Bulls a 0-2 record, after a loss to Niagara before the vacation. Their next game is tomorrow at Fredonia. Cousins plans to work on passing and offense in practice until then. “We have to have more offense,” concluded O’Malley. “Passing gave away a lot of the game.” . Intramurals “This has been a very successful year,” claimed Bill Monkarsh, Director of Recreation and Intramurals. “There’s been an increase in everything we’ve done.” , The highlight of every winter’s intramural program is basketball. There are currently 102 teams competing at three different locations (Clark Hall, the Bubble and Sweet Home Central High School) in numerous different leagues. For the first time this year, there are also two divisions, one for the stronger teams (the A division), and one for the weaker teams (the B division). Last semester, teams in both divisions played a five-game schedule. This semester, the strongest of the teams in the B division will be moved up to the stronger A division, while the weaker A teams have been dropped down to B, in an effort to make the leagues more competitive and more enjoyable for the participants. The teams will play another five game schedule this semester, and then separate playoffs in both the A and B divisions will begin. More! Other events coming up on the intramural agenda include co-ed basketball (probably beginning in the last two weeks of February), co-ed volleyball Title IX... (possibly beginning in a week or two), and a one-on-one basketball tournament, for both men and women. Check the Backpage of The Spectrum for specific dates for all events. There is also a very successful hockey league with ‘36 teams, sponsored by the intramural department. The league plays its games at the Tonawanda Sports Center (where the varsity hockey team plays), and playoffs will be coming up soon. Monkarsh also announced the recreation hours for this semester at both the Bubble and at Clark Hall. On weekdays, the Bubble will be open from 5-10:30 p.m., with Mondays and Fridays reserved for tennis. On Saturdays and Sundays, the Bubble will operate from 1-8 p.m., with tennis from 4:30 until closing on Saturdays. People may also use the weightlifting machines and track whenever the facility is open. Reservations the Bubble for tennis at (636-2393) must be made no later than 5 p.m, two days before the day you want to play. The same policy is in effect for handball and squash reservations at Clark Hall (831-2926). Clark Hall will be open from 3:30-10:30 p.m. on weekdays, but you should check in advance to see if a special event ha? curtailed the recreation hours. —continued from page 4— institution does not wish to be associated with “efforts that are not positive in [NCAA’s] approach to affirmative action.” Mercy College in New York added its name to the list of “objectors” and protested the NCAA action to Fuzak. While the NCAA is crying foul, some of its charges are making noticeable attempts to comply with Title IX regulations. In fact, men as well as women are benefitting from the law at West Virginia University. As a result of the University’s evaluation, the shcool found several areas where treatment needs to be equalized for men. Men will now be encouraged to study family resources and nursing, the women’s lounge is slated to be remodeled so that men can also use it while maintaining separate restrooms, and the University plans to end the preference it gives women when scheduling recreation-intramural games and practices. near you. 80796/Sl 75 led the scoring with 19. Hills finished high for Buffalo with 13. This was Buffalo’s second game of the season, and the players felt that inexperience played a large part in the passing problems. “We are still feeling each other out, and giving balls away as a result,” said co-captain O’Malley. “We have to learn to relax more on the court.” Forward Bab Fislar pointed out that there were only three seniors on the team, adding, “We played well, but we’re inexperienced.” According to Cousins, passing isn’t the only thing the Bulls will have to work on. “We didn’t run the ball,” she said. “If we had been able to run on Ithaca, we would have won.” She also said that the game was lost on Buffalo’s weaknesses, rather than Ithaca’s strengths. Double standard Siena College in New York, a small private school of about 2000 students, reviewed the 27—page Title IX law and as a result, the Women’s Athletic Department has requested an additional $5000 to supplement its existing $5750 budget. All equipment is officially intended for both men and But at the University of Western Washington, all is not completely well and equal. The athletic director for women has expressed her doubts about the equity of the women's athletic programs. While budgeting and facilities have the improved, coaching situation remains unbalanced. There is only one full-time woman faculty coach for women’s tennis and basketball. And there are six varsity intercollegiate sports offered to women and nine to men. So, Title IX does not go unnoticed. Headlining a recent article in the University of Utah’s daily paper. Title IX was proclaimed to have had “not much impact on the University.” But then explain the four 4> Title IX subcommittees of staff, faculty and students at Utah, the fact that men and women specifications have been dropped from course catalog listings and the equalization of male and female faculty that compose the Physical Education Department.

Page thirteen �Injuries cause a nightmare season by Paige Miller Sports Editor Swimming team New wins spur optimism Despite a 2—3 start and some ailing swimmers, coach Bill Sanford has plenty to be happy about. With a strong, versatile team that can fill any gaps left by absent swimmers, Sanford expects their record to improve. “I guarantee that we’ll have a winning season,” he predicted. The Bulls picked up two quick wins last week against Canisius and Ithaca. The Griffins posed no threat to Buffalo as they managed to win only two races and scored only 29 points in the meet. The meet against the Bombers last Tuesday at Ithaca was a little closer, but the Bulls still prevailed, As Buffalo’s Ed Johnson stepped to the freethrow line with three seconds left in Saturday night’s game, teammates George Cooper and Lloyd DeVaux shook each other’s hands with a grin. That was because it no longer mattered whether Johnson made the freethrows Buffalo had already clinched a 78-74 victory over Geneseo. It was only Buffalo’s second win of the year, and it had been eleven games since their last win, so the Bulls were understandably happy. “It’s been a long time,” said coach Leo Richardson. “For a while I wondered if we were going to make it.” But Buffalo can’t remain too happy, because tonight they take on Syracuse at the Memorial Auditorium at 6:30 p.m. (Student tickets are 68-45. on sale at the Clark Hall ticket office.) The Orangemen were recently Sanford was especially happy ranked 20th in the nation by the Associated Press and own a 14-2 about these meets because they record, so Buffalo, after having struggled to beat Geneseo, definitely were won without the aid of George Finelli, has a rough road ahead. Tuesday night, Buffalo faces another tough co-captain top butterflyer, who is Buffalo’s at 8:15 p.m. team, Wisconsin-Milwaukee, at Clark Hall out with the flu. “We miss him a lot,” he commented. “He’s a Local star valuable man on the team.” Former Buffalo high school star Jimmy (Bug) Williams leads Finelli is still a question mark for Brockport, Syracuse with a 14.2 average. Williams, one of the quickest guards in Wednesday’s meet at wants him there for and Sanford Bulls last as did year, defense the country made a mockery of the more than his swimming abilities. forward Marty Burns, averaging 11.3 points per game. The Orangemen “His name is going to throw a like to run, and that was just one of the things which Geneseo was able little fear into his opponents,” he said. to capitalize on Saturday night. The Knights also found out how to neutralize Buffalo’s overall hustle. Only DeVaux was hustling during the first Freshman sets record height advantage Sanford sent in freshman Jim half, and the Knights, aided by some hot outside shooting, took a Brenner to replace Finelli at 41-35 halftime lead. Ithaca, and the freestyler shocked Richardson told the Bulls at halftime to start and to “go out there everyone by setting a new pool are do the job.” The result was immediately obvious. “We did a much record in the 200 yard butterfly. better job in terms of hustling,’ the Bulls coach noted, referring to the Brenner has broken four records so far this year, and according to second half. Sanford, could break more if he was put in other events. Reserves come through r Brenner isn’t, the only merman The Bulls also received strong performances from the bench for who can swim a variety of faces. the first time in quite some time. With reserve forwards DeVaux and Freshman Jim Harding, who Mike Jones hitting the boards hard, the Bulls got many second shots, and when Jones tipped in an offensive rebound with 4’56 remaining, Buffalo had its first lead of the night, 68-67. Center Pat Moriarty put the Geneseo back on top by one, but Johnson, who led all scorers with 20 points, cameNight back with a short jumper, and Buffalo again led. Jones tipped in another rebound, and Buffalo had a three point lead. Geneseo forward Kevin Westfall missed two freethrows with 2:45 left, and George Copper then iced the win for Buffalo with a ten-foot jumpshot. All that remained was for Buffalo to hang on to the ball, and make their freethrows, which they were able to do. GENESEO — — their championship in the SUNY Centers and make a better the Big Four.

It’s a symbol for life Analysis In the final analysis, it was Geneseo’s shooting, both from the floor and from the freethrow line, which failed them and sent them down to defeat, while the difference for Buffalo was simply hustle. “In the second half, we moved like we were supposed to do,” Richardson said. Both DeVaux and Jones had their finest games of the year. DeVaux, a junior from Niagara Falls, scored nine points, led everyone with ten rebounds, and added two steals, two assists, and two blocked shots. Jones, a senior from Akron, scored ten points and was second only to DeVaux with nine rebounds. Johnson had his fourth 20 point game in the last five outings, and the Bulls outrebounded the Knights, * 57-34. However, with Syracuse scheduled for tonight, the Bulls can’t afford to relax as they did in the first half against Geneseo. “We have the better talent,’’ Richardson said, “but I’ll be honest, they [Geneseo] outplayed us.” Tonight, Syracuse will have the better talent, so Buffalo will have to be hustling right from the start.

Of SUNY’s 65 institutions, only this University and three others are not slated for cuts. SUNY at Buffalo, Old Westbury, Utica-Rome and Purchase were classified as “emerging colleges,” and granted modest increases to facilitate opening new buildings. This University’s $1.4 million increase will finance departmental moves to the Amherst Campus, purchase of equipment, and rennovation of Main Street Campus buildings for use by the Medical School. Four new faculty lines- were also recommended. . Other SUNY institutions face cutbacks of as much as $1.6 million in Carey’s proposal. The Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) is also slated for severe cutbacks. Tax relief There is no recommendation for a tuition or room rent increase for undergraduates. However, an increase from $2,200 to $3,000 tuition was urged for SUNY’s Medical and Dental School tuition charge. The SUNY cutbacks are part of Carey’s plans to reduce state spending enough to allow an income tax reduction for New York State residents. If accepted by the Legislature, his budget would save each taxpayer more than a lot in order to get elected.” for the sake revenue sharing monies are also necessary to* facilitate the cuts. This tax break for New York was originally urged in Carey’s State of the State address earlier this month. The Governor declared that taxes have “built a wall” around New York, and urged the first reduction ever in state income taxes. ' Fiscal austerity Carey stated in his budget presentation that SUNY’s cutbacks were formulated “in the context of acute fiscal austerity.” He cited stabilized enrollment levels for the system as opposed to increases of recent years. If enacted, his cutbacks will increase the faculty-student ratio for SUNY overall from 16.7:1 to 16.8:1. Although the budget contains no proposal for an undergraduate tuition increase. Student Association of the State University (SUNY) Vice President for Campus Affairs Andy Hugos asserted that the budget contains a “hidden tuition increase” embodied in the TAP reductions. Students presently receiving the maximum TAP entitlement will suffer a $100 reduction in their awards, and students receiving less thah the maximum will lose on a proprotional level. In all, the TAP program is slated for a $42 million cut. Regressive Hugos labeled Carey’s TAP cutback “regressive,” since those students who most need the assistance will suffer the highest cutback. He further charged that most of SUNY’s overall increase of S24 million will be needed for “debt service” payments, and only about S2 million will be available for cost increases, due to inflation, while S17 million is needed, he said. According to SASU, Buffalo is slated for numerous staff line reductioris, despite the additional four faculty lines. The reductions will include 18 maintanence positions, 12 student service positions, and five faculty support positions. Many of these lines are already vacant, Hugos said. Carey had promised SASU representatives during his 1974 campaign that public higher education would be a high priority in his administration. Last year, his budget necessitated a SUNY tuition increase, and student demonstrations flared across,the state. Concerning Carey’s performance in office and treatment of the State University, Hugos concluded, “he promised alot in order to get elected,” SA officer assaulted Students may be expelled An expulsion hearing begun Wednesday night continued yesterday afternoon for three students accused of beating Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel and a secretary last month in the SA offices. The three students arrested John Tribble. 22; were George Thomas, 24; and John Lott, 34 — — arrested and charged with two counts of second degree assault each. They were released on bail. Additionally, the three were suspended from the University campuses pending the outcome of the expulsion hearing. Tribble and Lott are members of the Black Student*Union (BSU). Thomas was reported to be a member of the Third World Veteran's Association. According to the charges filed against them, Tribble and Lott had requested a $30 cash advance for decorations for a Christmas party that evening. Thomas reportedly was requesting a $997 cash advance for a trip. Spiegel turned down the request. The office secretary, Mary Palisano, 47, was reportedly beaten when she attempted to come to Spiegel’s aid. Spiegel was hospitalized with a scratched cornea, eye hemmorhage, black eyes, bruises and cuts about the face, neck, back, arms and legs, damage to his back and the bones in his' nose and chest. Spiegel also received three stitches above one eye and was reportedly sick from the beating for weeks after. Palisano was treated for contusions and a broken nose. She was released the same day. Relations between SA and BSU had been tense during the week before the attack. The SA Financial Assembly refused a request by the BSU to have funds released to pay the bill for buses to the boycotted Norman Connors concert. BSU members had also been angered at the same meeting when an audit of their club was announced, SA officers complained of verbal and physical intimidation following the meeting. Student use of tie-line to end Aides to Jimmy Carter have announced the President-elect's intention to name State University (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest L. Boyer as U.S. Commissioner of Education. Boyer is a native of Datona, Oklahoma, and received his doctorate at the University of Southern California. In a memorandum dated December 13,- student organizations at this University were informed that their tie-line service will terminate “early in 1977,” due to a “review of telephone service to the University community.” Tieline service allows access to unlimited state-wide long distance calling at a low monthly fee. Most organizations did not receive this notification until well into the semester break. Originating from the office of Assistant to the Vice President and Controller William H. Baumer, the memo informed student organizations that though access to the existing University tie-lines will be terminated, separate tie-lines will be made available for purchase “specifically for and restricted to their telephones.” Though unclear as to how costs to users could be distributed, one figure mentioned for payment would amount to S480 per month, in contrast to the average S30 to S50 currently paid. Outraged Baumer and his immediate superior. Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty, were both unavailable for comment Wednesday. The attitude oi most student organizations questioned at this time seemed to be one of “wait and see," with little apprehension as to end results. Representatives from the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and the Jewish Student Union were outraged. however “We make more than twnety calls, a day across the state that are absolutely essential to our functioning. We’re a statewide organization, we have to communicate,” stated NYPIRG director Paul Magiotto. Citing ambiguous wording in the memorandum and other difficulties. Student Association (SA) President Steven Schwartz announced that a meeting between Baumer and the “student organizations who will be most affected” is planned for next week. Schwartz also hinted at possible SA “actions,” should satisfactory or inequitable results not be achieved at this meeting. �Using advertising Military jobs: an alternative by Helaine Lasky Special to The Spectrum The Army has joined the ranks of the (CPS) advertising world in an effort to attract young enlistees.

The Center for Policy Studies and the School of Management will be offering a Research Seminar sponsored by the Rand Visiting Professorship: URBAN ANALYSIS AND POLICY John Tepper Marlin, Executive Director of the Council on Municipal Performance (COMP) will serve as the Rand Visiting Professor in Urban Studies during the Spring semester. Integrating themes will include budget, citizen participation, and intergovernmental relations. The seminar is designed to acquaint students with the previous work and research methods of The Council on Municipal Performance, and to provide students with an opportunity to apply these methods in group research projects focused on specific aspects of the community environment and public services in the Buffalo Metropolitan area.

And like all competition, there is a price to pay. The Army has budgeted $16 million a year for the last two years to cover the cost of a radio and television campaign aimed at the 12—24 set. At the same time, the Marine Corps reportedly spent $8 million in its annual search for a “few good men” (there was no mention of any women) according to the publication Advertising Age. This was slightly less than what was spent last year to advertise “Preparation H”! promise Not everyone buying But while the Arijiy is selling its goods, not everyong is buying. In fact, one radio station in Devner turned down an ad for the Army last year. It was discovered that there was actually a waiting list of recruits and that the ad would have been a waste of money. “It was the biggest contract in our history,” said the radio salesman.

N.Y. Ayer has handled military advertising for about 20 years and television is one of its newest markets. In fact, the Army’s TV campaign is scheduled for lift-off sometime this month. An advertisement is marketed by the size of the audience it will reach. The price increases for each thousand who hear the commercial, a phenomenon known to the ad business as “cost per thousand.” Glynn says that the cost per thousand is roughly the same from coast to coast.

One store reacted by hiring a private investigative team to scrutinize us.” The upshot of the investigation was a charge by the store that the CALPIRG did not include quality among its criteria for selecting food markets. Though Gaylord Bourne sees “a definitely successful and increasing” number of PIRGs spreading across the nation, some branches seem barely to be breathing. At Southern Oregon State College, a student observer reports that “they’re very weak here in Ashland.” At the Unviersity of Oregon at Eugene, OSPIRG chairwomen Sharon Hill admits that her organization has “been in a coast this past year.” However, she believes that OSPIRG’s slide is partially due to the fact that numerous citizens’ groups are springing up around the state to take over the work that OSPIRG has started. The group has been eclipsed lately in the environmental field, though it was instrumental in halting construction of a nuclear power plant in Cape Kiwansa, Ore., and helped pass a bill which encouraged bottle recycling. OSPIRG is shifting its focus to civil rights, which includes alleged redlining in Portland, and health care. No quorum The. Minnesota Daily reports that MP1RG is having difficulty attracting its representatives to its meetings. “We have never had a quorum this year. I’ve never even seen five of the members,” the paper quotes One distraught member as saying. In Iowa, Kathy Carter, chairwoman of IPIRG, admits that her organization has had little if any effect on recent elections. However, she points to considerable success in preserving city parks and averting attempts by the Army Corps of Engineers at damming several nearby rivers and creeks. Her group’s greatest triumph, she continues, is that it has gained practical experience as well as the respect of the townspeople around her campus. “Once you’ve proven yourself at doing good in things that interest people,” she observes, “you build a good name.” IPIRG plans an anti-Army Corps of Engineers conference this March. The cost of PIRGs to the individual student runs from three to eight dollars per year, and supports the fu’l-time staff of lawyers, economists, and other professionals who give the groups a continuity in time that they would not have if they were run solely by students, who are prone to vacationing and graduating. PIRGs were envisioned by Nader as an answer to the dilemma that “power and wealth remain concentrated, and decisions continue to be made by the few.” D.C. manager Bourne thinks it is equally important that PIRGs are “great learning programs.” SENATE MEETING WEDNESDAY JANUARY 26 th 8 HAAS LOUNGE $ ig i 4:00 pm * Page four The Spectrum Friday, 21 January 1977 . .

Reiss Cam/nis Editor A recent series of articles appearing in the Long Island Press has rekindled the controversy surrounding lack of college places provided on Long Island for its students. The dispute "stems from the state’s decision to allocate S201 million to complete the Amherst Campus at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Buffalo in lieu of utilizing the resources to finish the two-thirds built main campus at Stony Brook. This decision has outraged many Long Island ■ officials close to the situation. The problem arose over the fact that there are a great surplus of college spaces in the Buffalo area wliile the Long Island region graduates far more high school students than the area can accomodate. Long Island, in fact, bound college breeds more students per sqare mile than any region in the nation. According to statistics released Education the State by Department, the Buffalo region provides 18 percent more college seats than the number of high school students it generates while Long Island shows a 25 percent deficit. In other words, for every 100 college bound students in the Buffalo area there are 118 spots yet the same 100 available students in Long Island have only 75 places. The Albany and Binghamton areas boast surpluses of 41 percent and 112 percent — respectively. Forced migration This has forced a great number of Long Island born students to venture upstate for their college education. The Press series said some 65,000 Long Island students now leave home for college because Long Island has the worst proportion of college places for its high school graduates of any area in the state. In contrast, upstate students have not shown a zealous desire to leave home in favor of Long Island. A special Stony Brook committee reported “This outmigration, if enormous continued, will profoundly sap the social and economic viability of Long Island because there is no corresponding influx of young people to study here.” Leo Koppelman, the executive director of the Nassau-Suffolk Regional Planning Board, has conducted considerable reserach of the situation. “If Stony Brook isn’t completed,” Koppelman said, “the problem of students being forced to leave Long Island to get a college education will greatly increase in the future. As the region grows the number of students will college bound increase. If the capacity on Long Island is curtailed, the existing problem will be exacerbated,” Queens Manes, Donald Borough President, felt the Long Island area had been shortchanged by the state. “There is no question,” he said, “the upstate area has received far better treatment when it comes to higher education than New York City and its suburbs. Stony Brook services a very large area with a great shortage of seats. It must be completed.” SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer denied allegations that the SUNY administration and the State University Board of Trustees had a purposeful attempt to slight the downstate area. “There made has been no intention of short changing Long Island,” he said. Anderson, R. Christian Chairman of the Stony Brook State Council, argued the University has embarked on a myopic endeavor by contructing a campus in Buffalo capable of serving 23,5000 students which in turn will freeze Stony Brook registration at 17,000. He felt that a 20,000 capacity would be sufficient for the needs of Buffalo. This reduction in size would then make considerable funds available for other schools. “Other units of the State University system need facilities equally desperately,” he said. Boyer indicated he would like to see each school receive its funds. “It is our intention,” Boyer said, “to see both Buffalo and Stony Brook complete. We have been caught in a terrible fiscal crisis. It necessitates scaling down some of the ambitious plans of the ’60s.” However, Boyer noted the decision was not absolutely final. “The last thing I want is to be rigid,” he claimed. “If case is made that in any way we misjudged the facts in the limits we have then if it is necessary we will change the policy. We’re still talking and very much interested a and willing to change.

The Spectrum Page five . �EditPrial A brutal attack The brutal attack on Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel, and the SA office secretary, is the culmination of years of intimidation and verbal threats by some members of the Black Student Union (BSU) against SA officers. The threats and intimidation have taken place in public view in past years at meetings of the Student Senate, where club budgets must be ratified. In 1974 and 1975 these meetings were disrupted by BSU members who insisted that black students here were being shortchanged because of racism on the part of the virtually all white SA. In 1976 there was a lull. But this year tensions between BSU and SA were renewed in the dispute over a UUAB minority concert line, and the ensuing minority boycott of UUAB events. At the Financial Assembly meeting of December 8th, representatives of the BSU once again resorted to threats of violence, this time as part of a request that SA release funds to pay the bill for the buses which carried protestors to the boycott of the Norman Connors concert. At that same meeting, BSU members were angered at the announcement that their club would be audited in the coming week, and asked why other clubs were not being subject to the same scrutiny. Treasurer Steve Blumberg explained that BSU had neglected to turn in receipts for cash advances, and that all other clubs would be audited sometime next semester. That evening, at least one member of the SA Executive Committee had to have University Police escort him off campus. The Student Senate meeting the following afternoon was attended by no less than eight University Police officers. It passed without incident. But one week later, according to the charges, two members of BSU, one an officer of its executive committee, and a member of the Third World Veteran's Association, went to the SA offices. The two men from BSU asked for a $30 cash advance for decorations for a Christmas party that evening. The spokesman for the Third World Veteran's asked for a $997 cash advance for a trip the next day. Spiegel refused, and was beaten. The office secretary tried to aid Spiegel, and she was beaten too. We believe Spiegel acted responsibly in turning down the requests for cash. We also hope the entire University will join us in denouncing this vicious attack, calling for the expulsion of those found guilty, and their fullest prosecution in the criminal courts. The assault on Spiegel, though, can only be seen as the natural outcome of years ofverbal and physical harrassment during the club budget process, in public and private sessions, and the perverse logic which justifies such tactics. This is the opportunity to end the harrassment of SA officers at financial hearings. It is also an excellent chance to condemn the long-tolerated intimidation as the forerunner of the violence which we saw last month. The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 46 Friday, 21 January Editor-in-Chief - Rich Korman Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor Once upon a time, at a school just like this, there was a college course called Deductive Logic, or PHI215 for short. He had lived in Hochstetter 107 for the last twelve semesters. He was a nice, little Course. He wasn’t required, he wasn’t big or popular, and the people that registered for him were always a bit odd. Yet he was respected as being something more than a “gut” by the other philosophy courses. But PHI215 was lonely. There were nevermore than 13 students in his class. None of the big time 300 and 400 level classes wanted to have anything to do with him, and the 100’s were always doing something babyish like closing out seniors or changing class times. PH 1215 didn’t get along that well with the other 200 levels either. There was PH1226 (The Philosophy of Lunacy) with whom PH1215 could never agree on anything. There was PHI232 (The Philosophy of Man) which was the gut of the Philosophy Department and was therefore to be avoided like the plague. Finally, there was PHI216 (Symbolic Logic). PHI2I6 was PHI215’s cousin, and they kept in contact, but not closely. One day, though, just about this time of year when the semester is beginning, PHI215 found out he had a new neighbor. His old neighbor and sole friend, PSY101 (General Psychology) had gone, and PH1215 was afraid that he would now become a total recluse. PHI215’s new neighbor turned out to be Introduction to Economics-Macro, ECO 181, for short, and the moment PH1215 gazed at- her beautiful syllabus and course description, he fell instantly and madly in love.'Never befbtiejjad he seen a course like ECO 181. Sure, many semesters ago, (Introduction and EC0182 to Economics-Micro) recitation rented out Hochstetter 111, but she wasn’t half the woman EC0181 was. P1I12I5 liked students a lot, but he liked ECOlSl’s students three times as much as he liked the average student. ECOlSl’s textbook made PH 121 5’s heart pound, and her professor reminded PHI215 of the kind retired department chairman who had created him so many years ago. Bui PH 1215 had trouble getting EC0181 to notice him. He was so small that EC018I didn’t even know he was there. But one Wednesday, PHI215’s teacher was absent, and so when EC0181 was dismissed, he charged into her room, Hochstetter 1 14, to say hello. “I’m PH1215. You’re new here, and I’d like to welcome you to Hochstetter Hall,” he said, “If there’s anything 1 can get you like chalk or erasers, don’t hesitate to ask. 1 live in Hochstetter 107.” “Thank you, I will,” replied ECO 181. But Just as PH 121 5 was about to compliment ECOlSl’s overhead projector. 350 pass-fail options fell off the desk and nearly smothered PH1215 ECOI8I chuckled, and said, “Hey, you are small aren’t you,” and turned away. PH1215 shook himself clear, and left Hochstetter 114, his face reddened and his pride smashed. How would he ever face her again? In just the few moments he had spent in her room, he knew instantly that he loved her more than he loved any other class that hg had ever seen. But how would he get her to notice him? Weeks passed, and PHI215’s feelings for EC0181 grew stronger. He’d rush out of class and fight the swell of her students jamming the exits just to get a glimpse of her, but she was always so busy, and he was still embarrassed after what happened at their first meeting. But one day, while PHI215 was in class working on modus tolens, he suddenly noticed that she was peeking into his room. He instantly rushed to the doorway to find out what she wanted. “I don’t have a slide projector, and I noticed that you have one that you’re not using. Can I borrow it? I’ll bring it back after class,” she said. Quick as a flash PHI215 grabbed the projector and handed it to ECQ181, assuring her it was no trouble at all. He couldn’t concentrate on the lecture for the rest of the hour, and when class ended', he counted the seconds until she arrived. Finally, after wwhat felt like a once-a-week three hour lecture, she poked her head inside. “Thanks for the projector, you really saved the class,” said ECO 1-81. PHI215 said it was nothing, and invited her over to the vending machines for coffee and an ice cream sandwich. She accepted and they had a grand time. They had a lot in common. She knew about logic because she had been located across from the department office. They deciced to have coffee together regularly after class. PH 1215 was so excited that he moved class outside, but dismissed it early to make sure he got back inside in time for his next rendevous. As time passed, ECO 181 grew to love PH 1215 as much as he loved her. They swap classes for tun. and use each other’s desks from time to time. Then one day, shortly before finals, 1*111215 told EC0181 that he wanted to talk to her before coffee. This was very unusual, and ECO 181 was puzzled. PH1215 explained, “How would you like to form a new course? We’ll call it PIII404 (that’s 215 *■ 181), “Economic Logic.” I’ve already asked the Philosophy Department people, and they’re very receptive* We’d be together in a mid-sized room on the first floor of O’Brian Hall on the North Campus. What do you say?” Well, as in all good love stories, ECO 181 said yes, and the following September, PH 1215 and FCOI81 packed their Venetian blinds and their computer class lists and hopped on a Bluebird bus to Amherst where they lived happily ever after. - - - The Spectrum is served by the College Press Service, Field Newspaper Syndicate, Los Angeles Times Syndicate, and New Republic Feature Syndicate.

The Spectrum . Friday, 21 January 1977 I Prodigal Sun �Patti Smith concert Punk rock in NYC for New Years Eve John Gale, Contributing Editor No doubt about it, punk rock (yeah, yeah, yeah) is the latest craze in the worm-ridden Apple. Fans (?) in droves rumored to be on the brink of hysteria, swarm like bees, to such honey-laced clubs as On the Rocks, Max's Kansas City, C.B.G.B.'s to hear bands with such missionary names as the Ramones, Talking Heads, Orchestra Luna, Blondie or Mink De Ville. Indeed, the punk rock experience is in a fervent stage and has gained a formidable reputation with most of the city's big banana rock critics, who have in turn passed it off as the last hope for band. Punk rock is on the verge of becoming the only pursued topic of conversation at Foxtrot staff parties. However, the Palladium show did more to provoke frustration that it did to bolster the sagging record sales of John Gale, or more thdn it did to make Tom Verlaine the next Patti Smith, who was the next Bruce Springsteen, who was the next Bob Dylan, who was the next Woody Guthrie, who was the first to get caught in the onslaught of hokum from hype country. Perhaps it was the power of the historic sight in which the stage was laid that caused the anxiety, the Palladium has a "Soon," "Elevation," "Marquee Moon," and a version of "Knocking On Heaven's Door," that gave Bob Dylan's song new colors and intimacies that blended the participating , audience into a giant undulating cranium. Of course, the grande finale was their underground classic (yes Virginia, there is an underground), Little Johnny Jewel, a self-marketed single, still available on the ORK label. Now Little Johnny Jewel He's so coo / He had no decisions Just trying to tell a vision. Hopefully, Television's cryptic style of punk art will catch on in the commercial avenues; either way, their debut album should be out sometime in February on ... existence and in its own curious way has helped to make or break a vast oasis of musical would be's and did become's. Unappreciated talent Television served up as first act bait, undoubtedly suffered the most from the monsterous promotiion to the large hall, which is cavernous in comparison to the . Rimbaud, Richards, Ronettes The stylish marquee of the hall on 14th Street and 3rd Avenue displayed a superficial refinish of an old vaudville and concert hall of great renown, the Academy of music, and promised a tour de Force of the musical and regional phenomena. The case of thousands encompossed new rock and rolled over high (ho ) priestess (hum) Patti Smith, a mystical nymphet with the coiffure and facial bone structure of Keith the poetical talents of a Richards, reincarnated Rimbaud (1845-1891) and the singing ability of the combined Ronettes in the midst of a gang war. Special guest attraction invited by Patti Smith was the group Television. This SoHo area band is led by guitarist and lead singer Tom Verlaine, who for those of you up on your punk rock mythology will recall, coauthored a small book of verse with Ms. now Smith entitled The Night considered a collector's item. Rounding out the bill was ex-Velvel Undergrounder — Prodigal Sun bars of their own home turf in derelictus plazatus (the bowerey). Although smaller than a bread box, C.B.G.B.'s serves as a warm sanctuary for Television; a place which will assure appreciation for their music. Unfortunately, the Palladium with its 3500 plus/minus 500 seats and filled with a diversified oversoul of dopers, dealers, and idol worshippers, couldn't reproduce the home-sweet-home effect which the bank needs to achieve maximum impact. But Television is a courageous band. They had to be in order to withstand the crowd of devout, pantswetting Patti Smith freakos, who never withheld their loudly voiced demands for their new Goddess. Television fooled everyone, they stood firm, ignoring the horendous accoustics and frenzied assholes, and performed an hour of the most attention deserving music to be played all night. Though perhaps showing a lack of discipline, their music displayed a curious poetic vision, set to kinetic guitar melodies befitting the early Velvets, aided by a clinical scene for production and their fistfull of songs, including "Torn Curtain," "Friction," inner character and New Year's with Patti Smith was a series events, each one outdoing the one that preceded it. First Patti urged two lewd, luded gin-soaked teenagers to dance topless onstage, then she invited sister/roadie Kimberly to dance the Watusi with her and told several ushers hanging around the front of the stage to fuck off and quit harrassing the kids! Or how about the sequence when Patti almost did a complete She didn't the ignore striptease? celebration of New Year's either. First, she told the audience that "It would be New Years when I goddamn say so!" but at the stroke of 12:00, Patti came through as she led the band through an amyl nitrate distortion of Auld Lange Syne. of Tribute to the cult John Cale came next, with a five piece band that looked unmistakenly British next to Television's sleazy Manhattan look, creating a satanic sound complete with bombastic heavy metal drones and volcanic drumming, so loud that you would have thought the percussionist question was using lead pipes in place of customary wooden drumsticks. In his short 45-minute set, Cale took the concept of. fear and hell one step farther than Alice Cooper ever dared as he traded off between guitar and piono, emitted a haunting fragrance that reeked of pessimism and remorse. His self-destructive vision was best exemplified in "I'm Leaving It To You" and "I Want To Die," with the latter song clarifying and propelling his ultimate theme in the vocal passage; "I Want To Die I want To Go To Hell." Personally, save his rendition of the Modern Lovers' classic "Pablo Picasso" this portion of the evening was an enfurance test to check the maximum decibel level a human could stand. Combine sheer volume with muddy accoustics and you get the feel of eating oatmeal while sitting in a Concorde, cruising down a runway. history of other names and a century-old Patti's background. Anyone for "Space Monkey"? — Electra Records. Well, perhaps this latest genre is justified, for it IS New York City's last chance for any sort of revitalization or definition among its tumultrous yet energy-depraved music scene. As it stands now, most of the city's clientelle can be seen running down, in New York's own flamboyant style of grand hoopla, to Asbury Park, where they will attend both Mad Dog Lopez's wedding and a Bruce Springsteen concert. Tsk, Tsk but alas, these weekly absences have made New York boring and have left the club owners and promoters screaming for valiums and miltowns. Besides, it's only rock and roll and I like it. reflect > by Dimitri Papadopoulos Self-Indulgence of passions After the lobotomy-rock of John Cale, the two-hour set by the Patti Smith group was as soothing as a post-coital cigarette, but sagged in an overload of perfunctuary nuances and questionable anarchiaical overtones. This is not to say that Patti didn't put on a good show, but rather that the problem was rooted in her choice of ignoring the quintessence of her poetic vision while relying on the self-indulgence in the originally seen of passions performing styles of Jim Morrison, Jimi Hendrix, and the Rolling Stones. The song-poem structure of her first album and her early "Piss Factory" performances were almost non-existent (or overwhelmed by theatrics) and replaced with a type of stoned rambling, evident in the acts of her three mentors when they had beomce disenchanted with their audiences. Was it high-speed processed senility or a bowl of opium smoked out of Harry Crosby's pipe? Why did she do the song "Horses" twice? In PattiS case, it was probably the opium. Patti also played a highly complex one-stnnged violin and Fender duosonic as she blitzkreiged her way through a trail of staples such as "Free Redondo Beach," Money," "Gloria," "Pissing in a River," a vascular "Break It Up," and an extreme "Radio Ethipia." Although an uncensored version of the song is available in France, she did not do her version of "Time is on my Side," nor did she do one of her unrecorded originals "We're Gonna Have A Real Good Time Together (We're Gonna Jump and Shout and Shoot Together)," both of which Smith returned onstage for the first oncore she was to give. But firrst she dropped a name. Blue Oyster Cult. It was a thank you to a band that usually plays the Palladium (then it was the Academy of Music, and how some will remember those bathrooms) on New Year's Eve. Respectfully, they romped through "Vera Gemini" from the esorteric Agents, of Fortune, leaving the chore of lead vocals up to drummer Jaydee Daughterey and limiting Patti Smith to a hauntingly beautiful vocal accompaniment. Playing the hits, the night cafne to a close with a rebellious, but chaotic "My Generation" which was beefed up by the presence of Didi Ramone on bass guitar and David Johansen of the New York Dolls on harmonica and vocals. And so I though it would come to an end, but then it It when happened. "My started Generation" didn't stop as the final cadence transcended its form and twisting and turning, became a whirl of hums, gathered and screeches. It beeps, momentun as Daughterey began to punch his cymbals; almost violent he then proceeded to stomp the rest of his kit. It ended after all the equipment had ben destroyed. Several days later, Patti tells me she can't believe that Ivan smashed his $650 Gibson. As the guitars lay wasted and the amps smoke, Patti stands center-stage, plucking final notes as she waits for the noise to clear. She weeps and falls to her knees, her guiar threatens her with electrical suicide, but she continues balling it. Finally Lenny Kaye grabs the axe away from her and delivers her to safety backstage. Dichotomous feelings I am critical of Patti Smith yet I love she is a her. She is an interesting figure poet, enveloped in the mysticism of her romances, she is the groupie who has orgasms at Stone's concerts, she is the intellectual who would sit all night and read Burroughs, she is the ballet dancer, she is the rock critic, then she is the poet again, scratching her crotch in admiration of Rimbaud. Most importantly, she is the rock and roll mutant, a hybrid of the most encompassing styles. Patti Smith has a good thing going, and you can bet she knows that. I love Patti Smith like I loved Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin, so I'll remain critical. When you find a good thing, it's hard to give it up. — So, perhaps the exploitation of punk rock is necessary. Yet, the massive New Year's Eve billing came with the deceit of the Kahoutek cohnet. I recommend all to go see Patti Smith and Television, only I hope all will wait till they can see her in territory that does justice to her creativity. Friday, 21 January 1977 , The Spectrum . Page nine �RECORDS Wishbone Ash, New England (Atlantic) In this first paragraph, I am supposed to mention the subject of this series of paragraphs (although it is clearly expressed in the title). The subject is the record (or 8-track, cassette, or let's be fair) named New England reel-to-reel tape by a three or four member band (more on that later) named Wishbone Ash which has, over the past five or so years, put out about seven albums. This country (leaving the subject for a moment), which in just the last half-year has brought you creeping paralysis, mass-produced Nadia and her theme song, delivered Carter from "What s My Line to the Oval Office, and has forced you through yet another Christmas (more on that later), has also guaranteed everyone freedom of expression. So Wishbone Ash can record and market anything they want, and I can write anything I want. As Donald Sutherland said in the black comedy that's perfectly alright." Little Murders Everything is perfectly alright. It is perfectly alright for Wishbone Ash to release this album, it is perfectly alright for me to say anything want about it or about anything I want to say anything about, and it is perfectly alright for my editor to swear at me for submitting this collection of personal gripes as an album review. - " ... I Christmas being what it is in this country well, suffice it to say it is a season of markets. The movie industry brought us a glut of movies. The television industry brought us a glut of specials and idiots in red suits advertising products from scores of other industries. And the music industry brought us an "glut" would be an understatement avalanche of new music (though neither of those last two words is very accurate). — Rupert Holmes, Singles (Epic) Mention the term Middle of the Road (MOR) to any group of college or high school students, and you will most likely receive a very negative response (to put it mildly). The usual image MOR projects is that of a shallow, money-grabbing crooner. While this image is generally accurate, there are some performers who actually write and arrange their own material, refusing to perfof?thon the nightclub stage, where they feel the studio effect would be lost. Rupert Holmes is a member of this minority. Best known as a producer, he has worked with many artists, ranging from the Strawbs to Barbra Streisand. Nevertheless, he is also an artist in his own right, and has three very well crafted albums to his credit. His latest release, Singles, may be just what he needs to gain some deserved recognition as a singer-songwriter, at least among the easy listening crowd. The major reason for that last statement is found in the opening track, called "Who, What, When, Where, Why?" This is the first disco song that he has recorded, and, unlike similar efforts by other MOR performers, it comes off quite well. Supported by a beat more typical of Al Green, Holmes winds his way through a restrained melody and a tasteful arrangement. The simple, unorthodox lyrics (for a disco song) add greatly to its charm. — - This annual cycle is justified with the simple, unexplaining phrase, "That's business." The cycle is as predictable as the shopping hysteria on the day after Thanksgiving, or the seasonal reruns of both the Grinch's and Charlie Brown's versions of Christmas. And that yet-tb-be-identified supks it a|l in, buying and spending and wrapping and giving and taking arid breaking and exchanging and returning for a refund. The public demands, so the industry supplies, and chances are good that your favorite musical group or performer wifi release something on vinyl between mid-October and mid-December. And let us not forget Sessions and K-tel, the number one arguments against television commercials and the number one insults against any semblance of I'm caught in a fog Can't you make it dear? The truth can't be worse than the things I fear / t's a mystery to me I haven't a clue If somebody else has a part of you. This is his only obvious attempt at disco, although traces of the style appear elsewhere on the album. Most of the time, however. Singles does not deviate from the standard fare of easy listening recordings. Every song focuses on romantic love (one is actually entitled "The Last of the Romantics," a fitting title for Holmes himself), but there is no preoccupation with the soap opera type sex that presently seems to characterize the style. If MOR ever had a respectable spokesman, Rupert Holmes is it. Musically, Singles succeeds because it avoids the pitfalls which commonly ruin MOR efforts. As might be expected, it is excellently produced. Many critics have accused Holmes of being far too heavy on production? One even said his music "rolls out on metal casters." This is an unfair criticism, for he tends to vary his techniques, making the production fit the song. His ability is especially noticeable on "You Make Me Real" and "For Beginners Only," essentially imitations of the lush, grandiose ballads of the early sixties. (Remember Little Anthony and the Imperials?) In contrast, "Annabella" and "Singles" are given refined, subtle backdrops that accentuate their innate delicacy. If Singles has any shortcomings, they are concomitants of the genre it represents, rather than specific flaws of the album itself. For one thing, like all easy listening music, it is quite commercial, but not excessively so. Its lyrics may also sound somewhat simple-minded to some. In other words, if the listener has never liked MOR, Singles will do little to change his/her attitude. However, for those who do not have an aversion to the style, Singles is eminently worth listening to. It is an enjoyable and very consistent recording. Considering the present state of MOR and popular music in general, what more could you want? —Eugene Zielinski Page ten The Spectrum Friday, 21 January 1977 . . average American intelligence left in this country. Merry Christmas. And now you're back in school and wondering releases, or you why there is a slump in new album about much of are too busy playing Pong to wonder anything. Happy New Year. Or you're wondering who the hell is Wishbone T-shirt as if it Ash. People look at my Wishbone Ash Society. (Then were a code word for the John Birch T-shirt and ask what part Chicago my see they again, of I'm from). Briefly, this latest release is a collection of fairly Wishbone Ash material. If you don't know town typical what typical is for Ash, consider that a large share of their earlier work can easily pass for marching music, accenting strange-sounding guitars and unintelligible lyrics, using tow leads as rhythm guitars, which means they use more than 3-string chords for the backbone of their songs (see; Rollers, Bay City; Company, Bad; and Overdrive, B.T.). Specifically, the album opens with "Mother of Pearl," a fairly obnoxious rocker (though it has a aesthetic chorus), followed by one of their standards, an electrified English folk-type ballad, "Runaway" is another fuzzed-out rocker, minus the pleasing chorus* The final first-side song, "Lorelei," strikes a happy medium, with a quicker pace than the ballad but exhibiting more musical competence (and less noise) than their harder rock. The chorus, however, is the song's weak point. "Outward Bound" on Side Two is Ash's attempt danceable to disco: a to lend credibility instrumental. I personally like instrumentals (it removes one more element from the song which could be fucked up). Continuing, there are two more ballads, one lead-ridden and oppresive, the other very soothing, and a bit boring. Two short, sweet, guitar-oriented melodies (fillers) border these two ballads. Hipgnosis does their album covers. Incidentally, unauthorized reproduction of this recording is prohibited by federal law and subject to criminal prosecution (do you look to the back forThe prices on your birthday cards?). The band has a unique sound. They broke out of their creative rut with the album There's the Rub from 1974, but fortunately they fell back in. . , Rub is my favorite Ash release. What I wanted to say is that it is their best album, but that would suggest that my musical tastes are perfect and above reproach, and although that is exactly what I think, I could not let on that I hold my personal preferences in such high esteem.

Beginning with the surprise success of the hauntingly beautiful "Sara Smile," picked off the "silver" album, their fortunes skyrocketed. With "Sara Smile" approaching gold, the sales of th "silver" album, their first for RCA, suddenly picket up, until by year's end it too, had gone gold. Not to let the opoortunity roll by, Atlantic Records, Hall and Oates' first record label, released the underground classic "She's Gone," off the AAbandoned Luncheonette album. Needless to say not only did "She's Gone" vault into the top 10, but Abandoned Luncheonette's sales took off so fast, that within weeks of the song's release, it became their first album to be certified gold. For Hall & Oates, however, 1976 wasn't quite over. In late August, a new offering from RCA, Bigger Than Both Of Us, was released to both artistic and commercial instant acclaim. The album, a synthesis of all the styles and influences evidenced in their others, came at just the right time. Hall and Oates were hot, the album was good, and the public Promoting the album and was responsive. themselves, Daryl Hall and John Oates embarked on a coast to coast tour, culminating in December with two sold-out concerts in their adopted hometown, New York. Memorable concert I caught them at the Century Theater in Buffalo last December 11, and I'm still shocked at the pure brillance of their performance. All the raving and critical acclaim I had previously heard about Hall and Oates live were right there in front of my awe struck eyes. The urgency, the passion, the raw emotion, they exuded, was mind-boggling. Trying to use adjectives to describe Hall's vocals will only prove pointless, since there really is no way the use of mere words can do half justice to such an extraordinary singer Vivien Goldman commented after a recent Hall Oates show in the British music journal Sounds, "Daryl's vocals must take a lot of credit because really he's got me reaching for those useless old superlatives. His range, control, and pure passion were a revelation. On 'Sara Smile' and 'Is It A Star, he could just about make your heart stand still. & Harmonies If there's any male singer around today that comes close to matching Daryl Hall, I have yet to hear him. Though Hall is clearly the star and attention getter, the impressive guitar work and co-vocals of John Oates should not be overlooked. Oates, with his earthy, strong baritone, possesses one Prodigal Sun of the best harmony voices in rock. He compliments Daryl Hall like two sides of a coin. Though rarely given the spotlight, when given the chance, as on "I'm Just A Kid" and "Crazy Eyes;" he's in total command. His rendition of "I'm Just A Kid" was especially effective in the Buffalo show, winning a standing ovation. Their concert covered just about all the styles that have come to be associated with them. Their choice of material, was excellent, utilizing such different idioms as jazz, r&b, folk, and hard rock. Even a tinge of blues. Both have extensive musical backgrounds. With training in so. many different styles, it's no wonder their music reflects numerous influences. Both grew up in the Philadelphia area and became involved in the music scene there. Rock and roll baby Daryl, 27, spent his childhood in Pottstown, Pennsylvania about forty miles out of Philadelphia. 'It's sort of surburban now," he recollects, "but back then it was really country. I spent a great deal of time alone. I had a lot of time to develop my fantasies. My parents were classical musicians and they gave me piano lessons and voice lessons. But after the first time I heard rock and roll, it was all over." The first record he bought was Ike and Tina Turner's (I Think) 'It's Gonna Work Out Fine', which completely sold Daryl on rock and roll. "I was running away to Philadelphia as soon as I could." Befote long, the young, very blond surburbanite was spending his days on street corners, singing with local "under the street lamp" a capella groups. However, all through this period in Daryl's life, he stuck to his classical training. "It got to be a point where I was singing with the Philadelphia Orchestra in the afternoon and then would sing back up for Smokey Robinson at the Uptown Theater later that night." Hall was very much influenced by the Temptations then, and somewhere at home he has a photo of himself, at seventeen, with them. "I learned more from David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks than from anyone else." At 18, Daryl got involved with many local Jersey Shore bands and cut his first record with Kenny Gamble and the Romeos. Gamble, of course, along with Thom Bell and Leon Huff, are the men most responsible for the current "Philly" sound. Daryl got his start working at Sigma Sound Studios in Philadelphia as a session man. He worked on recordings by groups like the Stylistics, The Delphonics, and many others. In the late sixties', Hall and producer Tom Sellers got together with singer/songwriter Tim Moore to form the folk-rock band Gulliver. Gulliver was able to sign with Elecktra and release an album.

They both were attending Temple University, and hit it off so well that they soon became roommates. Having a mutual interest in music, they began to perform together around the Philadelphia area. On record, their first discs were disasters. Recalls Oates, "It just sounded ridiculous. The songs were bad and our voices sounded terrible together." Oates, 26, was given the go ahead by his parents to get into rock and roll. His mother even took him to a Bill Haley and the Comets concert. Born in New York, he moved to Philadelphia at four. By 8 he started playing guitar and imitating Elvis Presley. Oates reflects, "I always knew it was music. Td watch bands with my mouth open, chills running down my spine. I'd go to the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, to see bands like Sam & Dave or U.S. Bonds and I'd go crazy. I always knew music was the way, the answer." Strangely enough, Oates got heavily involved with folk music, becoming a part of the Philadelphia folk scene. At Temple, he majored in journalism, which he credits as a big help with his songwriting. By 1972, Hall and Oates had buift a sort of cult following on the basis of their live performances, and subsequently signed with Atlantic Records. Philadelphia Whole Oates, produced by Arif Mardin, was their first album on Atlantic. It was basically a pot-pourri of their best material to date, and a smooth blending of folk and r&b. Comments Oates; "The LP was a conscious attempt to mellow out against the unmellow things that were happening around us. Take 'Fall in Philadelphia.' That song was self-explanatory. I got beat up on the streets of Philly and people were just standing around selling dope." Hall adds, "Those lyrics were written in about five minutes, we just looked around. After that, we left Ph illy for New York." Although the album succeeded artistically, it was a commercial flop. Their next effort. Abandoned Luncheonette, was a musical progression for the duo. They added a rhythm section and mellotrons, introduced new sounds from synthesizers, and the like. Arif Mardin again produced, with the aid of fellow Philadelphian Chris Bond Daryl says, "What we tried to do was fuse progressive music with soul music." Off this album came the classic "She's Gone," which Hall and Oates had hoped would be the song to put their names on the map. Unfortunately, both the single and the LP went by virtually unnoticed by record-buyers, which caused the duo to re evaluate themselves and their relationship with Atlantic. Says Daryl, "After 'She's Gone' didn't make it as a hit single for us, we just went looking for the door. It was our biggest sore point with Atlantic." Musical experiment Their last album on Atlantic. War Babies, s, re leased October 1974, was a total departure from their previous disc. It was progressive rock taken to it's extreme, produced, arranged, and lead guitar by Todd Rundgren. A very harsh album, it reflected the ambivalence they felt towards New York City life, and a society dominated by war and mass media. It was also a product of the confusion and chaos that Hall & Oates were experiencing regarding their musical direction. According to Oates,. "Basically Babies was a project, inserted between our real selves. I was going through a lot of personal problems at the time, kind of wasting through life. It was basically Daryl's pet. He wanted to test his wings and see how far he could go. Since we had rfo handle on the public, we had plenty of room." "I think Babies really typefies 70's music,", comments Hall. "Only it was released in a period when people were unwilling to accept reality. Disco was just starting to invade the airwaves and along with it came a whole-non-retrospective attitude to life. Now that the party is dying down a bit, people are looking at Babies more seriously." "Babies was cold, metallic, nihilistic. It was all our conflicts coming out. It was very naked music. We had uprooted ourselves, come to New York and picked up on all the madness around us." As a whole. War Babies, in my opinion may very well be the finest crafted rock album in the history of rock. Everything from the vocals to the expert musicianship is superior throughout the LP. Back door exit After War Babies, which was another commercial bomb, still bitter at Atlantic over the failure of Abandoned Luncheonette, specifically "She's Gone," their contract having expired. Hall and Oates exited Atlantic for a new life on RCA. Commenting on the split, Oates says, "We snuck out sorta quietly. We snuck out the back door when there was a lack of communication between us and the record company. As soon as we did it, there was a freak-out at the company, like one person got in a lot of trouble for letting us slip away. We were really happy we pulled it off." As a debut album for RCA, the duo released the "silver" album, simply titled, Daryl Hall and John Oates. It was a "safe" album for them. Rather than risk any more experimentation, they felt for the sake of their own careers to return to the r&b sound of Abandoned Luncheonette. The album was a reconciliation, a peace upon the waters. As John Oates says, "On the silver LP we played it safe, because we were coming off War Babies and wanted to reinstate our identities." Well, not only did they reinstate their identities, but in the process won themselves thousands of new fans. Out of the album came the song that keyed their rise, "Sara Smile." Commenting on the success of "Sara Smile," Daryl Hall says, "Sara Smile is a breath of reality out of a glossy, raw, nothingness. It strikes a responsive chord in one's head and it's pleasing in harmonic and tonal values while it maintains straightforwardness and innocence. But even innocence can become manufactured if that's what you think is expected of you. You can't get caught." One more thing about the "silver" album; it had a very unusual cover. The duo was portrayed in make-up and meticulously styled hair, looking like some kind of Bowie-ish spinoffs. "We did that because we really dislike labels that people tend to put on things." says Hall. "One of our little quests is to make people break set V. patterns of thinking." Completely different For the follow-up to the "silver" album. Hall & Oates decided to do something more rock oriented. Rather than issuing a carbon copy of the "silver" album to avoid risk. Bigger Than Both Of Us was something completely different. The album has a feel of spontaneity, uninhibitedness, of being "down to earth." Commenting on the LP just before it's release, Daryl said, "The new LP sounds unbelievable. It's more rock, it's more energetic. It's more live oriented in it's concept and the rhythm arrangements are especially stressed. It's so much better than all our other stuff." While it's doubtful Hall really meant the album was that much better than their others* it was a gem. Songs like "Back Together Again," "Rich Girl," and the dramatic "Do What You Want, Be What You Are," are bound to become Hall & Oates standards. As Timofhy White said in Crawdaddy, "I was totally unprepared for this magnificent effort . . . Hall and Oates have created an adventure in sound, full of unanticipated delights. Bigger Than Both Of Us is destined to educate virtually everyone who wants to rock in the seventies! I can only envy those hearing this record for the first time." As Hall & Oates enter 1977, they have a skin-tight schedule with plans galore. In January they begin an extensive tour of Europe, first touring Great Britain. This tour, their longest in their career, began last September in the States. In the spring they're scheduled to release a live album, already in the can. Sometime before their next studio album, supposedly in the fall, Daryl Hall plans to put out a solo album, which he says will be totally different from his work with Oates. Also, to cash in on the bdndwagon, Atlantic plans on putting out a "best of" collection, containing material from the three Atlantic discs as well as some unreleased tracks.

Stay healthy Putting the life of a rock star in a most accurate perspective. Hall philosophizes, "I've become a success junky. I decided to set aside the next three years to do nothing but what I'm doing, now that we've got our foot in the door. It's often hard to cultivate a state of reality from a dream-like existence. I never want to run my life for rock and roll, the more success, the less it means. I'm hoping to come out of all this with a healthy mind and body, able to bring it home and become a full person again. There's only a certain amount of time you can be a proficient songwriter, proficient not active. You can always write songs, but you can't always be a star. When I'm a wrinkled old man I know I'll still need my natural medium of expression, composing, but I'll want to have lived a full emotional life."

"We used to play high schools and clubs and get things thrown at us for playing original material. It happened even when Kansas began. People want to hear copy music like the Stones. "Would you believe disco music has hit Kansas? I nearly threw up when —I hear "Disco Duck." Hope still becomes frightened at audience antics. "People get so excited they throw the wine flasks UURB FilmCommitte and bottles on the stage. This Buffalo crowd is pretty wild especially that guy in the first few rows who lit up that torch."

So said Art Garfunkel to some NEW STUDENTS and TRANSFERS Come to BREAKFAST TODAY- 8 am -12 noon backstage at Klemhans Music Hall as he completed his two-night debut performance with Micheal Tilson-Thomas and Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. Truly, this night was one to be remembered. It is rare when a critic can say that a concert cannot be done justice by mere words. It is difficult to write a statement including such strong words because -of the critic's constrained outlook on the music scene. This outlook is an image expected of the critic by his peers and even his audience. Frankly, it is an eternal trend for the critic to be stuffy and stodgy. Garfunkel, Thomas and the Philharmonic must be lauded with expository, most the communicative words to do justice to the feeling expressed on stage. The eveing was magical and reasons; for two atypical Garfunkel had done absolutely no concerts in recent years prior to this appearance; also, the unusual arrangements by Thomas for the symphony complemented Garfunkel's choir-like voice. The fine acoustics of Kleinhans Music Hall showcased the pieces of classical music intermixed with the embellished folk classics of Simon and Garfunkel to provide the essence of this Pops. concert. The theme of the concert was "The Fair," the epiphanic and cacophonic rhythms of festival might life be complex to duplicate. I feared. But any fear was for naught.

The idea can be correlated to notes on a musical staff as the mood of the audience becomes the melody of the scale. Intricacies present in the notes of the Buffalo Philharmonic as a whole can be used as a messenger for understanding simpler musical expressions. Like rock. Like the music of Art Garfunkel.

It had to be so since any mistake and faltering would upset the music's perfection. The mistake would be heard with such clarity that is would be unforgiveable. Subsequent to this set, the by Philharmonic, conducted performed without Thomas, Garfunkel. Thomas beseeched the audience to picutre in their minds a homan fair, "a circus with peddlers of all sorts" with musicians and vendors present. The piece to be performed was "Roman Respighi from Festivals, 4th Movement. The — — — — Epiphany." The composition begins with the Philharmonic arranged in seeming cacophony as the senses are bombarded with sound upon entering a plaza in which the festival is held. The senses focus on fun and gaiety. The place on the fair is light and enjoyable and seems the second part of Respighi's piece. Trumpets sound and build; a tuba is played with the serious and soothing sounds of the string section in the background. The tempo is mellowed and the music is finished. After intermission, Thomas and Garfunkel play keyboards and sing tunes of the Thirties, such as Rogerts and Hart's "Little Girl experience Blue." The is surprising, as Garfunkel makes his keyboard playing debut and Thomas shows off his writing and singing talents for the first time. Ah, but the concert's peak, the concert's best moment is yet to come. 'Scarborough Fair' is performed with the headphoned Pete Carr the blandishing Philharmonic string section to flavor the tune. The resulting sound is devastating. Embracing music The audience rises to its feet. Garfunkel bows, exits and returns to encore with "Sounds of Silence," the fascinating tune of stealthy communism and Marxian philosophy. The song is arranged to embrace the themes of darkness and light. "Hello darkness my old friend and the sound of the orchestra is lilting, suspicious because of the words. But as the words of light are spoken, the instruments glimmer, shivering with vibrant and excited response. Even if you missed Garfunkel, you need not miss Micheal Tilson-Thomas and the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra. They are right in your own backyard. You owe it to yourself to see them.

To whom this concerns (the bureaucracy of The general consensus of most students myse f concerning U.B.’s continuous classes during the snowstorm on the days of the 18th and 19th is assinine. It shows that the bureaucrats have little guts, or sense concerning energy and student welfare. For example, it is a known fact that buses were out of commission due to the inclement weather on the 18th. It requires energy to run a bus as well as to heat the classrooms and campus areas where lectures are held. The following I pose to the administration oT U.B.; don’t you give a damn if yoUr students get sick, don’t you care whether or not there is enough energy to heal homes, hospitals and the like rather than a classroom? Aren’t you concerned that running a bus in such hazardous conditions could result in injury to students as well as the driver of the vehicle?

Spectrum Staff Writer Although Santa Claus is not a at the registered student University of Buffalo, it is becoming evident that he is a Bull hockey fan. For Christmas this year, he gave the Buffalo skaters their big wins over Division II opponents (the division which Buffalo is in), including a 5-4 triumph over number three ranked Union College. The Bulls are now 6-3 in the division. St. Nick began his generous ways on January 8, when the Bulls clobbered the New England College Pilgrims 1 2-3 in Henniker, New Hampshire. Highlights of the game were Jack Kaminska’s four goals and center Rick Costello’s three tallies. The Buffalo skaters built a 4-2 lead in the first period, exploded for six more in the second, and added two more in the third. Leading scorer Ray “Toughie” Gruarin picked up two goals for the Bulls, giving him a season total of 29 points (7 goals, 22 a 5-4 The Bulls, who were outshot 41-33 on the night, went into the game’s final frame trailing by three, with Tony Scaringi’s goal being the only Buffalo tally. But inspired by ihe sensational veteran, John goaltending o( Moore, the Bulls roared back. For six minutes Buffalo was two men down, but Moore kept the Dutchmen off the board by repelling every drive sent ai him. by chunky Sparked the netminder’s stellar performance, the Buffalo offense then went to the work on Union cage. Although the Bulls were unable to score during their own lengthy two man advantage, they came back with four goals in rather rapid succession to stun Union. Hard working right winger Stu Campbell scored the winning goal for Buffalo at 16:20 of ths final frame. It was Campbell’s fifth tally of the season. Gruarin, and Costello had Kaminska, scored earlier in the period for the Bulls. When the Bulls took to the play road to on Saturday Hamilton College, it appeared that their Christmas joy might be over. The Continentals scored with only 53 seconds gone by and continued to swarm the Buffalo goal for the rest of the game, firing 45 shots at Moore, once again between the 4-1 third period deficit into by Larry Amoros assists). The holiday spirit followed the Bulls back to the Tonawanda Sports Center on the eleventh, College the Union when Dutchmen came to town. A more fitting gift than a victory could not be found, as the Bulls were keenly aware of the two defeats at the hands of the Dutchmen last season. In one of those losses, a 5-4 overtime defeat, a bench brawl erupted led by Union coach Ned Harkness, formerly of Cornell University and tjie Detroit Red Wings. With those games in mind the Bulls went shopping for a win, and found it when they turned a clearing pipes. But Moore must have been good all year long, because Santa kept looking out for him.

Moore, recently named Athlete-of-the-Month sparkled throughout the contest, and held the fort while his teammates rallied to score on eight of their 34 shots. Kaminska scored the winner for the Bulls in the first period, his 14th of the year. The soft-spoken left wing added another one in the third period, bringing his team leading total to 15. Also noteworthy is the fact that the Buffalo power play cashed in twice, with defenseman Carl Koeppel scoring in the first period, and blueline partner Tony ■ Vesona scoring in the second. three Coupled with the ■power-play goals the Bulls scored against Union, it appears that the. unit is play power Bulls functioning in perfect fashion. ' The Bulls play their next four games on the road, including a rematch with Union, who up until now, had never lost a Division II contest. The Buffalo skaters return to the Tonawanda Sports Center February 12th, for a weekend series against archrival Oswego State College. The Bulls have split the two games played against Oswego this season. Correct phone number Father Edward Fisher and Father Phillip Uzdawinis of the Newman Center, 490 Frontier Rd., can be contacted at 688-2123 for advisement and Religious group contact. The number in the student directory is incorrect. It hasn't been a good month for goaltender Johnny Moore. It has been a great month in the middle of an outstanding year. His 5.02 goals against average is quite misleading, since it includes games against national powers, but again Division II teanris (Buffalo's division), Moore has been outstanding. He stopped 37 shots while helping the Bulls defeat Union 5—4, the first time Union had ever lost a Division II regular season game. He also stopped 43 shots while leading Buffalo past Hamilton last week. According to one observer, Moore has looked like a NHL goalie, and he is The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week.

The Bulls last game, a 91-82 loss to Temple at Clark Hall Monday night, exemplified the Bulls problems: The biggest problem the Bulls currently have is injuries. Of the season’s original starting five, only three are healthy. Senior forward Sam Robinson, a good scorer and an even better rebounder, is currently out with a broken hand, after missing two games because of a problem with his foot. Larry Jones, a forward-guard, injured his knee in the team’s seventh game at Celmson, and hasn’t played since. He is out for the season. Dana Mitchell, the team’s only freshman, was coming along strong when he broke his hand at Maine, and junior Art Garfinkel is also out, beset by the same injuries which have nagged him for two years. Several other players are playing with minor injuries. Reserves As a result, coach Leo Richardson has had to use his reserves more than he ordinarily would have. Against Temple, the starting fron line of Sam Pellom, Vernell Washington and Eric Spence all had to sit down with three personal fouls with about five minutes remaining in the first half. Richardson sent in his reserves, and the absence of Robinson and Jones was keenly felt. Buffalo got only one rebound the rest of the half, and a one-point Buffalo lead turned into a six point Temple lead. “It’s tough to play when you’re missing one-third of your offense,” Richardson said. “If we would have had our starting give, we would have been right in there.” When the entire team was healthy, it took Niagara two overtimes to beat them, and Howard University needed a jumpshof with one second left to win the game. No matter how healthy the team is, it still has had to struggle against a schedule loaded with national powers, and against teams with fifteen full scholarships. Clemson, Holy Cross and Detroit, all national powers, have already beaten Buffalo, and the team faces another stiff test from Syracuse than he ordinarily would have. Against Temple, the starting front line of on Monday night at the Aud. In the interim, Buffalo will face their first non-Division I team all year on Saturday at Geneseo, and Tuesday night at Clark Hall, the Bulls face the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee. Team still trying love letters But despite the losing streak, schedule and injuries, the team has not given up. “It’s tough not to be frustrated,” said Richardson. “But when the., kids give you the effort like they did tonight (against Temple), it’s not too bad. They could have dropped dead when we were down by 20 points, but they didn’t.” “It is kind of frustrating,” Spence said, “But I think anybody would be frustrated when they were losing. It’s noflike we’re going out there and messing up.” Pellom, whose rise to stardom seems to have been interrupted by a season of mediocrity this year, pointed out another problem. “I could say I was in a slump. Everyone’s in a slump right now.” The team is still looking to find someone they can depend upon for a big game. Early in the season, Spence looked like he was going to take charge, but has cooled off since then. Johnson hot Recently guard Ed Johnson has come on strong, putting in twenty or more points in each of the last four games, including 32 against Temple. He’s been shooting more, and as a result, he’s been scoring more. “I’m more comfortable now,” said Johnson. “At the start of the year, I was trying to blend more into the team. The type of game I’m playing now is what I’m used to playing.” Richardson admits that the team, even if completely healthy, probably couldn’t beat a national power. Richardson lost 12 games in a row his first year here, so he is no stranger to adversity. But with only one national power (Syracuse) left on the schedule, and three of the injured players expected back sometime this year, the second half of the season should be better than the first. It certainly can’t be any worse. DON QUIXOTE AND THE NOVEL (in English) 1:00 -1:50- MWF Acheson Annex 4 Comp. Lit.

Friday, 21 January 1977 The Spectrum . Page seventeen . �Proposal tabled Buffalo remains in NCAA Division I Several issues which could affect the athletic programs here were discussed at the 71st annual NCAA National Meeting last week in Miami oeacrr. - r — A major proposal to restructure Division 1 was defeated. Division !, to which Buffalo belongs, is the NCAA’s highest division. Many of the football superpowers, for various reasons, proposed that only schools with big-time football and basketball participate in Division I competition. Due to strong opposition, this proposal was tabled. If it had passed, this University, along with Canisius, Niagara and many other universities around the country, would no longer have been allowed to compete in Division 1. Buffalo probably would have had to drop to Division III if it had passed, although from one to four sports individually could remain in Division 1 if they met certain criteria. Scholarships Another proposal, to limit financial aid to atheletes based on need, was also defeated. Currently, there is no regulation regarding scholarships based on need. This proposal has come up each of the last three years. One porposal was approved that will affect one team at this University. The proposal states that in order for a league or conference to have its member, gain automatic qualification into NCAA finals, that league must compete in at least six sports. Buffalo is a member of the Eastern Wrestling League, which competes only in wrestling. Twenty-five wrestlers from the league, advanced to the NCAA finals under the previous arrangement. Last year, Bruce Hadsell of Buffalo advanced to the NCAA finals this way. The new regulation, which takes effect in 1980, will force the Eastern Wrestling League to take some action. According to Ed Muto, the league’s vice-president and the Co-ordinator of Men’s Athletics at Buffalo, the league has three choices. If can disband, enlarge to cover six sports, or it can amend the regulation at the next NCAA national meeting. Muto said that the league will have to meet later this year to decide what they will do.

Cousins optimistic this year by Joy Clark Assistant Sports Editor Women’s basketball coach Liz Cousins is looking forward to a season filled with fast breaks and full court presses, which she hopes will overcome her team’s lack of height. “We’ll have to run and press a lot and hope that our shots fall,” she commented. The Bulls home opener is tonight against Ithaca College, in Clark Hall at 7 p.m. Cousins has a good nucleus on which to build her team. Senior Clyde O’Malley, a hustling, team-oriented guard, is back for her fourth season, as is forward Marilyn Dellwardt. Regina Frazier, a quick, aggressive guard and Sue Rury, an improving sophomore, are also returning this year. Nan Harvey, another veteran of last year’s team, is switching positions this year, from guard to forward. Cousins felt that Harvey, who is a strong rebounder, could be used more effectively on the inside. Harvey, who shares the co-captain’s duties with O’Malley, seems to be making the transition We want men and women with engineering or other technical degrees for careers in steel operations, shipbuilding, engineering, sales, mining, and research. smoothly Cousins is very enthusiastic about one of the freshman, Paula Hills. “She’s really going to help,” commented Cousins about the 5’8” forward, “She has a lot of enthusiasm.” Other freshman on the team are Gabi Gray, a forward-guard with a good outside shot, and Anna Eng, a guard who excells on defense. Cousins hopes that her aggressive team will overcome any height disadvantages. “We want to try to run by teams,” she said. One problem she won’t have is attitude. “The kids work really hard. I’m really pleased with the way they work,”she said. The Bulls have played two scrimmages so far, which gave the coach an idea of what the team has to work on. “We haven’t been controlling the boards and we haven’t been hitting our shots,” she observed. She blamed the poor shooting on nervousness, especially in the game against Niagara, since it was Buffalo’s first game and Niagara’s sixth. In future games, the players will have to work for better positioning for both shooting and rebounding. Ithaca College has a good size team with a lot of balance, so the Bulls will have a tough challenge tonight. According to Cousins, the Bombers have fifteen players who are all good. “We’ll have to stay out of foul trouble, stay in the game mentally and eliminate little mistakes in order to do well,” she said. With her quick, hustling team, player-to-player defense is the logical choice for Cousins, but she plaps to switch her defense as the situation warrants. The coach also plans to vary her starting line-up. “We don’t hae just five starters.” she said, “It will depend on who we are playing.” Against large teams, she will start the faster players, but against a small team, she will use her taller players. Cousins isn’t too worried about winning. “My goal is to be into the game, not to win,” she commented. “If they play every play the way they should, then winning will take care of itself.” Wrestlers make the best of a dismal year by Marshall Rosenthal! Spedmm Staff Writer While most of the student body has been worrying about the blistering winter weather, wrestling coach Ed Michael has had other things on his mind. During the semester break, Buffalo split their four matches. The Bulls walloped RIT and Guelph, after being trounced by Clarion State and nipped by Pittsburgh. The losses were especially frustrating because Pittsburgh and Clarion are in the same league as Buffalo, the Eastern Wrestling League. The grapplers’ season record now stands'at 2-4, but their league record is a dismal 0-3. Facing the Pitt Panthers at Clark Mall on January 8. the Bulls were edged out 20—19 in a match the Bulls actually should have won. For the first time in his career as head coach of the Buffalo squad, Michael publicly blamed his team’s loss on poor officiating. “It was a great meet, but we were the victims of questionable officiating,” Michael ... said. "Bob Martineck had his man on his back and when he was about to be pinned, the official called a potentially dangerous hold, which cost us the match. We should have beaten Pittsburgh, there is no Our Loop Course recruiters will be here on question Jan. 31, Feb. 1,1977 Let’s talk about it. Loop’s way about it.” Clarion, then two wins When the Bulls travelled to Clarion four days later, they found no solace there, either. Clarion manhandled Buffalo 26-l.T, as only three Bulls managed to win their contests: co-captains Martineck and Kirk Anderson, wrestling at 150 and 158 respectively, and Ed Tyrrell at 134. “Clarion is simply a better team than us,” Michael explained. The Bulls returned to Buffalo to trounce RIT (50-2) and Guelph (31-13) last Saturday. “We have a problem this year, and ills that we are inconsistent Michael commented. Out defeats are not that the boys don’t work hard, but when we are beaten, we are beaten by better teams.” But Michael is still proud ot his team. “They are doing the best they can as a group, and our boys are the kind ot people that will give their best. On any given day they can beat anybody.” ” Inconsistency and excellence l or the time being, Michael did admit that tor the Bulls to win, they must play above Hjeir heads.” lie also pointed out that inconsistency is a trademark ot an individual who must over-achieve in order to win. Although this year’s squad has many glaring problems as a group, there are individual grapplers who are having superb seasons. One of these bright spots is Anderson. In the six dual matches he has entered, Anderson has lost only once. But more importantly, Anders*.n placed sixth in the prestigious Midlands Open Tournament, two weeks ago. In a competition that pits the best in tin equal opportunity employer Bethlehem £ Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Friday, 21 January 1977 wrestlers the United States against one another. Anderson won six and lost two matches. Anderson was victorious over grapplers from powerhouse wrestling schools such as Wisconsin, Northern Iowa, Iowa and Arizona, while he lost to wrestlers from Oklahoma and Cleveland. Despite the team’s record, the name Kirk Anderson brings a smile to the face of wrestling coach Ed Michael. �CLASSIFIED AD INFORMATION — DRAFTING (used PENS in for sale. 836-1853.

In response to The the investigation, Spectrum 's Department held its first required auction in 23 years Saturday to installment get rid of the many stereos, bicycles, and appliances that have accumulated. by Marty Schwartz Contributing Editor Outgoing County Erie Undersheriff Michael D’Amico played an active role in the County Legislature’s abolishment of seven top positions within the Sheriff’s Department for next year, including six Captains and one Inspectors post, according to Legislator Raymond County Gallagher (D., Lak.). Gallagher, chainuan of the Safety Public Legislature’s Committee, told The Spectrurh that in an attempt to cut 50 budget lines from the Department designated by County Executive Edward Regan for 1977, the to Sheriff was submit recommendations as to what jobs would either be vacant or could be cut. Gallagher said that at least some of the legislators who voted for the cuts might have had no idea initially that there were actually -«ny deputies in those Many the Sheriff’s Department claim that the selection of the seven top positions administrative was strictly out of vindictiveness on the part of D’Amico and Sheriff Michael Amico in an attempt to get back at Sheriff-elect Kenneth Braun and his supporters. “Amico knows his cronies are gone as of January 1, and so now he’s just trying to screw Braun,” one deputy said. “Amico picked those Captains because he felt they had not individuals within supported him in the campaign,” one observer commented. Deputies worried Individuals close to the new Sheriff say that Amico has resisted any cooperative effort to help Braun take over, and has made the transition extremely difficult. Braun told newsmen that he sent Amico a letter three weeks ago requesting his help, but it wasn’t until a few days ago that Amico responded, and volunteered his services. Informed sources within the Sheriff’s Department say that many of the deputies appointed by Sheriff Amico over the past “extremely are over their futures” when Braun takes office. Much of the concern is due to controversy over which individuals are “frozen in” under the Civil Service law. Personnel County Erie Commissioner John Clarke has prepared a list for the new Sheriff, seven the status of each member of the Department. Members of the Braun campaign claim that the cuts have Braun’s practically destroyed ability to establish order in the “chaos-ridden department” and effectively. administer it Apparently under pressure from Braun supporters, Undersheriff D’Amico recently requested that Legislator Gallagher try and save at least a few of the high-ranking showing positions at present years concerned Work Study wage rates for the month of October, Pecoraro worked the Monday Criticism of appointments four-to-twelve shift Sources within the Sheriff’s through Friday for the Sheriff’s Sheriff Amico has come under much criticism for the quality of Department claim that on Department, and thus received an his appointments over the past “numerous occasions” Benevento $8.00 night shift differential. seven years.

The usage of individual criteria in determining hourly wage rates for students in the work study program at this University has sparked the creation of a new wage scale. Wes Carter, Assistant Director of University Placement and Career Guidance, says he generally starts new students at $2.30 an hour, and gives those students with experience $2.50 an hour. He also distinguishes grad students and law students who receive a starting salary of $2.65 per hour, $.35 more than their undregrad counterparts. However, if a student is in dire financial Carter also need, considers personal expenses, such as rent and travel costs, in order to raise the wage. But, according to the College Work Study Manual, “The practice of paying student rates based wage exclusively on their year in school is permissable only under a given set of circumstances, namely that satisfactory performance of a job at a given level of skill is dependent upon that student’s level of academic advancement.” Supervisors recommended wages “1 assume the expenses of a law student are greater than an undergrad,” Carter explained. Yet, the manual disallows for this rationale. “It is not acceptable to base a student’s wage rate on his need or any other factor not basically related to his skills and abilities.” The manual “Varying wage also states enable rates institutions to pay students a wage commensurate with the skill required for a particular job and, in addition, offer promotional incentive to the student as he becomes more proficient on the job.” The 1970 guidelines which Carter does use to determine wages in the College Work Study Manual are unclear. For example: in one section of the manual, it states that students should get a raise for doing well on the job. Yet, another section of the code / The matter of obtaining raises questionable. also Five supervisors of various libraries (a major source of work for work-study students) were all under the mistaken impression that they could nor initiate raises, is while Carter said the raise process supervisor’s is largely up to the recommendation. When William A. Genrieh, a member of the State Board of Regents predicted last week a tuition increase of $100 to $200 annually at State Universities and colleges can be expected in the near future. He made the -Statement after a speech to the University of Buffalo Community Advisory Council, according to the Courier Express. Genrieh attributed the increase to rising interest payments on loans received from the state used for extensive building projects. He further warned that subsequent construction projects would lead questioned about the fact that the supervisors were unaware of this, Carter responded, “1 have probably been remiss” in making sure supervisors are clear on all procedures, adding that he hopes to “firm up” relations with them. His resolution begins with a notice to be sent out on January 1, in which Carter will remind supervisors of their ability to recommend students for raises, and, in addition, announce a “new —continued on Annual SUNY tuition increase is predicted page 4— to more tuition hikes. Genrieh, Amherst lawyer, explained to the approximately fifty Council members in the Tiffin Room in Norton Hall the cost of debt service for construction at SUNY campuses have nearly doubled since the 1971-72 school year. In addition, interest rates which are now $112 million will rise to $170 million by 1979. Genrieh justified his cautious attitude by pointing out the prepondererice of empty student spaces in the SUNY system. He emphasized that student enrollment will continue (o drop below predicted levels. Present building plans presuppose an enrollment of 416.000 students by 1980. “However,” Genrieh said, “the Regents expects SUNY’s enrollments to continue to decline until it reaches 254,000 in 1984.” This could result in a 65% capacity of SUNY schools. �Affirmative GSEU urges action against proposed cuts with University administration ever since the Union filed with the NYS Public Employee Relations Board (PERB) for elections to legal union determine the of SUNYAB’s representative graduate employees.

Sheriff-elect Braun said that each case would be reviewed separately after he takes office. ’ �No decision reached at three gun hearings A series of three hearings called by a subcommittee of the Faculty Senate of SUNY Albany concerning the arming of University Police on the Albany Campus ended last Wednesday. The police originally demanded guns three years ago, citing robberies in the dormitories as the reason. A closed hearing was held three weeks ago concerning the use of guns, at which time students burst in and demanded open hearings. The Central Council of the Student Association (SA) then adopted a resolution calling for the open hearings, although a proposal specifically condemning guns on campus was not reached at that thne. One SA spokesman felt that students were generally against the arming of University Police. He added that SA would probably adopt a resolution after Christmas vacation, against the arming of University Police. Campus roundup Shortfall in the SA budget is predicted In the first Student Association (SA) Financial Assembly meeting of this fiscal year. Assembly members voted to place a ceiling on all club budget requests in of the 1977—78 preparation budget. Anticipating a decrease in mandatory student fee revenues. President Schwartz Steven an amendment that would allow clubs to request no more than 30 percent more than this year, and all clubs would have to justify their proposals. This would apply to clubs that receive over a $200 allocation, thus acknowledging growth the potential of newer, smaller clubs. SA Treasurer Steven Blumberg that SA might be predicted $21,000 in the red by August if the current budget is not trimmed some $40,000, which would leave a cash balance of $20,000. Forseeing the probable reduction in club allocations this year, an amendment was added that said “the Financial Assembly supports the authority of the treasurer, when necessary, to restrict the mandatory of SA spending student fees when revenue levels a*p not attained.” Its sponsor, member Arthur Assembly Lalonde, pointed out that the treasurer already has the power to freeze the budget; thus, the an simply was amendment expression of “good faith.” It was also announced that the Black Student Union (BSU) will be audited sometime next week. members assembly Black proposed ' • ' the immediately protested upcoming audit, asking why other clubs weren’t to be subject to the same scrutinization. Blumberg the BSU has neglected to turn in receipts for cash advances, a violation he labeled “flagrant.” All other clubs will be audited sometime next semester, he said. explained that NWO funded The board of directors of Sub Board 1 voted tentatively last Thursday night to fund a single, experimental issue of New World Orchestra. The only condition placed on the publication of the cooperatively run newspaper was the about $1000 needed for the issue was actually available. Sub Board Treasurer Art Lalonde is expected to report back to the Board this week on whether the funds exist. Meanwhile, members of New WOrld Orchestra began efforts to re-form the cooperative and to encourage participation by new and old members, even as the semester come to an end. They had originally proposed a budget allowing for four issues of New World Orchestra to be published next semester beginning h> January. A motion by Millard Fillmore College representative Judy Jones to table discussion of World New Orchestra was narrowly defeated.

Involved is the issue of preferential admission of minorities to institutes of higher learning, a question first brought to national attention by the now famous DeFunis case. The present case involves the challenge of a rejected applicant to the University of California at Davis Medical School; The applicant, thirty-six year old Allan Bakke, a civil engineer, contends that the piedical school’s practice, of reserving 16 out of 100 first-year openings for minority students is a violation of the equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment. The medical school holds.it is not. This issue of “reverse discrimination” is the same as that debated in the DeFunis case. In 1974, as a surprise to many, the Supreme Court accepted to review the case of DeFunis v. Odegaard thereby bringing one of our nation’s most hotly contested legal and social debates to confrontation. DeFunis, a rejected applicant to the University of Washington Law School, mainly contended that because the university had separate admissions procedures for white and minority applicants, (blacks, Chicanos, native American Indians, and Phillipine Americans,) the result was a practice previously “invidious” discrimination ruled unconstituional by the Court. The law school answered that law school admissions should not be based solely on quantitative elements and that other factors, such as race, should be included. They contended that the use of such a procedure was not a violation of DeFunis’ rights and was therefore constitutional. Because DeFunis was earlier admitted to the law school by a lower court and was soon about to graduate, the Supreme Court declined to make a decision on the issue. Now it appears ready to do so. , — The University’s decision to appeal has received opposition because the present case is not a strong one for proponents of preferential admissions. Bakke has engineering degrees from the University of Minnesota and Stanford, was a Marine officer and N.A S.A. engineer, and scored in the 9,5th percentile on his entrance exams. He is challenging a type of quota which was only previously sustained by the Court as a remedy for proven past discrimination. So far no history of past discrimination has been produced by the medical school. The weakness of the medical school’s stand also has many civil rights leaders worried that the Court may also strike down many affirmative action programs along with preferential admissions. They university’s appeal the and have opposed Mexican-American civil rights officail Frank Cronin has termed the case “kind of a loser.” The Court recently granted the university 30 days to prepare an appeal to prove its admissions policy is within the constitutional framework. Bakke in the meantime has become a somewhat mysterious refusing to be interviewed or by figure photographed, and has only said, through his lawyer, that he believes medicine will be “more rewarding” than his “unsatisfying” engineering career. When the university’s 30 days are over, the Court will hear arguments and then render its decision, but whatever the outcome, the intense debate oyer preferential treatment of minorities is sure to continue. Christmas warning Select all toys with caution Now that the snow has started to fly, and Buffalo has assumed proper Christmas weather, many parents, and toher adults, have begun a blitzkrig on local retail merchants. Although desire to play Santa Claus can be irresistible to many parents, Erie Cqunty Health Commissioner John T. Gentry is urging parents to exercise care in selecting safe and appropriate toys for their young loved ones. The U.S. Consumer Product Commission, an Safety independent federal regulatory agency to help enforce the Child Protection and Toy Safety Act, has been very successful in getting dangerous toys off the store shelves in recent years. As a result, it is no longer necessary for the agency to publish its “banned products” list of hazardous play items. However, many toys can still be dangerous if misused by young children. Parents are well advised to use their own good judgement when choosing their children’ss toys this Christmas. * suggestions for toy selection; —Choose a toy appropriate for a child’s age and development. Some toys which are quite safe for older children can be harzardous to younger ones. -Avoid toys and games with small, parts, sharp points, and chords or strings over 12 inches in length for infants and toddlers. chemistry sets and toys, electrically-operated especially those which produce heat, for older children only. Do not allow a child to remove or replace electrical parts and be sure all electrical toys carry the Underwriters’ Laboratories (UL) seal of approval. —Avoid toys which produce excessive noise. Even cap pistols fired too close to a child’s ear can cause damage. —Check instructions. They should be easy to read and understand. Instruct your child in To aid parents in theii decisions.

The Hakke case reached the Supreme Court on the University’s appeal of a California Supreme Court decision which upheld Bakke’s claim that the admissions procedurfe “afforded preference on the basis of race to persons who by the University’s own standards were not as qualified for the study of medicine” as rejected non-preferred applicants. A lower California court has also supported Bakke’s claim, but as yet the medical school has not been ordered to admit him. | i 584 DELAWARE AVENUE, BUFFALO Monday, 13 December 1976 . The Spectrum .

Confusing bureaucracy One student tried to get a raise from the minimum $2.30 an hour when she realized that her co-workers were receiving $2.50 for doing the same work. When she approached her supervisor for a raise, she was told that Carter, at the Placement Office, was the person to see. “We don’t handle that,” she said. When the student went to see Carter, she learned that it was up to the supervisor to recommend raises. There are also cases where students of the same academic status receive different starting salaries. For example, some undergraduates begin with $2.30, while others start , at $2.50; in another case, a new law student Audience rides via ‘Indian’ I wait for a bus on Main Street'in downtown Buffalo, chilled in the shade of the Sidway Building.

Evidentally, the wage for law students was changed from $2.50 to $2.65 this year of which not all law students were aware. As a result, many law students are still getting the old wages of $2.50 while new students are being started at $2.65. Some students contend that the Placement Office should pay everyone the same rate since their initial grant from financial aid is based on need, thus leveling off financial statuses. Why should a student with a large grant be paid more on an hourly basis when he Wes Carter already had his grant determined by need, they ask. “It is not acceptable to base a student’s wage on his need or any other factor not basically related to his skills and abilities. The amount of a student’s need places an upper limit on the total amount he may earn vfnder the, program, but this total is as much a factor of the number of hours a week and number of weeks worked as it is of the hourly rate,” reports the manual. Yet Carter refuses to “obey the law to the letter” when it concerns the plight of needy students, he stressed, “I refuse to be unresponsive to students,” he' said, maintaining that if a student needs more money, he will review his specific case and “try to work something out.” Psychotherapy aids psychosomatic ills A combination of biofeedback, and relaxation training have been psychotherapy successfully applied in treatment of anxiety, muscle tension bruxism, Raynauds Syndrome and sexual problems. Over a period of six years Dr. Gene W. Brockopp, clinical associate professor of psychology at the State University of New York at Buffalo has had success with eighty percent of his patients suffering from tension or migrane headaches using this type of therapy. The treatment has provided relief for most of the five hundred individuals he has treated for stress-related problems. Recognize stress Brockopp who teaches a class each spring to SUNY at Buffalo medical students on the use of relaxation and biofeedback equipment in the treatment of psychosomatic disorders explains that it is beneficial for patients to release tension and recognize stressful situations. Therapy begins after the first diagnostic session. Brockopp and his patients usually meet twice weekly for hourly sessions which include and psychotherapy instruction on relaxation training. The patient is required to use “relaxation” tapes prepared by Brockopp at home. He stresses that the “effectiveness of treatment is largely up to the patient, and if he or she doesn’t want to cooperate in the effort it can’t help.” For this reason Brpckopp doesn’t treat patients looking for miracle cures. Most taken through patients are medical referral. Identify stress producers also uses an Brockopp record electromyograph to tension levels in the individual these patient. Essentially, measurements consist of feedback to the individual utilizing varying tones and visual signals. This method based on operant conditioning principles, can help unconscious stress identify producers. “Some hypertensive patients have learned to lower their blood pressure 15 points,” explained Brockopp. He also pointed out that these methods are not foolproof. Occasionally hypnosis and drug therapy must be resorted to. Some of Brockopp’s patients are more difficult to treat than others. Take for example a Type A personality whose characteristic trait is a highly competitive nature that forces him to be constantly engaged in some sort of activity. This type of personality is more difficult 'to change because he is not willing to “pay the price” of changing his lifestyles. Type B’s who are less hyperactive than Type A’s are more responsive to treatment because they are less prone to stress related ailments. “Most people are in between,” says Brockopp. Brockopp feels more physicians are beginning to the recognize benefits of combination therapy as opposed to other modes of treatment. �Commentary Surveillance of Communists others.

In this article the author offers general criticisms of to the and solutions ineffectiveness of state efforts. Drug Abuse Control Commission (DACC) has been operating in New York State since early 1967 when it was ostensibly by formed then Governor Rockefeller to combat the rising The tide of drug abuse. At the program’s height, tY re were twelve operating facilities for drug abuse treatment, seven in or around New York City. In the past eighteen nine months, facilities have permaently closed and drastic budget cuts have severely limited the efficiency of the remaining three. Our tax money is wasted in keeping open such large DACC facilities as Masten Park (located in Buffalo), because most of the space is simply no longer used. Since spring 1975, the entire day care program in Masten Park (designed to provide an alternative for ex-addicts to-hanging out on the strets)-has closed, leaving half the facility unused. The day care program consisted of various shops, including arts and crafts, music and sewing, along with a and fully equipped gym weightlifting apparatus. There was also a pingpong table and pool room. The program provided free lunches for the families of ex-addicts unable to find work. The day care facilities were used extensively by many addicts, and were quite useful in providing a chance for once-addicted persons to expand their interests (as in the music shop) and constructively use their time. Humane alternatives Instead of examing the existing program there and trying to revise it (yhich would have required some change in ideals), the entire facility was abandoned. While DACC still believes in “forced rehabilitation,” many small rehab centers have opened, House in including Argosy Syracuse, New York City’s Project Return, and the Narcotic Guidance Council (NGC), all of which provide counselling and other services. Both Argosy House and Project treat addicts in an Return extensive program geared towards return to the community. These communities have therapeutic more been successful in rehabilitating addicts than the larger state program in which 88 percent of the addicts treated a returned for further treatment. Unfortunately NGC, which was federally funded through Erie County, closed due to budget cuts last August. A more humane philosophy in drug treatment centers is less geared towards incarceration for several reasons, most importantly because no treatment program can be effective without the addict’s desire for help. Rapport possible The newer community based capsule before going to bed, justifying it by saying alcohol is legal and that he needs something to make him sleep. With this childish mentality present, legal drug abuse is easily rationalized by a drug dependent society. Respite the rhetoric, the real reason DACC facilities lock up an addict is because society won’t accept an open door facility for drug treatment. The two open door DACC facilities were both closed, one only eighteen monthsafter it opened. The excuse given was that too many addicts were running away from the facility. Page six .

The decisions to be made here are on prospective expressways, bus lines, and other forms of rapid transit and are indicative of a national controversy which involves business, government and environmental groups. The U.S. Department of Transportation announced in September the approval of a $269 million grant, to be supplemented by a $67 million New York State grant, for the development of a 6.4 mile light rail line to run mostly under Main Street between Memorial Auditorium and Beiley Avenue.

The issue is that while the Urban Mass Transit Administration has provided grants for new construction, operating deficits have been a major problem for many cities.

The Spectrum . Page seven �Editorial Bankrupt Regents plan Regents William A. Genrich's prediction of a $100-$200 annual increase in SUNY tuition would have been shocking in any other year. It is, sadly, only one of the first public statements on a required tuition increase that has been anticipated all year long. It was encouraging that Genrich also lent his personal support to the completion of the Amherst Campus. But his pointing out that this was not necessarily the majority opinion of the Board of Regents is indicative of their HONEl'WON position In fact, nothing Genrich said during his visit here indicated that either he or his colleagues on the Board of Regents have modified their misguided philosophy of educational funding. It included passing the burden of paying the cost of SUNY debt service on to the SUNY students. The policy also includes channeling the state s resources toward what is seen as the state s beleagured private schools, and shifting them away from what is also seen as an overexpanded SUNY system. The Regents' plan is to make the SUNY students pay, and pay dearly we will. Only Genrich and the other Regents, very few of whom have ever set foot in a public university, don't realize that SUNY is not just in the midst of a slowed of its physical plant, but a critical program retrenchment which could cripple the University for years. expansion Needed housing switch Guest Opinion Quinn.” Melvin then by Elic hagarey (Rising to the Sun) hang out with Indians . you want to hang out with Indians!

The Student Affairs Office has been at least somewhat more in touch with student needs than the distant cost-accounting of the Office of Finance and Management.

I am writing this letter for two important reasons. First, I’d like to offer a belated introduction of myself to all U.B. students, as newly elected President of I.R.C. I’d like to encourage any interested students, facility or administrators to express their feelings, complaints, or ideas which IRC may be able to assist them with. If we cannot aid you directly, we will connect you to the proper authority. Secondly, 1 would like to respond to The Spectrum article on November 17th “IRC Reps Seek Management.” The Change in Housing Inter-Residence Council is presently working on the proposal to shift Housing from the Division of Finance and Management to the Division of Student Affairs. The change is justified as a result of l.R.C.’s past difficulties with Housing personnel and partly as a result of the straight business approach of the Vice President for Finance and Management, Edward Doty. At the l.R.C. Main Body Meeting of November 11 th, the council endorsed by unanimous consent the switch of Housing to Student Affairs. As President of I.R.C., it is now my responsibility to investigate the situation. I will to convince students, gather facts necessary interested parties that the and other administrators transfer will benefit the dorm students. Research interviews with all interested parties have begun and a future article in The Spectrum will express the results of the findings. I’d like to ask the cooperation of air dorm students, past or present, to write l.R.C. and express any and all problems which they feel are important concerning Housing or its personnel. Were these problems rectified when reported? What are your feelings toward dorm life and your rights in the dorms? Thank you for all your responses. Please mail to l.R.C. Direction Committee, c/6 Eric Gould, E347 Richmond. © m Forever saying goodbye by Richard B. Bronson I remember the feeling all too well from my high school days, when my group of friends graduated and went off to college. Some took off for schools on the West Coast, others the East, and yet more to various points in between. I found myself in the middle of the country. It was a compromise. I didn’t know of a closer group of friends. Together we went through what we thought was our surge to maturity, and all that remained was making it on our own. True, that’s what our parents and teachers told us that college was all about. But we had already made it without them, but could we make it without each other** And like a show-box full of baseball cards dumped from the third floor onto the street, some of us landed far away, heads or tails, while others fell straight down. A few found themselves disposed On the gutters edge, gingerly avoiding the final outcome to their “Knock-the-Leaner” lives. It seemed so natural to go away, so important to wrest the binds, to flex the muscles and maybe even bite off more than we could chew. 1 guess we figured our personalities were more or less set, ready to be ready to STAND UP and sleep tested by strangers with all those new lovers and show off the cool that was sometimes taken for granted, but more Often seen through by the old friends who had once thrown-up .together after three drinks and still needed a couple of hits of Binaca to help conceal the tell-tale odor of as many hits of hash, before'having to “deal with” one’s parents. But we tricked each other’s grand scheme, as many of us ended up back together again. To reconnoiter when the going got tough, if you know what I mean. — ' Ah, but college played the final trick and like some instinctive drive (much like, 1 imagine, the stuff that makes salmon travel upstream to spawn and some men to put up their dikes while others would run and some mothers to cling fiercely to their babies in times of danger), it was again time to go- So they all say that the time has come to leave. Really. Really, upstream to spawn and some men to put up their dukes while others would The time has come. The time has really come to leave but why doesn’t leaving feel at all real? Because it’s not real, and we all knew it, and everyone knows it and everybody does it so it comes as no surprise when sanity isn’t discovered on the West Coast, or in some creative job or whatever. One by one my friends are leaving Buffalo and my time too is coming. Because it’s too damn cold in Buffalo, and too gray and ugly, and too stifling with too few job opportunities and all other things that are somewhere else but not here. It makes me wonder, though, when my friends will be happier (or even happy) —. when will I be if it’s not when I’m with the people I love happy most, the people I call my family. Will I forever be — saying goodbye to my family? One by one they left, and it seemed, as I say, so natural, until a friend’s drunken farewell party not my best friend but ended. She was a friend still a friend, and 1 left the party feeling pissed-off and resentful and hurt. Didn’t my friendship mean anything? Didn’t the combined love of all your firends mean anything? It did, and yet leaving it all was so much more, important. 1 learned that evening how my parents felt that day when they realized they had lost their son. And that lesson broke rny heart. Frank Laghezza, Jr. President, l.R.C. The issue of guns again To the Editor. Congratulations! I feel The Spectrum should be highly lauded for its newest column, Police Blotter. A detailed account of the ‘heinous’ crimes being committed on this campus is much needed. The reason I deem this necessary may be a novel one to most students, but should indeed be considered. A run out account of the minimal scope of dangers faced by our beloved brown shirts must emphasize the irpportance of keeping them unarmed. “Unarmed?” you say, “Who said anything about arming them?” Well, they (campus police) did; This is the issue utmost on the minds of our Campus Security, excuse me, University Police (whatever happened to the ‘new image’, fellas?). The idea of giving the guards the right to bear arms would surely bt; plausible to an administration which saw fit to first arm them with walkie-talkies which cost, according to one officer, $1300 apiece. The only stumbling block the administration might face would be an overwhelming dissent from those who, the student ironically, would be put in danger populace. I shudder to think of the consequences faced by the student whose windshield was smashed by an irresponsible officer, had that black guard been armed with a weapon more lethal than a China article —‘conjecture ’ To the Editor. 1 would like to comment on Rob Cohen’s article on the gang of four in China published in Monday’s The Spectrum. The article gives a very incorrect picture and an inadequate analysis of the recent political developments in the People’s Republic of China. Mr. Cohen talks about the recent struggles as if they were struggles between individuals: between Muo Kuo-feng vs Chang Chun-chiao, Chiang Ching, Wang Hung-wen apd Yao Wen-yuan. He fails to realize that such struggles are in fact manifestations of some deep contradictions within the Chinese Communist Party, a continuation of the two-line struggle that has been taking place since, the founding of the Communist Party of China in the twenties, culminating in the struggle against Lui Shao-shi, Lin Piao, and Teng Hsiao-peng during the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. With regard to the former deputy premier Teng Hsiao-peng, the campaign to beat back the right-deviationist wind, resulted in the dismissal of Teng from all offices, was not ignited by the death of Premier Chou En-lai. It was ignited by Teng’s attempts to reverse the correct verdicts of the Great Cultural Revolution, It is not impossible, that Teng Msiao-peng may once again be-reinstated. However, such reemergence, like the last time, would have to he based on Chairman Mao Tse-tung’s policy of “cure the disease and save the patient.” It would simply mean that Teng has recognized his errors, has done serious self-criticism, and has completed the process of reeducation. Mr. Cohen’s conjecture, that Teng was behind the purge of the gang of four, and that llua Kuo-feng is merely a puppet of Teng, has absolutely no factual or political basis. It merely shows Mr. Cohen’s high level of imagination. Peter Yuem, Chairman GSA Foreign Student Affairs Committee Vice President China Study Group — nightstick. Fellow students, beware! There may not be enough time between semesters for the administration to railroad this mandate upon us without our knowledge, but surely, September could see those with the talking jackets in possession of a more deadly toy. Kevin J. Whalen note: Your point is worthwhile. The Spectrum prints the Police Blotter to benefit the student body by making them aware of the nature and level of crime on campus. Oj course, a certain amount of positive exposure for the University Police results. The Spectrum continues to oppose the arming of the University Police under any circumstance. Editor's Heinous spectacle To the Editor Late in the evening of December 9, 1976, 1 was witness to a spectacle more heinous and repulsive to my sensibilities than any occurrence my memory can supply. Whilst savoring a frosty ale in the seedy Wilkeson Pub, I observed a group of uniformed University policemen enter the premises. They strode directly to one table in particular and directed the people seated there outside, into an adjoining hall. The men in brown relieved said people of their ID cards and strenuously admonished the three students for “harrasment” of our University police force. This stems from an incident which occurred at the Amherst campus during the month of October. At that time an automobile belonging to a student had its windshield broken by the nightstick of a University policeman while the student was behind the wheel with two passengers in the auto, ami while the ear was moving! The Spectrum (that most impotent journal which is forever bemoaning the passing of the awareness and action of the sixties) ran a half-assed article about the incident which was most juvenile and ignorant of facts in its content. It seems that the students were driven to humorous outbursts upon seeing the perpetrator ot the aforementioned incident. For this they were treated in a most ignominious fashion, and with arrest. I counted five uniformed and three plainclothes policemen in the hall. This indicates a concerted effort on their part to intimidate not only those students, but the entire threatened student body of this University. To dispel the notion that this action arose from hostile feelings of one patrolman, may I point out there was a University police lieutenant in charge of their group.

Communists needed now, nor have there ever been, Movement and became head of security there. Many writers have pointed out the similarities between the FBI and the CIA. Philip Agee, former CIA agent who quit and wrote a book, Inside the Company: CIA Diary exposed the disruptive and illegal activities of the CIA. He wrote that “the killings at Kent Slate and Jackson State show clearly enough that sooner or later our counter-insurgency methods would be applied at home.” The CIA has been alleged to have participated in the plot that lead to the assassination of Chile’s Allende and the Congo’s Patrice Lumumba. It is public knowledge that the CIA, along with Mafia hitmen, attempted, on several occasions, to assassinate Cuba’s Fidel Castro. , Abolish FBI spying As the rest of the world closes its doors to I.T.T., Standard Oil, General Electric and other major corporations, capitalists will monopoly the more and more on the American people. While things are calm now, people are aware of the growing economic and social deterioration.

Philip Agee faucet is turned off, it becomes rustier and more difficult to start up again in the future,” said Cerabone. Price echoed his concern over leadership, questioning whether the City government would be capable of handling a massive housing if the construction program federal government provided the needed money. Profit is key Profit is the key to housing construction and rehabilitation, according to Cerabone. What the federal government has done in the past is provide subsidies for the developers or to the poor. Even under these circumstances, “ppor people are excess baggage because there is no profit in building for them,” according to Bill Gaiter. He cited the rapid change in the Ellicott District from 'iQbO to 1970, the large decrease in population, the exodus of white families, a significant decline in the number of housing units, and the rise in the amount of vacant land illustrating the desperate housing situation of the poor and black East Side community. While Mayor Stanley Makowski’s “War on Blight” has been aimed at demolishing abandoned structures, only 190 units of housing are presently slated for federal funding. One hundred of these units will be built in the Bailey-Lovejoy section, and another 90 scattered single family and town house units for low income persons. Buffalo had originally proposed the construction of 926 units. Private organizations are also seeking federal funding for proposed projects entailing the construction of 626 units, mostly on the East Side. No new federally subsidized housing has been construbted’ since Nixon’s impoundment of funds in 1972. Since the “War on Blight” began, $2,795,477 has been spent to demolish units throughout Buffalo. The Courier Express said some city officials that admitted that the existing city ordinances, if enforced, were the sufficient to force homeowners to keep their properties safe and livable. In another article, George Wyatt refused to estimate the number of new units each year to replace the lost stock. Ellicott District Councilman George K. Arthur “ ... estimated that there is a need between 2000 to 3000 per year.. No decent housing countered George Wyatt Gaiter’s emphasis on low-income housing, insisting that there is presently ‘‘more of a housing crisis for middle and upper income people” unable to find “good decent housing that will’ keep them in the community.” , “If only the housing problems of . the poor are dealt with in the City, then they will be the only people left.” He agreed with Gaiter’s statement last week on television that soon blacks will . dominate the City’s population and government. However, according to Wyatt, they will be heirs to an “impoundment camp” if low income housing is concentrated solely within the City bounds and the resources of the middle class are not present. Evans said “that David to the additional, incentives well-off’ must be provided so the middle class will want to move back to the City; at the same time. He felt, however, that “the geographic choice of the poor can be broadened” to lessen their concentration within the central city and break down the walls around the city line. Evans noted the lack of cooperation and coordination between organizations and agencies dealing with housing at various scales. Gaiter then pointed to the lack pf investment in the City by the banks which choose to invest in more secure areas such as the South and Southwest. “It is business as usual for the banks” which, unlike all levels of government, have the real money, according to Price. ’ Cerabone felt that cooperation and coordination of agencies, especially HUD, is particularly slow. As an example, he cited a request for an application for funding a BUILD project in the Masten District submitted six months ago. “It will probably take another six months for it to be funded,” he said. Price was optimistic, seeing the possibility for slow cooperation and organizational changes with the new Carter administration. He saw the new administration as a testing ground for the traditional model of the housing system and its links to the economic system. continues: “American capitalism, based as it is on exploitation of the poor, with its fundamental motivation in personal greed, simply cannot without a survive without force secret police force.

Page eleven �More female trainers needed here The University of Buffalo has women’s athletic teams in field volleyball, tennis, hockey, bowling and swimming, basketball. Despite the large number of women athletes, there had been only two female trainers until recently. in 1974 former Coordinator of Cindy Women’s Athletics Anderson felt that fenrale trainers were necessary because women athletes may feel uncomfortable with male trainers. There was also the problem oif putting too much of a work load on the head trainer Women trainers hired Last year Tainiko Thompson, a University of Buffalo graduate with a B.A.. in physical therapy, became this school’s first female trainer. Before taking the job, Thompson had become interested in the athletic training after playing on the varsity volleyball four then, team.

The scores in that match were by no means encouraging for Buffalo bowlers who lost the match by a total of 362 pins. ECC had previously beaten Buffalo at the Western New York Invite.

One of the reasons for Ruddy’s consistently good bowling is her experience in team bowling. Ruddy, a senior, has bowled in a high school league as well as a women’s league in Utica. She attended Mohawk Community College where she bowled in two tournaments. Experience is something the rest of the team lacks. Only four of the thirteen bowlers are returning from last year. This inexperience was a major factor in their defeat at the hands of ECC. “The lanes were oily, so the balls didn’t move the same,’’ said coach Jane Poland, “An experienced bowler could have adjusted to the change jn conditions.” The Bulls were also weakened by the absence of two of their starters who had to attend classes. The scores of the other starting bowlers were very poor. Not one of them bowled above 150 in a game. Jane Nowaczyk was the next highest bowler for the Bulls with scores of 128, 146 and 122. Liz Wolszczak came in third for Buffalo with scores of 132, 115 and 101. Both women bowled far below their average but did well in comparison to the rest of the / team. Wrestling Strong Bulls lose to Penn by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer Invading Clark Hall for the first time, Penn State trounced the wrestling Bulls 30—9 on Saturday, before a near-capacity crowd. The Bulls were able to holrf their ground quite well against the superior Lions for the first five matches, but found themselves in despair as each of the remaining five matches were completed. Buffalo’s Tony Oliveri and Penn State’s Ray Frantz opened the meet. In a close and cautious match, Oliveri found himself down 5—4 with five seconds remaining. In a quick display of talent, Oliveri reversed his opponent and gained control to go ahead 6—5, but the final score became 6—6 as the visiting Lion received one point riding time. Next, Jim Earl of Penn State But topped Ray Pfeifer, Buffalo’s young freshmen, Doug Tingue again brought cheers from the partisan Buffalo fans. Against Kepler, junior Rich Tingue match and controlled the eventually won, 6—3, almost pinning Kepler in the process. In the Bulls only other victory, Tundo sophomore Gene manhandled the Lions Terry & (.iiK*' Shultz, 17—7. “I was ready and everything was working,” Tundo said. “1 know what I have to do to score and 1 just have to sharpen up my moves.” That was it for Buffalo. Leading 9—5, they never scored again. Buffalo’s Bob Martineck took a 4—3 lead, but Bill Vollrath, the Eastern Wrestling Leage Champion, gained control in the second period, 7—5. Martineck was able to score additional points and tighten the contest, but he fell short by the margin 11—9. At this point, the Bulls were still lihead in team scoring, 9—8, but Penn State’s best wrestlers were coming up. From the outset of the match between Buffalo’s Kirk Anderson and the Lion’s Dave Becker, it was apparent that this was not one of Anderson’s better days. In fact, Anderson was quoted as saying after his 5-0 defeat, “I shan’t wear the goat horns again,” meaning that the r co-captain Bull will again regain top form and become the menacing grappler he was last year. Against the Lions’ Ashley Swift, Buffalo’s Jeff Wheeler was devasted 12—1 while Penn State’s lone senior and captain, Jerry White displayed the talent which Wine in.

The Lions notched a consecutive pin when big Bill Bertrand was turned loose on the Bulls Kurt Linske. Linske held his own quite well during the first period, but found the going tough in the second as Bertrand notched the pin at the midway point. In the teams’ final contest of the day, Buffalo’s Rich Bopp and Penn State’s Sam Sallitt went head to head, with Sallitt coming off on top, 4-0, thus giving the final team score of 30—9, in favor of Penn State. After the dual meet was completed, Buffalo coach Ed Michael said, “for the most part, we did what I expected we’d do.” He added, “A few matches could have gone either way and that made a difference.” Regardless of the meets final outcome, Michael was happy with his team’s performance. “Otir boys never quit and thdy kept on hustling. As a group, I was pleased with their performance. Penn State is a good team and they did what I thought they would.”_ But what about the other side of the coin? Penn State coach Bill Koll said that, “we anticipated a good tough match with you [Buffalo], but we knew that we had a better team.” Koll went on to say that “this is not demeaning, but when you have the recruiting capabilities such as the ones we possess, naturally, We should have the better team.” Buffalo Bob co-captain Martineck furthered Koll’s point by stating that, “for a school that doesn’t give athletic scholarships, we’re one of the best schools in the nation. We have to resolve some problems, but we’re a better team than the meet showed. By the time the tournaments come around, we’ll be ready.” — TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14th at 5 pm —Steven M.

'Buffalo is now 1-4, while Howard extended its record to 4-0. The Bulls were down by as many as sixteen points during the second half, as Howard, despite being in severe foul trouble, was hitting 59 percent of their shots, compared to just 33 percent for the Bulls. playing were too “We conservatively,” said Buffalo coach Leo Richardson. “We were on aggressive enough not defense.” Forward Jerald Glover had fourteen points at halftime for Howard, while guard Ellsworth Hart was able to penetrate quite often, socring on all five of his shots with a little left-handed hook shot that barely cleared the outstretched hands of Buffalo’s defenders. New ballgame Things were vastly different in the second half. Led by senior forward Eric Spence, Buffalo began to come back. “We did what we were supposed' to do in the second half,” Richardson noted. “It was like night and day ' we played- two different — games.” The Bulls began running the fast break, and the full court press began to stifle Howard’s offense. “That’s the way I’d like them to play for forty minutes.” However, the comeback was still very slow. With just 3:31 remaining, Howard still held a ten point lead. Spence tipped in a rebound to cut Howard’s lead to eight. Then, Howard went into a stall, but seconds later they turned the ball over to Buffalo. Spence came back with a five-foot bank shot, and then Larry Jones hit a jump shot from the freethrow line for Buffalo to cut the margin to four. Jones was also fouled on the play, but missed the bonus toss. After Gerald Gaskins hit a freethrow for Howard, George Cooper scored for Buffalo, giving Howard an 85-83 lead with 1:12 left. Gaskins stepped on the baseline while inbounding the ball, giving Buffalo a chance to tie the game. The Bulls took their time and set up a play. Cooper hit Spence with a pass along the left baseline, and Spence swished it through, to tie the game with forty seconds to go. Bulls back on top Mike Nettles then fouled Spence as the latter grabbed a rebound. Spence hit the first freethrow to give Buffalo its first lead since it had a 6-4 lead early in the game. Spence missed the second shot, but the rebound went out of bounds off a Howard player. Mf/Ail/ FOR DISCOUNTS OFFERED TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF . THE STUDENT DIRECTORY All Buffalo had to do was hang on to the ball for eighteen seconds, but Howard had other plans. Jones was fouled by Smith, and missed the freethrow. Nettles came down with the rebound, and Bisons coach A.B. Williamson called for a timeout, with just nine seconds left. Howard’s inbounds pass went to Gaskins behind the midcourt line. He moved the ball up, and then fed Smith with a bounce pass. Smith’s slightly off-balance shot from the left side of the key swished through the net, giving Howard an 87-86 lead, with three seconds remaining. Richardson called time out, and set a play, but Sam Pellom’s inbounds pass went over Jones’ head, into the hands of a Howard by Paige Miller player freethrows which killed Buffalo. The same thing was in part responsible for Buffalo’s double overtime Iqss to Niagara.

Eric’s kept on working he didn’t stop.” Paige Miller Once again, it was — Hockey Bulls stomp Cortland in easy play by Larry Am oros Special to The Spectrum “Dragons are a myth,” proclaimed the small sign hanging from the balcony in the Tonanwanfia Sports Center last Saturday night, and the Buffalo ice hockey team took those words to heart, as they stomped the Cortland State Dragons, 10-4, in a Division II matchup. The Bulls took no time in showing the Dragons that they were oat to kill, and had built a 6-0 lead after just one period of play. Backed by Mike Dixon’s first period natural hat trick (three goals in succession), the Buffalo skaters swarmed all over Cortland and outshot them 22-7 in the opening frame. For Dixon the game was a good one, as he not only bagged three goals, ,but he also threw his weight around for the course of the game, and fired a whopping 16 shots at goal during the contest. “It freaked me out,” said Dixon of the hat trick afterwards; “1 work hard enough to get just one goal, but three in one period, that's unbelievable.” Bulls center Rick Costello added two goals of his own, along with two assists. Cos set up Buffalo’s first goal, a 70-foot Jack Kaminska slapshot that caught starting Cortland netminder Dan Raponi reading the signs instead of watching the play. Dragons breathe fire But things were not all rosy for the Bulls, as they seemingly lost some of their drive after building up the early lead, and played Cortland tp a standstill over the last two periods. Each team scored one goal in tjie second period and three in the third, a fact which had Buffalo coach Ed Wright somewhat concerned. “We played the last two periods evenly. We played real good in the first and then went into oiir shell. The reason for this remains to be seen; I think it's more ot a mental thing,” said Wright. “We played really good in the first period, and seemed kind of satisfied with that. We just did what we had to [after the first period],” said winning Buffalo goalie Johnny Moore. What the Bulls had to do was kill off an array of third period penalties called by the officials, in what previously had been a rather unblemished game. “I never saw such a bunch of BS in my life. I can’t believe some of the stuff they called,” complained Moore. “What they [the officials] let go in the first, they called in the third,” commented Wright. Who belongs? “Overall, I’m happy with the victory, but not satisfied. They (Cortland] played us even for two periods, and they don’t even belong on the ice with us,” added the Bulls’ mentor. One team that most certainly does belong on the ice with the Bulls is Bowling Green University, who visit Buffalo for a pair of games this weekend. Last year the Division I powerhouse demolished Buffalo 13-1, and 15-3 in a pair of games, that saw the Bulls outshot by a total of 148—35. So, can the Bulls realistically beat a team like Bowling Green with all factors being considered? Ed Wright says yes. Johnny Moore says he thinks so, and Mike Dixon doesn't really care to think about it. "Certainly we can beat Bowling green. If we can pressure their defense for three periods there’s no doubt that wc can." said Wright. We could give a pro team trouble if we play three solid periods of hockey, not a half period here, and a half there. In the past we've had good periods against Bowling Green, but we can’t afford to make mistakes and be burned by them.” “I do not see why, if we play three solid periods, we can’t be satisfied with fhe effort we put out,” laughed Moore, sidestepping the issue. “Really though, there’s no reason why we can’t beat them.” Dixon’s feelings can be put into perspective very quickly, as he said: “This is one game I’m Just not looking forward to playing.” Sports Editor When someone not, connected with spo;ts thinks of the life of a modern athlete, he thinks of glamour, screaming crowds and travelling. Having recently travelled with Buffalo’s basketball team, I can personally tell you, it’s all true. There is nothing as glamorous as getting up at 5:30 in the morning to go to Worcester, Massachusetts, to play Holy Cross unless it’s getting the next morning to travel back to Buffalo. Think of it the up at sun wasn’t up yet, the temperature was a toasty fifteen degrees, and 1 was on my way to Worcester. The team had an hour between flights at LaGuardia Airport, and Sam Pellom, the team’s center and the nation’s leading rebounder last year, decided to discuss some business with me. You see, I was not only a reporter, but also the team's statistician; Pellom and 1 already had reached an agreement regarding blocked shots, whereby if he felt that 1 might not have seen him block a shot, he-was to let me know as he passed the scorers table on his way downcourt. (Coach Leo Richardson later vetoed this arrangement.) — Another agreement “Paige,” Sam said, “are you going to keep track of rebounds tonight?” “Yes, I am.” “Well, since tonight’s game is on national television, 1 figure I should .get twenty rebounds.” “Now, wait a minute, Sam. Tonight’s game is only on regional television. That’s only worth seventeen rebounds.” “No, TV is TV. 1 still gotta get my twenty.” “Okay, Sam. So I have to watch your rebounds, George (Cooper] wants me to watch his assists. Is there anyone else 1 should watch?” “Yeah! You gotta watch all five guys out there.” “Oh. Is that how it works?” “Do you want to borrow my glasses?” Our flight from LaGuardia to Worcester was short and pleasant. 1 can’t tell you what a thrill it was to approach the Worcester airport. My first reaction was, “Why are we landing at this farm?” To be honest, the Greyhound station in Syracuse looks as much like an airport as the Worcester airport does. Lunchtime humor The team settled into their hotel, and then went down to lunch. By this time, 1 had realized that being a reporter, I was an outsider, and would probably be the brunt of many jokes. (In the absence of a reporter, the team usually picks on the trainer, Paul Schwartz. He tells the story of how The Spectrum once left his last name out of an article by accident, and for the rest of the season, the soccer team referred to him as The Spectrum mistakenly did “Paul of Tonawanda”) I also realized that I was one of two white people on the trip (Schwartz was the other), and as Leo Richardson entered the room where we were to have lunch, he said to me, “It’s nice to have some white boys along. They really brighten up the room.” We sat down to a lunch of chitlins and black-eyed peas, while the jokes continued. Larry we all look alike, you Jones called Schwartz and myself “twins" know. “Now you know what discrimination is all about,” said Ed Johnson. Then there was the game. Since a full report of the game appeared in Friday’s The Spectrum, 1 won’t comment further on the game itself. However, the atmosphere at the game was something I hadn’t seen in a long time. Here were 3,800 screaming people and they wouldn’t stop screaming even when their team was up by forty points. — - - Traditional goodies Then there were all the traditional trappings which make college basketball an event. There were thirteen pretty cheerleaders who did their best to keep the crowd cheering, there was a band (a little off key, but so what?) and there was a “mascot” a fellow dressed up like Santa Claus who put the hex on Buffalo during time outs. This was college basketball the way it was supposed to be. And drat it all. I couldn't enjoy it because 1 was on the wrong side. The crowd even gave Pellom a nice hand when he fouled out. It's been a long time since I’ve seen a crowd with that much class. After the game, both Richardson and Pellom were upset that I had given Pellom only two blocked shots. “I can’t win,” I sighed to myself, and let it go at that. The team got to sleep after midnight, and when the wake-up call came at 5 the next morning, you could hear the expletives echoing throughout the hotel. However, we made it to the Worcester airport in plenty of time for our flight, only to find that the flight had been caneelled due to thick fog. It seems that the schlamiel who designed the Worcester airport put it on the top of the biggest hill in the area, to be nearer to the planes, I guess. Anyway, the top of the hill was shrouded in mist, while the rest of the area was clear. We had to take a seventy-five minute bus ride to Boston (pronounced Bahhhhston), and finally returned to Buffalo. It was an interesting (and glamorous) trip, and I can honestly say that 1 was glad to have gone along.

It was issued October 21. when the on Undergraduate Committee of that body circulated a paper citing alleged discrepancies contact and Help from Albany University’s Central The the Administration recognizes threat we face. Our colleagues in Albany are trying to protect us. The June 30th policy is, in part, designed to do this. It attempts to requirements of meet the accountability and uniformity, without being unduly restrictive. There are valid acadmic reasons for SUNY Central’s desire for a measure of compatibility among its units; and we believe we can meet that desire without sacrificing our four credit/four course system. An important argument, which SUNY Central has accepted, is that faculty workload (teaching load) and credit hour/contact hour relationships are separate issues; and we intend to continue to defend the basic validity of our curricular structure on academic grounds. We do, nevertheless, recognize the need to examine carefully between Ian’s extensive grey matter aided him in his decision to run. “1 thought it up and then my brain told my nerves 1 wanted to be president,” he explained.

Flyers and faith The juvenile politician will not require federal campgain funds for the task at hand as did many fellow aspirants during the 1976 elections. Four dollars to be invested in flyers will be the extent of Locklear's budget for the campaign. Faith will also play a big part in the effort, “I’m going to get people to vote for me by asking them,” he explained. Ian’s mother realizes that her son does not fit the everyday, run of the mill student president stereotype and admits he is not a perfect child. “I guess fie is kind of spoiled,” she said. “Sometimes he has problems getting along with his peer group, although he gets along real well with our age group.” Ian, it seems, may have problems getting along with executives his own-age because he feels he doesn’t belong with them. “1 don’t want to be a child,” he said. “I want to be fifteen. I don’t like to do what may parents tell me to do.” When he does eventually age. he intends to advance to bigger and better things. “When 1 get big,” he explained, “I want to be a fireman.” Page four The Spectrum .

The second floor was for thirty-five people, men were yet seventy nine crowded into the same space. The rooms were not only crowded past capacity with six and twelve rooms squeezed men into intended for half that amount, but they were filthy and so diinly lit that reading was almost impossible. There were only four sinks and five toilets, with a mere three workable showers for the entire floor of seventy nine persons. Two of the stalls were so revolting that I wore slippers in designed Special to The Spectrum Editor's note: This is the third in a series of four articles on New York State’s drug rehabilitation program. The author is a former inmate in one of the state's rehabilitation centers, and is now a student at this University. Masten Park is one of New York State’s three remaining drug rehabilitation centers and is responsible for all upstate male certified drug abusers. This is an account of my impressions of Masten Park based on the six months (from March to September 1975) that I spent there. It is, of course, subjective to a great extent, though my descriptions of various areas and incidents are as accurate as possible. Masten Park has been described as “the -hospital of the Drug Commission Abuse Control (DACC)” in several pamphlets issued throughout the past six years or so. I would like to mention that I have talked with people that actually thought they were being sent to a hospital, and not a rehabilitation center for When 1 arrived at Masten Park 1 was taken to the admittance room to be photographed and issued a pair of pajamas prior to entering the Dextoxification Unit (DOS). Detox was so crowded that it seemed impossible to slay there for long without trying to escape. One of the first inmates ,to talk with me boasted of raping someone (in this, an all-male facility) in the rehabilitation unit several days earlier. 1 remember that instead of being charged with rape he was simply transferred to another facility. 1 was in D.O.S. for three weeks during which 1 college with several spoke certified as ' drug students dependent, although two of them had never used more than marijuana. In this three-week period I heard many stories about the Commission by both officers and inmates. Though all of them could not be given complete credence, rapidly became thing one apparent; no one was satisfied policies with or DACC administrative views concerning everything from treatment conditions to CSEA (employee’s union) hearings. The situation growing. The entire scene was totally but to further demoralizing, complicate matters there was absolutely no unity between inmates. A complex pecking order existed, starting within the rooms and extending to .the floor as a whole. In each of these eight units, there was generally a leader that determined internal order, and a Scapegoat used to vent frustrations. Unbearable tensions From the room order there evolved a coinciding floor order, defined by extremely intense black-white conflict, and the competition by several men trying to rule the floor at the same time. The picture changed constantly as releases and admissions occurred weekly, and most of the fights and arguments developed from the changeovers. The tension at such times was unbearable, and one spark could have started a serious flare-up, especially if a fight between a white and black took place. I remember at least three instances in which each together gathered room make-shift vyeapons to defend against a riot, though such a tragedy never happened while I was there. This social condition in the unit was only the worst problem to be dealt with. Also of great importance was that there was so little to do. On the weekends it was even worse since even the gym was closed during the day, and the entire population was •locked on Ihe floor. At Times like these I walked up and down the hall, trying to find an interesting conversation or card game. The boredom was often overwhelming, and combined with the constant noise (which was so bad at times 1 had to shout across a table to be heard), overcrowding and the general appearance of the place of the hypocrisy the Com m ission’s “rehabilitation” became obvious. Officers aggravate The officers’ attitudes seemed to reflect the general conditions described.

The author, who the FBI has observed for seven years, argues that anti-communism is used as a justification for the violation of civil liberaties and the destruction of progressive organizations and movements. by Paul Krehbiel 'Contributing editor Once the FBI had established with the Young League Workers Liberation (YWLL), it was a short step in their eyes, to link me to the Coomunist Party. Several pages in my file included descriptions of the Communist Party USA (CPUSA). On one page they wrote that the “CPUSA was described on 5/28/42. by the then-Attorney General as . . . from the time of its inception in 1919 to the my association ‘ present time, is an organization that believes in, advises, advocates and teaches the overthrow by and force violence of the Government of the United States’.” In the November 12, 1976 issue of the Daily Worker, a national newspaper published by the Communist Party, Washington reporter Tim Wheeler wrote that Attorney General Edward Levi ordered the FBI to stop spying on all groups except the Communist Party, even while admitting that the Communist Party had not engaged in any illegal activities. Spying continues Levi admitted in a memo to the Washington Post that the Communist Party “is not engaged in activities likely to result in violence.” Wheeler reported. Wheeler charged Levi with trying to split opposition to COIN T F L P R O the growing the FBI’s (Counter Intelligence Program) with the rise of anti-communism. Wheeler maintained that Levi’s attempt to appear make it that the will program COINTELPRO only against continue the Communist Party, will provide the FBI with the cover to continue spying on anyone it likes. The COINTELPRO program, started in 1956, was first launched against the Communist Party, but was also used to carry out spying and subversive activities against other progressive groups. Thu FBI had been in the spy-business since its inception in 1-930. The Socialist Workers Party has brought a $37 million damage suit against the FBI for 40 years ,pf surveillance and harrassment of its members. Jay legal Miller. a representative of the American Civil Liberties Union explained that “the Communist Party is not engaged in criminal activity, and spying on the party is a violation of their civil liberaties.” Frank Wallick, editor of the United Auto Workers Washington Report, and author of the book. The American Worker: An Endangered Species, rsaid: "I was a target of this sort of surveillance myself when the UAW was striking the Kholer and Corporation what they gathered on me was absolute tripe." What is at red-baiting. here is It is a method of Ethel and Julius Rosenberg, convicted during the anti-Communist hysteria of the McCarthy period, were executed despite worldwide appeals for clemancy creating mythical a monster, which is then alleged to be behind every movement for progressive social change The mass media. with corporation owners dominating its Board of Trustees, plays a special role in this. James Aronson, in The Press and the Cold War cites countless examples of it, and , noted the explanation that Abraham L. Pomerantz, Deputy Chief counsel to the (J.S. prosecution staff at Nuremburg gave, as quoted in the Protestant magazine, December 18, 1947: “The approach, copied from the Nazi’s works this way: The press and radio first lay down a terrific barrage against the Red Menace. Headlines without a shred of substance shriek of atom bomb, spies, or plots to overthrow the government, of espionage, of high treason, and of other blood curdling crimes. We are now ready for the second stage: The pinning the label of ’.‘Red’’ on indiscriminately all opposition.” That’s exactly what the execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, the jailing of many and the blacklisting of thousands. Of course the government and newspapers have been practicing anti-communism since the days of Marx and Engels. Most recently, we have heard of the blood-bath that the Vietnamese Communists were supposed to have unleashed, but didn’t, and that the Soviet Union is threatening our security by escalating the arms race, which isn’t true either. the Smokescreen first ■ The anti-war demonstrators were called “communists,” as were the civil rights organizers and the CTO organizers before them.

Travel (Karen Balaban. agent) have signs up for their Christmas charter bus to Port Authority already. I'd like to detail my Hempstead Thanksgiving-break experience with them. The bus was scheduled to pick us up outside ot the Nassau Colisseum at 3 p.m. on Sunday. November 28 for the return trip to Buffalo. A bus was there, but the driver’s orders were to pick up a different charter group of people and he would not let us board; we were told to wait. At 4:00. several of the people waiting called Greyhound, all receiving different stories: a bus had been sent out at 3:15 and woidd arrive shortly: we should iiave gotten on the first bus: they had never heard ot us. The alleged 3:15 bus never materialized. At 5:00. we called again. We were then told that they would try to send another bus out to us. By this time, it had started to rain; we were left standing on an unsheltered concrete island in the middle of the parking lot, afraid of going inside of the Colisseum for tear of missing the bus. At 6:00, three hours lute, the bus pulled up. The driver had gone to Port Authority first. Those that boarded there asked him where the people from the Colisseum were. The driver knew — The Binghamton example There were some heartening signs for proponents of the four-course load this week. SUNY Central's acceptance of justification provided by SUNY Binghamton of its four-course load apparently showed supporters of the four-course load here that they can still act -effectively. Speakers at Tuesday's Faculty Senate meeting wondered if there was some way to distribute relevant documents from Binghamton which might help write temporary justification or defense of our course load. Although there is divisiveness over the course load issue, it was hard not to get the feeling of at least some unanimity among faculty that compliance with the SUNY mandate was not the way to jettison an educational system whose value about us, but after persistent questioning from the passengers, called in to Greyhound. They told him to come out to Colisseum to get us, So, it was by fluke that we got a bus at all, We finally becauseof our late pulled into Buffalo at 6 a.m. departure, we ran into bad weather. I called Barry of B.J. Travel and told him what happened. He told me that the man at Greyhound in charge of chartering was on vacation for a week, but offered to give me the man’s name and phone number so that I could speak to him myself. 1 explained that I felt this was his responsibility as organizer of the tour, and asked him to call me back as he didn't call me. He once again told me to call the Greyhound representative myself and apply pressure; I once again explained my position. He promised to call me back the next day: need I say that he never called? The entire foul-up of the busses was due to gross mismanagement on the part of B.J. Travel. How can SA Travel allow such irresponsible people to operate nothing In the hJilor - under their auspices? Fly. drive, hitch to New York, but skip B.J. Travel. Donna Rosen here is still relatively uncertain Defend Ken Johnson “By defending Ken Johnson Africa: the are we defending ourselves." It's nothing new. Two years ago this campus rang with shouts of "Attica is all of us," and due in part to the great efforts of students on this campus, most of the charges against the Attica Brothers were dropped. But the State had, in fact, indicted 60 unarmed, mostly black inmates essentially because someone had to be tried after an incident in which 48 people had been shot to death. The charges were finally dropped, not out of sudden feelings that justice should be done, but because after five years of controversy, it became impossible to blame the guards' shootings on the black defendants. The case of Ken Johnson's rape trial is strikingly reminiscent. After several similar rapes in the downtown area last year, a black man was finally arrested and charged with any arrest the crimes. Having clamored for an arrest downtown businessmen were satisfied: customers could shop downtown secure in the knowledge that the rapist was locked up. — But Ken Johnson bore no — danger of intervention increased. This resulted I'd the I'.dilDf Thank you tor your timely coverage of the struggle in Southern Africa, the articles and the editorial Dec. I raised many key questions about’ U.S.' policy. The Ford administration very nearly dragged the United States into another Vietnam War last fall. While Americans were encouraged by the media to view the MPLA forces as Soviet puppets, die-hard cold warrior Henry Kissinger beat the drum for increased involvement. The domino sernario was trotted out again, as Ford warned of the "profound implications of our inactivity in Angola would have for our own security. The plain truth was Kissinger and Ford were lying. It’s extremely logical for African liberation movements' to request Soviet aid to fight imperialism when western corporations provide the material for their oppressors. The United States. Germany. France and Fngland continued supplying Portugal with weapons under the NATO Treaty all those years when Portugal was fighting its colonial wars. Western powers saw Angola. Mozambique. Guinea. Bissau and the other African countries as an "integral part” of Portugal. The U.S. didn't become concerned about freedom in Southern Africa until Kissinger found out that Marxists were winning in Angola, potentially Africa’s richest nation. Kissinger increased U.S. military aid to neocolonial forces in Angola long before Soviet or Cuban aid was in the destruction of the Angolan economy and an unnecessary loss of life. But this took place because Kissinger had made secret assurances to Prime Minister John Vorster in South Africa for support to South Africa’s invasion last fall. Now it becomes increasingly clear that the same thing may happen in Zimbobwe. The freedom fighters of ZANU could win a military victory next year. But Kissinger has come to rescue white rule with a neocolonialist disguise. If the Zimbabweans reject his racist plan to insure white control will the U.S. intervene? Smith seems to think so on the basis of his discussions with Henry the K. Thus far, Kissinger has remained silent on the attacks against civilians in Mozambique, a bad sign. He claims that “progress” is being made in Namibia, even while the racist Vorster regime increases its repression' in Namibia. The U.S. also continues to veto imposing an arms embargo against South Africa because of its barbarous actions in Namibia. Where has Kissinger supported self determination in Southern Africa? Lastly. I should remind everyone that this is the third anniversary of Kissinger’s “peace is at hand” statement on Vietnam. The Vietnamese remember the December I 1 carpet bombing to which their nation was subjected after that statement. Case )?.} closed. Brian Land resemblance to the circulated composite sketch.

When necessary, it will fall randomly. To defend ourselves, we must defend Kenneth Johnson.

Besides running ads that promote the sexual exploitation of women, printing uninteresting and irrelevant articles, and proclaiming that “the left is dead,” the paper has run a series of articles that serve as obstacles to a correct understanding of the world we live in.

Two brothers: both born of the same mother, but Morris' father was white, Zachariah's black. Their home is South Africa the home of playwright Athell Fugard, author of The Blood Knot, the UB Theatre Department's current production' at the Pfeifer (Courtyard) Theatre on Lafayette and Hoyt. The circle of time has brought Fugard's play closer to reality now than when it was written, fifteen years ago. But the racial conflict that has erupted in Rhodesia is the latest blooming of a thorny bush, and Fugard has unearthed its roots. His play is a work of true beauty and compelling power, where both qualities blend and strengthened each other. It manages to deal with the question of race while avoiding the pat cliches of black and white rhetoric and character. It does so by reducing what is basically a human problem, and an intimate one, back to aa intimate, human scale. — More than skin deep The conflict between Zack (Edward Smith) and Morris (Saul Elkin) passes beyond the superficiality of color an arbitrary point, in a way, since both are actually black in South Africa's eyes. Morris is soul, a gentle dreamer in hiding from the harshness of the world, in search of beauty. Zack is body, the gritty bedrock of the needs, desires, and instincts of the human animal. Their opposing natures are colored by their passage through their culture: they gradually realize that their society has locked them into hopeless lives because of their blackness. Their frustration releases itself in a series of "games," every more savage, with the lighter-skinned Morris playing the white and Zack the black. they But aren's simply replaying the white-oppressor/black-rebel charade. Neither Zack nor Morris is a complete being, and it's largely this that brings them together. Zack envies Morris's purity, and Morris envies Zack's strength, and they — — rp D? jfllft/; f!% V; f \ : fl reveal, with growing clarity, how bitter a Ibnging they share. The bitterness cannot be hidden, but there is also much love and sharing passing between the two; they have the common knowledge of each other's lives that brothers have, and it serves them both as support and weapon. Family ties Fugard's great achievement is in displaying the compassion that he feels for these men alongside his anger at the injustice that fetters them Zack knows "injustice" only as "a word that feels all cramped in the month," and Fugard makes our mouths feel cramped, as well. He is a naive poet in the best sense, writing in simple, strong images sex as "two donkeys in a road full of stones;" Zack as — — "black as the twelve strokes of midnight" that catch the mind, and with humanity that grips the heart. Fugard makes us see that we are all brothers, and the blood knot binds us all. As much.love and dedication as Fugard brought to hjs writing, Smith and Elkin bring to their performances. The production's director as well, Smith has tremendous stores of sheer power, as well as a great deal of charm, both of which are essential to a fully realized portrait of Zack. Elkin's performance as Morris is the best he's given at the University as an actor, and I think it's because he did something very courageous he didn't distance himself from the character. His sympathy and involvement with Morrie are total; he has shared with him much of his own life. The stage presence and skill that Smith and Elkin share are there,, of course, but they've reached within themselves to fill in the technique. The Blood Knot is a splendid production of an important play; the fifteen or so people who saw Sunday's performance should have had much more company.

The movie dove into a sixties' eclectic combining Beatle song with socio-political flashbacks to the Beatles' era. production God, how times have changed. People who are here to view the Beatles' college are no more than fourteen years of age on the average.. The crowd is lethargic: they see the production as a piece of history rather than experience that which was once (kmmW'W of faint, discreet images in their burgeoning minds series “Help! I need somebody./Help! not just anybody There are no ecstatic screams when the Beatles perform this song on film. One lone woman, a few years older than I, claps along with the song. Her response is out of place, a rhythmic sound which only the past remembers as relevant; others in the present are embarrassed by the reckless joy she conveys. Today she is tired. The past becomes the reality of todya. We are consoled somehow. The embarrassment fades to tolerance. The recollection is clear: It's summer in Batavia, New York. "Help!" has been released. The girls I knew got up at eight o'clock to dream and to stand in line until the town theater's doors are opened at 2 p.m. They have 16 Magazine's flat-colored Beatles’ posters" pasted on all their bedroom walls. Squealing, they quickly down corn flakes and race out the door. For hours they talk about John or George or Paul or Ringo. The line builds to a queue a block long. A catalyst for nostalgia Everyone claps and sings and screams as the movie begins. Yeh, yeh, some cry — — relevant. The teenagers cannot feel Beatles' memories in their young senses. To those just learning to appreciate the rock of Aerosmith and Kiss, the Beatles era (as well as the radical sixties) is little more than a yeh — Someone should tell them Away With Words is set up with three film projectors and about two dozen slide projectors. The dominant image is aimed at the screen's center and portrays various pieces of footage from Beatles movies, concern, or still photographs. To the sides It's all But in the present, those girls are grown women. They have careers. So the movie is a catalyst for nostalgia. Everyone should be aware of this. The kids are still unmoved. too much Maybe the audience's response is not one of apathy, but of inability to consume such fast-moving technology. Seeing everything is impossible. Sight can focus securely on only one image at a time. It is probably the dominant center image of the Beatles performances which people gaze on. And any Beatles fan has seen these performances before. So one needs to see Away With Words of the action are various events of American culture in the sixties. At times, the screen's center shows surreal animation almost Daliesque in quality. The action gives way to pictorial stories, or other metaphors for Beatles' songs. "Eleanor Rigby" is played and 'all the lonely people' are visualized in photographs of old people, wrinkled with age, alone in the world's — space Beatlemania. amateurish, with film sequences which are expertly put together, but technically overdone. The images pass too quickly, like a dream. Human senses can only take so much bombardment. Past the point of acceptance are violence and pain. Precious moments cannot be savored at this pace, they can only be glimpsed with slight recognition. Feelings are not allowed to take hold in such a short time. The photography is well done, but often particularly not and stereotyped innovative. Although they are by no means banal, the images are typical 'and almost about four times before most of the images sink in. At four dollars a shot, that's sixteen dollars you could buy price and still for that four Beatles albums I remember a time when have enough change to buy five or ten packs of Beatles cards.

Some of those Beatles cards are selling for a couple of dollars each today. God Bless the Beatles. And Madison Avenue. Weekend films For those of violent nature among our peaceful campus, unhealthy urges can be safely vented this weekend, when the UUAB Film Committee shows Sam Peckinpah's The Killer Elite (tonight) and Sydney Pollack's The Yakuza (tomorrow and Sunday), both in the Norton Conference Theatre. Peckinpah's 1975 film, with James Caan leading a group of governmental mercenaries, was received as a mixed success, but one whose mixture is still a fascinating one. Pollack's film, also made last year, stars Robert Mitchum in an encounter with the modern descendants of the Samurai. The midnight showing is a self-explanatory animated freakout; Yellow Submarine.

Sombrero Fallout: A Japanese Novel simply fails to measure up to expectations Brautigan set for the reader with his three previous long prose works. All of those were, in part, novel-length parodic explorations of familiar genres; ( The romance historical Abortion), science fiction, the gothic, and the western ( Hawkline Monster), mystery ficfion and light pornography ( Willard and His Bowling Trophies). random violence (a small town gone mad); or lost love.

Why wants us to believe Sombrero has the same parodic intent or (at least) the same quality of creative imitation; but, if this is true, the parodic key remains entirely in should a sombrero fall out of the sky? The torn pieces of paper would never be able to tell him. Brautigan's possession. Unless good God he would have us blundering attempts to his believe — — imagistically evoke an "oriental" atmosphere provides substance enough for the book to deserve its subtitle. "He bit her very gently," one fove scene provides, "but just enbugh for her to make a noise like two branches of a cherry tree rubbing together at night in a spring storm with a heavy warm wind blowing all around." Such imagery at least has the virtue of sounding pleasant, but it shares in the extravagant failure of Brautigan's metaphoric language throughout the book. At one time, it must be said, Brautigan right the just maintained proportion of splendid clarity and jarring absurdity in his similes, but Sombrero he stiffens up, becomes trite and, yes, even tasteless. A few examples; the book's love-struck hero ponders "a thousand pieces of a puzzle tumbling around in his mind as if they were in a dryer in a Laundromat," if his worries could sing "they would have made the Mormon Tabernacle Choir sound like a potato;" his insomnia was like having a brain full of barbed last best, best last wire;" and a lightening bolt of despair suddenly fried his brain into thousands of pieces of dancing in " torn unlikely to paragraph, shreads and at the bottom of a writes wastebasket, expands, itself, finds a life of its own While the writer, in one half of the book, is plotlessly consumed with remorse over his lost love, the sketch involving the appearance of the sombrero evolves a middle and an end to go with the discarded beginning.

For a long time after his discovery and years of publishing calculated to make him the dean of West Coast Brautigan writers, Richard managed against all odds to preserve and develop his fanciful skills.

"Richard Paintings and Diebenkorn: Drawings 1943—1976, is regarded as the most comprehensive show of Diebenkorn's work. The ixhibit has brought nationafittention to the Albright-Knox which initiated it, and Will travel :o major museums, including the i/hitney in New York. relatively Diebenkorn is nknown in the East; he is a ialifornia artist who never sought the into often elusion jureaucratic heirarchy of the New That his fork ' art scene.

This development is excellently at the Albright, enabling viewer to trace the he ichievement of Diebenkorn from iis beginnings, as a twenty year ild art student, to the matured md experienced creator of the the stabilized with lore lesome Qcean Park series. In the ;arI ifer period, we are aware of omething special. Diebenkorn's exude some rare itill fifes jerceptions which become more stabilized with the progression. Awkward stances These still Tffes are special because of the particular lighting and angles from which they were created. In "Cigarette Butts" we see a drawing of a desk top covered with things one puts on a desk. What causes the viewer to stop is the perspective of the piece. It is an aerial view of a of bright color, who looks only at the cup under her chin, is a sunrise scene to relate to desk, which is disconcerting when such a work is suspended vertically. Similarly, Diebenkorn's figure drawings reflect' this intentional desire Logical self-discovery Diebenkorn's ability to put on canvas the interaction between awkward stances. These drawings are rarely done at eye level; Diebenko.rn chooses to draw from other angles which more fully express those postures of his models representing the awkyvard nature of , by Lester Burg the to capture human figure, composition, and color and lighting source is remarkable. This is especially clear in a painting with no figure, "Interior with View of the Ocean.” Diebenkorn ability demonstrates his to the two light effectively pattern sources here in harmony with the interior, whose simplicity allows the power of the light to be fully body, which he captures with clarity. is immensely Color an important aspect of Diebenkorn's paintings. In "No. 3" we are faced with a loose harmony of gold, red, blue, white, lavender, brown and black shapes which create a composition p I easing of considerable In potential. "Cityscape," color is used to create £n almost humorous effect. The predominant element here is a long' gray "roof top looking freeway" which intersects at the top with another gray band. To the right are bright and dark greens, orange, and blue colors portray to a which ■ seem California landscape. The colors are artificial looking, and contrast to the left side of the painting in which muted darker shades take on the shape of a city scene of clustered buildings. The style is Diebenkorn's, Sunrise scene Diebenkorn continues this mix style experiential and of interpretation, and uses it in his "Berkely" series.of the late fifties, of abstract a collection which expressionist works his continued clear represent vision of what he wishes to present. This series, a confusing jumble of shapes, relates the violence and great energy of a city area, whereas the "Albequerque" series is more subdued in color and less congested in composition The interiors which Diebenkorn painted in the late 50's and early 60's were the works I particularly admired. The Matisse inspired colors, and the skillfully worked out arrangements of the figures to their surroundings, create what has' been called a "pictorial dialectic between form and color". This is certainly true, a fact almost distracting to the viewer who must spend a longer than usual time in front of each canvas, in order to fully grasp Diebenkorn's ideas. In the earlier interiors of 1957 the focus seems to weigh more heavijy in the area of color and lighting For example, in "Woman in Window," we can't help but to focus and dwell upon the lighting which illuminates the woman's arm, hands, and the tassels of her scarf Which hang over the arm of the chair in which she is seated. In much the same way, in,"Woman realized. The second part of the exhibit features Diebenkorn's "Ocean Park," which begun in 1968, includes 95 paintings. In last Sunday's New York Times, John Russell called it "One of the most majestic pictorial achievements of By a Window," we see a the second half of this century." brightly profile, three-quarters largo The are paintings illuminated in deep contrast to averaging 80 inches in width, and the dark interior.

In other interiors, the dialectic becomes more balanced. The These ideas were the raw material color and lighting are as important from which this series was abstracted. These paintings do not the "Girl Three to viewer of and Coffee Cups," as are the spatial possess the stark energy of earlier arrangements upon which the works, as Diebenkorn is not light falls.

("Lament'VFripp, Wetton Palmer James) / & Rodan Ever since the mid-60s, many musical fusions and hybrids once considered unthinkable have been attempted some With to be quite successful proving masterminds such as Keith Emerson and Robert Fripp mixing the strains of jazz and classical music into the realms of rock, a new style was born which man christened a progression. progressive rock" This sound has attracted a unique breed — Prodigal Sun band," Rodan, performs. Their expertise in this field has brought about much excitement locally since their appearance on the professional music scene about two years ago Genesis hears Rodan The people were ripe for a progressive band. And we were the first on the scent explains drummer Ted Reinhardt. What followed from this were three live radio for WBUF and steady performances Sunday night bookings at McVan's. It was on one of these Sundays that one of the most notable events in Rodan's short career occurred. On March 28, following a performance in the Century Theater, the highly acclaimed progressive band, Genesis, visited McVan's and Rodan. Rick McGirr, keyboards, recalls the incident: I went down to the radio station that -continued on page 18 Friday, 10 December 1976 . The Spectrum . Page seventeen �I Buffalos music afternoon and they were having ah interview with Rutherford and Collins. Bob Allen was there with a couple of the disc jockeys that knew us and they gave us some plugs and invited them [Genesis] down. And they came down. We talked with them between sets'. They liked us." Pretty impressive boast for a local band, huh? That’s the whole problem, Rodan isn't just your average local band. They're a competent exceptionally of group elaborately musicians that recreate complex recorded material, yet still add a flavor that's all their own. An average Rodan set may consist of everything from the imagistic "Watcher of the Skies" and "The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway," both by Genesis, to the harmonic Mahavishnu of the pyrotechnics Orchestra's "Sister Andrea." Other recording artists from which the group borrows material range from the English eclecticists Yes, King Crimson, Emerson, Lake and Palmer and Gentle Giant to popular jazz-rockers such as Chick Corea and Billy Cobham. The accuracy of their impersonations is frightening. For bands like Rodan, the road upward is long and hard. Their music is by no means widely accepted, so when the band is not playing out, they study under professionals in an attempt to expand their background. Tom Singer musical Rienhardt, besides dabbling in minor percussives and occasional mellotron, studies classical voice under teacher Genia Las. Guitarist Bruce Brucato and bassist Bill Ludwig both take private lessons from the Buffalo Philharmonic's percussionist Lynn Herbold. Keyboardist Rick McGirr is presently studying both classical piano under Ann Moot and clarinet under Amrom Chodos. Original music planned But neither Rodan's succesful copy sets, nor their professional tutelage are of importance equal to that of their latest project; a full set of their own original music. The original material is very important in two respects. One is that if the group is to get anywhere eventually, they will have to come up with something other than copy songs, while the other is that people are waiting for it. "The thing is we've been learning the original stuff and we haven't been learning any new copy stuff at all for the longest time," Ted explained and Rick fallowed by adding that "people are waiting for something new and original from us." So for the past year the group has been working on what will amount to be an hour of totally original sounds. Rick explains how the work has been coming about: "Somebody comes up with a basic idea and then we all work on arranging it. Usually a basic outline is completed before it's presented to the group and then people just fit in parts where they feel like it" Rodan plans on debuting the material soon, and although what will fol low is not scene, the inevitable analogies to Genesis were made. —continued from page 17— ... definitely known, they believe it vyill be the long-awaited catalyst that will trigger their aspirations of touring arid recording into reality. Above all, Rodan is a collection of musicians who are seriously devoted; concerned with little except playing music. "We really don't care about getting rich and painting our faces or anything like that; just playing music that's important to us and that's new." Pegasus Imagine how frustrating it must be for a group of musicians to expend all of it's time and creative energies only to be cast aside by audiences prefering commercial copy material. Such is the syndrome that encompasses young musicians whose onlookers are just not ready to accept what originality they have to offer. Is it a lack of aesthetic class on the part of the band or the audience? For the theaterical rock group Pegasus, it has been a matter of identifying this area's progressive greenness and coming to grips with the task of trying to make Buffalo an "artistic city/' 1975, this Since the spring of conglomerate of classically influenced youths Pegasus called had been experimenting with the theatrical rock concept and by the fall of that same year, following a live radio broadcast for WBUF in October, were entertaining the local bar playing mainly scene; original compositions. With their only copy song being Todd Rundgren's "Utopia," creative endeavors such as "Superman" and "Nightmare" received much playing and meek success. It was during these first few professional months that a number of frustrations arose. Theatrical rock Along with the release of the songs "Superman" and "Nightmare" came the presentation of a complex concept piece entitled "Alienation." Concieved by singer-lyricist Mark Freeland with the by Treccase, music written Steve keyboards, and guitarist Vince Cooper, it resulted into a four part drama about an alien who visits Earth from outer space and, after being betrayed in a love affair with a woman he meets upon arriving here, plans on carrying out his prescribed mission against Earth. Such is an extremely sketchy overview of the plot but the fact of the matter is that "Alienation" is a splendid piece of invention. Drummer Chuck Cavanaugh and bassist Kent Weber complete the production which is a tightly composed classi-jazz-rock fusion, equipped with Freeland in multiple wardrobe, a light and slide show and extra actors (much like the TubesJ. It was after a steady playing of "Alienation" at places like McVan's that the feedback began. With Genesis making enormous success through their concept piece, "The Lamb Lies Down on Boradway," much of the world was getting a grand dose of rock stagecraft. So when Pegasus made the """Hear 0 Israel** For gems from the Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 M//AII/ Unnecessary comparisons "People will compare us to Genesis. They have already," explains Freeland. "I think one reason is that our names are syllabically similar. Also becausy we have a long piece and a singer who cfoes theatrics go and a guitarist that sits down and people only know of one comparison to make and we suffer."It's mot so much that the group feels they're beyond comparison when it comes to contrasting individual qualities with established performers but as a unit, they feel they've come up with something novel and are rightfully upiet with the direct parallel to Genesis. "If people are going to compare us With anyone, I would rather have it be Stanley Kubrick than Genesis!" And with this, Pegasus has introduced yet another new hybrid: Kubrick rock, Freeland explains, "You think of Stanley Kubrick and-the music he uses. It's stuff he feels the immortality of, like "The Blue Danube" for 2001 or for Beethoven for A Clockwork Orange. First of all, it's very moving which is what we try to do. Secondly, it's technically very good which is what we also try to do. Most of all the visuals are portraying a story that he feels strongly about and has a meaning, with small injections of humor." Not only' were they frustrated with being seen as a pseudo-Genesis, their originality was receiving minimal attention from all but a cult following. So the year 1976 developed as a year of compromises. The group adopted a number of copy songs such as "The Musical Box" and "Watcher of the Skies," both by Genesis along with material by Gentle Giant and Van der Graff Generator. However, disenchanted with the bar scene and it’s infringement upon their creativity, they have gone on a two month sabbatical to write more original material. Among these will be "March Of The Incredibly Obese" which deals with the trials arid tribulations of overweight society ... and another unfinished composition about an elf. Since skipping the bar phase is highly unlikely, the group plans on returning to the local curcuit in late December performing their new music, hoping things will be different. "It is important to us that people'Take us for what we are." And so far it just hasn't been happening. Pepperwood Greene There's a rather obscure bumper sticker in the .Buffalo area that reads "Have You Ever Seen Pepperwood Greene?" And the answer that somes from most people to this is an inevitable "no," for the simple reason that in their f6ur year history, Pepperwood Greene just hasn't developed into "that common word" in the households of music appreciators. And in a sense, all one can do is blame the media for the existing deficiency in local talent coverage. But Pepperwood Greene still continue their struggle for notoriety in a world of insurmountably powerful TO STUDENTS, FACULTY AND STAFF THE STUDENT DIRECTORY Page eighteen . The Spectrum Friday, 10 December 1976 Five piece combo By 1974, the group had expanded to a five piece folk-rock combo incorporating a female vocalist. Their basic format again stressed originality but was also heavily influenced by established musicians such as David Bromberg, Loudon Wainwright, III, and Steve Goodman. The following year gave rise to a six-man assemblage playing strictly original country-rock compositions and proving to be the most vocal Pepperwood Greene to date. "It's always been really hard to classify ourselves," Ted stresses. And as it stands now, the ever-changing Pepperwood Greene is going through yet another phase. Now it could best be classified as jazz-rock; done excellently. Their progression to more complex forms of music through the years is plainly evident. "Every year we improve and the musicians we associate with improve," ■ remarked Don about the group's history. Their present linking with musicians Tony Dioguardi (bass), Joel Gumbiner (Fender Rhodes), and Rob Mahoney (drums) has brought about a group performing material by the likes of Frank Zappa, Passport, and Chuck Mangidne. They still perform much original material (mainly Ted's, although they pointed out that the other members are presently working on compositions of their own). "Everyone has a say," explained drummer Rob Mahoney, who prior to this group played with a jazz company called Second Coming and handled percussion for classical composer Betsy Jolas. "It's a very open atmosphere toj/vork in." And so nestled within the West side of Buffalo is Pepperwood Greene; a versatile local group that is playing a brand of music that many people crave, but insist doesn't exist in this town. Everything from Stanley Clarke's "Lopsy Lu" to "Feelin' Alright," to a jazzy remake of "Mercy Mercy" is contained within a set of this band's material. They recently played in the Katharine Cornell Theater for <an event sponsored by College B and hope to be playing at the Westside bar Jack Daniels' in the near future. If you haven't seen them perform, you're missing opt on some of the better local talent in the area; it's as simple as that. lO BEER® 9:30 FOR DISCOUNTS OFFERED commercialism Well, as always, the best place to start is at the beginning. In 1973, the concept of reality Greene became Pepperwood of two West-side workings through the based musicians by the names of Ted Lehman and Donald Kraus. At this time the group was a trio performing maiply original acoustic material at coffeehouses and bars throughout Buffalo. Intermingled with their modest engagements at the Library and the BonaVista were some of the more frustrating incidents in the brief professional career of creator Ted Lehman. Ted relates, "I used to solo at a place called the Rue Franklin for a while, until they didn't 'want me there anymore. It was because I was too good. They wanted performers that would just sit there and play background music and not draw attention to themselves. EveRy - 11:30 pm fflonday CORA/EK Rim 4 AMHERST STS.

Browne vocals here are equally emotional, as he sings "I'm goir back inside and turning out the light/And I'll be in tl> dark but you'll be out of sight." The thought is brilliant RECORDS loni Mitchell, Hejira (Asylum) Ttie world's premier singer and songwriter has just eleased a monster. Joni Mitchell certainly hasn't let myone down with Hejira, an album which may well be emembered as the top album of 1976. As good as Jackson Jrowne or even Bob Dylan may be, when compared with /Is. Mitchell they're both mere amatuers. She's that good. Her songwriting remains as vivid and expressive as ever. Vhether she's singing about the life of a bird in "Song To V Seagrull" from her first album, her experience in Greece, n "Carey," or being involved with a movie executive in 'The Arrangement," Joni is able to communicate her eelings to the listener as sincerely as if she were pouring >ut her feelings and beliefs to an analyst. She has the yrical power to make her listeners feel as if they've known vocal prowess is simply ter for years, while her istonishing. In an age when just about anyone can walk nto a recording studio sounding like a Phoebe Snow and valk out knowing that, through the use of modern echnology and gimmickry, their vocals will turn opt ’respectably, voices like Mitchell's should be regarded as authentic natural resources. Ever since the first album, her breathy soprano was magically able to soar up and down through the most complex of melodies, to shift effortlessly lowest of low notes, with consistent spontaneity. In a nutshell, as a isinger, and also a songwriter, Joni Mitchell's a perfectionist Jom Miicnai. Hhhra searching for, she hasn't found. Her life has been a travelogue, flying all over the world and never really staying in any one place long'fenough to really call it home. As the title implies, Hejira is an exodus, an escape from reality. Maybe the whole superstar syndrome is becoming too burdensome for her and she wants to just forget about her responsibilities as Joni Mitchell-superstar and become Joni Mitchell, commoner once again. Her lyrics reflect a longing for this escape, hejira, continually. In the album's prettiest song, "Amelia." Joni sings: "A ghost of aviation She was swallowed by the sky Or by the sea, like me she had a dream to fly L ike Icarus ascending On beautiful foolish arms Amelia, it was a false alarm. Maybe I've never really loved / guess that is the truth I've spent my whole life in clouds at icy altitudes And looking down on everything I crashed into his arms Amelia, it was a false alarm. ’’ The lyrics of "Amelia." as beautiful as they are, must be heard to fully be appreciated. The song was put together exquisitely; Larry Carlton on lead guitar and Victor Feldman on vibes provide a dream like backing to the angelic vocal performance Joni gives. I could go on forever about this album, one of the rare albums which leaves you in such shock after a listening expressed. Side two is more of a vivid exploration of the bigge human' influences in his work; his son, his father, his wif and himself. The strength Jackson draws from his sc Ethan is blatant in "The Only Child," a stirring prayerf ballad of living advice. The whole song should be quote but suffice it to say that the general idea becomes t uplifting chorus, echoed throughout the song: "Take got care of your mother . . take good care of your broth . . take good care of each other." It is instruction wf taken by all, not only Ethan. "Daddy's Tune" is a reconciliation, verbalizing tf thoughts that one has when time passes and all is forgive between parent and child. Once again, Browne's though; are applicable to many other than himself; . . But Daddy I want to let you know somehow The things you said are so muck dearer now And / viiould turn the pages back But time will not allow The highway returns in "Sleep’s Dark and Siler Gate" a song with such raw emotion that it's amazing was even committed to vinyl. You want to cry wiv Jackson for his loss, when he sings "Oh, God, this is sorri shape I'm in/When the only thing that makes me cry is th kindness in my baby's eyes." It's another of Browne's hig points; the ability and the strength to bare his soul aiv innnermost emotions. Jackson himself is the primary figure in the album close. "The Pretender" is about man's struggle for "tb legal tender," when in actuality "true love could have bee a contender." "Say a prayer for the pretender," Jackso; urges, "who started out so young and strong, only t surrender." The amound of appropriate rhyms in the son that you begin to seriously wonder whether Joni Mitchell is really human, or if she was blessed with some magical power that gives her the ability to put out such incredibly > great music. She's put out Blue, For the Roses, (which in this reviewer's opinion has to be the best album ever recorded) Ladies Of The Canyon, and now Hejira. The empress of music reigns on. —Steven Bireff in the truest sense of the word. As I previously mentioned, Hejira, her newest release, should easily be recognized as the album of the year. For starters, Hejira is over fifty-one minutes in length, unusually long for a single record. Joni has a lot to say on this disk. Her personal life may have prompted the normally strictly present-minded Joni to be more reflective of her past, putting just about her entire life, from childhood in Maidstone, Canada to coronation as musical goddess of L.A. in its proper perspective. Joni sounds confused and puzzled, as if she doesn't know what she should he doing next. In the eight minute epic "Song for Sharon/' the options of marriage, having children, getting involved in politics are all mentioned as alternatives that people have thrown at Joni. Though Joni says, "All I really want to do right now is find another lover," the impression one’gets is that Joni is looking for something more than just another lover. The message that seisms to be discretely implied rs that whatever Joni is desperately h.roughout this Sun m% ■ Jackson Browne, The Pretender (Asylum) The Pretender offers a passionate view inside the mind of America's premier Heartbreak kid, Jackson Browne, and is his most professional work to date. It is a blend of melodic artistry, balanced by lyrics that read beautifully alone and without music. It is a cyclical album, containing completions of series begun years ago. But it is a story in itself. "The Fuse" opens and sets the mood with the theme of time, or lack thereof. Browne's preoccupation with being unable to fulfill his self-determined destiny is evidenced quite strongly here in lines like "The years that I spent lost in the mystery . . . Time runs like a fuse . . the fear of living for nothing strangles the will . . . How long will their needs go unfilled?" The song ends in a prolonged fademut, prolonging the indefinite continuation of the thought long after the sounds have ended. "Vour Bright Baby Blues," the oldest track on the album, is a song I heard years ago, when Jackson had only one album out. It was performed in sequence with "Looking Into You" on Don Kirschner's show, Rock Concert. It is really third in the sequence, though, with "Farther On" from Late For the Sky being the middle piece. Jackson's journey continues here, that ongoing search for love and inner peace. He's "been up and down this highway/Far as my eyes can see." But the harder he tries, ,he "can never seem to get away from me." That phrase rings especially true, another testimony to the universality of Browne's lyrics. When Jackson asks to be . is truly an achievement. Are you prepared for "Tlv Pretender"? Make sure you are before you listen it's th* best song on the record. Producer Jon Landau, who "did it" for Bruc Springsteen, has released Jackson from worrying about th technicalities he dealt with on other albums. By employinthe musicians for backup with whom Browne was mos familiar, he enabled the singer to concentrate on his mail chore. Russ Kunkel, Lee Sklar, and Craig Doerge are ai here, and so are John David Souther and Don Henley 01 Harmonies. Lowell George lent a strong hand through th whole album, and, of course, David Lindley supplies hi personal brand of violin.

Wis Prodigal Sun �Rude awcuienings at Coop China: the time has come To the Editor The time has come to implement the Shanghai Communique and establish full diplomatic relations with The People's Republic of China. For nearly twenty-five years, the people of TTumr'ind the people of the United States were separat/d by barriers of official hostility between their respective governments. Lack of contact and communication coupled with the tensions, of the “cold war" made it difficult for our people to think objectively about the Chinese people. More than four years have passed since President Nixon and Premier Chou Fn-lai issued the Shanghai Communique on February 27. U)72. in which they declared that “progress toward the normalization of relations between China and the United States is in the interests of all countries." In that communique the United States affirmed “its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves" and also “the ultimate objective of the withdrawal of all U.S. forces and military installations from Taiwan.” During the last four years some steps have been taken in furtherance of the purposes set forth in the communique. Trade between the People’s Republic of China and the United States has developed, official exchange visits and tourist travel have been instituted, liaison offices have been established by and governments in Peking respective the Washington, and the U.S. armed forces remaining in Taiwan have been reduced significantly. Meanwhile, the People’s Republic of China has been seated in the-United Nations and its councils and has been officially recognized by more than 100 countries. At the same time, some actions of the United States Government in relation to Taiwan appear clearly contrary to the intent of the communique. These include increased arms sales on credit, assistance in the building of a jet fighter factory, and permitting the establishment of five new consultates in U.S. Territory by the government on Taiwan. If relations between the People's Republic ot China and the United States are to be normalized and the full intent of the Shanghai Communique is to be realized, however, there are several important steps that remain to be taken: 1. All U.S. forces and military installations should be withdrawn from Taiwan. The Mutual Defense Treaty negotiated 2, between the United States and the Chaing should be abrogated. government oh Taiwan in withdraw its United States should The 2. recognition of Taiwan as the Republic of China and sever all diplomatic relations with the Taipeh government. 4. The United States should formally recognize the People’s Republic ot China and establish full diplomatic relations with the Peking government. Steps should also be taken to facilitate and increase trade between the two countries. Remaining barriers to trade, travel, and other torms ot communication and exchange should be reduced eliminated. The if possible, and. building ot cultural, in constructive mutual relations educational, scientific and other fields should be our goal. We believe that the implementation of the Shanghai communique and the establishment at lull diplomatic relations between the two governments should not be delayed further. Now is an'appropriate time for the growing good will and friendship between the peoples of the United Slates and the People's Republic of China to he expressed and reinforced through the normalization of relations. We are convening the National Leadership Conference on U.S.-China Relations which we hopewill be the first step in widespread educational efforts to achieve normalization.of relations with the People's Republic of China at an early dale. All are urged to attend the National Leadership Conference on U.S.-China Relations Friday. Saturday. December II. December 10-7:30 p.m. 5:30 p.m. Washington Hilton.

Monday 1 had the unpleasant experience of trying to return a record for a cash refund at-the Record Co-op. In early November I purchased a copy of Rory Gallagher's album Calling Card. I found it was scratched and returned it for the same album. The second copy was scratched in the same places: On returning this copy 1 asked for a cash refund* which I was told I could not have. Since I did not want a different album. I again took another copy of the same album from a cashier who in response to my question "and what should 1 do if this one is scratched" replied. "If this one is scratched also, we'll give you a cash refund. As you may have guessed, the third copy was scratched in the same place (indicating a factory defect). So. today, happy in the knowledge that I could finally gel a cash refund and stop running to the Co-op every week. I tried to return the album for a cash refund. Another cashier told me politely but firmly that the Co-op does not give cash refunds. When I explained the promise made to me about a cash refund by the first cashier, he found her and explained my problem to her. She denied ever having said any such thing. When I insisted she had indeed spoke of a cash refund she got indignant and told me I was "lucky" to be offered a credit slip which 1 didn't -want. She then told me. “It you don’t like it. go to Cavages." Such comments and discourtesy I feel are unbecoming of an employee ot the student body. Hopefully next semester some of the help at the Co-op will be replaced by someone a little more mature and a great deal more honest. " David l.cviiu ‘Reinstate Grabiner y To I he T.diior Immediately before the beginning of this term, Assistant Professor Gene Grabiner of of Social. Philosophical and Historical Foundations of education received a notice from the Vice President of Academic Affairs that he was fired, effective as of the end of the H)76-ld77 academic year. There were many protests against Vice President Bunn's highly questionable action from the UUP. GShU. AAUP, The Siwtrmn. and various individuals. Although these protests on behalf of Professor Grabiner have the UUP is circulating a petition continued claiming that Grabioer's firing represents “hidden retrenchment” Bunn and Somit refuse to respond to them. Women's Studies College strongly supports Professor Grabiner; we want to add our voices to those demanding that the administration's action against him be revoked, and that he be reinstated. To review the basic tacts of the case. Grabiner went through his department's review process, which strongly recommended that his contract be renewed. The Acting Provost of the School ot Fducation endorsed and forwarded his recommendation to the Vice President for Academic Affairs, who passes on all faculty reappointments.

Larry I morns Preserving the esthetic climate To the Editor Your article “Questions Arise over Future of Arts on Campus” (The Spectrum November 17) includes an error which I’d like to point out. (It has some other errors which have been drawn to my attention, but I’ll only address myself to those issues with which I am directly involved.) , The "partial list” of University art holdings, compiled by former University art historian Peter Kaufman, which is allegedly “floating around somewhere." is. in fact, in the possession ot several people, including the Chairman ot the Art Department, myself, and Art Department graduate assistant Roger Rapp (alluded to in The Spectrum article), who requested and received a copy trom me.

While the present of the formerly projected art gallery on the Amherst campus somewhat complicates the mission of such a committee, there is a pressing need to humanize the new campus, and to create an Office of uncertainty hetic - required. Faculty protests have stressed how this tiring violates faculty traditions of collegiality and peer review.

Although she’s new to the job, Cousins has definite ideas about the team and her role as coach. Cousins is coaching women just a year or two younger than she, and (in one case) even older than her, but she feels that her playing experience at Brockport and Genesee Community College qualifies her to coach. She played four years of varsity basketball, and also competed in field hockey, tennis and softball on the varsity level. “I have the According to her, age is not as important as experience experience and knowledge to give them (the team] what they need.” Cousins said that the team had little difficulty adjusting to a new coach. “They had to understand that I was a new coach with a new philosophy, and that things weren’t going to be the same. I had to make i( clear from the beginning, and they’ve adjusted very well,” she said. Cousins is stressing fundamentals because “if we can master fundamentals, we can be on top of a lot of teams,” she said. She also has noticed that many of the players do not have a consistent shooting style and she is trying to teach the players to establish a shooting style, and then stick to it. , Here at Buffalo, Cousins is facing different problems than she did at Brockport. At Brockport, athletic teams were liberally funded, but at Buffalo, the problem is “putting money into teams at all,” according to Cousins. She thinks that funding for sports is important because “we’re serving a good number of people.” She also believes that students must be the ones to insure future funding for athletics, and she praised the Students for the Future of Athletics as “a real good step in the right direction.” - Professional athlete Cousins spent this summer playing for the Buffalo Breskis in International Women’s Professional Softball League. Although the schedule was very demanding (128 games in three months), she called the summer “a tremendous experience,” and recommended it to any woman talented enough to make the team. She also said that the money she got was not important. “I would work as hard if I wasn’t getting paid as if I was,” she commented. If women’s sports are to grow, they must maintain that attitude, she asserted. “For women, playing is the focal point, and for men, money is the focal point. That attitude has to stay,” she said. Cousins is very excited about her job. “I was really fortunate to thr >b. It’s like a dream come true she concluded. ” by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer After traveling to Edinboro, Bucknell and Corning Community College, the wrestling Bulls have finally made their way back to the friendly confines of Clark Hall. Tomorrow marks the opening of the Bulls very attractive home mat schedule and their opponents will be the highly reknowned Nittany Lions of Penn State. As the defending champions of the Eastern Wrestling League, which is now in its second season of existence, Penn State is currently one of the best collegiate wrestling schools in the East. Last season, the Lions were honored by qualifying many of their grapplers to the NCAA Wrestling Championships in Arizona while posting a seasonal record of 10-2. Penn State will be looking for a repeat performance in the ’76-’77 season. But as the cliche goes, “this is a new season,” and it could also be a season of surprises. Clark Hall has not kept it a secret that they feel Penn State can be beaten. "During this past week there has been a kind of enthusiasm in the team’s practice sessions that has sparked coach Ed Michael to comment. “This team has the potential to explode against Penn State.” ‘Elite of the East’ Whether the Bulls can “explode against Penn State” remains to be seen. From a field of eight powerhouse teams from the East, the Lions placed second in their own Invitational Tournament. (Capturing the team championship were the respected grapplers from Lehigh. Other competing institutions included Clarion, Navy, Pittsburgh, Michigan State, Syracuse and Virginia.) Terming the tournament “the elite of the east,” John Morris, director of Sports Information at Penn State and director of the Eastern Wrestling League as well, commented further that “we had the top wrestlers in the Eastern Wrestling League here and they held up very well. Penn State and Clarion were ahead of Navy, and that’s a good sign that the strength of the east is in our league.” Morris forgot to mention that there are three other additional teams in the fine Eastern Wrestling League, besides Penn State, Pittsburgh and Clarion. They include Bloomsburg State, Lock Haven State and, of course, Buffalo. Characterized by Morris as a “young team,” the Lions will be lead by their star captain and lone senior, Jerry White (177). Like the Bulls, Penn State is an experienced but young team, sporting many seasoned veterans with two untested freshman. Topheavy Lions “Our guys will be getting better before the season is over,” Morris said, “but we’ll be feeling our way along. We need-some help in the lighter weights, but we’re strong up top.” However, this is where the similarities between the two opposing teams like a bizarre twist which just might benefit the host Buffalo squad. Buffalo’s coach Michael has noted this year’s squad is strong at the lighter and middle weight classes, while the upper weights pose a glaring problem. With the Bulls and the Lions strength located at opposite ends of the poles, it just may happen that the balance of the match may be decided by the two middle weights (150 and 158). These two key matchups will see Buffalo’s strength pitted against Penn State’s strength. Representing th? Lions will be Bill Vollrath and Dave Becker, while the Bulls feature co-captins Bob Martineck and Kirk Anderson. Regardless of the final outcome, this is an event in Buffalo sports that should not be taken lightly nor missed. The match will start at 2 p.m. in the Clark Gym tomorrow. $2 Admission is free with a valid Buffalo ID card to all others. After all, you just might bear witness to a tremendous upset. — twenty-three Friday, 10 December 1976 . The Spectrum .

The Bonnies, traditionally a tough opponent, handed the rebuilding Bulls a thorough thrashing, 83-42, in a match that was never in doubt. Buffalo’s team The first race of the contest, the 200 yard medley relay, was an indication of things to come, as the Bonnies pulled out to a 7-0 lead, with an easy victory in the event. The following two races also were won by the visitors, as they extended their margin to with a 46-22 lead. The visitors totally dominated the rest of the match, as they placed first in six of the remaining Despite ' their seven events. apparent lack of first place finishes in these races, there were impressive many still performances turned in by the Buffalo women. Sandy Yakota had a second and a third place finish, Heidi Schlamowitz and Wisniewski had second place finishes.

The score then read St. Bonaventure 23 and UB 20, but as it turned out, that was as close as the Bulls would evefget.

X Ux J 4>»i « i i I Clearly, the major critical issue facing each student today, despite one’s suffering from striking economic inflation, is the “debt service-tuition” compensatory mechanism mismanaged by t he Trustees (Fig. 1). Debt service is increasin g from SI30 million to $155 million since bonding of construction (Amherst Stony Brook) has been occurring Revenues going up S3 million (assuming no increases in tuition and fees, dorm rent, etc.) since the higher tuition levels did not take effect in the past summer. So, there is S22 million less available for operative SUNY since revenues go first for the debt service, and second only to SUNY SUNY is asking for the S22 million to be given the State, which itself wotdd probably not increase' the overall budget, but simply to a shift of where the money comes from, from the income fund to the State. If the State fails to give the funds, then either the SUNY bpdget gets cut S22 million, or tuition and fees, dorm rent, etc. get increased, or a combination of these can occur again in the fiscal —continued on page 2 3- I:I * * vision tlio < Iasi 1y Ways ans Committee \ssembly —* c Ci irun11 it, ; Jen”L__ r~~-- v- I I » L Hover , nor I I I jTxocut "budget iv»1 | — ' — : Anatomy of the SUNY Budget In general, the SUNY budget has been developed with the following objectives: To stabilize enrollment patterns, To meet inflationary cost increases, To prevent further erosion in support levels, To protest the existing physical structure, To continue progress towards opening the Stony Brook Hospital, the Purchase Performing Arts Programs, and moving into the Amherst facility, and To stabilize the income offset. In the 1977—78 SUNY budget request to the State as approved by the Trustees, an increase of $39.9 million has been estimated on top of the 1976—77 base budget of $643.5 million. This increase approximately breaks down to: $21 million; strengthening existing fixed costs million; enrollemnt $11.2 $2.8 programs million; Equal Opportunity programs $2.1 million; $2.1 million. Stony Brook Hospital Of $21 million increase requested in the fixed costs. $1.2 million would go to the grad student stipend increases, approximated to $500 per student. On the other hand, however. SUNY has been consistently focusing on the increase of tuition and fees, and dorm rent to compensate the debt service from "bond-out" resulting high-interest construction. Such a relationship is clearly simplified in fig. I. SUNY construction is financed through a complicated method involving several state agencies. Tuition was instituted in 1963 to pay for the construction of campuses. Prior to 1963, academic building was financed out of state funds. Currently, as part of the Capital Construction budget, all buildings are initially financed out of state funds (first instance appropriations). Buildings are then bonded by the Housing Finance Agency (UFA). HFA bonds buildings because the state cannot go ; , Editor’s Note: The following document has been made in response to the current extensive fiscal crisis facing all students who are lucked in the SUNY system. It is to provide concerned students with the basis of this crisis, and means to control it. into debt wjthout voter, permission. The state and HFA have a base ownership agreement and at the end of 30 years the buildings become slate-owned. SUNY makes two payments on the bonds a year and must keep a year’s payment in reserve as security. SUNY must pay every year for the interest and the principle on the bonds for the next 30 years. This is called debt service. When tuition was created, money was made available for SUNY to use to pay for the debt service on new construction. Every new building increases the payment on the debt service until 1993. In 1993. the first set of bonds are paid off and the debt service will begin to decline unless a new Nconstruction program is launched Dormitories have been financed by bonds since 1950, but in 1963 were refinanced with 30 year bonds. The difference between dormitories and other buildings is that the agreement with the Dormitory Authority on reserves is different. The first five years after construction, the State builds up reserve. Since dormitory construction has come to a halt since 1972, the debt service will decline slightly and then stabilize. • by Mong Heng Tan Special to The Spectrum �/wage base for decided.

A mass meeting will be held on Friday, December 10 including speakers and an open forum. The meeting’s goal is formulation and official Vicki Hill. research has included studying the contracts of legally recognized graduate student unions at the Universities of Michigan and Wisconsin, and evaluating documents such as health insurance policies, Title VH and IX of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare’s Educational Amendments, and wage buying power statistics. “GSEU is currently in the middle of a legal battle” for recognition, Hill explained. On December 7 and 8, tables staffed by GSEU members will be set up on all three campuses. At this time, they will publicize their activities until now and request particularly from feedback, graduate students.

The yearly fiscal problems of students have never been taken into account. At any point in time, there are at least two budgets being worked on at a campus. The work on the Executive Budget begins a year and a half before it is released by the Governor. The process begins with the department chairperson in September. There is and all the planning along consultation administration hierarchy. The following September the budget leaves the campus. There are hearings wit the Vice-Chancellor for Finance and Management, who together with the Chancellor, prepare a budget for the Trustees. The Trustees must approve the budget which goes to the Division of the Budget in' November and so on to the Legislature. — Prescriptions for control With a clear understanding of the above presenation, one ought to recognize the root of the current extensive fiscal crisis that is facing each student at SUNY today. It is the fiscal burden that has been shuffled from the State on to SUNY, which Mong Heng Tan is Graduate Student Association in turn passed it to the students since 1963.

Monday, 6 December 1976 irresponsibly shifted burden becomes clearer in mind and harder for students to entirely bear alone. Naturally, students must at once rise and denounce such a chronic fiscal crisis, and furthermore mobilize against the debt service. To this end, students must demand the Trustees to do only the following: Put a ceiling on the debt service payments and roll them back, and either -Convert the debt to long-term, low-interest bonds or put a moratorium on the payments. Secondly, one must not easily forget that next year an additional $22 million is supposed to go for the debt service payments (Fig. 1). If it gets cut in the 1977-78 SUNY budget request to the State, all students must prepare to shoulder this $22 million in terms of further increases in tuition and fees, dorm rent, etc., or, stay out of their public higher education. To prevent either of these from happening, students must at once organize to bargain the budget request at a higher level of the State Executive bureaucracy (Fig. 2). To this end, students must organize state-wide mass lobbying days, rallies, demonstrations, petition campaigns, letter-writing campaigns, and even a tuition strike, if necessary, before the Governor has reached his final decision on the SUNY budget. The above prescriptions have to be filled immediately. (Acknowledgement: the author is grateful to SASU for its assistance in providing necessary information presented in this article.)

After months of dizzying turbulance that have succeeded in mystifying the entire school of China experts, it appears that some sort of stability has finally settled over the monolithic Chinese nation. The experts who until recently were scratching their grey matter every time a set of chopsticks dropped to the ground are now writing up a storm of comprehensive, self-confident analyses as.if the last chapter ot the ongoing allegory has already been finished, signed and sealed. Of course the track record of these analysts is about as accurate profile during the relief effort, the as the long range forecasts of new Chairman endeared himself economists or meteorologists.

The signs would deviating revolutionary line and dabbling in not make Mao comfortable. As bourgeois habits, Mao and the left one correspondent put it, “if Mao was buried instead of on display just couldn’t reconcile themselves self-admitted having that to he’d be turning in his grave.” An important turn in the “gang pragmatist and “evil little man” as of four” campaign and ultimately Henry Kissinger indiscretely called the new regime’s consolidation of him last year, running the ship.

According to Butterfield Teng helped engineer the current “gang of four” albeit leftist purge at a Canton conference with Yeh Ching Ying, the Defense Minister, and Li Hsien-nien, the soon-tp-be Prime Minister. What all this implies is that Hua is really a stand in for Teng who is lurking behind the - scenes and relishing his role of secretly pulling all the sfrings. Is Hua really a marionette being adeptly manipulated by the hidden puppeteer Teng? If you can swallow the above, then Teng’s rise is a real possibility. And on the same token, if you consider this premise a bit far fetched then you conclusion can discard the without further notice. That is, if you refuse to believe that Hua is really a puppet of Teng then “the little man’s” reemergence is rendered rather improbable based upon certain proclivities of human nature. Obviously Hua would be rather disinclined to so hastily jeopardize his preeminent position to Teng and surrender all that prestige and power which he has probably grown accustomed to by now.

The Council is funded by the state and mandatory student activity fees, and has an annual budget of $5,500. $3,400 to seventeen The money is appropriated by a six-member undergraduate committee. To fye eligible for an award a student must be registered in an upper level independent study course, have a faculty sponsor, and file the necessary application forms. The largest grant was $400, while the smallest was $44.21. The criteria for evaluation of the proposals were categorized into four areas: educational merit of the proposed study, competence and independence of the researcher, plans for the result of the study, and societal impact. According to a Council spokesman, the money permits an undergraduate researcher to fulfill personal desires through working on research, gain experience in field work (an important step towards graduate work) and learn about the process of grant appropriations. The largest grant went to Steven Keeler for his studies of Holography (three dimensional lasar photography) and possible modes of Holography that are as yet unresearched. The second largest grant ($320.0Q) went to Stephen Parr for his study of public reactions to multimedia and their perception of which specific medium plays the greatest role within a multimedia framework.

An incredible chain of events, bringing Cameron to the verge of celebrity, began several months ago. A saxophone-playing friend implored him to grab his violin and go to the Tralfamadore Cafe, where they thought the featured band might let them sit in. Upon entering the cafe Doug saw “all that blond hair” and recognized Greg Allman. He approached the famous musician and told him that he played violin and was familiar with the Allman Brothers’ music. Allman asked Doug to sit in with him and true to cliched form, a star was born. “It was great playing, looking out, and seeing that the audience was all high school kids. That was the most enjoyable concert I’ve ever done. Afterwards Greg said, ‘If you don’t come with me I’ll kidnap you!’ Cameron observed. ” Allman merely noted what was plain to everyone in the audience. There Doug, was grinning manically, turning out scorching, Duane Allman style riffs on the violin, showing star quality. Violins and groupies Dreams that come true are received awards: hard to handle, and Cameron, who is going to California in January to record an album with Greg Allman, already feels the pressure. “People are usually impressed with what I’m doing but I’m still trying to figure out how I’m supposed to come off as a future rock star. I think the best thing is to act like a person. When something- like this happens rt’s hard to control yourself. I’m making a constant effort not to Come off snobby,” Cameron explained.

SDS targeted by FBI The FBI wrote that my name, address and phone number appeared on an “SD5> Mailing List,” which was kept in the office of Students for A Democratic Society (SDS) in Norton Hall. This list must have been stolen by an informer in or around SDS, or was taken by someone who had access to the office key, because SDS always kept this list in a drawer or cabinet. SDS had a tremendous following in 1969-70 here, 700 students attended the first SDS meeting in fall 1970, and many names on that list were not actually members of SDS. The point is not to separate SDS members from non-members, but to show that anybody who has ever signed a petition, or put his name on a mailing list, of an organization that was critical of government policy, could have his name recorded in an FBI file. The FBI implies that these organizations and their supporters are subversive. But when the FBI disrupts these organizations it is subversive.

The Spectrum Page five . �City labor round-up Narcotics Gourmet’s guide to drugs and addiction by Philip Mitchell Special to The Spectrum Drug addiction is the need or overwhelming desire to use a drug. Throughout history, drug abuse has been regarded in different ways. Opium was described by Virgil as “a potion so strong as to see your brother killed and not weep.” Types of drug abuse vary greatly. In the past several years, six major classifications have become legally and socially well defined. These are: marijuana derivitives, sedatives, barbiturates, hallucinogens, stimulants, and narcotics. Interestingly, under federal law, cocaine is defined as a narcotic. In contradiction, however, federal law also defines narcotics in general as a drug that both kills pain and causes sleep. Cocaine, however, stimulates the central nervous system, therefor making sleep difficult. What kind? The first classification, marijuana and derivatives, includes marijuana, hashish, thai, and kif. Very recently, several states have decriminalized marijuana, providing only for tines similar to parking violation penalties. These new policies are in marked contrast to legalization, which would remove all stigma from the use of this drug. Sedatives include Valium and Librium, two widely prescribed Valium is the most heavily-prescribed drug in the tranquilizers United States. though a Barbiturates are often confused with Tuinals, derivative of Barbituric acid. barbiturate is specifically a useful Though are all barbiturates. Seconals and Nembutals The and abused. widely medically, they are extremely dangerous be worse than the popular rapid withdrawal from barbiturates can conception of the terror of heroin withdrawal. LSD is one of the best known hallucinogens. These chemical compounds, synthetic and organic lead to unpredictable results since no two “trips” are necessarily similar. Also little concrete and/or reliable evidence is available concerning their long term effects. Many stimulants are being removed from the market by the Food and Drug Administration. Biphetamine, Preludin, and Amphetamine are all stimulants and pure amphetamine has already been banned due to high abuse potential. - Need, not desire Narcotics are the drugs that cause the most pain and anguish. Heroin, of course, is the most well known. Morphin and Panapon are also dangerous and often abused. These two, like heroin, are organic derivatives of opium, the product of. the poppy flower. There also exist many widely used synthetic (chemically fabricated) narcotics: Demerol, Dilaudid,and Codeine. Methadone is another synthetic narcotic used to “cure” heroin addiction, but in fact is itself addictive and even more physically debilitating. Probably the most euphoric of the narcotics is heroin, so developed to get named because it was thought to be a “Hero” morphine-addicted soldiers (who originally needed the less powerful narcotic to ease pain) completely off a narcotic habit. Beside the obvious problem of physical narcotic addiction, there remains the problems of psychological dependancy. Although physical withdrawal symptoms start within five days after the last “trip,” the real problem is to stay off the drugs once detoxified. The desire to keep high becomes a great necessity. This is where crime comes into the picture. The stereotype of the crazed, knife-wielding junkie who rapes little children is unfortunately pure, widespread propaganda, particularly because narcotics tend to pacify. Usually, the Junkie robs only to satisfy his habit, and resorts to violence only if he feels threatened.

There exists a strange mentality among addicted persons. It is common for an addict to rob his best friend without any real interruption in the friendship. This comes about because without the few friends a junkie may have, there is no one else he can relate to. Consequently, it is an accepted practice to a point. Opium was revered and romanticized at various times throughout history. Today, however, there is an enormous amount of both federal and state legislation which hampers drug usage. After many years of addiction among the working-class poor, there is perhaps a vast hypocrisy in a state government that so rapidly enacts legislation once addiction and abuse appears among suburban and upper-class whites.

The State University of New York (or as some choose to call it, SUNY Central) refninds me of George Orwell’s philosophically-oriented novel 1984. Why? Obviously because SUNY Central in Albany is engaged in monetary game, the objective of which is to amass as much “Big Brother”-like-control over some of the people who are needed to keep this system of higher education a going business concern, namely, the students. I am a student at this University. I am number 220299. 1 am a 24 year old junior, 1 guess. I question this because I have accumulated a little over sixty “credit hours” at a variety of institutions and, at last report from my advisor, no real decision has been made regarding where I do indeed stand, academically. 1 attended this University during the Meyerson reign, whem the four-credit hours per class was considered an innovation in American higher education. One feeling that was projected to the incoming students at that time was that one can learn from every experience, whether it be in the classroom, in a book, in a factory (where, by the way, I have spent almost two years), or wherever one happens to be. The motto of this University, as stated on a sign A standard for me and you To the Editor. ' what bullshit! Most students will perform (assuming have the will and capacity) to whatever standards they set for themselves, whether that student is taking 4 or 5 coursers or 1, 3, or 6 courses for that matter. The simple fact is that UB was a guilty participant (along with many others) in a general movement of the late sixties consisting of easing educational standards. The “four course load” is only one symptom amongst others (such as the S/U grading option and the general inflation of grades) of the same decease. The result has been neither better scholars nor better people. There is no standard test today that does not reflect a general decline in academic quality. The cause for this general movement was partly the fear of casting failing students to that hideous monster, the military draft. Most of it however, was a question of .getting carried away with the radical chic of the period. If you say something often enough, you start to believe it. The dangerous part of all this is that the abandonment of standards that demand real performance results in an abdication of personal responsibility for one’s performance. If you can’t cut it in a course, take it S/U! Why work harder or admit that you can’t measure up? Do you want to push your gradepoint average higher? Don’t work harder, they 1 saw somewhere, reads “Let each become all he is I would like to comment on the proposed end to the “four coqrse load,” as it seems to be causing a great gnashing of teeth amongst our student body. I feel uniquely qualified to inflict my views on others because (1) I have had the grand privilege of grinding through the U;B. mill twice as an undergraduate once in the early sixties when three hours credit was given for three contact hours and recently under the “four course load” system, and (2) I can afford to be unbiased as 1 am graduating this January. To all those who speak of the “four course load” as something progressive and worth defending and preserving all I can say is “whom do we think we are kidding?” If I have ever heard a more self-serving, self-pitying group of rationalizations than has been in The Spectrum these last few weeks concerning the passing away pf the hallowed “four course load,” I can’t remember when.. Why don’t we all face the facts? There is only one real reason for taking four courses instead of five it’s easier and less work. By this tremendous feat of legerdemain performed in the late sixties, we now have a college education composed of 32 courses capable of being.” On the other hand, 1 have heard from a number of other people, who inhabit space and time at this University, a dicotomoiis philsophy that goes something like “Shit or get off the pot.” Something is wrong, seriously wrong. The bits and pieces of imformation that I, Number 220299, have been able to receive these past few months, regarding where 1 stand with relation to .iy goal aspirations, has been highly unsatisfactory. I am beginning to believe that nice guys do indeed finish last in this society. This feeling has been compounded and amplified by the manner in which 1 have been treated throughout the course of this semester. My advisor’s response to the computer foul-up that screwed up my registration was “There’s no justice, no justice.” He is probably right. Another all too real example of the depressing aura that seems to cloak the entire system of higher education is the fact that I may not be able to re-register for the Spring ’77 semester because the 'loan I was granted by this University was erroneously used, by me, to pay my tuition. Although I figured paying my tuition was a relatively intelligent course of action to take, I have been informed that, against because of a computer foul-up in Albany with my TAP award, I will.not be able to re-register if 1 don’t pay my room charge. 1 was going to pay my room charge with my duly-earned TAP. TAP people apathetically erred also. Why? As anyone who has done any systems analysis can tell you, any computerized, electronic system is only as good as the people who use it. In other words, a Central Processing Unit (CPU) only outputs what has been humanly input. Therefore, in my mind anyway, other Homo Sapiens goofed, and I’m left with the responsibility, in effect, of correcting their mistakes. I’m justifiably angry. I also am mature enough to realize that the above narration may conceivably be explained away by many with the simple phrase, “That’s the nature of the game, turkey.” Well, so be it. I intend to continue my academic pursuits regardless of these — — — — of the more traditional 40-44 courses. Hosanna! The whole has suddenly become greater than the sum of its parts! Advances like this make take some soft courses where “A” and “B” grades you wonder if the story about the emperor’s new are handed out like candy. Or better yet, go to U.B., clothes aren’t true after all. What the “four course load” really represents is where you can get 4 hours of credit for doing 3 a simple debasement of a college education. It makes hours of work. Personally, I suppose I should be grateful for the comparability between colleges difficult to judge and opens to suspicion the quality of a graduating UB “four course load.” It has enabled me to telescope senior. It means that a major in a subject that 76 credit hours of work down to 16 months, of an impossible feat under the reactionary requires many courses gets less of the general school the old system.

Although mankind is divided when it comes to the choice of an economic system, there are innumerable areas where cooperation is indeed possible. Peace, freedom, and democracy these are values capable of undergirding projects in all spheres of human endeavor from disarmament to exploration of the sea. Although such a viewpoint does not preclude the possibility of confrontation, it at least views such confrontation in a positive light, as a prelude to cooperation on many diverse fronts.

The Bulls “A” team finished a disappointing thrid with 2219 pins, 107 pins behind second place Canisius. The Bulls hosted the tournament, which consisted of five teams. Niagara also accepted an invitation, but did not show up. The Bulls were behind from the beginning. After the second game, ECC and Canisius were battling for first while Buffalo was a distant third. Going into the thrid game, ECC remained on top with a total score of 1578. Canisius was close behind with a score of 1570 while Buffalo’s “A” and “B” teams were in third and fourth place respectively with scores of 1466 and 1397. coach rebuild team scores showed that ECC had increased its lead over the Bulls by 86 pins since the second game. The only bright spot of an otherwise gloomy day was Buffalo’s Gigi Ruddy, who achieved the high series of the day by bowling a 171, 161, and 199. Teammate Angie Stefanucci had a high game with 219. a disappointing performance for the were New York State Champions last winning performance was expected since Cindy Coburn and Sue Fulton, both nationally-ranked bowlers. Furthermore, ECC is not in Buffalo’s division. However, Canisius is in the Bulls division and their second place finish was a bit of an upset. It was Bulls, who year.

The key words for the '16—11 Bulls are experience and youth. As the two words imply, this year’s squad consists of many grapplers with carsity experience who are still sophomores or juniors. Of the ten individual weight classes, six are filled by returnees from last year’s team, while two others are filled by Bulls who saw limited varsity action last season. The final two slots will be filled by two junior college transfer students. Heading the list of Buffalo wrestlers are co-captains Bob Martineck (who wrestles at 150), and Kirk Anderson (158), Martineck, the only senior, will be joined by the other veteran Bulls, sophomores Tony Oliveri (118), Ed Tyrrell (134), Gene Tundo (142), and Kurt Linske (heavyweight), and juniors Ray Pfeifer (126), and Rick Bopp (190). Jeff Wheeler, a ransfer from Corning Community College, compete the list of Buffalo grapplers in ’76. In analyzing this year’s team, Michael revealed that, “We have a glaring problem at the upper weights, but our strength lies at the lighter and middle weights.” Michael added that “improvement is to be gained through experience, and this year’s team has more experience than last year’s Call home. Tell Mom you’re alive without killing your budget. team” If last week’s ThanksigiVing Invitational,Tournament for freshmen and sophomores at Corning CC is any indication of what’s in store for Buffalo fans this season, then there may be a sun shining in the Buffalo weather yet. “We have some good young kids,” said an enthusiastic Michael., V Michael’s young Bulls did quite well fonthemselves, as they placed fifth out of twenty-six participating schools. The Bulls were edged out of fourth place in team scoring by a slim few points, while six Bulls placed. Placing in their respective weight classes were: Oliveri (3rd), Steve Tripodi (4th), Tyrrell (1st), John Hughes (2nd), Doug Tingue (1st), and Gary Devin (6th). This Saturday, the Buffalo grapplers will open up their home schedule by facing the Nitfany Lions of Penn State, the defending champions of the Eastern Wrestling League.

The city's schools, universities, and many businesses ground to a halt on Tuesday, wreaking havoc on the lives of brave motorists and pedestrians. Life s|owly returned to normal on Wednesday but then came Thursday and a• second dose of blizzard. The extended outlook? Snow, of course. — The Spectrum State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 27, No. 41 More student newspaper/government Friday, 3 December 1976 conflict CCNY Senate may cut off newspaper’s funds by Brett Kline Feature k'ditor The Student Senate of City College of New York will whether to cut off funds for The Campus, the student largest newspaper there, and officially revoke its charter. The Senate voted last Wednesday to suspend the printing of the seventy-year old paper, claiming it “had received many comments from faculty, administrators and Senate members concerning The Campus’ news coverage.” Although relations between the Senate (student government) and The Campus have been strained throughout the year, the call to suspend and possibly revoke the paper’s charter was based on certain articles concerning actions of the Senate, and editorials criticizing these actions, according to Editor-in-Chief Dale Ericht-a. The first incident occurred last May when The Campus printed an editorial denouncing the newly-elected Senate for threatening both a reporter and the future of The Campus itself, Brichta said. Senate members angrily denied the charges. vote today Political favor Brichta also said that on October 15 of this year, The Campus printed what the Senate called “unfavorable” accounts of the hiring of a new lawyer for the Legal Aid Center. She personally felt that the hiring of the lawyer. William Lake, was a political favor to City Clerk David Dinkins, who had recommended Lake for the job. The Campus reported that Lake had been hired at the rate of forty dollars an hour, three times the rate of last year. This was disputed by student ombudsman, Thorne Brown, who is responsible for the lawyer’s hiring. On November 12, The Campus ran a photo on a forum of the College’s chapter of American Association of University Professors termed “poor” by Brichta which focused on one professor, Bernard Bellush, who is white. A history professor, Stanley Page, then drafted and read a letter to the Senate Student and Faculty Senates, accusing the paper of “distorting the facts” and being “biased” in its coverage. The Wednesday following the photo, an editor of the Observation Post, another on-campus newspaper, called Brichta and told her that the Senate had met and suspended The Campus. Brichta noted, “No one was given an agenda for the meeting. Common courtesy and protocol were not followed.” Senate meetings are not usually covered by The Campus. — — Charges against paper The newspaper is being brought up on the following charges, according to Student Senator Hugh Lawrence, and an unidentified member of the investigating committee: Distortion of truth, misrepresentation of facts, malignment of the characters of certain individuals and — invasion of the privacy of certain others. Violation of the Board of Higher Education Policy Manual Violation of City College Handbook on Student Organizational Finances on issues governing the printing of newspapers and journals. Violation of the same handbook, specifically the Department of Student Personal Services, concerning finances and fiscal irresponsibility. Neither spokesman from the Student Senate would elaborate on the charges of fiscal irresponsibility. On November 15, the New York Times quoted an editorial by Brichta which stated: “The Senate’s indiscriminant lack of courtesy, protocol, and knowledge of First Amendment rights, coupled with its complete lack of understanding as to the workings of a professional newspaper, cause us to question their right to exist.” Brichta said last Wednesday, “1 think they will vote to suspend. The administration will have to step in at that point, 1 think. I will print anyway.” She pointed out that The Campus had already spent its Senate allocation of $5300 and was now subsisting entirely on advertising revenue. The Campus has been publishing weekly since 1907 and has a circulation of 12,000. Its publication funds were suspended once before, in 1940, by an alumrti group called the Campus Association, over alleged participation in so-called radical activities. - — - �the police networks. In fact, a few investigating the recent bombing murder of former Chilean ambassador Orlando Letelier have been the victims of agents (CPS) In case, you were wondering. Guru Maharaj Ji; the plump "Perfect Master” who heads the Divine Light Mission, no longer pushes people into swimming pools. That was the nature of a nasty rumor floating around Divine Light circles since late this summer, but it was recently squelched by Maharaj Ji’s personal - secretary, John Miller. Asked by Light Reading, the Divine Light Mission’s bi-weekly newspaper, if these rumors of Perfect Master mischief-making were true. Miller responded, “1 don’t think that’s happened in a long time. The last time he was in a pool in Los Angeles, he just invited all the premmies (followers) , up who had been doing service in the community and let them experience a day of relaxatidn. Everybody was in the pool and nobody got thrown in.” The Guru, who has been accused by his mother of being a “spoiled playboy,” and by legal authorities of being an international diamond smuggler, students with a comprehensive study of many campus taverns,” the handbook states.,.

Not so, thought A1 Pendorf and Marc Demmon, two Aspenites who decided what Aspen needed so they started was a college Aspen State is its name, one and it really doesn’t exist. But ever since last December, when they came up with the idea, the — - pair has been pulling in between $500 and $1,000 a week by pushing such items as Aspen State handbooks, T-shirts, pennants, mugs, decals, I.D. cards, baseball caps and parking stickers. They dubbed Aspen State the “Brooms,” and even issued an imaginary school emblem that pictures crossed skis with a broom in the center. “At first it was a real joke,” explains Pendorf, a University of Michigan grad. "We wrote a college handbook and gave away copies to friends. Then requests started coming in. In February, we launched our enterprise with T-shirts.” In the Aspen State handbook, Pendorf assumes the title of Dean of Women and Equipment manager.

The booklet called “The Menopause: A New Life of Confidence and Contentment” was distributed to physicians by the tens of thousands. Each of its 34 pages contained a comic strip which printed questions asked and answered by an Ogden, Utah obstetrician.

Doctors have jumped on the brand-wagon when it comes to advertising the estrogen pills and one Brooklyn.

One of the most , dubious drugs still being is approval without FDA prescribed diethylstilbestrol (DES), a synthetic estrogen pill recommended to women who are prone to miscarriage. The DES pill is also being commercially marketed to post menopausal women as a “youth drug.” Sometimes mistaken for vitamins, the pills have been blindly swallowed on schedule by at least 500,000 and possibly as many as 2 million women since 1940. In 1970, DES was linked tb a form of vaginal cancer that was turning up in women whose mothers were administered DES during pregnancy. Eight cases of this type of cancer were reported in New England and verified by Massachusetts General Hospital which maintains a registry of the clear cell adenocarcinoma. Of 280 known cases, 40 have died of the cancer and two-thirds were connected to DES usage. No cases have been reported in 2708 women University in 1 968. Davis claimed in 1970 that there was a 1.1 percent pregnancy rate among women fitted with the Shield.

Finally around, the doors are unlocked and the students pour in. Before long, everything is taken. That was not the scene in front of a ticket booth but rather the bizarre spectacle of job-hungry students arriving, at 2:45 a.m. at the University’s Business school placement office.

Currently, unemployment is hovering at the 7.8 percent level overall; it’s 12.7 percent for blacks, 18.6 percent for teenagers and 40 pe’fcent for black teenagers in cities. Thbse figures are the highest since the Depression and one should keep in mind those are the government’s figures many experts put the overall rate at 10.5 percent with all other figures dozens of points higher than what Uncle Sam says they are. The basic reason for this jobless mess is imple, economists agree: the economy is just not able to generate enough work for everyone who wants a job. It’s true that there are more people working than ever before, but at the same time there are also many more people not working who want or need a job. One major reason is that women have entered accordingly. But won’t things get better like they always do?

Students at this University should not merely accuse the Division of the Budget of adversely manipulating the crediting system at SUNY, using financial, and not academic, considerations. Let us first realize that the SUNY Central memorandum, mandating the course-load change, does allot for justification of alternate systems. This is not the first time that the four-course load has been threatened; in fact, the issue has surfaced annually since 1969, and then somehow, quietly, plunged back into the ground. For years, proponents of the four-course load have breathed sighs of relief as the minor crises passed, naively setting aside the problem for another year This year, however, the University was caught with its pants down by an Albany administrator who refused to be appeased with intangible, inconclusive double-talk. It is understandable that the Division of the Budget is attempting to eliminate our dollar-swallowing nonconformity, since it has been given no hardcore evidence that this unique policy Exposed Amherst garbage To the Editor 1 was walking past Fronezak and the future union on Amherst the other day and I happened to concrete tins being used as trash Looking inside I saw something that resembled a pop art centerpiece at a ladies’ garden club luncheon: Coke cans, Pepsi cans, cups, and newspapers mixed with straws, paper wads and pine cones all imbedded in a block of ice.

Unless garbage collections are made with ice tongs then trash containers should be covered.

C’mon, Maintenance where are those trash can lids? - Brian Douglas is beneficial to students The University has created its own death trap by not seeking data which would determine the relative value of the four-course load. We are not such die-hard fans of the four-course load that we can demand, without qualification, that the University preserve the present system. While the four-course load was originally considered innovative and promising, there is no documented evidence that it has been veritably beneficial to University students. Supposing, then, the system has been detrimental; without interference of the Division of the Budget, students would continue indefinately to receive a compromising education. On the other hand, if the reverse is true, that is, if the four-course load has truly broadened and deepened education, then the submissive decision of an indolent faction of this University to return without question to a poorer system, is a pathetically wasteful, cowardly mistake.

Friday, 3 December 1976 �Violence is the theme at Pfeifer and Harriman Two acclaimed modern dramas Atholl Fugard's The Blood Knot and Israel Horovitz' The Indian Wants The Bronx will be performed under the auspices of the UB Theatre Department as part of the Department's symposium on "Violence in Theatre." The Blood Knot will be presented tonight thru Sunday, December 5, and Thursday thru Sunday, December 9 thru 12, at the Pfeifer Theatre, Lafayette and Hoyt; The Indian Wants The Bronx runs Tuesday, December 7, thru Sunday, December 12, at the Harriman Theatre Studio. Performances of both plays begin at 8 p.m. each night. Fugard himself describes the basic idea of The Blood Knot: "I am a South African white skinned. There are three million of us. There are also twelve million dark-skinned South Africans." His play is a one white, one two-character drama, and his characters are brothers black, both sharing a meager existence in a South African port. - . — » — 'Into the maws of hell Their relationship is an abrasive one, reflecting th,e larger aspects of the rift between white and black. Yet Fugard reveals a great sensitivity and poignance, and refused to stereotype; he has lived much of his play, and he makes the experience meaningful, above all, on a human level. He describes the climax of the play: "At the end, the very end of the play, after a game which had the brothers looking into the maws of hell, and which they will surely play after this game and again tomorrow night, and the night after that just before sleep, the dark-skinned brothers asks, 'What is it, Morrie? in here?' The two of us . . . you know "The light-skinned brother replies, 'Home.' The other then asks: Ms there no other way?' Morris' reply is told at the very end of the — ... play Saul Elkin, chairman of the Theatre Department, plays the white-skinned brother, Morris; Ed Smith, Professor of Black Studies and adjunct professor of the Theatre Department, plays the dark-skinned brother, Zachariah, and directed the production. 'Indian Israel Horovitz' The Indian Wants the Bronx is the winner of an Obie Award as best off-broadway play of 1971, and drew nationwide attention to Horovitz as a major new playwright. The UB production is directed by Ray Munrd, graduate fellow of the Center for Theatre Research, whose previous directing credits include The Alley Between Our Two Houses at UB last year. Tickets for both plays are $1 for students and senior citizens, $2.50 for the public, and are available in advance at the Norton Ticket Office, and at the respeqtive theatre box offices. Due to the limited seating capacity of both theatres, advance ticket purchase is advised.

It's one of the most difficult instruments in the world to play, and Moloney, a piper since before his teens, handles them brilliantly. After the pipes, the fiddle is the Irish folk instrument, and the Chieftains have two fiddlers. Martin Fay specializes in the gentle, graceful airs, and Sean Keane in the lightning-fast jigs and , reels, full of rich embellishment. Derek Bell fills out.the string section on Irish harp; classically trained, he brings a virtuoso's technique to a folk musician's instructive trained, he brings a virtuoso's technique to a folk musician's instinctive feel for the heart of a song. Especially fine are his versions of the music of the great folk harper, Carolan; Bell's playing of Cardan's "Farewell to at Music" Kleinhans was heart-stopping in its beauty. Michael Tubridy is perhaps the most versatile of the group, playing flute, pennywhistle, and concertina with equal skill. By contrast, Sean Potts sticks to the whistle, but he can blow magic out of the shrill, airy tones of this simplest of instruments. Finally, youngest and the newest provies Conneff, Chieftain, Keven (a with bodrhan percussion drum) hand-held single-headed, and bones. The Chieftains began with what was originally intended to be a one-shot record for the Irish folk label Claddagh. That first effort resulted in so many international invitations to concerts and festivals that three more followed, the group growing from five to seven. But the group still held onto their day jobs seeing the music as secondary "Until last year", says Moloney I never promoted the group Making the fashionable Last year, though, was when the Chieftains emerged from their reputation subterranean as international folk favorites and broke into the mainstream. They signed with a major label, Island; their fifth album, called simply Chieftains 5, became a moderate hit by pop standards, and thus a blockbuster by folk ones; and England's leading music paper. -continued on page 8— �Chieftains Melody Maker, named them Group of the Year, "for making unfashionable music fashionable".

Many Irish looked to Napoleon as a romantic hero, or even a liberator from England's tyrrany, and the music paints that picture vividly. They were, and are, a dynamite dance band: the album's last track, a medley of slides, is sheer disposal, Moloney's arrangements delight, thanks oartly to the bring a never-before-heard depth dancers who kicked up their heels to music that can seem, on the with the group.

I guess I just can't accept the fact that people get old and change. Especially when that change is for the worse. It remains fresh in my mind when Burt Cummings was one of those freaks. At that time, the radical viewpoints of "Hand Me Down World" and "Share the Land," which didn't get airtime from many of the Buffalo stations due to its "implied Communist overtones," were held by many and the Guess Who produced some of the best pop rock material which have now become classics. I remember seeing the Guess Who in the Aud, featuring Cummings, the Canadian Rogue, unshaven with his hair back in a ponytail and donning a sloppy Montreal Canadians' sweatshirt. He was as rebellious as ever, and, although the group played many of the favorites, the show proved to be a lackluster performance. At one point, it even got a little upsetting' It was during "American Woman" when Cummings began to adlib, inserting the phrases America! slut, American whore, which, I must admit, began to churn my nationalistic blood. Point 1. This song is a perfect indication of the entire album; a very dominate overplaying of Cummings' piano and vocals. i Point 2. Cummings has no intentions of discouraging commercialism, even at the expense of his honorable past in the music field. Point 3. It may never go to court, but after one listening, one will easily see that this album is a rip-off in a number of senses of the word. "I'm Scared" is one of the songs Cummings wrote for this album. It has the general theme "no atheists in foxholes" and it not only borrows lines from "Silent Night" but also some of the bars. Along with Cummings' "original material" he performs a number of copy songs. One is called "Niki Hokey" and it's a real oldie but moldie. This is followed by a song called "Sugartime Flashback Joys" and after listening to the two of these back to back, one has to think of Shirley Ellis' "The Name Game." For example: Unsatisfactory performance Then again, it wasn't so much nationalism as it was immaturity that was bothering me. It just seemed to serve no purpose. The concert finally ended and I walked out frustrated (to say the least). So I went home and put on "The Best of" and my faith was somewhat restored. I decided that the concert was more a matter of the Guess Who not wanting to perform rather than being unable to entertian. Well, the purpose of all this discussion of the past is to stress the point that even when Cummings and the Guess Who were bad, they were Oldie, but I might as well start with the present-day commercial hit, "Stand Tall." I recently heard some local disc jockeys commenting on the authenticity of Take me on the scooby-doo Gonna take you on the scooby-di Ooh-pooh-pooh you, ooh-pooh-pooh Listener support lolly body Miss Molly ' Attitude He also assualts an old Ray Charles' song called "That's Enough" which is what I screamed about after hearing it. But the funniest part of the album is his Spoof of Randy Bachman's "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet." I'm not really sure if this song was intended to be a joke, but that's how it ended up. It features Cummings on piano and lead vocals with a sleazo Peter Gunn horn accompaniment in the background and the final' product is a sound that would rival any smoke-filled cocktail lounge. Granted that vocally, Cummings has the potential to excell above many of today's pop rock singers. I think again, as in the past with the Guess Who, it's not a matter of talent but attitude. His selection of songs (Niki Hokey?) along with his interpretation of others (You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet) is poor. And as for original song writing, his philosophy is evident: mass production' equals commercialism and bucks. I think someone should inform Burton that there's more to life than Super Max blow dryers and Sears leisure suits. lit ||f)lsney Spend Christmas Vacation FLORIDA WorldCHOICE...DAYTONA BEACH OR ORLANDO YOUR LEAVE BUFFALO 8 pm Dec. 25 RETURN 3 pm Jan. 2 ROUND TRIP EXPRESS CHARTER BUS TRANSPORTA TION 6 NIGHTS AT YOUR CHOICE OF TWO HOTELS A DAY AT DISNEY WORLD INCLUDING TRANSPORTATION ENTRANCE & BOOK OF TICKETS CONTINENTAL BREAKFAST OR KITCHENETTE Per Person er P erson J1 J1 7Q QQ Per Child / - • • FRYE . | Double HERMAN Guys Gals Sizes & * H ** Sharing Quad EASTER TRIP ALSO AVAILABLE April 8-16 TIMBERLRND SKI QUEBEC MONT STE.

Friday, 3 December 1976 Prodigal Sun �Phobe sings like falling snow to icy audience by Denise Stumpo Spectrum Staff Writer From gray and grimy Main Street I passed through the looking glass into a red velvet where chandeliers mansion, sparkled and gilded portraits adorned the walls. Taking the marble staircase to the lounge level, I got a striking ultraviolet view of the stage below. It was then that I snapped back to reality. This was Shea's Buffalo Theater and Phobe Snow was singing tonight. The opening man couldn't make it. Bat McGrath played instead of Richie Havens, who was ill. A small line formed for ticket refunds but most of the audience didn't put up a fight. They had come to hear the lady. And what an audience it was. In evidence everywhere were The Beautiful People wearing Beautiful Clothes and Beautiful Bored Expressions. They continued to file to their seats all through the opening set. McGrath was in good form though and elicit few managed to a fashionable titters. "Old people are so cool, they know they're on the way out," he said. "They love to goof on you after they've smoked a few numbers." He feels strongly aboug aging though, as he proved in "Cool Breeze," a tune as smooth as its title. Downs in your food 80 years of trying Now they treat you like a fool His strong soft voice became flowing part of his music country with a twang of jazz.- Bat — featured a few songs from his brand new ablum, Blue Eagle. As he sang in the title cut about the joys of getting high, a man with a large flashlight even caught cigarette smokers in the act. (Smoking is prohibited in the newly reupholstered seats.) His glaring presence was disturbing throughout the evening. When McGrath had finished playing, he received cheers but did not reappear and the crowd did not demand it. — Pictures on TV Snow came trucking out in black and white on a red sky. She got right into it with "Standing on Shaky Ground," a rocker that could jazz up even an old pain definitely the rowdiest song of the night. Next she seduced a very willing group of the audience. It was soul in the spotlight all the way and when she sang: — Starting from the A B C of it Right down to the X Y Z of it Teach me tonight they would have loved to. Phobe started swaying with her co-vocalists, Roy Galloway and Michael Gray. The three of them looked like old friends. "What we were doing was shuffling off to Buffalo," she later elucidated. "I but we can also tap dance mustn't get into that." Of course she proceeded to do so, t6 the stamos and whistles of the crowd. — Background was lighting impressive: multicolor projections that faded and changed with the mood of each song. A deep blue snowflake behind the lonlies: another crazy weekend up the hill down the pill all alone you feel a chill think I'm going off the deep end "Shine, Shine" was a feel good written song, about her daughter, "because she's kind of glowy and shiny now." Snow used a kind of yodel which blended in,well with the slightly choppy beat. newly-born Before Sound Guard, the only way to prevent your records from wearing out was not to play them. The villain behind this destruction is friction. (If a diamond cuts through steel, you can imagine what a diamond stylus does to vinyl records.) Fortunately, from outer space has come a solution to record degradation. It’s called Sound Guard* A by-product of research into dry lubricants for aerospace applications,. Sound Guard record preservative puts a microscopically-thin (less than 0.000003") dry film on records to protect the grooves from damage. Yet, remarkably, it does not degrade fidelity.

The woman is definitely sexy. When she said, "Play it loose, man," the band did a great ad lib and she shreiked up a storm. Oozing Snow is big enough to give full-bodied song, but we can't hold that against her, especially since she confessed about her dieting failure. "I bought 14 boxes of Figurines and ate them all in one sitting." Broad chords introduced a clear "Fat Chance." Her voice was oozing out of that body, pouring and ample somehow becoming absorbed into the air around me and then right into me, through my ears, nose, eyes and open mouth. Her soul-slow version of "Don't Let Me Down" had me convinced that the Beatles had never done it better. I found myself howling as I recognized the early eerie strains of "Poetry Man," Rhode's big hit single of two years ago. The petals of two flowers were falling, blending into each other as a sax interlude poured out rivulets of soft notes. Drummer Gerald Beaudre used a subtle shaggy hand for "Mercy on Those," from the new Looks Like Snow album. It surprisingly in ended berbershop-type harmony. The crowd seemed receptive but was severely lacking in warmth, rhythm, soul and general arousal. They laughed at all the right places and gave the expected spray of applause at the start and finish of each number. But they did not reflect the atmosphere that Snow was trying desperately to create. "Life is so precious. You can't fool around with it," warned Phobe. With this in mind she sang another song written for her daughter. It turned from poignant to plastic however when a metal rock guitar took over its beat, drowning out the sweet emotion. good.

Prodigal Sun © 1976 Friday, 3 December This time the audience demanded an encore. Snow came out trilling "operatic disco" while using a throat spray. "F.E.H. Feh!" she exclaimed to the amusement of my Jewish companion. The singers gave a gospel overlap intro to a slow rendition of the new single recorded with Paul Simon. "I've had a long streak of bad luck, but I pray it's gone at last." Phoebe Snow's bad luck with audience is bound to improve as soon as she gets out of Buffalo, 1976 . The Spectrum . Page eleven �Melanie, Photograph (Altantic) It has been said that rock music (and all music, for that matter) is essentailly sexual a statement very hard to dispute. Music has made sex symbols out of the most unlikely artists, like David Bowie and Elton John, while many other performers, such as John Travolta, have become the most unlikely musical stars because of their aura of — RECORDS sexuality. This phenomenon has become much more pronounced in the mid-seventies, causing many musicians of the sixties to either undergo drastic changes in style or fade away completely. Melanie is unfortunately one of the latter. She must be near 30, but her face and her music still project the same childlike innocence they did eight years ago. Her latest album. Photograph, does not give any indication that she is willing to change that image. This is not to say that Photograph is a carbon copy of her two previous efforts. Rather, it shows a number of advances and an equal number of retreats. It is rather inconsistent (which may be a serious flaw), but its high points are much better than anything she has recorded in the past two years, and are almost enough to make its low points bearable. Most of these high points are contained in two songs. The first one opens up side two; entitled "I'm So Blue," it features a haunting melody and a beautiful, jazz-tinged arragement, highlighted by a saxaphone solo by Art Pepper. The song reminds one vaguely of Joni Mitchell, and the lyrics are among the most emotional that Melanie has ever written. "I'm So Blue" represents a new direction for her, one which she would be wise to follow. The second song worth noting is called "Raindance," and it is a dance as light, graceful, airy and joyous as a ballet. This effect is enhanced by its fine arrangement, which borrows heavily from Billy Joel's "Piano Man" but still preserves the song as a Melanie creation. Regrettably, these two are the only cuts that are not plagued by some defect or other. However, there are several compositions in which the problems are not too great. "Photograph," for example, has a nice, very interesting melody, a fitting arrangement and good lyrics. Melanie ruins it, though, by using a voice comparable to that of a 1920's salesman of elixirs or other junk. "Nickel Song" is similarly destroyed, not only by the vocal, but also by an arrangement that seems a »bit too contrived. Melanie describes it as “a child who has grown and matured," yet, in the opinion of this reviewer, the child was infinitely more enjoyable. Most of the remaining songs are run-of-the-mill Melanie compositions are neither extraordinarily good nor extraordinarily bad, entertaining but not accomplished enough to be memorable. "Secret of the Darkness" evokes images of "Ring the Living Bell', and represents one of those musical retreats mentioned earlier. "Cyclone" is forceful, "If I Needed You"- and "Friends & Co." are not, and none of them deserves any more mention. Melanie covers only one song on Photograph: the old Box Top's hit, "The Letter." As expected, it is a long, drawn out, boring thing; unlike her female contemporaries, she is a terrible interpreter of other people's material. This tune," "Groundhog Day," and "Save Me" are the absolute low points of the album. The latter two are too aimless and monotonous even to be listenable, and sound as if very little time or energy were put into their production. It is fortunate that these songs do not dominate the album, for they would change a nondescript effort into a forgettable one. Photograph, as mentioned before, has some material that could give Melanie's music a new and perhaps more successful direction. Let's hope she realizes this before it it too late. —Eugene Zielinski — BUFFALO PHILHARMONIC Michael Tilson Thomas, Music Director $2.50 BARGAIN Student Rush Tickets A ailable 30 Minutes Before a Concert With Proper Identification Kleinhans Music Hall Check Norton Union Ticket Office for Dates, Programs COMING Henryk Szeryng, violinist, 8:30 pm, Dec. 4; 2:30 pm, Dec. 5 Handel's Messiah, Robert Cole, conductor, 8 pm Dec. 11; 2:30pm Dec. 12 Council Opticians EYES EXAMINED NO APPOINTMENT NECESSARY • • GLASSES MADE WHILE YOU WAIT IN MOST CASES CONTACT LENSES (including soft) • Buffalo, Lafayette Sq-853-5133 Clarence, Transitown Plaza-633-2440 West Seneca-3525 Seneca-674-8300 Page twelve .

On Big Beat these often Sparks is a prime example.

Perhaps the Mael brothers have finally realized A possible exception to this might be "White this, for Big Beat represents an unusual but not Women", which displays a nice, simple guitar entirely surprising change for them. Like so may arrangement and lyrics which are quite funny, if not other British bands, Sparks have turned to heavy taken too seriously: metal.

Vocalist Russ Mael sounds bored throughout most of the material, and the songs themselves are hardly among the best that Ron Mael has written. Mael has always composed tunes that lend themselves well to keyboard arrangements; he has not changed his style here, and the result is that most of the songs sound awkward at best and Usually, it is up to the critics to find out what Is' wrong (or right) about a a group and/or an album but Big Beat has one song that almost makes this review unnecessary. In it, the syndrome of the seventies is accurately depicted; since Sparks are effectively a phenomenon of this decade, it describes them equally as well: Screwed up, that's the problem You're going down, down, down, down, down obnoxious at worst. This situation is not at all Screwed up, that's your problem helped by guitarist Jeffrey Salen, who shows little You're comirig unwound, wound, wound, finesse and no restraint at all in playing his wound, wojund instruments. You're wasting time seeking comfort The distinguishing talen of Sparks, however, has From any sight or any sound always been their ability to produce some of the knew you when you weren't a bit screwed up wittiest and most off-beat lyrics ever found in Now what you got is spreading around. popular music, but even this has declined since the release of Kimono My House. Each song on that Nothing more needs to be said -Eugene Zielinski / Don McLean, Solo (United Artists) You remember Don McLean, don't you? That's right. He's the folk singer no one knew in 1971, became a superstar in 1972, and no one knew again in 1973. When "American Pie" was sitting on the top of the charts, McLean had his face splattered on the cover of Time magazine, was nominated for several Grammy Awards, and was frequently a guest on prominent television shows. Since then, however, McLean has seldom been seen in magazines, has not been nominated for any awards, and the only guest appearances he has made are in the discount and budget bins of record stores. So what ever happened to Don McLean? Not very much, actually. Since American Pie, his most famous and best album, he has had three more studio albums: Don McLean, Playin' Favorites, and Homeless Brother, each one selling more poorly than its predecessor. With the weak sales of these ablums, and of his first album, Tapestry , it is hard for one to get excited or to expect much from his newest recording venture, Solo. With his album, McLean has jumped onn "the bandwagon:" Solo is another in the recent rash of double live sets. If the thought of Don McLean in' concert does not excite you, neither will this LP, Certainly members of the dwindling McLean cult will buy this album, but will record buyers swarm to their area record stores and dole out the price of a double album to hear Don McLean live? I think not. This album is definitely not a Frampton Comes Alive, but, by the same token, neither is it a McLean Falls Dead. This album, if nothing else, does boast McLean's fine song-writing talents. "Vincent," "Empty Chairs," and "Three Flights Up" are lyrically superb. But songwriting does not an album make. A good album should also have strong vocals, professional musicianship, and diverse arrangements. This is where McLean falls short. Solo, as its name implies, is McLean alone. He accompanies himself on banjo and folk guitar, and has no back-up singers or musicians. Whether he performs alone for economy or for convenience, I do not know. But he is sacrificing some of his best songs by doing it. A minor hit from the Homeless Brother album, "Wonderful Baby," was particularly enjoyable in its studio form because of its angelic female harmonies. However, in its live unaccompanied form, anything formerly good this song is lost. It has. gone from a coy, light song tp a pointless nonsense song. The biggest disappointment of this album is the McLean classic, "American Pie." Gone is the magic this song originally possessed, magic that once had a nation humming its incredible melody. Gone is the piano, the one feature of the nine minute studio recording which bound the loose ends together. Gone are the drums and electric instruments which made this song a rock and roll as well as a folk classic. And gone are the strong vocals which had the media predicting superstar status for McLean. Instead, in their place, is an ever present reminder that Don McLean is on the verge of becoming a has-been, a performer who missed his chance at reaching the heights predicted of him. But McLean is not surprised by the drastic turn his career took after "American Pie." On his Don McLean album, the one immediately, following American Pie, and afso on the Solo album, there is an autobiographical song called "Dreidel," a searching look at insecurity and stardom. In this song, McLean accurately predicts that his future is black, and that the "sky shoes" that were to raise him to superstar heights, "are spiked with lead heels." Although McLean never came to be a superstar, he is a respected and talented folksinger. And Solo, despite its obvious faults, has its high points. "Babylon" is beautiful, as McLean has divided the audience into three groups who then sing the song in rounds as he accompanies them on guitar. The album also reveals some of the McLean humor in several of the songs. But on the whole, Solo is quite poor. It is a desperate attempt at winning back his audience, and I'm afraid it is a failure. To take liberty with some of the "American Pie" lyrics, think it is safe to say: Bye, bye Mr. Don McLean. This is the day your music died. -Bob McCrone I Prodigal Sun �David Laflamme, White Bird (Amherst) i As the sticker on the jacket of this album says, David Lafliamme is the former writer, vocalist, violinist, and leader of It's A Beautiful Day. That band enjoyed a moderate amount of success, and their two most popular (recognizable) hits have been rearranged and recorded to lead off this Laflamme release,. David has surrounded himself with a group of unknown, inexperienced musicians to rekindle his musical career: the accompanying female singer is a new, raw, vocally-untrained talent (though she sings at least as well as David); the person David chose as his guitarist could not play the guitar at the time; and the band's "keyboard man'' is a teenage child prodigy from Rochester, who helps Laflamme write and arrange songs. The two remarks, “White Bird" and "Hot Summer Day", are all right; I liked the original "White Bird" better, but prefer the new version of "Hot Summer Day." It is basically a matter of personal taste; these new versions are more controlled and restrained, more professional, and consequently, less lively. The entire album is recorded well, although the tracks seem a bit empty because Laflamme avoided the recently popular practice of adding orchestration (the indiscriminate use of 1001 Strings or the Boston Pops to give even the least original song an air of professionalism.) "Swept Away" concludes side one. It is the least orthodox (and probably the best) cut on the album: a fast paced, pseudo-jazz/muzak instrumental ballad. If that description leaves you cold, liken it to a cross between Kansas and Genesis playing department store music. The tempo slows abruptly several times, each time gradually regaining momentum. There is no focal point or climax, and the song ends unexpectedly, a welcome change from the overworked "fade-out" Patti Smith, Radio Ethiopia (Arista) Patti Smith is a part of life like all the short if the stories stories you ever felt impassioned by could approach living, if they could etch imagery on your fleshy soul, they would approach the impact of himself/ He pisses urine which philosophizes to/ grimy, sly, waxy floor and reaches the door/ c her work. Patti slips into personal expression when she ponders love between two in a way common to all. "Ain't it Strange" melds what is shocking in the world with what is usually tensely guarded and private. The song reveals the masses while reading love thoughts and heart talks: — — Patti pushes into people's senses as a poet. As one winds through the Gotham Book Mart in New York City, the pumping collage of people flows into controlling depths in a bottomless pit. the mind You buy her book, Witt, you read and buy her and you become her. Her prisoner, origins, her life lauding her words, her slave your slave.

So the nervous memories edge their way to the foreground. Yes, Patti Smith has released a new album called Radio Ethiopia. The high priestess of rock spirals her way into your mind. It is the burgeoning poetic mind that will consume the album those who ending crave creativity. The mood changes radically on the flipside: Laflamme undergoes accurately, Bruce Patti's previous release, Horses, emitted a or more Jekyll/Hyde transformation, a sensual creativity which delved into personal Springsteen/Disco Duck. The Duck is predominant in “Easy Woman" and "This Man," the former being strictly disco-based, although the narrations of love and violence. Each song rose, latter begins with a very un-Disco instrumental passage. The choruses peaked and ended with Patti's voice controlling the story's drama. The tempo was paced slowly and are hell, however. deliberately, in ironic compatibility with each Movin on down the highway poem's devastating plot. Horses' production was Doot doot doot innovative enough that one could listen to the album It's lonely on the road repeatedly and conceive different images each time a Dootdoot doot sone was played. Radio Ethiopia is inventive, although through a Etcetera. The dances are danceable, semi-innovaJive, and contain more entirely separate from that of Horses.

Poets who relate to the public's private thoughts capture the raptured minds of those who maintain a purpose of casual hearing when buying records. Folks become mesmerized when what they hear yields a pleasurable sensation which is viable with their most secret, uncommon thoughts. Pleasurable, but at the same time unique and strange people are fearful. Private thoughts are supposed to be unknown, untapped. However, Smith's raw psychic powers can't even be surreal. Thoughts are shaped by what you read into them. Patti plays on primal urges which are locked within the mind, and secret responses tapped by wily and contrived stimuli give way to responses which are direct and erect. Such feelings are portrayed by the writer's tuned metaphors. But tuning to radio station ethipoia is so much more than simple contrivance. Patti's voice jtself is a metaphor for her writing. It oozes in almost animal-like response to the poet's senses. She is amazed with herself, and her world and her voice crows like a cock full of pride. How natural is it? She loved drugs to make all her qualities hyperbolic. The poet snorts poppies' yield op record to accent her story. The exaggeration works for her — — mainly, against her at times during the song "Poppies." She builds to an allusion, forming a simile w.hich becomes trite: "...

Rubin Special Features Editor Buffalo. But if a five course load is instituted, the amount of work per semester will increase to 5x. Now since 5x is greater than 4x the five.course load system will require - more work. Right? Right. But stop that snickering five course loaders. ,You are not without fault either, Why is some joker at SUNY Central so worried about course diversity that he wants to impose a major change like the five course load. Really now. I can’t imagine why Buffalo , Through the good graces of the State of New York and the other shadowy bodies that exercise ultimate control over this schdol, it appears that for all of us who are not graduating in the near future, course loads will be increasing 25 percent. Yes, Buffalo is about to conform to the scheduling system of colleges and universities everywhere; three credit courses and five credit semesters in order to'reach graduation after four years. It is a traumatic experience no doubt. Supporters of the four course load propound all sorts of theories about how its reduced classroom time lends itself to “alternative vehicles of education.” They claim that students who come to Buffalo seek out this freer form of learning and that to eliminate it would be some terrible blow to progressive education. Supporters of the five course load claim that students will be able to take more courses, and that departments will be able to offer more courses, and the teachers teaching them will be better, although nobody can'figure out why. But are these the real reasons? Are the five course loaders (who are mostly SUNY people) really concerned with the quality of the courses at this school? And on the other hand are the four course loaders (who include large numbers of students) really trying to achieve academic utopia, through non-academic programs? I sincerely doubt it. If there is a single student who seriously believes deep down in his heart that the four course load can significantly improve the educational opportunities at this school, I’d like him to explain how. Face it, there is only one reason why the four course load is so popular, and we all know what it is. To put it mathematically, if x is the number of hours required for one course, then 4x is the number of hours of work required for a typical semester at It-T <0«7C. could be so near and dear to his heart. No, educational quality is of little concern to SUNY Central, but saving money is. In fact, the folks at Albany hate spending money as much as students hate cramming for finals. That’s why they are so concerned with Buffalo (and SUNY Binghamton which also has its four course load system under attack. Buffalo and Binghamton are the only SUNY branches with a four course system). You see, SUNY schools receive money based, in part, on the number of credits they hand out. If this school only has to hire four professors to teach 16 credits worth of classes to get the same amount of money as a five course load school hiring five professors to teach five courses, something isn’t fair. So, after years of polite prodding, Albany is pow attempting to lay down the five course law to Buffalo so they can cutback on the credit-dollars they are currently paying out. That would be fine in times of fiscal prosperity, but with times being what they are, the last thing this school needs is more cutbacks coupled with increased course enrollment of 25 percent. In spite of the nearsightedness being displayed by SUNY Central on this issue, the five course load will become reality soon anyhow because Albany is flexing its'muscles rather successfully these days. But the one thing I’d like to see is a real honest meeting between administrators and students where instead of talking about course quality and educational freedom, they argue over the merits of less schoolwork and less spending. lo«ch s mw Me of 61 Res. mic miups hz of sirfs Krehbiel’s FBI file To the Editor.

On night, • Buffalo - Monday that worked, as scored eight straight points, and continued building their margin until halftime. i had no trouble Buffalo remaining on top throughout most of the second half. Sam Robinson hit a few key jumpshots from the left baseline and Pellom added some key blocked shots. With six minutes left, the Bulls led 77-65, and then they fell apart. Apparently Sports Editor Fairleigh Dickinson (FDU) beat the Bulls 81-73. The team’s record now stands at 1-2. Buffalo began the FDU game extremely well and shooting opened a 35-20 lead with six minutes left in the first half. Then, Bulls coach Leo kichardson inserted a new front line (Mike Jones, 'Vernell Washington and Larry Jones for Eric Spence, Sam Pellom and Sam Robinson) to give the starters a rest. That move backfired and the Knights came roaring back. Jay Jorgensen hit three consecutive jumpers for FDD, and then Richardson returned the starters to the lineup, but it was too late. FDU had momentum and a hot shooting hand on their side, and they narrowed Buffalo’s lead to one point at halftime. Comeback “Up until the last six minutes all right,” Richardson said “But we were lucky to get out of here with a win.” Kim Malcolm, the Blackbirds’ quick little guard, penetrated, drawing foulk. He we did connected on a bunch ot freethrows down the stretch and Jeff Wilson .scored some key baskets. The Bulls, obviously feeling the effects of foul trouble and playing their third game in four nights, did not score a basket in the last four minutes of the game. As the game went under the one-minute mark, Buffalo had a slim 82-81 and it seemed like they could not hold on to the ball. The Blackbirds’ Jerry Hughes stole tKe ball from Cooper, but seconds later Johnson stole the ball back for Buffalo. He was foaled, and missed the free throw. “1 just rushed the first shot,” Johnson admitted. Malcolm then threw a full-court pass, that went out of bounds, returning the ball to Buffalo. But Johnson immediately committed the same mistake. Robinson stole the inbounds pass for Buffalo, and Johnson was fouled with 26 seconds left. This time he didn’t rush his shots, and lead, After a traveling violation by LIU’s Billy Rose, Johnson hit two more freethrows to lock up the win. Malcolm also added two freethrows to finish the scoring. Robinson was high scorer for Buffalo with 17 points, while Cooper, Johnson and Spence each had fourteen for the Bulls. Mike Hay had 22 for the losers, while teammate Greg Winston scored 19. “We thought we had capable people,” Richardson said. “We made some substitutions and we didn’t get any help from them.” Richardson stuck with his starters in the second half, until they got into foul trouble. However, Buffalo’s starters could not return to their fine form of the first half. The first six times Buffalo got the ball in the second half, they committed a turnover. “We had a lot of poise when we built a fifteen point lead,” Richardson explained. “We played good defense, we ran the offense well, but we just couldn’t page 5— , economic terms of plunking down an average of $2740 for a public college education of $4568 for the private school version.

William Gibson, director of the FTC’s Boston office, says the probe, the nation’s first into the growing, multi-million dollar a year business, will focus on the' advertising claims made by the companies. The FTC hopes to determine if the testing companies can back up their claims with evidence that students actually do better after taking their courses. Some firms say they can boost a student’s score by up to 100‘points upon completion of their course. Gibson says the inquiry was spurred by a growing number of gripes from students as well as the general feeling among college officials that the crash courses don't really affect a student’s score. In fact, spokesmen for the Educational Testing Service and the American College Testing Program, the two organizations who actually design and administer the tests, say their test booklets warn students that crash courses and drilling will not help them. Harvard University admissions director William Fitzimmons agrees. “Our research shows that the crash courses don’t accomplish a thing. The test scores reflect the quality of education the students have received over the years, cram courses won’t change that,” he says. Last year, 300,000 students took the Graduate Records Exam (GRE), 55,000 sweated through the day-long Medical School Admissions Test (MCAT), and 133,000 wrote the Law School Admission Test, according to the testing services. The stakes are certainly high; admissions directors place heavy emphasis on test results and this year alone in the medical field, nearly three students will take the MCAT for every available position in the nation’s med schools. Fees for the crash courses range from $25 to $550; the courses may last from a few hours to a full year. The FTC has not said which firms are under investigation. Indeed, a spokesman in the Boston office said the commission isn’t even sure how many test-help companies acfually exist. Stanley H. Kaplan, founder of the nation’s oldest, biggest and probably best-known crash course firm. The Stanley H. Kaplan Educational Center, says he isn’t scared of the FTC’s probe. “It’s aimed at those companies that make outrageous claims in advertising,” Kaplan says. “I have full confidence in what I do we never make claims.” Kaplan says 5,000 students signed up for his service last year at his firm’s offices in 30 cities? His company didn’t even advertise until 1970 and then only started when the growing competition did. Until then students heard about his service by word of mouth. “I’m. in my second — generation,” Kaplan says proudly, “parents took my course are sending their who children.” Kaplan refused to say what his company’s earnings were last year but he admitted business is “good.” Students who have had bad experiences with crash course firms may contact the FTC at 150 Causeway St., Boston, Ma. 02114.

Senate Chairman Faculty Binghamton committed would enroll in “People courses because they are attracted to them and this would have a beneficial effect,” he said at the Jonathan Reichert cited the various options open to the University. “It is possible to meet the SUNY Central mandate and still retain the four-course load,” he said. This could be time. The Faculty Senate Committee would, in proposal effect, eliminate the four-course load for most students by tailoring credit to the Carnegie unit, officially adopted by SUNY Central. The Carnegie unit awards one credit per fifty minutes of class time. Presently, all SUNY schools use the Carnegie unit except the SUNY centers at Buffalo and The Binghamton.

Speaking forcefully, and often with anger, the four African spokespersons in the Third wrold Week’s Southern Africa panel Thursday displayed confidence and assertiveness while representing the liberation movements now fighting in their respective white-ruled countries — Rffodesia, Namibia, and South African National Union (ZANU). Alfred Baazhi Makobo officially represents, ZANU in the United States, and was one of the panel guests. Though seemingly the least 1890s, was that the black struggle for freedom is nothing new, and in fact dates to the first arrival of the white man. SWAPO is the response to that polished oppression, Gurirab said, which despite terrific South African of the speakers, he nevertheless appeared the most dedicated and personally involved in the “struggle” he described. Primary among his thoughts was ZANU’s complete repudiation of the recent Kissinger accord “agreed” to by the African heads of state neighboring Zimbabwe. Those leaders denounced both the agreement and Kissinger when the document was made public, citing “distortions” and lies. Even the most moderate of the black nationalists declared it ‘‘unsatisfactory and ' unacceptable.” Makobo explained that ZANU has'since 1966 asserted that it would negotiate with the Ian Smith government only on the mechanics of the immediate power. over of handing white Negotiations on an participation interim in government, or any other issue including the minority “rights” of whites, would not be considered. This included compensation for white property. “We have been exploited for a hundred years, and nobody has compensated us. But those who have exploited us for so long, they are to receive a bonus.” (Two billion dollars in almost compensation is to be alloted to expropriated Rhodesians.) "We are not interested in conditions favorable to minority groups . . , Before we raise the question of minority rights, we must deal with the majority rights that still have not been granted. "We ary liberating Zimbabwe; not asking for it, we are going to take it.” Africa. ZANU ‘struggle’ The panelists each spoke of the in situation their countries, clarifying misconceptions, relating the specific political outlook of their liberation groups, and often turning to their international in specifically perspectives, relation to their fellow southern African resistence organizations. Rhodesia is now involved in an escalating liberation war. By far the most significant organization behind this is the Zimbabwe Fighters executed The SWAPO (liberation group in Namibia) representative. Theo Ben Gurirab, spoke of the execution of more than 100,000 by Namibians the German colonialists around the turn of the said century. Gurirab the slaughtered Namibians were casualties of the need to “feed the imperalist stomachs outside Africa.” His point, as with Makobo, who declared that native resistence was strong as soon as Cecil Rhodes has arrived in the pressures has remained unified and consistent in its opposition to imperialism and apartheid. “Black majority leading rule the to creation of a democratic socialist state is our aim.” Speaking of South African efforts to destroy SWAPO (South Africa has occupied Namibia since 1918, illegally since 1966), the Namibian said, “They have sent out bandits, masking as SWAPO, to terrorize the people and discredit us.” And the South Africans have tried to foment “.internal [inside the country] and external [exiled] wings of our group that would be at odds.” Concluding his talk, C.urirab addressed what has become a particularly thorny issue among leftists in this country. During the recent civil war in Angola, U S. left groups were divided as to which Angolan support, factions to not a completely clear question once the Portuguese had left the country and the former liberation groups fell into conflict.

The tour, which begins on May 23, can earn students college credit. Details will be available at a free evening program of motion picutres and slides, entitled “Israel-ltaly Tour Night,” to be presented in the Student Center Fireside Lounge at CanisiuS College tomorrow at 8 p.m. Committee failures hit GSEU text on contact credit hours meeting Editor’s note: Following is the text of the statement read by Graduate Student Employees Union Secretary Stratton Rawson at last Tuesday’s meeting of the Faculty Senate, in response to the report of the Faculty Senate Committee on Contact/Credit Hours. Le me begin with what may seem a small complaint. The committee willfully omitted from its meeting the undergraduate who was appointed to it And, as far as I can determine, it did not think a graduate student even necessary to its task. But, as any priest can tell you, such minor sins of omission are signs of greater sins. Why were the LaLonde, S.A. Director of Academic Affairs, students omitted? makes the answer obvious. Because students would haye insisted upon an evaluation of the four course load before dumping it. One doesn’t have to examine the signatures to divine that students didn’t participate in writing the report or its recommendations. The report accepts without murmur the administrative position. It only talks of the transition from the present system to one it claims is mandated by administrative fiat. Unlike the faculty caught in a similar situation in Binghamton, the committee failed to address the merits of the four course lead; it failed to defend or investigate established educational practice at U.B. This committee saw its job as simply carrying out the financially troubled will of the SUNY administration both here and in Albany. What keeps his guard up, but tells all comers that the Russians want peaceful Surely it is the educational well-being of the students at this University. Yet today the Senate is considering adopting a report which talks of education only in terms of facilities planning, of Schedules, and of “cross campus comparability.” If the committee wanted to ignore any evaluation of the four course load, so be it; but the Senate must not. The memorandum from SUNY which created this furor specifically allows exceptions to the Carnegie unit, as long as such exceptions are justified. The Senate has not yet mandated an evaluation in order to determine if the four course load is educationally justified. It ought to. The questions this report begs about the quality of undergraduate education are very serious ones. But not only are work load and class size issues important to undergraduates, graduate students might also suffer from the proposed changes. The implications of this report are clear to graduate employees. Since this report and the memorandum attached to it carry no new budgetary allocations, we can only conclude that the transition to the five course load in Social Sciences and the Humanities will mean both that class enrollments will be increased and that more courses will have to be taught. Despite the lure of larger enrollments, an inflated class size benefits no one educationally: not faculty, not students, not TAs. The G.S.E.U. is especially concerned with what happens when the number of classes taught must be increased. Who will teach those classes; who but those who are presently unprotected and without a contract. That is one of the reasons why graduate students on this campus are actively unionizing. We can no longer be subject to administrative actions which are calculated to further exploit our labor. The faculty has a union contract which it must defend and, the faculty has another duty: they must defend the educational integrity of U.B. It is not enough that you reject the committee report and proposal; a meaningful evaluation of the four course load must be initiated, so that a justifiabled exception might be made for this University’s four course load. We can resist, and that resistance can be started here. We can resist the attempts of the SUNY administration to remold the University into a fortress against legislative attacks manned by experts on budget defense. That defense is costing us the very character of our University. It is time we, faculty, graduates and undergraduates, rather than acting rashly on foolish memoranda, deliberately and thoughtfully assess what we need educationally and act upon what is common to us all, our University, in which we teach and are taught. Page two . The Spectrum , Wednesday, 1 December 1976 Carter’s promise Amnesty is still in question (CPS) Now that the presidential elections are over, it is only a matter of time until President-elect Carter makes good on his campaign promises of unconditional pardons to draft evaders. The National Democratic Party platform called for a “full and complete pardon for those who were in legal or financial jeopardy because of their peaceful opposition to the Vietnam War, with deserters to be considered on a case-to-case basis.” However, Carter said in September that he would not be bound to the party platform and would refuse to give pardons to draft non-registrants or to upgrade less than honorable discharges. Earlier in his campaign, Carter stated that what you did was right. “amnesty means Pardon means what you did, whether it is right or wrong, you’re forgiven for it. And I do advocate a pardon for draft evaders.” Stuart Eizenstat, Carter’s Director of Policy and Issues, claimed that the new administration’s policy is “not one of unconditional pardon for deserters” but would instead depend on several criteria, one of which is whether or not the man was deserting because of opposition to the war or opposition to the Army itself. Such a condition would be determined by a hearing officer, Eizenstat said, and offering a hypothetical case he added that if the man had deserted from the middle of a key battle and had led to the death of twenty people, he probably ought not be pardoned. — that. .. July amnesty conference attracted only 40 workers. In September, 60 people attended a conference in Des Moines, Iowa where the speaker was a minister from the University of Iowa. President Ford’s amnesty program does not meet with approval by NCUUA which has called the program a demonstration of the power of the President to upgrade the military discharges as well as the futility of issuing amnesty or pardon given has discharges.” Arizona legislature participants in this program an especially difficult time by passing a bill which prohibits clemency discharge holders from getting publicly funded jobs. And in Madison, Wisconsin state law requires county veterans affairs officers to have honorable discharges. Those who will be paying particular attention to Carter’s treatment of the amnesty issue will include a reported 8,700 convicted draft violators who have served sentences, paid fines or gotten suspended sentences. Ford’s program excluded these men and it is not clear whether or not Carter will pay closer attention. The largest group of draft violators are non-registrants who face up $10,000 or five years in jail. Neither Ford’s nor Carter’s program include them. And then there ate the '792,000 veterans who hold less than honorable discharges. These men include the non-deserters who refused orders to Vietnam, who talked questioningly about the war or who even organized radical newspapers. The fate of these men is as unclear as President Carter’s focus on Futility the issue that simply will not go away. Said Carter in Yet, the National Council for Universal and August, “Where I come from, most of the men who Unconditional Amnesty (NCUUA) is questioning went off to fight in Vietnam were poor. They didn’t such a condition and according to a report by the have the money to hide from the draft in college Department of Defense, only one percent of the the Vietnam veterans are our nation’s unsung heroes, AWOL’s that participated in President Ford’s I do not favor a blanket amnesty, but for those who clemency program deserted from combat situations. violated Selective Service laws, I intend to urge a For deserters, each case should Efforts to keep the amnesty issue alive on blanket pardon attended. on an individual basis in accordance with poorly be handled In campus have been weak and Madison, Wisconsin, at the University of Wisconsin, a our nation’s system of military justice.” . . . .

Jeff Dumo Baqwa of the South Students’ Movement African reiterated much of what hd been said, but added-details as to the specific South African outlook. In an interview later, he also told much abouth the alleged divisions among South African blacks, so widely reported in the Western press. The reports were spurred last Zulu when some summer students tribesmen attacked against the demonstrating apartheid regime. The incident began after demonstrators attacked and burned a hostelry that housed Zulu blacks, most of whom had only recently come from the country to work in Johannesburg. cited Baqwa inexperience of student responsible destruction the political the youthful demonstrators as unwise for the of a symbol of apartheid the tightly controlled, segregated and poorly maintained - hostels which nevertheless were the only homes for these Zulu — workers.» Told in advance by the South African police of the burning, the Zulus returned from work in the city with police-provided arms (in a country where no blacks may possess a weapon for any reason). then attacked the They demonstrating crowd and were supervised by the South African to many student leader police, according eyewitness accounts. The guest repeatedly that the occurrance did not reflect any real divisions in black opposition to apartheid. In the wave of strikes the demonstrations following Baqwa pointed out, there was great, and increasing migrant worker support. These newly familyless persons, arrived, unaccustomed to city life, were with a little time able to understand the nature of the uprising, and see the need for militant solidarity. The age-old stressed South African tactic of divide and was decisively defeated, Baqwa asserted. That the rebellion has spread successfully to the black working class is in' fact the rule important most development in South recent Theo Bidi from PAC made clear that “the primary struggle in our country is not against (against] but apartheid, imperialism, brought to Azania [South Africa) in 1652, which created the apartheid regimes.” He emphasized repeatedly that apartheid was the systematic — economic exploitation of the black people by South African capitalists and the “imperialists that support them,” and not merely an example of “man’s inhumanity to man.” From an undertanding of this point, he concluded, blacks in southern Africa could see that whites per se were not the enemy. Rather, it is primarily the imperialism and British American transnational companies and their governments that nourishes the settler regime and its racist institutions. It must be eliminated without comprise, he felt. With his broad but well thought out generalizations and expansive, at ease manner, Bidi was perhaps the most articulate and appreciated — — speaker. In an interview later in the day, the panelists discussed why the moderate black leader Joshua Nkomo had agreed to unite with the militant ZANU, and go to the Geneva conference on the Kissinger accord. There they denounced the agreement and demanded immediate black rule, proposed rather than the white-dominated “interim” government that would set all the ground rules and write the constitution ■ for the eventual black government to take power in two years. ZANU’s Makobo explained that Nkomo has essentially collaborated with the apartheid for years, and has regime therefore been almost completely discredited among the populace.

Colleges try to stop VA from collecting by Carol O’Connor Special to The Spectrum A landmark suit seeking to prevent the Veterans Administration (VA) from collecting more than $1.4 million in overpayments to veterans in Colorado colleges and universities has been filed by the Colorado attorney general's office. The court challenge, destined to have national impact, charges that state colleges and universities have been subjected to a “reprehensible kangaroo process,” and is coupled with a motion for a temporary restraining order to prevent the feds from trying to collect any money until the matter is settled in court. The suit filed in Denver„U.S. District Court basically “questions the federal governments’ authority to make the states pay for mistakes the VA made,” explained Colorado Assistant Atty. General Dave (CPS) — Engdahl. While Colorado risks losing S1.4 million to the feds, Engdahl noted, the situation is worse in other states. “One college in Boston, Mass., stands to lose more than S1.6 million alone,” he said. The Colorado' AG’s office has had inquiries from other states facing the same problem Engdahl said, adding that he has received calls frbm attorney generals’ offices in Washington, California, Arizona, Michigan, New Hampshire. Maryland and Pennsylvania. Interference The overpayments S1.4 million in Colorado for the last six months alone t- resulted from students failing to attend class, dropping out after the semester had begun or decreasing their course loads, Engdahl explained. “The states can’t be expected to monitor the vets for the VA,” he added. The feds, however, are relying on a federal statute that says the schools must pick up the tab if the schools fail to inform the federal government within 30 days about students who aren’t fulfilling their Engdahl explained that such a requirement is educational programs. impossible to. satisfy since it requires such procedures as professors keeping daily-attendance records of the veterans in their classes. Taking daily attendance “would interfere with the normal administration of the schools,” he added. is Colorado is arguing that the 30-day requirement unconstitutional since the federal government doesn’t have the authority to require the states to provide such information, or to single out a group the vets and subject them to constraints not placed on other students. Besides. Engdahl added, most colleges are lucky to get their students enrolled and billed let alone monitoring one special group of students. — Uncertain economy blamed Graduate applications down Mothers dreams are being shattered more often these days because their sons are less likely to be applying to medical, dental and law schools, according fo a recent poll. The poll shows that admission applications for these graduate programs are ebbing from their peak levels of the early seventies. Fierce competition for places in these programs has been cited as a possible reason for th£ dropoff in applications. Students with weaker records are considering more carefully their chances and in many cases are not Grad school atrophy There is also a feeling among many students that the time and money spent on a graduate education is becoming a poorer investment in light of mounting tuition and uncertain employment conditions faced by today’s professional students. Professional education particularly in the areas of law. medicine, and dentistry, heightened in popularity in the 1970’s as many top undergraduate students geared their undergraduate studies in preparation for professional study. The proportion of students applying for admission to professional schools increased at a rate far in excess of overall undergraduate enrollment gains.

Theodore Drieser wrote a one-act play about it; just one wiff gave “more unmingled pleasure than 1 had ever before experienced,” gushed poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge. Similarly, poet Robert Southey was equally impressed; “The atmosphere of all the possible heavens must be compressed in this gas,” he wrote, speaking of the same substance other writers have dubbed “the air of paradise.” What’s the compound all these people consider such a gas? It’s nitrous oxide N20 aka “laughing gas,” the same weird stuff the dentist makes you suck in so he can fool around in your mouth and you won’t feel any pain. Today, it’s,the most commonly used anesthetic in surgery, according to a book that tells all about nitrous oxide. Laughing Gas (Shedlin, Wallechinsky eds., And/Or Press, Berkeley, - — Calif.). Of course, laughing gas has other uses besides its medicinal ones'. For 20 decades people have been allowing the harmless and abundant substance to . seep up through their nasal passages to tweak their brains and provoke some of the spiffiest surrealistic dreams ever conjured up by otherwise normal minds of the human persuasion. Back in style Laughing gas is back in vogue today. Actually, it’s never been out of vogue since famous inventor Joseph Priestly discovered the simple compound in 1772. Its use has ebbed and flowed over the centuries, but people never really stopped using it as long as there were labs around to churn it out. Laughing gas enjoyed a renaissance during the pyschedelic sixties which experts feel has probably tapered off, but many young people in every section of the IMPORTANT RUSSIAN 1 In The Spectrum Russian of Nov. satisfies the 123 nation are snorting gas today. “Yes. it’s definitely being done all over the country today,” says a drug researcher at a federal agency in Washington. “It’s fairly easily available all over,” echoes Vic Pawluk of the Do It Now Foundation, a drug research center in Phoenix. “It seems to come and go in communities on a fad basis. A lot of people in Ohio are doing it lately,” Pawluk adjls. Perhaps the nation’s leading group of laughing gas afficionados is the Fast Bay Chemical Philosophy Symposium (EBCPS), a self-described anarchistic cabal from the San Francisco area who reckon they’ve sniffed over 500,000 quarts of the stuff. It was members of FBSPS who collaborated on Laughing Gas as well as on a movie entitled Gas which they say can only be appreciated by an audience that is breathing laughing gas at the same time as the people in the film. Strange and marvelous! In writing Gas the authors interviewed chief anesthesiologists at several large California hospitals, sifted through mounds of research and checked out the entire 200 year medical history of the gas. They also inhaled massive doses of the gas itself. message The author’s main is unmistakably: “Do It,” to give laughing gas a whirl since it’s a safe and, as they put it, “ineffable, irrational, too strange and marvelous to be comprehended or remembered.” The book, which is chocked full of hilarious illustrations, details the colorful history of gas, how its use spread across the sea from England’s Pneumatic Institute (where scientists studied & 23 Letters armed with both.

Users also readily admit that they encounter a bum trip from, time to time in the course of an evening’s sniffing, but a$ long as one makes sure the oxygen level stays normal, the grim reaper won’t be one of the sniffer’s visions, experts agree. “There’s really not a whole lot of abuse Do the It Now potential,” says Foundation’s Pawluk.

In addition to its widespread medical uses, the gas has many industrial applications such as food refrigeration processing. One of the best methods of snorting gas is to buy a four-foot cylinder containing 2,500 air gallons and using it to pump up balloons. That way. people at a party can fake long individual tokes as the balloon is passed around the room like a joint. A laughing gas buzz lasts two or three intense moments.

As adolescence strikes, dirty words as are accompanied by pubescent maturity, that noble age when thought stretch beyond the self to include the world, is reached, the walls become a melting pot of scrawled expression, encompassing all aspects of life. The classical answer given for climbing Mt. Everest is, “because it is there.” Much graffiti is the result of the same kind of reasoning. As one college student said with a shrug of his shoulders, “Have pen, will write.” • Fiendish delight O Psychologists and sociologists view graffiti from a more complex standpoint. “Graftiti is the voice of the people,” states George Jay Rosenberger 111, a ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• leading authority on graffiti. “It is ah extension of the self in a world that is becoming computerized, technologized and vastly overcrowded. I write, therefore, I exist.” A toilet stall functions not only as an outlet for waste materials but for frustrations and repressed feelings as well. We are given a 4’x2’ cubicle to remain alone, unobserved and at peace. Perhaps it is this feeling of supremacy which inspires the Walter Mitty in us all. Great things happen in small spaces.

Many people find the defacement of public property disturbing. One young man said, “I write on my walls at home 'but I wouldn t op anyone else’s.” Graffiti might prove offensive because it is unsolicited, the free expression of an individual unedited, unexpurgated and uncensored. Some people’s choice of a bathroom stall is contingent on the very presence of entertaining graffiti. One student stopped scribbling long enough to boast, “Graffiti is the spice of defecation!” The favorite graffiti is of a sexual nature and includes fantasies, soliciting of partners, venting ot crowning the candidate frustrations, and contests who has conquered the biggest, the bestest amj the mostest King (Queen) of Sexual Prowess. Typical put-downs seen above the urinals include, “Don’t look up here for the joke, it’s in — - - Provocative Advertisements can be provocative. “Call Mary at 5682 for a good time” is a common form. We must decide if Mary is really a friendly, fun-loving person or if someone is just busting her balls. Likewise, “I am looking for a wrestling partner for Leave name and number” may be a nude matches hoax. The liberation of homosexuality has brought with it scrawled statements such as “Lesbians Unite Let a woman be your lover” and the more flippant “Lay A Gay Today.” “One of my fantasies is to read the graffiti in the women’s room,” revealed an unassuming male. Were he to examine the first floor lavatory in Norton Union, however, he would be severely disappointed. The main “jane” in the hub of student activity is totally devoid of any significant graffiti. “I’m getting sick of this Ozzie loves Harriet stuff,” voiced an attendant in a white uniform. “Why don’t these girls get on the ball and write something juicy?” - - Exploitative feelings Unlike many countries, public toilets in the United States are segregated by sex. This fact contributes to the frequently obscene nature of toilet graffiti. Vulgar remarks are found in both “gentlemen” and “ladies” rooms and typify the exploitative feelings operant in the war between the sexes: “A woman is nothing more than a piece of ass,” or “Harry can’t get it up unless his dog is there too!” Extremely crude graffiti is found in the toilets. Apparently alcohol loosens the hand as well as the tongue. Tom Bannigan. a graduate student at this University and manager of The Wurst Place, said that it is necessary to repaint the bathroom walls several times a year. “A bar can be dosed by The Department of Health for graffiti on the walls, especially the vulgar stuff,” he said. “An inspector comes in every six months and says, “paint it!” Next in popularity, after sexual commentary, is racist, and sexist propaganda, followed by advice columns, graffiti’s alternative to Ann Landers. Romance finds its way to the bathroom walls as do academic, sportive and religious meanderings plus various oddities. “Jesus Saves,” someone writes. “And Perrault scores on the rebound.” adds someone else.

In a long-feared explosion of bfack rebellion against economic exploitation and political nonexistence, black people in the whole of southern Africa are moving with dizzying speed to overthrow the racist regimes that have oppressed them for so long. Rhodesia, it seems, will be the first to fall. We fully support the freedom fighters in Namibia, Rhodesia, and South Africa, as well as the newly-established socialist governments in Angola and Mozambique, who recently won their independance from Portuguese colonial ‘ rule. But a point more relevant here at the University must be made: the possibility of serious U.S. involvement in southern Africa. U.S. government and leading business intentions are clear. President Ford gave strong support to pro-Western elements duriVig the Angolan civil war last year, but was opposed by Congress. Except for method and style, the President-elect, Jimmy Carter, revealed no significant foreign policy differences in his recent debates with the President. An overwhelmingly Democractic, and by many accounts more conservative, 95th Congress could very well support the new President, should he decide to intervene. Atlantic and Indian Ocean offense/defense. It is the American citizenry that will bear the full cost of U.S. intervention Africa. While in southern military-industrial concerns make huge profits, we will pay for the bullets, bombs, guns, and planes used to safeguard U.S. interests. It is American youth who will be wounded, maimed, and killed, should American troops be landed in the region. And it is also a certainty that social goals will be all but forgotten once a war has begun Thus it is in our direct interest to strongly and actively oppose actions that would lead to U.S. involvement, and to do it now, when that opposition could cut off another tragedy before it begins.

Many of them would be happy to see James Schlesinger named Secretary of State or Secretary of Defense, tq> see Carter go ahead with the B-l bomber and to see the SALT talks delayed indefinitely. Sixteen years ago, a similar set of Paul Reveres brought similar pressures on John F. Kennedy. The pressures in those days took the form of generals and admirals addressing “national security forums” and “cold war alerts” and saying things like, “Victory on each of the battlefields of the Cold War is essential the survival of freedom.” Kennedy, seeking to make his way through the shoals of foreign policy, ordered the military men to cool it. In one case, a Pentagon censor made a general delete the phrase “cold war” and substitute “international tension caused by the Sino-Soviet aggression or threat of aggression.” There was an uproar in which conservatives charged that Kennedy was “muzzling” the military. But he finally won out. Behind that campaign of saber rattling was a metwork of right-wing organizations ranging from doctrinaire anti-Communists to weapons manufacturers who stood to gain from stepped-up to military spending. The current pressure campaign is much smoother and more sophisticated. At its initial press conference, Co-Chairman David Packard, former of defense, now deputy secretary back at Hewlett-Packard, Inc., minimized his company’s defense work, saying it came to only 15 percent of the total and consisted of electronic software. Packard and the other co-chairman, Lane Kirkland, number two to George Meany as secretary-treasurer of the AFL-CIO, took turns a policy statement warning against “the drive for dominance based upon an unparalleled military buildup.” It called for more military stronger spending, alliances and a “coherent” foreign policy as a “sound basis to seek reliable conditions of peace with the Soviet Union, rather than an illusory detente.” Behind that campaign of saber rattling was a network of right-wing The group had had fair success in attracting big names, although at least one person it approached, an eminent historian, declined on the ground that its program was centered too much on a big military Soviet - Arts reminder of the last time President took over from a Republican, The occasion was the unveiling reading Rich Korman Managing Editor — Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt Backpage There was something nostalgic about the scene Press Club the other day.

But the core was a group of hard-line anti-Corhmunists, including Jay lovestone, a former Communist who was director of the AFL-CIO’s International Department fro many years and remains a consultant to Meany; W. Glenn Campbell, director of the Hoover Institution for War, Revolution and Peace, and Richard V. Allen, a senior staff member at the Hoover Institution before he became an early foreign affairs adviser to Richard Nixon. One name missing from the roster was that of James Schlesinger, former Secretary of Defense who broke with President ■ Gerald R. Ford over Schlesinger’s objection to military budget cuts. But Schlesinger’s connection with the new group had leaked out through the efforts of an organization that calls itself the U.S. Labor party, which has a paranoid preoccupation with the supposed plot by Vice President Nelson A. Rockefeller to seize control of the country. But occasionally it produces interesting confidential documents. In this case, the U.S. Labor party publisher private correspondence out of the files of Eugene V. Rostow, chairman of the executive committee of the new committee, suggesting that Schlesinger was the moving spirit behind it. When Rostow was asked about this, he acknowledged that the creation of the committee grew out of conversations with Schlesinger dating back to the'spring of 1975, more than six months before Ford fired the Defense Secretary. Schlesinger may have kept his name off the list of officers and members for fear it might harm his chances of being named to a place in the Carter administration. Another letter tied Rostow to Frank R. Barnett, who had organized some of those cold war alerts 16 years ago and who now operates the National Strategy Information Center, Iric., in New York. He asked Rostow to join his board, observing that “the United States today is about where Britain was in 1938, with the shadow of Hitler’s Germany darkening all of Europe.” Barnett said his new Washington office would “interact with policy echelons in the White House and Pentagon (where we still have many friends).”’He added that ht also had friends in the Washington press corps. Rostow accepted warmly, observing that “it should be no problem to coordinate our activities, and indeed to act jointly on many issues.” Barnett has been active as a professional anti-Communist for at least 25 years. In 1951, he proposed the creation of an American-sponsored foreign legion recruited from East European refugees. He urged the Jay Lovestone, a former Communist who was director of the AFL-ClO’s International Department for many years and remains a consultant to of political warfare.” The Committee on the Present Danger has at least two ins with the Carter administration Schlesinger and Paul Nitze, former Secretary of the Navy, who is chairman of policy studies of the new committee. Both were among Carter’s foreign affairs advisers during the campaign. But there are other Carter advisers who see today’s world in different terms, who see the possibility of U.S.-Soviet cooperation and a reduction in the military budget. A new group called the American Committee of U.S.-Soviet Relations, which includes another long roster of prominent Americans, is pressing for new efforts to promote detente, including consideration of a move to repeal the Jackson-Vanik amendments and revive the blocked U.S.-Soviet trade agreement. Its members include George Kennan, former ambassador to Moscow, and Leonard Woodcock, President of the United Automobile Workers, whose timely endorsement of Carter helped him get the — nomination. Perhaps most significant of all as an influence on Carter is the towering figure of Averell Harriman, who knows the Russians well, always his guard up, but tells all comers that the Russians want peaceful competition not war and will be receptive to new moves to develop trade, control the spread of nuclear weapons and reduce arms budgets. — — �Schools and book bans Outrageous broadsides To the Editor. To the Editor. Libby Post’s commentary on the removal of books from public school shelves in New York State by school boards was timely and factual. However, there was an element missing which 1 sincerely feel should be added and that is the school library media specialists who stand in the middle between the student need and the school board. Among the cases covered by Ms. Post, the Island Trees School District case received the most attention. In that case, Mrs. Irene Turin, the district supervisor for the school libraries, is the one that “blew the whistle” on the I have never been an advocate for the quality and professionalism of The Spectrum but never have I seen so many outrageou? broadsides levelled at the paper as there have been this year. It appears that there is a small group of people who are determined to use the paper as their own personal crying towel and at the same time blame The Spectrum's editors and staff for not having the decency to agree with them. These attacks on the editors would not normally cause me to write; I should sit back and chuckle. However as of late, these authors have expanded their vision and havte grown so bold as to pretend to speak for a majority of the undergraduate study body. What 1 am referring to specifically is a letter in The Spectrum of November 19 entitled (sic) “Ridiculous editorial.” The author begins with the customary tirade condemning The Spectrum and then leads into the tears. What ticks me off is that this person has the gall to include me in his trite little rhetoric. “God knows,” he states, “we commuters would consider doing it (controlling UUAB committees) except UUAB has improved greatly in its film choices and also we don’t have the time.” Beyond that he alleges, “the commuters are one of, if not the most, oppressed groups on this campus. They rarely get their money’s worth of their $67 a!nd they have little representation in SA despite the Gomrauter Party victories in September’s Gerald R. Shields. Assistant Dean Chairperson of the New York Library Association Committee on Intellectual Freedom and Due Process , . board’s removal tactics and prompted Superintendent of Schools Richard Morrow to make his statement on the wrongness of the Board’s removal of books without any review process. Mrs. Turin bought paperback copies of the books being banned so that parent’s could read more than the excerpts offered by the Board. Superintendent Morrow is no longer in that position and a disciple of the famed conservative, one-time California education chief Max Rafferty has moved into the spot. Mrs. Turin figures privately that it is only a matter of time until she is removed from her post. School and public libraries are victims of these kinds of pressures and. the librarieans that do the selection and placing of the books on the shelves must make a moral decision which in this day and age is tough. Either go along with censorship or fight it and lose your job. The New York Library Association Committee on Intellectual Freedom and Due Process has worked with librarians like Mrs. Turin and is currently helping to support a syit against the Island Trees School District Board by concerned parents in hopes of obtaining the kind of decision in New York that came out of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th District in Ohio as cited by Ms. Post. Anyone wishing to join in this effort may contact the Nassau chapter of American Civil Liberties Union. Clearly from the kinds of materials being removed by these “traditionalist” boards, it is obvious that they uphold the good old traditions of racism, sexism and ageism, “Traditional” values which have ho place in growing minds. Yorkers control everything,” “I don’t want to come election!:.” Directly to the point, commuters never have not at the present anywhere near being an “oppressed” group. That would imply that there exists some other body that is oppressing these students. As a commuter and as a former Student been and are Association Executive Committee member, the evidence, as 1 see it, clearly points to the fact that fhe only oppressors commuters have are the individual commuter students themselves. For years now I have heard the complaints of “those New of peace 9 To the Editor. In response to “Don’t support Military,” I was aggravated 'enough to voice my views on the subject. I am a Navy veteran with almost seven years of service. I was trained to promote health and well being, not to “kill people.” The Medical Corps comprises roughly 20% of all Navy held jobs. Mr. Mahoney takes offense to military advertisements because he feels they promote killing. What he fails to realize is that the advertisements also represent a much higher majority of careers that are not of a combat nature. Men and women train in nearly 100 different professions that are essential in operating the armed forces. These same people leave the service with the abilities and skills that allow them to become necessary and meaningful members of the job force in this country. Being a hospital corpsman, I do not condone aggression and killing. On the contrary, I condemn it. No one likes war. It is my belief that without the military, we would be faced with the catastrophic consequences of enemy aggression on our shores. This would result in the killings of many Americans. Maintaining the military is our greatest deterrent against foreign aggression. Maintaining the military, not just to fight, but to insure a readiness of operations in peacetime, is essential to a continuing peace. The armed forces, whether or not we chose to accept it, are our “guardians” of peace. 1 like the word security, as opposed to guardian. The military should be properly maintained and supported to safeguard our lives as Americans. Edward D. Blizard, Jr To the Editor. While reading the editorial in The Spectrum on 1/19/76, concerning Chemistry 101 at UB, 1 found it necessary to add my views about the course. To be more specific. I’d like to comment on the grading policy in the laboratory. On laboratory experiments No. 5 and No. 6, 1 received a 22/25 and a 24/25 respectively. The laboratory instructor asked the members of the class to resubmit experiments No. 5 and No. 6 so they could be regraded. Apparently the laboratory instructor incorrectly graded these two experiments. When the labs were handed back to the students for the second time, most of the students found large reductions in their grades. I believe it was unfair for the instructor to request that the students resubmit their labs. 1 haven’t yet had my two labs handed back to me but I fear that my grades will also be reduced. Another point I’d like to make’ is the second Chemistry 101 exam contained multiple choice questions concerning experiments No. 5 and No. 6. Apparently the students in my laboratory who interests To the Editor To the Editor We read, with interest, the letter entitled “Grading in Chemistry” in the November 19, 1976 issue of The Spectrum and wish to respond to some of the criticisms of Chemistry 101 contained therein. 1. It is our belief that the grading policy is essentially equivalent to that in comparable chemistry departments throughout the U.S.A. 2. One rather misunderstood item is our (perhaps rather unwise) habit of publicizing “guaranteed grades.” The correct interpretation of these data is that (for example) an overall score of 560 guarantees a grade of A, no matter how high the “curve" of scores for the course lies. When the course contains one (or difficult more) in the current case, the second examination(s) hour exam, (where the median was about 45, rather then clearly, the than the expected 65 or so) numerical “cut-offs” between grades will be lowered i.e., we realize that it is more correspondingly likely that student ability will remain constant from - — But of course! We should expect that the State University of New York Vice Chancellor for Academic Programs would announce that in the interest of accuracy the credit/contact hour system should be instituted. After all, we would see a cold day in hell before he would suggest something in the interests of the students. Dear Mr. Chancellor, please leave well enough alone. Bernard Broth man - How much is SCATE or the course description handbook worth? How about the four course load? Then again, maybe this is all for the benefit of those New Yorkers who 1 am supposed to be so paranoid about. I am sick and tired of hearing these dredges bitch about the lack of resources from their mandatory activity fees. What it all boils down to is this: commuters have to learn to stand on their own two feet. No one, whether they be from Queens or Syracuse or even Wappingers Falls can deny any commuter access to UB activities. As a group, we commuters should never be afraid to associate with the alledged “downstaters.” If, on this campus, we can’t get along, if we refuse to associate with one another, if we resort to defining class differences just because we reside in different sections of the state, how much hope can we have for our society when we’re in the “outside?” It is time for commuters to stop living on their self-pity and to open their eyes. Here’s your University, take advantage of it. David Shapiro studied these two experiments before the test were studying incorrect information because the labs were incorrectly graded the first time. It wasn’t until after the test that the labs were recollected. To sum up the' results, the students in my laboratory class suffered because they studied incorrect information for exam No. 2 and because their lab grades were lowered. If I had my choice I wouldn’t have resubmitted my labs because I was quite content with my grades. If I had told my instructor that 1 disposed of the labs after they were handed back the first time, what could he have done? I did not receive any information from the Chemistry Department stating that the students of Chemistry 101 were required to save their labs. With that last fact in mind, why should the students be obligated to resubmit their labs? In my opinion the Chemistry Department has gone a bit too far in trying to reduce the number of engineers and pre-meds. Thank you very much for listening to my concerns.

These are allowed for in the final grade determination by adjusting lab scores to allow for different medians from section to section. 4. In the specific experiment referred to by the “discontented student” (Expt. 10), approximately 40 ml of reagent is released from a burette. This quantity is measurable with a precision of +—0.1 ml (i.e., about 1 part in 400). A discrepancy of “4.93%,” involving an error of I part in 20, is clearly ■unacceptable. 5. It is, of course, not the goal of the chemistry department “to create a reduction in the numbers of pre-med and engineering students” as suggested by our observation is many students who drop the course would probably have a grade of “C.” • Finally, we realize that the course is demanding with seven contact hours per week in addition to the necessity for very considerable preparation. It is our hope that, when the much-vaunted “Carnegie-unif”’ for course credits is impleneted, the course will be associated with the 6.0 credits that it richly deserves. the discontented student.

The Spectrum . Page nine �For cooperative interaction The Marine ‘Hymn’ To the Editor. I’m no flower child; I agree with Perry Silver, a UB student and ex-Marine, that the world is uncivilized and that the use of force may sometimes be necessary to preserve freedom and justice. (The Spectrum, Nov. 19.) However, I vehemently disagree with Mr. Silver on the nature and the potential of the U.S. Marine Corps. Put bluntly, 1 do not think the Marine Crops promotes or can promote freedom and justice in the world. In addition, 1 must confess that I have serious doubts about all branches of the U.S. military. The Marines just seem to me to be the most brutal and likely to follow orders without questioning them. I recently saw “Hearts and Minds,” the academy award winning documentary on our involvement in the Vietnam war; consequently, the incredible amount of death and destruction that occurred in that war are on my mind. What did U.S. military actions in Vietnam have to do with promoting freedom and justice? Nothing. Despite the lies of one Washington administration after another, we now know that the American military was not really in Vietnam to fight the mythological Communist monolith. Its job was to counter the Vietnamese revolution and in> so doing perpetuate the morally indefensible colonial domination of Vietnam by Western powers. In theory, we are the good guys. Our country supposedly protects the “Free World" from tyranny. In practice, money and power is the name of our game and the so-called “Free World” is filled with dictatorships that are receiving U.S. support, including those in Chile, Brazil, South Africa, Iran, Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, and South Korea. Mr Silver may be a good person and have enjoyed his stay in the Marines, but this does not alter the nature of the organization or the unjust global status quo it exists in order to maintain. During “Third World Week,” Eqbal Ahmed of the Institute for Policy Studies noted that since World War II the United States government has intervened in the internal affairs of foreign countries on the average of once every 14 months. These interventions have not been moral or just. They have been part of an imperial policy that has gained for certain U.S. business markets and interests at the expense of countless people all around the world. It is in this context that we should understand the Marines and their “hymn” which begins, “From the halls of Montezuma to the shores of Tripoli ...” . , Walter Simpson Deciding for ourselves military, hut merely to demonstrate that two people To the h'ditor I Would like to reply to James Mahoney’s defense of The Spectrum's ban on military advertisements Mr. Mahoney states that his feelings about the military are a result of his personal experiences in the Air Force.

However. 1, too, have had some experience as a military officer and have come to a different conclusion about the goals and end results of officer training.

Paul N. Hi miner Vacation isolation To the Editor. The Thanksgiving Vacation which was a happy occasion for students who went home to celebrate it with their friends and families was a “trap” for those who remained in dorms because of termination of bus service. All resident students, except those who own cars, felt completely isolated from the rest of the world. I admit that running. buses in such a vacation according to normal schedule is too expensive and impracticable to carry on, but on the other hand, it is unreasonable to stop bus service completely, to say that many students were obliged to take cabs from the Main Campus to Ellicott Complex and everybody realizes how expensive this type of service However, in the vacations to come it is hoped that the bus service instead of being stopped completely -r be limited to few trips a day so that students get off the Amherst Campus. — Riatl Hussein Wpevcff of ojHiOi me (UT0 A A UX/tfV ATTAOS...

That’s what happened to the basketball Bulls on Saturday night at the Memorial Auditorium they lost their season opener to Niagara 88-85 in double overtime, after Buffalo had a four point lead with 42 seconds left in regulation — time. Buffalo coach Leo Richardson was disappointed with the loss, but was nevertheless proud of the way the Bulls played. “We were overly prepared,” Richardson said. “Our kids made some mistakes because they wanted to win so badly.” One of those mistakes was on defense. “I was overaggressive sometimes,” said junior Larry Jones. “I was really trying to play good defense.” As a result, Jones, along with teammates Eric Spence and Ed Johnson, fouled out, and Buffalo was whistled for eleven more fouls than Niagara was. In the decisive second overtime period, the Purple Eagles scored all eight of their points from the free throw line. Bulls fail to score Neither team was able to build more than a five point lead throughout the game. With about eight minutes remaining, the Bulls came down-court four consecutive times and were unable to get a shot off, while Niagara scored six straight points to take a 62-58 lead. Richardson called time-out and settled the team down. Slowly Buffalo came back, and when Spence tipped in an offensive rebound with 2:25 left, Buffalo found themselves back on top, 68-66. Sam Pellom and Spence each added one free-throw to Buffalo’s lead, and with 42 Niagara’s Phil seconds left, Scaffidi fouled Spence, seemingly locking up the win for Buffalo. Spence didn’t score however, and Niagara came back quickly. Skip McDaniel cut Buffalo’s lead to two with a fifteen foot jump George shot. Buffalo guard Cooper, who had an outstanding night, unfortunately made a bad pass, and the ball returned to Niagara. Hanley, Mike who finished with 26 points and a game-high of 18 rebounds, hit a short bucket with eleven seconds to go, sending the game into overtime. Niagara had a very similar chance to win the first overtime. The Purple Eagles led by four with 40 seconds left, when Vern MEDICAL CENTER outpatient abortion clinic offering services and counseling. an Allen came to the freethrow line for them. Allen missed, and the Bulls scored as Cooper drove down the lane, pump faked and then scored, with 23 seconds remaining. Then, Allen made the mistake of shooting for Niagara, since he had a near-layup. He missed, Buffalo rebounded and then Cooper was fouled with four seconds left. Cooper hit the first free throw, and then Niagara coach Dan Raskin called time-out. “We didn’t talk about free-throws,” said. “We just Richardson assumed George would make them.” Cooper swished his second free-throw to send the game into another extra period. Top scorers last overtime period The seemed anti-climatic. Hanley and Scaffidi each hit two free-throws before Buffalo could score, and Niagara never relinquished that lead. Cooper led the Bulls with 28 also picking up seven assists. Pellom had 19 points and ,17 rebounds. Sam Robinson was the only other Bull in double figures, with eleven points and a dozen rebounds. Looking back, Richardson felt “the best team didn’t win.” Jones also felt that way. “We played great,” Jones said. “If we play like that the rest of the year, we should have a good season.” Richardson was especially pleased with the team’s defense, except when they switched to a zone. us,” he said. “Last “The year, we played the zone because we had to.

The Bulls will be hosting Buffalo State, D’Youville, Niagara, Canisius, and Erie Community College. Each team will bowl three games, and the team with the highest pin total will win. Coach Jane Poland promises there will be an exciting fight for first place between the two state powerhouses, the host Bulls and ECC. According to Poland, Erie Community College will be “the toughest team we bowl all year.” Last year, Erie had "two bowlers in the nationals, Sue Fulton and Cindy Coburn. Fulton is a very strong bowler who uses an three-step unconventional approach (instead of the usual four or five steps most bowlers use). Coburn is the daughter of professional bowler Doris Coburn and she averages between 203 and 209. “They (Erie) have the best team in the state,” declared Poland. State Champions The Bulls, who won the state championship last year, also have a powerful team, despite the loss of one of their top bowlers, Leslie Reynolds. Poland has her line-up for the first team set, except for a question mark at the fifth spot. Gigi Ruddy, who captured the state title last year; has been a steady bowler in practice with a 175-180 average, and she will head the first team, along with junior Pat Schafer, another strong bowler. Liz Wolszczak, a junior, will probably start, but a knee injury she sustained while roller kkating puts her in doubt. Jane Vowaczyk little but lately, inconsistent her experience bowling under pressure Will make her a probable first team starter. The fifth spot will either go to senior Angie Stefanucci or sophomore Chris Clemente. “I’m trying to find a person who’s confident and ready,” Poland commented about the search for a fifth player. has been a Bevilacqua, Lorna Diane Weyer.

Student Association President Steven Schwartz said he is completely in favor of the change; and said the Student Senate will vote on the issue at its next meeting. Council Student College David Brownstein Representative Housing accused .the .current an harboring of administration anti-student attitude and of dealing an overly students, in with ”1 right manner. think businesslike run a Housing is like third-rate now cheap motel,” he said. It “has not done one single thing for the students either individually or as a whole in my three years' experience here, and 1 think switching them to Student Affairs would eliminate the businesslike attitude and bring in a student personnel perspective.” Brownstein feels that the two administrative stalls in question tend to take on the personalities of their respective directors, that' is. Vice Student Affairs President for and Vice Richard Siggelkow and President for Finance Management Edward Doty. "Doty doesn’t get involved because he chooses not to,” said Brownstein. "Housing would benefit students most under the direction of Student Affairs. Siggelkow’s staff and his personal attitude both display an intense concern for students’ needs.” however, indicated SiggelkOw. that he wanted no part of the plan, saying. “I don't want it and I’m not seeking it. I don't control Housing and I don’t know of any specific i know of one letter complaints from the Colleges which speaks very the present of highly administration.” Siggelkow said he has received no statements from IRC, the Student Association or anyone else that Housing is being run badly. He added that he has no idea if the change would bring about an improvement for students, and that all possible efforts should be made to resolve the. problem without a change of administration. In u _ - A little puzzled Doty was also unaware of the IRC decision. “I haven’t heard anything from IRC or SA at all. he said. “No one from IRC has seen me or talked to me or asked to talk to me. 1 m a little puzzled by it." Doty said the idea of the switch arose last year when President Robert Ketter appointed evaluating review the to committees vice presidents performance of his departments. It was the committee assigned to Student Atlairs that recommended the change. Doty then asked the committee evaluating the Office of Finance and Management to look into the matter. Ultimately Siggelkow was consulted as to whether or not he thought the change was appropriate. Siggelkow said he would prefer to maintain the status quo. When asked about Brownstein’s comment regarding Doty’s lack of involvement with students, Doty said. “I think that’s a fair and accurate statement. I don’t seek them out, hut 1 have reasonable faith in Mr. Leonard Snyder, who reports directly to me.” Snyder is an Assistant Vice'President responsible for the administration of Housing and F »od Service. Doty explained that he delegates authority to assistant vice presidents who handle the problems more directly. Doty also said he does not feel his stall an businesslike overly acts m manner, citing a letter from Dean at the Colleges Irving Spit/berg. in which Spit/berg (on behall ot the Colleges) praised the present stall. "Housing has accommodated the Colleges oI needs the administration, and I think that s good,” Brownstein said. "I think that Housing has been very good to the administration, but when if comes down to students on a one-to-one level. I think Housing has been totally unresponsive. Dean Spit/berg, I think, does not know what the problems of. the students are. I think he is’being irresponsible to his own students . it he sayd Housing is being responsive to their needs.” Negligent in assisting last year while Brownstein was president of IRC. "1 can show you in my files a six month period during which I received no Housing memos, even though I specifically asked for them,” Brownstein said. He also cited a memo of his in which he asked Doty for an evaluation of allegedly inefficient Housing staff, the resignation of a particular Housing staff member* and an investigation of non-student resident advisors. The reply from Doty was short, and touched only on the relatively unimportant issue of the non-resident RA's. said Brownstein. Concerning the memo. Doty Brownstein’s countered that w - _ taken Housing refuses to allow tor breaches of contract, no matter how badly the student has to leave, said Brownstein. Housing has consistently taken the business approach due to concern over funding, he added. When these same cases were brought to Siggelkow. the problems were immediately resolved. an IRC recalled Brownstein last Housing lawsuit filed against constitutionality year concerning the of rt»e dorm contract, with particular reference to the entering of dorm rooms by custodial statt without notice. The matter was settled out of court, but Housing has not acted in the spirit of the agreement since then, he said. concerned Another complaint Housing's lack of communication He indicated two circumstances under which Custodial Services would enter a room unannounced. These would be it the room to Housing believed contain either lounge furniture or a safety hazard. Doty also denied that Housing is unreasonable in dealing with breaches of contract, pointing out that dorm residence and food service contracts are optional here, unlike most other schools, and that Housing now offers a one semester contract. Siggelkow commented that he often has more information about students than Doty does, and that he tries to convince Doty to reverse some X \ I * *** * '*** vmm/f ,1 Edward Doty David Brownstein requested evaluation in tact did take place in the form of Ketter s evaluating committees, and that he would not respond in writing to a personal attack on any of his employees. Housing Director Madison Boyce admitted that there was a six month period during which no memos were sent to Brownstein. However, Boyce felt that Brownstein was equally uncommunicative- “We offered to have weekly or regular meetings and he said he was too busy to do that,” said Boyce, adding that Brownstein did not even bother to have his committee meet with executive decisions, usually successfully. No contract breaches have been permitted without Doty's approval, Siggelkow added. Doty admitted that Housing does congenial for the not aim atmosphere of the Colleges. He said that RA’s are there to assist students and anything much beyond that would constitute over-organization. “I have not sensed the need of something which could be supplied by the administration,” Doty said. IRC President Frank Laghezza has not yet made up his mind on the ; Brownstein went on to mention specific instances of what he viewed as neglect on tlie part of Housing. He be should Housing t hat said responsible for providing a congenial living atmosphere for residents not belonging to the Colleges. He Housing that was complained students negligent in assisting those whose rooms were inadequately heated last year, and further that upper level administration had to be contacted before any action was people Housing Boyce denied that Housing was negligent concerning last year’s situation, inadequate heating insisting that Housing was busy working on the problem the next day. He said that Housing had no way of anticipating the problem since the incident occurred during the first year of room occupancy. Boyce added that students were immediately ottered alternate accommodations. The rooms have since been repaired. Deliberately misinformed When asked about unwarranted entry into students’ rooms, Doty said. “If it’s true, then I've been deliberately misinformed by several issue. “Housing has been insensitive to students at some point, and an evaluation has got to be made,” he said. Laghezza said he will conduct personal interviews with Housing staff and students, and that IRC will administer a written survey to dorm students. The results will be published and made available to the university feels that community. Laghezza be resolved without problems should switch of administration if a possible, but said. “If I can find substantial evidence that Housing is completely business oriented with little or no concern for the dorm student. I’ll do everything within my power to have Housing and Custodial Services moved from Finance and Management to Student Affairs.” �‘Teaching effectiveness’ accuracy’: ‘In the interest of Computer problem credit/contacy hour system bungles evcilucition is the of the Faculty Senate on Contact/Credit Hours.

On June 30, 1976, the SONY Vice Chancellor for Academic Programs announced that, “in the interest of accurate academic measurement and cross-campus comparability,” the SUNY system as a whole would be patterned on the “Carnegie Unit” for the measurement of undergraduate academic credits. In brief, one semester credit hour at the lower and upper division levels is to be earned for each 50-minute session of classroom instruction during a 15-week semester, with a normal expectation of two hours of outside study for each Class session.

The major task at the present time is revising the original Interim Report, issued on May 26, 1976. The original Interim Report is comprised of four basic charges to the committee which reads; 1. .Recommend that this University’s institutional philosophy and objectives should be with regard to all levels of athletics (e.g., intercollegiate, club sport, intramural, and recreational sports) for all sports. 2. Develop and recommend a 3 to 5 year funding program which will provide stable fiscal support for athletics consistent with these objectives. .These coaching consideration: a) the anticipated future funding program proposed; b) the proposed realtionships between athletic and academic programs; and c) the University’s criteria for term appointments, promotions, and continuing appointments. major “problems” facing EL SNOWSHOE the committee at the present time are in regards to aspired and realistic levels of competition. continued 1435 Millersport at Maple Road on page 10 SCATE forms next week Student Association urges all students to attend their classes next week to fill out Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE).

These include fighting for the mainte.ance of the four credit-course load system, the allowance of tuition deferrals, and Spectrum Staff Writer plans to attack the 'problem of adequate student representatibn opposition to proposed changes in the PSU grading system. The Student Senate discussed the implementation of PSU grading at the discretion of the departments, and by a 23-1-4 margin, voted • to oppose the Wednesday. Further demands include a revision of the complete emancipation guidelines that the accompany new filing procedures for TAP. Many students’ TAP awards have been seriously delayed because of the confusion that occurred in the filing and processing of forms by the computers. The SUNY system has a $65,000,000 bond due to the State of New York by March 15, 1977, and the money is expected to come from students’ tuition “poorly organized” pass-fail option included in the new grading proposal. The Senate also voted 28-0-2 to oppose S-U grading because of the extra confusion it causes when both faculty and students are required to go to Admissions and Records within a four week period after the semester has started to obtain the pass-fail option. Heightened awareness The three other committees all presented a synopsis of what their goals are. The budget committee stressed the need for heightened student support via a massive payments. If TAP doesn’t come through, and no deferrals are granted, then many students will be forced out of school because they don’t have the cash on hand to pay their tuition bills. publicity campaign to question and analyze the formation of the new SUNY budget in the Spring.

New committee’s report In other business, four newly committees; organized SA Budget, SUNY Platform, and Affirmative Action, Unionization, all presented plans for future projects. The major issues that require immediate attention were concentrated in Unionization Committee on “across-the-board” issues that are “everybody’s business.” College Council Representative David Brownstein reported on a College Council conference in Albany that he attended qver the weekend. Brownstein, the only student among many wealthy businessmen at the meeting, attempted to prevent approval of move to end -mandatory a disclosure of financial records by individuals up for appointment to the Council. His proposal was rejected 96 to 1. Brownstein’s second proposal was to request that open hearings be conducted at SUNY schools so students could voice their gripes to the Council. This motion was tabled by a vote of 96 to I until the next meeting, which is scheduled for November of 1977. The final blow was struck, when the however, Council appointed six new members, and rather than appointing a student, left the seventh vacant position open. Brownstein described his weekend as “very frustrating.” In other business, the Senate recognized the Jewish Defense League as- a non-funded political organization, the Massadah Youth Movement a<! a non-funded organization, and the Students a Council as Programming non-funded club whose goal is to improve the planning of activities among SUNY schools.

But he stressed that policy is carried out by western governments without the consent of their citizenry.

The proposal passed was a substitute amendment offered by Sub Board Vice Chairman Mitchell Zoler. The original proposal, submitted by SA President Steve Schwartz, called for the institution of minority coordinators for each Sub Board division. Backers of the original proposal said they needed more time, but their motion to table discussion was narrowly defeated. Board member Steve Cohn, who supported the original proposal, said Thursday’s action was a response to the minority boycott of UUAB events. He felt that the people involved with the boycott the minority coalition should be involved in the discussion. Cohn said the issue.was one of cultural domination. Tyrone Wilson, who was in charge of last year’s UUAB minority programming, felt that in order for Sub Board to encourage minority interest and involvement in programming, minorities must be able to see the fruits of their labor through control of funds. Wilson, who attended the meeting for SA Minority Affairs Coordinator and minority coalition leader Ed Guity, said the coalition basically■ wishes to separate minority and white programming. Questioning the necessity of the minority programming line. Sub Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde asked Wilson if last year’s UUAB music chairman had been more cooperative, would the initial need for the minority line have arisen. Wilson said no, but added that since there had been one already is looking for its reinstatement. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller, who opposed the original amendment, said Sub Board can do an admirable job with its present structure and that he believes in “the abstract concept of the - University.” Other business attended to at the meeting included introduction of Ora Clark', an undergraduate, and Roy two new board members Smuckler, a dental student. Guhlow resigns Roller announced that Linda Guhlow, head of the family Planning Clinic, was resigning effective December 31. There was a recommendation to draw up a job description for the position by the middle of December to assure a smooth transition. Treasurer Lalonde said in his report that all Sub Board projects are meeting expected revenue levels except Htlws. Ricky Yaverbaum, Publications Division Director, explained that revenues for h'lhos have fallen far behind and that an issue next semester has been canceled. Amherst Division Director Joyce Levin discussed setting up a satellite ticket office on the North Campus which Sub Board would partially fund. Estimates on the renovation of Fargo Cafeteria needed to accommodate coffee houses have been set at S4400 and SI 2,000 depending on where the wall is constructed.

John Devine. Assistant Regional Director of the Office of Human Development for the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (hEW) addressed'a room of about 50 people to open the two-day conference sponsored by the Multi-disciplinary Center for the Study of Aging and the Faculty of Law and Jurisprudence in cooperation with the Buffalo - Legal Counseling for the Elderly Project Devine emphasized that the rash of editorials and. television specials concerning the elderly are not solutions to “what we all know arc deep-rooted structural problems in our society. Instead. Devine suggested that a reorganization of social services for the elderly, and a change in social perception would help curtail neglect ol the aged. Recently. a series of investigations on home health care facilities in various communities was undertaken, and a book of recommendations was compiled by III VV. Also, studies have been made on nursing homes, legal services for the aged, and the Community Action Corps, all of which aim to aid the elderly. The drawings of James Pappas, Associate Professor in Art and Black Studies here, is currently on exhibit until November 30 at the Carriage House Gallery, located at 408 Franklin Street in Allentown. The gallery is opened daily, excepting Monday. The featured work consists of large-scale conceptual drawings, conveying at excitement that is concrete, and yet, fluid in motion. These drawings elicit an energy that parallels Pappas' own career.

He fell that reorganization-of youth services was also desperately needed. If these Services can improve, and then join with elderly services, youth can become more aware of the hardships the elderly endure. In New York City and Dayton. Ohio, two programs were set up to allow high school students and drop-outs to become involved with the aged of those communities. The students provided personal service for the disabled elderly and chauffeured them to senior citizen centers. ‘are the only places where xplained Devine they (the elderly) feel secure. It's not like in pre-industrialized Europe where silting in' the park playing cards was safe. They didn’t have to .worry about rapists, muggers or murderers." Devine stressed the change in social perception of the aged since that time in Europe has caused the elderly to be faced with the terror of everyday life. What many of today’s elderly miss is the feeling of community. Devine pointed'oul how in Indian societies the elders were treated with reverence and love.-Today, the elderly are alienated by most of the population, and thus feel rejected. In addition to Devine’s opening statement, there were subsequent lectures and workshops on various concerns of the aged. Income management and maintenance, the rights of institutionalized elderly, and protective services were among those topics discussed by various experts in the respective fields. 836-7100 Fri. beginning Wed.

Theater* Sponsored by the �Commentary New questions raised about FBI surveillance by Brett Kline l-'catwc hdiior The release by the FBI of a file kept on a graduate student at this University has raised anew questions about past and present FBI sutveillance of leftist activity on campus and in the surrounding community. Pages of the file reveal the definite use by the FBI of informants and undercover agents who regularly attended meetings of so-called radical organizations and reported on individuals active therein, and who monitored student activities on campus. Other portions point to direct communication between the FBI and local police forces, including Campus Security and United States Customs officials. The subject of the file, Paul Krehbiel. a former instructor in Social Science College and currently a Contributing Fditor to The Spectrum, had demanded its release by right of the Freedom of Information Act and the Privacy Act of 1 074 (Title 5. US Code Sections 552 and 552a). I he first page, dated 4/7/70, is full of empty spaces as are many of those that follow. They were censored to keep secret the names of sources and informants. It begins: "On 6/5/60 . . . advised that the subject was handing out anti-draft literature at Tonawanda High School." This “memorandum” establishes that krehbiel participated in "anti-draft activities” in the Buffalo area, and alludes to a certain "case file," which clearly indicates that there were previous, written records on him not included in t he release. American is drafted.” Immediately following this, another reads: "The subject was present at . . . New York when a discussion .was held . . . but the subject did not actively participate," Krehbiel’has stated that, although he does not recall the exact meeting in question, many such meetings consisted of no more than ten or fifteen people. This reveals the actual high level of infiltration of leftist organizations by the FBI. in general and specifically in Buffalo. On August I, I 000. two cartons of anti-draft literature were confiscated from Krehbiel by United States Customs Deletion of names The deletion of pertinent information and names, which in some cages leaves no more than three or four written lines on a page. is. provided for by various subsections of Section 552 of the U.S. Civil Code. Such instances include; information classified in the interest pi national security, materials related to the internal practices of the I B1 and any “inhibitive" force thereon, and records revealing the names of informants and undercover agents and making public their investigative techniques. The IBI's internal practices and national investigative techniques include trying to get teacheprtired. distributing phoney, right-wing newsletters on college campuses, and writing anonymous letters to the parents ot student activists, according to a HufJ'uh■ Krening Amo article dated June 25. 1975. The Justice Department was forced to release at that time certain I Bl records of COINT1 LI’RO operations, a program began in May. 1668 that was reported to have terminated in April. 1671. The known targets ot these operations included black liberation organizations, "New Left” groups, the peace movement and the Communist Party. Recognizing the critical importance ol the Communist Party, the TBI singled it out for the largest number of operations. Succeeding pages of Krehhiel’s tile establish his affiliations with the Buffalo Draft Resistance Union (DRU) and with the campus chapter of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS).on which basis the Buffalo FBI continued to actively monitor his activities. One unidentified source considered him to be a "behind the scenes leader" of some SDS activities in Buffalo. Information taken in Norton Krehbiel's name, address and phone number of the time appeared on an SDS mailing list taken from a drawer in the group's office in Norton Hall and relayed to the FBI. One page quotes the March 12. 1968 edition of The Sfh’ctnini, which characterizes the DRU as a movement "not to restore the 2-S classification but to see that no charges, any one of which could result in at least a ten thousand dollar t ine and/or imprisonment for'up to ten years The essential element of the charge of Advocating Overthrow of the Government is found in the clause; specific intent to overthrow the government by force and violence as speedily as circumstances permit." Another clause of US Code 2385 states that "Active membership in an organization engaged in illegal advocacy, by one having guilty knowledge and intent, is.a sufficiently substantial relationship to criminal activity of advocacy of violent overthrow of the government to satisfy concept of personal guilt and to render members criminally of the responsible advocacy for the illegal . organization ...” However, because of the complex and often confusing wording of the code and clauses, it is difficult to discern if membership in the Communist Party would qualify one for such a charge. > Spectrum articles cited Krehbiel spent two weeks in the Soviet Union in January, 1074. on , a trip sponsored hy the National Council of American Soviet Friendship, and also visited Cuba in the summer of that year as one of five student journalists invited by the national Cuban youth newspaper.

The challenge this year is much because it claims to have no basis in educational matters.

There are many segments of this University which already are on a one-to-one contact/credit hour arramgement. There are units which have been granting four credits for many more than four contact hours, particularly in science classes requiring laboratory work. For these students, and they may comprise the majority of the University, the change in contact/credit hours is the first step toward a more equitable education. Their semesterly course load is likely to remain at four. For those in the social sciences and humanities, however, the to the Kililor change will more likely mean a jump from four to five courses per semester.

Webster’s New 20th Century social sciences and this time with the help of those who presided Dictionary defines thanksgiving as; “A form of over the innovations. It continues this University's ominous drift to the words, as a grace, giving thanks to the Divine Being.” It defines Thanksgiving Day as; “a day set apart by educational right only this time, in the name of austerity. executive Authority for public thanksgiving and Praise to Cod.” The tradition of a thanksgiving ritual and day can be traced back to the arrival of the Pilgrim-laden Mayflower which anchored at Plymoth Rock on December 21, 1620.

Monday, 22 November 1976 The United States has been a Blessed country favors which he has bestowed upon them. In the past, most Americans were not reluctant or too busy to say prayers of thanks. In recent years, too many Americans have thought themselves exempt from saying thank-you. Even if you do not believe in a Higher Power, you can still show your appreciation to Nature or the Nation, by a sign of gratitude on Thanksgiving Day. Many of our greatest leaders have been men who were not afraid to pray and thank God for benefits and even for trials and tribulations. Some of these men were: George Washington, Ben Franklin. Thomas Jefferson, Abe Lincoln and Dwight D. Eisenhower. Their great humanitarian achievements and their ethical use of the governmental power given them are partially the results of their spiritual endeavors. Many of us have been in some very dangerous life and death situations and if, for nothing else, we can give thanks for making it safely through. Most of us have loved ones and friends, who have given us warmth and joy. and many of us have excellent opportunities for u good education and a well paying position.

We take a look at what we have, we will come to ibc honest conclusion that we have good reason to give thanks.

Vets Association �Guest Opinion by PODER of the Third World Students Association After 30 years of intense struggle, Spain was forced to grant Puerto Rico a rather large degree of autonomy in 1897. However, Spain lost the “Spanish-American War” and was compelled to “cede” the island of Puerto Rico and other colonies to the U.S. in 1898. In July of the same year U.S. armed forces occupies Puerto Rico, dissolved the Parliament, and established U.S. rule by force. Puerto Rico has been a subjugated colony of the U.S. over since. Today U.S. government has exclusive control over Puerto Rico in questions concerning citizenship, foreign aftairs, immigration and emigration, foreign trade, currency, the postal service, radio and TV, and air and maritime transport. Any decision made by Puerto Rico’s Supreme Court may be overturned by the federal courts of the U.S. All laws passed by the U.S. Congress automatically apply in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico has no voting representatives in the Congress. One of the niost brutal examples of U.S. colonial all defense, domination of Puerto Rico is the fact that 12 percent of the best arable land on the isalnd is exclusive U.S. military property, including nuclear weapons and guided missiles bases. A military personnel estimated at approximately 50,000 strong Is stationed permanently in Puerto Rican territory. This formidable military presence serves to protect and advance U.S. interest in Latin America (The U.S. invasion of the Dominican Republic in 1965 was staged from these bases.). U.S. monopoly controlled industralization of Puerto Rico has distorted the Puerto Rican economy, completely destroying the agriculture and forcing over 40 percent of the population to migrate to U.S. looking for jobs. An oppressed “internal colony” of two million Puerto Ricans has been created this way in the mainland (20 percent of the Puerto Rican nation is crowded in the slums of New York City). In, 1970 60 percent of the potential work force of Puerto Rico was either unemployed or underemployed and 81,8 percent of the population earned less than 3000 dollars a year. U.S. monopolies’one billion investrtient, however, pays aboslutely no taxes from a period of 10-17 (and up to 30 years in some “special cases” enjoys a profit return of more than 28 percent; gets the full investment back in less than four years; and are free to make a clear profit for up to 13 years thereafter. At the end of the 17 year tax exemption period, many firms close down and either leave the island currently 85 percent of or reopen under another name Puerto Rico’s economy is U.S. monopoly controlled. Unemployment and miserable incomes brought by U.S. monopoly control are accompanied by inadequate or more than 40 percent of the deteriorating housing population lives in houses that do not meet health and safety requirements. The cost of basic goods is 25 percent higher than in most American cities. The colonialist solution to the plight of unemployment and poverty has been a U.S. financed campgian of forced sterilization to 35 percent of Puerto Rican control the population women of child bearing age have already been sterilized. The case of Puerto Rico illustrates quite clearly how locking countries of the Third U.S. imperialism operates World into an endless cycle of underdevelopment. The Puerto Rican people have a tradition of struggle for national independence. Since the days when the island ; — — - belonged to Spain Puerto Ricans have fought to cbntrol their own destiny. In the 50’s the Jayuya armed rebellion took place under the leadership of the nationalists headed by Albizu Campos. The national guard crashed the rebellion in blood. In response to the repression an attack against Truman and Congress was organized by the nationalists in the U.S. to publicize the aims of the U.S. troops in the island. Five Andres Figueroa Cordero, Ervin Flores, nationalists Juanita Lebuon, Rafael Cancel Uiranad, and Oscar Collazo have been since that time in prison, the longest held political prisoners in the Western Hemisphere. This struggle is today rapidly growing, rooted among the .people and strengthened by the converging of workers’ struggles to organize in unions and to strike with the liberation struggle. Strikes among public employees have been bitterly - - fought to gain unionization and better conditions. Within the private sector labor struggles like the cement workers in Ponce which lasted almost a year have been mounting. University students have also waged struggles. In Rio Piedras students and faculty supports the public employees in their strike. The University was occupied by the police, closed temporarily, and right now 21 students are lacing trial. Because of this U.S. repression is intensifying, ranging from armed right-wing terrorists to U.S. intelligence and repressive agencies. However, people struggling for their independence are bound to be triumphant. The Puerto Rican people are struggling to defend the interests ot Puerto Rico and to put an end to the ruin, the economic stagnation, the unemployment, the poverty and exploitation, the military and atomic bases, the crisis of the country’s agriculture, the genocide, the illiteracy . .

Reiss Campus Kdilor When baseball arbiter Peter Seitz ruled last December that pitcher Andy Messersmith was a free agent, he did more than simply liberate a discontent player. Implicit in that "decision was the right of any player to play out his opt ion. Messersmith had signed a one year contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1974. When Messersmith requested a no-trade contract for the ’75 season, the Dodger barked. Under the rules of the contract game Messersmith could either sign with the Dodgers or play unsigned for an amount the Dodgers saw fit. Messersmith chose the latter route but embarked upon a course of action that none of baseball’s twenty-four owners predicted. Messersmith tested the clause in baseball’s rule book which maintained that a player who toils one year under contract and the subsequent year unsigned should be liberated from any obligation to his team. ' Foul! It was very clearly stated in the rules that a team could renew an unsigned player’s contract for one lull year after which time the player is entitled to be declared a free agent. In fact, no player had ever attempted to take advantage of the rule before Messersmith. It had been common practice for a team to renew a contract for an indefinite number of years. Seitz however interpreted “one full year” to mean 365 days, not eternity and was promptly freed by the owners for his wisdom. So self Seitz simply upheld a decision which should have been explanatory. “Foul,” cried the owners. “How can we now keep our prisoners from running off to the big cities?’ they wept. “How can we keep our boys from being kidnapped, making the rich richer and the poor poorer?” they sobbed. Their argument was simple. How can there be justice in feels a system in which a player can leave his employer if he can no longer he is underpaid. How injudicious that a player be bound for life to a team that he never chose to join The owners all painted a black portrait of what was sure to follow. Players would (lock to New York and Los Angeles, the glamour cities ol the Major Leagues. The tew rich teams would corner the free agent market, leaving the penniless multitudes choking in their dust. The new precedent would portend a stampede of the most talented athletes to teams that are already established winners. The owner of the Montreal Fxpos, a team that had only once finished out of last place in a division dominated by the Pirates and Mets, declared the new rule would destroy baseball’s delicate competitive balance. One certain method of preventing a cascading flood ot free agents is for teams to pay their players appropriately. The Detroit Tigers, a losing team in a glamourless city, had all their players signed by early summer. This was achieved simply because the Tigers were generous and smart enough to spend a few thousand dollars today, rather than lose their players to the competition tomorrow. The theory of the few rich teams tapping the well is misconceived. Witness the National League Last. Phil Wrigley ofWrigley Gum and Gussie Busch of Anheiser Busch own the Cubs and Cardinals respectively. The Mets and Phillies each have a huge following and a bankrole to match while the Lxpos (multi-million dollar offers to Dave Cash and Gary Mathews) and the Pirates are well to do owners. Greed Owners of teams in other divisions are not substantially different financially as a whole, and include such wealthy barons as Atlanta’s Ted Turner, New York’s George Steinbrenner and McDonald’s Ray Crock. The best team argument has been completely disarmed. of As Friday all eight free agents who had signed on with new teams did so with clubs that had less successful records than the player’s previous team. In the midst of the owners’armageddon last December, Mets’ pitcher Tom Seaver offered the most poignant assessment of all. Said Seaver, “The owners don t need protection from the players. What they really need is protection from the other owners.” In view of the enthusiasm with which owners have persued free agents thus far, Seaver’s point seems to ring true. The only instrument that keeps an owner in constant fear of losing a player to free agent status is the greed of fellow comrades in arms. They holler rape when one of their birds leave the nest, yet wait like vultures with teeth sharpened in anticipation of the same misfortune striking their neighbor. All the owners need do to put an end to their predicament is simply refuse to sign any free agents. If all the King’s men joined hands and agreed not to sign any serf who may betray them, there would be no point in gaining free agent status. In the event that the freebirds were suddenly spurned by the clubs that presumably should be salivating at the opportunity to sit in their presence, baseball would soon find itself with very few free agents to contend with. The star would be in a position tantamount to that of a .200 hitter who gains his freedom only to find his services not required. Inevitably, he pines for his old contract with his old team and wishes he’s never left. The problem of course is that no owner would trust his fellow comrade farther than he could spy on him. It is not unlike playing Risk and the guy next to you promises never to attack you. Confident of his honesty and good intentions, you maneuver your men appropriately. The opportunity eventually presents itself for your friend to view an attack on you as a perfect strategic move. He then blasts you ott the board, finishing the game with all the power. Nothing would prevent an owner from slipping a few bucks under the table and coming away with a fist lull of free agents at a considerably reduced rate. The other owners would publicly castigate the traitor and then engage in a price war for the services of the remaining players. The system of exile would never work because owners could never trust the intentions of each other. In other words, owners need protection from themselves. Monday, 22 November 1976 . The Spectrum . Page seven �TREK" STAR "INSIDE (where no record company has gone before) Gene Roddenberry, creator, producer and warp-drive force behind "Star Trek," now reveals in his own words, for the first time ever, all the fascinating input that went into the making of this legendary TV show. A brand-new record album:"lnside Star Trek" Featuring William Shatner as Captain Kirk,DeForest Kelley as Dr. McCoy, Mark Lenard as Sarek, Spock's father, and renowned scientist/author Dr. Isaac Asimov as himself. "Inside Star Trek": The behind-the-scenes stones of the voyages of the starship "Enterpi "Inside Star Trek" Narrat by Gene Roddenberry. Th is the one and only Star T Shatner program, again To the Editor. I have silently been reading the ongoing debate in The Spectrum that William Shatner’s appearance at this campus recently seemed to have triggered. Actually, with the theme “Where are the Intellectuals,” it brought to the surface the underlying social and academic discrimination and prejudice of the “super-intellectual” against those not afraid to admit and enjoy being average. I wish the more “exclusive” members of this University would end arrogant, conceited attacks on aspects of University life that exist either for of the soul, or entertainment, enrichment enrichment of the body instead of the mind. Admittedly, people like Mr. Watson have made enormous contributions to society and deserve praise. Yet, isn’t Moe Howards contribution of bringing laughter and happiness for over 40 years to millions of children and adults around the world also deserving of praise and recognition? Knowledge and education are gainpd in places other than textbooks and classrooms. It should be recognized that for a well-rounded education a human being should be exposed to many aspects of the real world, as well as different people and activities. Unless, of course, your goal is to, computerize the mind and soul so it can be closed and programmed in accordance with the desires of intellectual elitists. For those of you who enjoyed Mr. Watson, great! Enjoy it and be happy. Don’t worry, because those of us who enjoy living life as much as studying life won’t put you down because of what you enjoy. Dennis Delia album. On Columbia Records and Tapes. ** • "COLUMBIA * MARCASRtG t 1976 CBS INC Not a failure or success , To the Editor. . A COLLEGE RING. It’s a symbol for life We all know that statistics can be very deceptive. Nor would 1 want to infer from what is said here that I feel that either Minorities or Women have achieved satisfactory progress in their movements toward adequate and equal opportunity and status. I emphatically do not. Nevertheless, the figures quoted in The Spectrum of November 17 do not support Dr. Kelly’s contention of a “significant gain for Minorities and Women” during the period 1970 to 1975. While SUNY’s total faculty was increasing by 9%, the Feminine component of that faculty was increasing by 12%, the Black component by 24%, and the Hispanic by over 200%. This is not as much progress as most of us would have liked, but I think it does a disservice to the intentions and efforts of the many who have contributed to this progress to label Affirmative Action a failure. That there is much more yet to be done is, of course, obvious. E. W. Doty Murderous terrorists To the Editor. 1 am writing in response to the articles on Southern Africa in November 17 The Spec trum. The Spectrum supposedly printed these articles to show the relevance of third world nations in our lives. It is easy to see, however, that The Spectrum, in siding with the black terrorists in Southern Africa, is openly implying that it wouldn’t mind a race war in Africa. How can a newspaper that is always denouncing violence of any kind possibly want such a thing? Obviously by printing these articles, The Spectrum implies that it agrees with their content. The article on Apartheid claims black wages are less than one tenth of white earnings. It effectively fails to mention, however, that the wages of blacks in South Africa are higher than the wages of any other blacks in Africa. It also fails to mention how the legally elected government of South Africa has set up hospitals and schools for blacks, more modern than any others for blacks in Africa. I also would like to give rify best wishes to the Rhodesian government in its effort to protect the Rhodesian people (black and white) from the murderous terrorists who are attacking Rhodesia. John Van Gelder Page eight . The Spectrum Monday, 22 November 1976 . �Religious percentages Retain S/U system To'the Editor. It would appear that the Jewish Student Union has difficulty admitting an error (if Roy Schmukler is a representative of that august body). His response to my initial letter concerning the Calendar Committee and Religious Holidays neither addresses the specifics nor the substance of my letter. Let me state them again: (1) The protest about Yom Kippur this (1976) year not being an observed holiday came far'too late for anything to be accomplished. If JSU wanted to make the point for next year, that should have been openly stated. (2) JSU cited that this University has a 20% Jewish population. This is WRONG! The Jewish percentage is 1 1.8%. Catholics are 38.4%, Protestants 17.4% and No Preference 17.9%. I called the JSU and strongly asked that they correct this figure error in the public press. Since they did not or would not, I did. (3) The percentage of a population in terms of religious preference should not be the deciding factor in terms of calendar holidays observed by this school, since regardless of the percentage, the religious observance is as real for the 1% as it is for 50%; such action is proven. For Roy Schmukler’s further information, I was a part of the deliberations in 1974 concerning the Spring coterninous celebration of Easter/Passover Break. The main then and now is that when this occurs, it must do so to allow 4 weeks of classes after returning from that Spring Break. This is the guideline Student Association “demanded” in 72-73 or some time in the early seventies. So if the Easter/Passover-Spring Break do not coincide in the next few years, it will be for that reason, or that Easter and Passover do not fall within the same week. While JSU may have been the initial group to protest the issue concerning such a coinciding break, it was at my initiation that the Calendar Committee met and invited representatives from the campus ministry to solve this issue. The Calendar Committee has promised to plan the Spring Break to coincide with Easter/Passover when the above mentioned limitation is met. Again ] say, perhaps it would be more appropriate to have off Yom Kippur instead of Columbus Day. But we must be ever aware of all for regardless of the religions and their holidays for percentage of the religiouns and their holidays regardless of the percentage of the population, it is just as meaningful to the persons involved! To the Editor I would like to point out my disagreement the proposed S/U and P/F policies presented by the Faculty Senate (The Spectrum, Nov. 3, 1976 and The Reporter. Oct. 28, 1976). Presently, the S/U option allows a student to take a maximum of 25 percent of his/her total load at U.H. ’S/U. The proposed S/U will limit the students to 25 percent per semester. Occasionally a student may be registered for four (4) courses, drops one, and is left with three, one of which may have been intended as S/U; however, with 3 courses left one course represents 33 percent of the semester total. What happens then? In other occasions students may have completed most of their require major courses and is taking a major course, a distribution and two electives. The proposed option will limit the student to one S/U course; however under the present system, the student could take his non-major for S/U as long as the 25 percent for the total load for the degree is not exceeded. Second, the P/F system will not encourage students' to register for courses unless they ate required by the major. This system will penalize students if they fail (F), but will not reward them if they pass (P). According to , The Reporter (Oct. 28. 1976), the P like the S and the U, “will not be figured into a student’s Quality Point Average, but the grade F will be averaged together with students’ other grades” (letter grades). Unfair! A P/F f will lower the average, but a P will not raise the average. Third, I would like to know how many students exceed (or abuse) the 25 percent limit on S/U grades? How many petitions are filed with the Committee on Degree Requirements to waive excess in order to graduate. Students are instructed that the S/U option is available the first four weeks of instruction, some professors extend that dateline for various reasons. Where is the abuse? The present S/U system motivates students to explore distribution, electives and College courses without fear of grading. It afford an exposure to an educational experience without fear of strenuous cpmpetition or the academic excellence expected in major courses. I hope we keep the present S/U as is! No — with - - No professor should be allowed to put any (4) pressure, real or subtle, on any student-who misses any class due to observing a religious holiday. I’ll be the first to demand action against such a professor if I gape! Rod Saunders Campus Minister Inalienable freedom To the Editor. Rod Saunders has asked us in the past why we want to follow our religion and remain Jewish, now he asks why we want to observe our Holydays. Do you have something against us? Why shouldn’t we be allowed to have classes off for Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur? I know full well about the fight against the Calendar Committee to get off for Passover-Easter/Spring recess —, I instigated it. Let me remind you that at that time, TWO YEARS ago, I brought up the question of getting off for the High Holydays, but they (the Calendar Committee) ignored me then, so we must use pressure tactics now. As for your figures on the percentage breakdown-, I don’t give a "damn for your figures, because we all know, as well as you, even if it is convenient not to believe it that many studertts, of all religions, refuse to answer that question on the data update form. And as for your Roman Catholics and Protestants, let me point out to you what one of It does your own ministers wrote to Dr. Ketter. not matter to me what you do (in regard to getting off Passover and Easter), because all good Catholics — can observe their religion after hours. May I remind you that Judaism is not an after hours’ religion. Just by holding classes on these days we are being discriminated against. Professors continue on with new work regardless of the day, and because of this, students are intimidated into attending classes. You only with say that professors give make-up work administrative pressure, and students are still penalized for missing classes. We DO NOT WANT classes on our Holiest of Days (it would be easier for all in the long run). WE DO NOT WANT to have to something choose between our religion and classes you do not have to do. We are forbidden to do certain things, we are forbidden to go to classes, and yet if we want to keep up with our work,,we must - - go- NOT WANT CLASSES on ROSH HASHANA AND YOM KIPPUR, this situation is intolerable and can not continue. Just as you get off Christmas which (conveniently?) comes out during winter/(Christmas) vacation and Easter Sunday.

On the violation contrary, 1 accept it as both unavoidable and actually necessary it a periodical is to evaluate issues from any perspective in an honest and consistent manner. For this reason 1 prefer to diversify my own information sources rather than accept any editor s claim to “balanced reportage.” On the other hand, 1 think it is fair to ask that a periodical like The Spectrum have its policies stated and debated. It is in this spirit that I write. My feelings about the military are the result of four years of personal experience. I was in the Air Force when the role of the military was lyider severe criticism. When asked how he could fly an aircraft and release its deadly payload on flesh below a pilot might reply: “1 just fly airplanes,” or “I just follow orders.” And so they did.

Faust Don’t support military To the Editor addressed note: The following letter was Faculty graduates” who rose to command levels only to become “tools” who denied any responsibility for their actions. Remember, these were people, no different from any of us, who could unleash flaming hell on people no different from themselves, and feel no responsibility. To convince well meaning, liberally educated college graduates like ourselves that there is honor and virtue in mass murder is the goal of military officers’ training. In my estimation, this is an abhorrent, perverse world-view that spiings from such a lowly, primitive level of consciousness that it must be opposed if we have any hope of living our lives without holocaust. It was largely the student press, writing from its perspective that made the nation face this reality and forced such lame justifications from our so-called “guardians.” For our student newspaper to run an ad for the military is to lend our tacit support to the mass murder industry. 1 think this is one industry that is unworthy of any form of support and I applaud The Spectrum's position. James C. Mahoney It’s difficult enough for pre-med, biology, chemistry, accounting and pre-law, etc. majors to keep up with taking 4 courses now. How do you expect these students to take 5 courses? Right now for example, I’m taking Organic Chemistry, Radiation Science and 12 credits or 4 credits per a distribution course course. My Organic class meets 3 times a week for 50 minutes. But 1 also spend 4 hours a week in lab. Are you planning on giving me 7 credits for this course? My Radiation Science course meets for 1 hour and 20 minutes, 2 times a week with a 3-hour lab every week. Are you going to give me 6 credits for this course? It’s enough that we only get 4 credits for our science courses now. At least getting 4 credits for electives makes up for it partly. Now you want to give us 3 credit elective courses and maybe 4 credits for courses with labs. How do I find the time to make up the missing credits. As a pre-med student, I know that it 1 took more than 4 courses, I would not do well in the courses I have. How can you possibly think I can take 5 courses when 3 and 4 courses are difficult enough! Picture taking Physics 113, Comparative Anatomy, Calculus 141, a distribution course maybe Sociology, and an elective! logic would indicate that I would have little time to study, never mind sleep! But remember, if you want 50 minutes to equal one credit hour, than make sure you stick to it and for every lab course you give us credit for every SO minutes we spend there. Fair is fair. I’m not saying that the system we have now is the greatest, hut it is better than what' you are proposing. Please reconsider your proposal. Maybe a system ot assigning credits to courses can be tormulated that will make fairer the system we have now and also fairness . . satisfy the new proposal.

The level of competition that Stale University of New York at Buffalo intercollegiate teams can perform at. was of major concern One feeling was the committee. should that the University perform at maximum capability in major sports, and derive funding to support such a program. The other major attitude held was that Buffalo should determine their level of competition by available funds, not prospective funds. competition means Top sports (including Division I football if indeed it returns to this campus) or possibly Division II (which the UB hockey team participates in). At the present time, however, the NCAA is for revising their criteria membership and participation in Division 1 and II. According to committee member Edwin Muto, Coordinator of Men’s Athletics, the criteria for membership in NCAA Division 1 may well, be beyond the means available at UB. An example of this would be the grant-in-aid policy that may be deemed effective by the NCAA. approve the they Should statement that each school participating in Division I spofts must provide student athletes with a set. minimum number of grant-in-aid awards, then Buffalo would automatically be excluded from Division I, due fo the SUNY system’s policy that grant-in-aid programs are prohibited.

At the present time, a certain portion of the fee major to is taken out for athletics. The fee itself is under the immediate of the Student auspices with other Association, authorization coming from other sources, for example the Student Affairs Council.

The Eagles slammed four goals past the rookie, and narrowly missed three others before Bagocus was given the night off after the first frame. When a new mask appeared in the Buffalo nets at the start of the second period in the form ot Johnny Moore, the Bulls began to stabilize themselves a little bit, and play some solid hockey. First, right wing Brian Grow took a neat Jack Kaminska pass ■ and slammed a 25-foot slap shot past Elmira goaltender Tony Cosmano. After Tom Dwyer scored Elmira’s second shorthanded goal of the night at 7:52, Kaminska and Ray Gruarin tallied for the Bulls, bringing the score to 5-3 after two. The line of Kaminska, Grow and Costello was the highlight ot the night for the Bulls as they displayed tremendous ot tensive firepower, and figured in. live of Buffalo’s six goals.

Basketball has become popular worldwide and here in the United States, it’s impossible to imagine a park or schoolyard without a basket.

The Bulls have not beaten Niagara since Richardson took over the coaching reins four years ago, and the team has been preparing tor the season for more than a month now. Guard Donald Scott said that all he was looking'forward to was the Niagara game, and then confidently predicted not only a win over Niagara, but that Buffalo would win the Big Four title as well. ' The attitude on the team has been vastly improved since last year. Scott said that the team is much more a unit this year. Another example is guard George Cooper, who has been acting as at) "assistant Assistant Coach.” Cooper showed his class by attending a meeting ol Students for the Future of Athletics, even though he is a senior. > - « First public showing Friday night, the basketball Bulls played an intrasquad game (which was open to the public). Sam Pellom. the nation’s leading rebounder, showed why he earned that title by pulling down 25 rebounds. He also led everyone in scoring with 26 points. Fd Johnson, a transfer from Albany, scored 26 points, and Eric Spence, when he was shooting free throws, looked very good. Spence blocked three shots, pulled dqwn 15 rebounds and played strong defense. Richardson was “75 percent pleased” with the team s performance. “We had too many turnovers and I don’t think we boxed .out well, but that’s my fault,” Richardson said, noting that he hadn't spent too much time on boxing out in practice. “Our shot selection was pretty good,” he continued. “The Blue team got behind and they played good defense, then the White team got behind and they played good defense. But we can’t wait to get behind before we start playing good defense.” Snyder attacks, gets attacked On Thursday of last week, the Bulls held their third annual pre-season luncheon at the Statler Hilton. The event was nearly sold out. The highlight of the luncheon was supposed to be a speech by Buffalo Braves owner Paul Snyder. However, Snyder didn't speak about Bulls’ basketball instead, he talked mainly abou the Braves.and how he earned his first 1 8 million dollars. He did take the time to criticize almost everyone, including himself, for not doing enough to support athletics at this University. (Snyder was a member of Buffalo’s wrestling team from 1953-57.) Snyder failed to say what everyone should do to further support athletics here. However, we’ll be watching you. Snyder, to see exactly whjit you do for athletics at this University.

This in effect would mean the end of the four course load. The Student Se nate unanimously passed a resolution supporting the present system of contact/credit hours and the four course load Wednesday afternoon. (The. Student Association strongly urged all students to attend the meeting of the Faculty in 144 Farber Hall Tuesday at 2 p.m., where the proposed change in contact/credit Senate hours and the four course load will be discussed.] The course load issue, was raised again this summer when' a Central issued SUNY memorandum formalizing the measure of a semester credit hour or unit, Carnegie as the satisfactory completion of one 50-minute session of classroom instruction per week for fifteen weeks, with several categories of exception. SUNY Binghamton is currently the only other SUNY unit which grants four credits for three 50-minute sessions per semester. Administrators and faculty there reportedly are also grappling with the affects of tht? memo from SUNY Vice Chancellor for Programs Academic Bruce Bearing. Since its issue, administrators and faculty at this University have been hinting that this is the last year for the four course load. Suggested resolutions The Faculty to scheduled is Senate discuss the committee report at its meeting Computer problems delay TAP checks by Jeff Strumeyer Staff Writer Spectrum Due to problems with a new computer system and application errors, the processing of applications for the tuition assistance program (TAP) has been delayed. According to John Kennedy of the Higher Educational Services Corporation (HESC), Student Financial Need Office, the new machine edit system which was instituted this year was not fully operable on time and caused an eight week delay in application processing. The manual system, which was used previously and was supposed to be a backup measure this year, proved inadequate, so despite the delay, the computer system had to be used. This problem was complicated by the fact that computer time is shared with other state agencies. In addition to computer problems, Kenny explained that of the 420,000 applications received, 123,000 had errors, ranging from failure to include parents’ income to forgetting to sign the form. Correction forms had to be sent to each of these applicants, of which only 39,000 students have responded. There are also 30,000 applications which are only in the keypunch stage and have not yet been processed. Confusion Further problems have resulted from more students applying for emancipated status. Due to recent legislation redefining independence, more information is needed from students. Unfortunately, the new form is extremely confusing, and some students have thrown away the form in disgust. Because large numbers of students rely on the TAP award to pay most or all of their tuition, which has caused problems for students Wishing to pre-register beginning Monday. Director of Student Accounts William Calhoun explained that pre-registration itself will not be held up for these students, but only the processing stage which starts December 10. Thus if notification is given before then, problems will be averted. Since there is a good chance that many awards will not arrive in time, Calhoun has prepared a proposal to alleviate the problem, whose details were not available at press time. Student Association of the State University (SASU) is presently lobbying for indefinite tuition referrals for all students who do not receive their TAP awards in time for spring registration. Planned revisions “Of greatest importance to us now is to get out as much information as possible,” to schools around the state so that they can see. how much money is coming from TAP, stated HESC President Eileen Dickenson. Dickenson explained that students who have questions about their application should include their batch and sequence number which can be found out at the Financial Aid office. Those students receiving Educational Opportunity Program (EOP) grants should request this information at the EOP office. Both Kenny and Dickenson promised that everything possible was being done to speed up the processing of information. They also stated that new drafts were already being prepared for next year’s applications, which will be revised to alleviate keypunch problems encountered with this year’s form, and to make it easier for students to complete. In addition, the form declaring emancipation will be included with the regular application. next Tuesday afternoon. The Committee on Contact /Credit Hours recommended the Faculty adapt the following resolutions: “1.. The Faculty Senate of Buffalo recognizes that general policy of this University Center must conform with current SUNY policies regarding the relatiopship of undergraduate courses .between contact hours and credit hours, save where educationally justifiable exceptions are approved by the appropriate University officers. 2. The Faculty Senate requests individual departments, programs and other course-originating units to make necessary adjustments in and undergraduate curricula schedules effective fall 1977, in SUNY accordance with institutional policy. 3. The Faculty Senate requests the Dean of the Division of Education Undergraduate periodically to report to it, on the changes of the progress necessitated by this policy.” The committee was chaired by Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs Claude Welch, who was undergraduate dean in 1969 when the four course load was begun here. It has been considered one of the more made vulnerable innovations under the adminsitration of University former President Martin Meyerson. the described Welch recommended resolution as a mandate,” “narrow which deliberately leaves unanswered many other issues, such as and distribution requirements number of required credit hours He said these majors. for questions will be dealt with by the Faculty Senate Committee on Educational Policy and Planning, which is expected to issue its report in early spring. Financial pressure The report also said it should be considered “an not abandonment of the attempt of the late 1960s to broaden individual student’s exposure to academic subjects, by permitting each to take a smaller number of courses than previously had been the case. “This recommendation makes it possible for units so desiring to continue this pattern, recognizing that SUNY Buffalo does not facilitate the slow phasing out of the old system. Welch indicated that the increased course load resulting from such a change would be by individual fiscal, and administrators here are considered in departments, who could either nearly unanimous acknowledging that the State increase faculty teaching load-or Division of the Budget is applying increase enrollment in classes. It is expected that any pressure to SUNY Central and individual campuses to change to changeover would be very closely a one-credit-forone-contact-hour monitored by United University pattern.

Lalonde said the proposed appropriated more money. enjoys the autonomy of, say, a private institution unaffected by system-wide requirements.” The most notable system-wide requirement in SUNY currently is MFC affected The most serious problem which would be created by the suggested change is in Millard Fillmore College. Since faculty salaries in that unit are based on contact hours, the committee report says a “major boost” in its instructional budget would be required, if the University as a whole decided to increase the number of contact hours. Possible problems in scheduling for three campuses were cited in the report. It also said appropriate “grandfather clauses” should be devised by academic units to change in contact/credit hours was being undertaken because of pressure from the Division of the Budget, and not as part of any academic consideration. Welch said in an interview Wednesday that there had not been any ongoing institutional the concerning reserach four-course load, but only brief evaluations earlier in its history.

The change evolved as a result of personnel answering the phone and identifying themselves as University police, without objection from the Administration, according to Director Pat Glennon. Glennon said the change was made to clarify the perceptions held by both outsiders and people on campus who did not understand the official duties and powers of the campus police force. He explained that it is “perfectly proper to call them police officers,” through the definition of the position and under the educational law. They are peace officers with police power in the performance of their duties. In 1970 the name of the then-Univeristy-Police was changed to Campus Security. Glennon added that it stemmed from the negative attitude toward the word “police” in the late 1960s. Problems arose over the ensuing years, according to Glennon, because people did not realize that Campus Security had arrest powers. Assistant Director Lee Griffin cited as an example a shop foreman on campus who refused to recognize the authority of an officer, which lead to a scuffle and the man’s subsequent arrest. If there is any emergency on campus requiring assistance, call University Police at telephone extension 2222.

It was not known in what way the financing was to be arranged The expansion program was to include the building of several new stores and a new 40,000 square foot building that would house new administrative offices. A warehouse would also be a large part of the proposed structure, and would become the major hub of Cavages’ regional distribution. The entire expansion, when completed, will bring total employment by Cavages to almost two hundred persons. The new warehouse and office building is planned to be finished next spring. Present employment is about I 50. According to the Buffalo Evening News, Cavage said, “The new facilities are long overdue,” explaining that sales had been growing at an False alarms still plaguing Wilkeson For the second year in a row, a series of false fire alarms is plaguing the Amherst Campus. The Wilkeson Quad located in the Kllicott Complex has been the scene of many false alarms. Many are turned in at alarm box 40, directly adjacent to the Other Place, located on the first floor of Wilkeson. As of October 31, 82 false fire alarms had been turned in on campus, compared to 1975 when 93 were turned in for the entire year, according to John Orela, of University Police. Many of the alarms were traced to the Student Club and the surrounding area last year, reported another member of the University Police, at a meeting held with University Housing personnel earlier this week at the Ellicott Complex. This year the popular place for drinking on campus has become the Other Place, and with it, the incidences of fire alarms have moved. University Police patrols of the Wilkeson area have increased, according to Grela, adding that there has been some success in lowering the amount of alarms. Several other proposals have been made to cut false alarms According to Clifford Wilsoq, associate director of University Housing, Housing is currently researching a recently marketed fire alarm system that sets off a local alarm immediately upon being pulled (for instance the alarms on a single floor). To sound an alarm in the building or quad the individual would have to hold the lever in place for thirty seconds. They are in the process of contacting the schools where this system has been employed to determine how effective it would be in helping to prevent false alarms. A proposal has been made to move Alarm box 40 of Wilkeson from its current place, steps away from the main entrance of the Oilier Place to behind the bar. Robert Hunt, director of Environmental Health and Safety, said that it is within the law to move the fire alarm, but it must be determined whether or not it will be possible to alter the electrical wiring to allow for the change. Presently, there are plans for putting a new cover on the call box where a glass seal must be broken to turn in an alarm, he added. A student at this University was sentenced to seven days in the Erie County Correctional facility on charges stemming from an October false alarm incident. He pleaded guilty to charges of disorderly conduct in Amherst Town Court A student from SUC Brockport visiting this campus was arrested for falsely reporting an incident (Section 240-55 of the penal law) on October 4, 1976 according to University police records. It is also believed that civil charges of assault were lodged against him by an employee of housing involved his in apprehension. Two other people were arrested at the Elficott Complex far violations of Section 240-55 this month. Unlike the Main Street Campus where the fire alarms are “hooked up” to the Buffalo Fire Department, thereby summoning fire fighting personnel each time an alarm is turned in, the Amherst Campus only has building alarms, according to Hunt..; Bids have already been accepted for the construction of a system to relay all fire alarm signals ■» Oral campus to a central communications center to be located in the tied Water Plant. x The Language Clubs are sponsoring an International Evening.

He has charged unfair competition His suit contends that the existence of the Record Coop is “unfair” since it is able to use free Norton Hall facilities which are paid for by the state. The particular Cavages store involved is located across Main Street, just off University Plaza. Cavage said Monday that sales for his entire operation were fifty percent higher than last year at this time, and that he expects sales to double over the next two year period. The opening next month of a new Town of Wheatfield store, Cavage said, would mark “the firm’s initial penetration of the Niagara Falls and Canadian markets.” Plans also are being contemplated for the first Cavages in the Rochester area. NFG reports record profits National Fuel Gas Distribution Corp. (NFG), the only supplier of home heating and cooking gas in the Western New York area, Monday reported record breaking profits of $9,384,000 or $3.61 per share for the year ending September 30. The previous high was in 1972, with just over 19 million. The profit rise was 17.3 percent higher than last year’s, and revenues rose 15 percent. The company has a rate increase request of 11.3 percent and it was approved by the Public Service Commission (PSC) a total of 29.3 million dollars. The PSC is the state body charged to regulate the actions of all utility companies in New York State. A staff analysis of the rate increase request recommended that only 2.5 percent now and one percent next year was justified. chairman Alfred Kahn is a former employee of ATT, need not follow the staff recommendations and has in the past often overruled its staff and granted NFG higher rate boosts than were deemed necessary by the PSC examiners. The NFG rate request has been the target of general protest in the Buffalo area, and even sparked an attempt at a bill withholding ‘action’ last spring. Terminated during the summer, the action and its accompanying publicity had reportedly tripled and quadrupled complaints to the Buffalo PSC. In addition to regulating rates, the PSC is responsible for examining all complaints against utilities. A bill may be legally left unpaid if complaint is under consideration by the board, but must be paid if the Commission so determines Significant bill reductions are often made however, they totaled more than 1.5 million last year. — a - Higher grants The PSC five-man appointed board, whose Academy Award Winner Best Documentary Feature UNIVERSITY OF PARIS ft -SORBONNE SUNY/NEW PALTZ PROGRAM , 7th YEAR Undergraduates in philosophy and related majors earn 30 32 credits in regular Sorbonne (Paris IV) courses.

The reporter, 25-year-old Mark Hosenball, has lived in England for aboyt six years and has worked for the tabloid Evening Standard since July. The Home Office said that he was being asked to leave Britain within 14 days under terms of a five-year-old immigration act. A spokesman for the Office said that Hosenball had obtained information that was harmful to the security of Britain. But he did not say what information had been obtained or whether it had been published. At a news conference, Hosenball speculated that articles he had written for his previous employer, Time Out magazine, an entertainment guide with an anti-Establishment news section, could have provoked his deportation. He wrote reports for Time Out about a defense communication center, the troubles in Northern Ireland and the Cental Intelligence Agency. In one article about the CIA, he listed names purported to be of agents operating in Britain. No U.S. pressure Hosenball’s reports on the intelligence agency, however, appeared more than a year ago, and he said that in the period since then he had never been approached by Government officials. A United States Embassy spokesman said that he knew of no United States pressure on Britain to remove him. His editor at the Standard, Charles Wintour, called Hosenball “a most diligent, prolific and intelligent reporter” and said that he had hired him over 100 other applicants. Wintour continued that the newspaper would support an appeal by the Americati and that several members of Parliament would also. “There was no detailed reason given for this action,” he said, “and 1 therefore regard it as a miscarriage of justice.” British and American officials in London could recall no precedent for such an action against a foreign-born journalist.

The Spectrum . Friday, 19 November 1976 �Ray of hope foi* students having landlord problems by Ken Stem Special to The Spectrum attachment to your worldly possessions. One other problem area for tenants students especially is the gloomy region of security deposits. The biggest racket in town isn’t numbers running or interstate car theft, but rather the Great American Security Deposit Swindle. In most cases, when an apartment is rented the tenant is required to place a security deposit with the landlord which is supposedly designed to cover any damage caused by the renter during the period of tenancy. The rules say this deposit will be refunded when the tenant moves on. But that’s not what always happens, even if the tenant leaves the place spotless. In reality, getting your money back is about as easy as saying “no” to an insurance salesman. Landlords realize that most people, not to mention busy, transient students, won’t take legal action even if they’re “staffed” on their hard-earned cash. The landlord’s modus operand! is to refund the money only after the tenant has initiated a lawsuit and seems determined to follow it through, which is one reason why legal action is so effective in this area. So, if your landlord is doing the security deposit shuffle, sashay down to your local small claims court and file an action. Most people don’t realize how simple a procedure this is; the .forms require little more than a working knowledge of English lawyers are not even allowed.! - - — on time, we have evicted you and have taken custody of your possessions.” Strange but true. It happens everyday in countless cities even though most states have banned the practice, whose legal moniker is “forcible entry and detainer.” It may be a throwback to the days of powdered wigs and “six gun justice,” but landlord hassles are still as common these days as acne, , especially in student communities where the transient population causes a high rental turnover. But relief from unscupulous landlords is not hard to come by, if students would always keep in mind a few simple principles. The first commandment of landlord-tenant relations is, “Thou shalt always carefully read thy lease, especially the fine print.” Landlords will often try and slip in outrageous responsibilities or desclaimers including provisions which allow a landlord to take all your possessions if your rent is just five days late. Securing deposits If, before signing your lease, you discover any such outlandish clauses, make sure they’re crossed out and then signed by the landlord, unless you feel no particular — Tenant unions But before you make like Melvin Belli, be sure to check the local law regarding what is called “to notice” requirements which usually only involve sending the landlord an official letter demanding the return of your money. These problems highlight the fact that tenants have historically been abused due to inadequate legal safeguards and the lack of strong tenant organizations. Tenant unions have not proliferated mainly because of the dogged attempts'of landlords to neutralize them. The latest tactic for example, is to use expensive lawsuits based on antiquated laws to bludgeon tenant unions into submission. This maneuver is currently being waged by powerful landlords against Boston’s city-wide Tenants First Coalition (TFC). Max Kargman, one of Boston’s largest landlords whose fiefdom includes many Election ’76 Happy Holidays! Nobody wins by a majority by Russ Smith Special to The Spectrum It wasn’t much of an election. True, there was the usual backslapping and handjiving with Democracy, the champagne splashes and victory statements marvelling at how good and downright American the campaign had been. And in hotels from coast to coast on November 2, cut-rate local politicians and their ilk were reveling in that sustained election buzz they cop once a year. But for the rest of America, it just wasn’t much of an election. Not that the moguls who juggle the fates of the yearly contests the media, government didn’t try their damndest and American tradition to enthuse the citizenry about the dogfight for the presidency. The stifling amounts of campaign reportage spit out daily by the media, coupled with the canned series of debates staged by the League of Women Voters, made Carter and Ford easily the most publicly exposed candidates in American (CPS) — — — political history. More media representatives junketed their way to the Democratic and Republican conventions than did delegates of the political parties. However, because Carter and Ford avoided tangling with substantive issues, concentrating on each other’s most recent gaffe, the race never got past the joking stage. People simply weren’t interested. Conceding to nobody “Walter Cronkite’s own figures show that Nobody took the election with a large plurality, (47 percent). 1 concede to Nobody,” said Peter Camejo, students, has slapped a multi-million dollar lawsuit against TFC based on an ancient civil conspiracy law which most people felt had died a natural death decades ago. The idea from the landlord’s point of view is to divert the organization’s energy from tenant organizing to defending against the lawsuit. Many tenant unions across the country have focused their attentions, and in some cases money, on the Kargman lawsuit, the result of which will have a monumental impact on tenant organizing for many apartment hunters in the future.

Despite the largest number of citizens ever to vote in an election, 80 million, the percentage of eligible voters who cast their ballots was only 53.3%, the lowest percentage since the Dewey-Truman election in 1948, according to the New York Times. In the other major democracies of (across from Capri Art Theatre) WE SPECIALIZE IN - wwwwwwwwwwwwww Roast Beef on Week! > the Western world, such as Canada, France and Great Britain, turnouts run about 75 or 80 percent.

The media and campaign bigwigs were exuberant over the heavy ballotting, gloating that the American people were not as apathetic as portrayed and were truly concerned with the election results. “Maybe turning out was a way for the public to get back at the pollsters,” ventured Gray Davis, an aide to California’s Jerry Brown. By playing up the unexpected showing, dismal as it was, the moguls employed a trick that .Jimmy Carter taught them last winter, while campaigning in Iowa and New Hampshire as a political unknown.

According to firefighters at the scene, windy conditions and the combustability of the structures made the fire very difficult to bring under control. Many of the houses on the East Side of Buffalo are more than 50 years old, and have been a source of concern to fire officials for some time. Residents of the area have expressed fear of an unconlrolable fire in the past. Some of the structures in the immediate vicinity of Tuesday’s blaze have burned before.

In mid-summer, although Buszka wasn’t batting as well as he would have liked, (only .225), the coach of the Batavia team remarked that he was satisfied with Buszka’s play. Buszka who stole seventeen bases in as many attempts was also pleased with his performance. “1 think I had a good season overall, even though I didn’t hit the ball,” Buszka said. “I played good defense, and since our coach isolated on base stealing, I improved well there.” Buszka began the season as an outfielder, but was switched to first base where he feels he is most effective. He played almost a full schedule, missing only three games all year. Kidd played in Elmira of the New York-Penn League, until he was stopped by an injury. “I was there for about three weeks and felt I was picking up my game,” Kidd explained. “One day, while throwing someone out from right field, I pulled a tendon. I haven’t been able to throw a ball without feeling pain since.” Three pitches Kidd’s average was hovering around .250 when his accident occurred. “I had two operations in my left arm before this,” said the right-handed Kidd. “Now the other arm.” He is currently seeing Buffalo Bills Physician Joseph Godfrey.

Simpson and R. Gilbert defending that refusal. Both writers criticize the failure of Dr. Siggelkow to discuss the relative merits of our military establishment in his letter, but in the process, they both skip lightly over the main issue, which, as Dr. Siggelkow correctly pointed out, is censorship. R. Gilbert has decided for us that certain viewpoints (i.e., racist and military) should be denied a public forum because of abhorrent occurrences he says these views have led to in the past. In other words, R. Gilbert will decide for all of us in the University community which views are “right” and which are “wrong” and allow us to hear only the “right” ones. This particular theory is not very original however. Governments in many countries use censorship to prevent bad results such as revolutions and the theory has made its most recent appearance in the school board cases in which parents and board members determined which books their children would read in order to shelter them from erroneous viewpoints and make certain that only the correct “facts” and views were propounded. Now it may appear ludicrous to equate the elimination of racism with improper government media regulation or the setting of mandatory curriculum guidelines but that is not what I am doing. On the contrary, I am merely trying to point out the similarity of theory that seeks to justify the repression of opposing viewpoints in each case. I assure you that incumbent governments and conservative school boards are just as confident of the correctness of their political or moral positions as Misters Gilbert and Simpson are of theirs. In each case the ends the elimination of a perceived evil are laudible, but I must take issue with the means used to effectuate these ends. The problem lies in the question of perception. We all “know” what is “right” and “wrong” but have we always “known” these things or have our ideas on the correctness of particular issues changed somewhat as we have matured intellectually. I daresay that most of us have changed our minds on some issues since we have been in college and we may yet change our minds again on these and other issues. And it seems to me that herein lie the keys to'this discussion not the objective rightness or wrongness of the military and not what the military has done in the past or might do in the future, but rather our — <r o © 4 <9 © © © r x(Jews, ah thc mez of omous TOUT frmk) eHpnuess uves.

The university has a responsibility not only to teach the various analytical methods, but also to provide the information on all sides of an issue which is required for informed decision making. I reject racism today not because someone else told me if it was wrong or deprived me of information, but rather because I was able to take my acquired skills and see for myself the logical fallacies of the pro-racist argument. Thus any information pro-racists, such as the American Nazi Party, have paid to print in fact has hurt their cause by providing me with the necessary “facts” to see the “wrong” in their proposals. logic holds true for military The same advertisements. They are not long articles filled with pro-military propaganda, but simply a notice to the individual student that employment opportunities which he may not yet have considered, exist in today’s tight job market. As such, they are merely an invitation to obtain more information. Certainly there are enough countervailing anti-military influences on this campus, and especially in the campus media, to provide us with enough information to judge the validity of the claims of the military. In addition, we should consider the purpose and effect of the ads. The purpose is basically to get college students to join the armed services. Since most enlistees would begin duty after graduation most of those joining would be entering as an officer. Thus, the result of the ads might be to have liberally-educated college graduates, with full knowledge of the history and present status of the military, entering the service on at least"a middle decision-making level with the potential to rise to a of higher authority. What possible position complaint can those who are anti-military haVe about these possibilities? Assuming the desirability of change in the military these officers educated at non-military institutions, are clearly in a good position to initiate, or at least aid, that change. So, in conclusion, I request that The Spectrum Editorial Board reconsider its decision to bar these ads. Let each student make up his own mind on the basis of all available information, not just those “facts” that the individual staff members or Mr. Simpson or Mr. Gilbert think they should have. — Bill Shields For Military ads II To the Editor. & o & IF W) IMW A GROSS UAf(OUAL PROPVCZMOOT AH M li)sms of <scvr wm? \ IF I would like to take this opportunity to respond to Walter Simpson’s and R. Gilbert’s responses to Richard Siggelkow’s letter protesting The Spectrum's exclusion of military ads. I think I am qualified to make this statement, as I am a former member of the Marine Corps program which specifically has had its ads excluded, and am a U.B. student. The main weakness of Simpson’s and Gilbert’s as well as The Spectrum's argument is that they do not realize that the Marine Corps is just a tool, an instrumentality, for the application of our foreign policy where force is necessary.

If an objection is to be raised, it should be against the brain that decides to strike the nail, not against the hammer itself. The only countering argument to this is to say that using any violence anywhere in the world to effectuate our foreign policy is illegal and immoral. However, thinking like this is, in its own way, as one-sided and shallow as the other extreme of Strangelovian illogic, and potentially as dangerous. The lessons of history and the fact that we are, and always were, living in an uncivilized world should at least sustain the fact that force may at one point in the future possibly be necessary to achieve some objective which is in the best interests of preserving some general notions of freedom and justice. To deny this is mainly to fall back on simplistic, flower child-esque logic, haunting visions of the draft and students’ natural aversions to the military in the rejects the idea that the situation should be created where this kind of tragedy might be allowed to occur (e.g. military training). However, if this line of thought is followed to its logical conclusion, no military training leads to no military, and in light of the realities of the present world, we cannot afford that luxury. If I have not as yet addressed myself specifically to R. Gilbert’s letter, it is because it is so filled with faulty logic and nonsequiturs that it is a worthless argument. Vague notions of Nazis and imperialist wars were employed to argue the extreme, but never successfully related to the stated problem of whether or not to allow military advertisement. At one point, Gilbert stated, “In addition, it must be remembered that other factors entered into The Spectrum's decision: that students have traditionally opposed U.S. military activities; that there exist many other student periodical outlets for the military to use; that income from military advertising is very small, and would not significantly increase student subsidies to the paper.” In this preceding statement, the first point is without proof and without explanation of how it relates to this present UB student body, the second point avoids the issue completely, and the third and fourth points are opportunistic and specifically avoid the question of what is right in favor of what will be more economically profitable. I think that in executing an exclusionary policy which The Spectrum has against military advertising which can even remotely be argued as being contrary to the First Amendment freedom of speech (if not in fact, then in spirit), that person must take on a heavy burden of proving and rationalizing why this was done. The Spectrum has wake of Vietnam. avoided the important questions and mishandled a It is a fact that the deaths of Lynn McClure and freedom which it too easily takes for granted. For, if Thomas Fitzgerald were shocking, tragic and highly The Spectrum violating the First Amendment is unnecessary. However, in any institutional situation freedom for one single student or even one single you are inevitably going to have to rely on the person who by chance picks up the paper, then it is judgement of different individuals. In many cases violating everyone’s First Amendment freedom. that judgement will be hasty and stupid. Hopefully, not too much damage will result. Mr. Simpson — — Perry Silver Page eight. The Spectrum Friday, 19 November 1976 . �by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor It's a rare and uplifting thing to see a production of an acknowledged "great" play that doesn't attempt to coast by merely on the play's greatness, but which sees that quality is something that must be reproven and improved upon constantly. The Studio Arena Theatre’s current production of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman is such an event: it's simply the best production I've ever seen at the and one of the finest I've ever seen anywhere. The overshadowing presence of Willy Loman, who can lay as valid a claim any to being the greatest creation of any American playwright, almost obscures the totality of Miller's achievement, not the least feature of which is that Salesman is much more than Willy, prodigious though that might be. Somehow, Miller was vouchsafed a visionary glimpse into the weaknesses and the failures of all of us, into our self-concealed desire to turn aside from the hard truth of our own failings for the convenient and the illusory. No other play has ever laid so bare the shackles of the American Dream, or shown such sympathy and love for those trapped in them. Chamber Drama Salesman then is really an ensemble show or it should be. It could be, and often has been, turned into a star vehicle, a pitfall which director Warren Enters and his cast have avoided. Enters has previously shown a special gift for dealing with life on an intimate level; he displayed in an earlier SAT production of Miller's The Price much of the insight he reveals more strongly here. The cast works together, with a unity of purpose and a high level of — expertise. The play itself provides a simple yardstick for taking the measure of anyone playing Willy Loman. When Willy's wife Linda tells their sons that "In his way, he's a great man," we can see whether Willy has displayed that greatness. It's a common greatness,, one which we all share some of, as we do his equally great folly; as that common greatness binds us to Willy, that common folly breaks our hearts. When Pat Hingle, as Willy, shuffles his massive form onto the stage, he drags in a hollow shell "tired to the death," existing on a few small sparks of will, barely visible among the embers of his burnt-out life. He shows us an everyday guy who doesn't want an exorbitant amount out of life, but has tried to get it by feeding himself with his own lies and delusions; he's eating himself alive. He shows ua an ordinary "working stiff" and makes us see that a "stiff" is a corpse. — — An original classic Hingle's Loman isn't a particularly novel one: it shares some space with the great Lomans of Lee J. Cobb and Frederic March, in television and film respectively. But what does make Hingle's work so memorable is that he's refused to make any assumptions about a role that would be easy to "standardize." His Willy is completely thought out, scrupulously honest, and painfully human; not a starring performance, but the kind that makes an actor a star. He is literally a knockout: his power is literally stunning. Hardly less exemplary is Joan Lorring's Linda, who combines a consuming love for Willy, a growing despair at her helplessness to alter his fate, and blistering rage at her self-centered sons in a display of remarkable range. Of all the Lomans, only the restive, rootless Biff is able to survive his encounter with the truth, and Richard Greene plays out that struggle most effectively. As his brother Happy, Marcus Smythe is occasionally somewhat overbearing, but stilt as soulless as his name, glossing over every emotion with a shallow smile. The rest of the cast is perfectly fitted, especially Ralph Farnsworth as the strutting capitalist cock. Uncle Ben; Pat McNamara as Willy's only friend; and Robert Tennenhouse, in a clever, enjoyable bit as a waiter. SAT's Death of a Salesman doesn't rely on any indulgent pyrotechnics of stagecraft, story, or acting every genture and inflection is there out of necessity. Yet it's a resounding success; a magnificent play, superbly acted and directed, that no one within reach of the Studio Arena should let themselves miss.

Convention Center Staff The name of last Monday's Office of Cultural Affairs presentation at the Studio Arena Theater evoked, for me anyway, hearts and flowers and sugarcakes. Perhaps this is why there was at best a two-thirds house and almost no U/B students present for what proved to be a marvelous, if somewhat fragmented, evening with the 34-year-old marriage of Hume Cronyn g|id Jessica Tandy.

Last year's stunningly-.bad The Hollow Crown, a revue by members of the famous Royal Shakespeare Company, could not convey its masterful performers to where anyone had a mind to go. The Many Faces or Love was more than adequate, mainly becuase nearly all of the material chimed felicitously with the two actors involved. It is not too much to say that Tandy was remarkably like Katherine Hepburn; without her sense of the pause, perhaps, nor with Hepburn's absolute ear for pace and timing, but with an emotional range approaching hers and a voice less croaky, and as full and nearly as effective. Her passionate monologue from writing by Dylan Thomas's bereaved widow was one of the evening's highpoints. cranky and quick and vivid; He Hume Cronyn is like his niame brought these qualities directly to Shakespeare's Richard 111 to provide a rich interpretation in an all-too brief soliloquy.

He was less Satanic or kingly, and more a bureaucratic Machiavelli driven not by ambition but by sheer spite, and a lack of imagination: Richard III as Underground Man. I for one regret not having seen him in the full production. — —Wechsler of music with hooks that grab you by the collar, make you happily sing along and shake that posterior a bit. The Doobies are the Purveyors of Goodtime Music and nothing more than that. Their albums are loaded with entertainment, but don't make any major breakthroughs in conquering forces of musical space and time. So, the transition to a live form that is also entertaining isn’t too hard, and they have a helluva time doing it. thought to myself, minutes before the Doobies blew out onto the stage, "What could they open up with? Geez, they could open with anything and God knows what'll happen!" Well, it was "China Grove" that broke the whole anticipatory mood open and naturally, the crowd went into uproar. I check out the Doobie Brothers Roster: Co-leader Pat Simmons was leaping like a madman, straining to see the cobwebs on the Convention Hall ceiling as he played his guitar solos ("Oh, God, these strings hurt!''); Jeff "Skunk" 1 Baxter and Mike McDonald (both expatriates of Steely Dan) Were there the former taking his lead solos sitting dow/n (maybe he had a rip in his pants), the latter doing the keyboard work and a lot of lead vocals. Two drummers were on hand, John Hartmann and Keith Knudsen, both necessary for the heavy percussion the Doobies require; Tiran Porter, the majestic bass player, was there, getting rather plallic with his instrument. — Behind the Doobies were the infamous Memphis Horns, adding the "big band sound" to the music. The missing member? Tom Johnston, the other co-leader/guitarist. I read somewhere a few years ago that he doesn't tour with the band. After noticing that he contributed only one song to the last album, Takin' It To The Streets, I guess h.is placement as a Doobie is fading. (They should dump McDonald, at least, for botching up that last one.) Excitement? You bet. From a gigantic repertroire, these boys like to play five or six songs in a row, one right after the other. There was practically no onstage talking from them, so I guess they're all a bunch of leapin' lunatics. But I gotta say that this constant bombardment of music was never a letdown and . . Friday, 19 November 1976 Even the lighting was as stimulating as the frenzy onstage. From above them, the Doobies were pierced by flashing shots of light, more of a "lightning show." The effects hit a strange peak during the second set of songs when Tiran Porter sang his composition "For Someone Special." It peacefully mixed into the raging insttrumental climax that concluded "I Cheat the Hangman." While this haunting melody was building, a mirrored ball atop the stage spun slowly as all the spotlights hit it at once. The "stars" whirled around the wall and the audience as the effect did its trick. We were even treated to some guy smacking a gong with a firestick and a couple of smoke bombs. Very spaced out, to say the least. The Memphis Horns contributed something from their own RCA album, an instrumental piece called "Get Up and Dance" (Ha!). People d/c/getup then, and used the number as their intermission. Oh well, it sounded like a Brecker Brothers reject A most pleasing innovation the Doobies had in their albums was more prominent use of a jazz motif. The Memphis Horns were the key here, and there was an abundance of solos given to them. In the horn section, Andrew Love on sax and Wayne Jackson on trumpet played long, invigorating improvisations. Songs like "Eyes of Silver," "Wheels of Fortune," and "Black Water" (complete with a genuine Dixieland break) were all showcases of the individual hornplayers' talents. The entire extravaganza made for one helluva show, but nothing could overcome the tragedy of the "acoustical nightmare" itself, the Niagara Falls Convention Center. The Doobies played loud, too loud, and with the cavernous, echo-laden characteristics of the building structure, I had a lot of difficulty hearing the singing. I pondered as the Doobies opened up their show; "I recognize those chords 'China Grove?' is he saying, 'The Sun rises up on a sleepy little town, down around San Antone?' I was cautious when singing out loud, for fear of having guessed the wrong song (I'm a reserve of paranoia, you see.) A real shame, to say the least. The highlight of the program was a 3-song spectacular, combining "Jesus is Just Alright," "Rockin' Down the Highway," and "Long Train Runnin'." The latter tune was electrifying enough that sedatives should have been passed out to the audience afterwards. It contained a staccato sax solo, a percussion break and a slam-barn trade-off between "Skunk" (who decided to get off his arse this time) and trumpet player Jackson. . The Doobies never leave the stage without scaring the pants off the people. As the first of a 2-song encore, they did "Without You" from The Captain and Me. Pat Simmons led the musical onslaught, complete with a devastating guitar attack that gradually quieted down as the lights flickered out. BAM! Two giant explosive fireworks went off onstage, accompanied by a few smoke bombs as the guitars and drums pounded out the mighty final bars.

Chicago at the Aud —Zlfter Acrophobia and poor sound for audience in the Oranges by Ted Vanderlaan Spectrum Music Staff It is unfortunate .no, it is obscene that any type of musical performance is held in the home of the Sabres and the Braves, that monster of a building all the way down Main, an acoustical nightmare affectionately referred to as the Aud. It is and always will be a sports arena, useless for anything .. but games, ice follies, and boat shows. Unfortunately, 1t is the only indoor facility in the Buffalo area which can accommodate the throngs which are attracted by top bands and performers. By anyone's standards, Chicago is a top band, having released nine top-selling aalbums (and one greatest hits package, of course) in seven years, and having churned out a score of singles. Few seats were empty during their Friday night performance: they carried the concert on their own, with no guest stars, special guest starts, or feature guest stars, and they played to a receptive crowd for the better part of two-and-a-half hours. The cat walk One has not experienced the grandeur of the Aud until one has endured a concert while sitting in the attic, the catwalks which, on the tickets, are called the Orange Section. After trekking up countless flights of stairs, the first impulse one has when reaching this section is to grab hold of something—anything—to keep from falling. This section puts the spectator about five stories above the stage, giving one a Goodyear-blimpview of the band and the lucky bastards in the front row seats. The acoustical problems are intensified at this height, especially behind the stage (they do seat people there), because the music echoes several times before reaching the listener. Familiar songs are recognizable at best, but band members' comments between songs are totally unintelligible. The attic is, however, a strategic location from which to hurl paper airplanes, frisbees, and rolls of toilet paper, without which any concert would be lacking. Chicago began with the single "Beginnings," a song better-suited to end their performance, with lyrics such as, "It's only the beginning, only just the start." You know, today is the first day of the rest of your life, and all that. After another quick single, "Old Days” from VIII, the band moved into a medley from their second album, which included "Make Me Smile" and "Colour My World." The latter drew the first hysterical, deafening frenzy from the stands; there would soon be more. This ended a very short first the band's black sheep, the outcast, wearing a Rangers Jersey which clashed with the leisure suits worn by the others. Bassist Cetera, the Band's most versatile singer, is also the band's glitter boy, strutting his stuff on stage in a light green sequined outfit, appearing to be just a bit too much in love with himself. Regardless of personalities, the band must be tight, for all seven original members are still together, the only change in nine albums being the addition'of a percussionist on the last three (VII, VIII, & X), as well as on the road. The second and final set was the backbone of the show. I was disappointed with the renditions of two songs probably unknown to most of the audience; "A Hit By Varese" and "Mongonucleosis" were transformed into jam sessions. I had thought that Chicago was above drum solos, that they were too professional to revert to such rowdy behavior, such predictable tactics. However, the fans seemed to like it (two drum solos), at least enough to respond to it. I could say that people just do not know what they like, but then again I may now know myself. The applause for the unfamiliar numbers was modest compared to the blood- curdling hysteria emitted when the crowd recognized their top-40 AM favorites; "If You Leave Me Now," "Saturday in the Park," "I've Been Searching So Long," and "25 or 6 to 40". 'Here they come!’ Suddenly, after that last hit, the music stopped. It was as if Chicago had only touched on the material I had hoped they would play. The band was walking off the stage, waving to the audience. The fans were clapping, stomping, whistling, yelling; they were begging for an encore they knew was certain to come. A thousand matches and lighters were lit. I thought, "God, haven't I seen all this before?" By jumping up and down the people actually made the building (at least where I was sitting) shake. Without warning, the cheering multiplied, but no one appeared on stage. A few people had probably screamed, "Here they come!" and by a chain reaction the whole audience believed it. The blind leading the blind. Finally (five minutes later) the band reappeared; the crowd seemed surprised, or at least happy. Having prepared myself for one of their biggest singles to cap the night, I almost fell out of my chair when they encored with one of the Beatles biggest singles. I could not believe that Chicago would consciously aggravate the ridiculous Beatles hype, already blown out of proportion this past summer. set. As they sang "Got to Get You Into My Life" I thought, "I got to get out of this place." The band Faceless band Chicago has been called a faceless band, and this followed with "Feeling Stronger Every Day," then anonymity was not dispelled in their live wwalked off the stage, and the house lights came on.

Prodigal Sun �'Old Times' Coffeehouse Difficult disarray for truths by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor phrases gather more meaning than most five-minute speeches: "You Harold Pinter's Old Times is an irritating play irritating like the grain of dust around which an oyster produces a pearl. It is an unyielding, demanding work: it fails to yield to your demands, and forces you instead to yield to its, if you can. And without meaning to condemn by saying it, those demands are difficult to The UB Theatre meet.

Kate to Deeley: "You had no friends" how much does this tell of her resentment, or Deeley's fear of Anna's arrival? How clearly can the past be remembered? The three use their memories they wish to recollect to attack and defend. It them does, ultimately, lead to a metaphyical question of the nature of the past and how memory affects your own reality. — — — — — media-managed life, when Deeley manages to recall most of his own past in terms of his seeing the film "Odd Man Out," and in a sly argument between Deeley and Anna consisting entirely of song lyrics. — Bare necessity This is without question a crushingly difficult play to sucessfully, and everyone concerned with this production has basically delivered what was necessary. But Ward Williamson's direction, and the performances of two of the three principals, fade in and out of effectiveness like a distant radio broadcast. Old Times has to be approached, above all, with clarity of intention every moment in it is fiercely purposeful, and everyone involved has to be aware of the purpose of each moment. That's what makes the play difficult, and the awareness of that purpose is at some times transparently clear, at others befogged and uncertain. The most effective member of the cast is Vicki Harris; of the three players, she's the most surely attuned to the tidelike feel of the play, its between human needs and the inhuman ways they must on occasion be satisfied. When I think of Kneland Stickles' Deeley, I'm reminded of Tom in Williams' The Glass Menagerie a poet trapped in a warehouse." Deeley is the reverse, a stock clerk trapped in a poem, a matter-of fact pedant who often fails even to turn his head as subtleties whiz past him. At some moments. Stickles' — ; straightforward approach touches straight to the bone; his range of approach, though, is really too narrow, with the result that he gives alternating impressions of dead-on instinct and stiff insensitivity. Technique and well-controlled mannerisms are important to a perforamnce, but Irene Burns —Fliss and meticulous scrutiny and with both mind and heart working at full capacity. If you want to know what Old Times is "about," let me first refer you to the symbol used by its publicity a word balloon saying simply, "Pause." The play unwinds largely in short, often brusque phrases with cold, steely, civilized edges. If that makes the play sound like a duel, and the dialogue, like weapons it is, and they are, much of the time. The occasion is supposedly social: a visit by Anna (Irene Burna Normandale) to her former roommate Kate (Vicki Harris), and Kate’s husband Deeley (Kneland Stickles) at their English home. Before her arrival, Deeley and Kate converse in blank phrases, bounded by silences. Words and silence swing back and forth like a pendulum, or the ticking of a clock the first sound heard in the play, in fact. They speak, and it merely marks the seconds. — — — — Fullness of time A pattern begins to emerge in fragments, several patterns. The Prodigal Sun But abstraction isn't Pinter's goal. What his characters are grappling over is love; his paradox is that they're taking a shallow, petty path to the profoundest of emotions a heartless route to — the human heart. If Pinter has covered his play's purpose with such a hard shell, it's because its counterpart in life is equally hard-shelled, if not more so. Old Times is scarcely more difficult to arrive at the truth of than any actual human interaction; the task is hard, but really less so than it seems at first. What it revealed was that it seems difficult because we so seldom try to discern the truth in others. By being so spare, it strips the camouflage away from the many meetings which fill up our lives. Like any perceptive artist, Pinter knows what he wishes to single out to display. It's the nature of its basic what he chooses that makes it a foreignness strange sight. But there's much to be seen: Pinter throws light on the small, absurd redundancies of living (Deeley to Anna in his bedroom: "We sleep here. These are beds.") He also nods to the — Normandale lets us see only the techniques; we're watching an actress, not a character, when we her. The life of Anna is missing; she's so self-conscious that the question of Anna being a shallow person, and not a shallow piece of work, never raises itself. Sitting in front of me at the performance I attended were two see couples — upper-middle-class by their dress, very intelligent by the snatches of their conversation I overheard. They were very similar to Kate, Anna, and Deeley, and at least one of them left saying, "That was so true it’s almost frightening." The mirror was being shone in their direction, and the light that it reflected, though distorted, was still there to be seen Old Times continues tonight through Sunday in the Harriman Theatre Studio; performances begin at 8 p.m., and tickets are available at the Norton Ticket Office and at the door. 'Concert we've all been waiting for' The UUAB Coffeehouse is calling jt "The concert we've all been waiting for," and they're right. The most exciting event on the Coffeehouse's fall schedule takes place tonight at 8:30 in the Katherine Cornell Theatre in the Amherst Campus' Ellicott Complex, when Gorden Bok, Ed Trickett, and Ann Mayo Muir combine their talents for what promises to be a superb concert. Gordon Bok is a familiar face to Coffeehouse fans; anyone who's seen him in his previous sold-out Buffalo appearances, or heard his Folk-Legacy Record albums. Will remember this sailing man from Camden, Maine. As the original first mate of Pete Seeger's Hudson River sloop Clearwater as a great singer and guitarist with a style all his own; as a performer of traditional songs, and one of our best writers of traditional-style music as all of these, Gordon is remembered and respected. Like Gordon, Ed Trickett's trade is outside of music; he's a psychologist who's still found time to develop into a pleasing singer and guitarist, and an expert hammered dulcimer player; to play at a multitude of concerts and festivals, including one in Buffalo last spring; and to record his own fine, Folk-Legacy album, The telling Takes Me Home. Ed's material ranges through the best of the traditional and modern ; repertoire. Clear as a bell Less well-known as a soloist, but no less talented, is Ann Mayo Muir, beautiful, whose crystal-clear voice and way for finding the heart of a song delighted listeners of the two Folk-Legacy albums on which she and Bok collaborated. She accompanies herself on a small, bell-shaped 12-string, designed especially for her. Gorden, Ed, and. Ann have played together privately for years, but only last 'year did they make an album with all three together Turning Toward the Morning, also on Folk-Legacy. The overwhelming response to that record eventually led to a sold-out tour by the trio, followed by a resumption of their solo careers.

Led Zepplin II came out around Christmas 1969, the single "Whole Lotta Love/Living Loving Maid" riding the wings of Janis Joplin's recent popularization of the screeched-out vocal and a whole lotta hype about Jimmy Page being the best guitarist in the world (check out Andres Segovia, kids.) Amidst the debris of a number of stolen and often abused riffs and ideas, Pagey, Planter, Bonzo and Joneso were pounding out what was to become a stylistic basis for much of the popular "music" of cock rock, the late sixties and early seventies music to get off on, snort some Drano, give the old lady "every inch of your love," play the album again and again until whatever's left of your mind wants nothing better than to kick baby carriages off cliffs. "Yeah, I heard this before, some of these lyrics, it's, like they're stolen from some old blues song or something, only they've credited to Page and Plant, and, like wow, Moby Dick" a drum solo, are you sure these guys don't get their ideas from the Iron Butterfly? What the fuck is this, anyway, using acoustic guitars on a rock album, and where did they get all this dumb nonsense about "the darkest depths of Mordor" and "Gollum the veil one?" Like, these hey wait a guys are really obsessed with sex minute, so am I. Too bad there's nothin' about drugs. I'd really like to know what these guys are on But no one was destined to find out that or anything else about the group for a long while, as the Zep was alienation and feigned exlusivity set in mad at the press for giving their albums bad notices, and nobody was talking, except for the droves of groupies with their hair-raising tales of bondage, child molestation and mud sharks. Led Zeppelin was being ignored as just another depraved English amp-eater the critics had already had Cream and the Hendrix Experience up their collective as?, and both were more instrumentally accomplished anyway, and the power trio idea was even then beginning to sound a trifle stale (good lord, if we only knew then about ZZ Top, Robin Trower or Ted Nugent then...) The Beatles were already dead, and there was just no room for Zeppelin; the Stones had just then begun to ease into the "Wulled's graytust Raukunrowl bahnd'' slot, the conniving Glimmer Twins edging out the more creative likes of Townsend/Daltrey or Ray Davies by virtue of consistently crusty concerts, makeup and good press. Led Zeppelin III, released in the fall of 1970, came as quite a surprise to a great number of the cuftish fans of the group (and by this time, these numbered in the millions.) Their most experimental album up to that time. III featured, besides the obligatory hard rock and blues number, an entire side of acoustic material, showcasing Plant's often expressive vocals and lyrics, and Page's English folk influences -*■ each cut on Zep III, side two, utilized a different open guitar tuning. Needless to say, everybody hated it (the production work was pretty bad) and despite what willprobably stand as some of the band's best compositions ("Tangerine," "That's the Way," "Friends"), the album is regarded by many as their worst. Then came Led Zeppelin IV. probably the high point of the band's career “Stairway to Heaven" was probably the longest song to become an AM hit up to that date, and hit it was, quite deservedly so. The entire creative spirit of the band had worked, fusing acoustic and electric the song is a study in dynamics, from soft beginning to ass-kicking ending, Page's multiple guitars, and a producer's dream Jones' piano, synthesizer and bass blending into a lush, cohesive whole so well that they give the impression of having all been played concurrently, by the same set of hands.

With love theme . • • —continued from page 10 — evening: a scene from Albee's A Delicate Balance and a fully realized cutting from Jan de Hertog's The Four Posters about a long-married couple thrashing through the transition between the moving out of their last child and the beginning of a new life alone together. Unfortunately, Cronyn and Tandy could have stood a poetry advisor (production was supervised by Robert Walter), as the verse was either clunky or so mellifulous to the ear as to be emptied of sense after the hard imagery and encounter of the drama. The dramatic selections, on the other hand, were strong and convincing, based as they surely were on the two actors' lifetimes in the theater and a superior understanding of their own capabilities. A little directorial work was in order in a few places: Tandy's reedy musical voice could nearly always carry the day, even when an over-polished and artificial gesture ("0 my heart!" grab heart; "if I might pluch air, etc.) threatened the moment's sincerity: Cronyn's quirkiness could sometimes border on spasm, and his lapses in accent or loss of control of tone in the longer speeches could have stood some — watching. White-collar cynicism Even more specifically, the evening was weakest when it no longer trusted its straight-ahead dramatic instinct and peddled a popularized middle-brow light-hearted cynicism about love and marriage: the tired old American "Battle of the Sexes," the Dagwood and Blondie innuendoes, the American Way of covering real and perhaps painful emotions between partners. Fortunately, Cronyn and Tandy had the good sense not to indulge often in the easy theme of the equitable acceptance of. a spouse's folly or idiocy. Theme, in fact, was tough to locate: love meant just about anything it could mean. A sharper concept might have been interesting, but the revue formal served its purpose as a vehicle for the great gifts of the two stars. Thirty-four years of married life in the theater (and out) don't automatically make a Lunt-Fontaine. But for Hume, Cronyn and Tandy, thirty-four years has apparently brought them face to face with the many faces of love, and while they didn't seem to be advocating any one of them as "truer" than another, this open-endedness was the truth of the evening: love penetrates every human action.

Houses saw the beginning of a real fascination with keyboards on the part of bassist Jones, increased knowledge of harmonic structure on the part of Page, and the end of Plant's voice as we knew it. A few successful attempts at weirdness and beauty ("The Grunge" and "The Rain Song," respectively) made up for the apparent aging of the Zeppeling mystique, and the Houses was listenable, far more listenable than its successor. Physical Graffiti. A double album, Graffiti carried the band's "experimental" phase to annoying extremes. Entire songs were devoted to lousy guitar riffs, acoutic material was simply not present, and Jones and Bonham had begun to sound as if they had been under styrene cement therapy. "Led Zeppelin ? C'mon, you don't wanna hear that crap. Anyways, they not worth listening to as far as I'm concerned. Besides, if you wanna hear Zep, you oughta be listening to their first album, not this new stuff. Anybody knows that; a band's first album is always their best anyway. As long as you're up, why don't you throw on some reggae ..." Presence, Led Zeppelin's seventh album, is also their worst (or was up until a few weeks ago) and, naturally, went plantinum long before it reached the stores. The band had achieved huge commercial and critical notoriety, was selling out sports arenas throughout the globe, and had ceased to give a shit. The typical reaction of a band in this situation (that of getting back to one's roots) was carried out to the fullest, and Presence contained no more keyboard craziness, acoustic guitars or any semblance of intelligence. As a matter of fact, the band had gone back further than their roots, for Presence, despite similarities to Led Zeppelin / (crudeness of production, steamroller riff songwriting), was worse than anything then being put out by the many hard rock bands who got their basis from the Phallic Four. "Presence by Led Zeppelin? What're ya kidding me? No, of course I don't have it! I've never owned a Zeppelin album and I never will. U hope she doesn't look in that cabinet) That's kid stuff anyway here, take another hit. No, no fucking Led Zeppelin, I told ya, so don't bother looking! Oh, as long as you're up, get us some more wine and turn over that Wailers album, would ya?" One can't help asking oneself (can one) just what all this is leading up to. Well, quite simply, your humble reviewer was a Led Zeppelin fan for quite a while, and the anger provoked at seeing their long, painful demise needed an outlet (a common syndrome among rock critics these days.) Once upon a time. Led Zeppelin was actually a good band their material was . well it was heavy metal with a little depth. They were electrifying in concert, playing with the energy of the Who, the precision of the Stones, and their own distinctive, unearthy style. Hell, they even did acoustic sets in concert, as a sort of auditory intermission to the high-volume stuff. The Song Remains the Same (it most certainly does not) is their long-awaited live album, the soundtrack of a concert movie filmed mostly at a 1973 Madison Square Garden show. I was at that concert, and upon walking out, decided that I did't like Zepplein anymore. Buy the record and see why. No? Okay, it's boring, sloppy, strained, unimaginative, pretentious, you name it. Twenty-five minutes of "Dazed and Confused" may sound good if you are there watching it (actually it looks better than it sounds violin bow and all) but it makes for an annoying side of music. "Stairway" has been butchered, its only saving grace being the piano and bass pedal work of John Paul Jones. Jones, incidentally, is the only member of the band worth listening to on most of the record, and then only when he's playing keyboards. Jummy Page does add a few interesting fills and snatches of ideas here and there, but is basically jerking off for most of the album. Speaking of jerking off, there is about ten minutes worth of drum solo by John Bonham ("Moby Dick"), and if you ever wonder what that sounds like, try putting your heacHnside a revolving clothes dryer filled with bowling balls. Oh yes, Robert Plant's voice' (in case you haven't caught the drift of most of this article) is burned out beyond belief. So it goes.

Not only her records stopped selling; she was also broke. As a gamble, she corded her first pop album Diamonds and Rust. Instantly upon lease, it won the praise and acclaim of everyone. Not only did it fickly go gold (.5 million units sold), it gave her dying career some jeded life. She decided to tour for the first time in years, and due to e venture's huge success, a well-crafted live album, "From Every Bte," was released. From there to the dream like Rolling Thunder (vue with Bob Dylan, perhaps her biggest idol and influence; the reer of Joan Baez was completely resurrected, and she was as big, if it bigger, than she ever was. It was shortly after the Revue ended that Joan Baez became the rst artist to sign with Portrait Records, a newly established branch of olumbia. Since her contract with A&M had not yet expired, she stilly wed them one album. Unlike most artists who finish up contracts ith anthologies and greatest hit packages, Joan's last disc for A&M lay well be the best she's ever put down on wax. Gulf Winds is the first album that was completely written by Joan. Her other records had some of her compositions, but never more than a cattered few. Here, with every track a Baez composition, a sense of Inity pervades that was lacking on her other efforts. The songs seem nterrelated and all pertain to some aspect of Joan's life. Her ielationship with Dylan seems to come up time after time. On "Time Is passing Us By", she reminisces about their careers: Well it was fun for the first few years, playing "legend in our time” fact that we drifted apart in our prime And we haven't got too much in common except that we're so much alike And / hate it, for though you're a big part of me. but our time is passing us by. The debut track, “Interviews," is a terrible introduction to the unsuspecting listener. Simplistic music backs up idiotic lyrics, (although I'm sure a Dylan-ish message can be extracted from cryptic lyrics such as, "And there was pendulums and sand and Coors cans sitting in the ground 50 million years ago"). Also, in the Dylan tradition, Roscoe West talks, rather than sings, these intellectually insulting words. I hope the band is trying to be funny on the following cut, "Cheap Perfume," because the light-hearted country honky-tonk mood, of this song cannot possibly be taken seriously. They retain this Various Artists, Live at C.B.G.B.'s (Atlantic) ;lt The following questions are taken from the revised 10th edition of the Rock and Roll Bar Examination.

Songs which succeed musically fail topically: "Wouldn't you know, everything's bigger in Texas. Wouldn't you know.” And I should qualify "musical success;" the band is strongest when relying on fairly well-established rhythms and song structures. Because of this, their music is not unique, but they do manage to add a little spice to the styles from which they draw. Vocals on songs other than "Interviews” (Roscoe West mars only that one track) sound slightly better, but not much. Soles practices his Dylan imitation, which is faily easy, since all such an imitation requires is to limit one's vocal range to that of an emotional dissertation and acquire a constipated mid-West accent. Of course, I am a minority. Dylan fans (as in fanatics) may find some redeeming value in The Alpha Band’s first release, other than the fact that the band's five members look imploringly to Him'for wisdom and conntenance. —Ted Vanderlaan included. In even less polite terms; question: how the hell do you turn these guys off? The Miamis, if you really wanted to give them credit, are cute with their store-sign-slogan of a song, "We Deliver." The Laughing Dogs are reminiscent of Chicago without the horns and could, with a good producer, turn out some catchy but anonimous AM material. As for Stuart's Hammer, Manster, and the Shirts (who I have seen live, and who are terrible). I'd rather just ignore their appearances on this album. I mean, Annie Golden of the Shirts, steals from Patti Smith. An imitation of Patti Smith, already how low can you get? Even after all I have said, there still exists, between the grooves, a heavy dose of saving grace. This comes in the form of Mink Deville and Tuff Darts. While not the most exceptional sound you'll ever hear, Derille's two songs are excellent. "Change it Comes" reggaes along with the best of them, and "Cadillac Moon" could have been included on the Stone's Sticky Fingers album, without any question as to who was performing. Saving the best for last. Tuff Darts will inevitably be the first of this crop to score a contract. The band's tie and-jacket Mafia image augments their raucous brand of rock and roll. As for their three cuts, "Slash," "All for The Love of Rock and Roll," a great anthem, if I ever heard one, and, "Head Over Heels," it's simply better than anything Lou Reed has turned out in his last few turns at bats and more fun to listen to than even Aferosmith and The New York Dolls combined.

Her acoustic guitar is the only accompaniment on Gulf Winds, and adds the perfect backdrop to her powerful singing. tour song is an auto biography Summing up, Gulf Winds has no noticeable flaws. Baez is magnificent throughout. I've never heard her sing better and her lyrics are steadily improving. Gulf Winds is really her first genuine album as a complete singer-songwriter.

What might first be mistaken as a crazy eccentricity on the album as a whole is actually a product of abnormal musical and studio effects. Background vocals are reverberated, as if recorded in a cathedral. Fairly mundane melodies are transformed into a sort of countrified Crack The Sky sound through the use of tinny electric and hard-strumming acoustic guitars, overbearing use of cymbals, and energetic bass lines, leaving many songs .. On "0 Brother!," Joan's feelings about Dylan pour through. It eems to have been written either during the Rolling Thunder tour or ight after it ended. Her lyrics are intensely personal, and though they eem rather cutting and sharp toward Dylan; her real love for him is •mnipresent. Witness the last verse: The album's The Alpha Band (Arista) A few thousand Western New Yorkers (and probably a few Canadians) got a taste of this new, unknown band when they opened for Lynyrd Skynyrd a few weeks ago. Judging solely from the review of that concert which appeared in The Spectrum, I would guess that The Alpha Band was less than a sensation. However, an article in the Phonograph Record Magazine reflected a different attitude toward this new band; album reviewer Bud Scoppa attached some importance to this first effort. The reason: the omnipresent influence of the musical God himself, Dylan. Alpha guitarists Steven Soles and T-bone Burnett were linked with "Hard Rain" and the Rolling Thunder Review, respectively.

If some of the The linking of the immoral, racist policy of supporters of the proposal and The Spectrum truly apartheid to the actions of UUAB is clearly idiotic. believes we are racists and support apartheid, then Apartheid calls for separation of the races. we are all deeply in trouble. Interestingly this is exactly what the minority rep Also disturbing were some of the actions of the proposal would do in UUAB. It promotes separation supporters of the proposal. One of the most which supposedly The Spectrum is against. What the outrageous actions was Stu Bison’s demand for a roll editorial ignored and Ms. Braunstein glossed over was call vote.

As a matter of fact it is quite easy to pack demanded the roll call, I was fed up with his these committees. All you need is 5-10 people to constant cries of racism, and being deeply suspicious, attend the committee meetings with some his support of the proposal was for his political consistency and you will control the committee. So future in next spring’s elections, I turned to him and if you are a dormie all you need do is get some of said, ‘Ts this (the roll call vote) for next spring’s the people on your floor together and the committee elections?” He replied, “That’s right.” I have nothing is yours. God knows, we commuters would consider against roll call votes. We should probably use them doing it except UUAB has improved greatly in its all the time, but bringing it up at that Senate film choices and also we don’t have the time.

At 55-60% of the student population we should get an least, though, this time The Spectrum did cover this awful lot more from SA. Why couldn’t 55% of meeting. Too bad, however, that The Spectrum can’t UUAB funds be spent on commuter related separate editorial and news stories.

Frankly, The Spectrum editorial makes little representation in SA despite the Commuter Party victories in September’s elections. (Mr. Guity has sense in places.

I once described this kind of people as A t Large Senator ones who exist on a steady diet of blueberry yogurt To the Editor. Ectivities? — — Misdirected condemnation To the Editor. I was extremely upset over the letter sent to The Spectrum by Jeff Lessoff, Division Director of UUAB. It seems that Mr. Lessoff would have us join , him in his condemnation of former UUAB Visual Arts Chairman William Bernhard’s recent resignation. Many persons with a view of the real issues surrounding a visual arts program feel this condemnation to be misdirected. I believe Mr. Bernhard to have recognized the fact that without proper funding there could be no meaningful visual arts programming on this campus. One of the perceived benefits of a university gallery is to furnish us with exposure to areas of our culture not readily available in our everyday routine. There are some persons in Sub Board and UUAB who feel that if culture cannot turn a profit it is not worth pursuing. If other activities on this campus were funded in a similar fashion there would be no activities. Could we expect musicians to perform for free in coffee house presentations and at concerts? Could we expect anything from a literary arts committee that was forced to present only student literary works? Would there be a speakers bureau if monitors were not paid and speakers were asked to travel across the v country and speak for a fee of $25 or less? ..., There are many artists ’who are willing arid anxious to exhibit their work on or off campus, but not in an inferior gallery which is unwilling to support the artist with sufficient advertisement, open hours, nor renumeration. Artists are tired of being related to as hobbyists. They are professionals trained in their field and deserving of attention and respect. Galleries on other - SUNY campuses put us to shame. Albany for instance has a full-time, fully paid director and a permanent collection which grows each year due to student funding, containing important works which are at times on loan to museums and galleries worldwide. We agree that Gallery 219 is not, the Albright-Knox. It has never attempted to be. What it has attempted to be in the past under many hard working directors and numerous donations from outside the University is a nucleus or meeting place around which to form a meaningful visual arts program for our community. To expect anyone to present us with more of a program than we have had using one-third the past resources is beyond reason, and to me suggests that the persons who control the purse strings have decided that there will be no art program on this campus and have much too obviously planned its demise.

Room 219 To the Editor: I was glad to read the letter sent to The by Jeff Lessoff, Division Director of UUAB. At first offended by his personal attack, I soon realized that he is as much a bureaucrat as the assholes at Sub-Board I. His wholly inaccurate account was an attempt to have me look like the ‘bad buy’ and Sub-Board I the ‘good guys.’ If Jeff would ponder his situation, he might discover that trying to make Sub-Board I look good has been taking up a lot of his time recently. You see, at least Sub-Board I doesn’t really like UUAB so if that’s what the people at UUAB told me you’re the director of UUAB, a little ass kissing is good politics. I didn’t have that problem as chairperson of the Visual Arts Committee. When my committee realized that we had less than one percent of UUAB’s total budget, there was no need to kiss anyone’s ass we’d already been dumped on! When Mr. Lessoff says, “$1,274.00 is not chicken feed,” he’s"right it’s pig shit! When he said he, “personally asked if he could bring student exhibits to this school,” he forgot to mention that during my interview, he was the turkey that claimed to be, “one of the people who didn’t want a gallery.” It was during that interview that the $1,200.00 budget was revealed to me. I had all I could do to keep from bustin’ out a few windows. But I decided to stick it out for a'while at least long enough to see if maybe all this wasn’t just a bad dream. When Jeff said that I, “was very enthusiastic and he’s right and willing to bring in art exhibits . and there are a lot more I’m still enthusiastic people like me on this campus that want a good art gallery here. It pisses me off however when Jeff says, “Very few people realize that there is a gallery on this campus,” and he doesn’t bother to explain why. And how can he honestly say Sub-Board I is making a “last effort, this is a probationary year,” when he knows damn well that Sub-Board I just doesn’t give a shit about an art gallery? He mentions that my quitting “has further hurt the Visual Arts program.” Nothing could hurt it any more than what UUAB and Sub-Board I have done in the past few years my quitting was a way to get all this bullshit out in the open! It’s all too obvious that a gallery can’t survive in the atmosphere Lessoff and Sub-Board I have created. The Gallery, in the past, has put together some fine exhibits, has received much needed support from the community, and was gaining recognition. The real problem is, that while Sub-Board I and UUAB are paying a number of students to be ushers at their movies and concerts, they refuse to provide enough funding for the Gallery to pay one person to sit and watch over the exhibits. It is obvious that Lessoff has no concept of how much funding is required to put on even student shows during a school year. Sub-Board I was presented with very detailed and coherent proposals for a minimum budget ($3,000 to $4,000) and they ignored them Spectrum — — — - - - . — — — totally. It is a disgrace that a university this large has no Buffalo State College provisions for an art gallery has more than one gallery. It is a disgrace that the works of art that belong to SUNYAB are scattered all over no one knows exactly what we’ve got in our collection. It is a disgrace that when our graduate students need space to exhibit, a degree requirement, they get free space from galleries in Buffalo and at Buffalo Stale, but get nothing from their own university. If any of the bureaucrats from Sub-Board I and UUAB really want to know what it takes to run a gallery, even with support from students and the community, there are many qualified people ready to discuss it with them. It doesn’t appear as though we have reached a point where something constructive can be done. Every year the budget for Gallery 219 is cut and then the assholes from Sub-Board I and UUAB complain that the Visual Arts Committee isn’t effective. All I can say to Mr. Lessoff, UUAB and Sub-Board I is, if you are going FUND IT! and stop to fund an art gallery playing your stupid games. — - — — William J. Bernhard Friday, 19 November 1976 The Spectrum Page seventeen . . 1 \ i �! by David J. Rubin and in cooperation with other campus organisations, has organized a series of pre-Thanksgiving programs to put students in the Thanksgiving mood when the holiday comes up next Thursday. The first of these is Turkey Trot, ah annual event on campus which again will be taking place outside Clark Hall, weather permitting. In this race, turkeys from all across Western New York and the Niagara Frontier compete in a two-mile race around campus. Following the race, all the birds are coralled, packaged and marketed by Swift’s Premium for Thanksgiving Day dining rooms, but the winning turkey is specially prepared and served at President Robert Ketter’s Thanksgiving dinner. Second and third place turkeys are sent to Acting President Albert Somit and Vice President Ed Doty, respectively. To make the race just a little bit more interesting, the losing turkey becomes the property of Food Services, which is invited to use the bird for anything in any way it wants. SA Speakers Bureau also has some big plans. Peter Proudfoot, descendant of Chief Sitting Bull, has been scheduled to give a talk on “The Story and Significance of Thanksgiving.” If that alone isn’t enough, world famous chef Julia Child will give a lecture and then lead a workshop entitled, “487 Ways to Stuff Your Turkey.” wisdom, My friend Radar told me last Tuesday over his breakfast of hot dogs and beer that his favorite part of Thanksgiving is waking up early to watch the giant Underdog balloon on the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade on TV. Sb much for Radar, hot dogs and beer. But there are other aspects of Thanksgiving Day which are slightly more significant. Recalling that first winter way back in 1620 (that’s 356 years before the Bicentennial), hanging out with the folks watching football on TC, and eating turkey for the first time since last Thanksgiving are just a few. It seems that Thanksgiving and perhaps the Fourth of July are the only two holidays which Americans really get into as Americans, but since we get off from school during Thanksgiving, it gets the number one ranking in the student polls. Not surprisingly, the popularity which surrounds Thanksgiving permeates the campus in the final few days before everyone goes home to Long Island, or South Buffalo, or Rochester, or wherever people go when the dorms close.

Either you did not read the article, or you are reading in something that is not there. Your accusation concerning the headline is correct. Looking back, I see that both the headline and leading paragraph do give the incorrect impression that only SA is being investigated, and for this I apologize. However, the article does go on to say that the Task Force will investigate This is in response to the accusations made by Mr. Lee Perres in his letter to the editor of November 15. I am the author of the article in question, and I feel most of your accusations are unfounded. First of all, the comment regarding the pocketing of money at certain University functions was a direct quote from my source, who is a member of the Task Force and whose name appears in the complaints concerning any campus organization.

Rather, it might be viewed as a highly reply, let’s examine it further. Suppose for one necessary, however premature, constructive moment that the error had been relatively large, say criticism. What follows is in regard to Chemistry 20%, for reasons which I won’t go into. Taking into 101, so don’t confuse it with the chemistry account that a 4.93% error is deductible by 12 department as a whole as I will use the term loosely. points, as logic would indicate, we deduce a grade of It would be wrong for me to talk about the whole roughly 23/25. Can you see the absurdity in this chemistry department as I know little of its policies. grading system? So, you still can’t see my point? As it turns out, the grading and testing system Let’s take one final look at that problem 23/25 is of the chemistry department is relatively insensitive certainly not what the student would have received and, as many have already been noticed, extremely as a grade. Instead, he is given a grade comparable to rigid. If you question the validity of that statement, the student who received a percentage error of less try interpreting the 44 percent average for the Chem. than 5%; this may be true due to the feeling that 101 student on exam two of this semester. There is after a certain percentage error is reached it becomes serious doubt that well over half of these students unwise to deduct any further points. So, do you lack the intelligence to pass a course such as honestly feel it is fair to give the same grade to a student who was relatively close (4.93% error) to the chemistry, however technical it may seem. I really don’t believe that the main problem lies actual value as compared to a student who was well in the “hardness” of the tests, but rather in the way off from the actual value (say even 75%)? in which the system of grading is approached. To be Just for note, 1 would like to say that there have specific about the conflict let me touch upon the been discrepencies cited in the marking of labs. One area dealing with laboratory experiments. An teacher will give full credit, while another will get experiment is performed, observations are made, partial or not credit from his teacher for precisely calculation carried out, data recorded, and this is the same response. But it wouldn’t be fair to blame compiled and written down on the lab manual sheets this on the teachers (or whoever is responsible for for the particular experiment. It is then handed in grading the tests and labs) as they are only human the following week at recitation and graded. and quite obviously are subject o making mistakes The purpose of any lab, as I see it, is to now and then just as students are. There is a point introduce the student to procedures through the use somewhere in there . . . oh, yes in regard to test of laboratory apparatus to determine certain two, I think it would have been wiser for the properties and/or dimensions of chemical substances, instructors to have given more credit to problems on how they react, why they form, what they form, and of the exam where only careless mistakes part perhaps even when. The student then derives certain such/ as multiplication or addition errors were values, which may include such things as the freezing present. point, molecular weight, molarity, or any other such In conclusion. I’d like to add that if the goal of properties. I’m sure you understand and agree with, the chemistry department in regard to Chem. 101 is to some extent, what was just written.

But the number one attraction on the agenda for the upcoming Thanksgiving week is a speech by SA President Steven Schwartz on “What We As Students Have To Give Thanks For.” Inside sources say that Schwartz has had his ghost writers working on a speech for the last month, but that only five minutes worth of material, mostly bad one-liners, has actually been written. Speakers Bureau Chairman Janet Evans said that Schwartz has repeatedly asked her to change the topic of his talk, but she said that she feels the topic is of utmost importance to the University community, and will not change it.

Friday, 19 November 1976 by The UFW Support Committee Anybody remember the grape, lettuce and Gallo wine boycott? Most folks you talk to these days say that as far as they know the boycott has long since ended, now that the United Farm Workers (UFW), AFL-CIO, has won its long struggle to unionize migrant farm laborers, right? Wrong. Dead wrong. Sure, the UFW had won 49 union contracts with growers as of last September. However, there are still hundreds of growers who have eitherrefused to bargain in good faith with the UFW or who have signed “sweetheart contracts” with the Teamster’s Union. With such sweetheart agreements, the Teamster’s Union secretly approaches growers who have been under contract with the UFW, and signs contracts with thfese growers (E.J. Gallo, for example) without ever asking the actual farm workers whether they want to be represented by the Teamsters. Of course the growers and Teamsters know the answer would undoubtedly be no, since the Teamster contracts invariably provide far fewer benefits than do UFW contracts. Getti g back to the boycott, it is a little known fact that only about 5 percent of all California table grapes, and about 50 percent of California iceberg lettuce is being picked by UFW-represented workers. The owners of the non-union farms continue to be leaders in the effort to maintain the system of exploitation in the fields. Some of the specifics of this exploitation include: a life expectancy of 49 years, an average annual income of $1500, a susceptibility to infectious diseases like pneumonia and tuberculosis 300 percent greater than the national average, a chance to become one of the hundred thousand yearly victims of pesticide poisoning, one of 800,000 children under 16 in the sweltering fields 12-15 hours a day, one of the 80 percent of farm workers’ children who never see the inside of a high school, one of those who must call a rat infested shack a home, a family in which the children who pick the food you and I eat are starving to death, etc., etc. Until union victories are won in these fields, the boycott of non-UFW grapes, lettuce and Gallo wine will continpe. So be sure to look for the UFW eagle on your produce, and if you don’t see it, demand to know from the store manager why he or she is selling non-UFW produce. In case anyone hasn’t heard, the UFW suffered a setback this election day with the defeat in California of Proposition 14, a would-be amendment to the state constitution which would have ensured state enforcement of many of the UFW’s major demands. Such a defeat was possible only through the determined financial effort by the wealthy agribusiness interests to scare the voters into turning down the referendum. By raising millions to fund a slanderous and demagogic advertising campaign the rich growers were able to beat down this, important effort. However, the UFW movement is still plenty alive, and is moving ahead with plans to win many more union elections in the upcoming months. One of the most important accomplishments oHhe UFWhas been the establishment of several health clinics designed to provide the absolutely essential medical services farm workers and their families need. Usually ineligible for medicaid, blue cross/blue shield, or other common health insurance plans, many farm workers go without the medical attention you and 1 take for granted. With UFW membership, however, comes access to the vital services provided by the aforementioned clinics. Needless to say it takes a lot of money to construct, staff and operate such clinics. The Ideal UFW Buffalo support committee is .attempting to raise funds to further the ongoing success of these facilities. One such endeavor will be taking place this evening, Friday, November 19, when a dance featuring the Outer Circle Orchestra will take place in the Goodyear Cafeteria, Main St. campus, starting at 9 p.m. There will be beer, food, dancing and a good time for all, and all proceeds will benefit a most timely cause indeed. We of the UFW Support Committee look forward to seeing you there. �-o: POLICE BLOTTER The following are crimes investigated by University Police as reported on the police activity sheet.

The showdown was expected to be a defensive battle, as both teams boasted efficient amazingly defensive squads. The Bionics held a slight edge as they hadn’t allowed a single point all season. QB took the opening kickoff and right away advanced, mainly due to the efforts of the hot combination of passing quarterback Brian Rosenblum and receiver Mode Fox. However, the Bionic defense tightened, and they took control of the pigskin. They were unsuccessful in moving up the field, so they punted back Last •. Rotary to QB. The Bionics got the ball right back as Doug Schram intercepted a long 714 attempted pass. Again, there was no productive offense, as an exchange of punts took place. This time, however, the Bionics began to crank up their powerful offense, which until this point was dormant. On first down, Bionic quarterback Mike Betz ran the ball for a short gain. On the next two downs, he completed passes to John Buszka and Dave Borsuk, putting the ball on the QB 15 yard line with only two seconds remaining in the first half. The last play of the half was incomplete, but due to a QB infraction, the play was run again (a half cannot end on a penalty). However, the result was the same, as the intended touchdown pass was broken up, and the half ended in a scoreless tie. The Bionics hadn’t lost their momentum from the end of the first half. Betz opened the second half with successful scrambles and a completed pass to Mike Gjph, and then threw an 18 yard pass touchdown to Borsuk, placing the Bionics ahead by a score of 6-0. The extra point was successful, as Betz rolled right, avoiding a strong pass rush, and tossed to Gary Schwartzenholzer, who barely managed to keep his feet in bounds. With about 11 minutes remaining in the game, the 714’s finally started to click. On first down, it was Rosenblum to Fox again (as it had been all game), and on second down Rosenblum scrambled to the Bionic 12 yard line. The next two plays saw the QB’s drive down to the three yard line. On fifth down, Rosenblum avoided a powerful Bionic pass rush long enough to connect with Fox once more, this time for a 714 touchdown. This tightened the score to 7-6, with the ensuing extra point try broken up by Schram, as he sacked Rosenblum. The first score of the year against the Bionic Men was a great incentive to- the 714’s, who regained the ball almost immediately, by way of a Bionic turnover. But, their first down, a long gain, was called back due to an offensive infranction. The penalty took the steam out of QB 714’s sails, as on the following play, Schram picked off yet another 714 aerial. The Bionics moved the ball to the QB 12 yard line, where the. 714 defense stiffened enough to regain control of the ball with 1:08 remaining in the game. Slowly but surely, QB moved into Bionic territory, fighting the clock, which had become their 1976 movie that has surpassed the glory of ‘KABHI KABHI’ and AANDHI’ 6:00 pm Saturday, November 20th - Venue: V^HhKi “ V nMMl'Kli-lhf 65 THE/\rA?£- The events ore real.

When Dan Ane ripped a 35-foot slap shot past Bulls netminder Johnny Moore at 5:39 of the overtime period, the tiny crowd in enthusiastic Romney Field House went wild. Buffalo opened the scoring at 2:15 of the second period when Chris Bonn converted a Ron Reisweber pass at the goalmouth, tipping the puck past Laker goalie Steve Paluseo. Oswego tied it up however, when old Bull nemesis Ray Seeback flipped a follow-up shot past Moore who was down on the play. Last year Seeback destroyed the Buffalo skaters, picking up six goals and four assists in three games. It appeared that the Bulls were doomed when Moore made his only mistake of the night, and let a 1 5-foot roller slide through his legs into the net, giving Oswego a - 2-1 lead. “That was totally my fault,” commented Moore. “Maybe there Baseball. difference” between college and the minors. “If anything,” hp said, was a break in my concentration. Anyway, it was a 100 percent screw up.” For Moore, though, the vening was a good one, as the veteran goalie kicked Out 45 shots with many dazzling saves, and kept the Bulls in the game through the first two periods, when they were outshot 31-11. He seemed more confident and aggressive in his play, and his enthusiasm carried over to his teammates. “Johnny kept us in there; he played just super,” said Bonn, who proved to be invaluable playing on a regular line shift and killing penalties with acting team captain Jack Kaminska. Mike Dixon Right wing displayed as much foie de vivre as did Moore, and added tension to the drama of the evening when he knotted the score at two, with just five seconds remaining in the second period. “The puck came out to center, and he [Ray Gruarin] shot. The goalie made a good save, and I just put the rebound up over him,” said Dixon of his tally. It was Dixie’s first goal since the 1974-5 season as he sat out last year in favor of playing varsity baseball. “I have nothing but accolades for Dixon; it’s hard to believe he’s been away for a year,” said Buffalo coach Ed —continued from page 7 • . p.m. jBBh 19.^9 Hamilton Beach Little Mac® burger maker.

In a more serious address to the SA officers, Somil said, "In three or four years you should turn your attention towards undergraduate education. There has been a strange silence from the students on what they want out of college. Are they getting what they want and if they’re not, why aren't they? The importance of the answers to these questions should be your main concern." After lunch the workshop resumed with discussion and debate on the SUNY budget dilemma, unionization and campus organization. Sunday, the conference continued with the group splitting up into their designated committees. The budget committee, chaired by Scott Miller, will work to inform the student body on the financial stale of SUNV while trying to, meet with members of the administration to see how the combined efforts of students, and administrators may teachers improve the situation. I (trough an all-out publicity campaign including, the utilization of the radio, we'll try to reach the students." Miller said. "We'd like to get all of the Resident Advisors in the dorms to hold floor meetings so that we can speak to the students directly. In addition, we'd like to bombard the Stale legislature with postcards from' every student on this campus." But "there are many advantages to be had as a student of SUNN AB.

He has already coordinated several exhibits in Gallery 219 and is in the process of “building a permanent art collection.” When asked about possible further budget cutbacks by yUAB, Parr preferred to be optimistic, noting, “If they see I coutd do well with S1200, I could do a lot more with S5000.” Judy Trieble, last year’s chairwoman, submitted a ten-page proposal to Sub Board and received a budget of $3000, considerably less than what she had requested. She went to the budget hearings in August and claimed that no one had even read her proposal. Instead, Sub Board insisted Treible justify the receipt of any money since Gallery 219 doesn’t turn a profit and is not very popular among students. She said, “Visual arts would never make it in a popularity contest,” and added that the budget hearings were very frustrating. This hostility coupled with the attitude that “no one was interested” had a big effect on Treible’s decision to resign last spring. Questions concerning the visability of visual arts on campus have • surfaced following the resignation of Gallery 219 Chairman William Bernhard last Monday. The resignation, which was attributed'to budget cuts that befell the Gallery, has prompted an unofficial investigation the concerning whereabouts of the University’s art collection and the non-existence of an Art Department-supported gallery. Gallery 219, funded by the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) Division of Sub Board, suffered a budget cut of about $1800 this year, leaving a total budget of $1274. Bernhard insisted that $1274 is not enough to run “a good gallery” in a University of this size. Each exhibit costs approximately $200 including installation, security and an opening reception. The funds allocated would only allow about six exhibits a year, excluding any traveling exhibit with the New York State Gallery Association. UUAB Division Director Jeff Lessoff said that UUAB supported Gallery 219 despite Sub Board’s opposition, who, 'at the August budget hearings wanted to abolish it because “it didn’t turn a profit.” Lessoff was “confused” by Bernhard’s resignation. “He knew how much money he was getting, and then decided to Could have been “The Gallery could have been a fantastic place,” she said, “if it weren’t for the political motivations governing the ” budget hearings. Art Department Graduate Assistant Roger Rapp was very disturbed about Bernhard’s resignation and the Gallery’s low budget. Questions concerning the Gallery, the department and the University’s art collection began to trouble him. Investigations by Rapp about where the resign Poor attendance and location has also hurt the Gallery, and Lessoff insists that UUAB has “no malice” towards the visual arts committee. He reports tnat he is seeking a better space for the gallery. “We’ve been cut this year, but that doesn’t mean we can’t do anything,” he said. Acting Gallery 219 Chairman Steve Parr took the job soon after Bernhard resigned and is “super enthusiastic,” according to Lessoff. Because of a small budget, he is hoping to bring more student exhibits to the gallery, in addition to artists from the community. “It’s not how much money ' collection with any one who has any information to offer.” When asked about the collection. Art Department Chairman Don Robertson said it is “broken up in many parts,” including some currently in President Robert (setter's house. Robertson said that lack of space to house the collection in its entirety keep it from being displayed on campus. Lack of space and “frozen funds,” said Robertson, is also the reason for there is no collection is located found only that a “partial list” is “floating around soTnewhere,” according to Tom R'andauT Coordinator of Facilities Planning. Randall, who has been active in the development of a gallery on Campus for many years, sent “a sketchy list of prints” to Peter Koffman (former professor of Art History) about years ago. Since then the list has hit many offices, “but no one bothered to hold on to it,” says Rapp. Shonney Finnegan, director of the Enthusiastic ■ University Archives, said she is “willing to compile information concerning the department-supported art gallery. Randau is also active in the search for a gallery and is currently negotiating to have 1301-K STATH STUDENT UNION HOARD the Haven Library on the North Campus he gallery space Although Randau and Robertson are not working together on this, the Department of Architecture, under Robertson’s guidance, is building models for proposed galleries.

It’s a symbol for life The University Union Activities Board (UUAB) Film Committee announced today that it is cancelling showings Of The Education of Sonny Carson and Cooley High scheduled for this coming weekend, due to a planned picket and boycott by minority groups on campus. Instead, the films Love and Anarchy (Thurs.,'Fri.) and Seduction of Mimi (Sat., Sun.) both directed by Lena Wertmuller will be shown. Concern about possible disruptions was cited as the main reason for the action. “With the large numbers of students coming through Norton Hall, the potential for violence was just too much to take a chance on,” said UUAB Division Director Jeff Lessoff. He dismissed economic considerations as a reason for the cancellation. “We might have to pay for the films anyway,” he remarked He did, however, claim frustration. ’’The film lists have been out for months. How come at this late date are we receiving objections to these films?” Lessoff asked. “My apologies to those minority students who inquired about these films. Maybe if we jean settle this issue we can bring them later in the year.” Student Association Minority Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity felt that they (UUAB) were insinuating that there would be violence on the picket line, and added that the pickets were peaceful at the Norman Conners concert. He further said that through charges like this, UUAB is trying to perpetuate unpleasant relations between the black and white students on this campus. Affirmative Action is termed inadequate A report released Thursday by the New York State Advisory Commission on Civil Rights condemns the Affirmative Action efforts of the State University (SUNY) system as inadequate. During the six years the Commission has examined SUNY, little has been done to work blacks, women and other minorities into its professional and administrative staff, the report said. Despite what was supposed to be a big push to bring minotiries into the mainstream of university life, percentage-wise minority groups have gained little since 1970. This is despite the existence of equal opportunity, civil rights arid human rights organizations. Statistics provided by SUNY and released by the Commission show that in the 1975-76 school year, blacks comprised 3.1 percent of the University’s faculty, Hispanics one percent and-women 22-9. In 1970, a year before the SUNY trustees announced plans for an affirmative action program, blacks held 2.5 percent, Hispanics three-tenths of one percent, and women 20.4 percent. Little progress Additional statistics show that blacks hold only 1.1 percent of the 814 SUNY positions paying more than $30,000 annually while women hold 3.4. Franklin H. Williams, chairman of the Advisory Committee, summed up the groups conclusions: “The SUNY system, since it first instituted its equal employment opportunity policy five years ago, has not succeeded in hiring significantly more minorities and women on its professional staff and has not succeeded in significantly promoting a larger number of women to its higher salaried positions.” Responding to the report, Acting SUNY Chancellor Dr. James Kelly, said the university’s minority employment record “compares favorably” with that of other U.S. colleges, and cited the “low availability of minority group members with academic degrees. “The change in the work force composition between 1970 and 1975, while not as dramatic an improvement as we would have wished, still represents a significant gain for minorities and women." In a recent report to federal authorities, SUNY also noted there is “little recruiting and hiring going on” due to tHe state’s budget problems.

We hope .that students on this campus will attempt to attend and appreciate the many events these students have worked so hard to bring to this campus. Southern Africa: Southeast Asia of the 70s? Millions of black people in southern Africa have already won their freedom from colonial rule. Many other African blacks, in a change of mood that terrifies leading Western powers as well as the remaining white African regimes, have begun to think in terms of when, not if, they will obtain black majority rule. Rhodesia is presently on the brink of an all-out liberation war, and the chain of events leading up to that historic situation began a mere two and a half years ago April 25, 1974. On that date, a group of Portuguese military officers made up primarily of the discontented and war-v/veary junior corps overthrew the half-century old Portuguese fascist government, and ushered in a series of developments that ended Portuguese African rule, and "threatened" to bring socialism to Portugal itself. The coup precipitated political upheaval that drew Portugal farther and farther to the left, and was soon to have global consequences. The book is not yet closed on the Portugese political situation. The most ominous possibility is that significant U.S. business interests in South Africa will lead to U.S. military involvement that could lead to a confrontation with the Soviet Union. — Important colonial power underdeveloped economically, Seriously Portugal was nevertheless an important colonial power in Africa,, extending formal government control over Angola and Mozambique, two large countries that together with Zambia form the northern-most portion of southern Africa. The Portugese colonies were strategic in that they shielded the rest of southern Africa: Rhodesia (African name: Zimbabwe), South West Africa (Namibia), Botswana, and South Africa (Azania) from the pressures of black majority rule that have slowly displaced colonial regimes in northern and central Africa; The Angolan and Mozambiquan revolutionary movements began in the early sixties, growing in strength until, by 1974, they had tied down 40 percent of the Portuguese federal budget in military expenditures. This drain on Portuguese resources, including a hated military draft, created a popular discontent with the regime that was to provide the broad base of support needed by the Armed Forces Movement (AFM) to overthrow Portuguese fascism. . One of the AFM's prime objectives was to release Portugal from the burden of its colonial responsibilities and military commitments, and, in fact, power was quickly transferred to the unified and well-developed black liberation movement in Mozambique, where a socialist government now exists. In Angola, however, the resistance movement was beset by internal squabbles among the three major resistance groups. The primary dispute was between the purely nationalist organizations (desiring black independence politically, but little social change) and the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA), the revolutionary movement working for independence as well as for a fundamental social rearrangement, eventually to result in socialism. Military staging grounds After the Portuguese left the country, civil war’ broke out among these Angolan political factions, finally resulting in MPLA control over Angola last spring. As in Vietnam, another socialist country was Special Section established following a long and bitter fight against colonialism South West Africa (Namibia) has been the staging ground for South African military operations during the Angolan civil war earlier this year, in which they supported the Angolan nationalist group UNITA is its conflict with MPLA. Still present in Angola (to "protect" the South African-financed Cunene dam), the apartheid forces are now principally engaged in battling the South West African People's Operation (called SWAPO) that is the only internationally-recognized representative of the Nambian people, and which is now carrying on a guerilla war to oust the South African troops that are occupying their country. Granted a mandate over the former German indigenous population. As in any guerrilla war, small concentrated areas are far easier to defend than vast portions of countryside. It has already been reported that South African troops are fearful of excursions into the countryside, and do so only in large numbers or under heavy air support. Black independence in Angola and Mozambique has accomplished an immensely far reaching and significant achievement. It has convinced millions of the oppressed blacks and "coloreds" (mixed racial backgrounds) in Rhodesia, Namibia and South Africa that white rule is not omniscient and all that blacks themselves can rise to powerful, overthrow racist colonial regimes. That confidence manifested itself last summer in -continued on page 10 territory by the League of Nations after World War I, South Africa has exploited Namibia's resources and people even more brutally than in the apartheid state itself. In 1966, after an investigation of the Namibian situation, the United Nations revoked the mandate given South Africa 40 years before, and demanded that the apartheid regime cease its occupation of the territory. The International Court of Justice (the Hague Court) later confirmed the U.N. declaration that south Africa was administrating Namibia illegally. Socialist Angolan 'menace' To this day South Africa continued to illegally control Namibia, to which it has extended its apartheid laws. South Africa also recently declared the entire northern half of the country a free fire zone under martial law, to effectively deal with SWAPO, and what it termed the socialist Angolan menace Naturally, those few civil liberties that had existed there up to that time were suspended, and South Africa has even begun a campaign to herd the population into concentration camps modeled after the "strategic hamlets" in Vietnam. The idea is to deny Namibian revolutionaries the vitally-needed support that they can easily get from the oppressed Wednesday, 17 November 1976 .

Special Section �Bantustan independence a farce South Africa is desperately attempting to limit rising international pressure against its apartheid practices. Essentially uncompromising wrth respect to these policies, Pretoria is presently endeavoring to perpetuate apartheid, and stifle critics of its racism •'-•V,.., in one blow. The method to be used is the creation of "bantustans" or "homelands" out of the native reserves created during British rule, and which were allotted on the basis of differences between tribal groups. One of the largest of these homelands, Transkei, achieved independence of a sort in October, and will be detailed later. First developed under Prime Minister Hendrik Verwoerd in the fifties, the nevy homeland policies are an outgrowth of separate development practices employed in South Africa since its colonization in the 1600s. Colonists in Africa have always designated areas of the country "for whites only," and relegated the native inhabitants to specially set aside reserves. Few times, however, has this kept blacks from working in the white areas, and even the restrictive Johannesburg parks allow "in attendance upon Europeans." The natives who are servants actual effect was to prevent Africans from residing, owning property or claiming any rights. Similar to the United States' treatment of Native Americans, South Africa has also felt free to change homeland boundaries when valuable minerals were found or white farmers demanded lan(J. — Deterioration of land Beginning in the mid-fifties, however, the Pretoria government sought to change the status of these reserves to homelands into which all Africans would be finally moved, industry created, black governments set up, and which would eventually become independent, self-ruled nations. 'The guiding philosophy is the separate development of the races, wherein racial "dignity" and purity is maintained. Ten bantustans comprising the poorest and least mineral-rich land in South Africa has thus been "given" to the African people who make up more than 70 percent of the population. There is almost no indgstry in these areas, and since the white-owned farms lie outside the homelands, and the land is of very poor fertility, agriculture is underdeveloped and of low yield. In 1925, studies of the proposed reserves judged the land "incapable of supporting the population." In 1954, a government study declared 75 percent of the land fairly eroded due to mismanagement of geographical factors, and recommended a 50 percent reduction in the population. Since that time, the 1956 to aid the establishment of black businesses with the homelands, and white industries that would border on them. Actually, BIC has used almost all of its funds (estimates range up to 90 percent) on white industry, both bordering and inside the homelands. As for black business, only the most petty, retail enterprises has received ariy money. Therefore, from the start, white domination of the economy is being assured. Even so, investment in the area has been small, and 54,000 jobs were created by 1968. Nevertheless, more and more are meaning the families of black workers “superfluous" blacks forced to live in “their" homelands. Many of these removed Africans have never seen their 'home' lands." In creating the independent lands, the South African government is designing the legislative, executive and judicial bodies that will govern the new nations. There is overwhelming evidence, however, to indicate that even in the most formal sense, truly independent governments will never exist. This is most obvious in Transkei, the homeland that received-its independence October 26. Of the 109 members of the Transkei legislative assembly, 64 are appointed by Pretoria, only 45 elected by an embarrassingly low voter turnout in 1968, reported at less than five persons per polling place. The majority of the elected seats were won by the South African supported Independence Party. (BIC) in — — A pretense at independence As .for cabinet ministries) there are only a few responsible finance, justice, interior, positions controlled by Transkeians education and agriculture. South Africa has retained control over foreign and defense policy, the military, public finance and the police. Crucially, they have also kept power regarding constitutional — amendments. Perhaps most important is that two thirds of the Transkeian budget of $150 million is provided by South Africa. This is hardly surprising when almost all Transkei inhabitants have barely subsistence incomes, and there exists practically no taxpaying industry. A conflict over the summer best illustrated the type of independence Transkeians can expect from Pretoria. The Xhosa is the tribe that is to reside in Transkei, but.almost none of the Xhosa who live outside of the homeland in South Africa had registered for Transkeian citizenship as independence neared. Acknowledging that fact, the Transkei government passed an amendmeht to the constitution, making citizenship optional for South African Xhosa. Since this would fundamentally limit Pretoria's power to deport its resident Xhosans to Transkei, the South African government overrode the amendment and passed a law depriving Xhosans of their South African citizenship as of Independence Day. The 1.3 million South African Xhosans are therefore now stateless or "citizens of a foreign state." Naturally, their rights are less, accordingly. Black discontent Most of the world has viewed the bantustan plans as a sham, and only a few countries have recognized the Transkei government. South Africa continues with its plans, however, and it is reported that Pretoria wishes to use these plans as a model for 'self rule' in South West Africa, the country to South Africa's northwest that it government has increased the numbers living there, most likely aggrevating the deterioration of land quality. More than 1,000,000 blacks have, in fact, been ordered onto the homelands since 1960, creating mass unemployment there, and an income that averages $97 per year. This is shocking, even by black South African standards. Unsuccessful industry n we grant them (either now nor ever." frican Prime Minister Plans, to develop industry in the homelands have been largely unsuccessful. Pretoria set up the Bantu Investment Corporation occupies illegally. At this point, the South African program to "liberate the black people" is so discredited among native persons, that some analysts see it as damaging to South Africa's long term interests. With so thoroughly a fake self rule as in Transkei, it js believed that the entire concept of a Pretoria-controlled transition of power to collaborationist black leaders is no longer viable, as it Was elsewhere in Africa. Consequently, it is more likely that when the time is ripe, an explosion of black discontent will wash away all in its path, and create something entirely new. Such an occurrence would leave the position of the white South African in severe doubt. m Iys* ** 1 * our people to sieze leader of SWAPO Wednesday, 17 November 1976 . The Spectrum .

The South Apartheid Institutionalized racism keeps profits high, whites prosperous extreme of is the most form racism, and is actively practiced in South Africa, Rhodesia and South West Africa (Namibia). Just as fascism's suspension of civil liberties and labor rights is best able to repress any organizing attempts by the workforce, so apartheid embodies the measures that most effectively prevent any black organizing, especially that of Apartheid institutionalized essentially an already apartheic state. The United Party, primary voice of the opposition, represents financial interests, desirous of slightly less restrictive labor policies, and therefore differed politically only on certain practical aspects of apartheid.

From laws that practically ban black trade unions, to "pass laws" that severely restrict the movements of the native population, apartheid has scored its greatest success in keeping black wages down to less than one tenth of white earnings.

This would endanger the almost $2 billion U.S. investment in South Africa, as well as the huge debt it owes to U.S. banks.

[The K i ssinger-Vorster proposals for a two-year interim government that would draw up the future Rhodesia constitution seems doomed. See story on page Page ten The Spectrum Wednesday, 17 November 1976 of this section.] The U.S. government fears that, should the white regime not hand over power immediately and unconditionally, the ensuing war could result in the establishment of a revolutionary regime that would be inalterably opposed to continued apartheid and white minority rule in South Africa. Such a government would also be opposed to "neo-colonial" or sell-out black leadership that would not truly represent black aspirations for freedom and, as with some other black African governments, would be heavily influenced by Western businesses and governments. two Escalation and war One such example- is Zaire, which during the Angolan civil war channeled CIA funds to organizations within Angola, great.

Special Section �EditPrial Affirmative Action report The report released last week from the New York State Advisory Committee to the United States Commission on Civil Rights did not offer any great surprise in saying that SUNY has made "very little progress" in hiring minorities and women. In 1970 blacks made up 2.5 percent, Hispanics made up 0.3 percent, and women made dp 20.4 percent of the faculty positions, according to the report. The most recent figures made available to the Advisory Committee show that as of 1975 blacks make up 3.1 percent, Hispanics make up 1 percent, and women made up 22.9 percent of the faculty y in the five-year period, minority faculty increased by slightly more than 1 percent and female faculty by approximately 2.5 percent. And, expectedly, minorities and women are even less well represented in the higher administrative levels, and are lower-paying non-tenured in generally concentrated positions. Acting SUNY Chancellor James Kelly is unfortunately correct in noting that SUNY compares favorably with other colleges in the country and in saying the task of recruitment is made more difficult by the low availability of minority group members with academic degrees. But his saying that although the improvement is not dramatic, it represents a significant gain, is patently absurd. The import of the study is that so far Affirmative Action has been a failure. There aren't any easy answers, though. Administrators concerned with Affirmative Action speak in terms of baffling problems, not solutions. On campuses today there is greater concern with simply retaining a position, rather than who fills it. Department chairmen and administrators still manage to circumvent search procedures. Personal and institutional racism seem to grow in uncertain economic times, and more and more people are deciding that Affirmative Action is itself discriminatory. Somehow it seems there is still a world to be done simply in changing people's attitudes. Meanwhile, the Committee's recommendation to investigate the problems of Affirmative Action are thoroughly justified and should be initiated at the earliest possible opportunity. ‘hird World Week The Third World Week program which begins this evening deserves the attention of every member of the University community who has any interest in the emerging Third World Countries, and the events which are shaping tomorrow's world. The speakers, panel discussions, films and plays amount to one of the more impressive programs organized by students at this University in years. Our special section on Southern Africa is meant to coincide with the Third World Week events on that troubled region, and to add to the dialogue with the representatives of the Zimbabwe liberation movement who arrive here as part of the program.

I would like to thank Leslie Kane for her article on Millard Fillmore College in Wednesday’s The Spedrum and to correct a few remarks which appear to have been misrepresented. I have not heard evidence that learning does not take place in classes of more than twenty students. MFC has experienced staff reductions and, whether justly or unjustly, on occasion a-nd not \mlike other departments, has felt particularly hard pressed. Fortunately, to date, evening instruction has jiot been affected. What most needs saying is that the University can and should take pride in the higher educational services which it has provided to many thousands of adults in Western New York communities through MFC’s 50-year history.

I assume he means the calendar year 1977-7$ or possibly even 1967-77. As for the calendar year 1977-78, the Calendar Committee has not as yet met.

As a matter of fact, in 1973 a protest was made. I am sorry that my memory does not go further back on this matter.

It took a third bus at 7:20 to bring the remainder of students home. One bus after an exam of this magnitude, and then only one more half an hour later, is ridiculous. Buses should be planned for such events in the future so as to alleviate mass hysteria and the possibility of injuries. Buses are an inconvenience as is; we put up with them out of necessity. Why is extra inconvenience also necessary? Finals are the week of December 15-21. Will we go through the same thing To the Editor. On Monday, November 8th between 5 and 6 approximately 1200 students had a Chemistry exam on Main Street. A large number of these students came from the Amherst Campus. Proof of this lies in the fact that there was a mob scene at the bus pick-up area. All these students had to vie for' the few seats of one bus. Needless to say, there were very few girls on the bus. This is the second time this incident has occurred this semester. One would think the University would be aware of the scheduling of again? these exams and plan to furnish extra buses. Of course, buses cost money but the inconvenience that many people experienced is intolerable; not to mention the danger inherent in such poor planning. p.m., Conference on Gary J. Gutenstein Sean Duffy international situation To the Editor. A conference on the international situation, war, revolution and the internationalist tasks'of the American people will be held Saturday, November 20, 1976 at Columbia University in New York City: What’s going on around the world? Where does the threat of war come from? What is the role of the U.S. and the U.S.S.R.? Of China? Of Cuba? And what are the duties and tasks of the American people in the international struggle against imperialism and oppression? These are not idle questions confronting only a few. They arise directly from the real events around the world that are shaping the history of the 1970’s. And just as those events affect the lives of millions, so the actions of the millions affect the course of events. ‘ , Debate over these issues is raging. It could not In the pages of newspapers, in the statements and actions of groups and organizations, in the ever more serious discussions among the masses of American people.

And now, just as then, the actions of the people can make a crucial difference in the struggle worldwide. There is an "urgent need to both sharpen and broaden the debate to put the different views and ideas and trends squarely and clearly before the greatest number of people. This conference on the international situation can be a big step in that direction. Through panels, workshops, speeches and debates, the struggle can go on in an open and lively manner that will surely attract great numbers of people concerned about these issues, probably thousands of people. That is how we are building this conference to clarify and focus questions, sharpen differences and pose answers and directions for all of us to wrestle with. It is not a conference only of members of the academic community, or experts, or only of Marxist-Leninists, or only of veteran activists. It is not a conference which will strive to come up with a “working unity” or to build a permanent coalition. The Ad Hoc Committee for the conference is working to make it a success: a conference like this needs to be very well organized, publicized and built for in order to make the greatest advances. We call on you to join us in building this conference, and in debating these burning issues.

I am not saying that we, as minority students, don’t want to be part of Student government. We have tried, but whenever you represent the interest of Minority students, you are labeled as agitators. Why is it? Because we refuse to accept the bullshit that’s being handed out? I would like to take you back three, years when Larry Williams was president of the Black Student Union. At the Student Assembly, Larry demanded that minority student fees should be separate, since our money was spent for things that didn’t relate to our life style, in any manner. This demand was made because there wasn’t any' minority input or minorities in any decision-making post in Sub Board, S.A. or UUAB. There wasn’t any then and not too many now. Lessoff stated that “UUAB is an organization designed to service all the students at this University.” This sounds very good on paper, UUAB may have been designed to service all the cultural needs of students, but the organization is not doing the job that it was designed to do. I would like to know how in hell you program for everyone when ther6 isn’t input? Do you program for Indian students? Did you ever go to the International Living Center to see what kind of cultural program they wanted? They pay their fees also. Mr. Lessoff, why should we, as Third World students or whoever, support UUAB activities when the programs are designed only to make money for UUAB and, to give the appearance that there is .minority programming? You ask, is UUAB racist for spending $12,000. My answer is no, but after losing $60,000 last year, you noticed that the Funkadelics and the Ray Ayers concert sold out so you decided to jump on the bandwagon. You knew that if it were not for the boycott, UUAB would have made its money back. Last year the minority line was $10,000 for the whole year. This year you spent $12,000 for one concert so the way 1 see it, the expenditure was justified because you would have made your money back.

Specifically, your statement about catering to minority groups: we discriminate against white students by making separate lines for white and minority students, and we just increase the problems between students on this campus. 1 don’t think you can prove that over the last five years UUAB has catered to any minority group on this campus and the only reason why there is a need for a separate line is because with a separate line there would at least be some money for minority programming. In conclusion, I would like to say that Third World students are getting a raw deal by speaking up for what is ours. If UUAB was really concerned with duped I am writing in response to a letter that was printed in The Spectrum last Wednesday by Jeff Limited Quantities: - The racist University To the Editor. SALE LITTLE PROFESSOR BOOK CENTER University Plaza — 838-6717 ATTENTION ALL STUDENTS!!!! The Student Assoc, office of Student Affairs Exists for you! Contact Lee Ferres at 831-5507 if any of the below pertain to you 1. Any student having problems or complaints of any nature, including Security, Housing etc. t6 them this summer. The Student Affairs Task Forces is trying to correct this problem for the future. 2. Anyone who did not get mail forwarded minority programs, they would not have two films for minority students, and they wouldn’t have coffeehouses that just appeal to a white audience. They are trying to give the appearance that they are catering to everyone, but the programming of UUAB is Lily-white. So, Mr. Lessoff, if you are concerned about this problem, I already know the ending of this movie because 1 have seen it before. Mr. Lessoff, 1 think that you have a lot of nerve saying that we are racist when your people are the world’s greatest exporters of racism. If UUAB wasn’t racist, you wouldn’t put up such a fight because you would have had your facts together. It seems to me that you are attacking the wrong people. The next time you get ready to call me, or someone who looks like me a racist, please look at yourself. The whole thing is nothing but a black and white issue, because you and the people who think like you don’t respect black men and women. If you had any respect, you—wouldn’t have thrown together a show that was 2/3 white and called it a minority concert. If you are here to serve all members of the University, your office staff doesn’t show it. I didn’t see any Arab students working at any of your events. UUAB is not the only organization that is racist the whole University is when it comes to Third World students. This kind of action will not be - Also - As usual, there have been a rash of false fire alarms at EHicott and other Campus Dorm Facilities. False alarms cause harm, they are dangerous and they are illegal. The Penalty is a fine- and/or 90 days in jail. There is no sensible reason why false alarms should be pulled. They are not funny and they do not respect the rights of other students. Please stop now, because if you are caught, you will pay the consequences. ********** Also there have been many thefts in the campus parking lots of C.B. Radios.

In previous years seniors were given preference in the distribution of gym classes, but now theft advantage has been increased. In order to take advantage of this program seniors must preregister between November 22 and December 10. After the seniors’ registration forms have been processed, all RAI courses will.be closed by the computer. All openings will be filled in January with permission of the instructor by exceptional (forced) registration. If students are closed out of a physical education class and still desire to take it, they must attend the first class meeting and speak with the instructor. Written permission from the instructor is necessary for exceptional registration. Seniors will be given preference of any available spaces. Yoga and skiing In order to accommodate the number of students requesting physical education classes, RAI has added several courses for the Spring semester. For the first time Yoga will be recognized as a physical education course rather than a college course and tennis will be divided into two sections to accommodate the growing interest in the sport. In addition, a number of off campus courses requiring a fee have been added for the Spring semester including Downhill Skiing at the beginner, intermediate and advanced technique freestyle levels. The course will be given at Kissing Bridge for eight weeks and consists of a one and one-half hour group lesson and two hours of practice skiing, once a week. Crosscountry Skiing will be taught at the Alpine Recreation Center in Orchard Park. The cost of both classes will be $34 per student with a slight additional charge for equipment rental. Beginning Canoeing, to be held at Wolf’s Canoe Rental and beginning and intermediate backpacking have also been included in next semester’s schedule. Prices for these courses have not yet been determined. The first meetings for all of these courses will be held in Clark Hall the week of January 17.

He was originally declared the victor by a margin of 3658 to 3657 votes over challenger .Carl Giglia, the Republican town clerk who ran in this race as a conservative independent. A recanvassing of the votes by the Erie County Board of Elections resulted an unofficial tally of 3663, tor each candidate.

Wlfile he would not confirm the reason for' the invalidation, a Courier Express spokesman reported that the ballot in question had been originally marked for Gibson and changed to Giglia. The Board of Elections Commissioners, equal number of Democrats and Republicans from composed Erie County, have the final word in certifying elections. Giglia has the option of appealing the decision in the courts. If the absentee ballot is redetermined to be “valid,” the tie would be resolved by the town board of supervisors.

If the defendant pleads guilty the Court proceeds to impose a sanction. If the.defendant pleads not guilty a hearing date is set. Although the court has the power to subpoena witnesses from the student body the rules of evidence are generally more relaxed than in a criminal or civil court.

Sanctions of the Court include warnings, disciplinary probation', restitution, suspension and expulsion. In the case of suspension or expulsion the Court makes a recommendation to the University President who delivers the final decision. Many of the cases heard by the Court could be heard in civil or criminal courts.

The Council 'received only $2,500 this year, compared to $5,000 last year. However, a $3,000 appropriation from the Student Association (SA) has not suffered. The overall cut resulted from state-wide retrenchment in educational funding in New York State. Council Director Rich Hoffman is optimistic, however. Last year the Council distributed 30 grants to undergraduate students for independent research studies, while this year it hopes to subsidize as many as 40. The Council, comprised of seven undergraduate students, is “unique in that it is run entirely by students.” The program is designed to fund research which under normal circdmstances might not be conducted due to the high costs involved, because students can’t afford the necessary equipment. Most of the grants are limited to one semester, but in special cases, 'may be extended Jo a full academic year.

Careers at all levels and functions of government are included in this definition, particularly important to the Foundation are students exhibiting potential leadership ability. One student will be chosen from this University to compete for the scholarship on a state-wide basis. Pre-law Advisor Jerome Fink said that, “Due to the largeness and complexity of this institution, it will be difficult to make a fair decision on a candidate for the scholarship.” On account of this problem, he is asking that any student who is both interested and qualified nominate himself for the scholarship. To quality, an individual must have a 3.5 academic average, presently be a sophmore at this University, and desire for a career in public service. Any interested student can nominate himself by making an appointment to see Fink, in Hayes Annex C, Room 6, before November 19th.

Kennedy’s remarks focused on the similarities and differences of against women’s struggles oppression in Communist and underdeveloped Third World capitalist nations, stressing that the women’s liberation movement did hot originate in the United States alone. The struggle to combat oppression was fought in countries throughout the world, long before the women’s liberation movement gained recognition as a socio-economic issue in the United States Kennedy went on to present literary readings to illustrate women’s struggles in several nations. She first offered a selection from Fragment from a Lost Diary a collection of short stories concerning the oppressive conditions faced by women of other nations. The story related how a Korean woman, discontent in her arranged marriage, sought revenge by burning down her husband’s village. While in prison, she expressed a desire to remain there, believing she would find happiness away from her husband. “We don’t often get a picture of women’s realization of oppression around the world. Consequently, we don’t have any idea about how these problems have been dealt with,” commented Kennedy. Communist nations, women’s oppression is a recognized fact dealt with through legal channels. In some countries, “husbands and wives must have an equal share in the housework. Should the husband fail to do this, the woman may make a formal complaint.” she remarked. In the People’s Republic of China, for example, child-care facilities, a major concern to working women with families, are provided for by the government. “However, homosexuality and sexual repression are not issues dealt with by the woman’s liberation movement in China,” said Kennedy. “There’s no desire , A woman’s right She. pointed that out to change husband/wife in Chinese society." Birth control and abortions are available on demand in most Communist countries. In fact, the Cuban government does extensive research in these areas and seeks relationships in to educate the public. “In effect,” Kennedy emphasized, “their government feels It complex. contains groups, so c ia 1 i s t -f eminist radial-lesbian groups and radical feminist groups.” that abortion is essentially population not to curb a boom, but simply because it is a woman’s right,” In conclusion, Kennedy claimed a direct relationship exists between the success of women’s rights movements and a nation’s political climate. In Communist China, all of the people have supposedly been liberated and women are no exception. In the U.S. we have no such outlook on women, but we can certainly look to the struggles taking place in China and other nations to learn how to reach our goals. We’re Integrated struggle In underdeveloped Third World countries, population control programs are made available through imperialistic (ruling) governments. The woman’s liberation movement in these countries do not differentiate between the “rights" and the “liberation” of women. “This is contrary to the movement in the only novices and have much to learn.” United States,” said Kennedy. “My view is that our women’s liberation movement is really two separate struggles: the women’s rights segment, which makes demands for equal pay, among other things. The women’s lib segment, on the other hand, is Kennedy emphasized the need to study the triumphs as well as of women’s disappointments liberation movements throughout the world so that a well organized, successful one can accomplish its goals in this dountry. , Third .\\N\\V%V World * i very Week i?

We have a lot of books about by Andrea Rudner Spectrum Staff Writer Latin America, Angola, South Africa, China books with a socialist orientation for anti-capitalistic people. So we’re three bookstores in one.” She hoped that Emma might change people’s perspectives on life. “When people buy a book and take it home you can hope it might change their lives, at least a little bit.” The Emma collective has come up with a number of possible projects, some of which, some, such as their small lending library ar(d their Children’s Story Hour have already been implemented on an experimental basis. The projects were designed with the double aim of increasing exposure to new ideas and bringing the community together. Other potential projects include selling women’s crafts on consignment, and presenting speakers and films, possibly in conjunction with the Fillmore-Leroy Community Center. — Pamela was comfortably seated at an old wooden desk. As she spoke she leafed through a book catalogue. “There’s just so much garbage that gets published.” Towards the front of the store two children were enjoying a game of catch. “Some of our neighbors are visiting us,” said Leslie as she watched them. The walls were abundantly covered with colorful posters. “Yes, it can be very inspiring just to work around this many posters,” commented Pamela. A man was engrossed in a book of poetry, while in the background the stereo played Holly Near. The store is called Emma, The Buffalo Women’s Bookstore and is located on the corner of Fillmore Avenue and Wakefield, six blocks from Main Street. The women mentioned are tow members of the twelve-woman collective that runs and is Emma. What sets it apart from any other bookstore in the Buffalo area is that Emma is a women’s bookstore. “First and foremost we serve women,” stressed Pamela. Most bookstores have a Women’s — — section, but the feeling among these women from the Emma collective was that these special sections are inadequate. Emma is attempting to meet the needs of women by offering unavailable literature that is both by and for women from Sexual Politics to science fiction, from short stories to autobiographies, from poetry to fix-it manuals, from gay literature to the Future of Motherhood. — Place for the community Just as important as adequate reading material, according to Emma, is a place for community people to go and sit and talk and “hang out.” “We epcourage people who don’t have the money to buy books to come here and hang out all day,” siad Leslie. There is a comfortable sitting section in one corner of Emma furnished with two large, soft armchairs, a couch, and a small coffeetable. “The kids don’t have places to go in this neighborhood, so they come out here,” said Pamela. “The neighbors dig it,” she said happily. “We try to' be three different bookstores,” Pamela continued. “We try to be a bookstore that serves women on the theoretical level. We’re also a Page six . The Spectrum Monday, 15 November 1976 . Men an issue Emma’s relationship to men is a sensitive area and frequently debated. The four women from Emma who were interviewed last week Pamela, Leslie, Kim and Rosemary were all eager to have — -r- men come into the store and read the books and browse. “There’s a lot they can learn here,” Kim said. However, the response to the question, “Can men join the collective?” was a definitive “no way.” “It is a women's collective,” said Kim. Pamela explained, saying, “We’re strong believers in the autonomous women’s movement.” ‘High on being here’ Giggling and shrieking 'couhT'be heard from outside as a woman and two children passed by Emma, the pay phone in the bookstore rang and a woman, saying “It’s for me,” rose to answer it. In spite of the problems the women encounter they feel that being in the collective is well worth it and satisfying. Says Pamela: “There’s a lot of shit-work, shoving pieces of paper around, but it’s a lot of fun to-work around here.” Rosemary related how she had found Emma by chance. “I happened to find the place and 1 loved it. It’s just the place I wanted to be. I asked if I could join the collective and be a part of it.” “I get so high on being here,” Leslie added. “The women here are real wonderful. And the people that some in are real wonderful.” As an established bookstore, Emma has the need, and the opportunity to make connections with feminist presses, bookstores and organizations throughout the United States. Being in communication with these women from all over the country is one of the most exciting aspects of working at Emma. Leslie related how Big Mama Rag, a Colorado women’s periodical had printed a small piece on Emma. “They’re so far away, and they know about us!” she said, adding “Seeing those types of connections, it makes me feel things are getting better and the movement is growing. It feels great. It gives us the energy to continue.” Emma attacked The Big Mama Rag article the women referred to was written about a physical attack made on Emma this summer. At 4 a.m., Wednesday, August 25th, the front plate glass window of Emma was smashed by two bricks. The bricks were followed by jars and plastic bags of yellow paint, which spattered the plants, furniture, books and walls behind the windows. The women in the Emma collective were stunned and angry. They printed a leaflet describing the incident and their reaction to it. The store is coincidentally located not far from where there used to be a White Power bookstore. The attack was “premeditated, pre-planned and carefully executed. It was not just kids this time.” To Kim the attack on Emma was not arbitrary vandalism. “We were pretty upset about it. It implied that they didn’t want us to be here. They don’t like what we mean,” The leaflet described the attack as “an attack on the entire community.” The women at Emma and their neighbors believe that this act was an attempt to scare them away from their neighborhood and prevent them from accomplishing the goals the Emma collective has set for itself. The leaflet responded in no uncertain terms to the unknown vandals. “We will not be intimidated. If the idea of women working together can create such fear that people feel they have to try to stop us, they should know that we will not be stopped.” As an indirect result of this vandalism, Buffalo’s women’s bookstore now has a striking mural in the space previously occupied by the pane of glass. A Women’s Studies class, aptly entitled Art for Social Change, collectively painted a colorful mural depicting people of all ages dancing, hands joined together, in a circle. A bright orange sun shines down upon them and the green grass at their feet is dotted with flowers. Pamela also mentioned a minor rip-off and theft problem, but a child-printed sign that admonishes "No running in the store and no stealing” should help solve that. Vandalism and rip-offs are not the only problems. “From the organized women’s movement here we haven’t gotten as much support as we expected. It’s disappointing,” reflected Pamela, “but on the other hand, it's exciting in that most of our support is from community people people who haven’t ever been involved in women’s liberation. They come in here and get tuned in.” — Mobile beginnings Emma began almost a year ago in December 1975, when Minday, Cheryl and Pamela felt a need for a women’s bookstore. Pamela explained. “I �moved up here two years ago to work on the Attica campaign and I couldn’t find any good bookstores, and I’m a bookworm. So we opened a bookstore.” Two of the women were teaching in Women’s Studies College at the time and so were able, in ordering books for their classes, to get meny books on consignment. “We started with very little money,” said Pamela. Instead of immediately oepning a storefront, the three women decided to create a mobile unit that would travel to different events in the Buffalo area selling books and doing outreach. Pamela viewed it as a way of “testing the market” to determine how much response and support they would receive. “It was very difficult then, and it still is,” said Leslie. “It’s a real learning process. We’re all learning about ordering and finances. We’re each trying to bring what we do best here.” Since the women were unsure of which neighborhood to settle in permanently, the mobile unit gave them the opportunity to become familiar with different areas in Buffalo and choose one in which to locate. ‘They can get here’ They chose the Fillmore-Leroy nieghborhood because it was a “lively, centrally located, family neighborhood.” People from this University often wonder why Emma chose to locate to far from the school. Kim answered the question firmly. “The people from the University can get here. They have money, they have cars. They can come. The people here don’t have money.” “Why did they choose the name Emma?” Smiling, the women said Emma is a literary figure or a fictional character, like Madame Bovary by Gustave Flaubert and Emma by Jane Austen. “It’s also a beautiful woman’s name,” added one woman. Another mentioned Emma Goldman, an American anarchist well known around the turn of the century. When the store opened it had just one table of books. It grew slowly and now is well stocked, although the selection could and will be expanded. The mobile unit was not eliminated altogether, even when the Emma collective opened their storefront in May of this year. It still travels to approximately two events each month, increasing contact with the general public. None of the women who work in the collective get paid. Most of these have other jobs and other responsibilities and as a result can only contribute between two and six hours per week. “It takes a lot to keep a bookstore running smoothly,” said Pamela. She said an attempt was being made to save enough money for one or two salaried positions. Emma’s around the world? In praising collective organization as opposed to a hierarchical structure Pamela said enthusiastically, “One of the things we like best is to give people a chance to do what they’ve never done before. Now we have twelve people who know how to run a bookstore. They’ll be able to go to other cities and open other Emma' s.” The women of Emma are unafraid to experiment with projects not usually undertaken in traditional bookstores. The Children’s Story Hour always attracts a few excited young listeners. Emma also encourages visits from women who do any kind of crafts; pottery, jewelry, macrame, leatherwork, decorative crafts, and more, to visit Emma. Emma will take the crafts on consignment, exhibit and try to sell them. The project will begin in time for the holiday season, and if successful will continue indefinitely. The lending library, although small and unpublicized, is succeeding fairly well. And the bulletin board hanging in the sitting section is available to anyone. Store hours are Tuesday to Saturday 12 to 7, Thursday and Friday until 8.

Page seven �I EditPrial % Absentee ballot fiasco The statewide absentee balloting disaster that has prompted the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) to file suit today against the New York State Board of Elections will hopefully lead to several court-directed reforms. because the The reforms must be accomplished cherishes its which alternative is repugnant in any country the continued disenfranchisement of a democracy: substantial number of eligible voters. It is not altogether surprising that the great majority of voters who require absentee ballots are students attending colleges and universities away from their homes. They were denied their right to vote in large numbers between 20,000 because the county and 100,000, according to NYPIRG Boards of Elections either returned the absentee ballots too late or failed to return them at all. As most of the out-of-town students at this University are from the New York Metropolitan area, most of the difficulties encountered were with the Board of Elections in Kings (Brooklyn), Queens, and Nassau Counties. But students involved in voter registration drives at this University indicated there were problems with absentee ballots in almost every county in the state. County Boards of Elections have also been criticized by student leaders in the weeks following the election for alleged improper handling of voter registration forms. It appears that smaller foul-ups by the students in the largely-successful voter registration drive were exacerbated by the problems at the Boards of Elections. The most and the one most often potentially damaging charge made is that student voter directed at the Erie County Board registration forms were summarily rejected, especially in the case of dormitory students. It was also charged that requested registration forms were never sent out. If the various charges are found true, then there have been gross violations of the current election law, which requires, among other things, absentee ballots be mailed out early enough so that voters can complete and return them to home districts before the deadline, and registration forms "shall be freely and widely available." There are two most frequently cited reasons for the failures by the Boards of Elections. The first is that understaffed Boards were swamped with unexpected work as an outcome of the successful student voter registration ton* To as - — — drives. The second, and more insidious reason, is that election laws are intentionally complicated and drawn up from partisan political motivations, to disenfranchise as many as Against military ads Mr. Siggelkow says that a Marine recruitment ad is not “pornographic,” but I disagree. After all, what utterly ignoring the Richard A. Siggelkow, a vice president of the could be more obscene? In University, writes (Spectrum Nov. 10) that The personal and global violence perpetrated by Marines, Mr. Siggelkow misses Spectrum should not bar paid advertisements placed institutions like the the point. For the same reason I think much of the by the U.S. Marine Corps. In taking this position he says that he has “no desire to discuss the relative commentary on the stabbing death of St. John’s merits of our military establishment.” Mr. Siggelkow student Fitzgerald misses the point. A St. John’s spokeperson was quoted in the apparently believes that employment by the Marines New York Times as saying that the killing of is just another “professional opportunity.” These are amazing statements. Are we to believe Fitzgerald was probably the result “of too much zeal that the “relative merits” of the Marine Corps on the part of the students in attempting to perfect their military tactical skills.” Here again is another program are irrelevant here? Surely, nothing could statement.

NYPIRG's suit is asking that New York State laws be changed to allow students to register in the voting districts in which they attend school, that mail registration forms be made readily available to students in any school receiving state aid, and that statutes be amended to require Election Boards to mail registration forms in large quantities to all who request them.

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. Republication of any matter herein without express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief Page eight . The Spectrum . Monday, 15 November 1976 To the Editor. to the conclusion that the Marines (with reference to which advertising, Dr. Siggelkow wrote his letter) , This is in response to a letter by Dr. Richard Siggelkow, in defense of The Spectrum and its policy which prohibits military advertising in its pages. Though 1 am not knowledgeable that Dr. Siggelkow Is a political conservative, his arguments in opposing The Spectrum ban on military advertising hold much in common with conservative arguments could soon be instrumental in wars on or about Panama, southern Africa, and in the Middle East. The resulting conflagration would most likely result in the mass killing of the civilian populations in these areas, only to, respectively, retain our imperialist control over the Panama Canal; support apatheid in southern Africa; and defend our oil interests in the Middle East. The resulting cost to world humanity, as well as American lives and economic well-being, is an issue, Dr. Siggelkow. The Spectrum, in permitting military advertising in its pages would be supplying direct material aid to the apparatus that would wreak this havoc. Any discussion of The Spectrum’s advertising policy, therefore, must allow the “relative merits of our military establishment” to play a central role. The point is that The Spectrum must always, as with Nazi ads urging the elimination of all blacks from America, take into account the character of the advertiser, and the effect of his advertising, in deciding if it should go into the paper. In addition, it must be remembered that other factors entered into The Spectrum's decision: that Students have traditionally opposed U.S, military activities; that there exist many other student periodical outlets for the military to use; that income from military advertising is very small, and would not significantly increase student subsidies to the paper. In conclusion, I agree with Dr. Siggelkow that The Spectrum should make clear to the student body both its advertising policy, and its reasons for it. All concerned parties will be the better for such a clarification. on other issues. Chief among these is the attempt to avoid the specific character of military advertising, and instead, leap to an attack on The Spectrum's “censorship” of “different points of view” and calling it a violation of the First Amendment. It is my sincere hope that' Dr. Siggelkow is not a man so politically unsophisticated that he would criticize The Spectrum for any restrictive advertising policies, based on the concept that such restrictions would be censorship. Specifically, I hope Dr. Siggelkow would agree that racist advertising placed by, for example, the National Socialist White People’s Party (U.S. Nazi’s), or by the Ku Klux Klan, should not be permitted to appear in any student periodical. This should be true not only because it would be offensive to segments of the University community, but primarily because racists must not be allowed public forums to spread their ideas which have in the past led to the extermination of whole peoples. With regard to military advertising, Dr. Siggelkow has “no desire to discuss the relative merits of our military establishment.” This is natural, for herein lies a crucial reason for denying the military this particular advertising forum. Any discussion of the military could easily lead K. Gilbert �Women's Night praised To the Editor. Hooray for women!

'on-professional reporting o the Editor. i Normally I don’t care to make public iccusations but I’m afraid I’ve had my fill. The irticle appearing in the Wednesday,. November 3rd ssue of The,Spectrum about the Student Affairs 'ask Force was misleading and quite inaccurate. The iroblem started with the headline. The Student tffairs Task Force planned on looking at any abuses y any organization, not only SA. This includes tubs as well as student governments. The second error is where jt was stated that no me in the higher eschelons of SA are in the Task •orce. Thp is quite untrue! I am in the Task Force as happen to be Student Affairs Director and Chairman of the Task Force. While these may not eem like major problems, I view them as jroblematic. The statements are misleading and I |eel that the credibility of the Task Force was at take. An apology is also owed to IRC for any made toward them. negations that were Jnfortunately, one of our Task Force Senators eems unable to control his mouth and use some ommon sense and when he “spilled the beans” to RC he blew the context of what was said. This had o do with the pocketing of money. IRC has not lone anything illegal to my knowledge and I am orry if it was inferred. It seems that these problems are a result of poor ■eporting rather than the editing process, as had been suggested to me. A very interesting situation occurred and I would like to relate it to you as it may give you an idea why problems in articles arise. I was at my home when a reporter from The Spectrum called to ask me about the student directory, which was my project (more about that later). In the middle of an explanation as to why the directory only cost $600 to mail instead of the ,$900, the reporter hung up on me. I do not consider that to be responsible reporting. The Spectrum, now aware of a student paper and grated professionalism is supposed to be strived for, but when reporters hang up in the middle of intepdews, I question that professionalism. I trust the editors of The Spectrum, now. aware of .the situation, will try to correct it. Things like this degrade a newspaper and I don’t think it should continue. I have also been Now to brighter topics receiving many calls about the student directory. 1. The housing error was a computer error. The computer left out the first address on the list and moved all subsequent addresses up one name. Therefore, many (approx. 2200) housing students have wrong addresses. Most phone numbers are .. printing press at the Service in Denver Press College broke down last week. The Spectrum was on its own and had nothing much to say. There’s no excuse when a student newspaper comes up mute. The college press has atrophied in the past few years as the students went inside either to study or stone-out full time, and the student movement came to an end. But this specifically isn’t my concern. I’m tired of generational my own and comparison, tendency to mourn for my activist predecessors and to idealize their glory. My lifestyle is planted firmly in the 1970’s. The goings on in the world continue to amaze me; the goings on outside my door 1 could care less about. I sail from apathy to tedium, from listlessness to monotony. I hate it and 1 love it; affluence without the risk of commitment.

Norton Hall is dominated by (attorneys, professional's accountants, salaried employees and secretaries) who more often than not take the decision making initiative away from students, who too often are unprepared, disorganized and insecure. The society among these Norton Hall employees is self-protecting and The To the Editor. Between watching Star Trek and reading Marvel comics, I don’t have much time for writing and other intellectual pursuits, but your editorial (Wednesday, November 10) inspired me to put down my copy of Hulk, and take the time to express my outrage. •When did it become a crime to look back and reflect on our childhood? I’m sure most will agree that, indeed, those were the best years of our lives. Is it so wrong to try to recapture the very things which gave us so much pleasure? Personally, it both bores and tires me to “stare reality in the face” all the time. There is a time and a place for everything, and that includes an occasional ride on the “Enterprise.” . accurate though. 2. If your name did not appear or if wrong, you either checked no to the question of having your name in a student directory on the data forms filled out when registering, or if your address was wrong on your ID card, it means it is wrong on the computer and would require an update form to correct it. Dorm students addresses can still be 3. obtained by calling the area desks of either dorm. As a project we consider the directory a success. After all, we have one now and we didn’t before. Anyone who did not get a directory can pick one up by stopping in 205 Norton, 9-5 Monday-Friday.

I have an answer to the question posed in Wednesday’s editorial “Where are the intellectuals?” They are in the classrooms by day and the libraries by night. We are intellectuals for a greater part of our life at this University. Sometimes we tire of writing papers, or reading textbooks, and we would like to relax and forget that we are intellectual creatures. At those times, we enjoy going to a William Shatner lecture, reading a Marvel comic book, partying, oi; even drinking beer. We are not academic robots, programmed only to emit free radical substitution mechanisms or the philosophy of Sartre. We have emotional and social needs that are just as important as our intellectual needs (if not more so). We spend enough time as intellectual personae in our classes. Sometimes we like to be Captain Kirk instead of Mister Spock.

I’m riven with guilt: the life 1 describe to my parents is a sanitized fantasy. My college career is a zany, chaotic adventure which adds up to very little, and depressingly is therefore unsatisfying. Mainly, I’m moved by great ideas, good food, nice people. It’s rare I ever do anything in depth, move in and out of coldly. I’m people’s lives always looking for a way out. But there’s no consolation in escape.

This match was indeed featuring two of the Bulls’ all-time premier wrestlers.

The Alumni, whose roster spanned the past ten seasons, featured numerous former Bulls who have excelled in wrestling for Buffalo. However, age seems to have caught up with most of the Alumni, as the Bulls’ varsity won 28-17. The opening match featured the varsity’s Tony Oliveri and the alumnus Bob Veres ’72. Veres was giving Oliveri some trouble in the early going, but was overwhelmed in the third period when the younger Bull made a nice move to pin the graduate. But the alumni struck back quickly. Freshman Steve Tripodi had his hands full against Mike Watson ’69, who still works out and wrestles. In this match, Watson proved too much for Tripodi, as he outscored the younger Bull 12-1. not for the first time. Pfeifer had wrestled Sams two years ago when he was a freshman, and apparently he hadn’t forgotten some of Sams’ moves as the younger , Bull conquered the elder Bull 4-2. After the match, Sams said of Pfeifer, “He’s a tough kid, who's gotten a lot stronger; if he gets in gobd shape and has a good attitude he’ll have a super year.” Runaway At the end of the first period there was no score. In the second, Martineck took the advantage 4-2 and Lawson was fortunate that time ran out, for Martineck almost pinned the former Bull. But the final period saw Martineck go wild. His quickness combined with Lawson’s exhaustion, enabled Martineck to win 9-2. A1 After the alumni’s the John vdrsity’s and Charpentier Hughes wrestled to a 4-4 tie, freshman Doug Tingue faced one of Buffalo’s best in alumni Bill Jacoutot ’74. Jacoutot, who still continues to work out, had a har; time but won the match 5-3.

Bell looked up to the crowd with his tongue hanging out and asked, “What am I doing here?” The alumni’s final victory of the afternoon was awarded to Ed Hamilton '74.

Putting up a Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor What would happen if a sportswriter were sent to cover a news story like he would cover a sporting event? For example, the goings-on of a well known campus Organization might be "reported like this: The University of Buffalo Student Association (SA), following last year’s 1-27 season, is ready to open their fall campaign and team captain Steve “Curly” Spiegel expects them to be much more effective this year.' The only problem so far this year, according to Spiegel, has been injuries. The team’s top hack, Steve Schwartz, has already been sidelined. It seems his mouth has become stuck in the “On” position, and when Schwartz runs put of things to say, his mouth keeps going, making him sound incoherent most of the time. Lee Penes, or L.P. as he is commonly known, also is not in top form after a band of thugs roughed him up and held him captive in their house for several days so that his address would coincide with the one listed for him in the student directory. The rest of the team is in top shape, and since their main adversary. Robert Ketter, is sitting this season out, a winning record may be in the offing. “I think our defense is as strong as anyone’s” said Spiegel. "What we have to do more of is start attacking people.” In the current North American Philharmonics League Standings, the Boston Philharmonics was leading Buffalo by three symphonies and a piano solo, so tonight’s concert could be an important one. The Philharmonica is one of America’s oldest spectators sports, and always draws a large crowd, so it seems strange that the rules of Philharmonica are so obscure. The object for the'players is to keep up with the conductor, who, naturally, is supplied by the opposing team. The orchestra leader tries to confuse the players by rapidly changing tempo, or slowing down at moments when the band would least expect it. One point is awarded if the conductor confuses the band during a solo, two points during a concerto and four points during a symphony. Perhaps one of the reasons that other sports, like basketball or football have gained in popularity at Philharmonica’s expense, is that the players are so well trained that an enormous number of scoreless ties result. Another possibility is that the spectators are not allowed to cheer when the orchestra can’t keep up with the conductor. Culinary delights An article like that could set music back two hundred years. Lastly, a sportswriter could review a restaurant so that no one wtmld ever eat there again. For example: The steak at Joe’s Deli is absolutely scrumptious. It was as tender as a deflated basketball Destroying the Philharmonic and as yummy as the smell of victory that one finds Just think what would happen if a sportswriter in a locker room after the game. were sent to review a concert by the Buffalo Fortunately for .the rest of the world Philharmonic.

In the final match of the afternoon, the Bulls’ Tim Rock easily handled Dan Burr T)8 by the score of 5-0. Burr was also the oldest competing alumnus. The Alumni Wrestling Meet was more than just Buffalo’s former stars facing the Bulls of today. “This is a great socialization process,” Jacoutot said. “Besides, you can make believe you’re the guy you once were.” For Watson, he looks forward to the meet with me, the meet “For anticipation. me the chance to see some gives old faces and to wrestle again. I also like to keep up and see how the new team does.” SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS THANKSGIVING AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

From German: Schlag: a "blow"; perhaps the Yiddish means 1. A merchandise that has been “knocked around. shoddy, cheaply made article. “It’s a*piece of shlock." “Where did you buy that? In a shlock-house?” 2. A defective or fake article; an object one was cheated over. “That watch will never keep time. It's shlock merchandise." shlock-house: A store that sells cheap, distressed, defective, “fire sale” articles. A gyp joint. Leo Rosten, The Joys of Yiddish ” I am a colonial historian, doing research on the American Revolution. This is not just a job with me: it is my central passion. How many of us are lucky enough to see the central passion of our creative lives translated into the Disney version, and for sale, in this translation, in every supermarket, and broadcast in every medium? Bicentennial Schlock offered me a one-in-a-lifetime chance to see cartoon versions of something I expect to be involved with for the rest of my life. And I had to try to make sense of the occasion for this stuff: the commemoration of the American Revolution. When I prepared my undergraduate American Studies course for the spring of 1976, the readings were primarily about the American Revolution, but 1 had decided to see, together with the students, what we made of the Bicentennial as well; to look at the conflicting versions of America’s past, present and future presented by the Bicentennial, and to relate them to the various and conflicting definitions of America-to-be that were present at the nation’s beginning. There is plenty to read about the Revolution, but we had to catch the Bicentennial as it went by: through direct experience, the mass media, and the publications of groups hawking conservative, liberal and radical Bicentennials. I contributed reports to the class on a historian’s travels and involvements in Bicentennial committees, lectures and symposia. My syallbus asked students to give short ungraded oral reports on the Bicentennial, in„which they would not only present “the raw data ... but also attempt Your interpretation to analyze, explain and interpret . should take into account the possibility that others, with views different from your own, might see your data differently. Why is your interpretation better?” Finally, I invited them to bring in items of Bicentennial Schlock for a tentatively planned exhibit and asked them, as with their reports, to try to analyze and make sense of it. v .. No definition 1 gave students no definition of Bicentennial Schlock other than that items should be “inexpensive; free, or If perhaps in the area of a dollar maximum price cheapness is one of our criteria,” the syllabus continued, “the exhibit will come closer to reflecting the Inescapable Bicentennial, the one that falls on us all like rain, rather than an exotic and expensive Bicentennial: our schlock must be real schlock, available schlock, cheap schlock.” Cheapness was also important since, as I told them, “you will not get your contributions back.” (If I hadn’t suggested other motives above, you might almost think that this was some Bicentennial freak’s crazed invention to feed his addiction under the guise of trendy research. And who knows?) Although no credit was attached to the exhibition part of the course, students responded with the kind of enthusiasm that would make a Bicentennial freak’s eyeballs glow. Week after week, I carried this stuff, in both ... _ � ' from the classroom to my office, stopping off at a student cafeteria to have a brownie put in my mouth, and never really asked myself whether, doing this, I looked like a normal person. Pretty soon the office began to get crowded and, as I moved toward a rudimentary categorization, the categories filled up the chairs. A second front opened when the media arrived. Just as Andy Warhol says, eventually everybody in the world will be famous for 15 minutes. The UP1 photographer’s next assignment on the day he took my picture was Super Joe Einhorn, driving his motorcycle over a dozen buses. After a while, I began to say no to interviews: I hadn't figured out what the stuff meant, and I felt like a fake. But by the time 1 cut off the interviews, 1 had become Bicentennial Schlock, my picture printed across the country. Wherever I went, they shouted, “Schlock Czar,” “Schlock Czar.” People called me up to inquire about franchises. An omelet was named after ifie in San Jose. Handsome gentelmen invited me to come up and see their collections. And from all over the country Granada Hills and Oakland, California; Jewett, Ohio; Providence, Newark, Muncie, New Haven even people began to send and me pictures of myself from their local newspapers more schlock. Toilet paper, sanibags. condoms and ginger ale bottles came through (he mail, and schlockfans began to call me up late at night to compare collections. A spirit of community not unlike the fellowship ot CB infused my otherwise solitary life. Fellow historians sent met things - — — — too. Whut does Bicentennial Schlock mean? I don't exactly know. I find this deeply embarrassing. I have always stood up against those druggy and mysticalMcLuhanesque types who think that cutesy juxtaposition is analysis enough. I shout, “Analysis, analysis: no data speaks tor itself!” And yet, after all this, I don’t exactly know what Bicentennial Schlock means. Will you take as an excuse the idea that this is only a kind of hobby, not my real work? Still, I hate to be caught not thinking like a social scientist. Try this one: “more research is needed.” ITs true. Actually, the students did do something like research. As we formulated and refined pur explanations, they corresponded with giant corporations and talked to salespeople and ad people; one of them even called up my dry cleaner to find out why my trousers came back in a Bicentennial bag. From work like this, some very tentative generalizations emerged: Nobody asked 1 Nobody asked for Bicentennial Schlock, and nobody will take responsibility for it. Salespeople were embarrassed and defensive: “It just came through that way.” It came down from above inexplicably. Not exactly inexplicably. It’s my impression that a major force in the creation of Bicentennial Schlock has been the anxiety of sellers, fearful of being caught with their red, white and blue pants down; fearful that their competitor, the one with the Bicentennial packaging, would sell all the peanut butter. Most of it is packaging, just this year's wrapping. 2. No one takes it seriously; nobody was taken in. This may seem trivial and Obvious, but it is important. Many studies of popular culture tend to assume simplistically that what comes down in this way is a direct reflection of popular “needs” and desires. Thus we read the popular mood from the best-seller list, or we hear the longings of teenagers in the lyrics of popular music. We assume that the comics express the innermost yearnings of their readers, or we reveal the contents of the popu^r mind based on our study of TV soap operas. All this seems hip and populist, but it is immensely condescending: it observes people making purchases within the very limited range of manufactured culture and assumes that they are fully buying; it ignores popular rejection and reshaping, and by obscuring “popular culture,” it also turns us away from much that is rich in genuinely popularly created culture. Indeed, Bicentennial Schlotfk is not popular culture. Like so much else that we think of as “popular culture,” it was neither popularly created nor popularly adopted. (It might have become popular culture to the extent that people adapted it: collectively remade it, actively placed it in their lives. I find very little evidence that this was done, except by a few relatively isolated Bicentennial freaks, but I may be wrong.) It floated down from above, and responded to no popular longing to celebrate the Bicentennial. This is not to deny that there was a popular longing to celebrate. The tragedy of the Bicentennial has been that there was such a longing, but the Bicentennial provided very few vehicles adequate for its expression. If Bicentennial Schlock was not popluar culture, that does not mean that it had no effect on what people thought. Just as those years of watching the killing in Vietnam in living color on Walter Cronkite had to deaden our -responses, so the piles of Bicentennial Schlock had to have some impact. Bicentennial Schlock was, in a sense, the Watergate of patriotism; a healthy demystification which makes us wisely cynical and distrustful of many things that we should have been distrustful of before. The Bicentennial made American history look ridiculous, and there is which deserves much in our history certainly reconsideration in more critical fashion. Watergate exposed the foolishness of the romance of liberal intellectuals (many historians included) with strong men. Perhaps the Bicentennial will do the same for our perception of strong men in the American past: the whole mac/io-military complex, present from the very beginning, atrocities committed in the name of patriotism, the continuing horrors of racism and sexism. After a long year of American history Disneyfied and cartoonified, historians may have a harder time selling an overly deferential view of some of the heroes of our past. But there is much in the American past that we have reason to want to commemorate and celebrate: egalitarian values (though unfulfilled); a scorn of class distinctions; a distrust of authority; a utopian streak, which expresses as we itself sometimes in our politics, and, sometimes who live in the “burned over district” of Western New York know in recurring waves of people striving toward perfection. Many of us who are ambivalent about the American heritage were nonetheless prepared to be'moved by the Bicentennial. But this stuff kills genuine sentiment, and an urge to celebrate was shattered by the inadequacy of most of the vehicles around. There were some exceptions to this poverty of symbolism, but not in the world of Bicentennial Schlock. And since Schlock was the Bicentennial’s most pervasive manifestation and perhaps its most enduring heritage, it almost seems, emotionally speaking, as if there were no Bicentennial at all. — - Jesse l.entisch, a historian, teaches in the American Studies Program at this University. He is a member of the American Historical Association’s Committee on the Commemoration of the American Revolution Bicentennial. �NYPIRG focuses on public problems by David Ziffer Spectrum Staff Writer The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) is currently conducting various projects involving issues of interest to the general public. While the Buffalo office of NYPIRG is funded by mandatory student fees, the majority of the work at NYPIRG is done by volunteers, most of whom are students. N.YPIRG was formed in 1971 by Ralph Nader and his associate, current NYPIRG Director Donald Ross, for the purpose of acting in the public interest. Through NYPIRG, students have the opportunity to study real-world problems in which they have an interest, and help introduce corrective legislation concerning these problems. NYPIRG also offers students credit-bearing internships in Albany, Buffalo and on the road. NYPIRG focuses its attention on four general areas of public interest: energy, consumer protection, social justice and fiscal responsibility (i.e. tax reform). Within each of these categories, specific HAVE TO ALWAYS DO THIS AT M STATION Y'AltGOT A OWKCW 1t) GOTO?' AT M STA1T0N? PO , Oliphant vs. thePresident-elect tasks are formulated and researched. Buffalo NYPIRG Chairperson Paul Maggiotto said NYPtRG is currently investigating Educational Testing Service (ETS). “No one student must adhere to ETS controls ETS,” said Maggiotop, “but regulations. ETS is supposedly a non-profit organization but they gross around $50 million a year.” According to NYPIRG literature, ETS is responsible to no one, yet it controls the lives of millions, operating out of plush, multi-million dollar facilities in New Jersey. NYPIRG questions the validity of ETS tests and is collecting complaints about the company, mostly concerning late score delivery and losses of student records. These complaints will be brought before the State Legislature in an attempt to generate legislation controlling the power of ETS in New York State. Funeral project Buffalo NYPIRG Energy Project Coordinator Cathy Connolly said that NYPIRG is currently investigating alternative energy conversion methods. NYPIRG generally opposes the use of nuclear power, choosing instead to research more environmentally compatible methods including wind and solar power. Tests of such systems will be performed on scaled-down system models. NYPIRG members hope to, display the models at local expositions (i.e. the Allentown Festival). Connolly said NYPIRG is also investigating the decommissioning (disassembly) of nuclear reactors. The investigation involves research concerning the cost and danger of this process. The Funeral Project is another study being conducted by NYPIRG. NYPIRG is investigating charges that New York Stale funeral directors are ripping off their clientele. NYPIRG members are surveying funeral directors and relatives of the recently deceased in an effort to determine just how much money changes hands. Connolly said directors are elusive and often refuse to divulge prices, even to prospective customers. “Funerals are the third largest expense that people have,” said staff member Marvin Resnikoff. NYPIRG hopes to introduce corrective legislation at the next session of the Legislature. r iSi 1 The New 1 Century mm Theatre Rufflk) > I TONIGHT at 7:00 pm i QFM-97 & Harvey & Corky present ' A wild spoof of the great old horror movies of the past with a hard-driving rock score, a chorus of the bizarre 10% OFF WITH THIS AD Open 7 days a week Chinese Food Only) 7:00 am 12 Midnight 47 WALNUT STREET, FORT ERIE both a mad transvestite.

This is a statewide project designed to , investigate the handling of institutionalized children. According to NYPIRG, these children are incarcerated under unimaginably despicable conditions. Connolly said the results of the investigation will include a published report, press releases and proposed legislation. Niagara-Mohawk Power Corporation has also fallen under the organization’s investigative eye. NYPIRG staff members are attending utility rate-increase hearings. According to Connolly, Niagara-Mohawk is attempting to buy power from a nuclear plant in Sterling, N.Y. This purchase would result in a rate increase for customers. Niagara-Mohawk is eager to make such purchases because the Public Service Commission guarantees the company a 9 percent profit on any such investment, Connolly said. NYPIRG questions this proposed purchase in view of the fact that Niagara-Mohawk owns idle hydroelectric plants. NYPIRG is also involved in a variety of other projects including marijuana reform, Earth Week, the construction of bikeways in the Buffalo area, voter registration, switching to use of returnable containers, and the investigation of fraudulent auto rpair shops. Students interested in volunteer work or credit-bearing NYPIRG programs should call 831-2715 for more information. �Puffer grove to be erected After the Buffalo winter has passed, do not be surprised to see the addition of a floral garden on the Amherst Campus. ’ The site of this lovely new attraction will be the intersection of Campus Boulevard and the Rensch Entrance at Governors in the open acreage surrounding the Residence hall, i The memorial grove is in honor of former Vice Chancellor for Business Affairs Claude Puffer. Although not exactly a household name among students at the University, Puffer was once one of the three most important men serving as the backbone of the University along with Chancellor Clifford Furnas and Chancellor Capen, according to Vice President for Facilities Planning John Telferl A memorial fund established by Mrs. Puner upon her husband’s death is financing the undertaking. The project hds elicited numerous private contributions and is now well underway. The trees will be planted after the first frost supplemented by spring bulbs and daffodils. Actual construction of the memorial will be engineered by the same landscaper that has molded much of the Amherst Campus terrain. According to A. Westley Roland, Directo'r of University Relations, the memorial grove will “beautify the caippus and add dimension to the surroundings.” The construction itself will comprise about two or three acres, however, a large portion of the lawn will remain intact. Private resources “The foliage and flowers that we will plant will just augment the already existing shrubbery and plants. There will be a seeding area for meditation too,” said Telfer. The exact cost of the project is unknown at present, but it will probably hover around a few thousand dollars. All monies are originating from private resources, except for the labor cost, which will be state subsidized. Construction workers and Facilities Planning have started to remove topsoil for the plants and by springtime they should be in full bloom. A walkway will eventually border the garden. lioswell Park Current events stressed Cancer research continues ThirdWorldWeek begins Wednesday by Susan Schacter Staff Writer Spectrum Roswell Park Institute was the world’s first laboratory dedicated to the study of the causes, nature, mortality rate and the treatment of cancer. It was founded by Dr. Roswell Park, a professor of surgery at this University, and began as three small rooms in the Buffalo Medical School. Since then it has developed into a multi-million dollar facility, encompassing a large hospital and numerous cancer research laboratories. once estimated that Park within five years of its founding, a cure for v cancer would be discovered. Seventy years later, cancer’s cure remains a mystery, as Biologist James D. Watson pointed out here this week, despite much progress that has been made in determining its possible causes and treatments. Two of Roswell Park’s most recent experiments include a probe of cancer’s development through the study of the cell-cycle, and the possible use of interferon treatments on cancer patients. Cell cycle observation Dr. Charles Helmstetter of the experimental biology department is experimenting with controlling cell division by observing its cycle. Cancer occurs when cells divide uncontrollably, either by increasing their rate or by continuing after normal cellular division should have stopped. Abnormal cellular cjivision creates tumors and consume nutrients essential t6r other' parts of the body. In each cell is a mechanism which signals when the cell should perform each of its cycle’s functions, including mitosis (cell division), (II (a period of minimal activity), DNA synthesis. G2 period), and (another resting finally GO, at which there is no . further division. Helmstetter is seeking the reason why the signal is different in cancerous cells, and how and at what stages a signal mechanism malfunctions. Mutant cell inhibitor Helmstetter selects a mutant cell which, when exposed to cool temperatures, maintains a normal cycle. When the temperature is raised at certain stages of cell division, the cycle progresses normally, whil£" at other stages. An extensive program of distinguished speakers, panel discussions, next week from Wednesday .through Sunday. him and theater highlight Third World Week here, The program’s inaugural lecture will be delivered by Dr. Eqbal Ahmed of the Institute for Policy Studies in Washington, Wednesday at 7;30 p.m. in the Fillmore Room in Norton Hall. Third World Week, organized by the Third World Student Association, brings a series of experts who are mostly active in support of Third World movements, and who will speak on issues currently affecting areas around the world. The speakers will touch on events taking place in Africa, China, Lebanon. Vietnam, and South America. Discussions will also be held on Puerto Rico, the United Nations, American Indians and the roles of women in third world movements. The two plays to be performed by the Little Flags Theater Collective are Fans/ien, based on the book by William Hinton, and Tunis, about Cuba and South America. All speakers are free.

Spectrum Public control over, the nuclear power industry was dealt a severe if tentative setback in last week’s 'national elections when nuclear safety resolutions in six states went down to defeat. By across the board two to.one margins, plebiscites in Arizona, Colorado, Ohio, Montana, Washington State and reputedly environment conscious Oregon were overwhelmingly rejected by voters. These ill fated initiatives were defeat of a similar but more presaged by stringent proposition on the California ballot last year. The Safe Energy Initiates as they were called would have curbed the unbridled pace of Nuclear power plants construction by requiring state legislatures in the respective states to approve plant sitings. Further the legislatures vyould act on building requests from private industry only if the owners to assume full financial responsibility for the consequences of a nuclear accident by waving the liability limitations created by the federal Price Anderson Act. Voters on guard The Atomic Industry waged a lavish and coordinated fight against the propositions and as the returns show their come from behind effort clearly paid off. The Atomic Industrial Forum glibly proclaimed the results “a clear victory for proponents of nuclear energy.” In Missouri, however, voters approved Proposition 1 which will prevent utilities in the state from including the cost of carrying charges on energy projects in the rate base during construction; in other words, utility companies cannot automatically dump the extra cost of reactor construction on the already hard pressed consumer. Lesson: when the purse is involved, voters are sure to be on guard. An unprecedented provision of the Western states Nuclear safety Initiatives was aimed at closing the gaping nuclear fuel cycle by making industry responsible for disposal of toxic ntic leaf wastes. In that the initiatives acknowledge the problem of nuclear waste disposal they tie in with impending ■ Deluge of law suits In September Getty Oil the parent owner of the facility announced its intentions of withdrawingfrom the reprocessing business declaring that the venture vyas a losing proposition. And indeed it wak the plant lost a seven figure sum several times over during its five years of operations. However, the corporation still has outstanding contractual obligations with thirteen utility companies nationwide. According to these contracts, it is incumbent upon the facility to reprocess spent nuclear fuel elements for these utilities. So NFS is faced by the all but certain prospect of being engulfed by a deluge of law suits. In fact Consumers Power of Michigan has just filed suit against the hapless facility charging default. New York Assemblyman William B. Hoyt (D-144) has called upon Attorney General Louis Lefkowitz to act as intervenor in the case so as to ensure that the State does not haveTo contend with a surfeit pile of burdensome uranium in addition to the prodigious quantities of waste already at the site. According to a 1963 contract with NFS, the state is financially and ecologically responsible for storing, solidifying and removing the nuclear wastes. The catch is that not only has solidification yet to be proven feasible on a large scale commercial basis, but the toxic wastes themselves are not completely safe in the tanks that presently contain them. The price tag for waste disposal begins at S480 million. Meanwhile CBS will carry a news account about the controversial facility on 60 Minutes later this month and just last Monday dedicated a five-minute segment in its Evening News Report to the waste problem and its ramifications for the nuclear age. The account, an on-site film report, was forced to rely on camera equipped helicopters executing passes over the facility to provide an illustrative view as the news crew was forbidden to enter inside. Interviews with Assemblyman Hoyt and Sierra Club. NYPIRG nuclear consultant Marvin Resnikoff pointed up the seriousness of the problem. It is self-evident that the situation is not suffering from a lack of exposure.

Michelt Regenbogen Rich, speak to me , To the Editor. ' I would like to take this opportunity to address the editorial of Spectrum's Wed., Nov. 10 issue entitled, “Where are the Intellectuals.” The inferred charge in the editorial was that the decision to bring William Shatner and the quality of the crowd persent, all lacked intelligence. That accusation is as cliche and as shallow as the reasons for the Church of Rome excommunicating Galileo for saying the earth was not the center of the universe. Speakers Bureau, although the major funder and supporter of the event, was not the originator of the program; the UUAB Literary Arts Committee was. When the information came across my desk this past summer, I thought very carefully about what Mr. Shatner represents in the field of literature. Science Fiction is as old a form of literature as other. If the editor of The Spectrum had listened to Mr. Shatner’s presentation, he took the audience through that history. Mr. Shatner is a popular representative of the literature in Science Fiction. Science Fiction has always dealt with man’s relationship with his universe. It was that imagination and that questioning which caused Galileo to be excommunicated, put man on the moon, and Vikings I and II live every night on the radio and television. What was the Viking ships looking for? Little green men! (i.e., life other then our own in the universe). Mr. Shatner provides through his role in Star Trek that creative, imaginary outlet for those people who read science fiction. I find no lack of intellect in such pursuits. To assume a similar connection between Star Trek and the “Fonz” proves to me that The Spectrum Editorial staff does not know the difference between forward, creative thinking and any nostalgia. That is the reason the Literary Arts Committee decided to ask Speakers Bureau to help bring a popular representative of this literary genre to this campus. We have reason to be proud of that production. James C.

Mr. Resnikoff states in his opening point in his exegesis Mr. Resnikoff attributes a claim paragraph that Rob Cohen and The Spectrum should to me which is positively false. He states “Mr. be congratulated for at least discussing the nuclear Patterson asserts that those four corporations cannot scrape it together, ‘that private industry is incapable power question.” I had no objection to the issue of making such a large capital investment.’ That’s (and' discussed it is essential that the being I feel issue be discussed). My objection is that the issue as hard to believe. Back that assertion with facts!” Mr. Resnikoff, if you wish to engage in a rational presented by Mr. Cohen was, at best, confused. Mr.' Resnikoff correctly states that my discussion of the issues I wish you would cease attributing opinions to me which I have never held. complaint with the Rob Cohen article was that “the assertions in that article were not backed with Nowhere do I make any mention of Allied Chemical, faots.” Mr. Resnikoff proceeds to cite the point Gulf, Shell or Westinghouse. If you look at my made by Rob Cohen that “President Ford’s proposal letter, you will see that not one of these four was that the government put up the capital for corporations is mentioned. Not once! As 1 said facilities which recycle plutonium. If these facilities previously, if you wish to discuss this matter operated successfully, then private industry would rationally get your facts straight. Mr. Resnikoff concedes in the next paragraph buy them back after a year.” At this point in Mr. Resnikoff’s letter of 8 November, confusion sets in. that Mr. Cohen’s remark about President Ford’s Mr. Resnikoff states, “As distasteful as the “chronic indecisiveness” is an assertion and not a President’s proposal is, it is a fact, Mr. Patterson not fact. This is perhaps the only time Mr. Resnikoff an assertion. The President did make this proposal so makes a correct reference to any facet of my letter which appeared in the October 29th issue of The The Spectrum cannot be faulted here.” You are right, Mr. Resnikoff, The Spectrum cannot be Spectrum. Mr. Resnikoff closes his letter with the faulted here. My question to you is “was it ever statement, “The nuclear industry is coming on some faulted by me on this point?” Though you imply hard times.’'’ Yes, Mr. Resnikoff, the nuclear that I cited this as an assertion, any reader of my industry is Coming on some hard times. You are letter will see that you are mistaken. I suggest you go making things even more difficult by resorting to back to my letter and read more closely, rhetorical tricks instead of rational discourse. In (fis next paragraph Mr. Resnikoff states that Dennis M. Patterson To the Editor: Dr. Siggelkow’s assertion that The Spectrum should be responsible to the “campus community” because it is funded by student fees appears on its face to be a gallant defense of students’ rights. But .this is in sharp contrast to his explicit and implicit support of the numerous decisions handed down by the University Administration severely restricting the use of mandatory student fees. It becomes apparent that this hypocracy is not the result of any valid policy or ideological considerations, but rather the direct function of Siggelkow’s fear of losing his job. It’s about time he realized that students do not need the “help” of an administrator who comes out of the closet every few years to wave his Vice Presidential title.

Page six The Spectrum Friday, 12 November 1976 . . Wilkeson false alarms To the Editor. Four people have been caught pulling false alarms and are currently undergoing civil proceedihgs. We’d like to make people aware that aside from the obvious dangers of pulling a false alarm, there are also serious legal ramifications which are well worth considering. ' There have been approximately 25 false fire alarms in Wilkeson Quad this semester. A large percentage have been pulled in the vicinity of the Wilkeson Pub. We’d like to inform people that pulling a false alarm is a misdemeanor punishable by $ 1000 fine or a in jail or both. The Concerned Resident Advisor* of Wilkeson ‘New World Orchestra 9 not expendable To the Editor. In view of the recent article and editorial in The Spectrum (October 27, 1976), I would like to set forth a few facts concerning New World Orchestra’s funding from CAC last year. 1. I was the former CAC official who recommended certain voluntary budget cuts in CAC’s budget for the current academic year. This was indeed influenced by my political opinions; I felt that certain minority clubs, were being unduly cut in their budgets, and in trying to work out an effective compromise, 1 did voluntarily accept cuts in CAC’s budget. The cuts I accpeted, however, would have still left enough in CAC’s budget to allow for the publication of the New World Orchestra. 2. Unfortunately, our proposals were ignored by the SA Executive Committee, which decided the budgets on its own after the rather exciting Financial Assembly Meetings were discontinued last year. Thus, the statement that “political opinions of former CAC officials could very liekly have influenced their decision to accept the budget cut they received this year” is erroneous, since we didn’t accept the budget cut CAC received this year, any more than the minority organizations did. We didn’t have a great deal to say about the whole thing. 3. I did not regard the NWO as “expendable.” During the year 1 was Director, I gained a great deal of respect for the paper and the individuals 1 knew who were members of the collective. On an official level, I was expected to prepare a budget substantial enough to fund all of CAC’s on-going projects, including the NWO, and I attempted to do so to the best of may ability. Unfortunately, the decision was not in my hands. 4. I still do not regard the NWO as expendable. I would hope that every effort would be put forth to fund it. I do feel, however, that the paper deserves funding on its own merits, and not on some half-baked accusations that Mr. Silverman or myself sold it out last year. 5. As regards Mr. Silverman: at the time of the budget hearings, he had effectively resigned his duties as CAC treasurer (after more than a year ot extremely difficult work), and sat as a member of the SA Finance Committee. He did not accept these responsibilities lightly, and very likely have influenced their decision to accept the budget cut they we agreed that he could not show CAC any favoritism. As a member of the Committee, he had to balance the interests of CAC against the interests of many other campus organizations, and, although I disagreed with him on several occasions, it is pure bullshit to say that he engaged in “some kind of a conspiracy.” I continue to have the highest amount of respect for Mr. Silverman’s integrity. 6. As regards the comment that “since the paper was not informed by CAC that it was likely they would be cut, NWO missed the important chance of appearing before the Sub Board publications hearing,” I repeatedly advised members of the NWO to approach Sub Board during the year, since we agreed that NWO Was being unreasonably restricted by the low budget CAC was able to give it. I cannot say it is fair to place any responsibility for the deadline having passed on the current or past CAC officers. 7. f am delighted to read that the Financial Committee recommended the NWO’s funding request to the Financial Assembly or Sub Board; since the reference to “questionable practices casts a completely unjustified suspicion, evidently on Mr. Silverman and myself, 1 would ask them to retract it. Mr. Silverman and 1, although we disagreed with each other almost completely at the time, both acted with honesty and integrity. 8. I welcome indeed, at this point, I insist upon the “investigation into alleged unethical actions.” That’s an accusation, and it should be cleared up to everyone’s satisfaction. 9. I would recommend to The Spectrum that, in the future, if they publish statements about “former C/kC officials,” they at least inform those officials and give them an opportunity to respond. — — Andrew Harrington Former Director CAC Cambridge, Massachusetts �Third World research Editor’s note: The following letter was written the University students. to The Shatner program To the Editor. • Of past programs which Mr. Greenberg criticized: Timothy Leary’s popularity should not simply be characterized as “reaching into the past.” His lecture discussed alternatives for the future! Surely considering this, and the fact that in the spring we are sponsoring Jack Anderson, an Abortion Debate and Simon Wiesenthal (upon whose work the "Odessa File” was based), it is justifiable to allow students to also enjoy Stan Lee and William Strainer’’ We hasten to add that it is misleading to state that Speakers Bureau itself spent $4000 for Shatner. The program was cosponsored with UUAB Literary Arts and further subsidized by an admission charge. It cost Speakers Bureau less than Dr. Klein’s Dear Students. May I have the honor of introducing myself to you. My name is Rev. Benito Mgangaluma from Tanzania, East Africa. I am a student at U.B. taking a Masters degree in Sociology. This year I have had several talks with the Graduate Student Association Executive Committee and explained to them my wish to form an Association, which will have the mission of promoting education in Third World countries. The leaders of GSA supported my ideas and advised me to invite students to participate in this new Association, which could become an organization within GSA. I invite any student to join “Education Research For Third World Countries.” 1. The naturi of this Association will be to conduct research on education in all Third World countries. Research will hopefully be conducted 2. within these countries. 3. Our aim will be to learn, to explore, to discover and rediscover, to open schools to educate children of Third World countries, to make available knowledge for growth and development. 4. The means for reaching our aim will be through the charitable works of students and other help from different charitable organizations. 5. Who can be a member?

He' criticized the sponsoring of such “non-intellectual” and escapist speakers as Stan Lee, William Shatner and Timothy Leary. While he stated that the turnout for these programs was as good as for intellectual programs, he apparently, felt that Speakers Bureau should not be allowed to sponsor them. Prior to programming this semester, Speakers Bureau conducted a survey. According to the results, a major expectation of students is that Speakers appearance. Mr. Greenberg’s loyalty to last year’s program is Bureau will sponsor programs which will be entertaining.

I must ask if dramatic poetry recitation, ex.cerpts from contemporary and 18th century dramatic literature, not to mention the exploration of man’s search for expanded horizons is not on an intellectual level as well as entertaining, what is? William Shatner gave those of us present something of himself and asked us to think of the impact and relevance of his presentation. Much of the presentation demanded thought and active use of understood exactly what was going on. Although I agree with the precept in reference to Ms. Neil and Mr. Howard, the purpose of those engagements may well have been to give us an insight into cultural phenomena much akin to the Star Trek mania. William A. Driscoll Protectionist liberalism That time To the Editor. To the Editor. Association via one of the task forces to Yes folks, it’s that time of year again where those students who are unable to pay the full price of tuition sweat out that long wait for a reply to their application for tuition assistance (TAP). It seems to me that this year there is a major problem in receiving an answer from the New York Higher Education Services Corporation. If there should be some type of massive computer foul up it should at least be publicized by the office of Student Affairs since the department of Financial Aid is located within this office and closer to the problem. It might also be a good idea for our Student Since we also have some reputable SASU representatives in Albany, they too might investigate the administrative efficiency of the New York Higher Education Services Corporation and propose some type of legislation to deal with this perpetual problem. After all, the sooner those students who are eligible for TAP pay their tuition and activity fees, the sooner SASU dues can be paid and the Published on page fifteen of The Spectrum of fifth of November, 1976, was a cartoon depicting Arabs in a way that can only b«j described as repulsive. The picture, which relates to the Arab boycott of Israel an0 the interconnection between it and the American business community, shtfws two Arabs wearing the traditional gellaba , one of them carrying a sword, the other a gun. That the picturing of these two Arabs emanates from a mind full of stereotyping is a fact hard to challenge. A “development,” however, is to be noted, for these two Arabs now carry an expression on their faces: a “dirty” and “mean” one, but nonetheless it is an expression! Arabs, as depicted in the U.S., are not anymore the faceless masses of the June, 1967 war, but the “mean” and “dirty oil-rich barbarians” whose only concern is the destruction of the a “peaceful” and “democratic” state of Israel sea ot Western civilization a in replicate of uncivilized “natives.” Would you, dear editor, or wouldn’t you protest against the depiction of an American in a foreign newspaper as a soldier shoving his machine gun in the mouth of a five-year-old Vietnamese child? Would you write to the editor of that paper informing him/her and his/her readers that not all Americans are Mai-Lai heroes just as not all Arabs are oil sheiks? Stereotyping of the sort of any minority would have been inconceivable in your paper for it would (and should) be labeled racist. Thus, 1 urge you Sir the modest Arab students to bestow upon us status of a “minority” so we may enjoy your protectionist liberalism, so we may not suffer from acid indigestion every time we pick up your paper. 1 thank you in advance, Sir. the — — — of year investigate this problem. sooner Student Association can receive their funds for more activities. Gene loli IRCB returnable bottles To the Editor 1 am writing in response to an Oct. 2d issue ot The Spectrum from Brad Koshar, IRC B Inc.’s Director of Operations. Being a dorm resident for a year and a half and having frequented IRCB grocery stores (i.e.. The Grub) regularly as a customer, this is my written request to IRCB, Inc. to convert to a returnable bottle program. In his letter Koshar says, “One of the major reasons behind our opposition to the proposal (of a returnable bottle program) was the fact that we do not have the needed storage space.” Being a resident of the Spaulding Temporary Housing “Syndrome” at the Tllicott Complex, and, upon being moved from Spaulding four weeks after arriving in Sept. ’76, myself along with 300 others moved can show Koshar all the storage space he, needs (i.e., in Spaulding Bldgs. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7). Also, the clothes washing room in Spaulding was rendered inoperative during our stay there because IRC'B, Inc. stored its refrigerators there. Maybe they could put bottles in the washroom while the refrigerators are being rented and keep the washing room closed. Koshar also says, “The FSA is conducting a controlled experiment in the Rathskellar.” Actually FSA’s only across-the-counter distributor of bottles is the Rathskellar and it has completely converted over to returnables. it is Koshar’s final blunder begins completely false that we are not responsive to student needs.” In closing I would just like to say that it is the “need” of all people, including students, to have a clean environment, even if as Koshar says, “we if would he unable to receive the variety returnable bottles were requested.” I gladly give up my canned iced tea for this small step in the right direction. ...

But suddenly, a new breed of superhero has surfaced. The Six Million Dollar Man is as popular today as Batman was in his television prime. His female counterpart, the Bionic Woman is just as popular. And what about Wonder Woman and Gemini Man? Even on Saturday morning. Superheroes like Captain Marvel and Isis (Isis is definitely my favorite. I Love the way nobody finds out that she’s really that neat chemistry teacher. Miss Thomas} are visable as part of the resurgence in Superheroics. With ABC three jumps ahead of the other networks in the programming of these Superheroes, it is more than likely that the other two networks are racking their brains for new Superheroes to equalize this edge that ABC has gained. On the local scene, we feel that WGR and WBEN would be wise to try and beat their networks to the punch by counteracting The Six Million Dollar Man with an entry of their own. One possible pilot could be entitled, “Dupergirl.” “Dupergirl” stars Joey as a Superhero dedicated to fighting evil and high food prices. Joey’s powers are varied.

Pizza Man rides around in his Pizzamobile hijacking pizza delivery boys as they make thelr rounds. He steals the pizzas and adds vanilla, orange and almond extracts to them. Then he completes the deliveries, overcharging the customers by 50 cents and not leaving until they tip him an additional quarter. Needless to say, as the story opens, 5000 people are laid up in Sisters Hospital with heartburn that couldn’t be cured by 70,000 rolls of Rolaids, 400,000 Alka-Seltzers or 850 gallons of Pepto Bismol. Joey, who doubles as checker for a great metropolitan supermarket, finds out about the rash of stomach problems when her 1 best friend, lox sheer Mabel Bloom calls in sick.

Finally, as the dinner hour approaches, they spot him in his Pizzamobile, about to make one of his'“deliveries.” “Not $1.59,” cries Dupergirl and suddenly, one of the Pizzamobile tires blows out. (Dupergirl’s other power is that by saying ‘Not’ followed by a price, she can cause strange events to take place.

Studio Arena Theatre productions of The Miser and The Doctor In Spite of Himself in years past, gave Buffalo a taste for Mpliere's timeless buffoonery, as did the Department's production of The Misanthrope two years ago. In. fact, any of the French actor-playwright's classic comedies is all but foolproof, given a barely competent production. Gregg Maday's production of Invalid reaches far -above the level of simple competence, due above all to his excellent cast. The production is ballyhooed at the first collaboration between the Theatre Buffalo from the Department and actors thing; not for one there community. That's true, ago. years local actors Titanic Lore several in were it be only would incidental Even if it were, though, if it weren't for the excellence of the "community members of the cast , Comic/actor One of them is David Lamb, who plays Argon, the "invalid" of the title, a doddering hypochondriac whose efforts to marry his daughter to a dcotor (thus gaining constant, free medical care) are the focus of the play. Lamb is an actor-director of prodigious experience, and his Argon makes this evident. For he's taken one on the most dangerous, courageous routes a comic lead in a play could take he's concentrated' on developing a character instead of trying for laughs, which he gets nonetheless. In his hands, Argon is much more than a crotchety type: he's a man of full dimension, capable of love and concern for his wife and but I,ess for both than for himself daughter The other local cast memeber, Elizabeth Hiller is almost as fine as Argon's sister, Beralde. Like Lamb, her vocal technique is superb, and her instinct - - Marcia who engages in some byplay with his father (Gerald Finnegan) that recalls Abbott and Costello. Since it takes a good actor or actress to do Wiesenfeld, though, tries so hard to be as charming Argon's daughter, Angelique, that she across comes as synthetic and forced, though she handles her role decently enough. Good support is given by Lucia Beck as Argon's grasping wife, with a nice portrait of domestic villainy, and Thomas Joyce, under a Beethoven-like thunderhead of heair, as a doctor who hilariously turns an enema into a liturgy. The functional but elegant in-the-round set is the work of Vanessa James, the lavish costumes by Anna Marie Brooks. The first-night invitational benefit helped insure that last summer's Delaware Park production of The Winter's Tale will have worthy successors. That assurance alone is welcome; that is came about through another light, but enjoyable, evening is a comedy well, it should be no surprise to anyone bonus, for the nuances of a line unerring. The scenes between Argon and Beralde, which must manage a rather difficult transition in Argon's character, are not only handled successfully; as drama, they're the high points of the evening. Laugh yourself sick For comedy, those heights are multiple; Invalid is funny all by itself, and this production manages some laughs that could well require a stich or two, if not keep you in that condition. The most comical sight of the evening is James McGuire's Thomas Diafoirus, a pudgy, waddling, pratfalling blockhead who's seen her before that Theresa DePaolo, as Toinette, Argon's all-but omniscient maid, is a delight. A good performer having a,g.gpd time is always a joy to see, and DePaolo is both; only a few overly broad moments coarsen her otherwise fine work. i The Imaginary Invalid runs tonight through Sunday night at the Pfeifer (Courtyard) Theatre, Lafayette at Hoyt, starting at 8:00 p.m.; reservations are stongly advised, for which you can call 831 3045. ** �Zipper opens in coffeehouse John Denver doesn't "My name is Phillips. my real name, though It’s disappoint his fans not my real is 'Zipper.'

The self-styled "Golden Voice of the Great Southwest" had a long and checkered career before his folkie years, washing dishes in Yellowstone Park, bumming and booming hopping trains from one end of the country to the other, and "running either for or from the U.S. Senate on the Peace and Freedom Party Ticket iri '68, all the while singing and playing my as a kind of guitar diversionary activity." by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Those who fought the fierce Buffalo winds and hordes of teeny hoppers to see the John Denver Show in Memorial Auditorium last Monday night were not disappointed. For anyone already sold on him, the evening was a real delight. The Starland- Vocal Band opened the show, receiving a warm reception from the Buffalo crowd; a reception I'm not really sure they deserved. They are still glaringly new at singing together; the females (Taffy Dandoff and Margo Chapin) can't seem to find a happy medium they're either overpoweringly loud or inaudible. They certainly failed to produce the kind of lovely harmonies a group like Fleetwood Mac has proven that menwomen teams can. They did, however, seem to charm the crowd, especially Taffy Dandoff's story of how the song "Afternoon Delight" came about. Her husband Bill was in a restaurant in Washington, D.C. she said, and saw on the menu an entree called "Afternoon Delight." "Expecting something magical," she said, he ordered it, and was disappointed to find it was only food. However, he then came home and told her "very, very, very nicely" what his idea of "Afternoon Delight" would be, and thus came the idea for the some: . — — — Travelin' man What Phillips sings and plays about, mostly, is "railroads, bums, working people, the old and new West, and all the different things that happen to you when you're in love." He can call many places home his native Southwest, a rattling railroad car, a union hall, a skid row, not least a concert — stage. Like Wood Guthrie, Phillips writes and sings above all for "regular people;" his words and music are simple to understand, but that simplicity doesn't mean any lack of understanding, balls, or harsh beauty. When he sings and talks about organizing and building railroads, he knows what he's talking about he's done both, and more. Other singers have picked up on many of Phillips' songs "Goodnight Loving Trail," "Coin' Away," "Starlight On the Rails," and others; he's done two fine records for the Philo label one — — — Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight Gonna grab some afternoon delight. My motto's always been when its right, its right. Why wait until the middle of a Cold, dark night? of railroad songs ( Good Thought) and one of Western songs {El Cap itan).

I’m sure Denver himself has probably seen better nights. His voice kept cracking, because of a cold, he said. More likely, hi? voice just isn't as crystal-clear and perfect as the modern wonders of technology can make it sould on a recording. His range is really very limited, as he himself admitted, and when he attempted to sing "Fly Away" along (which was on his "Windsong" album with Oliva Newton-John), the notes were simply too high for said that the tea and honey he had him. Afterwards, he laughed sipped before the song was "mostly honey, gang." but it didn’t seem to effect him until he got to the really high notes. In any case, if you pay to see a concert, you should get your money's worth, or at least think you have, and I doubt there were many John Denver fans Monday night who would have asked for their money back. When's the last time you were at a concert where people actually sang when urged to do so? To the point where you felt conspicuous if you weren't?

And how many performers have so many songs that are so well knownyv that in more than an hour he can't get to everyone's "favorite"? Aunt Lou Denver opened the show with "Annie's Song" (Has anyone ever seen Annie? Poes she really exist?) and followed with a generous helping of selections from his new "Spirit" LP. Taffy Dandoff sounded much better singing with Denver than she did with her band, harmonizing on "Baby You Look Good to Me Tonight" and "Take Me Home Country Roads." There were also numerous "folksey" asides that are Denver trademarks. He performed his mother's and father's favorite songs, and offered the hypothesis that "In everyone's life there is an Aunt Lou (who smells like a Shetland Pony, wears gobs of lipstick, and has a thing about kissing her little nephews)." Anyway, what s wrong with having a good time? I'm sure most of the crowd at the Aud did. Everyone has their favorite fantasy, and for those of us who like John Denver, our's is the one he weaves in his songs. It s really nice to believe that in this day and age people can actually take off to the country and live a natural life, play their guitar all day and marry a girl named Annie.

Page eleven �Lynyrd Skynyrd and J,Geils Band: Variations on a theme by Sharon Galuszka Spectrum Music Staff Rhythm and Blues as though they're chained to it committed even though they've ofteh been criticized for their repetitiveness. — — What better way to spend one's than at a full-scale musical party? That was the case Friday, October 29 when the J. Geils Band and Lynyrd Skynyrd returned to Buffalo for the umpteenth time each, to give a "Halloween concert." The groups, currently two of thq country's hottest boogie attractions, had brought teams of teens to the Aud in full force and, haviog just turned twenty myself, I wondered was I still supposed to like this .stuff? I hadn't been expecting anything that new, as previous experience with both bands (and rock music in general) had proven that the novelty wears off after seeing one or two performances of the same material. Success often takes something away from an established band's performances; don't seem to try as hard once they no longer have to prove themselves. The substitution of the Alpha Band (whom I've never even heard of) in place of the originally (and much announced anticipated) opening act Ambrosia was a disappointing one so disappointing, in fact, that I couldn't bring myself to devote much attention to them. Their typical music was countrified quick pickin', fun strummin' material, and I wpndered where the promoters had dug them up from on such short notice. birthday — — — Variations on a theme J. Geils was another story They still continue to pump out their familiar style of white man's They'Ve played it in every way, shape and form, doing variations on the same theme, polishing it until there is nothing left.to add. We saw R & B as heavy metal with Full House, R & B with overtones of reggae on the primitive, best-selling Bloodshot, R & B with lyrical emphasis on Ladies Invited (which, owing to Peter Wolf and Seth dustman's emphasis on songwriting, rather than cover was their most versions, commercially disappointing LP) and finally, R & B as R & B with the Hotline and Nightmares albums. What's left, R & B as disco? (NO! NO! NO!) . .. J. Geils' concert this time around displayed the many attitudes which run through much of their basically mean music amusing and forceful (“Detroit Breakdown"), wild and frenzied ("Whammer Jammer", "hfouse — Party"), sexy ("Give It to Me"), woman-loving ("Lovitfis”, "Lookin’ for a Love") and woman-hating ("Where Did Our Love Go?"). However, they seem no longer awestruck with their music or the success they have achieved with it. J. Geils still sounds crazy, but they also sound comfortable. Maybe a bit too comfortable. Sometimes they give the impression that they're bored of doing the same stuff over and over again Wolf's and dustman's lyrics seldom go much further than street talk, but show a keen ear for parody and satire. Their compositions reflect Beantown bands around, whose concerts tend to be filled with endless jams & Roll Blues. attempts to get "laid back," and of the Rock version For people still into their music, Skynyrd are not actually in the they mainstream of Southern music.

Sounding like Free, quality of the music. Unlike most noteworthy achievement that it is, of the many other rebel-rousing is not the only thing that Skynyrd has accomplished. They have come up with some of the most interesting riffs ("I Ain't the One," "Sweet Home Alabama") to, emerge ever from a guitar-dependent band. Theirs is music which is unpretentious a powerful, simple style with no frills (subtleties, yes, but no frills). jive, grown-up nursery rhymes, sung to the tune of an Amercian — — of emotion without great range. The road has taken its toll on Van Zant's voice, and one day it will be all but gone, but for now, he uses his personality to extend the commonness of his vocals he can make the most hackneyed lyrics sound believable. Opening with a prideful "Workin* for MCA", Skynyrd their older (better) favored material throughout the set, only playing one song from Gimme Back My Bullets, their fourth and most recent studio album. They played many established favorites, Gone," including "Tuesday's "Gimme Three Steps," "Call Me the Breeze" and the inevitable "Sweet Home." The latter was graced by the inclusion of three female vocalists (as on the original single), although their presence on sbngs many other became overwhelming and at times — obnoxious Throughout the remainder of guitarists Gary set, the Rossington, Allen Collins and Steve Gaines chose to hand back strengthen and the rhythm section, aided by the eighty-eight fingered piano player Billy Powell. The evening's real rave-up came with "Free Bird", Skynyrd's automatic encore rock and roll at its most enveloping, a tribute to theJate Duane Allman and Berry Oakley. Each axeman gets, a chance to let loose on this one, as the soaring, kinetic interplay which has made the band notorious shines through the relentless smokescreen of driving rhythm set down by bassist Leon Wilkersdn and drummer Artimus — - Good guys? ’Expecting to see Ronnie Van Zant in one of his many washed-out black T-shirts, I was Pyle. surprised when he walked out Reservations about the concert dressed completely in white, and aside, Lynyrd Skynyrd seems to the matching Stetson, along with be a significant group wijh a the prerecorded Gunsmoke theme no-nonsense approach and music as the band hit the stage steadfast directness, in direct gave the impression of some sort contrast to the J.

Due to the irrepressible laughter the two names together conjure, the comedy pair have become legends in their own time. The Stucltent Union Board of Buffalo State College presented ’these madmen last Saturday evening to a capacity crowd When I began to talk with Cheech and Chong, they were about to settle down to a Chinese dinner. Chong related how the two met. "Well, I was walking the dog down the streets of Vancouver one day when Cheech I owned a club in jumped on my dog. No, really Vancouver and Cheech wanted a job." The two began to do comedy and then to do improvisational clubs. This is where the image of the "Pedro and the Man" skit — developed. The conversation switches to talk of feelings of Canadians toward Americans. "No, we don't put them down, the little suckers." Cheech chokes on his Chinese water chestnuts as he unexpectedly laughs at the comment. He recovers saying, "The Chinese laugh at Americans; they have a weird, sense of humor. The Japanese are weird too. They sing 'You Are The Sunshine of My Life' just like Stevie Wonder but can't speak a word of English." Cheech goes back to his Chinese food. On st;age the two perform an act entailing Pedro and Man the Man stoned in a customized car. Pedro offers The this, bigger than dick is I hope your "Man, a joint. retorts The Man. The Man offers Pedro one Of his joints and Pedro chokes. "What's in this, man?" "It's Hamburger Helper and marijuana. . You get stoned but you don't get the munchies later." . Worn-out stereotypes Unfortunately, Cheech and Chong have not essentially changed their act in three years. The pair have been stereotyped into the role of Pedro and The Man. When confronted with this phenomenon, Chong says "I know what you're getting at but we give the people what they to want. We give them what they pay to see. They want see acts that are familiar to them. It doesn't bother us." When asked what segments of society the act particularly relates to, Cheech replies, "The grapefruit segment." The whole of the interview's questions .seem to be perfect straight-lines for a grand comedy act, but maybe this is what people expect. It is Chong who is semi-serious.

And get this tickets are a mere S.97. That's right, a rock heard, haven’t roll concert for less than a dollar! The band, in case you three is the notoriously crazy Ozark Mountain Daredevils who, with Heaven, Want to Get to ("If and two You hit singles excellent albums "Jackie Blue") to their credit, hae shown themselves to be talented; enthusiastic and eclectic proponents of every style of American music. Their latest effort The Car Over the Lake Album , is definitive proof of the band's many influences and the refreshing approach with which they breathe new life into many already well-known genres of music. Bluegrass, mountain music, gospel, straight country & western, Southern guitar-based boogie, basic rock & roll, and even hints of R&B and funk are present here, continuing use of the extremes of texture cult and style which made their two albums worthy of a pronounced - following throughout the country. Most of the Daredevils' six members are multi-instrumentalists, the is result being something like a seventies' electric jug band. The lineup as follows: John Dill ion, guitar, vocals, piano, dulcimer, autoharp, mandolin, percussion, harp; Steve Cash, harp, vocals and poetry; Randle Chowning, guitar, vocals, harp, mandolin; Michael "Supe" Granda, bass and vocals; Larry Lee, drums, guitar, piano and vocals; Buddy Brayfield, piano. With such versatility (and five vocalists), one can expect to see a lot of careful attention paid to texture and vpcal harmony, something most rock bands simply cannot be bothered with in a live setting. It's always nice to see a band whose members change in overall sound many outfits whose albums feature such instrumental flexibility don't the Ozarks should be a surprise. bother recreating them live this show at all costs (S.97 and busfare better to get So, you'd most) break or you may just miss something which won't downtown people will be talking about for years.

It was not until Reuben became a teenager that his parents began to question that eventful night of bliss in the back seat of their Dodge -Bart. You see, it was around his thirteenth birthday when young Reuben's head became filled with crazy ideas. First of all, he didn't wanna play no more baseball; now he had other interests, such as pussy, stolen cars, and money. Needless to say, all this was a shock to his typically average, Neanderthal L A. parents. Probably the most traumatic escapade inflicted upon Reuben's guardians came when he announced his wish to form a rock and roll band. "Ha," his parents responded, when he asked them to buy him a guitar . . . Alas, without any funding from the homeland, and no money of his own, Reuben in utter desperation did the only thing he could. Reuben (in his utter desperation) went downtown and sold his teenage sister, and with the money that he got, he bought a shiny electric guitar. Ah, Reuben, God bless his oily chinos, he always did have a keen sense for business. Alas, Alas, as he returned from his shopping trip, Reuben discovered that it wasn't going to be as easy as he thought making money. A whole new set of problems arose. He discovered, “I have to think of an image." Last but not least, he pondered, "Maybe I should even change my name?" But these things didn't stop him, for Reuben was ambitious and set'himself to work immediately. Reuben practiced and practiced, and after only three months, he had mastered 101 different arrangements of "Louis Louis." Thinking that it was now as good a time as any, Reuben gathered a band, named them the Jets, and made is break from home to the club piece of plastic, which conveyed every musical thought he had ever dreamed, including, of course, transpired as he was being that the ones photographed for his famous "Phi Zappa Grappa poster.

Friday, 12 November 1976 — Prodigal �f \ RECORDS Olivia Newton-John, Don't Stop Believin' (MCA) Over the summer, in a review of Leslie Duncan's album, Moonbathing, I said that Olivia Newton-John couldn't relate to her listeners. Well folks, I'm going to do something no sane reviewer ever does I'm going to eat my words. It was then thought that Olivia, because he was so perfect, wasn't subjected to the trials and woes of the average human being. Olivia seemed so real, so beautiful, that she became dream like to me. She was almost artificial and plastic. With the album, Don't Stop Believin', Olivia's proximity to perfection is not lessened but qualified. Since this is the first album of Olivia's I have reviewed, previous opinions of her have not been based on the fact of listening intently to one of her releases. Subsequent to this time, my opinions of Olivia had been formed on the criterion of imagination. As Olivia's image so sweetly pervaded the radio speakers, the view of her was to build that sweetness to a pedastal. But the songs of Don't Stop Believin' relieve Olivia from the pedestal. 01 ibepomes a beatiful person, not merely an overolown sugared image. Lord, human qualities actually make the album. So take heed folks, the following is a course on how to produce a human being. The theme of a prayerful fantasy is, of course, an integral small part of the recipe and is envisioned in the song "Hey Mr. Dreammaker": — "Hey, Mr. Dreammaker send me a dream This one is over t's not what it seems / Jimmy Owens (Horizon) I've seen Jimmy Owens play a few times around New York, as a member of the New York Jazz Repertory Company (of which he serves on the Board of Directors) and with the Collective Black Artists, Inc. (as one of its founding participants). I was impressed at the time with Owens as an up-and-coming young trumpet player with good chops on his horn. This album did not rise to my expectations. Owens seems to be trying to jump into the commercial jazz bowl of catmeal. Endlessly boring bass lines played by electronically altered bass are the main ingredient Owens uses to achieve his end. If "Caravan,-" a funked-over version of Ellington's tune, "Do It To It," and "What's the Use," an appropriate title, were edited down to about three minutes each, Jimmy Owens could probably do well on AM radio. An unsparing use of wah-wah, reverb, and echo on all the instruments are contributing factors in making these pieces commercially acceptable, but musically unpalatable. None of these three tracks So tonight when / turn out the light Send me a new dream tonight." This feeling is then balanced and nriellowed by the starkness of reality in "A Thousand Conversations": "You Whiled away the hours Making promises that migh t have just changed the world if they'd only turned out right But now I'm a little wise, can even raise a laugh at the funny face you pulled on a faded photograph. / " Also present in Don't Stop Believin' is love ending in warm-hearted kindness in "Compassionate Man," a revealing innocence of a child's thoughts in "New Born Babe." Throughout the album, Olivia runs the gamut of human emotion. One can, I suppose, retort that since she does not write her songs, the reality of Olivia promoted is false. Truly, it is the interpreting of song which is the crux of communicating reality, not necessarily the writing. Additionally, Olivia does write a song on Don't Stop Believin' the first tune she has written since "Changes" on the If You Love Me Let Me Know album. It is a crisp, clear piece called, "Love You Hold The Key.” All the album's songs have this lucid quality within them. > The clarity is appropriate on the album, moreso than on other releases because of the real-life interpretation of song. Kudos should go to John Farrar for producing the album. It may be Olivia's best. —Harold Goldberg — ever seem to get off the ground This album also includes a straight ahead jazz tune, "Secret Love," performed by unaltered trumpet, acoustic piano, acoustic bass, and drums. , The highlight of this tune is a piano solo by Kenny Barron. This is the only piece where the pianist shows what he is capable of and also the only track where he plays acoustic piano. Throughout the album, as with the other musicians, Ownes plays notes and runs without any real feeling behind them. He just goes through the motions of playing the notes of a solo. Perhaps the nicest piece is "My Life," written by the bass player, Chriris White. Ownes plays the pleasing melodic line as though he had some feeling for it. The melody develops nicely and is the only piece on the album I can honestly say I like. If Jimmy Owens would be as concerned with music as he is with keeping up with commercial trends and the dollar, he could turn out much better albums than this one. —Alan Mark Strauber / FESTIVAL EAST A Q-PM-97 PRESENT DOOBIE BROTHERS AND SPECIAL GUEST: RORY GALLAGHER SUN., NOV. 14TH—8 P.M.—NIAGARA FALLS TICKETS: *7.50. *6 50 t S5.50 CONVENTION CENTER TICKETS ON SAlt NOW AT THE CONVENTION CTR BOX OFFICE, CENTRAL TICKETS (132 DELAWARE) & AU CTO.

The SLU skaters topped the Bulls 8-4, and in. the process gave the Buffalo rookie defensemen a lesson on the do’s and don’ts of Division II hockey. The Bulls, despite being outshot 36-25 through the first two periods, were only down 5-4 entering the final stanza. It was in the closing seven minutes of the game that the Bulls’ frosh defense learned that every little mistake costs when playing a team like St. Lawrence. St. Lawrence’s JohnDougherty ended the Bulls’ chance for a comeback when at 13:41 of the third period, he wrapped the rebound of a Dan Weir breakaway past Buffalo netminder John Moore, who was helplessly stranded alone on the far side of the net. Less than fifty seconds later, the Saints’ Doug Crawford was left unattended in the slot and drilled a bullet into the net. SLU’s Pete MacKenzie closed out the scoring at 17:30, when he walked through a crowd in front of the crease, and slid the puck past a confused Moore, who registered 42 saves for the , evening. School of hard knocks “Playing a team such as this (SLU), you’ve got to learn something.” Buffalo coach Ed Wright explained. “1 think that the defense knows what it takes to be a winner: When you’re burnt by your mistakes, you can look back at them the next day and learn from them.” Moore agreed with his coach that- the game was a learning experience, and he cited an example to prove his point. Page sixteen . “It’s too bad that we had to learn at the expense of losing. The defense held up very well, although we have to get together on certain things,” said the Buffalo goalie. “I think that I’ve learned a lesson, never to take your eyes off the puck.” Moore was referring to his second period error on a routine dump-pass that led to the winning goal. St. Lawrence's Dan Walker had skimmed the puck into the Bulls' zone from the red line, and Moore slid to the right post, anticipating the disc’s winding around the boards. But the puck took a tricky hop off- the backboards and kicked back to the left side of the crease. SLU winger Dick Popiel cruised in and poked the puck past Moore who was unaware of its location. Ray “Toughie” Gruarin, who was voted third star of the game, was probably the best Bull on the ice. He scored Buffalo's first two goals, centered two lines for much of the game, and backchecked effectively. — at UB better if you get involved. Think of all the ways you can get your $67 Worth!

He will be sidelined for at least two weeks, and probably more. Thank you Popiel’s goal wasn’t the only “There’s no doubt about it, strange bccurrenoe of the night.

The Spectrum . Friday, 12 November 1976 As At-Large Senators, we are members of the Student Activities and Services Task Force, headed by Pat Lovejoy, a life long resident of Buffalo. The task force is made up of a lot of different student interests. This task force along with the Commuter Council, is receptive to Commuters problems Problems. One of the duties of the task force is to investigate the and needs of the commuter students. We alone cannot fully, represent every commuter oh campus (we have a rough enough time representing ourselves). As an example, one of om biggest priorities was the parking lot problem. We proposed that students dressed as Disney characters greet commuters as they get out of their cars it’s such a long lonely walk to Norton. Ha! Ha! )ust one Of our meager attempts at humor. Seriously though folks, that proposition was a direct result of too many beers And onion rolls in the Rat. Really though, if you have a complaint about anything besides life in general, bring the problem up. Attend a task force meeting yourself (you won’t be signing away your first born child), or come to the SA office (205 Norton) and talk to someone there such as us, or Peter Genco, the Commuter Coordinator. Check the Backpage of The Spectrum for times (the task force usually meets Tuesday afternoon*, the council meets every Wednesday at 3 p.m.). Believe it or not, you’ll probably enjoy your stay here ********* On Friday, November 12, the Commuter Council will sponsor numerous activities throughout the day. The day will begin with a Commuter Breakfast in the Fillmore Room of Norton Hall. It will begin at 8 a.m. and continue until noon. Beverages are free, as usual, and doughnuts will be sold. Once again, the Fillmore Room will be the scene of the evening events. The evening will start with a Coffeehouse at 7 p.m. until 9 p.m. For the first hour, Joni Schwartz will play the guitar and sing. Joni has performed for the council before and has proven to be a success. During the second hour, Joy Petock (recently returned from a European tour) will sing and play the piano. The dance will start at 9:30 p.m. when the Rascals will begin their performance. The Rascals will be playing soft rock music, so if you like dancing, this will be the place for you. (Also if you just like to listen!!) The group consists of Mike Morzinski, Greg Kock, and Ed and Bill Dryja. Admission is free for all events. In the evening, Food Service will be selling beverages. We're looking forward to seeing you Peter Genco Commuter Affairs Coordinator *********** The Commuter Council would like to thank Sara Hajduk for the designing and building of the new Commuter Ride Board.

Clark Hall, in ludicrous contrast tb our beautiful Amherst Campus, which without 'a gym is as complete as a house without a bathrbom!” He also described Clark Hall as an “aging two story box, you could easily mistake as the maintenance garage." According to Delia, the budget cuts have reduced the size of the Amherst Gym complex so that it will be unable to adequately serye the recreational needs of the University community. Delia hopes to mobilize student opinion and pressure the Construction'Fund into reversing, some of the cuts. Completion of gym at Amherst still eighteen months away by Gary Sammartano Spectrum Staff Writer Construction of arj Amherst gym (officially known as Health, Physical Education and Recreation Complex the [HPER] K first conceived in 1968, is still about eighteen months away according to Vice President for Facilities Planning John Telfer. The budget of this new Amherst Gym, which was originally set at S25 million, has been reduced by numerous cuts to about S16 million. These cuts have caused a reduction in proposed gym space by one-third, from about three hundred thousand square feet to around )wo hundred thousand square feet. Originally the gym complex was to be composed of a basketball arena, a locker core and an ice hockey facility. The hockey rink was one of the first casualties of the budget cuts. Also, the seating capacity of the basketball facility has been reduced from ten thousand to about seven thousand seats. The poor financial health of the State University of New York (SUNY) has been only one of the factors in the project’s eight year history of delays. Accordihg to Teller, lack of communication between the SUNY Construction Fund, architect Robert Coles and Buffalo’s office of Facilities Planning has been mainly responsible for the delay. Miscalculation A miscalculation by the construction fund has delayed the project even further. During the gym's early development last year, plans to include more space in the building than was possible led tb a huge error which angered many people including Student Athletic Review Board (SARB) Chairman Dennis Delia. In his testimony at the SUNY Board of Trustees Open Hearing at Buffalo State College last week. Delia bitterly attacked the delays and cutbacks in the project and charged that this University’s recreation and related ■instruction facilities were the worst in the state. “It’s unfortunate that your hearing couldn’t be held at UB,” Delia told the Trustees, “so you could see first hand Less than ideal Delia is organizing the Students for the Future of Athletics. It will be a “lobby group of student athletes that will attempt to have certain issues, such as the North Campus Gym decided in the student interest,” he said. While admitting that the size of the proposed complex is “less than ideal,” Teller believes that pressure tactics offer no hope for positive results and can only delay the project further. Teller is also afraid that additional cuts may be in the offing given the unfavorable financial situation faced by New York State and SUNY. Teller claims there is no chance of speeding up construction of the gym. At the present rate of progress the gym Will not be completed until 1981. Facilities Planning favors the completion Of the complex, cutbacks included, as soon as possible. Last year Telfer reasoned that “three quarters of a chicken is better than none,” when referring to the Amherst Gym. Clits knocked out Bionics win their semi-final Dean Scheffer’s pass rush and Mike Betz’ quarterbacking led the Bionic Men past the New York semi-final 16-0 in a Clits game football intramural Wednesday at Rotary Field. The Bionic Men took no time to get their attack moving. After the opening kickoff, Betz ran twenty yards to midfield on first down. On the next play, Betz hit Mike Groh for a twenty yard pass play, and then Betz ran the ball to the Clits’ fifteen. After' an incomplete pass (there are five downs in intramural football), Betz once again found Groh for the touchdown. Duke McGuire caught the extra point, and the Bionic Mpn took a 7-0 lead. Bob Johansen took the kickoff for the Clits, but his blocking broke down, and he didn't make it past the twenty. Defensive pass interference on the next play moved the ball to the thirty, but two plays later, free safety Doug Schram intercepted a pass from Clits quarterback Paul Dimiero. Clits get licked Betz then hit wide receiver Dave Borsuk on the next play for Bionic Men’s second the touchdown of the day. Lineman Gene Gaulin, despite being hit hard by the Clits’ Paul Gould, caught the extra point, running the score to 14-0. The defense of both teams then took control of the game. Pass rushes by the Bionic’s Scheffer and Gaulin continually pressured Dimiero, catching him in the backfield or making him force his passes. Clit middle linebacker Bernie McKeever and lineman Joe Makinajian also-put on effective pass rushes late in the first half. The C'iits took the second half kickoff, and Dimiero hit Johansen on first down for a twenty yard gain. Then, the Bionic’s defense stepped in and Scheffer began getting to Dimiero again. Betz then Jed the Bionic Men to the Clits’ two yard line, but he was also tackled in the backtield, and the Clits held as Betz’ fifth down pass fell incomplete. Both teams moved up and down the field, but were unable to score in the second half, until defensive star Scheffer caught Dimiero in thy endzone for a two-point safety.

Buffalo held Neoit pretty much in check the third game.

Fredonia caught up somewhat, but with the score 10 7 in Buffalo's favor. Fvanco hit a powerful spike which returned the serve to the Bulls. Then. Fvanco’s serves and two blocks by Judi Baidak led to live points and the game. That was the end for Buffalo, however. Fredonia took charge, and whalloped Buffalo 13—4 in the fourth game. That seemed to dampen Buffalo's spirits, and their play was lifeless in the fifth and final game. On lop of that.

The reversal originally stemmed from a recommendation of the Student Assembly of the State University (SASU). The reappearance of frats and sororities are hoped to revive and stimulate more social activities on campus. “The camaraderie and brotherhood that frat members exryeQhnce is often the strongest bond they ever knowT" one student said. “Right now we need something perk up the campus,” he added.

However, according to SASU President Frank Jackalohe, many students on campus wanted to have the ban lifted, and those students who didn’t had no strong objections.

While an encouraging 37.5 million women are currently working full-time, the bad news is that they are working at low-paying, low-skill jobs. Though women accounted for the entire 1.7 million worker increase in the United States labor force since 1974, a recent U.S. Department of Labor report noted that underpay and underemployment for women are as severe as they’ve ever been. In fact, the average female college graduate can look forward to earning less than the average male high school dropout. In 1975, women on the median earned $6,957 compared to $12,152 for, men. Women on campuses are trying to combat the dismal employment situation _ ■faculty. through career development organizations. At Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, the Women’s Career Development counseling, Center sponsors career literature and an internship program in which qualified applicants are given specific work projects to complete for some business corporations. The Center also provides scholarships and loan programs for women wishing to pusue further education. The Center at Wright State has much to work with on its own campus. A class action suit was recently filed against the University hy seven former instructors in Department charging the discriminatory tenure practices against women. The suit, which may be the first on this issue, was filed in federal district court and seeks $4 million in damages. Named as defendants are current and former members of the University’s Board of Trustees and English Department ’ Women have been able to infiltrate the ranks of male-dominated jobs in such areas as law and medicine. Since 1962, the number of women lawyers has more than tripled to 25,000 and the number of women doctors has increased t\yo and a half times to 34,000. But in more traditional fields for women there is a surprising rise in the number of women working as 4 clerk or waitress. The Labor Department reports that today 60 out of every 100 women workers are saleswomen, waitresses, hairdressers or clerks while the ratio was 52 of every 100 in 1962. In Berkeley, the Refuse Collection Department has just hired a woman as trash collector for the first time, under the non-profit educational group founded in 1962 specifically works to expand career opportunities for women.

This meant picking up a 100-pound bag of cement and lifting it to different levels. Reiff is part of the number of women in non-traditional fields such as carpentry, plumbing and auto mechanics that has more than tripled since 1962.

The shots, supplied locally by the Erie County HealtfT Department, are subsidized by a $135 million Federal appropriation for a national swine flu immunization program. Swine flu, which is actually an epidemic prevalen t among pigs, has not caused widespread human outbreaks since the First World Wai. However, Diiector ot University Health Seivicfs Dr. M.L. Musselman urges the University community to take advantage of the vaccines. Tests have shown that no one today has any resistance against swine flu, he said, adding that he intends to be vaccinated himself, The vaccine, administered through air injection guns, contains swine flue viruses that have been killed. These will precipitate the production of antibodies which render the person immune to any subsequent live swine flu virus. Second shot needed A July 15th circular from the United States Department of Health, Education and Welfare states: “One shot will protect most people from swine flu during the next flu season; however, either a second The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only summer by The during the Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

Our present plan is to give one shot. If swine flu shows up somewhere, we will offeranother shot." Sign ’em up On Sunday, students will be asked to split up into one of five committees: Platform, Affirmative Action, SUNY Budget, Campus Organizing, or Unionization. These committees whll devote Sunday to drawing up plans of action to improve the lot of students in each area. The Platform Committee will be primarily concerned with drawing up a list of priorities which will be submitted to the SA Senate for action. The committees will continue to meet as standing SA Committees until their goals are reached. The program is open to all students in the University, and attendance «wifi be required for SA Senate members. Awareness was the theme sounded by Schwartz as the main reason for setting up the workshops and committees. “Too often, the Senate looks at one side of a situation,” he said. “Hopefully, these committees will raise the level of consciousness about what’s going on on campus and in SUN„Y,” he added. SA3U delegate Lynn Bittner, who organized the program along with Schwartz, feels the committees will shake up the Senate. She said, “The Senate has meetings every two weeks and passes resolutions that don’t mean anything.” She hopes these committees will “get as many people as possible involved.” Persons wishing to receive the vaccine must first sign a re | ease sheet and arc required to remain under observa tion 15 minutes after the injection. “This is j ust a precau tion in case anyone should have an immediate reaction, and it has never happened as far as we know said Musselman.

Back anthropology California and forth between her Los Angeles home and her car she trudges, loading it up with everything that’ll make her year at UC Riverside that much more enjoyable. Suddenly, as Ford steps off her porch with a small planter, a passing L.A. cop screeches to a halt, leaps from his car, slaps a pair of handcuffs on her and reads her rights. The planter, it turns out, contains five slender marijuana plants. Melanie Ford is UNDER ARREST. What does she do? It’s a familiar scene these days, even as polls show 27 million Americans puffing the funny weed and even as some states loosen up their laws governing its use. But people are still faced with so 416,000 last year alone marijuana arrests one’s actions when confronted with the police have tremendous legal implications that could eventually spell the difference between acquittal and convictionLawyers stress the importance of paying great attention to search and arrest procedures because the great majority of criminal cases never go to trial. In Detroit, only five percent of people arrested actually to to court; in Houston, just two percent of 16,000 people arrested in 1970 ever got their day in court, according to a massive legal study made that year. (CPS) — - - Cardinal rule While search and arrest laws are as hopelessly confusing for lawyers, judges and police forces as, they are for normal people, there are still some basic do’s and don’ts regarding the police that all drug users should keep in their dope besotteri minds. The cardinal rule in dealing with the cops is, “When you’re not possessing, start confessing." At least, be as cooperative as possible if you’ve-got nothing to hide. If you do have something of the narcotic persuasion to conceal, the name of the game is to “be cool.” If you are stopped by the police while drivin the driver and passengers should immediately leave the car and walk back towards the police car in an unthreatening manner. This deft maneuver prevents the police from having legal cause to search the car The police, however, have been known to break the law themselves, so they may insist on looking through the car even if the driver and passengers are not in it. If this happens, tell the officer as politely as possible you don’t want to consent to a search. If the police persist, lawyers say it’s advisable to follow their orders but remember, you have still preserved your rights. Should the case ever wind its torturous way through the legal system and end up in court, the police action can be used in your favor. to do with As to the nagging question the dope when thecops pull .you over, the law indicates the be«'place is the bod.

The presentation was sponsored by the UUAB l.iherary (,'uild and the SA Speakers Bureau. Shatner’s lecture, presented in storytelling form, dealt with the of astronomical development man’s conception of •theory, faraway places and civilizations, 'and his progressive ability to travel to these new frontiers. The talk was spiced with, both illustrative and from entertaining recitations poems and books, such as Ray “Earthbound” and Bradbury’s H.G. Wells’ War of the Worlds and from plays including Bertolt Brecht’s, Galileo. of admiring Theory to reality . §hatner spoke of the theories expressed by science fiction writers & such as Jules Verne dealing with space, space travel, and life on other planets, commenting on how many of these theories have come to light in the Twentieth Century. Shatner’s concern with the relationship between himself as an actor and his audience was revealed in his attempts to develop a rapport with the audience by having them participate in the evening’s events. His methods exposed both creativity and innovativeness. Shatner the comedian At the beginning program, of requested Shatner to close the the their eyes and imagine the scenes in the poem, “Earthbound” as he explicitly described them. At another point, he had the audience help enact a scene from Julius Caesar by saying a specific line in unison after he read other lines by himself. He hoped to show how audience participation can be incorporated into playwriting. Shatner was delighted with the audience audience •participation, exclaiming afterwards, “It worked, didn’t it? it worked!” . A question and answer period followed Shatner's presentation. It featured both serious and ridiculous questions fyom youngsters and students alike. Laughter filled the air as Shatner joked with the crowd, telling anecdotes about the making of the television program “Star Trek" and the actors he worked with while starring in that show. The Star Trek series was cancalled seven years ago during its third season on television. Reruns of the show continue to be shown on the air. Shatner attributes the series’ cancellation* to bavl ratings tlnekwere in part due to the poor time slot the program occupied during its last year Friday night at I 0 p.m.). A possibility exists for the return of the Star Trek series if the Star Trek movie, which will be re-leased in December of 1977, is at least a moderate success. If brought back on the air, each “Star Trek” episode will be extended to about one and one half to two hours long. Star Trek movie. The script is being formed, and Shatner has already signed a contract, to do the film. Leonard Nimoy, who played Mr. Spock in the television series, is in the negotiation stages with the creators of the film. The film will have a high budget, costing approximately seven to eight million dollars. The script will be open-ended in order to allow for possible sequels to the first movie. .During the question and answer period. Shatner, who has been acting since age six, expressed his desire during the presentation to “present to you something of mine,' too.” He wanted the audience to recognize him as an actor first and as “Captain Kirk” second. Yet questions about Star Trek were common. One student asked the Canadian born Shatner why he, a Shakesperean actor, decided to tape commercials for Loblaw supermarkets and Promise margarine. “Money,” was Shatner’s snappy retort.

From the time man rose out of the dust and acquired intelligence, he has looked at the moon with awe, thus a prolific amount of folklore has naturally grown out, of that bright sphere. One myth, believed by almost everyone in its time, claimed that a person would go crazy if moonlight shone on the face during sleep. The word “lunatic” which is derived from “luna,” the Latin word for moon, testifies to this belief. Numerous idolized literary figures have clung to the belief that the noon affects the mind and have gone to great length propounding the idea. In Paradise Lost John Milton spoke of “Demoniac moping melancholy, and moon-struck madness.” The himself, Bard immortal Shakespeare, had Othello recite these memorable lines: , It is the very error of the moon She comes more nearer the earth than she has wont And makes man mad. Hollywood has perpetuated many of the myths involved, most notable of which is the werewolf, that Mr. Hyde, who when bathed by the light of the moon, breaks out in a horrifying cover of hair and delights in a carousing feat of ravenous plunder. Their study produced similar results in Ohio, where peaks in the murder an outpatient abortion clinic offering services and counseling.

These studies suggest that a tidal effect occurs in certain atmospheric phenomena, as well as in our seas. In fact, the ebbing and flowing tides caused by lunar, gravitation may be strong enough to be a contributing factor of earthquakes. Several scientists worldwide have concluded there is “a definite link between earthquake frequency and the phases of the moon.” They claim that shocks are most common at the new and full moons when the moon and sun eclipse one another augmenting thus their gravitational energy. of the Journal of Psychiatry which showed a correlation between murders and changing phases of the moon.

We would like to point out that for our purposes “labelling” is to some extent necessary. We are asking people to volunteer for a variety of different projects in the Health Care Area, and it is necessary to explain what the project is about in as short amount of space as possible. If you feel, that this part of the Brochure needs to be, and can be better written, then I am requesting your help in rewriting this section of the Brochure. We would like very much to set up a meeting with you (or anyone interested in this subject). We are all for doing whatever we can to help remove the stigma or psychiatric care, and are anxious to wofk with you. Please contact us at the CAC office, ' 831-3609, or stop by Room 345 Norton Hall. Thanking you in advance for your cooperation. Jim, Mooney, Russ Cooper Co-Coordinators, Health Care Inexcusable mutilation To the Cditor. Perhaps 1 am pushing my luck with The Spectrum by submitting a third letter in the one week, but this week seems to have had a backlog of issues requiring comment. This is a letter of protest to The Spectrum for printing the PODER/BSU letter in the manner seen in Wednesday’s paper. It is inexcusable to print a letter with the first five lines having all the words running together. That was a mistake of style, but printing the figure $120,000 instead of $120.00 was a mistake of substance. What The Spectrum has done is to destroy the reasoning contained in that paragraph, and make the letter appear senseless. I know the figure in the letter was $120.00, because I saw a copy prior to Wednesday. This mistake, no doubt unintentional, is particularly disheartening because I went to Rich Korman, Editor-in-Chief, earlier this year, and we reached an agreement that Student Association and The Spectrum would try to encourage opinions from groups on campus that have traditionally been by passed in the media. One way was to circulate a letter encouraging Guest Opinions and letters to The Spectrum, it is unfortunate that one of the first responses should be presented in a mutilated fashion. I hope that PODER and BSU will not believe that their letter was purposely fouled-up, and that they will not be discouraged from writing in the future. I also trust The Spectrum will not repeat any similar mistakes. ' Steve Spiegel Executive Vice President Student Association This strange, distorted land To the Editor. As a member of the student senate, I voted against the proposal that UUAB have a special line for minority entertainment. 1 felt a lot of pressure in the Senate to vote for it (including Stu Ellison’s call for a roll call vote. What bffice are you running for in the” spring, Stuart?). that a I don’t agree with the thought “substantial” amount of money should be separated for a special interest group. The minority students, or the Jewish students, or the students with science courses, or however you want to break them up, shouldn’t be handed something they aren’t willing to work for. It’s a well known fact (or is it?) that this year’s budget has a large allocation for minority interests because ot\ the pressure put on the government last year. The Executive Committee hid in someone’s house because ot the demands put on them by Minority Affairs. It was brought up at the Senate that if the minority students wanted to do their own the simply join programming, they \could committees. If any group complained to me that they didn’i like the films or music, I’d tell them the same thing. 1 am not a racist; as Ed Guity called me and the other members of the Senate who seemed to oppose him. It’s just that I don’t agree with his views. Separation won’t solve the problems that Mr. Guity finds existing. 1 really think the answer is to work together. If it can’t be done in this strange, distorted land called UB, then how will we do it in the “real” Guest Opinion by Richard A. Siggelkow It has come to, my attention that a recently adopted policy by The Spectrum now precludes publication of paid advertisements announcing visits by military recruiters to this campus? The present instance involves a Marine Corps notice that its recruiters would be interviewing interested students on a given date. Apparently the rationale to reject the item was that such ads previously had “offended” some readers, leading The Spectrum staff to bow to pressure, and letting political feelings block reasonable access to different points of view. I have no desire to discuss the relative merits of our military establishment, and 1 imagine that the courtsajthough 1 am not absolutely certain rule in favor of The Spectrum's certain “rightT accept to refuse to advertisements. However, it is precisely because of the exercise of this censorship power by the editor amt his staff that the issue is so critical. The concern here is also not with potentially libelous or “pornographic” material, but refers to a modest, paid advertisement about a professional opportunity. While°~such advertisements may not be perceived by. some as related to the First Amendment, I submit that they do fall within that arena. Censorship suggests that certain news or advertising can be deemed improper and rejected without comment or explanation by those charged with the dissemination of items that concern the campus community. We should always be concerned, no matter the issue, when any individual or group of persons authorized to establish policy superimpose their own values on others. Such a reputation will jeopardize the credibility of the student- controlled press, and nowhere is freedom of speech more important than on a college campus. Nor can freedom of expression be limited to one point of view. This action may well violate the rights of other students, whose contributions in the form of student fees directly support the publication, and who may be sincerely interested in a military career. We should feel as strongly about this if only one student in the entire community is interested in learning about this matter, since he or she could otherwise be denied the freedom either to take advantage of, or ignore, the offer. Many student editors erroneously think the • Bill of Rights applies to them. There is no such creature as a Constitutional freedom of the press that applies to editors; the Constitutional freedoms instead defend the rights of publishers. If a campus newspaper is regularly published or subsidized in this case, receiving significant support through student activity fees levied through granting actions of the student government and collected by the institution these “freedoms” should not lightly be denied the student body. The student editor, ip such instances, does not have any inherent rights. The source of financial support determines who is the actual publisher. If the newspaper were sued for any reason, the student government which authorizes support money would likely be a party to the suit. Damages, if any, wduld be covered in part from the previously allocated mandatory student fee resources. 1 maintain that a student press should be completely free and operate outside the control of any group, including student government. The Spectrum would best be sustained completely by outside advertising and should not be dependent on any student fee system for support, the newspaper has the obligation to keep its readership informed about any newly adopted restrictive policy. It would be wiser "to separate the newspaper from the school and let the editors have their — - - freedom, along with a taste of responsibility as well. Many of America’s greatest college newspapers are published by corporations that arc financially separate from the institution. This includes.the Harvard Crimson, Michigan Daily, Cornell Daily Sun. The Daily lllini. The Wisconsin Daily Cardinal, and several others, but these are in a decided minority compared to those financially supported or subsidized through student activity fees. They also do not receive free rent, light and heat. We should abhor secrecy in any form. It would also be more open and honest if the editor and staff decided to run the notice, while simultaneously editorializing, if this is their judgement, against such types of future advertising. This would at least offer the University community a chance to respond loan otherwise completely restrictive policy that clearly infringes upon the rights of the sponsoring readership. Siggel'kow is Vice President for Student Affairs and a Professor in the Faculty of Educational Studies. All religions considered The criticism: JSU President Allan Clifford was figure was cited last year to suppqrt another JSU demand. THIS FIGURE IS WRONG. Other than the fact that an appeal to percentages in matters of religious holidays has no real relevance, the percentage of Jews on this campus is 11.8%, based on computer read-out sheets provided by Admissions and Records, Roman Catholics make up 38.4% and Protestant 17.4%, while No Preference is 17.9% Perhaps it would be more appropriate to have off Yom Kippur instead of Columbus Day.

But we must be ever a'Ware of all religions and their holidays, regardless of the percentage, because it is just as meaningful to persons involved. quoted as saying ”... in a University where the (Jewish?) population makes up approximately twenty percent of the student body.” A similar Rod Saunders Campus Minister To the Editor. On Oct. 4, 1976, an article appeared entitled “JSU protests classes on Jewish high holidays.” While the issue itself may indeed he worthy of support, there is one question and one criticism that needs to be made. The question: Why was the protest made at a time far too late to have any real affect on the “Calendar?” This timing suggests a questionable political pressuring. The Calendar committee should receive some praise in its planning of this year's Haster-Passover/Spring Recess, which is so planned because of discussions with religious representatives two years ago. Gallery 219 ’he Editor. I was extremely upset over the letter sent to The 'Spectrum by William Bernhardt, former UUAB Visual Arts Chairman. The least Mr. Bernhardt could have done was give me the opportunity to speak to him about his resignation. Mr. Bernhardt was chairman for approximately two weeks. He came into the office three times. Each time to complain about the money that was given to UUAB Visual Arts, Mr. Bernhardt knew about the budget of the Visual Arts Committee when he took on the job. SI,274.00 is not chicken feed. A lot can be cjone with that money. 'That is why we originally picked Mr. Bernhardt. He was very enthusiastic and willing to bring in art exhibits at little or no cost. 1 personally asked if he could bring student exhibits to this'school. My idea was that there are many art students who need a place to exhibit their work. Gallery 219 is definitely the place. In the past the Visual Arts Committee has fallen into disfavor among the majority of U.B. students. Very few people realize that there is a Gallery on this campus. Sub-Board J, realizing this, has decided to make a last effort at keeping the Gallery open. This is a probationary year. By quitting, Mr. Bernhardt has further hurt the Visual Arts program. Acting Visual Arts Chairman Steven Parr in one week has done a superb job. He has already started programming and has gotten together a committee. If Mr. Bernhardt would have worked instead of complained, he could have produced favorable results. One thing for all of us to realize is that this is a student run Gallery.

This is in reply to Monday’s editorial in Spectrum entitled, UUAB and Apartheid. 1 feel that the editorial was extremely vague in that it left the stain of apartheid and racism on UUAB, while never really getting down to the basic issues. UUAB the University Union Activities Board is an organization that is designed to service al' the students at this University. It should not cater to any one specific group. All of the committees are open and anyone can join them! Minority as well as Majority students are urged to attend. The term racism is a very ambiguous label used to cloud an issue. By calling someone a racist you can use the sane method that was used during the 50’s by calling someone a Communist. If someone labels you a racist you are one. Is UUAB racist for spending $12,000.00 on a minority concert? UUAB spent more on the Norman Conners concert than any other concert in recent memory. Minority students were upset over the fact that David Sanborn (a white performer) was on the bill. Who are the racists nowl It is absurd to think that UUAB by trying to get the best talent available has been chastised because one of the performers was white. We should have done Norman Conners alone and then we wouldn’t have had any problems. A major mistake on The Specttrum's part is their assumption that UUAB feels negatively towards minority concerts. UUAB doesn’t care how many concerts the BSU or PODER presents. But if a minority organization is doing something in conjunction with UUAB there should be strict controls set up by UUAB. This is just sensible The — — business practice. Everyone agrees that the Student Association placates special interest groups. This is WRONG. But because S.A. continues to practice such ridiculous practices must Sub Board be forced to! Sub Board represents all the student governments on campus. By catering to minority groups specifically we discriminate against white students. By making separate lines for white and minority students we just increase the problems between students on this campus. We have been brought up in the era of integration. Are we now preaching separation? I think we all run into a problem for a definition of minority. I’ve always been brought up to believe that Jews were minorities. But I’ve been told by the BSU representatives at the Finance Committee last year that Minorities were “NOT JEWS.” Even though Jews are still a minority at this campus. Now are Puerto Ricans minorities? Nobody seems to make much reference to that fact. Everything done through Minority Affairs is black. There are other minorities on this campus, and they aren’t being - represented! I don t think its time tO' panic and change the system. We have to work harder within the system. There is no barrier to minority input in UUAB. I feel it is the job of the Minorities Affairs Co-ordinator Ed Guity to get qualified, interested minority students involved in S.A., UUAB, and Sub Board. We have been seeking the input but so far it hasn’t worked! Jeff Lessoff UtJAB Division Director Page ten . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 10 November 1976 directly elected are on the Assembly also’ but that body is 52 students, by no means the same group as the Senate.N-'SHould I believe Senator Ferst is ignorant, or perhaps trying to mislead the student body? When Mr. Ferst talks of the Senate being removed from public exposure, he again speaks without facts. The Senate and Task Force meetings are publicized inside The Spectrum and on the bapkpage, additionally notices are posted- in Norton Union. The first Senate meeting was covered by Chuck Greenberg, Campus Editor and a story appeared in The Spectrum. At the second meeting in Haas lounge, there was a photographer present, but ; The Senate in addition to being the ultimate policy body of the Student Association, is also a forum for the free exchange of ideas. It is worthy to note that Mr. Ferst’s arguments in the Senate so lacked the for.ce of intelligence and sound reasoning that he was able to persuade only one other Senator to his point of view; this was out of forty-three (43) present. Having had his say in the Senate, and not being accepted, Mr. Ferst then resorts to engaging in personalities and taking cheap shots at the Senate in the press. (Such immature and unfair behavior is not allowed in the Senate.) Mr. Ferst accuses the Senate of lacking principal and integrity, yet the only possible example he gives is not voting in agreement with Mr. Ferst. He must be a very astute judge of character to decide 45 individuals are morally lacking after having been in the same room with most of them only twice. He further accuses the Senate of being elite and not oriented toward students. Since he did not elaborate on what he meant by elite, and didn’t supply any proof, it is difficult to accept such a remark as anything more than a well-worn cliche. Putting aside the negative connotation of elite, elite is also when someone takes the time to get involved, to become informed and take an active, rather than passive role in society. In that respect, the Senate is elite, and they should be commendecj for it, As being student oriented, the Senate is made up of forty-five (45) students, seventeen (17) of which are elected directly frbm the student body and the other twenty-eight (28) are elected from the representative Task Forces, this year’s Senate is probably the most diverse and representative one to\not yet. I’m also surprised that Mr. Ferst says the Senate allocates the budget, when it is the Financial Assembly that does that. The 17 Senate members no story was written. The reasons that the Senate overwhelmingly defeated Mr. Ferst’s amendment against spending any funds on refreshments were the realization that any group involves sociafaspects; and in that respect the Senate should be allowed at least the same as a small club on occasion. The few times a year refreshments are served, are for the purposes of better acquainting the members so they can better work together, and to show some small token of appreciation for the long hours of volunteer work they put in. I don’t mean to scare any Senators off, but they put in about 126 hours in an academic year, many put in much more. The Senate doesn’t allocate the money to itself anyway. As Executive Vice President and Senate Chairman, I am charged with facilitating the progress of the Senate, so the money comes out of my budget lincbecause I feel better relations in the Senate will rdisult in better work from the Senate for the student body; for two hundred ($200.00) dollars a year it’s a good investment. Let me make a suggestion to Mr. Ferst, that since the vote was 41-2, that he consider the possibility that he was wrong on this issue. Further, since he seems to be an individual of abounding time and energy; that he find more pressing issues affecting students to bring before the Senate. Steven Spiegel Executive Vice President Student Association Going backward To the Editor. I m deeply troubled by the underlying principles regarding minority fundings. I as a student, feel that the minority groups are out of line. They aren’t willing to listen, instead they demand action for what is “rightfully theirs.” Now the question arises, what is rightfully theirs? Who gave them those rights I would personally like to know. It seems to me that the Blacks are doing most of the protesting. They claim that they paid their activity fees and thus are now entitled to funds for their own recreation. What about the Chinese, Japanese, West Indians, the Arabs, the Europeans, the Latins they also paid their activity fees. Now I know someone would say they’re included in the minority fundings, but are they? Why should the blacks be a favored representatives - - , minority, by funding them are we discriminating against other minority groups? What about the minority of blacks who don’t want the same things, should the majority of blacks rule their lives. By doing so, aren’t they being as prejudiced as they claim the whites are being? What are we dealing with, is it on a student to student basis, or is it race against race, or minority against majority. I feel that the whole matter can be resolved if we deal with it on a student to student level instead of making a racial issue out of it. it seems to me thst instead of going forward, we are going backwafd. Do we want to go back to the way it was before when everything was separate but equal? Without knowing someone, how can you possibly get along with them and understand them? A Concerned Student �TRB John Adams didn’t wait for the inaugural after Jefferson beat him for the presidency; when the day came he slipped out of the brand new White House and the drab little capital in his coach at four in the morning, fourteen days later he reached Quincy having, as he wrote “trotted the bogs five hundred miles.” He couldn’t bear the ch'agrin of seeing his rival sworn in, and Jefferson walked quietly over the Capitol from Conrad’s boarding house to take the oath by himself. That was 1801. We like the 'gracious things President Ford and President-elect Carter are saying to each other now. It makes us all a little taller. On January 20 the two of them will ride up Pennsylvania Avenue between crowds and you won’t know by their face# what mean things the President was recently saying about his rival, or that Carter called Ford “weak, timid, vacillating and unable to lead.” They will preserve this courtesy because they are gentlemen. And because they love their country. The late, great managing editor of the 57. Louis Post Dispatch, O.K. Bovard, once instructed a brash young Washington correspondent who was writing, flippantly ibout such another Inaugural ride, “Young nan, when you write about that' I want you ;o life your hat!” He explained that the ride represented one of the better things in our democracy. Looking back on it all, we can’t see that ■the campaign issues were drowned in (trivialities Arthur as some assert. it; Jr. had a hard time of in the Schlesinger, end he voted for Carter he exclaimed in the Wall Street Journal, “But whal -an abysmal; demeaning, offensive empty campaign on particularly the blacks, can claim they put Carter over. The argupient promises to be reasonably bland, in the gentelmanly tone, we trust, of one comment hr the election of 1884, both their parts. What a hell of a way to celebrate the Bicentennial!” All we can say is that presidential candidates have a language of their own; it is true that Messrs. Carter and Ford are hardly charismatic figures but experience has taught politicians that it is unwise to sharpen the issues too much. Nixon said almost nothing in 1972 and got a land-slide from who tried to be specific; so did Adlai Stevenson and Barry Goldwater they got clobbered, too. Our system puts a premium on ambiguity except the largest — issues, One encouraging aspect was the knee-jerk reaction from the stock market when Carter won. Wall Street seemed to have understood the election. We had gone out the day before and voted for the man who proposed never to lie, mislead or deceive us, and wondered if after all there was any real difference between the candidates and then the next day the stock market had a gratifying tizzy and dropped nine points. Not that we want the market to fall but we have never known a time when Wall Street knew where its bread buttered; Mr. Ford and his was Hoover-minded economic advisers have created inflation, recession and decline, all at once, yet top business leaders are all for him, just as they all hated Roosevelt in the 30’s when he was saving the free enterprise system. We shall argue about this election for years. If the campaign had lasted another two weeks would Ford have won? If McCarthy had been on all the ballots would he have tipped it? In a squeaker like this practically every supporting group, and IONITE DRINK iT DROWN ' r “We should elect Mr. Cleveland to the public office which he is so admirably qualified to fill, and remand Mr. Blaine to the private life which he is so eminently fitted to adorn.” We got a greeting from Ronald Reagan just before the election which addressed us as “Dear Friend,” he confided, “I am terribly concerned that the liberals and left-wing elements in our country are going to capture both the Congress and the White House this year.” Then he made his revelation: “And make no mistake about it Jimmy Carter is a liberal.” He made these intimate disclosures to us just before the election and in a postscript (in blue longhand) he generously offered to mail us his book if we contributed $15 to his new right-wing action group in the next fortnight. Signed, “R.R.” — It makes us wonder what will happen to the Grand Old Party. R.R.’s worst apprehensions have come true. Democrats control the Seriate, House, most of the governorships, and the White House. The tough crew behind/ Reagan seems to be spear-headed by Richard Viguerie, the direct-mail specialist who was chief fund-raiser for Alabana governor Wallace before Wallace betrayed him by supporting Carter. Viguerie Says “the Republican Party is an institutional disaster.” Re-orientation of the two party system may be one result of this strangely fascinating 1976 dull election. There’s a 10 week transition period now before peanut farmer Jimmy Carter takes oath of office next January 20 on the steps of the Capitol, and it is one of the most interesting intervals in America’s extraordinary government. In this long lag when nothing appears to happen most • don’t hurry like that, Mr. Carter will appoint his liason man with the White House on foreign affairs, very likely the next secretary-of-state. He will watch the economic indicators and the stock market. He' will roam around for his Cabinet: Eisenhower picked his Cabinet by December 1; Nixon, December 11;Kennedy December 17. The president-elect may announce that his Cabinet will be available to answer questions in Congress. Fritz Mondale recommended this before he ever thought of running for Vice president, in his book “The Accountability of Power.” And Jimmy Carter, we are reminded by professor Philippa Strum, of Brooklyn College, said the same thing in his “Wiry Not the Best” I believe that it would be helpful here to have members of the cabinet appear before joint sessions of the Congress to answer written and' verbal questions, preferably with live television coverage, for the whole nation to view.” Apparently the two men arrived at their common opinion" independently. Well, we shall see. — “ ... The most interesting thing for and for the nation, of course, Washington whether Carter can handle his new Jimmy is blow There have been only job, or will it. three times like this in the century, as we an activist liberal president, a big figure majority in Congress of his own party, and a huge pil6-up of backed up social needs. Wilson was the first; FDR second; Kennedy-Johnson third. For 14 of the past 22 years there has been divided government in Washington. This included the last eight. The economy is in such shape that Lawrence Klein, Carter’s top economic adviser, says it shouldn’t wait to January 20 for Federal stimulus. What happens?

Almost seventh The Bulls finished only a few points out of seventh place, and Gantz felt that if it hadn’t been for some poor service in a local restaurant, Buffalo might have been seventh. The Bulls were supposed to eat breakfast at 9 a.m. on Saturday, but service was slow, and so the Bulls ate too late. In addition, the Bulls have no depth, which also hurts when one runner or more have a bad race. “Unless everyone on the team runs their best race, we’re in trouble,” Gantz said. The next (and final) test for the Bulls will be at the IC4A Championships in New York City later this month. However, since the team’s $1000 budget is nearly exhausted, several of the Bulls’ runners may have to chip in some of their own money in order to compete. �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor The women’s athletic program s undergoing some very big ;hanges this year, some because of rlealth, Education and Welfare’s Title IX, and some because of personnel, changes at the start of he year. The biggest change in jersonnel was the naming of Jetty Dimmick as Director of Women’s Athletics. Dimmick ormerly had been the women’s ennis coach.. (She still holds that josition.) Dimmick’s primary objective ifter taking charge of the Women's program was to write a jhilosophy, to give the program lome direction. In the past, it had rad none. One of the things which the tew philosophy discussed was the evel of competition that the earns would try to obtain. Vhereas men’s teams compete in Mvision I (the strongest division) xcept for hockey which is hvision II, there are no divisions or women’s teams. “The women /ould like to play the level of ompetition that allows us to go o local, state and national aurnaments,” Dimmick said. This means playing the stronger teams instead of merely local teams, to save money on travelling. “We really have upgraded schedules,” out Dimmick noted.' “We’re reaching out and expanding.” She cited tennis and volleyball as two teams that have 4one a lot of travelling this year to play top notch meals as men’s teams get, and money to hire their own trainers. In other areas covered by* Title IX, the women have equal access to facilities and equipment. Men cooperative The men’s program has not fought these changes. “The attitude in this department has opponents. been very positive towards the Another thing the program’s women’s program,” Dimmick said. “At this time, the spirit of new philosophy calls for is balance. Instead of spending large cooperation is really good to work sums on certain teams, and with.” comparatively little on others, The most visible change has each team will receive about the been in the area of public same amount.

The women now So far, only volleyball has have money for the same type of changed the format of its home Betty Dimmick matches. Dimmick said that volleyball coach Peter Weinreich was primarily responsible for this. Among other things, Weinreich has begun a pre-game clinic to get spectators involved in-volleyball, hired ah announcer to introduce the teams, and raffled off volleyball T-shirts home at matches. And although Weinreich didn’t plan this, the team has up come with some crowd-pleasing comebacks. Weinreich indeed has done an outstanding job. He is only a part-time coach (his full-time job is high school guidance according to counselor), yet 3234 MAIN STREET Near Winspear 8326666 DOaUt 8 rvliSter f ' • 22 Dimmick, he has done a full-time job, and a very professional one. IN addition to promoting his sport, Weinreich has guided the Bulls to a 13-7 record so far this year and a berth in the New York State Championship Tournament. It’s good to see the women’s program making such big strides. The one thing Dimmick would still .like to see is a staff of full-time coaches (only three of the six women’s coaches are full-time), but with the aid of Title IX and the cooperation of the men’s program, she may get ft.

The wolf, one of the more prominent of the animal species threatened by extinction, was discusse; in a program presented by the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee (BARC) in the Fillmore Room Wednesday. BARC presented a lecture about wolves, featuring “Rocky the Timber Wolf,” John Harris, of the American Association for the Preservation of Predatory Animals, informed the audience that legends and fairy tales have distorted the wolf’s image, perpetrating that nasty reputation of the “big, bad wolf.” Stories of wolves devouring innocent little girls and eating whole flocks of sheep have filled the minds and imaginations of children for centuries. The wolf is actually a relatively peaceful animal who is afraid of human beings and will not attack unless its life is threatened. Unlike humans, it will never kill for the sake of killing, but only when it is in need of nourishment. Wolves eat in packs and feed on herd animals, usually the weak and the president young who are incapable of caring for themselves. Thus, they play an important role in the ecological chain by eliminating those animals who are a burden to the herd and Would have a low chance of survival Ancestry Eve Fertig, a member of the presentation committee acquainted- the audience with the lifestyle of the wolf by providing background information on the wolf’s ancestry and development. Millions of years ago, the first early form of the wolf pr 0 to-wo1ves, lived in the southern portion of North America. They were divided into two species, the red wolf and the timber wolf, also known as The arctic silver wolf. Due to glacial movements, some wolves fled to Asia and Europe via intercontinental bridges, extant at the lime, while others, trapped by the glaciers, remained in southern North America. Coming in contact for the first time with colder climates in Northern Europe, the arctic wolf subsequently adapted to these climatic changes, becoming more like the animals we know today. Their silver coloring became white, blending in with the snow as a camoufalge, its legs became longer, and it grew larger in order to adapt to the more formidable prey found in' the northern — latitudes. The red wolf had trouble adapting to its new environment and in time it became extinct. Today there are only five hundred timber wolves surviving in North America, mostly in Michigan and Minnesota. The leaders of the pack enjoy privileges not extended to the others. Only the king and queen wolves are permitted to couple during the annual mating season nature's method of birth control. Unless one of the pair is prematurely killed, the dominant line will remain pure. The leaders will be the first to eat after a kill, however enough meat is usually left for the others. Nature’s reason - for granting the pair these privileges is that the welfare of the pack is highly dependant on the dominant members for the protection and security. Sad ending Fertig ended her speech with a few lines highlighting the movement to protect wolves. A movie, effective in evoking sympathy for the wolves’ plight, was then shown. Especially beautiful was a filmed narrative beginning with the birth of a litter of wolf cubs, following their growth to an age where they were ready to leave their mother. A charming moment in the film captured the four cubs playing together and was met with enthusiastic exclamations from the audience. The mood of the film quickly shifted when it ended by stating that only one of the four cubs would reach maturity, showing one of them in his death agony as a result of a bullet wound. The highlight of the evening came when Rocky, a real arctic silver wolf, was led on to the stage v Spectators were allowed in groups of three to pet the wolf. Rocky left the stage due to his fear of the crowd. Few of those who left still fostered their fear and image of the “big bad wolf.” 2 Michigan A in tradition Football a time-honored by Brett Kline Feature Fditor but be touched by the team spirit visible on every street corner and at least on home in every bar — Football touches the life of every student in Ann Arbor.

According to the roughly 2.400 applications that were received this year, around 800 students had some type of pre-law experience in or outside of the classroom, said Headrick, asserting that "experience provides expertise." "Don't expect to make a lot of money at first. It’s a practical ambition to want to make some money, but only a small percentage of those who graduate from law school actually go on to become rich.." After Headrick’s initial remarks, the floor was opened for questions. A student asked what effect a prior arrest and/or conviction would have on admission into this law school. After some deliberation. There are sometimes months of preparation involved in building a defense and the actual trial can take only a few days." he lamented, adding that he “once spent about five months preparing a case, only to have it decided within a matter of days." Regarding tuition, Headrick stated that a S2000 bill could be expected by in-state students, with State tuition assistance and scholarships available. Out-of-staters can expect to pay about S3000 with no financial aid. All students should anticipate added expenses for books and other sundry University, started the proceedings by asking the question . . . “Why be a lawyer?" “Take a good, cold, hard look at yourself,” the recently appointed dean and make a realistic continued, “. . assessment.

Ho\vevef. he stressed that the Perry Mason and Pettrochelli do not in any way indicate what the practice of law is really like. Headrick and his staff agreed that any past run-ins iwth the law would have.no impact on admission, but warned that the New York Stite Bar Association has the authority to make their own decision whether, to accept or reject an applicant, regardless of that applicant's expertise in the legal field. Enormous potential Headrick radiated a great deal of enthusiasm about the potential ot the Buffalo Law School becoming one of the best schools in the country. Since the State of New York has assumed the management of the UB law school, there has been a tremendous spirit of innovativeness, he items. explained.

Acceptable Criteria Law School Admissions staff member Robert Reiss responded Fliss 22 to a question about the criteria for acceptance used by this University. Index numbers from standardized tests, grades of undergraduate Thomas Headrick degree of difficulty of undergraduate studies and other taetors are considered. "We've found that generally, the harder the courses the applicant has takes, the better he does in law school." Reiss suggested. “Statistics have shown," Headrick added, "that semi-committed law students are usually failures when it comes time to practice law in the real world." endeavors, Headrick, even after years of experience, feels that there is nothing more SA Task Force refuses to support College s petition The Student Association (SA) Academic Affairs Task Force passed a unanimous resolution Iasi Monday condemning the actions of President Robert Ketter in closing Social Sciences College (SSC) in July. However, the resolution also said the Task Force did not find any of Ketter's actions "illegal," and therefore could not support a SSC petition which charged illegal procedures were used in the and College's termination. mediate de ma n ded im reinstatement.

The Task Force resolution was passed in response to a SSC request that SA support the College demanding petition reinstatement. The petition said political motivations were behind the closing and denounced the entire college chartering process. In studying the request, the Task Force last week heard t e sI i m on y SSC I r om representative Rubin Weeks and Barbara Howell, author of the Minority Report of,the Colleges Chartering Review Committee.

Riverwalk will link downtown Buffalo to downtown Tonuwanda and provide easy access to recreational facilities along the waterfront area. It is the lirst stage in the proposed . redevelopment ol the entire Niagara riverfront. According to James Carr. Executive Director ol the Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee, the concept lor the development of the waterfront is seen as an extension of Fredrick Law Olmstead's plan for Buffalo, which began in the second haJfof the 14th century. 11 is design included a network of parts .and connecting thorough fares, as evidenced in areas such as Delaware and Humboldt Parks connected by Lincoln. Chapin. Bidwell and Humboldt Parkways. Intertrail link-ups Riverwalk will connect such recreational 1 facilities as the trie Basin Marina, LaSalle Park. Broderick Park. Isle Viera and Niawanda Parks. Furthermore, the Rivcrwall is seen as a nucleus for a system of trails extending to Canada (the Bruce Trail), to Albany (the Barge Canal Trail), and to the Appalachian Trail System. When the project is completed, it will be possible to make a seventy-mile round trip route along the Riverwalk. and back to Bullalo via the Canadian route. The Riverwalk will be about fifteen leet wide and at various" points will follow existing roadways and railroad Tire first step The project will be financed by sources such as Block Grant. Lcunomic Community Development Development Act Grants, the Slate of New York, Federal Bikeway Demonstration Program Grants, and Water Conservation Fund Grants. Unfortunately, according to Can. an initial request for S625.000 for a demonstration project, stretching from Vulcan Street to the Barge.Canal, was turned down by the federal government. He feels, however, that, the total S2!4 million requested from the federal government will come through eventually.

According to Carr, the idea ol the water!rout's redevelopment has been around for a long tithe but has been latent. "Grandparents have come up to me and said that thev’vc been thinking about the area lot years, said Carr. SA executives center on minority Only recently.''however, have government officials given ihe thought much recognition. In l l)75. the Niagara River environmental Plan was adopted by the Regional Planning Board, iThis plan included a program for increasing pedestrian access to the riverfront. The Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee was created later in the year by joint action of Buffalo and Brie County. They were urged to be "tough and forceful" in promoting the preservation and renewal of the waterfront. tracks. Other portions will be constructed on and below the Thruway .and on platforms above the river. In all. it will be one continuous, uninterrupted route, that will serve not only bicycles and pedestrians, but crosscountry skiing in the winter. According to Carr, the waterfront has been a "neglected resource" of the Buffalo region. Pointing to the efforts of cities such as San Francisco. Now York. Boston and Toronto in developing their previously deteriorated waterfront districts. Can sees waterfront development as a means of improving Buffalo's generally negative image. Physical improvement of this image, he leels. would encourage business to, locate here, In addition, the waterfront is seen as a dramatic tourist attraction that could be connected in use with the soon to be constructed Buffalo Convention Center. problems by Lori Braunstein Spectrum Stall Writer Discussion at the Student Association (SA) Senate last Thursday centered oft a proposal by the Executive Committee calling Tor Sub-Board I to create within each of its divisions a system lor dealing with minority student problems and complaints. • According to the proposal, if any problems arise a minority board consisting of Sub-Board Directors and all the minority affairs coordinators will be convened. The proposal calls for a minority ;ilT;iiis line with the Senate urging that tt be given substantial funding. Heated debates ensued between those supporting and those opposing the proposal. Senator Rick Birdsall opposed the resolution, saying membership is open on all committees.-S.A. Minority Allairs Coordinator Ed Guity contended that although the committees are technically open, “for years and years we've been alienated from, these committees because we’ve been made to feel that we're not wanted Fairness Stib-Board Director Jon Roller said the organization's goal is to provide services catering to all. such as health care, "You re now asking to modify Sub-Board for minority interests." said Roller, who later charged that the proposal was calling for a separation in the University community. Others arguing against the proposal agreed. SA Student Affairs Director Lee Penes claimed that the proposal was not asking for separation.-, but "lor some measure ol fairness.. SA President Steve Schwartz maintained. "It is a fact that minority students are not involved in the committees. Unless minority students are given the opportunity we won’t have minority input. This proposition won’t hurt anyone." At this poiiit. Ld Guity added. “I believe the people here are nervous that something wrong will be done. We're not out to take anybody, we're just trying to get our fair share of the University." After liver an hour ot debate a roll call vote was taken. The proposition passed by a margin of 18 to 15. Voter registration problem Another matter discussed was the voter registration problem. Schwartz stated that lie and Student Association of the State University (SASU) delegate Lynn Bittner were working on a response to letters in The Spectrum. “Every one ol the applications was sent out. The Board ol E was not used to the Hood of requests they received." he continued, slating that SA will probably be tiling suit in stale court next week. The Board of Trustees meeting at Buffalo State College was also discussed. Schwartz said the meeting was worthwhile because the lie was Trustees had an opportunity to see what was going on to listening they seem be afraid because didn't Other actions included a resolution staling. “All clubs recognized by the Student Association must make public notice of the dale, time and place of each meeting they hold."

Marvel Comics publisher Stan Lee engaged in a whimsical time, impromptu discussion of how Marvel Comics and, at has become a multi-million dollar per year business enterprise. "If this sounds like a sales pitch for Marvel, so be it.” quipped Lee last Wednesday while describing the essence of the Marvel superhero as one of cynical reality.

Lee hated the typical team-up of comic characters who got along well together, never had problems and had enough money' to get them to wherever a crisis was brewing. Therefore. Lee. and artist Jack Kirby, created the Fantastic Four who suffered through real life problems during their exploits. Lee established; “there will be prime time, live action series about Spiderman. It will be heavy, rich, meaningful, dramatic . , and it'll probably flop." Spiderman will also have his own nationally syndicated newspaper TV, a . strip beginning January. I.

Rubella, C.erman Measles, is usually harmless to those who contract it. However, in pregnant women, the disease is often transmitted to the fetus, which may subsequently suffer congenital deformities'. Women who contract Rubella in their first four months of pregnancy run the greatest risk of having a deformed child. Division Director Bob Olds said the sole purpose of the screening is to prevent these congenital deformities by alerting susceptible individuals. Olds hopes to control the spread of the disease through immunization ot the University -community. "Outbreaks of Rubella in high schools and colleges have assumed increased importance.” according to Olds. “Recent Rubella outbreaks of a great extent occurred at Memphis State University and the University ot North Dakota. From previous studies we know that Rubella occurs in a seasonal pattern with incidence increases occurring in January, reaching a peak in April or May. and dropping to a level in August. Hence, our emphasis screening at this time," he explained. low on Century Theatre Screening process The screening process consists of a blood test which is administered by Medical Technology Department the physician’s students under supervision. The blood sample is tested for the presence ol Rubella antibodies. The antibody level in an immunized person generally remains stable for two to four years following the immunization, whether immunization occurred through vaccination or by having had the disease. After this time, an antibody boost is usually recommended, although the vaccine should not be administered in the two months preceding pregnancy or during pregnancy. Rubella screening will be held for the remainder ot the I*>76-77 school year. People having low antibody levels can receive free vaccination through Childrens Hospital in Buffalo.

Part of the crisis in Sourthern Africa is the ridiculous moral defense of separatism as a social policy, a policy, which is quite obviously meant to further white domination of national politics. Vet all the while the white minority governments claims apartheid facilitates the best interests of both races. In this country in recent years, the issue of separatism of the races has been raised by those who find more solace in racial solidarity than in trusting any ostensible good intentions of white America. Its basis rests today in recognition-of the strength of traditional ethnic racism, and a rejections of integration which lately can be blamed on the bitter busing controversy and challenges to Affirmative by Kenneth Johnson To look at rape without considering racism historical tradition which has led to the brutal lynching and execution of hundreds of innocent Black men in this country. This historical tradition cannot be denied, in the tace of. the facts that exist which document these outrageous acts of murder against Black men. Rape laws, although they did not say so on the surface, have, always been almost exclusvely for Black men. It is the pattern that has been established in and out ol the courts, which illustrates this point, for example in the last 40 years, 455 men have been executed for the crime of rape. Of that number. 405 were Black men accused of raping white women. No white man has'ever been executed in this country tor is - ' Action It is all too obvious today that the civil rights advances of the late sixties were made possible partly by happier economic times, and that racism and the conditions which nourish it are again an the rise. The minority coalition's boycott of UUAB's “minority concert" was apparently successful. But we find some of the arguments used to justify the boycott are nonetheless false. UUAB officials made their opposition to a minority concert line emphatically well known to the Sub Board Board of Directors last August. Part of their justification was racist. They implied that because of what happened at the Funkadelics- concert last year (co sponsored by the Black Student Union) and the ensuing damages to Clark Hall, that any concert money handed over to a minority organization would be similarly mismanaged, . But the other side of UUAB's argument was that even though they were white, they could successfully program concerts which met the needs of minority students. Of course, this was decried as insipidly naive and idealistic. As a practical goal of spending the student activity fee, however, we find this idealistic policy preferable to all alternatives in a student governmnet which does hot scatter its monies among various special interest groups. Unfortunately, the Student Association's style of allocation is geared toward placation of special interest groups. And so it is somewhat hypocritical to fight a minority concert line, especially when minority clubs are already well funded, and there are separate budgets for the Jewish Student Union, and its publication, Ari. raping a Black Sub Board's resistance to outside pressure groups and interests. But we hope that next year students will begin demanding that the student government effectively serve all the students' interests at the same time, and that it be accomplished by resisting the temptation to give up too much to special interest funding.

These alliances became the target of terror groups such as the KKK. which were fornfed by the old plantation owners, in order to regain their power, f.hey enacted the infamous Jim Crow laws which made the coming together of black and white in anyway. ;j crime. Rape was the most effective weapon to create the division. Rich while women were pul on pedestals, while poor Mtile women lived in poverty in return for the privilege of being the symbol of pure white womanhood, the precious property to he protected 'by while men. I very black man was depicted in the white communities as a savage potential rapist, who must be kdpt under control at all costs. Today, many of the old rape laws have been translated into new slatules which still maintain the racist nature of the older laws. They still provide for the oppression of black .peoplty.and the legal lynching of black men. in the courts. The long struggle for civil rights in this country, struck some serious blows to the system of racism which has plagued black folks for so long. The gains made in the bO’s did not eliminate racism, but only, pul it on the defensive. Singe that time we have seen a revival of racism and a counter-attack launched by racist forces in this country. recent years a new rash of rape charges brought against black men. many limes in the absence of any evidence. Many people would deny the fact that many innocent black men have been framed-up on rape charges. They lack the understanding ol what happens when a while woman reports shewas raped by a black man. I he police set out to find any black man. and the old pattern emerges. I he old stereo-types come to mind t-hat “all blacks look alike anyway;’’ so somepound of black flesh must and it doesn’t matter whose. In a case where a whitewoman reports she was raped by a white man. police'don't set out to 1 1 ncl' ilist any white mani [hey must have some evidence, some facts w hich point to a particular’man as (Ire rapist. A black man accused of raping a white woman is at a distinct disadvantage, and not only in the south, as many people believe. Racism rs functional all over the U S. and Buffalo. N 't . is no exception. Racism may be there has been Rich Korman — Woman. The pattern which has developed from the racist use of the rape charge is very interesting. The laws do not protect Black women. 1 he general assumption is that when a Black man rapes a Black woman, it’s no crime, and when a while man rapes a black woman, it is his right. In cases where womeg have used force to defend J themselves against rape, they are often treated as criminals. The case of JoAnn Little is ''probably the most famous, where she killed a white prison guard who attempted to rape her. By the same token, rape laws do not protect all while women either. I hey only protect those women who allow themselves to become instruments to be manipulated by society. These consciously either or while women unconsciously accept the notion that they are the property of while men. I hose white women who realize that they are not protected by rape laws, find that the administration of those laws, seem,to,put them on trial instead of the man accused. So wluil were rape laws designed lor? They were designed to, use the hypocrisy of "the protection of women." to keep black folks in their place. The crime of rape first became a capital offense in the pre-civil war era. as part of The difficult question of a separate minority concert line is really one of whether the student government writes off too large a portion of the student activity fee to special interest groups, or whether this policy of financial apartheid is best for all concerned. We don’t think so. We don't see how the student government can deny the minority students a special concert line in a year not especially noted for SA's or to deny a some what more sophisticated ii> northern cities, but that does not negate it's existence. Although mob lynchings were predominant in the south, the courts of the north provide a means for the legal lynching of black men in the north. Whether an innocent fnan is hung from a tree, incarcerated for the rest of his life, he is still the i victim of injustice. My own case is a clissic example of how rape and racism is used to imprison„innocent black men. All the elements are present which could lead to anofher railroading such as that of the attempt to.frame the Martin Attica brothers. I have the deepest sympathy for the women who have been raped, but the fact of the matter is that the rapist is still at-large. The officials with the help of the news media are attempting to dupe the public, and especially women into believing that the rapist has been apprehended, when in reality the real rapist is free to terrorize. The concern that has been generated around this case is the result of people being to recognize how the so-called criminal justice system works against poor people. Many people have a clear understanding of how rape racism is used in this country and have joined in my struggle for vindication in an atmosphere where racism is not allowed to to come to a prevail. 1 am not conclusion as to my guilt of innocense, that -is up to the jury-. What I am asking.for is a chance to clear my name at a fair trial. People who assume that I will receive a fair able trial because the constitution guarantees that right, hold a very naive conception of w;hat justice actually is in. America. They fail to recognize the double standard which has developed with the Criminal Justice System. This very shallow perspective will undoubtedly lead many people to stray from the real issues in my case, which have been' down-played for obvious reasons. The general feeling of apathy is people being djsplay many which counteracted by the work being done by the Committee to (Tear Kenneth Johnson and many other progressive groups and individuals. We are also fighting against the racist attitudes of many other people in our society. We are waging our battle through a process of education, shedding Light on the fallacies of the justice system. Poor people are fed up with being the victims of injustice when it is justice that they seek. Poor people are tired of being,the victims of brutality and many other criminal acts. The frustration of poor people with the American sy-Uortu of justice is coming to a head and creating a strong feeling of solidarity among them. The support behind my efforts to receive a fair trial is a strong expression of that feeling as well as an answer to racist accusations against me. In conclusion, I hope that my position on what this case is about is clear to the Reader. I have- no interest in discrediting, the victims, undoubtedly they have been raped. I am only interested in proving that they have made a mistake as to the identity of their attacker. I sympathize with all women and their concern for the increasing number of rapes occurring. Kape is a vicious and deplorable crime, and women have a right to be outraged each time a rape ocuTirs. I must offer a word of caution especially to white women, in their attempts to rectify the rape situation. The crime of rape must-not he allowed to blind you to the realities of how the crime is used to oppress the poor. To defend-a black man accused of this crime is not to deny that rape exists. It is to acknowledge an objective understanding of history, justice, and racism and their relationship to poor people. ice should be deeply a concerned with the case ol Kenneth Johnson. When I finally go to trial, ft Is essential that people show that concern by attending and observing. The racist criminal justice system must be made aware that the people are watching everything that goes on. and will tolerate nothing hut 'fairness, liven those who are skeptical will find that my brutal arrest and subsequent charging with rape, is a ifcgross miscarriage of justice.' I he evidence that I will present at the trial will prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am innocent. In the end, the public will have a clear understanding w,hy my defense committee’s slogan is "Hy Defending Kenneth Johnson.' we an'defending ourselves I” - . | ) �* the bull pen Nuclear industry in trouble In the htlilnr by David J. Rubin Special Features Fdiutr The major league baseball tree agent dratt an auction ot some ot the top baseball. Jalenl anywhere. What manager wouldn t have wet dreams about piloting a team with an outfield of Joe Rudi. Gary Matthews, and Reggie Jackson? What owner wouldn t have nightmares about paying them'* Too bad no team can sign more than two ol the twenty-lour tree agents available. Included in their ranks are about ten all-stais and another four or five qu.tyy ballplayers. But how interesting it is to examine the jockeying that is bound to go on after all the players arc sorted out and signed. Take the Yankees. They are the odds-on favorites to get Bobby Cirich., but just to make it interesting, let's say that George Steinbrenner is in a spending mood even lor him and the Yankees grab Wayne Garland as well. Then the Yankees could strike a bargaiij with San Francisco that would send Fd Figueroa and Dick Tidrow to the West Coast and bring, lo and behold. Bobby Mincer, back to Yankee Stadium's right field. With a healthy Flliol Maddox in center field, Mickey Rivers could be left as a designated hitter. Now before sending in any letters, realize that this is all frivolous fantasy. But there has to be some sort of wheeling and dealing that will go on once the free agents lose their freedom again. It's not the Yankees, but the Mets that really hold all the interesting it’s because of their overall team imbalance. For instance, let’s say the Met front office opens its rarely-used wallei and coaxes Reggie Jackson to sign.-That could pave the way for a trade with, perhaps the Boston Red Sox. The Mets could give up Dave Kingman, who might easily hit 75 home runs in Fenway Park, and Jerry Koosman, ripe for a trade after last year's bcst-cver performance. In return the Mets could demand Dwight Fvans for starters. But then things get interesting. It the Red Sox can corral Grich. they could throw in Rick Burleson along with I'vans. This all means the Mets would have an outfield ot Jackson. Lee Ma//.illi. and bvans. and an infield of Ld Kranepool. Felix Millan. and Burleson. Or, maybe Grich could move to Shea and the Phillies could otter Reggie Jackson enough to go back to his hometown ol Philadelphia. Then the Mets might offer Koosman and Millan (The Phillies need a second baseman because they lost Dave Cash in the tree agent dial!) and in return get Garry Maddox and surprise! Tug McGraw, Very often, though, the needs of teams make it difficult for them to deal directly with each other. For instance one team may be willing to give up outfielders for pitching, and although another team needs outfielders, it can only afford to give up infielding. This sets the stage for one of those intricate three-way deals. For instance, just for argument’s sake, say (inch signs with the Mets, Gullett with the Yankees, artel Jackson with the Dodgers,.Now the Mets can give up Koosinan and Bud Harrelson to the Dodgers, who send Bill Buckner and Bill Russell over to the Yankees who put I d Figueroa and billot Maddox on a subway over to Queens. Now the Mets have a top shortstop, and a class outfielder, the Yankees have top shortstop and a third class outfielder, and, the Dodgers have an improved outfield, weakened infield, and a top led handed pitcher.

Patterson criticized an article in The S/teemon Tty Rob Cohen titled. "Nuclear Waste Still a Problem.". The issue of nuclear power is not one which directly affects students, nor for that matter, citizens of Buffalo except through our electric bills. The written media has blacked out Buffalo on nuclear power. The Hnjitiln Evening Yen s owns a large share of Niagara Mcrhawk. the local electric utility. tShd publishes glowing releases from the Sy racusewentral office of Niagara Mohawk. The only light in this blackout comes from The Spectrum or out »f town newspapers like the AVic York Times. Wall Street Journal' or Niagara (luzette (is that right?)., I Therefore, Rob Cohen and the S/ieetrjim should be congratulated for at least discussing the nuclear power question.) Mr. Patterson's complaint with the Rob Cohen article on nuclear wastes is that the assertions in that article were not backed with facts. Rob Cohen pointed out that President Ford’s proposal was that the government pul up the capital for facilities which recycle these If plutonium. operated facilities successfully, then private industry would buy them back after a year. As distasteful as the President's proposal is. it is a fact. Mr. Patterson, riot an assertion. The President did make this proposal, so The S/ieeinnn cannot be faulted here. lire President's proposal essentially hands over St billion to Allied .Chemical, Gulf, Shell and Westinghouse and says, “here's some play money from your hard working citizens out there." Mr., Patterson asserts that those four corporations cannot scrape it together, "that private industry is incapable of making such a large capital investment." That's hard to believe. Back that assertion with facts! if government puts up My own view is why then the our capital, and lakes the risks government should take the profits and have the control. If private industry puts up the money, and takes the. risks, then private industry should take the profits. And if it’s neither milk nor meat, then the government should take part of the profits and have part of the eoiftrol. That is (or was) not the President's proposal. That's a ' fact. It was recommended by the President's advisors that he announce this Sept. 7 proposal at the United Nations September 27, The announcement was delayed until the end of October. Mr. Cohen indicates the reason for the delay is the President's "chronic indecisiveness." It is an assertion by Mr. Cohen, but whether it is backed by facts, or could be classified as "shoddy journalism” is not clear. The President did delay his response for a month and a half. The nuclear industry is coming on some hard times. Nuclear power is a bad investment. It is not incumbent on us citizens to bail out the nuclear industry.

The decision by Transportation Secretary William Coleman involves the enforcement of a 1966 law requiring some sort of passive crash-restraint system in all new autos. Coleman will decide what type of device will be ordered into production and when. Passive restraints, unlike safety belts, work automatically in a crash, requiring no prior effort on the part of the occupant in order to be effective. At this time, the air bag seems to be the most practical and efficient device capable of compliance. If installed in all new cars, its advocates say it could save thousands of lives annually in serious crashes. Undergrads $40.00 plus tax Grad.

Ditlow also said that there is a moderately good chance for a favorable (pro-bag) decision. He also said that eVen if Coleman’s decision is against air bag implementation, a new Transportation Secretary under the Carter administration could modify the decision if he deemed it proper. The big four auto makers have opposed the air bag since its development in 1965, on grounds that the bag would generate excessive increases4lTSiito prices and limit the buyer’s freedom not to be protected,/ General Mmors and Chrysler Corporation have estifnated the cost of full front-seat protection, including lap-belts, at $300 per unit. However, John Z. DeLorean, a former senior executive at G.M., has estimated the cost at $197. Other estimates bring per-unit cost down to $120 when mass-produced. Insurance rates Insurance companies which favor the system almost estimate that insurance costs could be pared by as unanimpusly mufch as 30 percent for bag equipped autos. (Allstate has already offered to reduce its rates by 30 percent.) Even at a moderate rate reduction of 20 percent, the device would pay for itself in six years, at the average policy-price of $200 per driver. Those with above-average rates would realize even greater benefits. The possible savings generated by the device in both human and economic terms, are massive. Ditlow, in a hearing before Coletnan last August, testified that “the total accident costs that could be avoided in '1975 terms by implementing advanced passive restraints would be $10.4 billion.” This figure reflects savings of 8000 to 10,000 lives, and prevention of 500,000 serious injuries per year through use of air bags. Tom Ban — — Legal aid expands to offer more services The Aid Clinic, which provides free legal services to university students, has been reorganized into the Student Legal Services Group. This move, according to group director David Brownstein, has enabled the organization to expand the scope of its operation. Some of the most common cases that Legal Services handles are landlord-tenant relations, drug arrests, and traffic violations. Legal Services also utilizes law students to represent defendants who are arraigned before the Inter-Residence Judiciary or the Student-Wide Judiciary. Brownstein said that under the new system, a Legal Services lawyer could represent a student during both an arraignment and a However, before the reorganization, Legal Aid lawyers were allowed to give legal information only. Other areas of legal services that will possibly be expanded are educatipn and public interest services. “One of our goals this year will be to give the students a greater insight into the judicial system and their own legal rights,” Brownstein said. With a staff of about sixty volunteers, Legal Services hopes to .publish pamphlets and conduct workshops on such subjects as students’ rights, women’s rights, rape prevention and landlord-tenant relations. Radio shows aiid seminars on these and other topics are also planned. Save money Legal Services is considering bringing class action suits to test the legality of the.Mandatory Health Insurance Fee and will also attemptto get tution deferrals for students whose tuition assistance awards have been delayer. For the first time, Legal Services will be providing lawyers for various student organizations such as the Student Association (SA) and Sub-Board. Previously, these organizations hired attorneys at their own expense. SA President Steve Schwartz said he hopes the new setup will save money and be more efficient. Brownstein pointed out that the program is still pending approval by an appellate court, but emphasized that he did not anticipate any problems with approval and is expecting final word any day now. In addition to its office in 340 Norton Hall, Legal Services will soon open a new'base at the Amherst Campus in Fillmore 177.

The two teams have met three times in previous years, with the St. Lawrence Saints winning all three matches, the last an K-4 victory last season at Canton. N.Y. In tlrat game, the Saints showed the Bulls an. awesome offense, firing 4K shots at Buffalo netmindci Johnny Moore. Light different players scored for St. Lawrence. Despite losing ten players fr'om last year's potent squad, the Saints don’t appear to be any less dynamic. Leading the offetise will be seniors Dan Weir. Paul Gallagher, and Ron Harris, sophomores Ky le Smith, Dan Walker and Kevin Dougherty and junior Mike LeBlane. Honored players Gallagher has been named the Saints' assistanfeaptain. based on his non-stop hustling and solid forechecking. Last season Gallagher totaled eight goals and eleven assists, lor nineteen points. Woking along with Gallagher as assistant captain will be Dougherty and sophomore Doug Crawford. The captain of the 1976 St.-Lawrence squad is senior defenseman Kevin Campbell, appointed by coach Leon Abbott on his seven goal, twelve assist performance of last year. Campbell missed the linal lour games of the 1975-6 campaign with a broken' jaw. t Helping Campbell on the blueline will be Ray Robertson. Bob de Pinquertaine. and- Francois Roch. Mark. Hcrxog and Bruce C anty should also aid the defensive linft. Minding the nets will be returnees Harry Aikens and Don, Holland with freshmen John fowler and Dave Quenncl in reserve. Hands full What all of this actually means, is that, the Bulls are going to have their hands full in trying to cope with the Saints, who have ten limes reached the NCAA finals. St. Lawrence opens their season tonight, against Canadian based Concordia College. Last year the Saints were the recipients of 6-2 and 9-2 drubbings given out by Concordia and should not fare much better this season. A loss to Concordia on opening night should put the Saints in a somewhat angry mood upon arrival in Buffalo. In the Bulls favor. however, is their past performances against Division I clubs. While they have not defeated any of their “senior opponents, the Buffalo skaters’always seem to play well against upper division learns, and lurid their own. It the Bulls can get good goaltending from John Moore (as they usually do), and some strong performances from their inexperienced defense, then a close contest , could be in the making. Prior to the Buffalo-St. Lawrence matchup will be an exhibition between ’the North Tonawanda Tondas and Depew. minor peewee teams from the Buffalo area. The players on these teams are eleven-year olds from the Western New York region. An interesting note shows that eighteen ot the 25 players on the Bulls team began their hockey carters in the same way. Lree buses* will be leaving both Goodyear and Lllicotl at 6:T0 p.m tomorrow night for the game. 1 The Kenmore Kickers, who haven't lost a game in two years, weren't overly ecstatic about their championship. but were more satisfied with their play over the lohg, grueling season.

If you're coming from Main Street, taking Eggert to Colvin is the fastest route. If you're coming from the North Campus, exit from the Youngman onto Colvin. In either case, take Colvin into North Tonawanda (where it becomes Twin Cities Memorial Highway and then Nash Road) to Walck Road and turn left. Make a right at Payne (where there is a traffic light) and make a right onto Ridge, but be careful, because Ridge is very small and comes up quickly. Tickets must be picked up at Clark Hall's tf£ket office from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Students without tickets will be charged S2 to see the name. An “almost” comeback The gutsy Targonauts refused to die. They didn't stop hustling in the remaining five minutes, and they came remarkably close to sending'lhe game into overtime. Bob Whitaker broke the shutout with 3:35 left, as* he scored on a goal crease scramble. ,Forty-five seconds later, it was Whitaker this tally coming off of -a perfectly placed pimdty shot. However, the Targonauts ran out of gas and time, as the Kickers held on to win. What was evidently a defensive battle in the early going, developed into an exciting offensive barrage late in the second halt.

Women’s Night at the Bubble turned into an unqualified success last Thursday. More than, a hundred women showed up to play volleyball, practice gymnastics, or work out on the weight machine. Coordinator Wendy Baker was very pleased with the turnout, and said she expects even more women next week. Last week, several angry me'n who weren’t allowed in the Bubble when it was occupied by only eight women refused to leave unfit forced to do so by Campus Security. An article was written in The Spectrum about the incident. Both Baker and the women at the Bubble cited the article as a major factor in Thursday’s turnout. "They read the article, and came out to see what it’s like," said Baker. AcCordiqg to Bill Monkarsh, director of Intramurals and Recreation.‘a letter in The Spectrum condemning Women’s Night was also a factor. “They came out to prove a point," he said. i The women who showed up for Women’s Night were extremely enthusiastic about fhe program. "It’s nice-.to be able to use the facilities and really know that they’re for you to use.” commented Beth Ornstein. a freshman from ’Ellicott. "Women's night is extremely necessary," continued junior Anita Slosberg, "especially tor women on N the North Campus.” Intimidation It is important to close the Bubble to men on Women’s Night because many women are intimidated in front of men, according to junior Nancy Haroian. “Whenever you play with guys, all you receive is criticism. Guys usually don't like to compete with girls. That’s why playing with girls is less inhibiting, she explained. The women who.came to the Bubble Thursday night had a wide variety of activities to choose from. Volleyball nets were set up. and games organized. Sytnc women used the mats to practice gymnastics or dance routines. The tennis nets were set up. and. as usual, there was basketialU jogging and weightlifting. Now that Women's Night is a proven success. Baker is even more optimistic about its future. This Thursday, she plans to have both a volleyball and basketball tournament. The tennis nets will also be up' again. Baker is open to any ideas as to what to do. Monkarsh plans to continue Women’s Night. "The women had a lot of fun,” he commented, right to enjoy the Bubble." Slosberg agreed. “Women’s Night should definitely be continued.” she said. ’’ r Intramural football QB 714 will compete against Barest 400 by Avery J Fuchs and Don Weiss The undefeated Action Postponed team confidently stepped onto the Amherst'football field ready to take on the 6-1 QB 714’s. Action Postponed had given up just 12 points during the regular season, hut Thursday wasn’t their day, as QB 714 won 20-0. Action Postponed received the kick-off in the quarter-final game, but were forced to punt due to the 714’s tenacious defense. When the 7 14’s were also stopped. Action Postponed regained possession. Quarterback Steve Zappia, on the second down, threw the ball long, only to be intercepted by 714’s Chi Gross. Brian Rosenblum took advantage of the turnover, hitting Gary Palefsky with a touchdown pass, putting the 714’s in front 6-0. They missed the extra point, and for the rest of the half both offenses were unable to move the ball. Bad kicking A bad kick by Action Postponed’s Mark Stone early in the second half left the 714’s in great field position at the 30-yard line. Rosenblum hit Palefsky with a thirty-yard pass and then connected with Jim Randall for six points, making the score I 2-0. This time they converted the extra point. Rosenblum to Morris Fox. Hie score remained 13-0, until there were five minutes remaining when Rosenblum hit Fox with a short pass, and on the next play he found Baletsky tor his second touchdown. Mike S.avonis caught the extra point to conclude the scoring at 20-0. QB 714 will face Barest 400 in the semi-finals. Barest downed Y Greudel on Friday Id-7, as quarterback Jim Friedman threw touchdown passes to Jim Sullivan and Johnny Greene, and returned a , punt for a touchdown. ThcVuion-ic Men. with varsity baseball pitcher Mik» Betz at quarterback, topped the Bucaroos 20-0. extending their string of shut-outs to five games. The Bionic Men shut out QB 714 during that streak The Bionic Men will face the N.Y. Hits in the semi-final contest week. The Clits battered Fargo Stirling Fxpress 26-0, as quarterback Baul Dimiero. a former varsity quarterback at Slippery Rock, and receiver Bobby Johansen made a shambles of Fargo Sterling’s defense. Dimiero ahd Betz are probably the two best quarterbacks on campus, so their semi-final duel should prove to be this quite interesting. Page ten . The Spectrum .

The major upset was Capt. Kenneth Braun's win over Sheriff Mike Amico. Throughout his campaign, Braun hurled charges of nepotism at Amico. Both candidates conceded that the press played a crucial role in/the election. Amico blasted the press for the "lies" that cost him votes, while Braun thanked the media for its support. Pictured left to right: top Sheriff Mike Amico, Sheriff-elect Kenneth Congressman Jack Kemp, Assemblyman Arthur Eve; Braun; above below Erie County Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, City Court Judge-elect Wilbur Trammell. — — — The economy was clearly the major issue in the Buffalo area during the 1976 campaign, as President-elect Jimmy Carter ■ and Senator-elecf Daniel P. Moynihan carried both New York State and Erie County for the Democrats. The Senate trace was marked by increasingly bitter campaigning as Moynihan portrayed Buckley as a millionaire unconcerned with working people, while Buckley referred to his opponent as “Professor Moynihan,” repeating such past United Nations proposals as “benign neglect” out of context. Moynihan managed to pull a divided Democratic party together by attacking Buckley’s opposition to federal programs favorable toward New York State. Western New York's most bitter race resulted in a major upset, as Kenneth Braun (R-L) defeated incumbent Michael Amico (D-C) for Erie County Sheriff. Amico blastsmedia Amico, former Chief of the Narcotics Squad of the Buffalo Police Department, was first elected in 1969. His 1976 campaign included the house to house distribution of 200,000 copies of a campaign newspaper, the Star News, in which he emphasized the department’s record, especially in combating drugs. In his concession speech, Amico lashed out at local media for what he called “fabrications” about himself and his administration. Sheriff-elect Braun won by 109,000 votes despite a Democratic registration plurality of 50,000 in Erie County. Primarily relying on a radio campaign, Braun criticized alleged nepotism and politicking, and a “lack of professionalism” in the Sheriffs Department. In races for State Supreme Court. Delores Denman, William Ostrowski, Frank Kronenberg and Thomas McGowan each won 14-year terms. Denman, who had by far the highest single vote total, attributed her support to women voters. While the economy issue was stressed in all local congressional campaigns, incumbency was the overriding factor for the victors. Kep. Jack Kemp (R-C) won re-election in the 38th District, which encompasses Southern and Eastern Erie County. His platform emphasized the need tb create jobs by cutting individual and business taxes. Nowak wins Rep. Henry Nowak (D-L) easily won again in 37th District, covering the City of Buffalo.

However’, last year, the directory included opportunity to vote This year the directory was published under the auspices ot the Student Association (SA). SA fell the directory should contain the students' addresses as well as phone numbers. The project was financed by Mark Teitelhaum. who was the coordinator of the student directory. Its estimated cost" of S30.000 was covered by advertising. SA incurred only a burden of approximately S675 which covered the cost of postage and label production. The The problems stemmed from several causes Registration forms were either incompletely or incorrectly 'tilled at out the SA-SASU voter registration table at the ID line on the second floor of Norton Hall, untrained students where the filing attempted to supervise of hundreds of forms a day. Schwartz attributed the foul-up to the great number of students and "too much help" in supervising the process. from NYl’IRG Spokesmen indicated’SA had turned down an offer'by NVPIRG to have the SA registration aides trained by professionals Additionally, two boxes with about 200 voter registration.forms were overlooked in the SA office. They were discovered two days after the last day to register Schwartz said SA tried everything" to have the forms accepted, but were unsuccessful. He added that mistakes were inevitable where so many students were involved. Many students also claimed they given were incorrect information by spokespersons in the SA office in the confusing days of the registration drive. SA sent out a letter October 20 informing students of the foul-Up. "We send our apologies for the oversight and we at SA are hoping that possibly our next drive will see you volunteering some of your time and interest so this incident will not happen again." The statewide student voter registration drive began as a group effort whose main participants SASU, and their w e re representatives in SA. and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). At however, some point, communication between the two groups broke down. Spokesmen from both groups targeted most of the blame for I he foul-ups on intentionally election laws complicated by politicians, and mcooperative or understaffed Boards of flections. Members of SASLI and SA said hat I he voter registration drive was an overall success The Spectrum Is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only The during the summer by Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc Offices are located at 355 Norton Hall, State University of New York at Buffalo, 3435 Main St..

When lour thousand students responded, it was erroneously believed that the bulk of the mistakes had been corrected. Out of 1600 updates received from dorm'students. Teitelbaum said at least 800 of these were actual corrections. Therefore, the actual number pt incorrect addresses should be 2200. In an attempt to perfect the student directory in the future, plans have been made to have updateTOrms waiting for students when they receive their 11) cards. Furthermore, the Admissions and Records Department intends to verify all compute.! readout sheets obtained from the Housing Office in the future. Correct readouts are imperative not only for directory purposes, but are needed tor all sanctions ot Admissions and Records" operations. At least its cheap In spite of its frailties, Tehelbaum termed the directory a "useful and beneficial tool for the entire University community." He also answered charges that students were not receiving their money's worth by indicating that the cost of the directory actually -was “seven cents per student, or .001''/ of the Student Activity fee." Teitelbaum added, "The vast majority of the students were very happy to get it." Assistant Director of Admissions and Records Richard Canale discussed the cause of the mixup in the listings of 3000 dorm students that were programmed during the.massive room assignments made by Housing this summer. He explained students received addresses intended for the residents who preceded them on the computer readout. Therefore each student's name and home address was correct but their addresses indicated rooms assigned to students directly following them on the computer sheet. Residence Hall Director. Rich Schocllkopf scoffed at Canale's reasoning. He suggested the cause of the failure was associated with /ip codes. Hall assignments were coupled in the computer with zip codes, and when a computer programming error was made, students were listed as living in rooms that were designated for other students from their own home town. He added however, that this was just an assumption, and the case was certainly not closed. Although these two assumptions conflict, either one could be the true cause of the error that resulted in the massive amounts of mistakes contained in this year.'s directory. Since each hypothesis is believed to be correct according to its respective source, studies are still being made to determine the true cause of the error. a WllSt£r , Near Winspear 8326666 OPEN 24 HOURS MONDAY NIGHTS - TAKE Y0UR CHOICE DOZEN DONUTS of your choice with I.D.

Although Carter's victory was by no large margin, he fashioned it without the support of the key midwestern industrial states which have swung so many close elections in the past. C arter received only 48 of the 108 electoral votes in Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, and Missouri. He made up the difference, however, by sweeping the South and establishing footholds in the big electoral states of Minnesota, Pennsylvania, and New York. Traditional barometers of election trends were also in constant conflict. Connecticut, where a Republican victory was supposed, to indicate a good night for Ford, was contrasted in the early returns by Carter’s win in Texas, a state which was considered a key to victory by both sides. Illinois and New Mexico both went for Ford, marking the first time since World War I that those two states did not go with the winner. One reason for this "break of tradition" may stem from C arter’s political views wiiich are not considered As a result. C arter ran better than most Democrats in the rural and farm areas, normally the bastions of Republican support. However. Carter's views tended to alienate many city dwellers, thereby balancing his gains in the rural areas yet altering the traditional Republican and Democratic power basis.' The final tally of 2 l>7 electoral votes for Carter to 24 I for Ford incidates that not only was the election considerably closer than the election of 1772, but the margin of victory was smaller than in the recent tight races of I960 and 1768. This fact, coupled with Carter’s .classic. Democratic. somewhat'larger margin in the popular vote tallies (Carter won by three percent.' more than either Nixon in l l J68 or Kennedy in l‘)60) shows that if Carter lost in a big electoral state, he lost by a smallermargin than Ford. In the l)5th Congress, no major shakeup will occur. The Mouse of Representatives as well as the Senate will remain solidly Democratic, putting the Presidency and the Congress under control of one party for the first time since Lyndon Johnson's full term in office. However, there were some changes in both houses. In the Senate. Daniel Moynihan handily defeated incumbent Republican James Buckley in New York, and Democrat Raul Sarbanes of Maryland, who gained fame as a Representative during the Watergate' hearings, upended another Republican. J. Glenn Beall. In Ohio, following a brutal campaign. Democrat Howard Metzenbaum defeated incumbent Robert Taft Jr. But the Republicans were not without their turnovers either. Perhaps the biggest surprise of all was in California where S.l. Hayakawa defeated incumbent Democrat John Tunney. Overall the Democrats gained one seat in the senior chamber. In the House, it is possible that there will be a net effect of zero When all the votes are counted, leaving the Democrats clear control in that chamber.

This fall, a jump of about four percent from 9.7 million to 10.1 million, is expected in the number of students pursuing degree-credit and in programs colleges universities across the country. Official figures have not yet been released, but the SUNY Office of Institutional Research estimated that total has enrollment in the SUNY system will decline almost 4.6 percent from Fall 1975 to Fall 1976. One reason is that fewer students are either returning to or entering the system. However, this year SUNY administrators lowered the ceiling on students enrolled statewide, as state-appropriated funds to the system were cut. Increased tuition costs did not generate enough to make the up revenue difference, justifying this reduced enrollment quota, according to Charles M.

To counteract this policy, Kahane feels the Israeli government should strengthen its stand on concessions made in the pursuit of peace. The rabbi gave historical accounts to prove that when wars are fought, the victor is not the side which should make concessions. He feels the government of Israel has propagated .certain myths which will eventually lead to the downfall of the country. The first myth he pointed out was that the government had to be flexible and had to give up certain territories, st> there would be peace. by Libby Post and Harold Fleisher Rabbi Meir Kahane, Jewish apathy militant founder of the Jewish Defense League (JDL), addressed a capacity audience in the Fillmore Room, Monday night. In his opening statement, Kahane set the stage for the evening, saying, “It is always nice to see Palestinians in Buffalo, but in the land of Israel, there are no Palestinians.” The statement met with mixed reaction from an audience, which was predominantly Jewish, but with a considerable Arab attendance. Before the speech approximately 75 people, including members of Youth Against War and Fascism, picketed outside the Fillmore Room, chanting, “Palestine forever” and “We are Palestinians.” Despite efforts to keep the group orderly by Abed Musallem, organizer of the protest and Student Association International Affairs Coordinator, there were — Kahane answered this by saying, the Arabs felt Israel stole their land and no matter how much territory Israel gave up, they would not be satisfied, and conflicts would still persist. The second myth was that the people of Israel should trust America. But, as he pointed out earlier, U.S. foreign policy has not been in the interest of Israel. As an example, he cited Truman’s desire to have the country made into a trusteeship, rather than have it declare * sovereignty. disruptions both inside and outside the room. It took about 20 minutes to quiet the marchers once the program began. Kahane continually emphasized that, “there is no Palestine,” illustrating the “myth of occupied territory” by'telling of the program in Chevron, Israel in 1929, where 69 Jews were massacred. He felt that in 1947 Israel could have been a land where both Palestinians and Jews lived together. Yet, according to Kahane, history shows the Palestinians chose to go to war in an effort to keep their land predominantly Arab. What people fail to realize, Kahane said, is “going to war is taking a gamble; sometimes you win, and sometimes you lose. And, it just so happened the Arabs lost.” He added that winners do not have to make concessions. Kahane emphasized the Israeli government’s passiveness in complying with U.S. pressure to relinquish territories obtained through conflicts. Inherent in this policy, he pointed out, is the United States’ Rogers’ Plan, which calls for Israel to retreat from all occupied land. He further stressed that American interests are not in Israel’s well-being, I The Chassidic rabbi, who grew up in Brooklyn, N.Y., launched a direct attack upon the “insecure American Jew.” He denounced the assimilation of Jews into the society, which is one of the “twin cancers” which has caused “Jews to lose their Jewishness.” Inter-marriage, interfaith and public schools, he feels, have broken down the morale of Jews in America. He would like to see every Jew go to a Yeshiva (a Jewish parochial schopl), instead of public schools or hebrew schools, which he feels are a desecration of Jewish education. Also, he feels there are too many organizations like Jews for Jesus, and too few Jewish groups solely for Jews. The second cancer is the physical anti-semitism which exists in Ameriba tojJay. He attributed this predicament to the fact that today’s Jews don’t like to think about anti-semitism. “But,” he asked, “are our gentiles more gentle?” Aside from the two cancers, Kahane also attacked various Jewish organizations, such as B’Nai the United Jewish Appeal, for not coming to the aid of the Soviet Jews until, “an extremist group, like the Jewish Defense League, made the moderates go along the same line.” He attributed this change to his policy of violence, the underlying basis of which came from the Talmud, or Jewish Law. He quoted the Talmud as saying, “If one comes to slay you, slay him first.” This policy of violence, he said, has also helped the Soviet Jewry Soviet issue get on the front page of major publications, and gave the catalyst that violence was the was that hope. some His attitude Jews pressured the USSR to let Jews immigrate to Israel. “All of the Jewish Defensd League violence was not useless or needless violence. It was a lesson in political logic. We know that if a detente (with the Soviet Union) was achieved, Soviet Jews were doomed. Our only leverage was to prevent detente.” Kahane expressed this ideology to the court which sentenced him to one-year’s imprisonment for violation of a five-year probation handed down in July of 1971. Kahane pleaded guilty to a one count indictment charging him with the production of a fire-bomb. Having nothing to do directly or indirectly with guns, bombs, dynamite, or any other weapons were the restrictions of the probation. Kahane, who admitted to the violations stated, “I did what I had to do with a clear conscience.” In reference to the possibility of peace in the Jewish state, Kahane said, “The Palestinians will have to live with us, rather than us having to live with them.” Kahane refuses to recognize the possibility of any Palestinian state where Israel now exists. “The State of Israel is the sanctification of God’s name,” exclaimed the rabbi. “Every rock and tree is ours/’ receive it.

Nonetheless, he criticized the Turki opened his discussion alluding to the Jews for occupying someone else’s homeland and the appearance here of Meir Kahane, militant founder of British for offering someone else’s homeland. An analogy was made by Turki between Israeli the Jewish Defense League. “If Kahane and Golda Meir and people like that deny the existence of policies and those of the white South Africans Palestine, then they raise doubts about the towards blacks. He stated, “If you ask the white South Africans if they have a democracy of course professional skills of their optometrists.” just like the Jews.

I I I I I To the Editor There has been, much said of late to downgrade various Board of f lections throughout New Vork the State for not getting Absentee Ballots requested by students sent to those students before Flection Day. 1 have spoken with many students with this plight during the past few days. Besides being denied their right to the franchise, they all had one thing in applications tor their ballots had been common handled through the Student Association office. I can only speculate as to the number ot vote, students on this campus who were denied their as I can only speculate as to what effect these votes, had they been cast, may have had on the outcome here in New York State. However. I do believe that — particularly in an election as every vote counts close as this one had been. On behalf of the Student Association’s attempt to register students and assist students in obtaining Absentee Ballots, it can be noted that many, who otherwise would not have registered or voted in this election, were able to do so. However, if the Student Association is to undertake this chore, doing it half way is not enough. Losing x number of applications can not be justified by registering x number of students. If, in fact, the Student-Association is at fault in this matter, they have served the students of this University a great injustice; perhaps the greatest the denial injustice that could possibly be incurred ofj£j*5nstitutional right. Marla Roberts I Fve been written Guest Opinion by Steven Spiegel Often enough unfounded charges are leveled at the Student Association government, but usually we judge them as not being serious enough to warrant a response. Not that the student body isn t deserving of an explanation, but \»e are kept pretty busy with other aspects of our jobs in serving students. However, in the past couple of weeks there has been a serious allegation that I should like to answer at this time. I speak of Two separate occurences: one an article, the other a column, where the student government was accused of shutting down two different student newspapers because their content was thought offensive. The first was New World Orchestra, which was funded through C'.A.C’. under special projects. Since the Financial Assembly was prevented from completing it's business last Spring, the Hxecutive C ommittee had to do the annual budget. When we passed C'.A.CVs budget, we passed the special projects line as a lump sum, with the understanding that NWO was one of C'.A.CVs many projects. After the budget was passed in May by Student Association, it became the responsibility of C.A.C. to decide how it would fund its projects. Since the budget was passed in May, I find it hard to believe that the editorial staff of NWO would wait until late September to inquire about their level of funding. The second paper to charge political manipulation was Commuter Spring Comment. the Finance Committee made a Last recommendation that all newspapers be moved to the' publications division of Sub Board for funding; Sub Board being a service organization for all students, not just undergraduates. So the Commuter Comment was not funded by Sub Board either. What was arranged was a column to appear in The Speetrum every other week. I'm not sure why Sub Board chose to give only a column and not a page. The Student Association had a newspaper last spring called The Haek (what's in a name?) which was supposed to go through a similar transition, and I've yet to be notified of even having a column. To conclude, the student government has no interest in stilling freedom of the press and didn't lake any action that was intended to silence any newspapers. I feel .the unfortunate pattern of these occurrences and others, is that when someone doesn't have the facts of a situatuMwJjiey accuse Student Association in the press of back-door politics, and then perhaps later check their story with the people they accused. Often they find out they were wrong, and some are even decent enough to apologize to us. but it is the very rare person who attempts to undo the harm done to S.A. in the press. I hope this has cleared some things up. Spiegel is SA Page six . Executive I iee President. The Spectrum . Friday, 5 November 1976 I off To the T.Jilor ' We are told by Republicans and Democrats alike, that it is our duty and honorable privilege to vote tor candidates running for public office. On this past election day. patriotism ran so strong that I received not I. not 2. hut 3 calls reminding me and proding me to get out and vote. All these calls came from the Democratic Party, of which I amregistered. They must believe in Freedom of Choice, but only if your choice was the same as theirs. On Nov. 2nd. IU76, page 2 C ) of section 3 of the Hnffalo Keening News read (and I read it after I had cast my vote): That any voters wishing to write in the name of hugene McCarthy would not be casting a countable ballot unless the individual also wrote in the names in the TURPI- minutes given of THIRTY electors him in the voting machine. I will further point out to the .Vein, and others, who like myself, wrote in votes, that thirty one nuines are hard to fit on a sheet of paper one inch by two. and although requested for exact information, that the government workers at the booth did not supply me. or others like me, with the necessary operations required for a countable write-in vote. I would suggest that they themselves simply were not informed by the powers that be! In short, by leaving my candidate’s name, and of course the names of all other non-Republicans or Democrats' running for the office of President, by not properly publicizing the method or informing port workers of the correct procedures, and by physically limiting time and space for the correct process, / have been rubbed of my franchise. I protest to the media, and to all who took part in this false exercise of freedom (especially the Democrats in Albany). I demand that these laws and regulations be changed, and that I, and hundreds like me, have our voles counted us carefully and equally as those of any other American. I further contend that Albany’s bureaucrates have once again stolen away a liberty while using the excuse of protection of the same. I call upon all individuals in this community whose rights have been violated, or whose rights might be violated in the future, by these unequal laws, to take action on this farcical free election. Demand changes to protect your vote. Demand your franchise, and demand an end to this “Americanism” sought by individuals representing only the interests of Republican and Democratic candidates. I have always respected everyone’s vote. As Americans I ask that you respect and protect mine. I am an American I as much as any citizen, and like any citizen deserve and I demand my franchise!

Following the narrative portion of the song, Zappa stood the audience on its own stinking feet, with a bit of his epileptic guitar patterns. Next Zappa aroused the crowd with his peculiar brand of sex-rock. As Zappa introduced the band's foxy addition, Bianca the "Eat your hearts out ladies and gentlemen" erogenous zones of the audience were gangbanged by her version of "Dirty Love." Several new cuts followed, including the college graduate theme song, "You're Gonna Wind Up Working In A Gas Station," and a rather insane tune sung by the drummer (whose title Zappa never mentioned), and finally the sadistic and eerie account, "The Torture Never Stops," augmented by pre-recorded but nevertheless haunting « Zappa and 'bionic funk' bizarre trip Buffalo concert Frank Zappa has always been a pioneer, his music often calling for the use of new and innovative ideas. Although, lyrically, Zappa's basic subject matter is a creation of his own wierd persona (see interview), the instrumental portions of his work fuse many different styles. In his work, you can find touches of Hendrix, Cream, the Penguins, the Kingsmen, Coltrane, Cage, and even a few snatches reminiscent of Stravinsky. If. you were to compare him to most other rock artists, you would find that he is light years ahead of them. not only a beautiful Take Wakajawaka for example display of guitar improvisation, but a jazz-rock album that preceded Jeff Beck's transition by more than half a decade. Although specifically designed to promote his new album, Zoot Allures, (which should be on your turntables by the time you read this) Zappa's October 22 concert at the Buffalo Memorial Auditorium accounts for yet another musical style incorporated into his work.

This rhythmic excursion, which was to eventually close the show, was based on a cowbell backbeat and synthesizer pulsations, and each moment of its building intensity and undulating momentum, Zappa's arrival became an eagerly awaited moment. Clad in a red jumpsuit, and looking like a cross between a skinny Santa Claus and a hairy devil, Zappa finally made his way to center stage. With fifteen thousand people roaring approval, Zappa kicked the show off with material from the albums that brought in the most green stuff, Apostrophe and Over-Night Sensation. Zappa immediately demostrated his conformity to lyric 10 Zappa on Zappa in Plattsburg no less Editors note: The following interview with Frank Zappa took place in a Howard Johnsons in New York. Plattsburg, Editor Dimitri Contributing Papadopoulos questioned Zappa on his music, his attitude toward the music industry, drugs, the government, and more. Frank, before we get into your music, tell me what the Flosser is? A: Have you ever seen the Flosser? (no). Well I can describe it to you. I saw an advertisement for a product on television and this of course reassured me that everybody in America was right. There is a product made of heavy duty plastic and it looks like a sling shot, but instead of having a rubberband on it, it has a piece of dental floss stretched across the top. And they wanted $5.95 for ft. You're supposed to jam this sucker in your mouth and wiggle it back and forth between your teeth. And I'm going sure you do, sure you need that, I mean that's really and important product. Q: Where do you come up with a song like Inca Roads?" A: Did you ever see the book Chariot of the Gods? Well its about the planes of IMasga, that's 0; ? those things are, those carvings are the Inca roads. Q: Some people think Hot Rats was more spontaneous, than lets say V\/akajawaka, especially "Mr. Greenjenes." What do you think? A: That Mr. Greenjenes was spontaneous? Hardly. First of all, it had already been recorded on the Unde Meat album and second of all, it was highly orchestrated. Q: Your music is very complex sometimes. How do you explain your music to the band? A: You always have to explain. I explain by ideas to different musicians, different ways. Just depends on how fast they learn. Sometimes guys pick it up real fast, you can play it to them on a guitar and they'll pick it up. With George Duke, you can play him one or two notes and he'll know the next seven. Q: Do you like to produce and engineer your own albums? what all A: I usually do, the mixes by myself. I usually do Q: When you record do you use a lot of overdubs? A: I do it different ways depending on what song it is. Q: On the Roxy album, you included -in the liner notes that dubs have been added. Was there a special reason behind that? A: Yeah, I think that a group that doesn't announce on an album, that there is stuff pasted on, is giving a false impression of what they do. Q: Is "San Bernadino" a philosophical song? A: That's a song about a girl who lives in Mohave, in a Winnebago, she's in love with a boy from a rodeo, who pulls a rope on the shoot, when they let those suckers go. Its a long song about these two people who maybe you wouldn't want to live next to, but they have a life they have found quite rewarding, that I don't think you should mess with. Q. Is it a hassle to be rn or the rhusic connected with industry? A: I love to play the concerts. I certainly don't like flying arourld on Alleghany airlines. I don't like waiting for an hour or two at Albany Airport. I like to play the the rest of the stuff concerts and is just a stupid piece of machinery, that I guess the American people want it that way or it wouldn't exist. Q: Are the record companies just trying to put one over on the kids? A: Oh yeah, its all hype, you kndw. You see an ad in your favorite rock and roll magazine and it says so and so is the greatest guitar player in the world, then you turn the page and see an ad that says the same thing, only its phrased a different way. Four pages later you see another 6ne that says the same thing, and the page after that so and so is the greatest new girl singer in the world and you know its . . . crap. Q: At the time you released One Size Fits AH. you also released Bongo Fury (with the Captain). Was that hectic period? A: I'd like to put out records as.fast as I can. I'd put out one a week if I could. Q: I hear you have a new album coming out. Could you tell me a little about it? A: Of course, its wonderful. Its called Zoot Allures. And if its close to anything its close to Overnight Sensation, but not really because I'm playing most of the instruments different sound but it has some will people gratifying. on it. So it has a than Overnight, songs on it that erotically find I hear you also have a video in the works, Token of His ExremeP Is that something like 200 Motels ? A: No, 200 Motels was sort of Q: tape just a fantasy about the kinds of things people imagine happens to rock and roll bands. Token is not a story its a concert with clay animation. But it seems to be too advanced for American television. It has been shown in France and Switzerland, in prime time and been very well received over there. But you know how Americans are. Q: Is there any future for your Six Pieces For Orchestra album? A: Well I've had several offers, but none of them have been comparable to what I've spent personally putting the album together. Q: Is it hard to write for the instruments in the orchestra? A: That's not hard the hardest thing is paying for it. Q How do your lyrics come about? A: I don't just go down in the studio and think of the lyrics, its all planned before I go in. Q: Write much on the road? A: Oh yeah. Q: Do members of the band ever tell you their ideas? A: No, I usually surprise them. I'll come in and say, let's try this. Q: You've always surrounded yourself with such fine musicians. A: Mothers in the old days was continued on page 8 �Zappa on Zappa they don't know how to go about that are really selling it and the reason they don't is because —continued from page 7— it.

The play continues with ten successive performances through Sunday, November 14, 1976. The production is unusual because for the first time actors from outside the University have donated their time and talent to support the theater programs here The Imaginary Invalid is one of Moliere's most popular plays. A combination of high comedy and farce, it depicts the world of Argan an imaginary invalid complete with its religiosity of doctor's, diseases a.non is so shockingly different theatrical from convention not because of its substance, but because of the manner in which that substance is communicated.

The Spectrum'. Page nine �Zappa concert not Hum",on the Overnight Sensation album a single member of the new band had the hairy, Earnest movement While the bass player's earnest movements seemed obnoxious next to Zappa's satirically intended body spasms, the biggest trash job of the evening came with a comparison of musical talents between this band and Zappa's previous (and always enriched) rosters. Frank Zappa, like John Mayall, has always surrounded himself with the most technically proficient musicians available. How's this for an impressive list: the two extraordinary violinists Jean Luc Ponty and Sugercane Harris, drummer Ansley Dunbar, reedman lah Underwood (who is not only talented, but, unlike other' rock musicians, possesses a degree in music from the prestigious Julliard School in N.V.C.) Flo and Eddie, the fat and skinny visual air specialists, and George Duke, who has, since leaving Zappa, gone on to form a powerful combination with Billy Cobham. Not only did these guys have their shit together ala superior music-wise, but they also seemed to have a distinct grasp of Zappa's musical anarchy. Not only were they computable on stage, but damp, they knew what to do on record also. Listen to the version of "Dynamo "Strictly _ / crawl past the garbage, your mama jumps out screaming don't come back no more can't take it My guitar wants to kill your mama My guitar wants to kill your mama My guitar wants to burn your dad get real mean when it makes me mad / / — - - GOOD FOOD RESTAURANT Hong kong Chicken with vegetable.

If skeptisism reigned during the concert as to the instrumental capabilities of the band, a solid version of Apostrophe did much to stomp that notion. As if it mattered anymore to the already estatic audience, Zappa concluded with a medly of "Camarillo Brillo" and "Muffin Man." With another trivial but honest (see interview) "thank you for coming to the show" Zappa, to the beat of the cannabilistic drums, walked off into the mirky depths; known only to some as the "Purple Lagoon."

Wilkins and Dr. Francis H.C. Crick. Together, they were honored for their contribution to the understanding of the basic life process through their discovery of the molecular structure of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), the substance of heredity. Professor Watson immediately won international acclaim when he and Dr. Crick presented model for a DNA, from which much of the research in modern biology stems. This model clearly suggested how the DNA molecule duplicate might itself during cell division. A member of the National Academy of Sciences. Dr. Watson is the holder of many honorary degrees. He has published the widely used textbook. Molecular Biology of the Gene (Benjamin, New York) and also, a personal account of the discovery of the structure of DNA, The Double Helix (Atheneum New York).

But despite all this insane publicity with million dollar spreads announcing some private tidbit in Elton's life, his new double album, Blue Moves, has actually redeemed him, especially from his last piece of trash, Rock of the Westies. With all this crap going down on him (there's’ a limit to attacking, folks), I gotta admit that the stuff here is half-decent. If this album fuses anything, it's the old with the new. The new Elton John Band, which debuted last record around, is so multifaceted that a slamming fullness comes through with each song. Unlike many of the eaffier recordings, thei;e is a greater variety of instruments played advantageously on Blue Moves. Besides the new band, a few members from the old crew help along: Ray Cooper on percussion, and guitar, Davey Johnstone with his by Doug Alpern Spectrum Music Staff It took us a good hour to find this much touted hall, hut after eyeing the uniquely elegant relaxing in this acoustical pardise known and crowd as Kleinhans, I could see it was well worth the wait Concert The show boasted two big acts along the disco-soul vein: Lady Marmalade herself, Patti Labelle, and the recently rejuvenated Tower of Power. .The crowd drooled in anticipation of Labelle's appearance.

I'm just glad he staited off with such a fine tune and not belting out any junk about ugly girls and pilots of the future. Instead of Marilyn Monroe, his dedication cut is to Edith Pigf, the opera singer, with "Cage the Songbird." His closest ,to an out-and-out rocker (and the only one amazing!) is the long concluding song on the album, "Bite Your Lip (Get Up and Dance!)." It's nice .to see the usual Elton John calling cards on Blue Moves. Thre is one song, though, that is an eerie near-masterpiece. "Idol," with its jazzy abstract chording and the horns which make it sound almost sleazy, laments the downfall of a 50's rock star and his eventual psychological and public demise. are Bernie Taupin's lyrics at top form; • Blue Moves sets Elton's 4»rack record upwards again, the best set of songs he's done since peaking with Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. But there is something missing, assets that have been lacking in Elton's simplicity and the last four or five albums silly or schemes in his avoidance of elaborate songwriting and production. Put on Tumbleweed Connection or Madman Across the Water and’ there is Elton at his most panoramic and powerful best. He is most effective when there is a light piercing touch, the minimum amount of multi-layered executions and fooling around It's noticeable, happily, that Elton is-'on the upswing and doing something different, taut well done this time. And instead of a Pretty Hype Cover, we have the artistic, pseudo-impressionist painting, "The Guardian Readers" by Patrick Proktor. Hopefully, all this "Elton John I Want Your Hide" blitz will subside and we'll have Blue Moves to discuss intelligently and quietly. Good move, Elton and Bernie, Drew Reid Kerr of Tower of Power opened the show, exhibiting their inimitable brand of jazz-oriented, disco-style soul.

The statement which follows if was submitA‘d in The Spectrum hy William J. Henihanl. who resigned as UUAH li.uial Arts Com miI lee Chairman I his week. Dear Mr. I.essoJJ At this time I submit my formal resignation from the position of Sub-Board I. Inc.. UUAB Visual Arts (Gallery 21V (Committee Chairperson. This decision was not an easy one to make. However, after careful-consideration and discussing the situation with prospective committee members, I feel that accepting a budget of SI.274.00 falls into the realm of absurdity. Furthermore, by allocating this small a budget. Sub Board I has virtually doomed the existence of a visual arts (Gallery 21V) progra m. In closing I must say that it is disturbing to see the priorities of Sub Board I, Inc. and SUNV/Buffalb acting directly against the existence of an art gallery and other visual arts programming. Hopefully., UUAB' Sub Board I, andSUNY/BuffalA wijl reorder their priorities and bring into existence an art gallery and realistic budgeting for a visual arts program on this campus. Regret J'uU\ William ./. Hvrnhaht During the last couple of years. Gallery 2l l has sponsored many successful visual arts events on campus, despite an already small budget of less than $3500 a year, This. programming was a direct result of the energy of the committees, their chairpersons, and the support they got from community based organizations (the Ashford Hollow Foundation. > Artists Committee and Hallwalls). These activities took place with little or no cooperation from UUAB and/or Sub Board I, Inc. During my brief association with UUAB it became apparent that I, too, wasn’t to expect much support, in fact the impression 1 got was that the Visual Arts Committee should feel fortunate that they got even $1200.00. It is amazing to me that a Slate University of this size cares nothing about their Visual Arts programming or. having a quality Art Gallery. Many of the smaller SUNY schools in the Western New York area have fine Galleries and programs supported through their Art Departments and Student Fees. There is also an organization of the SUNY Schools in Western New York which helps to sponsor a wide range of Visual Arts programming. SUNY AB participates only marginally in ibis programming because there is no support from the Art Department and only token support from Sub Board I. Inc. The action of Sub Board I, Inc. and UUAB combined with the total lack of support of the Art Department has eliminated any realistic Visual Arts Programming or adequate Art Gallery on this campus. As a cultural institution SUNYAB has become a non-entity. The situation as it exists now is sad indeed. Those members of the University that have interests in the Visual Arts have no support from their school. They have to turn to community based organizations for help. These organizations, in the past*, have been willing to co-sponsor programming with Gallery 21 1 They have now recognized the «>rry state of affairs and can no longer pledge support to a Gallery that is receiving only token funding from the University. It is about time that the University takes the responsibility to provide adequate Visual Arts programming for its members. The Art Department anil Sub Board I. Inc. must provide realistic funding and not send (hose people interested in the Visual Arls begging in (he ). ’?SSST.'" Affirmative action I'd I lw I'.clihn Your Monday editorial and front page articles on Affirmative Action loopholes contain an apparent misconception which I would like to correct. You imply that there are currently certain types of University positions to which Affirmative Action guidelines do not apply. This is not do. SUNY’s statewide faculty Senate became aware last year that some positions were being filled without Affirmative Action searches' being conducted. Accordingly at its meeting on January .JI. I l)7ft. it passed a resolution recommending to the Chancellor that "it become%University Policy that all open Professional Staff positions be filled only after an appropriate open Affirmative Action Search Procedure and a formal review thereof." l ‘ On April ft. I )7ft. the Chancellor-made a written response. In this he stipulated his general support of the prineiple that a full, open affirmative action procedure precede search the filling of all professional positions. He recognized that there may be. on aecasion. special circumstances necessitating the filling of a position without a search but recommended that in such circumstances, ‘.‘a waiver of the-search requirements be sought from the local Affirmative Action Committee by the appointing ■ administrator. All exceptions to the usual open affirmative action search and selection procedure he continued should be documented with a waiver request and waiver approval form or letter.” Within SUNY, University Policy consists of the Policies of the Board of Trustees and such formal pronouncements as the Chancellor might make. Thus current University Policy precludes the use of any one type of appointment as a “legal” loophole. Two things should, however, be born in mind. First, the time it takes for new University Policies to be implemented varies. I am not sure to what extent the new Affirmative Search Procedures policy is in effect. Secondly, many «of the people employed on campus are paid from grants and contracts. Such funds are administered through the Research Foundation of State University and accordingly such appointments fall under the policies of the Research Foundation rather than those of the University itself. These policies are set by the Research Foundation’s Board of Directors which is appointed by the SUNY Board of Trustees and is chaired by the Chancellor; Peter A'. Gessner Pharmacology and Therapeutics Chairperson, SUNY Faculty Senate's /■'air employment Practices Committee Directory errors To ilw l.ililor As most dorpt students already know, many ol the listings in this year’s student- directory are incorrect. The error was caused by a correction subprogram in the housing tape. It assigned the room of the person ahead in the initial room assignments to the person that followed. All told, three thousand of these changes were made. Total damage was lessened by the students who corrected their student data forms in the week that was set aside to do that. Of the four thousand updates, approximately eight hundred were the affected dorm students thus leaving 2200 incorrect listings. Fortunately, it is still possible to locale dorm students. In manyvcases the phone number or at least the last four difms are correct. I hus it a number is given as K3I-XXXX and the person lives on the North Campus. 636-XXXX stands a good chance of being right. Lastly, one can. if all else fails, call any of the housing area desks listed on page 34 in the directory. Fven with the aforesaid error, the directory remains a useful tool and can be of benefit to the entire University community. The student directory is in many cases the only way th locate most off-campus students. In addition it has a complete listing of all departments, a campus service section, and a yellow page section geared specifically to student needs. As project coordinator. I hope you will find the directory helpful. Mark TciUihdiim community.

Sixteen students, along with several faculty representatives, were allowed five minutes each for a presentation on a topic of their choice. Other members of the audience were then given the to opportunity speak for three extemporaniously minutes^ The Trustees then addressed questions from the audience and attempted to respond to some of the points made by the speakers. The open hearings were mandated by the New York State after student Legislature demonstrations responding to massive SUNY-wide budget cutbacks last spring. The feeling expressed by many of the student speakers was that the hearings never would have materialized had unless the Legislature required them by law. (SA) Student Association President Steve Schwartz was the first speaker to express this opinion. “Although you have certainly followed the letter of the law, 1 feel you have violated the spirit of the law,” he said, drawing a large round of applause. Disgusted “My only assumption is that the only reason you are holding these public hearings is so that you can tell the members of the New York State Legislature that you complied with the law and not to hear what is going on on the campuses. And I just hope the Legislature is as disgusted with this as I am.” Scwartz went on to detail the rising costs facing SUNY students. He urged the Trustees not to “play games with us. If tuition — isn’t raised this year, don’t nickel and dime the students of SUNY to death,” referring to possible raises in other fees or the creation of new ones. Finally, he spoke in support of the Third World Caucus, still pending approval by the Board of Trustees, as did a number of other speakers. The Third World Caucus is a representative body made up of SUNY Third World students, which has been allocated ten delegate seats in the Student Assembly of the State University the by membership body. however, the Technically, Trustees must approve any change in the Assembly’s by-laws, such as the one to seat the Caucus. the Although question was originally raised over a year ago, the Trustees have taken no definitave action on the issue. Needed entity Third World Caucus member James Hartwell, in his five-minute presentation, accused the Trustees of “foot-dragging” on the issue. He contended that the Caucus is not “reverse discrimination,” and that a person of any race is welcome to be active in it, as long as they carry out the Caucus’ prime directive, which is to “further the interests of SUNY Third World students.” He said that the Caucus is necessary to ensure equitable representation to SUNY’s Third World population in the Student because Assembly minority groups do not have the necessary numbers to effectively participate the established student in government channels at this time. Graduate Student Association (GSA) officials and Third World Caucus member Zeb Syeb also addressed the Caucus question. “Our voice is a needed entity in the system,” he said. “We are an asset to eacn other. Syed also criticized the stilted nature of the proceedings. “The circumstances under which we are here are so rigidly controlled that it makes a mockery of the people of this State,” he said. “It seems incredible to us that you should follow the letter and not the spirit of the law.” He finished by criticizing the recent Board of Regents report and the Board’s members, who he —Laub said have lent “their high-flung names to a document that could only have been written by a drunk.” • Come stay with us Several students pleaded with the Trustees to ensure the right of Jewish students to observe the high holidays, Yom Kippur and Rosh Hoshanna, without fear of academic reprisal. Stu Elson of the Inter-Residence-Council (IRC) bewailed the difficulties facing dorm students, and urged the Trustees to “come stay with us for a weekend” to see what it’s like. “There’s no substitute for experience,” he said. SA Academic Affairs Coordinator Andy Lalonde urged the Trustees to allow this University to maintain its present four-course load system, and Alan Starr of the Millard Fillmore College Division spoke in support of Student Course and Teacher Evaluations (SCATE). the Although proceedings orderly remained relatively the formal throughout presentations, tempers began to thin the during wear presentations extemporaneous and question and answer periods. member William Trustee Hassett Jr. of Buffalo attempted that the to answer charges Trustees were reluctant to communicate with students by that “the most remarking important thing is that this meeting is happening.” He insisted that he has never refused to meet with any member of the University community that has wished to speak with him. He also said that he did not fully understand the Third World Caucus situation before the hearing, and felt better informed now. Chairperson Board Mrs. Maurice Moore was the brunt of considerable heckling from the audience, especially for what some considered students “condescedning” remarks she made about Student Trustee Frank Jackalone. Sloore, however, remained unruffled throughout the proceedings. The Trustees present were Moore, Jackalone, Hassett, Manly Fleishman, Nan Johnson, and Acting SUNY Chancellor James Kelly. S/Ugrading policy changed by Faculty Senate by Paulette Buraczenski Spectrum Staff Writer S/U grade was requested, says Dr. Robert Bailey, Associate Director of Admissions and Records. Because the current system is seen as a source of abuse by students, a proposal to change the satisfactory/unsatisfactory grading policy was passed by the Faculty Senate last January. Current Senate Chairman Jonathan who sponsored the proposal said the plan is now clear of administration red tape. However, the plan will not take effect earlier than Fall, 1977. Reichert This system, says Reichert, “will limit the weak students,” and force them to work harder for their degrees. The hold-up was due “technical problems” programming the computer keep letter grades on file when to in to an proposal involved re-programming and altering the file structure. Staff cuts further complicated the limitations. “All technical aspects could not be handled at that point,” said Richard Dremuck, director of The Admissions and Records. Now, less problems with the computer are anticipated, according to Reichert, but Dremuck says, “We don’t know how much can be accommodated at this point.” The plan calls for two types of binary grading, which will hopefully “urge students to take courses that interest them without hurting their averages,” says Reichert. The deadlines will probably be tied to the drop-add dates, although this has not been decided. The first type of grading, called “pass-fail,” (P/F) can be implemented by faculty choice the only. If approved by administration, an instructor can choose to grade an entire class P/F. Such a system would be listed as P/F in the schedules, and students would be informed of the P/F standing at the start of the semester. Instructors will also have the option of submitting only letter grades. Students can also elect to be graded S/U, but within certain limitations. For example, a student cannot take required courses within their major, S/U, and only 25 percent of their credit hours per semester can be taken S/U. Under the new system, the student will register his intention to take a class S/U with the Office of Admissions and Records. The professor will still submit a letter grade which the computer will file and put in S/U terms. Once a student elects to take a course S/U, and files it with Admissions and Records, there will only be two instances in which reclaiming of the letter grade will be possible. If a student, after changing majors, finds that a course he had previously taken S/U now falls within his major, the department can file a request to Admissions and Records to change the S/U to a letter grade. The other instance involves showing proof that graduate school requires the course to be taken for a letter grade Jonathan Reichert �Absentee ballot affidavits ATTENTION PRE-LAW STUDENTS All students who have received their absentee ballots in the mail this week should mail them in as soon as possible to their respective boards of election. They are also urged to contact the NYPRIG office at 831-2715, or come to room 311 Norton Hall, or the SA office in room 205 Norton (or call 831-5507), to fill out legal affidavits saying that they have just received and mailed out their absentee ballots.

Clement himself seems wary of such intricacies and says of originality, that there are only three stories: “the little tailor, the man who knew better and boy meets girl.” He believes there are many variations on these themes, but prefers “the man who knew better" because it deals with that to a genre “closest direct confrontation with a problem and its solution." Rita Winston, who came to Alpha Draconis by way of Los Angeles and Philadelphia, dubs herself a “comic book appreciator." Winston acts as sovereign over her brother, whom she directs to purchase certain comics. When asked why she reads comics, site answered. “I like it. It’s good, like sex." Howard the duck A most controversial subject at the convention was a comic book character called Howard the Duck, conceived by Marvel Comics writer, Steve Gerber. Howard is an animal with so’rt of human qualities who has a relationship with a bountiful ex-model, Beverly. Although the book is only a y«tr old, comic merchandisers have been selling first editions of Howard at anywhere from five to twelve dollars per copy. There is even a sfemi-serious move to run Howard in the presidential race; buttons bearing the slogan, “Get Down, America Vote Howard The Duck in ’76” are being sold for — — '■ » » » — one dollar. Portraying satire with topics of reality is the reason Howard sells so well, relates Gerber. “In future issues, Howard will have a nervous breakdown." Entitled Quacko, the series will deal with Howard's inability to deal with his role of protagonistic hero In portraying life at Marvel Comics, Gerber conveys office chaos most succinctly. “Spending a day at Marvel is like taking an eightdiour trip on the subway in New York City. It’s constant frenzy." he said. A problem for Gerber is the Marvel policy of illustrating action scenes rather than those that deal with a more real or imaginative story line David Anthony Kraft, writer for Marvel Comics’ adaptation of Logan’s Run offers the premise that “most Marvel comics sell well. It's those titles that sell least well those that deal with that are imagination and reality discontinued.” — Comic prices Sitting at a table drawing various comic characters are Marvel artists George Perez and Jim Craig. An obnoxious young super-fan wearing a Fantastic Four T-shirt chides Craig. “That’s not the way to draw the Hulk; the Hulk has bigger feet and has four toes, not three.” “This kid’s out for blftod; it may be his own,” jokes Perez. Craig communicates the story of a new super-science hero, 3-Man, as he sketches the — The individual, The Soul, is the creative center of his own world.

The manner in which the State University (SUNY) Board their first open hearing conducted of Trustees Monday at Buffalo State College most assuredly complied with the mandate of the State Legislature, but certainly not with the intention Forced themselves expose to their to student constituents, the Trustees, particularly Chairwoman Mrs, Maurice Moore, seemed far removed from the concerns of the students attending, and evasive and noncommittal on practically every question raised At first, Mrs. Moore seemed almost too removed from reality to be taken seriously, but the skill with which she questions skirted comments and revealed extremely sophisticated methods of evasion Voter registration screw-up To the Editor. For three years I have sat back and watched of student attacks made on student organizations, SA and IRC mainly. However, I cannot sit back aay longer, the “straw has broken the camel’s back.” This year’s SA student voter registration was a farce! Not only did the SA botch up countless initial voter registrations, but they failed to properly handle the absentee ballot scores And throughout the proceedings, her “cocktail party" demeanor certainly did not reveal any empathy for the students. Her insistance that she and the other Trustees have "fought hard" for inexpensive, high-quality public education in New York State understandably met little enthusiasm from students forced to cough up another $100 for tuition and $100 for room rent this year — increases the Trustees approved even before being compelled to do so by the New York State Legislature. All in all, the "open hearing" had the air of a medieval court listening to the petitions of its serfs. Students pleaded discover this until October 25, 1976, only a week prior to the election. This is the date that all applications must be completed. Hence, it was too late. 1 wish to point out that in this election when people talk of voter apathy, they should remember instead cases like this one at U.B. There were voters willing, but the bureaucracy both here at SA as well as throughout the United States has violated our rights as voters in the most important election, the Presidential election.

Smith and the grade change of two students in his class was both inaccurate, and misleading, and as such, constituted irresponsible journalism. To begin with, the article did not provide an accurate presentation of both sides of the issue. Dr. Smith was not given the chance to air his views. In addition, the article bordered on yellow journalism in its presentation of opinion with fact. This served not only to slant the emphasis, but also succeeded in casting aspersions on Dr. Smith’s intentions and character. For example, what is the point in opening a paragraph with the statement that Smith was seen speaking with several members of the Biology Grievance Committee, and was close friends with them, and then following this with the statement that the students’ requests before that committee were denied. The obvious point is an attempt to draw a connection of cause and effect between the two events. It is only logical that a man who has been on the Biology faculty at this University for several years would be friends with various committee members in the department. To infer that this has any bearing on the Grievance Committee’s decision is both inexcusably prejudicial and misleading. The article also made several statements about Dr. Smith being in “conflict” with the department before. What bearing this has on the present topic of grade charige is one I cannot fathom. The only function it serves is to make Smith out to be some sort of a villian or troublemaker. You did not mention that Smith does have an office in the Biology building (Cary 306), and held office hours there from October, 1974 to May of 1976, as ordered by then Provost Nancollas. This fact still bears no relevancy to the purported topic of your article, but its omission is more than relevant to the method of presentation. The article also did not mention that the grading policy in effect at the time the students in question took the course compensated for the grades by the largest correction factor used. In other words, if the largest number of points taken from any one lab group was fifty-four, then following the calculation of grades using statistical distributions, the cut-offs would be lowered by fifty-four points. In this way no one lost any points at the end of the semester, but gained back any points “removed,” and in most cases gained extra points from the lowering of the curve. In addition, anyone who is familiar with Smith’s policies knows them to be more than reasonable. In general, the minimum grade for an A is about 800 out of 1000 points, resulting in an average of 20 percent A’s in each class. It should also be noted that the system which was in effect when the grades in question were administered has since been changed. This was done because of an expression of dissatisfaction by some students, and in direct response to student input. The whole point in having a lab compensation factor was to equalize the effects of an exceptionally hard or easy set of lab quizzes given by any one particular TA. Thus, its purpose was not to penalize students, but to increase fairness in the computation of grades. This reflects Dr. Smith’s sensitivity too, and concern for equality to all students. His belief in not doing for one student what he cannot do for another is precisely what has motivated him to take action concerning the grade changes. Because, as your article also failed to mention, approximately 600 to 800 other people received grades under that same system that semester. Why should only two out of that group be able to change their grades? Is that fair to the rest? It appears that it is the policy of The Spectrum not to present facts as facts, in a logical and coherent mannjer, but to present them according to the whim or opinions of those reporting. In failing to present both sides of the situation clearly and objectively, you have done an injustice not only to one of the most dedicated faculty members of this University, but to your reading public at large, and to your own grading journalistic credibility. Deborah Rose note: We suggest Ms. Rose his opinion of the story. Editor’s ask Dr. Smith for To the Editor specifically affect the various minority clubs around campus. Then the students would have more money One week ago I sent a letter to the editor stating what happened to an amendment I proposed in which no mandatory fees could be spent for refreshments at any Senate or Task Force meeting. In the letter 1 stated that 1 was the only member of for activities because the Student Association would not have to give money to clubs like the Commuter Council and BSD to have their own newspapers and newsletters. It is ironic that The Spectrum enjoys all the benefits of a newspaper (1st Amendment rights) but fails to act like one. In returning to Mr. Englander’s article, I do not think it is foolhardy to be idealistic. The problem with our society is that too many people are afraid to hope for something better and so they accept the Status quo. I refuse to do this and it is not I who is foolhardy but people like Mr. Englander who are blind and refuse to see the light. Mr. Englander is right when he says that the senators are elected in an undemocraHc process, but since he is so interested in this situation, why doesn’t he come up with a solution? Finally, I would like to make it clear that I did the Senate that voted for the amendment. When the amendment was called, following utter chaos which was called debate, 1 saw only my own and no other hand, I was looking closely since I wanted to see who voted the amendment down. I do wear glasses at times and am not in the position to doubt Mr. Englander since all that the minutes taken at the Senate meeting on the amendment say is that the vote clearly failed. Therefore, 1 would like to make a forjnal apology to Mr. Englander and congratulate him for his wonderful insight. The fact that only two people did vote for the amendment does not alleviate the problem. The Student Senate is still elite and furthermore works in a political vacuum. An example of this is last year when the Financial Assembly (made up of Senate members)'voted for increased stipends. How many people reading this letter knew about that? It was only changed because of pressure put on by interest groups during the budget hearings. The majority of the student population had no knowledge and probably less of a care. One way to alleviate the problem is to make the school newspaper a school newspaper arid become more- student oriented. Ever since The Spectrum writers found out that an undergraduate newspaper said that they were the second best school newspaper in the nation, they’ve had their heads in the clouds. It is time to get them back on campus. The role of a newspaper is to make public officials more responsible to their constituency. One way to do this would be to have The Spectrum come to all Senate meetings and inform the students of what goes on. In this way the Senate would not work in a vacuum because the senators would be afraid to pull -the crap they’ve been shovirtg on the students. While The Spectrum is becoming more student oriented, it would help if they would write articles that not write the first (or this) letter to make myself look good. Last year I was a senator also and there were a lot of happenings that upset one; one of them I wrote an amendment on, but there were others where I wrote letters to the editor and was reluctant to send them in. One such happening occurred towards the end of last year when the Senate voted in favor of giving the Minority and International coordinators the right to vote on. the Executive Committee. I agree with this vote, but it strikes me that the Commuter coordinator who strange represents the majority of the undergraduate population (around 60 percent) was not given the same right to vote as the other two. This turned out to be a very important vote when the Financial Assembly adjourned hearings because of student input. What then happened was the Executive Committee made up the budget over the summer when no one was here and the commuter students got screwed like usual. On Thursday, November 4, there will be a meeting of the Student Senate at 4;00. I hope all of you reading this will be there. Steve Ferst Women's night protested To the Editor. of Thursday, Oct. 22nd 150 men were thrown out of the Bubble. The reason was “it’s ladies night.” There were four ladies in the whole Bubble. We explained to the employees that we would leave when enough women came in to utilize the whole facility. They said, “No way, you have to leave.” We couldn’t believe it! Not even half of the Bubble was being occupied, but they said, “Sorry, that’s our policy.” What would it have hurt if we played basketball until more ladies came? It is an absolute disgrace that the whole Bubble cannot be used. To make matters worse, they had schedules posted all over saying that Thursday night was “open recreation.” When we told the employees that, they said, “We know, but there are new schedules.” These “new” schedules say that Thursday night was for ladies only. Also these “new” schedules have not even been put up yet. How could these schedules be binding if no one knows about them? The energy used to light the entire Bubble was almost a total waste. All that energy for four women? The employees knew that they were wrong, but they had to back up the Bubble’s policy in saying, “Well, you can make a complaint.” What good would that do? If we left, and filed a On the night approximately Complaint, it would have defeated our whole purpose. Then the employees said that if we did not leave that they were going to call Security (which they did). They did this as if it were going to scare us off! We waited for Security to arrive. When they finally get there, we explained the whole situation to them. They agreed that it was foolish to close down the whole Bubble for only a few girls. One of the Security men tried to talk to* the manager of the Bubble. It was to no avail. She just shook her head and said, “No way.” Security told us to leave and told us that there was nothing that they could do. They also said that it would really help if we filed a formal complaint with the intramural office instead of staying around and cause what could be a big hassle. Security was good about it and they knew that we did not want any trouble. So we all left. We think that this policy should be changed because everybody suffers from it being the way it is. Everybody loses money from the wasted energy that is being used to light the entire Bubble, especially when only half of it was being used. Everybody also loses time to practice and release their built up hostilities. We ask you, is there a “men’s only” night?

Opening against Albany, the Bulls were simply out-matched, as the Danes crushed the Bulls 8-2. Albany has had a fantastic season, and the Bulls are just one of many defeated opponents. The Bulls’ two goals were scored by Luis Azcue and Brian Van Hatten, while Ali Holder Azcue registered the respective assists. After dropping the first game, traveled to Binghamton take on the Colonials. to Unfortunately, the Colonials were not any friendlier, as the host Binghamton squad surprised the Bulls 3-1. The Bulls were not playing up to par and as a result were unable to sufficiently test their SUNY rival. Buffalo’s lone goal was tallied by freshman Jeff Bulls will be returning next season along with others who saw limited playing time. The latter group includes Barry Kleeman, a proven defenseman and Jim Rudolph, former high school All-American. Also returning are forward George Daddario, fullbacks Wain Reed and Mike Allen and goalie Bill Gleason. Esposito expects to be back for next season. “I always enjoy coaching, and 1 wouldn’t trade any of my players for anyone,” he said. “I’ve enjoyed working with them and I hope to continue to . do so.” But, while Esposito and the above mentioned players will be returning for another season next year, ten seniors will be graduating in June. Among those seniors are some of Buffalo’s best soccer players. Tri-captains Mark Karrer, Brain Van flatten and Pete Weidler held the Bulls together through the turbulent ’76 campaign. Karrer is a possible may All-State selection and continue with the Bulls next year as an Assistant Coach. As quarterback of the Bulls, Van flatten will surely be missed, as will Weidler.

Presented last Tuesday, the request was part of a SI 72 million package to aid many projects throughout the state. The federal funding will come from a two program dollar billion appropriated under the Public a request to the Works employment Act, passed by Congress over President Ford’s veto. Seventy percent of the funds were allocated to industry unemployment rate that, some estimate at forty percent. Such a large input of mohey would construction Spectrum public “stimulate the state’s economy and help the state’s depressed construction industry." according to Carey. Indeed, construction of the Amherst campus has been slowed considerably and the projected completion dale has been shifted from 1 S»75 to 1480. and more recently to 1484. Several factors have delayed work. Initially there were problems concerning site selection. Later, in 1468, a on placed moratorium was construction until issues regarding minority hiring were settled. Last year, a moratorium was placed on all new construction starts, due to the state fiscal crisis. construction. The , projects that would commence construction at the campus include: Amherst warehouse and service buildings, a biology greenhouse, the civil Construction halted In November of last'year, the SUNY Board of Trustees, as a result of the state’s shaky financial standing in the bond engineering building, • a utility market, ordered that new projects distribution system, a fire alarm would not begin construction system, landscaping and other site until the Trustees could assess what was needed by the state work. system.

The Buffalo area has result of being “trapped by the one of the highest unemployment lateness of its construction.” According to SUNV rates in the country, and a Construction Fund head Mort projects Gaff man. currently underway have been financed by bonds at high interest rates, so that the completion of Capen, Cook-Hochstetter. and Furnas Halls, as well as Lockwood Library are guaranteed. The North Campus Boulevard and bridge over Lake Lasalle are also covered by this financing. Acting President of the University Albert Somit has stated several times that the construction be near will completion by January. But Jim University DeSantis of Information has said it is more likely that most of the construction will not be ready even by fall semester of 1477. Thaw unlikely Under the provisions of recent state legislation, according to Ciaffman, it remains difficult for new projects to begin, since financing must be assured. This assurance is reliant upon the slate’s ability to cover bonds that it issues. In addition, the last State Legislature placed a ceiling of $3 billion on projected construction, has been of which SUNY allocated Sb84 million. SUNY Board of Trustees that have taken place in New York City this past week have been called to work out budget reductions from SUNY’s original request of SI billion. The meetings budget will not be released until January when Carey will submit it to the State Legislature for approval. It is likely that both the Governor and the legislature will trim the budget, as they have done in the past. But Gaff man asserts that the “completion of the Amherst campus is a high priority of the State University system, and if cuts are to take place, they would be irr the form of dollars, not programs.” release of the The recent Regents’ plan for the development education, post-secondary of contradict however, may Gaffman’s opinion. The second draft of its report called for the “re validation of currently approved construction projects at the Amherst Campus may begin in Governor Hugh Carey p's request to the Federal Government for a $20 million supplementary budget is passed. The new construction projects are hoped to make an immediate impact on the unemployment problem in Buffalo, which has a construction industry unemployment rate estimated as high as forty percent. Recently scheduled for construction completion in 1975, the new projected completion date is now set for 1984. Among the factors that have led to the delay include a work moratorium in 1968, and, last November, the State's poor bond rating caused the SUNY Board of Trustees to freeze any further construction until the Trustees could assess what was needed by the State system. that an influential that will give high priority to the explained elimination of serious inequities council of private colleges had “recommended that the Regents among institutions."

Klein explained that the recovery from the serious recession of 1974-5 had been “pretty good” until this summer, when the situation shifted abruptly. He felt there was little doubt the economy" is on the “sour side,” noting that almost every accepted barometer of economic activity indicates trouble. The of August-September rate improvement of personal income slowed rapidly, while Department of Commerce revealed the level of real take home pay of American workers remained virtually unchanged, according to Klein. The real take home pay statistic indicates the changes in purchasing power of the workers’ income. If this figure remains stable, it will invariably slow the growth rate of the economy. He felt that it was because the particularly important recovery has been centered on consumer spending. Campus Editor In his “last performance of the campaign,” Lawrence Klein, head of Jimmy Carter’s Economic Task Force, analyzed the state of the American economy and discussed the Carter plans for curing its ills. He spoke to an interested audience in the Fillmore Room last Capital spending Orders for durable goods, materials used in the production process, fell in July, indicating that August and September capital spending has fallen. Klein insisted that a strong level of capital spending is needed to bolster consumer spending for full economic recovery.

The length of the work week for those who are employed, has dropped recently. In addition, Klein saw no improvement in the generally high level of unemployment The American trade balances, which were very strong last year reflected a deficit of S2.5-3 billion. Klein felt this was because the United States is now importing - Lawrence Klein Thursday night, in a program sponsored by the Student Association Speaker Bureau and the Undergraduate Economics Society. Klein, currently the Benjamin Franklin Professor of Economics at the University of Pennsylvania, is renowned as a pioneer in the development pf econometric models used in forecasting economic trends. He is a leader of the Wharton forecasting model, one of t he most widely accepted models in 40 percent of its oil. compared to the 30 percent importation rale it incurred before the Arab oil embargo. Klein expected that the October levels ot industrial production will be down from previous months due to the effects of the Ford Motor Company strike. Retail sales for the fourth quarter will also drop, according to Klein, another result of the strike. A survey indicated that consumer confidence in the economy took a serious drop in October, he-added; /eaui/a. Cyclical economy Klein said that since World War II, every four years has seen a cyclical turn in the economy (a slowdown or recession) with the only the exception being Kennedy-Johnson Vietnam years. He felt the Ford Administration’s slow moving economic policy will lead us to this cyclical downturn, charging that Ford's suggestion to cut both taxes and spending will cause a recession, rather than strengthen the private sector as the Ford people insist. Klein that Ford charged is balanced budget recommending a multiplier effect in reverse. The balanced budget theory indicates that when the government initiates equal increases in taxes and spending, it will lead to a corresponding rise in total income by the same amount. In reverse, tax and spending cuts of the same size will lead to a comparable drop in total income. Klein attacked the Administration’s policy of “benign neglect" towards the economy, adding that it either has a poor understanding of the trouble this neglect can cause, or it is deliberately aiming for a recession. In assessing the role of the Economic Task Forge in the Carter campaign. Klein felt it serves as “service technicians.” Carter presents the group with the target and gr ound rules and the Task Force then takes the suggestion and evaluates its feasibi lity.

Klein then discussed a plan by which private industry, induced by federal subsidies, would enroll 300,000 people a year in job training programs. Klein stressed that the extent to which we are unable to induce the private sector into the job program he would recommend public service jobs. Klein said that by utilizing available macroeconomic tools, it would be possible to reach a level of 5'A percent unemployment, and the resulting one million new jobs would further lower the unemployment rate to 4/> percent. He also felt that in order to bolster the economy, a significant upswing in the housing industry is- necessary, an effort which could be accomplished with the aid of subsidies through standard housing agencies. In addition to the unemployment question. Carter has determined two other ground rules for his administration, according to Klein. A balanced federal budget by 1980 is necessary and possible because, due to the increased level of employment, the economy will generate more governmental revenue, hence there will be less of a demand for transfer payments (income subsidies). Also recommended by Carter is a reduction in the total income generated in the government sector from 23 to 21 percent. Alluding to the level of oil imports, Klein said (he American economy will not proceed unless there is some concrete energy proposal. The Carter plan calls for extensive use of coal, more conservation of fossil fuels and research and development of solar energy. Klein tried to convince the audience the only way to prosperity would l?e by supporting Carter. Klein emphasized the point by quoting his colleague Paul Heller: “If you want to live like a Republican, vote for a Democrat.” The Japanese have reported recently their level of industrial production has dropped, which according to Klein is indicative of the general state of the Western World economy. “The last time they (Western Powers) went into a synchronized slowdown the situation was amplified,” he said. 5^5 ft employment, i.e., an unemployment rate of 4-4 ‘A percent of the total labor force. When questioned on the subject later, Klein explained that an unemployment rate of this size is inherent in an industrial state simply because people have the opportunity to change jobs. — Ui*H£ 20/>(**&/t£f(c&/L, Vo PUrtc , , p0tH&Tjfa /tetcAy?

For those who still endorse the principles behind that is, providing redress for damage Affirmative Action done through years of racism and sexism, there is only one answer close the loopholes. — — The Trustees' guidelines provide that a search committee be formed when a position becomes available to ensure that women and minorities receieve equitable consideration. Federal Affirmative Action guidelines for faculty hiring require that there be public notice of a position's availability and some demonstration that the pool of qualified women and minority candidates has been searched.

Affirmative Action has also been set back by department chairmen, provosts, and other administrators deciding informally among themselves who will be hired for a certain position. The paper work of Affirmative Action is meticulously followed, but the actual decision concerning who is hired in many cases has already been,made. But to cite these obstacles as a way of saying this has fulfilled its committment to Affirmative Action is absurd. The University, for those who think otherwise, has not even approached the point where it could declare it has achieved the spirit of Affirmative Action by increasing the number of minorities and women hired, or boast a system which compels a vigorous search. This was born out by the Reporter this summer in a story modestly headlined, “Affirmative Action found not fully working." University Affirmative Action is not working, partly because administrative devices for sidestepping the guidelines have been exploited. We recommend that acting, visiting and temporary positions either be subject to Affirmative Action guidelines, or, as UUP President Charles Fall has said, be replaced by regular career appointments. A half assed attempt at Affirmative Action is no attempt; until the loopholes are closed, Affirmative Action at this University is a farce.

However, after talking with him several more times. I came to see that he and 1 were in complete agreement on the two key areas of the issue: 1) a collective body of the minority students x>r a representative (such as Mr. Ciuity himself) should have primary decision-making power over the selection of the performers; 2) UUAB Music, because of its expertise, should handle, all of the mechanical aspects of putting the show on, since that is what they are here for. With this in mind, I presented a budget to the Sub Board Board of Directors that included a minority line. However, during the course of the budgeting process, the Board came to the realization present .Music that Committee Chairperson, Len Chodosh, was vastly different than Editor-in-Chief. The Spectrum . Monday, 1 November 1976 arguments. However, what disturbs me most is the question of “you can’t program for me, because you aren’t like me." I was under the impression that we were all rather intelligent, using acceptance at this University as a criteria for intelligence, and that we could work together collectively, while still recognizing our inherent differences. If we cannot overcome our differences in something as trivial as a Music Committee, what the hell are we going to do to each other over more important issues outside the University? This also has a direct implication for every student organization. Does one need to be a number of the constituency being served (or the largest constituency) in order to run an activity? The heads of The Spectrum Sub Board I, and the Undergraduate Student Association are all Jewish. I am not. Yet I know and respect these individuals and could not think of any other persons better capable of running these entities. Need these individuals be deprived of their positions because they don’t represent the statistical common denominator of the UB student body? I still think we can work together. Cutting through the madness of the pressing present situation, I believe Mr. Guity is still a very rational and intelligent person. The very fact that he was able to recognize a $4000 leeway in the Sub Board bodget proves this, as a budget is a relatively confusing document (I would, however, like to point out that over one-half of Sub Board’s income comes 1 from estimated revenue from sales; the $4000 “leeway” represents a cushion to protect us, should the sales not materialize). As for the charges of racism leveled against UUAB, I will give but one example of many that could refute it. Using a medium we all understand the Music money, Committee spent twice as much for the Norman Connors Show as for either the Goodman or Lofgren shows, and more than ten times as much for the Steve Kuhn show. Think about that for a minute. There is no need for us to be adversaries: Mr. Chodosh wants to cooperate. 1 also exhort Mr. Guity to look into the much more vital areas of the health care programs that Sub Board offers. But above all, let's work together and forget our ego problems of who “owns” the money. Wh, [111, STUDKNTS DO! I.alondc is Treasurer of Suh Hoard. , - -- Smith, Reitan and Student in llw lulilnr .

I herefore, former Sub Board Treasurer. Bruce Campbell, set up a "minority line" in the UUAB Music Committee. This, in effect, said, "if you won’t cooperate. I'll force you to by restricting what you are able to do." I bis was, as Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller,has pointed out. an "unprecedented" move. We were hesitant to do this last year, because we were afraid that it would be viewed as a locked-in feature of each year’s budget. Mr. Campbell tried to forestall this by. explaining to the Sub Board Board of Directors in July. I *■>75. that the move was to alleviate a problem this (last) year, and not to be a continuing factor. By the time Mr. Campbell left office, and I was place, his feelings hud changed taking his dramatically. “Whatever you do, don’t set that vehicle up again." was one of his advisements to me. His primary concern was that both he and UUAB did not have control over the mechanical aspects of the show. He had no objection to a continued major in-put by minority students for minority shows. When S.A. Minority Affairs Coordinator, Hd Ciuily. came to see me this summer. I agreed to talk went counter to employment. his predecessor. He wanted to cooperate; he didn’t need to be hit over the head to force him to. Therefore, the Board put the money back into the general Music Committee budget. The theory of providing a service for all students was also the reality; hence no need for a separationist policy. The Board also stressed to Mr.. Chodosh that he would be held accountable for his cooperation: i.e., if he didn’t, he would be fired. Whatever my feelings were in the summer, 1 am now most vehemently against the setting up of. such a line. All the nightmares that Mr. Campbell tried to forestall have come true; this line is viewed as a locked-in feature; its' exclusion is viewed as a “cut"; this money is viewed as “belonging to” the minority students. The rational, calm person that 1 spoke to in the summer, now makes appointments with me, breaks them, and later says nothing to me. But most of all, if this line were to be created now, it would be because of arguments in halls, picketing and general pressure, not because of any need nor any logical May I correct some details in your October 27 story about Dr. Reitan S change of grades for tWo of my students?

Mr. Tylinski suggests that The Spectrum print “impact news” by publicizing violent crimes rape, armed robberies, felonies, etc. to dramatize Buffalo’s law enforcement problems. Sir, you want rape, the most humiliating and dehumanizing violent crime publicized? You think reporting like that would change the present situation for the better? Do you actually believe re-exposing the University community for the hundreth time to those problems would help? The majority of the people are aware that these problems exist. Too much of the new reportings already are sick, sensationalistic film reports of bloodied people, or their loved ones, in pain (e.g., Ch. 7, Hyewitness - News). The Spectrum is one of the very few news periodicals one can pick up and read of non-violent, peaceful events. 1, for one, hope that they keep the slick sickness out! Tina Slasuke The gravy bowl To the t'.ditor. I’m annoyed. A complete stranger, identifying himself as a representative of the GSEU, just phoned me to urge me, in a tone of insolent familiarity, to join that organization. I politely but firmly said 1 wasn’t interested, giving my reasons; and hoped that just for-once, these people might take “no” as an answer. But I wasn’t surprised when the pushy invader of my privacy tried to enter into a debate on the question with me. When 1 made it clear that 1 wasn’t interested in wasting my time debating, either, he resorted to outright insult, whereupon 1 hung up on the pest. I suggest that anyone else who receives such nuisance calls treat them with the contempt they deserve. If such gross discourtesy is at all typical of the GSEU’s official representatives, one shudders to think what the group’s rank-and-file members must be like. But then again, reading the organization’s paranoid propaganda should be enough to answer that question. Because there will no doubt be a half-dozen letters of indignant rebuttal in next week’s Spectrum, let’s get one fact straight. Nobody who voluntarily accepts free tuition and a stipend in exchange for a few hours’ work each weejk can seriously be considered a “victim of the system” or “exploited” by it. There may be a few dedicated TA’s out there who do spend forty hours a week preparing to teach two or three times a week; somehow I doubt it (I work outside the University to supplement my stipend, instead of whining for a larger handout.) If anyone is being exploited, it’s the students, who (in most cases) pay tuition for the dubious privilege of being taught by inexperienced TA’s who, on their part, are virtually guaranteed whether funding for four years (or however long) they learn how to teach in the interval or not. Nobody reviews or evaluates the teaching work done by us TA’s (in fact, my experience is that nobody Up There is particularly interested in it); nobody suggests that merely scoring high on a Graduate Record exam does not necessarily qualify a person to teach at the college level. But the literature so industriously distributed by the GSEU consistently ignores this problem: the truth, I tear, is that we TA’s know a cushy “job” when we’re sitting on it, and that the GSEU’s main goal is to make things the students’, of even cushier. At whose expense? course: where else is all this extra money tor assistantships and fatter stipend checks supposed to come from? 1 can’t think of anything more hypocritical than begging to be admitted into the system (remember how elated you felt when you received that Letter of Acceptance from U.B.?), and then condemning the system for living up to one’s expectations of it. I came here of my own free will and I can throw up — Damaging report criticized note: The following letter was sent to President Robert Ketter. Editor’s As representatives of the student body at the School of Information and Library Studies, we wish to register our shock and anger upon reading the Report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning.

Is the Committee in tact a disinterested body formed to ascertain how the University may best serve its students?

The best programming may apply to the vast majority of white students but certainly not the blacks.

I hey didn’t mention the fact that it was due to their “expertise” that there was an oversale. Also, someone should talk about the tact that UUAB incurred losses of SbO.OOO in their ettorts to program “good” concerts. I ve heard about the people who knocked down doors and scalped tickets to get in. So, we don’t want any advisement from UUAB, etc. You know who you are. We will do any help, our own programming now and in the future. You just keep plugging your concerts and keep losing $60,000 because we’ll make it without you just like we have done before. my assistantship and leave any time; New York State promised to pay for my education; it is paying for my education, and I think that teaching my one class per semester to the best of my ability is the least 1 can do in return. That isn’t slavery; it’s the gravy bowl. It's not exactly living in the real world, either; but neither is GSHU’s welfare-state mentality and its fantasies about our total helplessness and our supposed inability to make decisions tor ourselves. So let’s quit our bellyaching and get down to Jhe tough business of teaching within an admittedly imperfect and sometimes rather shoddy system instead of complaining because the tree ride could be smoother still. Hrad Dcamcr - Ora Clark I-rank A. Watson Monday, 1 November 1976 . The Spectrum . Page nine �McFarland and energy To the Editor. The article on the candidate forum which appeared in Friday’s The Spectrum omitted a heated discussion between State Senator James McFarland anfl several students which took place at that forum. The issue at hand was the position McFarland has taken on recent energy legislation. Why should students even be interested in energy? Well, students pay bills and figured in there somewhere is electricity. Students, like other people on limited incomes, are finding the higher and higher costs of electricity harder and harder to pay. Another reason for students to be concerned with energy is that they breathe polluted air and at least 2/3 of the sulfur and nitrogen oxides found in that air are placed there by the energy industry. James McFarland has been instrumental in the defeat of several energy bills which are listed below. Home Insulation Bill would have provided poor people with loans to insulate their homes. Loans which would pay themselves off in several years with the energy saved by the insulation. a bill which called for Nuclear Responsibility clean, safe energy. Lifeline a bill which would have reversed the present rate structure so that poor people would no longer supplement industry’s wasteful useage of - , — - energy. McFarland’s position on these bills caused one consumer to comment, “One. of the greater environmental actions to occur on Nov. 4 would be to have J. McFarland kicked out of office.” ' Kristen Marshall Sorry To the Editor. Your coverage of “The Citizen and the Law, A Western New York Conference,” as reported in The Spectrum of 20 October, was in error. The moderator of the Victimless Crimes Workshop was attorney Paul A. Cambria, Jr. of Buffalo, not Michael J. Brown. Richard M. Moskowitz Rape, racism To the Editor. Questions of rape and racism are likely to arouse feelings, so perhaps the belligerent and muddled response by Melodi Shapiro to my letter concerning the Kenneth Johnson defense (Spectrum Oct. 18, 1976) can be excused. What cannot be excused, however, is her labelling “a blatant lie” my statement that the defense has been canvassing neighbors of the rape victims to discover any personal habits which could be used to destroy the characters of the helpless victims. In fact, I live upstairs from one of the rape victims. About a month ago a man entered our house, identified himself as a private investigator for the Kenneth Johnson defense, and asked the very questions 1 quoted in my previous letter. There were a number of people present, all of whom will confirm this fact. Ms. Shapiro, immediately after calling me a liar, stated that she would like to know where I obtained this “false” information. 1 suggest that she should have asked this question before making her libellous slurs. Apparently she is not as interested in facts as she is in accusations. I must reiterate that I abhor the manner in which Johnson was arrested. He has the right to present any exculpatory evidence to the jury, and to be afforded every opportunity to clear himself of these gruesome charges. I object only to Johnson’s defense tactic of attempting to defame the characters of innocent women raped at gunpoint in order to shield himself from being brought to justice. Ms. Shapiro has taken a page from Mr. Johnson’s book. Just as Mr. Johnson’s defense tactic is to attack the characters of his accusers, so Ms. Shapiro’s vitriolic letter labels me a racist and a blatant liar without responding to the issues 1 have raised. The closest she came to dealing with the issues in her angry and incoherent response was her baffling reference to Joanne Little. I welcome further response from Ms. Shapiro, but I suggest that more careful and reasoned thought and less slander are necessary for a full understanding of these strong , complex problems. Michael Kaye Page ten . The Spectrum . Monday, 1 November 1976 TRB. from Washington Round about 11 o’clock on election night we will get the results from Dixville Notch, New Hampshire (unless a rival town slips in ahead); they were first in ,1972 when they plumped 19 to 1 for Richard Nixon, and they have been organizing for months. If the Dixville Notch Republican vote is reduced this year, as seems likely, the great media projection machine will start grinding for the night’s work; Walter Cronkite, albeit he wears a smile, asks his audience whether this betokens a “trend” and before long statistics and tabulations will come pouring in as the hungry univac swallow it and who knows the result? Maybe we will get to bed by one. Not in 1960, though; at 2 a.m. there was a two million majority for Jack Kennedy, which melted to a million a couple of hours later. Along with the milkman came alternative leads from straining reporters all over America: one projecting Kennedy, one Nixon, one a toss-up for the bulldog edition. It wasn’t till 12:33 p.m. Eastern Standard Time Wednesday that Minnesota fell to Kennedy and it was over. Dixville Notch is a n ski area town and brings the circle to where the 1976 show started; a thousand eager citizens last January stamped in from the snow and sparkling stars and near-zero weather to the pastel green-and-white cinder block high school auditorium at Conway, not far from the Notch, in a scene out of Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town.” Ronald Reagan threw off his fleece-lined mackinaw to denounce the Washington “buddy-system” and undercut President Ford (whom Manchester Union-Leader publisher Bill Loeb called “Jerry the Jerk”). Meanwhile over at Durham, N.H. in the first of America’s 30 primaries the “Man Nobody Knew” was telling an audience that he was born-again, that he wouldn’t tell them a lie, and that he wanted to make the American government as fine (pause), as honest (pause), as decent (pause), as honorable (pause)... as the American people. The American presidential courtship dance is the longest in the world and nothing is more amazing than the way supporters find logical arguments to defend the illogical system. The surprising thing is that it works in its peculiar way even in this year in which voters seem more pessimistic than usual about their ability to make things happen. They have had the aid, from the beginning, of course, of the mass media and the political plenum of press pundits. How else could ceremony progress? The ambiguity of the primaries brings in the press who must not only report but act as referee and interpreter, and 22,895, which was more than Udall got (24 percent), or Bayh (16 percent). So he was a sensation. The camera crews had been prowling the drifts for weeks. New Hampshire has knocked out presidential candidates; George Romney, Edmund Muskie, Lyndon Johnson. Would it happen again? The public looks at the primaries as a spectator sport and doesn’t know the names of the players; if there is a contest somebody must say who wins and that function falls to the press. In 1972 it arbitrarily said Muskie must get at least half to remain in first place; he got 46 percent (more than anyone else) but the anchor men in TV studios and pundits in newsrooms said that this wasn’t enough; although he won, he lost. LBJ’s showing in New Hampshire in 1968 was below expectations, too, and both men dropped out later. Carter got a low handicap, however, as a newcomer, and was decided to have won. He went on to Florida, the state adjacent to Georgia, and beat George Wallace, 34 percent to 31 percent. He was proclaimed Front Runner and champion. And why not; In the unique scramble he had shown ambition, audacity, and ability, and was nominated thereafter at Madison Square Garden by hopeful but still-wondering delegates. So now we wait for the last act and look back at went before. Past elections have been remembered by phrases:' the Cross of Gold speech; the boos that became known as “Bronx cheers” at Madison Square Garden in 1924; Teddy’tf “Bull Moose”; Harding’s “Normalcy”; “Prosperity is just around the corner” of poor old Hoover; FDR’s “little dog Fala”; Goldwater’s “in your heart you know he’s right.” How about 1976? It has been a silent year.. These are nol:' the type that emit verbal what sparks. It was the first year that the government helped campaign expenditures, one of the few genuinely revolutionary changes in American politics in modern times. Although far from perfect, and yet to be applied to Congressional races, the system is a vast improvement over four years ago; in 1972 some 153 domors between them gave $20 million to the Nixon campaign; today 32 million Americans checked off the $1 contributions for this year’s campaign. After Watergate 15 big corporations pleaded guilty to making illegal contributions Gulf, Goodyear, Phillips Petroleum, American Airlines, Greyhound, and so on in some cases the money was “laundered,” first in Mexico. I think we will never go back to that, whatever changes are made in the new system. What phrase do we remember 1976 by? It is the year where Reagan constantly nudged Ford to the right, to drop “detente,” to drop Rockefeller, to pick Bob Dole as running mate. (Reagan himself picked Schweiker.) It is the year that Reaganites introduced the bullhorns at Kansas City, when the economy had a “pause,” when abortion was an issue, when there was a 28 minute gap in the TV dabate; yes, when for the second time in history rival candidates stood on the same platform and confronted each other. The year of the Playboy thereby participate. Take the Iowa caucus of January 19. Gov. interview, of the amnesiac answer on Eastern Carter had been preparing for this for two years. Europe. Most of the incidents seem rather negative. Only 45,000 Democrats voted (10 percent) and It has not been a vintage presidential year. But in Carter got 27.6 percent of this (Brich Bayh 13 retrospect it could appear as momentous as any as percent). Nobody cared about the numbers; he had we see the qualities of the next president won, hadn’t he? The monster publicity machine was confronting the overwhelming problems awaiting activated.

Anzalone is considered to be a major factor in the Bulls’ overall success, and is termed “an excellent hockey player,” by Buffalo coach Kd Wright. Other notable players up front include Ray “Toughie” Gruarin, Mike Dixon. Rick Costello, Jack Kaminska. and Chris Bonn. The top man between the pipes for the Bulls is senior John Moore. Moore has been the big honcho in goal for Buffalo for the past three seasons, and is playing as well as ever. Behind Moore is newcomer Mike Bagocus, who is expected to see a lot of action and provide the Bulls with capable relief in the nets. Goaltending depth was a questionmark last season, but appears to be solid for the upcoming campaign. With the offense intact from last season, and good netminding even better, the Bulls only worry spot may be on defense. If Tony Scaringi and the freshmen live up to expectations, then post-season play will be almost a certainty for the Buffalo skaters. by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Spectrum Offense, defense and goaltending are the three main Components of an ice hockey team. It is generally necessary to get good performances from all three if the team is to win. This year the hockey Bulls may only have two out of three in working order, and that could very well put a crimp in their plans for the HCAC Division II playoffs. The Bulls boast a powerful, if sometimes inconsistent offense, very solid goaltending, and an untested rookie defense. The latter is the key to Buffalo’s success this season. Five of last year’s starting blueliners have not returned to Buffalo leaving team captain Tony Scaringi with his work cut out. Last year Scaringi provided a lot of scoring punch from the backline, hut this year he will have to concern himself primarily with stabilizing his freshmen teammates. Working with him are Dave Golda, Tim Hervey, Paul Pitman, Dan Gemmer, Gary Trumpfheller, and Tony Vesona, all newcomers to the Bulls squad. Men burst women's bubble by Joy Clark Staff Writer Spectrum Several men who were not allowed into the Bubble on Thursday because it was Women’s Night protested and only left at the strong insistance of Campus Security Many of the men relied on a schedule in Clark Hall which said that the Bubble was open for basketball on Thursday. When they arrived, they were told that it was Women’s Night, and had to leave. They became angry, and re fused Their comments ranged from “Where are all the women?” to “When is it Men’s night?” Despite numerous requests from the recreation workers to leave, they stayed and some even began to basketball. Finally, play supervisor Jack Kaminski called Campus Security. It took Security officers ten minutes to convince the men to leave. A spokesman for Campus Security felt the incident was blown out of proportion. “There was no problem,” he said. “We GMAT • OCAT CPAT • • VAT Over 3 8 years of experience and success. Small classes.

Critics of the program point that there are not enough athletic facilities at this campus in the first place, and that closing one of them to a majority of its users is unfair.

Women's Night turned into a tragedy. The Recreation Department had a good idea. Since most women were inhibited about playing on the same court as men, tire Recreation Department closed the Bubble to men on Thursday nights, and the women could use the facilities in any way they wanted.

The Board of Trustees arranged for nine students to speak for a maximum of five minutes each. Among the schools in SUNY Regiorl 1 invited to attend were: Fredonia, Geneseo, Buffalo State, SUNY at Buffalo, Brockport and community colleges in the neighboring area. Representatives from this University, unaware of time limitations, originally scheduled to take up all nine spots, until Student Association (SA) members realized there was a time and space factor involved. Subsequently, they relinquished three of their spots to other schools. University issues Among the students who will be speaking on behalf of this University are: Lynn Bittner who will discuss the mandatory fee guidelines; llene Cohn who will determine the effectiveness of Affirmative Action on SUNY campuses; Ed Guity on the formation and status ol the Third World Caucus, and its seating on the Student Assembly; Dan Weissberg on the status of student services; Steven Schwartz who will offer an overall view ot this and Andrew Lalonde who will discuss academics, specifically the implications of the Dearing memorandum which defines the Carnegie Unit as one credit hour per contact hour. Jewish Student Union (JSU) President Allen Clifford will also make an appeal to the Board to pressure the Administration to proclaim Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur as observed holidays. Clifford contends that this is the last and most crucial opportunity for the JSU td win its four-year struggle with the Calendar Committee. Students who wish to make brief extemporaneous statements (no more than three minutes) will be requested to file their names with the hearing registration officer who will be present at the meeting. Time for such comments will be set aside for the end of the meeting. University; The Spectrum State Vol. 27, No. 29 University UUAB pushes next concert despite minorities’boycott by R. Gilbert and Rob Cohen an imminent Despite by the Student boycott Minorities Association Affairs division. University Activities Board Union (UUAB) is intent upon following through with its Sunday night concert at Shea’s Buffalo, featuring black rhythm and blues artist Norman Connors. A general boycott of all UUAB events was declared by afternoon Monday Minority Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity and representatives of PODER and the Black Student Union (BSU) at a stormy meeting in Haas Lounge. The groups were over Sub Board’s irate UUAB’s elimination of minority programming line during budget hearings last August. The allocation was slashed at the collective recommendation ol UUAB’s directors. The minority 'coalition is soliciting endorsements trom Jesse NAACP and Jackson’s Operation Push and has already received a statement of support from the Black Liberation Front at State. Organized Buffalo pickets are planned for the front of Shea’s Buffalo Saturday night with a large turnout anticipated. Guity stated that signs are being printed and that the news media have been notified. minority The is issue programming one ot control. primarily Willing to accept advisement the and “input” on programming of interest to minority groups, UUAB is not willing to relinquish control of funds for such programming. BSU and POD HR have that traditionally asserted of are most campus activities or has little little use attraction for minorities and declare that their control of some funding is necessary to minority that guarantee needs are met. racist mentalities that are prevalent.” With .regard to the sudden decision to boycott UUAB, Guity claimed that he had tried to work “hand in hand” Student with the Association, and said he had been told early this semester UUAB’s explanation of their position relates to last year’s minority-managed “Eunkadelics” concert that had been oversold and caused violence resulting in $1800 to the concert damage UUAB feels this facilities. mandates experience ultimate UUAB management of program funds. stated that Sub t he paren t organization of UUAB, had expenses of $693,000. and an income of more than $697,000. “There’s $4000 floating around,” he said. The minority coalition has leveled charges of racism Sub UUAB and against Board, have who subsequently denied them. Guity further declared that, “I don’t see any reason why that line was cut, other than with that the situation resolved. funding could be A UUAB spokesperson declared that UUAB was just “trying to promote the best programming available to us, at the least cost to the student.” If UUAB has ultimate control over all its monies, he explained, prices will be lower since the organization has constant contact with the agents involved. A UUAB view of input was detailed in a letter to iw UUAB Music The Committee was allocated $42,000 year this $56,000 last opposed to year, or a $14,000 cut.

See story on page 3. Several �‘Cliffies’ and UUAB content with settlement A compromise settlement lias he,en reached satisfying both Clifford Furnas College (CFC) and the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) concerning the use of Fargo Cafeteria for spcial events. The problem arose earlier this month when members of CFC complained that UUAB coffeehouses were in effect taking a ay their “living room.” This claim was based on CFC’s use ol Fargo Caleteria as a college meeting place and as a passageway between l argo Quad, the CFC residence area, and the rest of the Fllicott Complex on the Amherst Campus.. The college complained that planned coffeehouses would hinder the spontaneity of student interaction, a basic tenet of the college’s philosophy. UUAB originally scheduled the coffeehouses for the Wilkeson Pub, alternating with disco bands that also appear, regularly. But UUAB Coffeehouse Chairwoman Judy Castan/a and assistant Food Service Director Don Bozak agreed that the conflicting atmospheres ot the two activities spoiled the mood of the coffeehouses and decided to move the coffeehouses to Fargo Cafeteria. The compromise agreement was drawn up by CFC and presented at a meeting attended by Castan/.a, Bo/ak, vice president tor Facilities Planning John Teller, Acting Faculty Student Association (FSAI President Steve Spiegel, Bob Weiss of C’FC and others. Basically, the agreement allows UUAB coffeehouses to be scheduled on half of the Friday nights during the semester. CFC will have control of the Fargo area during the remainder of the time. Spiegel’s assessment of the effectiveness of the agreement was representative of the general feeling of those at the meeting. “It's mostly an agreement of good intent,” he said, adding that scheduling conflicts are not likely to occur because CFC functions and the coffeehouses will not likely fall on the same weeks. Everyone appears to he at least mildly content. UUAB Division Director Jeff Lessoff concluded, “I don’t like it, but I think we can work with it. It’s probably the best solution under the circumstances.” Spiegel added that Castanza was satisfied with the agreement and would now begin coordinating Main Street and Amherst Campus coffeehouses on a regular basis. CFC Communications Director Jim Wegman also agreed that both sides will be able to work under the agreement, noting. “It's an adequate compromise between the two groups." Another difficulty encountered between CFC and UUAB centered around a wall needed to enclose the coffeehouse area. The wgll was deemed necessary to maintain the coffeehouse “atmosphere.” and also as a means of effectively collecting admissions to the coffeehouses. The CFC proposal calls for an accordion wall, similar to the one used in Norton Cafeteria. This proposal was agreeable to both sides because of its temporary nature. However, construction of any wall would have to be paid for by Food Service, and Spiegel said funds available for sitch a wall are limited. Telfer has already begun investigating possible walls, and concluded that an accordion wall, such as the one proposed by CFC. “looks like a rather horrendous job." He explained the cost of such a wall is likely to be well out of FSA's range. "We’ll look at the problem and within two weeks get a preliminary idea of what’s involved.” he said. that Teller might he overly concerned with aesthetic value of the Fargo C afeteria area, arid therefore unwilling to erect a wall within I SA’s financial means. Spiegel agreed with Lessoff and added that this problem could be potentially serious. But Lessoff said ruining the wwwwww DEADLINE: November 1st, 1976 Part-time student & dependent \ coverage of Student Health Insurance Applications available in 225A and 214 Norton .vwvwvwv Dr. Salma Jayyusi will be discussing FDA to phase out aerosols by Jim Hartwell S/H’ctivm Staff Writer people.” It’s a simple case of benefit measured negligible against possible catastrophic risk The Food and Drug both for individual citizens and Administration (FDA) has for society alike.

In compliance with FDA requirements, warnings will soon appear on the labels of all aerosol products affected by the FDA’s regulations.

In an October 22 news release concerning Laetrile. James Wallace, Jr.. Chief of Cancer Control at Roswell, urged cancer patients to “stay -under the care of a qualified physician who utilizes the acceptable methods of cancer treatment.” Vitamin BI7 when taken orally can decompose into highly toxic substances in the body and may prove fatal, warned the newsletter. Spectrum The “Apricot Kernel Underground” is a desperate attempt to defeat cancer a disease which kills 1000 Americans'each day. John A. Richardson, a California physician, is one of sixteen people and three companies .that have been indicted for “smuggling or conspiring to smuggle Laetrile,” a Vitamin BI7 extract which is primarily derived from apricot pits. Laetrile’s role in the treatment of cancer has been a source of medical controversy for over 30 years. Only during the past few years, however, has it received much public attention. In September 1974, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) issued a m.emo, labeling Laetrile a new unlicensed drug, rather than a vitamin. As suclL its possession and use are illegal. Laetrile updated Richardson spoke at a public seminar “Non-Toxic Approach to Cancer Laetrile Updated,” held Sunday at the Niagara Falls Convention Center. Some 800 people gathered to hear the proponents of Vitamin BI7 therapy, among them Dr. Dean Burk, a founder of the National Cancer Institute. The program began with a film, “World Without Cancer,” which provided the audience with background information on Laetrile. It stated that Laetrile has been successful in the treatment of cancer in humans, as proven by thousands of documented cases from the 27 countries where BI7 is available for use. The film also publicized 27 separate reports by respected physicians on these findings. A vitamin deficiency Vitamin does contain two BI7 poisonous molecules cyanide and benzaldehyde. However, the film staled that these are locked into the vitamin and as such are inert and harmless to a normal cell. Cancer is basically a vitamin deficiency, it continued. When any injury occurs to the body, the hormone estrogen is released, causing a buildup of tissue known as trophoblast. These cells have been proven “beyond any doubt’’ identical to cancer cells, stated the film, which offered proof from experiments to back up this claim. It went on to explain that cancer (trophoblast) cells contain the enzyme Betaglucosidase which unlocks the poisonous molecules of B17, allowing them to destroy it. “Cancer cells die off like Hies,” the narrator declared. Richardson said that his patient’s tumors had disappeared after six weeks on metabolic treatment program of a concentrated doses of nutrients, including Vitamin BI7. “One of Laetrile’s immediate — ( — which were made available to the American Cancer Society (ACS) and the American Medical Association (AMA).

Michael Culbert, author of two books on Laetrile, denounced these traditional practices “senseless burning. — cutting and poisoning,” adding “voodoo witchcraft is as effective as these orthodox methods Culbert termed the FDA ruling on Laetrile “the grossest, most immoral element of the cancer crackdown,” charging the FDA with protecting the interests of the AMA and ACS. “The science of cancer therapy is riot as complicated as its politics,” he asserted. “Laetrile is saying to a $25 billion cancer —continued on page 16 HLLOWEEN PHRTY s.n.

Buckley ran on a platform of “racism, said Aptheker, cuts in Buckley an social services and increases in the military budget. Terming owner of a multi-millionaire said he is Aptheker “open reactionary,” “monopolies and the Buckley Oil Company who has served the Pentagon” well, Time offers no choice Aptheker said that Moynihan has served both Democrat Johnson and Republicans Nixon and Ford. As Nixon s Urban Advisor, Mo'ynihan told Business Week in 1969 that if half a dozen American cities were to disappear due to the urban crisis, it would not cause “any real regret,” Aptheker recounted. Moynihan was the “chief attacker” of third world nations as Ford’s representative in the U.N., said Aptheker, and he was forced to resign because his “snobbish and racist” remarks made him “universally despised and boycotted.” Aptheker blasted the New York Times for refusing to allow him to debate Buckley and Moynihan, and for consistently ignoring his campaign “If you’re turned off by the Senatorial race between Buckley and Moynihan, you’ve got plenty of company,” Aptheker said. “That’s not choice it’s an insult.” To point up the similarities of Buckley and Moynihan, Aptheker said that Buckley’s brother, William, named Moynihan, “Man of the Year” in his right-wing National Review magazine. Aptheker ridiculed the New York Times for its recent headline, “Economy not cooperating with Ford,” as if to imply that the economy is some strange being with a will of its own. “But this is not for the Times to explain,” Aptheker quipped. Carter’s state, Georgia, is about to execute a prisoner next week, Aptheker explained, and unemployment insurance has run out for many of our nation’s 12 million unemployed. But the Times doesn’t talk about these things, Aptheker emphasized. Instead, the Times screams about the lack of “freedom” in Hungary, Romania, Poland and other Eastern European countries after the Communists came to power, Aptheker said. “But Hungary, Rumania and Poland were free when fascism ruled,” Aptheker asked a — • sarcastically. UUAB MUSIC and WGRQ FM 97 Radio proudly present A very special concert “Apparently Bulgaria was free when King Boris reigned and poverty was endemic,” Aptheker added. “And Rumania was free when Queen Marie reigned and Shell Oil and Rockefeller owned the country; and Poland was free when the colonels and the landlords dominated and anti-semitism was official and ferocious,” he exclaimed. “We have been governed by liars, murderers, assassins and thieves. It is publicly admitted,” Aptheker asserted. “They must lie because they are serving a dying imperialism.” “Anti-communism is the major crime of the 20th century,” Aptheker charged. Under its, banner, nations have been plundered, record profits have been recorded, and vicious wars unleashed. Aptheker said that this crime of anti-communism “took the sight from the chairman of our party, Henry Winston, took years away from Elizabeth Gurley Flynn and Gus Hall, and is responsible for the arrest of W.E.B.

From a shortage of herbs at the North' Buffalo Food- Coop to what may become the biggest U.S. postal logjam in history, the impact of a mere 450 workers operating out of the Dingens Street “hub” in South Buffalo is slowly coming to our realization.

Wednesday, talks were again in - progress, but no word has been to as relevant that time. The third ‘voice’ A worthwhile understanding of the strike must bear in mind a central fact! This is that the international union (as distinct from its component parts, the locals) is usually unsympathetic if not hostile to the wishes of much of the membership. Members with these feelings now form a third the tiny side to the negotiations but growing organized voice of the ‘disenfranchised’ UPS Teamster. Tilts voice is raised in its most cogent form by UPSurge, a rank-and-file group of workers within the union who Were sufficiently discontent to create an organization which attempts to force the international into a more militant position when negotiating with the company. The UPSurge slogan, ‘Use the Union’s power,’ is designed to fight what UPSurge feels is the tendency of the international to sell out the membership and settle for terms unfavorable in most respects to the average union member. An example of this Teamster proclivity is in its use of the power to extend contracts. Most Teamster extensions are piade without membership consent or Although almost all input. Teamster contracts ended May 3 1, the Union extended some, but not others, permitting the company to have a part of its operations running at all times. This helps the solve a cash flow company problem it could have had, and facilitates UPS attempts to scab on those who are on strike. .

Trustees open hearing The This Monday SUNY students in Western’ New York will have a rare opportunity to see and speak to the SUNY Board of Trustees. The public hearing at Buffalo State College at 2 p.m. is being held in compliance with a bill passed earlier this year by the New York State Legislature. The Trustees must hold public hearings four times this year. Let's be sure and make the most of it. The majority of the testimony to the Trustees has for Student Association been scheduled already representatives, who will make five minute statements on various aspects of the University. This is somewhat unfortunate. Students who wish to speak are limited to three minutes, and must file their names with a hearing registration officer. This structure more or less insures that the dialogue with the Trustees will be with hopefully well-prepared student government officers instead of average students. In spite of this, it is crucial that students from this University make a strong showing at the hearing, at least as a way of telling the Trustees we are concerned with our education in SUNY. The. most notable scheduled statement perhaps will be the one from Jewish Student Union President Allen Clifford. He will appeal to the Trustees to exert pressure on the SUNY Buffalo administration to proclaim Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur, observed holidays. We feel such action is long overdue and hope the Trustees give it careful attention. 1976-77 edition of the SUNYAB Student Directbry has been published, mailed, delivered and any number of other things that the Student Association deemed necessary before we, its fee payers, were _worthy of reaping its untold benefits. It is unfortunate, however, that the SA did not take the time to verify, correct and authentisize its contents, in addition to the aforementioned, in I could think of. I was overwhelmed by the number of errors and incomplete information. It wasn’t until the sixteenth name that I looked up that I finally found a totally correct entry. The error-free phone number and address shocked me. 1 thought there must have been some sort of mistake. How could this correct listing be found in this mess of mistakes known as the Student Directory? It must every person have been a fluke. It wasn’t until later that day that I heard that someone had been told that someone had talked to someone who had read somewhere that if there had been a mistake on your ID card, you could correct it before the same mistake was printed in the preparation of its directory. To state it simply: the number of erroneous listings is enormous. Upon receiving my directory, I, perhaps egotistically, but not unlike everyone else who directory.

Other important issues we hope will be discussed —The SUNY budget this year in all expectations will be poor, and require further program retrenchment. The Trustees must be made aware of the serious institutional damage being done throughout SUNY. —Although it is not likely tuition will be raised this year, it is virtually inevitable to go up next year. Last year the Trustees said in raising tuition that they were forced to do so by Governor Carey's budgeting. —Construction at the Amherst Campus is once more in doubt. This University really cannot bear the added financial and administrative burden of an extended transition period between two campuses. It's crucial this point be brought home to the Trustees —The four-course load at this University and at SUNY Binghamton have come under the strongest attack in their history this year. If the course load is to be defended, the case in its favor must be made at the public hearing Monday. The Spectrum Vol. 27, No — To the Editor. In his letter to the editor, Steve Ferst claimed to the “only one person” who voted for his “amendment that would set a policy in which no mandatory fees could be spent, by the Student Senate and all Task Forces, for the use of buying refreshments for these meetings.” Beg to differ. I voted with him. And basically for the same reasons. One further comment. Steve expresses his hope that his letter might shake “the Senate into becoming a little more student oriented.” Ah! The splendor, the wonder, the foolhardiness of idealism ! be To dream thp impossible dream! When so many of the representatives (?) are chosen by relatively small groups of students, i.e., the task forces, myself included, how can you possibly make the assumption that they should be representing all students? Morally, of course, they should be. And in the present Senate structure, they are indeed “student oriented.” Sometimes the students they are oriented towards just happen to be members of a small group. And sometimes that small group consists solely of themselves. Glenn Hnglander Decadent capitalist ends representation in egotistical orgasm and paroxysms of power.

One-sided view To the Editor Your story marking the thirty-first anniversary of the United Nations takes a very one-sided view of this hallowed organization that is as ineffectual as the League of Nations of fifty years ago. The article takes a definitely Third World approach in the section about the U N. opposing racism. In this section it does not talk about the issue concerning Israel and how the nouveau riche Arab block is dominating the floor in all U.N. committees. The major powers of the Western World are frightened to stand up to the Arabs for fear of loosing their oil. So far they’ve voted against all amendments opposing Israel, but with the Common Market and the U.S. having economic troubles, how long can they stand up to these Arab rascists? They are using their power to try to snuff out the State of Israel. Is this not a racist act as Israel is the home of the Jewish people? This is as racist an act as the white control of Angola, Mozambique, Rhodesia and South Africa. 1 am not writing this letter merely for the sake of defending Israel in the U.S.. but for the sake of an unbiased newspaper that reports the facts as we the people see them. Let’s just have the facts and stories as they plainly are seen everywhere else. Don’t hype the U.N. up to be the all-powerful organization that it appears to be in your article. It is just the tool of whoever happens to hold the cards at the moment. Robert Konen Page eight . The Spectrum . Friday, 29 October 1976 �I Bentley's Pilate': noteworthy theme but lacking entertainment value by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Arts Staff From the' Memoirs of Pontius Pilate by Eric Bentley was a fair testimony of the strength of the Department of Theatre and the Center for Theatre Research. The quality of the production was meritorious in general. There were problems, however, despite the ingenuity and hard work of those involved. The plot was unique: Imagine one Yeshu, a nice Jewish boy, whose mother, along with various angels and prophets, prods him towards an unusual being the Messiah. Common sense tells vocation him that he doesn't have what it takes, but he continues studying diligently, until one day it appears that he's finally reached his goal. He abruptly learns that his qualifications are inadequate and is arrested and stripped of his practice. Actually, Yeshu is Bentley's representation of Jesus Christ as Bentley would like him to have been. Played with passion by Evan Parry, Yeshu's past parallels the Gospel account until the beginning of Christ's ministry. After that point, all similarities end. Barrabas (as in “Give us . .") announces to Yeshu that he is an agel sent to hail him as the Messiah. Mark Donahue is certainly "Barrabarbaric" in tbs role, yet very likable. His enthusiastic delight at being led by the Messiah against the Roman occupation forces is the first century A.D. and thus blessed by God, brings to mind that unforgettable expression "the thrill of victory." "The agony of defeat" comes in the second scene when Judas (Barrabas' aide) brings news of Barrabas' capture and the slaughter of Zionist forces on the banks of the Jordan River. Jerry Finnegan as Judas projects a rat like image to this zealot who betrays Yeshu for the good of the cause. He is a striking contrast to Barry Cohen's angelic Stephen, disciple of Yeshu whom he calls the Messiah who "dies to live again." - . Audience not welcome Up until this point, the plot had been intriguing and the emotional values intense. However, there was a gap or barrier that made the viewer not really want to be there. The characters appeared so demanded privacy. they self-absorbed that Communication was so clear and straightforward that there were no conflicts or solutions to ponder. Roles were so cut and dried that there was no change or growth of character to look for. There was no moment of realization because we didn't know much more than they did. There was a moment of enlightenment for Yeshu in the end. However, though it was appreciable, it was not expected and thus not looked forward to. On the whole there are only three characters who really have a chance to develop: Yeshu, Stephen, and Pontius Pilate, who are the only ones to appear in more than one segment. Thus five of the eight characters can only show us one side of themselves. Stephen takes on added dimension in an unexpected show of strength of conviction after Yeshu's arrest. He persuades Yeshu of his Messianic mission and his glorious resurrection deomonstrating quite a change from his nonchalance in the beginning of the play. Gaiphas and Herod, played by Larry Turner and Charles Wisnet, were meant to be one-dimensional representations of the religious and political establishments, respectively. They may have been the most memorable characters in the production. Their scene with Yeshu in his cell was a refreshing change of pace from the intense melancholics of the early scenes. The lighting, comprised primarily of suggested an two beams directed at Yeshu, interrogation. The cat-and-mouse aspect of this scene was well appreciated. Depths of darkness The most attractive scenes were those that occurred in the dark light of the prison. Stephen and Yeshu meet here for the last time; Yeshu meets Annas there as well. The light source for their scene is the candle that Annas brings with him. Jack Hunter's portrayal of old tired Annas, former High Priest of Israel, ousted by the Romans for refusal to follow orders, was a welcome change from the insanity of the others. He seemed to have an inner wisdom that might change the predicable course of events. He was deep enough to demand looking into. It seems unjust that in this production, directed by Donald Sanders, Annas, Herod, and Caiphas are so intriguing while Yeshu is not. Neither is Pontius Pilate, despite an excellent job by Jim McGuire. Pilate is omniscient, witty, and intelligent. He is in obvious command of the situation. But who cares? Who goes to the Coliseum to root for the Lions over the Christians every weekend? Although Yeshu has his moment of dominance,-Pilate does win predicts as predicted. Everything goes exactly as he from scene to scene, with no real surprises. Thus we have a story with a noteworthy theme and message but little entertainment value; a production with some bright spots that occur in dark places; a set and lighting plot wherein all full light scenes have the houselights up, drawing your attention from the stage to the face of the person sittingiacross from you; and costumes that combine the 2®h century with the - 1st century but stereotype in characters by making a statement about their role to these, the drama. Thanks the political aspect of we also had people leaving the Courtyard (Pfeifer) Theatre last Friday night in varying stages of boredom. �Disco music will be in the spotlight this Sunday in Shea's Buffalo theatre.

At this point it was noted that the Valby played to a capacity house in Goodyear female sector of the audience was not storming the stage, walking out, or in any way protesting this Cafeteria last Saturday night. Drawn by the promise of 35 kegs of Molson's, blatant display of sexism. The first set closed with a classic dirty limerick: or perhaps lured by the opportunity to vent sexual There once was a man named Schwartz Whose cook was all covered with warts. But the girls would still play With his dick anyway, Cause good old Schwarts came in quarts. frustration, an estimated two thousand women and men crowded into the IRC sponsored event. Valby has a large following in Buffalo, owing to the fact that he was a regular act at the Red Balloon (now Jerry Korab's) all last year. He performs the piano background for the singing of some old favorite songs whose lyrics are rewritten with sexually explicit references ("Aj, Ai, Ai, Ai, your mother goes down for Egyptians"). When the self-professed filth monger took the stage, the packed house went wild. A few of the "hard core dirt fiends'' in the crowd immediately bellowed out requests for their particular favorites. Others in the first few rows began a chant of ''Take off your shirt." Dr. Dirty replied, "What's the matter with these guys? They want to see my tits." The mood was set; the lord of slime was rolling. Unfortunately, a piano pedal broke. However, all was not lost, as the audience had the opportunity to grab a few more beers and fire out a couple of their own greasy pearls. "Your mother eats batshit off cave walls." And when Valby was on his hands and knees fixing the pedal, "He's blowing the piano," was repeatedly heard from the audience. 8:00 and 10:00 pm The hysterically laughing mob was appalled by Valby's obvious insensitivity to the plight of oppressed women. The good doctor then took a break during which he peddled his record, Dirt, for five bucks a throw, autographing each one with a heartwarming personal message such as, “Steve, love is good; sex is better." By this time the floor was slick with beer (and God knows what else), making it exceedingly difficult to approach the kegs. However the students present in the cafeteria persevered. When Valby returned he was thoroughly warmed up. He shot verbal darts at Catholics, JAPs, and O.J. Simpson, and then went back to the subject of sex. "How many girls out there want to get laid tonight?" (Loud, high-pitched response) "Fuck Off!" "How many guys out there want to get laid tonight?" (Louder, lower response) "Fuck Off!" "How many guys out there, if they don't get laid, are going to beat off?" (Booming) "FUCK OFF!" "Is it possible that I've finally found an oasis of honesty in America?" Valby was rolling so he returned to his favorite whipping boy (girl), the reproached sex object, the woman, "Are there any women's libbers here?" (Very loud, high pitched response), "Let's do one for the women's libbers. If they can't take a joke, fuck' em." (Note: The author of this article wishes to point out that there is not actual empirical evidence of the presence of women at this show. It is entirely within the realm of possibility that the apparent females were, in fact, guys in drag using falsetto voices.) It was not time for politics.

If your special joy is Lina Wertmuller, your joy must surely be doubled, what with at least two (and as many as four) of her films available on local screens for the past month. Then Francois Truffaut's The Story of Adele H., with the luminous Isabelle Adjani, is brought back (courtesy of the Valu 5); it leads one of idealistic inclination to believe that Truffaut's new film.

(Ingmar Bergman's Face to Face, about which I went justifiably overboard last took a week and I retract not a comma of it year and was here for a week, and a pox on the Holiday Theatres for their inexcusable, — — green-grabbing haste.) I never expected to be presenting a South plaza Buffalo shopping as the new local standardbearer in these parts for quality cinema, but the aforementioned Valu 5 appears to have assumed that non-coveted role. And the last laugh is theirs, since they've been able to show major foreign films Consistently and, more surprisingly, successfully. Not just financially successful {in itself the alleged big reason why what local Screens have mostly stuck with, in Paule Kael's neatly turned phrase, "the film equivalent of junk food").

And the upheaval comes when Noiret realizes that the son he raised alone, being a widower is all but unknown to him. To share one's family with a stranger, and to realize that you have, is a powerful shock; it proves to bind Noiret with the local police chief (Jean Rochefort), and its force can be felt by every viewer. For merely not remolding Clockmaker into a sloganeering, didactic political soap-opera, Tavernier shows considerable maturity of judgment; for bringing the human aspect into such sharp focus, and concentrating his energy so effectively, he deserves to be counted among the most assured filmmakers "young" or otherwise.

Year Of The Cat. Over the past three or four years, Stewart's followers have been intrigued yvith his minstrel-like relaying of Victorian stories fused to folk-rock music. The songs centered on Stewart's fascination with history, transportation, cities, and prostitutes. Narrated in a haunting, spell binding fashion, songs like "Nostradamus" from Past, Present, and Future and the eighteen-minute title cut from Love Chronicles set Stewart to the mold of a free-wheeling educator or philosopher. The consummation of this strange musical fiction has given rise to cultists. But money is the crucial venture in the present, although cultists may vehemently deny this. However, it's true, and the catalyst for the commercial move is the mysterious, imaginative tale-teller, Alan Parsons. His production experience may be dibbed the "sound heard 'round the world." Parson's resume is long, his work meticulous, usually so over-produced that minor instruments employed get lost within the dark reaches of the speakers. When the sounds do emerge, they seem to choke the woofers and tweeters in sadistic fits so that flutes and strings sound like chalk screeching on an amplified blackboard. Parson's future may not be in total jeopardy, though because Year Of The Cat is produced quite well. This success is due to the fact that Stewart establishes a rapport with Parsons that is mutually productive. Conclusive differences between Year Of The Cat and albums up to Past, Present, and Future lie in the area of intrumentation. Whereas the guitar of Jimmy Page traded licks with Stewart's acoustic guitar in Love Chronicles, Year Of The Cat blends electric and acoustic guitars smoothly, using both solos and harmonies. A negative aspect of the album is also present. In earlier albums, instruments and vocals were mixed so that one would protagonistically hover over the other, thereby portraying Stewart's ethereal imagery. Year Of The Cat combines these two quantities equally ancLthis stifles some of Stewart's freedom. One other point that promotes commercial success is the song's length: most can be aired on AM stations since, only one song exceeds the time of five minutes. A few of the album's tunes are mediocre remakes of previous Stewart songs such ds "Lord Grenville" which reeks of its thematic predecessor, "Old Admirals." Most of the songs are poems, vividly displaying the singer's wit. Witness the sense of introversion forced to extroversion in "If It Doesn't Come Naturally, Leave It:" * album. Stewart delves into the meatphysical with essences of reincarnation in 'One Stage Before.' Having the best melody, production and lyrics, it is Year Of The Cat's finest cut: Some of you are'harmonies to all the notes / play Although we may not meet still you know me well While others talk in secret keys and transpose all say And nothing / do or try can get through the spell So one more time we'll dim the lights and ring the curtains up And play again like all the tunes before But far behind the music you can often hear the sounds Of laughter like the waves upon the shores Of infinity. / Sonny Fortune, Waves of Dreams (Horizon) "Seeing Beyond the Obvious" has Sonny Fortune on soprano-sax with a cutting trumpet used as an intro, followed by a soprano solo. Felxible Buster Williams feels the warmth of island breezes chasing his bass line. Drummer Chip Lyle's playing is linear and straightahead. "A Space in Time" has a touch of Wayne Shorter's influence (ri/liyako's). Williams seems tp unfold a Mad Hatter ' narrative characterisation inside his bass as he acts like the beleaugered chattering rabbit in fairyland. The last tune on the first side is "In Waves of Dreams," whose melody has a digital shift owing to its open ahd closed harmony. Williams slides down his mountain of wood (bass-violin). Miles Davis has atoned Fortune to micro-pitch: pneumatic preludes that rip covers from astral-melodic clouds. He is joined by Clifford Coulter who sends out wave impulsed on micro-moog/ARP Odessey Synthesizers. Micheal Cochrane lends thoughts of Chick Cbrea s "500 Miles High" intro. "Revelation" starts its aerial and angular separation with Fortune's flute responding spatially. Charles Sullivan's voice on flugelhorn is very healthy, with vitamen E flying out with regularity. Cochrane is not silent, but smooth ahd hem-like. "Thoughts" can be compared to the stbry of Alice in Wonderland. Here you will meet the vary humorous Cheshire Cat. It plays with your mind, do you mind? Fortune is the cat; Williams is a dream, with reality asking him for his thoughts. Cochrane and Lyle are the jesters, while Sullivan , plays trumpet as Alice played it. Throughout Waves of Dreams is a sense of a New Age of playfulness. The music reflects this feeling in a powerful way. Charles Haden, Closeness (Horizon) Haden's latest features some of jazz's greatest musicians. Ornette Coleman, Alice Coltrane, Keith Jarrett, and Pual Motian are all featured playing separate duets with Haden. "Ellen David" is classical chamber music made with the heart of Haden's wife Ellen. Haden is a lonely drifter on his bass, yet happy with motion. Jarrett has a winter soltice touch. Russian folkloric music with a glazed melodic image. This music has light quality that gives way to surrealism. "OC" alias Ornette Coleman, duets with Haden, They seem to be saying, "Come free me from this maze of life." Haden's solo is of a spatial wind and of urban context. If one understands environment, and its causes, music creates change. "For Turiya" has Coltrane and Haden dealing with celestial happiness, and that's all that is necessary. "For a Free Portugal" is highlighted by Paul Motian on drums. Haden is full of jungle laughter juxtaposed with panoramic melodrama and sadness, "Please leave this world." The music is based on mind and soul. The music asks, "How close are you?" Leroy Jones and Andrea Korklo Year Of The Cat is great to listen to while snuggling up with someone on bear-skin rug in front of the fireplace. You can hear the fire crackle and see the logs spark.

Mere I am again, another physics recitation. 1 take out my homework, which took all week to learn and solve. I feel confident that I know it, because I’ve spent so much time working on it. Others around me don’t look as well. They know', as I do, that coming here will be mental torture and futile. When you pay S375 for a one-year 8-ctedit course, you expect to be taught; you expect help; you expect them to explain facts so you can learn. Well I have learned one thing: don’t expect! I, like many others in the course, have been forced to learn physics on my own with no help. The lectures and recitations are a fascade, behind which lies an abyss of knowledge. Just because there is a body standing in front of the class, doesn’t mean knowledge is being transferred. Here he goes, starting to “explain” the lomework. Why don’t they hire T.A.Ls who can ipeak English! What’s he saying? That’s not right? le’s doing the problem wrong!! Look at everyone’s ace; some laughing, hiding their true feelings of lelplessness; others (and rightly so) look like they re over-confused and ready to scream. Everyone is ulking to the people around them, “Did you get this me? What’s number five? I got a different answer?!! Jo body is listing to the T.A.; all are trying esperately to snatch a small speck of knowledge 'hich might prove useful. I know the answer; “It’s 25 newtons,” I breamed. Everyone circles around me as I explain it has not taught anyone anything, b them. The T.A. ,nd therefore has slowly lost control of the class, rhe students run around like starving people looking or small bits of food. The T.A. has no food to offer; vhile some of us could explain it to others clearly. Now I’m in lecture. Half-awake, half-asleep, and oping I might pick up something of use in this class, thy do I kid myself? Who can I turn to? This isn’t ny better than the labs: all he’s doing is writing umbers and diagrams on the board. It could just as asily have been Egyptian hieroglyphics, as far as our nderstanding goes. We are human beings! Why on’t you talk to us instead of the wall. Look at that girl who’s sleeping; she's the tnartest one in here. She’s getting more out of the lass, less of a headache, and an hour of sleep! I tould have taken her advise and stayed in bed; etter yet the physics, department should wake up. 1 know I’m not the first, but I’d like to be the ist to go through this type of vacuum education, his letter was a desperate plea for help.

October 20, 1976 issue of The Spectrum, two articles appeared which were unduly biased and made some rather erroneous assertions. The first of these is an article by Rob Cohen entitled, “Nuclear Waste Still a Problem.” Among other things Mr. Cohen is critical of the role played by government in the financing of nuclear power recycling facilities. After stating that the total capital investment of all GKMSCO facilities would be 600-800 million dollars by 1984, Mr. Cohen cites the fact that if the facilities prove to be a successful venture then private industry would be permitted to operate the facilities. Mr. Cohen then quotes Marvin Resnikoff of NYP1RG who comments: “Government would be taking all the risks while business would reap all the benefits. Private industry won’t jump in unless the enterprise proves commercially feasible.” What Mr. Cohen fails to note is the fact that private industry is incapable of making such a large capital investment regardless of whether or not the venture is feasible. It is necessary for government to take the lead in developing nuclear power facilities and then allowing the private sector to gradually operate the facilities. 1 deem this a laudable act on the part of government and certainly not as pernicious as Mr. Cohen would like us to believe it is. If private industry can be given a guaranteed money-making operation with little financial risk, I see no reason why one should be critical. Is it not undeniably beneficial to have such an operation in the hands of private industry where growth is so badly needed? I see no reason to criticize a venture which is financed by government with the intent ot Debate 76 Nine O’clock I sit with peanuts And watch the debates. “I grow peanuts.” Fat juicy peanuts.

Mr. Cohen goes on to discuss the options which nuclear fuel Ford has regarding President reprocessing. In discussing the President’s option to support nuclear processing plants Mr. Cohen states that if the President decides to take this option he will “include a billion dollar appropriation for ERDA in the 1978-1979 Congressional budget request.” Mr. Cohen states in the same paragraph Green rancid peanuts. Peanuts are poison. They’re grown underground in dark bogs. The FDA comes to my living room And confiscates my peanuts. Down from my closets come peanuts. A pyramid of peanuts. Give me your poor. I'll give you my peanuts. Wheelbarrows full of peanuts. I bury them in a field. « Kleven o’clock I turn off the set And reflect on the blank screen Disgusted. 1 put away my peanuts. And go to bed.

What I object to here is the erroneous reporting of the facts which Mr. Cohen feels he is free to burden us with. 1 would like to know what constitute “inside sources” and if such “sources” exist how Mr. Cohen would have access to such information? Does he have a “hotline” to the White House? Clearly, this assertion is pernicious and completely unfounded. In the same issue of The Spectrum, Danny Parker writes'a Commentary on the New York State Senate race that is so laden with erroneous remarks and non sequiturs that one hardly knows where to begin a criticism. Mr. Parker points out that both Daniel Patrick Moynihan and James Buckley are more in agreement on foreign policy than domestic matters. Mr. Parker criticizes Buckley’s position advocating a hard line with the Soviet Union. He states, “How many other candidates call for a stepped up defense budget, and an increase in research and development of strategic bombers and Polaris missies?” If it is only Buckley who calls for an increased defense budget, why should we not hail him as a rational man instead of assailing him as Mr. Parker chooses to do. if Mr. Parker can be so free in criticizing Buckley’s position, he should also make his readers aware that two weeks ago Fred C. Ikle, director of the Arms Control and Disarmament Agency, stated that the Soviet Union now has in superiority intermediate-range ("regional”) nuclear weapons. Moreover, according to Ikle, “the Soviet Union is now embarked on new weapons programs which will further increase its superiority (Moscow is now in regional nuclear forces. introducing a brand new regional ballistic missle . | . I | | , i ' . . ' | , j | [ . : .. which has multiple independently targetable warheads (MIRVs).” The new missle which Mr. Ikle refers to is presumably the SS-20, which is configured so that it can be mobile (thus relatively immune to satellite observation) and can serve as an ICBM as well as a regional weapon. Meanwhile, SALT talks resume late this month. If Mr. Parker wishes to criticize Buckley I would like to see him present hath sides of the picture. Can he be so foolish as to assume that Buckley adopts positions such as this without any reflection on the matter? I will cite only one erroneous statement Mr. Parker makes concerning Mr. Moynihan. Mr. Parker claims to be a states that Mr. Moynihan liberal-democrat though he “opposes abortion, supports parochial school aid, opposes further gun control, and knows nothing about crime and prison reform." Firstly, is every Democrat for abortion? Clearly not as Mr. Carter has indicated. Does Mr. Parker wish to say that Mr. Moynihan, a professor at Harvard knows nothing about crime and prison reform? Mr. Parker, you must be joking! Where are your facts to back up such a wild claim? Do you always make such ridiculous remarks? In the future I would like to see The Spectrum take greater care in editing the articles which appear in the paper. This type of shoddy journalism should not be allowed to be printed. If people are going to make assertions they should, at the very least, back up those assertions with fact. Dennis M. Patterson Friday, 29 October 1976 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen j | ; ' • , 1 i ( �Returnable bottles proposal pen To the Editor. I am writing in response to the article that appeared in the 10/22 i§sue of The Spectrum entitled, “1RCB Balks at NYPIRG’s Returnable Bottle Proposal.” As director of Operators for IRCB, 1 would like to clarify several aspects of this story. It is true that IRCB has presented opposition to the NYPIRG proposal. However, it is completely false that we are not responsive to student needs. The selection of canned soda that is sold in IRCB stores has been developed in response to requests and suggestions on the part of our customers. Furthermore, to date, IRCB has not received any written or verbal requests from our customers to convert to a returnable bottle program. Several by David J. Rubin * have been contacted, and IRCB was informed that we would be unable to receive the variety that is now available in cans if returnable bottles were requested. To do so would be to ignore the wants and desires of our customers. Implicit in the article was the suggestion that IRCB has not made a determined effort to find possible ways to accommodate a returnable bottle program. One of the major reasons behind our opposition to the proposal was the fact that we do not have the needed storage space. It was reported by The Spectrum that several spokesmen from Housing, Facilities Planning and FSA were not aware of any formal requests for storage spsce for bottles. To begin, Housing and FSA have no say over the allocation of storage space for IRCBl This can Only be done through Facilities Planning. Approximately one year ago, Mr. Jack Telfer denied in writing a request by IRCB for additional space. Further, at an FSA Board of Directors meeting, I inquired of Mr. Edward Doty, vice president for Finance and Management, as to whether there was any available space. His reply was negative. Edward Bush of Custodial Services has informed me that there was no storage space at all in Ellicott. I was told this when inquiring about other matters previous to the bottle proposal. Mr. Bush also told The Spectrum this fact. Thus the question of storage had been vendors explored to the highest authority possible. Mr. Len Snyder of FSA was also aware of the fact that IRCB could not receive the needed space. In fact, there were several discussions held between IRCB, Mr. Snyder and NYPIRG concerning the bottle issue. Upon our request FSA inquired of Maintenance their feelings on the matter. The was unfavorable and cited the increased bottles as potentially dangerous and as likely to increase the litter problem on campus. The glass program in Wilkeson Quad in Ellicott is‘proof of these contentions. It was also asserted that FSA is going to institute a returnable program “wherever possible.” In reality FSA is conducting a controlled experiment in the Rathskellar. Moreover, FSA’s vending machines will not be converted to bottles, and this is the largest part of canned soda sales that FSA conducts. NYPIRG representatives have been informed in the past of the difficulties that IRCB faces in accepting such a system. Though they said they would investigate and report to IRCB, it was never done. To the charges that IRCB is run too much like a business, all I can say is that I am proud that it is. The management of IRCB certainly would not want to run a haphazard organization that could not meet the needs of its customers, the dorm students. There has been a lot of talk this semester about groups of students fighting for their rights. Graduate students have been waging constant war for more pay and better working conditions. The BSU and other minority groups have recently accused UUAB of racism and of unfairly cutting funds from their budget. These causes and others like them have received significant publicity in The Spectrum and many groups at least have the communication lines open for a possible settlement. Although solutions are hard to come by, at least these groups have fighting changes to make their demands come about But there is one group on campus which has been forced to exist under the most adverse conditions for years. They try and try, year in and year out, to air their demands, but even The Spectrum has shunned their case until now. Freedom and Independence for Dog Orphans (FIDO) boasts a membership of nearly all of the estimated 275 dogs that roam the campus, live in off-campus housing, and work for the people in Farber (nee Capen) Hall. Among the major grievences of FIDO are: poor hydrant facilities, discrimination by professors, starvation wages for services rendered, and general abuse. R.T.T. Bowser, president of FIDO, said that with double digit inflation (Gainesburgers are up S4.50 a pound)'and heavy unemployment, the dog situation on campus is truly a matter of life and death. “Every day dogs are being coerced by medical students to take a “vacation” in Farber Hall,” said Bowser. “They promise us free room, three squares a day and a warm place to lift our leg. These days, that sounds like a great deal. So some of us go. Then we find out about this “vacation.” First they inject us with cancer and then they give us Laetrile and hang around to see what happens.” Bowser’s associate, Thaddeus “Snoppy” Brown — told a similar tale. An Irishsetter friend of mine went on one of these vacations and came out so drugged and messed up, the first thing he did was mount a sawhorse.” But the Father Follies, as they are known by the bulk of the canine constituency on campus, are just one of FIDO’s problems. “38 percent of all professors will not teach dogs,” claimed Bowser. “I know one french poodle who had to wait an extra year to get her degree because the chairman of the French Department said her pronuniciation ‘wasn’t up to university standards.’ This was clearly a case of discrimination because the poodle was brought up in Montreal,” he said. Bowser explained some professors (and there is list of their names) actually throw dogs out of their a classes and many others schedule tests on Fala’s Birthday. Some dogs have become so irate that they have actually bitten these professors, but the professors are so hard hearted that the bites can’t break the skin. Snoppy Brown said that the hydrant problem had become very serious because of the 88 percent increase in, enrollment over the last two yyars. “If you don’t get here at eight in the morning, there’s no way you’ll get a hydrant without waiting at least half an hour,” he said. Brown explained at least fiye new hydrants were imperative immediately, and another 12 will be needed to serve incoming freshhounds at the Amherst Campus. But Bowser said the real problem facing FIDO is the way dogs are taken for granted at this University. He said that while everyyody comes over to feed and play with the dogs on the nice sunny days, when it gets cold and dark in January and February, all of the humans disappear leaving the dogs flat. “We must have interaction between dog and human,” said Bowser. “I have asked SA time and time again to set up workshops to improve dog-human relations on campus, but all they ever say in reply is ‘fetch.’ Yo’d think they believe we couldn’t talk or something.” reaction presfence of For the employees of IRCB, Inc Brad Koshar Director of Operations.

Justice to these men demands their immediate return. (2) As modest as are the Defense budget cuts advocated by Governor Carter, still they offer some hope for reordering of priorities. Contrast this with the continued insanity of Ford’s ever increasing “defense” costs.

If students could see beyond the ends of their noses, they’d show some interest and concern about this affair and what it represents for our collective future. As for The Spectrum it should start printing the whole story rather than occasional chunks if it wants to merit the name newspaper.

The Spectrum For Jimmy Carter There is a Big Question-Mark concerning whether or not the State of Israel, and the Jewish Commonwealth will continue to Survive. To survive depends on many ifs. If they maintain their will to survive as being Jews, if they continue to fashion new tools for survival in response to New Challenges, and if the whole community continues to be a constant factor in History, then the Jewish Commonwealth will continue to survive as a Cultural-Civilized People. But the will to survive, and the ability to respond to challenges will not be enough without a permanent commitment of time. Especially from the University sector where the augmentation of new ideas to fashion new tools for survival must be developed. The time factor especially in days like these are most important. It is especially important that the Jewish Academic Public is made aware of this, and the questions that must be resolved for they are the challenges. Has the Jewish Drama ended, or has there only been an intermission? Has the thesis of a Jewish Destiny turned to bind the Jewish people together as a unified nation through Zionism? Or is the dark gloomy blood trenched curtain of past history is about to fall on this Nation or Peoplehood? Where are the tools needed to insure Survival? They are in you. Should the Nation or Peoplehood stand by and do nothing? No! Should the Nation or Peoplehood stand by and lose the advantage of time? It is now up to you. History is a two-way road for the Jewish people to take one is to retreat into annihilation, and the other is to advance so that the final peace will he achieved. If there is an advance it will only come through your commitments of time and skills. If this is done, then in the words of Issiah there will be “Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near.” But it is up to us all to insure this quality of peace. Remember never a retreat Shalom, Israel Ben Zion �Volleyball New tactic rejuvenates team After a disappointing trip to the Brock University Tournament on Saturday, where Bulls lost all three of their matches, they sprung back to life on Monday with a win over Geneseo State at Clark Hall and a shutout at Oswego Tuesday, to bring their record to 9-7. Coach Peter Weinreich continued using the one-setter offense, alternating two players at that spot, and was “quite pleased” with this strategy. Geneseo led in the opening minutes of the first game, but after Buffalo took the lead, the was never in doubt. game Freshman setter Amy Ostrin did a great job, while Hilary Schlesinger and Barbara Staebell were there to spike Ostrin’s sets. Barb Fislar supplied the serves, and Sue Trabert made the blocks on defense as the Balls won easily, 15-8. Sue Pels was Buffalo’s setter in the second game, as they scored eight points before C.eneseo knew what happened. Pels contributed with both sets and serves, while Schlesinger and Mary Hvanco were the spikers in the early Geneseo regrouped its forees for a four point rally, but the Bulls were right behind with four quick points of their own. Freshman Dana Chadwick supplied the defense, and Evanco and Pels continued their fine work on offense to give the Bulls their second win of the day, 1 5-10. Geneseo wins one nothing However, is ever perfect, and the third game proved that this night was no exception for the Bulls. Buffalo’s defense failed them entirely, and the Knights won 15-6. The game started out slowly, and five players served before a point was scored, but after the Bulls scored three points, Genesed erupted for eleven quick points. It was too much of a lead to overcome, and Buffalo fell, 15-6. “We had trouble'receiving serves, and they got too much of a lead," explained Weinreich. “We got nervous then, and didn’t play a smart game.” After that, the Bulls regained Candidates psychiatric center as a work/study “training ground” tor aspiring further Hoyt criminologists. stated that there was absolutely this no connection between proposal and the halfway house is that controversy raging in his district: currently interview with The In Spectrum earlier this month.

Buffalo scored the first eleven points of the game on Ostrin’s and Staebell’s serves and Schlesinger’s spikes and blocks. Staebell and Judi Bardak made some fine defensive spikes to hold back Geneseo, and allow the Bulls to win, 1 5-3. Weinreich was quite happy about the win, and cited Ostrin and Staebell as the best players of the night. He also said that the line-up finally is set, and he plans keep to substitutions at a minimum.

A distprtion like this undoubtedly stemmed from Mobius’ support of my Mr. opponent Joseph DiVincenzo, whose tactics become clumsier as the election draws closer." Unfortunately. DiVincenzo was not present at the forum to comment. DiVicen/o was an administrator of the Buffalo I’o'lic force in the late 1960s and earl\ 1970s involved in this University s turmoil at the time.

The present pay scale is S4.60 an hour for part-time workers, and up to $7 an hour for most full timers. This is the essential point. This massive pay differential is behind the company’s drive to replace all full timers, including drivers, with part-time workers. The end result would be savings into the tens of millions. The union response to this company measure is to ‘demand’ that part timers receive pay and benefits- equal to that of full timers. According to UPSurge. however, the union is paying mere lip service to member feelings on this point. In fact, they claim, the union has already settled the- pay issue with the company; The alleged agreement involves an -continued from page 7- by unfettered membership, negotiate. militant a with whom to The entire issue, according to the New York Times, is what UPS “featherbedding.” No calls specifics or substantiation of this charge, which union members characterize as slander, have yet to be offered by the company. Union persons feel, instead, that the term was used to dress up a company demand they see as a ' plain attempt at “wage busting.” Minor but crucial There are other on the bargaining table, however.

First, it seems to be accepted in union circles that UPS has a serious genuinely opened offensive against the Teamsters regarding the part-time dispute. Company determination to finally win this issue is considered high. Second, Christmas business is a nlajor part of the billion dollar UPS annual revenue. With the strike prolonged this far, UPS training of extra manpower, as well as general organizational preparations have been delayed too long, and the company would hope is to prechule any handling goods by requesting destination union handlers, to refuse work with the scab rigs. of scab Some members of the local are also planning a radio show that may provide us all with more information on the strike.

Speech and Debate Society announces a SPEECH TOURNAMENT October 31st, from 1 6 pm - in Norton Union Cheryl McNerncy As we started writing our first column, we found ourselves faced witf year,, we were the editor and associate editor respectively, of the now defunct Commuter Comment, and -going from tour pages a month to one column bi-weekly was discouraging. In fact, our wholeexperience with the Commuter Comment was discouraging. The paper wa: brought out late in the academic year; we had only two issues, and we didn' have the time to upgrade the quality of the paper. We looked forward to thi cortcenlraling more or year and the chance to make the paper bettor commuter issues, the Amherst Campus, and events happening in the Buffalo ancelled” because we seemed to be good a area. But the newspaper was something criticizing the SA government. We criticized certain officer-holders; we were so presumptions as to ask them to carry out their campaign promise to support the Commuter Counsel and its goals. We opposed the idiotic student strike of last spring because we felt it would accomplish nothing (and we were ight). For our abrasive views, we were giver the ax. We were eventually given this column, bo much for the Firs Amendment, and so much for commuters getting their fair share of their $f (This column, by the way, is paid for by mandatory student fees, and The conflicting emotions. Last r Spectrum treats this column like advertising.) Believe it or not, we don’t want to open old wounds and we now have tc be careful about criticizing the student government. We were recently elected as at-large senators. We are now partly responsible for what happens in SA. We plan to use this column in various ways. We'll write and comment on commuter problems, discuss things happening with SA and try to keep commuters aware ol the council's activities. We’ll also try to amuse you by writing humorous columns (at least we.think they're humorous. We think we’re hilarious, but not everyone,agrees, surprisingly.). Some people have legitimately asked why commuters need a newspaper of their own when there is The Spectrum. The answer is simply that The Spectrum rarely gives coverage to commuter problems. The editor-in-chief is usually from New York City (the last two years from Queens), and can't relate to our problems. By this, we don't mean to criticize Richard Korman, who’s been extremely receptive to our requests (about a month ago we received a second page advance story about' the various events of a mini Commuter Day we sponsored). We think he can be trusted to do the right thing. In contrast to Richie, however, was Amy Duncan. Amy was a real sweetheart. At the beginning of the last year, we started to talk to her about some of the things The Spectrum had done the year before. The most disturbing of these was Mike O'Neill's story. O’Neill (from NYC) wason The Spectrum staff, and after one Braves-Knicks game (guess who had won), he wrote a story dripping with venom. He attacked the Buffalo fans, questioning their intelligence, and comparing them to ape-like animals. It was a complete sour grapes story. We asked Amy if -she would allow such articles again. Alter waiting three weeks for an appointment (now we know the editor is a very busy person, but llfree weeks!), she seemed annoyed by our presence (or perhaps our. existence), and the most we got was a promise for no more O'Neill articles. Well, Amy kept her promise. She totally ignored us. She spent her time on issues such as the student strike, Lockwood stairs, and editorials on the myths of Lesbianism. Our point, therefore, is direct. We simply can not rely on people who have no use for, nor interest in, us. We need a newspaper devoted to commuter problems and interests. There's no way to force The Spectrum to be receptive to us, and we’re not about to abuse the Tirst Amendment by telling them what to print Did you know that the Commuter Council provide!) the following.services? activities such as breakfasts, dances, and coffeehouses. �the newly built Commute/ Ride Board; made for the purpose of starling car pools to help commuters save money (located on the second floor of Norton across from Gallery 219) �reduced fare bus tokens.

Smith has called for the resignation of Paul Reitan, Provost of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, charging that Reitan changed the grades of two of Smith's students without his prior knowledge. Smith discovered the grade changes by chance in April of 1975. One of the changes was that of a C to an A, while the other was a U switched to an S. Smith obtained photocopies of the Request for Change of Grade forms and found that the space designated for the signature of a faculty member was blank. Charles Ebert, Dean of Undergraduate Educatin, and Reitan had signed in their appropriate places. Underneath his own signature. Ebert had written “I agree with Dr. Reitan’s decision,” and signed once more. Smith claimed that he was not permitted to see a letter describing the reason for the changes. Reitan claimed he was convinced the only way justice would be served would be to correct the students'grades. He said that he did not meet with the students but made his decision after careful examination of all the written material involved in the case. Reitan said that given an identical case he would make the same decision. He denied any ulterior motives, describing that his actions were in the interest of serving justice. Grievance filed One of the students involved, who wishes to remain anonymous, said that a grievance was originally filed with Smith. After Smith decided not to change the grade, a second request was filed with the Biology Grievance Committee The student reported that the members of the committee were personal friends of Smith, and claimed he had seen them together in a friendly manner. The grievance hearing was held and the request for a change was denied. The student said that the reasons stated for denial were in no way connected with the grievance. He said that Smith wa£ supposed to attend the hearing but failed to do so. In spite of the harsh feelings that this student has concerning his grades, lie has praise for Smith. “Smith is probably the best lecturer in this University," he claimed, “and deserves a best teacher award." The student feels it is impossible that Smith was not made aware of the change due to the fact that he is on the mailing list of the Biology Department. The student criticized Smith's grading policy, which combined average scores of different laboratory classes. This system caused come scores to changes by 30—40 points either way as a result. Director of Admissions and Records Richard Dremus explained that the most common procedure in the event of a change of grade request is for the instructor to fill out the forms and notify the proper authorities. If a student's request for a change of grade is denied instructor, the department chairman or the provost the by can sign the request but. in all- cases, it must be counter-signed by the Dean of Undergraduate Education. Dremuk said that it is more common for the department chairman to sign than the provost. Smith came in conflict with members of the Biology Department in tiie fall of 1974. In 1970 Carl Cans, former Biology Department Chairman, was moving around the f - C.E. Smith offices of the Biology professors for no apparent reason. In the confusion Cans forgot to assign Smith an office. For three years Smith held office hours in the Rathskellar. In September. 1974, former Provost George Nancollas forbade Smith to hold office hours in the Rathskellar, saying that it was undignified for a professor to help students in a cafeteria. Nancollas had offered Smith a new office the previous year, but Smith turned it down. The Provost warned Smith not to discuss the matter, especially not with the press. But Smith did discuss the matter with The Spectrum in October. Charges of racism Minority organizations launch boycott of UUAB the' mostly all white student associations have clashed consistently on this and other SUNY campuses in recent years over the size of minority student allocations, and control of programming. George Thomas of the Third World Vets said that while the Veterans Association received S3000, the Third World Veterans only received Si 000, after an initial allocation of protesting S550. Guity said ‘‘1 am not going to any more meetings, 1 am not Liny to make more going suggestions. I am just trying to get what is ours.” UUAB Division Director Jett Lessoff took the podium and said UUAB not only desired minority student opinion, but that it was sought. by Charles Greenberg Campus editor An immediate boycott by minority students of all University Union Activities Board (UUAB) programming has been called by Student Association Minority Affairs Coordinator Ed Guity. The boycott was called to protest the termination of UUab's line, minority programming PODER, of the representatives Black Student Union (BSU) and minority student affairs said in a stormy meeting Monday in Haas Lounge. The minority line in the UUAB concert committee was dropped in a vote by the Sub Board board budget directors during of hearings in August. Last year allocated for $10,000 was minority programming, of which S8000 was expended. UUAB is a of Sub Board division which distributes corporation 350,000 in student activity about board of directors is fees. Its members of the six composed of student governments. Guity charged at the meeting that minority students had been ripped off for years and that their funds had gone to support UUAB and SA activities of little interest to minority students. Guity pointed out that there are no black representatives on Sub Board and that there is only one black official in UUAB. Guity said the boycott had the of community support like Push Operation organizations and NAACP. The first part of the boycott will be the picketing of the U U A B-sponsored Norman Conners concert Sunday night at Shea’s Buffalo Theater Minority students from BSD and PODER cited racism and indifference to the interests of students as the minority behind the dropped motivation UUAB line.

FROM UB) T V �NWO officials appeal to SA for a budget review by R ‘Gilbert Staff Writer Spectrum Rich Bronson and Harold Meyrowitz. contend that last year “certain individuals” in CAC had decided privately, using personal political criteria, that NWO was to a whole, still feels that at least some of the cut was made with them in mind. “With (former CAC treasurer) Mark Silverman chairing some of those Finance Committee meetings, and the known fact that he didn’t like us, we're sure Mark, and some other CAC people who agreed with him, accepted as big a cut as they did because they politically disagreed with us, and thought we should be cut.” . The controversy over funding for the New World Orchestra (NWO) continued this week,. Unable to receive money from the Community' Action Corps (CAC), sponsoring organization, NWO’s the newspaper is appealing to officials in the Student Association (SA) and Sub Board for a review, and an investigation into alleged unethical actions which may have played a major role in eliminating the paper’s funding. approximately Published six times during the last academic year, NWO circulated ten thousand copies per issue, which were distributed both on campus It throughout the community. and published here for about two years. In a meeting with SA’s Finance Committee, Thursday, three members of the NWO collective presented their case for the S4400 the paper is requesting to publish six issues through next May. At the conclusion of the hearing, the committee, apparently accepting many of the NWO contentions, passed the following motion: “Due to questionable practices of NWO’s sponsoring organizations, we, the members of the Finance Committee, recommend that Sub Board/Financial Assembly review, with all deliberate speed, New World Orchestra’s application for funding as a university publication,” The three NWO persons, Paul Levitt. be cut. Nine thousand cut Bronson detailed what he said was the process by which NWO was eliminated, and how informed of the they were termination. “They (CAC) did not fight for us in the budget hearings last year . . and accepted a Sd.OOO cut in their budget.” “We weren’t told until September 18th that we would be cut two days before the CAC budget was to be decided on,” Meyrowitz said. “And (Social Action Projects coordinator) Sandy (Greer) told us that there was no chance of being funded for more than S250. Since they said it was hopeless, we didn’t even submit a budget." NWO funding for last year was more than . - S4Q00. Some support for the NWO position was to be found in an examination of the CAC budget. The organization was appropriated S20.000 this year, as opposed to S2 l>.000 a S9.000 cut. CAC director Drew Mendoza explained that this cut was not accepted with NWO in mind. “Our insurance costs for our vans have really jumped this year, plus a raise for our secretary, and general inflation, it was a massive cut. No way we in (’AC last - wanted it. But NWO, careful to distinguish the actions of ‘certain individuals' from CAC as ‘We could take a cut' Present CAC treasurer Michael Price, in an interview, countered that CAC had submitted a S33.000 budget last year, but still received a cut. Supporting NWO beliefs. Price said, as one of Silverman’s ‘good friends,’ that “Mark was politically fairly conservative, but that was purely a personal thing.’ He also agreed tha Silverman, although he was often acting chairman of the Finance Committee, had not fought actively for a larger CAC ’ budget. “Yes, he thought we could take a cut, he felt it would pull us together here at CAC.” he stated. Asked if Silverman’s political philosophy would lead him to consider NWO expendable. Price declared that it would not have. Several sources both in SA and CAC, however, felt that Silverman would, in fact, have acted on his negative political opinion of the New World Orchestra. w ■ Finance Committee Chairman and SA Treasurer Steve Blumberg lent some support to the paper at the Thursday meeting with NWO, citing his knowledge of Silverman’s ‘amazing’ lack of opposition to such a low CAC budget. He also stated that “it seems like some kind of conspiracy may have been going on” after NWO presented its case. 'Coming from such a high SA official stated Bronson think that's significant.” Blumberg also pointed out that since the paper was not informed by CAC that it was likely they would be cut, NWO missed the important chance of appearing before the Sub Board publications hearings held at the end of the summer. In a change of student government this year, publications are more propeHy to be funded through Sub Board rather than through SA. No members felt that the timing of the announcement that they could not get funds was perhaps designed to deny them an appearance at the Sub Board publications hearing. GAC official Bob Bertone denies this saying. “We were having so much hassle we just making it through the summer don’t (sic) even consider the new year’s budget until September.” NWO persons contend that they were preparing to submit a budget as usual when they began to hear rumors that they might be funded this year. “We had to go to them to find out about it," stated Paul Levitt of NWO. The Finance Committee on Thursday gave some credence to the NWO argument, but avoided action on the NWO funding Instead, $4,000 seeing a request. ... appropriation as too large for the mere ten-person body, the committee referred the problem to the larger and more powerful Financial ' Assembly or Sub Board, whoever will claim jurisdiction.

Page three �SASU wants to raise your consciousness this week year’s presidential candidates was one of the main projects tackled by SASU this semester. Responses by the candidates to a by Paulette Buraczenski Spectrum Student Staff Writer Association of State the University (SASU) is sponsoring a National Day of Student Activism, designed to student awareness about issues promote important to the State University (SUNY) community in this election year. The event, which will be held during the week of October 24-31, will include such major topics as voter education, and a “general emphasis on student consciousness,” according to Student Association of the State University (SASU) Executive Vice President Diane Piche. The creation of a statewide newspaper vital information about this containing questionnaire concerning student issues and ratings of incumbents’ past records will be printed ih this paper, which will be distributed by Student Association (SA) beginning Monday. Ratings are based on higher education legislation and range from a low of 26 percent by Congressman Jack Kemp to a high of 100 percent by several members of the State Assembly. The program at this University includes a debate between area candidates for the State Senate and the State Assembly (tonight at 8 p.m. in Haas Lounge), a talk by Ken Braun, opponent of incumbent Mike Amico for Erie County Sheriff of education-oriented candidates. “It is very important for students to consider the information contained in the guide,” she explained, “because this is a critical year for SUNY with respect to budgeting. candidates’ Unless students vote for sympathetic public higher education, SUNY will further suffer.” SA President Steve Schwartz echoed Bittner’s feelings, noting. “Last year upset about cutbacks. everyone got Students can fight back this year by f The law also calls for minutes to be taken at all such meetihgs. which must be made public within 24 hours in accordance with the freedom of information law which has bean in effect for a number of r years. Overwhelmingly approved An aid to Assemblyman Mark Siegel, a co-sponsor of the bill, asserted that such a law was necessary because people realize that “government working behind closed doors, doesn’t work in the best interest of the public.” He said the need for this bill was magnified by the events leading up to as well as the events following Watergate. The bill was originally introduced in 1975. It was passed in the Assembly by a margin of 86 to 42, but was defeated in the Senate. This year the measure was overwhelmingly approved in the Assembly by a vote of 137 to 4, and then passed by a substantial margin in the Senate, with the help of Common Cause, an influential lobby. Under the provisions of the law, any revisions, laws or resolutions obtained through closed door meetings will be declared void. It is hoped that the Sunshine Law will be an instrumental tool in informing the public about the concerns of their state government. Halloween Party ? Prizes for the best costumes.

Sensory overload, a by-product of the age of technology, was brought forward to those present at each of the six shows as a very real and, judging by the few displays of nervous laughter, unsettling experience. Opening with a droning vocal track which soon gave way to an East Indian chant, two black-and-white television monitors realyed an out of focus image, while abstract slides of various color patterns and combinations added to the impression of experiencing the beginning of time. The monitors cut to shots of canyons, a flock of birds, and people gathered together in a communal celebration, bringing to mind a time when the senses responded to nature, not technology, as a stimulus. Ruined rhyme Nature was eclipsed, however, by the simultaneous projection of two movie clips, which environmental creators Steven Keeler, Steven Panyioto, Thomas Halstead and Stephen Parr see as the condition of man in the Piscean age. One movie clip brings us junk food, fast food, frozen food. We see city filth and overcrowding. The other film clip shows the solitude of a hitch-hiker who watches car after car goes by without stopping. Two TV monitor's flashed the phrases as Rhyme,” “Ruined and “Call This Withered,” and spelled out a warning that “Earth Will Surely Fall.” Television, medium of media, is here. We see them on, we see them off. They are indoors. And outdoors; and when the clip of a TV coffee commercial froze in mid-movement, the transformation to the new age, the Aquarian age, began. Electronic music of Eno, Gong, Terry Riley and Curved Air wailed cars, trains, and planes, previously shown in motion, became frozen slides. On the monitors, laser induced video feedback burst forth, receded, and mysteriously demerged. Atrophied From the distance came a pounding noise, which became louder and closer. Polarized slides showed people and places as unreal, sterile. A movie clip brought the movement of a man, surrounded by fence, who sought escape. The video images continued to explode across the screen. The music stops, to be replaced by an eerie, haunting vocal track. “We are all here, swimming in the sea of possibility,” a voice calls to us. It repeats; “WE are all here . .” and repeats louder each time. A red circle appears on a beige wall. A silver hatted creature appears. Masked in a foil smile, he pronounces: “We are all here; L»i atrophied in the sea of possibility. Is Earth a trophy?” The monitors replace the silver messenger with three words; “Black Age over. Soft music "and the opening video image fade in. “That was Earth Atrophy, thank you for coming.” Past.” After Video Committee Chairman Steven Keeler commented, “We’ve created something here, greater than a sum of parts. We overload the senses the way real Gerald Sternesky life does.” We have arrived. Aquarius is here. Birds . chirp, rock guitars sound the celebration, and a ray of light searches the corners of the monitors. A guiding light? Then it was Viking project probes Red Planet’s mysteries by Rob Cohen Campus Editor For three months now a flood of data photographs and confusion have been streaming million miles of across 40 interplanetary space from two scientific outposts sitting on the forboding surface of Mars.

Klein has taught at the University of Michigan and Oxford, and is currently at the University of Pennsylvania, where he is the Benjamin Franklin Professor of Economics. He is considered one of the leading authorities on the use of econometric models in the forecasting of macroeconomic policy, and is responsible for the operations of the Wharton Schools macroeconomic model, which is the foremost econometric model in the country. Klein, in an article appearing in the Wall Street Journal of June H, stressed that he considers himself and the others on Carter's advisory committee to be little more than technicians, stating, “We share his aims and we are trying to devise practical ways to achieve them." At the moment, his biggest project is something called LINK, an econometric model of the world. His full-time involvement in this area has lead him to dispel any rumors of his accepting a full-time Washington job if Carter wins the election. Your Gold College Ring i t \ �Show cause obtained against SUNY Board Keystone Cops? 1 A show cause order against the State University (SUNY I Board of Trustees' meeting held yesterday afternoon was obtained Monday night by Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz and Legal Services Director David Bfownstein, when the Trustees initially refused to seal Student Association to the Stale University (SASUf I xecutive Vice President Diane Pittite as a proxy for President I rank Jackalone. .Jackalone is currently recovering from a severely sprained back, after he collapsed last week addressing students at the Stale University College at Delhi. Despite their initial refusal, the I rustees did allow Picho to attend the meeting, when she arrived with the show cause order in hand. SASU officials say they are not sure whether or not the I rustees were aware the order had been obtained, and thus cannot say whether or not it influenced their change of heart. Schwartz speculated that the Trustees had been informed of the order by Albany government officials, and were willing to fight the matter in court. It's just another typical case of the I rustees violating the spirit id the law Schwartz, commented. Jackalone is the only student representative to the Board, which makes policy decisions lor all 27 SUNY campuses. According to a hill approved by the State Legislature two years ago. the president is automatically given a seat on the Board, I he I rustees strenuously fought passage of the legislation. I he student representative has all the priviledges of the other members except the power to vole. following the Trustees’ refusal to allow I’iche to attend the meeting, SASU staff called numerous member schools and urged them to send telegrams to Board Chairperson Mrs. Maurice Moore protesting the decision. It was speculated that this may have inlluenced the reversal, also. Revised Regents plan (SASU News) The perceived anti-public higher education bias in the Regents second plan for the future of New York's post secondare education equals that of the first draft, calling for increased a id to the state’s private colleges. The Regents' recommendation that tuition rates support one-third the cost of undergraduate education is retained, though the percentage graduate students should pay is reduced from one-hall to 40 percent. SASU estimates the amount undergraduates currently support with recently increased tuition costs to be H percent. Tuition increases are directly related to declining enrollment, as evidenced by the dramatic 17 percent drop in Cil\ Urtiversity enrollment following imposition of tuition there this year. I he Regents plan, in addition to recommending increased tuition in the .stale s public schools, applauds recent increases in SUNV medical schools favoring In disapproving the University's recommendations completion of some SUNN construction projects, the Regents report , . any furhter construction will increase the debt service burden says create new pressures for increased tuition, especially through and increased levels of tuition, thereby restricting access.' This particular phrase did not appear in the Regent s si drall. creating a sharp inconsistency of stating increased and open access ava goal while calling for vastly restricted access.

We hope WBFO will continue to be shows once again that personal political considerations in a valuable instrument b,y which important issues can determining the fate of a publication, and in judging the be aired. Thanks also for promoting me to “station newspaper's editorial policy will always exist, especially in manager” 1 will, however, be forded to decline the the area of funding unless there are determined efforts to correct the situation. An example of such practices may have surraced in the treatment of NWO. As explained in an article this issue, the political opinoins of former CAC officials could very likely have influenced their decision to accept the budget cut they To the Editor. received this year. The NWO contention is that a prior I admire The Spectrum because it is published decision that it was "expendable" may have led to CAC's thrice weekly, a feat 1 realize is very difficult for any acceptance of less money this year. We believe that this is a student newspaper. But the intent of this letter is situation which needs the review called for by the SA not to praise The Spectrum but to question music Finance Committee, and hope NWO will receive special staff writer Tim Switala’s Billy Joel review.

It is, to say the least, shabby journalism. Simply To solve the issue of government interference, changes because it is not true and only serves as a cheap way must be made in the student government's financial power over publications. We have previously written that we would like to see a more impartial and independent body created, which will investigate the needs of campus media, and allocate funds accordingly.

Hunt Director of Jazz Programming WBFO — — Generalizations to associate concert readers of The Spectrum with the Joel Tickets, for the concert, were available not only at Norton Union but all over western New York. I drove from Brockport to see The Entertainer and I know of others who traveled further. Granted there was a good many SUNY at Buffalo students who did attend but in no way did they make up a majority of the patrons. All I ask is that you report the news responsibly and avoid making false generalizations. I would like to add I enjoyed the rest of the review and your fine newspaper. Hamilton Ward V Editor-in-Chief of the Stylus Student Press at Brockport Peace through macho — remedy. Responding to a need for more specifics than were presented in our editorial last week, we propose the creation of an independent Media Allocations Committee. The board ; could be composed, in approximate thirds, of student government members, representatives of the different campus media, and concerned faculty and student body members, perhaps as follows: a 10-person body with three Sub Board, SA, or student judiciary persons; three media persons; and four at-large undergraduates, graduates and faculty members, proportionally. The independence of this committee would be guaranteed through elections, and more importantly, in having an independent financial existence. This means that the proposed committee must have claim to a set percentage of those monies, or any set method for determining the amount of funds available for media in a given year. In any case, something must be done. It is up to the student body to support campus media efforts to secure the rights of a free press. This support will be essential in bringing about perhaps through a referendum the changes needed to guarantee an independent press at this University. — — statue of a very muscular man beating a sword into a plough. The statue is one which the Soviet Union presented to the United Nations and I remember seeing it when I was in New York City a few weeks ago. The idea is that of peace. “Nation shall not lift into ploughshares.” These ideas are from the Bible. Before I saw the statue firsthand, I liked it. But when I confronted it in person I was appalled. The message was not so much peace as it was macho. He-men would bring us peace, the statue said. To me he-men are violent men. And macho is one of the root causes of violence in our world. The statue: a study of conflicting images. Let’s reflect on it.

Although many will immediately cast suspicious glance upon our institutions of learning it is necessary to remember that here are organizations those values actuating the arger social formation.

Historically nurtured by the virtues! of frontier democracy, is it too much to imagine/ that the present wave of blue jean pioneering and discontent may have something to do with reviving the authentic tradition of democracy which has long been unfortunately in decline? Although here is a question remaining unanswered, what can be said is ms: the frontier can be made to reappear if and w en a people confront changed circumstances with an open, adventurous mind. Will the American People, a family of diverse groups confronting a contracting economic system, choose to do this? Will they choose to reactivate the American Dream the trontier of a more democratic and equitable society? fhat, in closing, is a question whose historic solution has not yet appeared, which neither current politics nor analysis can thoroughly prescribe. * ° . * - David Stive �Third World SA formed To the Editor There has been a growing feeling that some work should be initiated towards developing an understanding of the state of development of socio-economic conditions in the countries of the third World, This becomes significant today when one is faced with the task of understanding the dynamics of movements for social transformations within the Third World and their consequent impact globally. To meet such a necessity, a number of Third World students have formed the Third World Student Association and have undertaken the present efforts to organize the “Third World Week” during November I7th-21st, 1976. We have invited about 25 guests mainly from the Third World countries who are resident in U.S.A. to present lectures and to lead discussions. Our economists, guests have diverse backgrounds educationists. students, scientists, political representatives of political movements, etc. We hope that their presence during the week here, their participation in formal lectures, discussions and informal get togethers would be enriching both educationally and culturally and as well contribute to a better understanding of the countries of the Third World and their relation to us. to the formal lectures and In addition discussions, we are organizing some fifmshows and one on China and the other two interesting plays — on Cuba. We believe that this week would be a major event in this campus this year. To assure the success of this week, we earnestly seek your participation and help. You can contribute for the Third World Week in a number of ways; 1) While we have made special efforts to minimize the costs, it is inevitable that an activity of the dimensions we have planned for would involve substantial expenditure. We have sought and obtained partial support from student governments and foreign student clubs. However, we still need more funds to carry through the whole program. We hope that you can contribute at least a part of qur needs financially. 2) To minimize total expenditure, we are seeking out hosts for our guests. While some of the guests would be able to stay for only part of the week, we are trying to arrange for everyone’s stay for the whole week i.e. Wednesday (Nov. 17) night through Sunday (Nov. 21 I night. We would be glad to obtain support in the form of hosting our guests. 3) We are expecting ditterent organizations to sponsor informal get togethers in the evenings during the week. Maybe this could be done by you and your organization. There may he yet, some other ways in which you may he able to express your support for this program. We would be glad to talk to you in detail any specific way in which you may want to support this program. Please call any of the following numbers for more information on the program and to discuss ways of your participation: Mary Brown 831-4631 R. Nagarajan 831-5505 Abed Mussalam 837-801 7 Peter Yuen 636-5693 Or, please le.ave your name and number and information on when you can be contacted by calling the CISA office at 831-5505. Our next planning meeting will be on Wednesday, October 27th at 5 p.m in Room 23,2 Norton Hall. Once again, we hope that you would share our enthusiasm for the “Third World Week” and join us in making the week a success. Third World Student Association Wine and cheese To the Editor. It is time a great honor is paid to those elite few we have the honor of calling the Student Senate. Better knpwn for its superb knowledge in ambiguity and all around failure to get the right action done at the right time. The Senate did have a chance to show at their meeting last Wednesday that they did have some principal and a little bit of integrity left but why do something good for a change and ruin their image.’ What happened was that an amendment that would set a policy in which no mandatory fees could be spent, by the Student Senate and a|l Task f orces, for the use of buying refreshments for these meetings was voted down. (1 bet you didn t even know they had refreshments.) On the amendment only one person voted for it and that was me. So now you can tell that it was not just a tew but practically all the Senators that felt that wine and cheese are needed for the Senate meetings. I wrote this amendment because spending mandatory fees for wine and cheese at Senate meetings is principally and financially wrong. Principally how does it look when the Senators who control how YOUR mandatory fees are spent take them and spend it on wine and cheese for themselves. So much for the Senate s integrity. Mandatory fees are supposed to be for the students not the Senate. It is supposed to be an honor to work for the Student ('.ovefnment and you are not supposed to get any special privileges, let alone vote for them. How can the Senators look all the funded clubs in the eye and say no, you can’t have so much money because we don't have enough. I hey sure don’t have enough "money, it’s all spent on themselves. Which brings us to my financial reason for the amendment. There are all together four wine and cheese parties a year for the Senate. I hey cost about $30 apiece, totaling $120 for the year, or as one Senator said only $120 a year. I wish that Senator would try to explain to the many clubs that got either no funding or maybe a $25 budget how little $120 is. If you were to give a club that has a budget of $25 an extra $30 it would mean an awful lot to them. Or why not buy a couple ot halt-kegs ol beer and set up a table in the union so that all students can take advantage. Asa matter of fact why not set it up before the next Senate meeting. I bet that would give the Senate some student involvement. The main point that I am trying to make though is that when the Student Oovernment is in a financial crisis (which we are in now) hVFRYBODY is supposed to give in a little. I hope this letter shakes the Senate into becoming a little more student oriented. The Senators should remember that they work for the students, the students do not work for them!!! Jim Peelle remembered To the Editor * Sieve l ersl The University has lost a very unusual member of its staff in Jim Peelle’s passing. In a time of continuous change at our school, it is all too easy to forget the elder statesmen who helped to forge a University as great as this one was even before the modern era. I first became well acquainted with James Peelle during my service on the President’s Athletic Committee as it was then known. At the same time I was also a Director or Assistant Dean of a University division and concerned with ruling on the eligibility of student-athletes. I always found him to be a very fair, open and honest person, this at a time when others in similar positions elsewhere were suspect. Jim was the "complete” athlete-administrator whose integrity was beyond doubt. The words ot tribute from colleagues, former students and former players are already being received. Jim is and will forever be remembered as one of their most remembered professors. And this is understandable because he devoted so much of his time and energy to his students and athletes. He secured jobs tor them; he loaned them money; he encouraged them in further study, he watched them grow, and he accomplished much in the athletic complex that could not be funded by the University. The field that bears his name (and am pleased that he lived I see it being dedicated to him) was his idea and his and we evaluate creation. His athletic record one and is an enviable things such is coaches by well know to athletic statisticians. But Jim deserves more credit than is generally realized ior his teaching ability. Mis courses in health were unique and it was unfortunate that because ot to reorganization plans he was not presently engaged in teaching these subjects. Mis approach was predicated on the wise assumption that laymen needed to know more about health problems both personal and communal and his courses leatured a refreshing emphasis on relevant contemporary material. As an historian I realize that institutions survive personalities as they must and 1 also subscribe to the notion that no one is indispensible. However, it there was an honor roll at this University for its “greats,” such venerable personalities as Jim Peelle would be included. “Ideas live but men die.” Jim Peelle wdl live forever at this University through both his ideas and his accomplishments. Me was ol that rare breed that had loyalty to an institution and the University at of Buffalo and The State University of New York his service. were the better for both Buffalo Milton I'lcsnr Wednesday, 27 October 1976 .

Wednesday, 27 October 1976 �Cross country Bad breaks hamper season by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Spectrum This year has been one of reward and disappointment for the Buffalo cross country team. and no one is more aware of that than their coach, Walter Gantz. “This year has been very frustrating. We’ve had tough breaks all year. But I'm very proud of them [the runners]. I look at the progress they’ve made since the beginning of the year in improving their own times, and I’m very satisfied,” said Gantz. The Buffalo runners got off to a fast start this season, but have been disappointed in their last the Four Big two , meets, Tournament, and the Canisius Invite, both held in Delaware Park. In the Big Four tourney, the finished third behind Bulls State College and Niagara Buffalo University, although Gantz feels that they ran effectively. pulled together yet as a team. I've got to get,some of the boys more committed. ’Obviously they're committed. t but something is missing." Test-taking Gantz cited various reasons inconsistent fo;the Bulls performances thus far, some internal, some external. Buffalo lost one runner due to an eligibility clause at this University, and another runner was unable to switch an exam schedule and missed the Canisius Invite. The situation regarding exam schedules bothers the Buffalo mentor, as lie feels that it is a correctable issue. “There seems to be a tremendous inflexibility among the heavy science teachers here.” Gantz said. "1 was willing to proctor the exam at a different place and time if necessary. Unfortunately, I wasn't given time to even approach the professor." The Bulls’ next two matches are the Fredonia Invite and the New York State Championships. Gantz has no realistic hopes of winning the championships, but understands that there are many schools who have entering scholarship funds to attract the top high school runners. Numbers “We didn't do badly, the other teams ran well. John Ryerson averaged almost five minutes per mile over the course [4.4 miles]. Our top three runners placed fourth, seventh, and eighth, but our fourth and fifth runners only finished seventeenthr and eighteen.”. The following week, the Bulls finished ninth in a field of twelve at the Canisius Invite, although this time around Gantz placed blame on both himself and the runners “I must put the blame on myself,” commented Gantz. “As a cross country coach all lean do is motivate the runners and keep practices interesting. There is no real way to teach strategy as in other types of running. “This team hasn't yet realized what a team is.

Viking project... —continued from horizon. One great advantage this vehicle would have over its stationary predecessors is that it could collect a variety of soil scoops, and not be confined to just one area. Flightworthy hardware The contemplated mission could exploit either a 1979 or launch opportunity, 1981 probably 1981 for it’s already too late for a 1979 launch. The lander would use pre-existing backup Viking hardware, hence the involved costs would be low. Tests with a three-eights scale model show that the lander would have sufficient stability to rove over a variety of tarrain. Viking Program Director James Martin commented that "We have flightworthy hardware, and a lot of time and money was invested in it. Looking at it from the point of view of the taxpayer, i’d like to see the hardware used.” Two years ago Martin argued that two landers would not give more than a glimpse of the planet with a wide variety of terrain types and atmospheric phenomena. The total cost for this program would probably hover around 320 million follars. A higher power thermo-electric generator would be needed to fulfill the increased power requirements of the Viking III instrument pack and mobile tracks. With the experience gained thusfar an improved bio-lab can be designed. The Viking 111 lander would move at a snail’s pace of about 492 feet per hour. Jet Propulsions Laboratory has formed a think tank to develop ideas. One long-range proposal the think lank has came up with calls for the construction in space of a space sail a large parasol measuring 2300 feet square. This sail would ride the solar wind (the stream of high energy particles constantly emitted from the sun) comet, Halley’s and chase culminating in a rendezvous in page 5— Specifically, one proposal recommends using the space sail to transport Martian rock samples back to earth. The Martian lander would blast off the surface and rendezvous with the parasol contained within an orbiter. When the samples arrive in earth orbit they could be recovered by the space shuttle.

Looking for any advantage, no matter how small, Richardson has also brought in two ballplayers whose name sounds like Pellom’s. One is Ken Parrom, a 6-4 guard from Arizona Western. The other is Bobby Pellman, who at 6-7 could be Pellom’s back-up dr another forward. Pellman played last year at Roxboro Community College, near Boston. Sports Editor Varsity basketball practice began on October I 5 with nineteen players trying out. Several were walk-ons, three were transfers, and the majority were members of last year’s varsity or junior varsity team. Only two members of last year’s 10-16 team graduated, so the Bulls have a solid base of experienced players to build on. In addition to that experience, coach Leo Richardson felt that there was a major change in the returnees’ attitudes. “Their attitudes are much better,” he said. “We don’t have the same kind of kids as we did last year.” Richardson expressed confidence that this positive change would be reflected in the team’s record. Although Richardson’s goal was a modest .500 record, he said that achieving that goal would be tougher this year because the schedule has been upgraded. New opponents Buffalo will face this year include Clemson, Holy Cross, Maine, Georgia and Wisconsin-Milwaukee. All are Division I teams, and in many cases, they replace Division II or III teams on Buffalo’s schedule. Assistant problem This year, Richardson does not (yet) have an assistant coach. In the past, he had a part-time assistant and a graduate student, even though he considered a full-time assistant as a bare-minimum. “Last year was a difficult situation,” said Richardson. “Right now. I’ve got to do it all myself.” Another problem caused by the lack of coaches is with the junior varsity team. No one was available to coach it, so the team had to be eliminated. Richardson would have liked to keep it for several reasons. First, it usually produces one or two players for the varsity (Don Scott and Fred Brookins last year), and secondly, Richardson felt that it gave others who weren’t good enough to make the varsity team a chance to play for the school. “That’s important when they graduate and become alumni,” On the rebound Buffalo last year was paced by the' nation’s leading rebounder, Sam Pellom, Pellom also topped the Bulls in scoring, and was aided by Sam Robinson off the boards, as the Bulls compiled the country’s second best average rebounding margin. George Cooper was impressive in the Bulls backcourt last year before he became inelligible. Larry Jones, who took his spot, also showed flashes of brilliance. The three transfers figure to bolster the line-up at both forward and guard. Ed Johnson, a transfer from Albany, is what Richardson calls “a complete ballplayer.” He is 6-2 and figures to be a valuable he said. Once again, the Bulls’ “season” begins with the Third Annual Basketball Luncheon, to be held November 18 at the Statler Hilton. The guest speaker will be Paul Snyder, owner of the Buffalo Braves. Tickets are $6 and available from Richardson (Room 200 Clark Hall, 831-2936).

The Spectrum . Page thirteen �Boycott of UUAB and that minority students and their representatives should directly control the amount of money they contribute as a group. Student government officials have from time to time been the idea ot to receptive separately-administered student activities. Those who oppose the concept generally argue that fee money to people over handing outside the student government leads to abuses which make intervention by the University administration more likely. This year, SA is asking for input for minority programming, but wishes to retain control. Reached for comment after the meeting, Guity said the reason given in public for the elimination of the budget line was the the incident surrounding Funkadelics concert in Clark Hall students, minority MULLIGAN’S Night Club PR USE NTS- ~ In Concert: —continued from page 1 . . . in April last year, he said. At that Hall was Clark concert and some ticket over-booked holders could not get in for the Ensuing performance. disturbances Accounted for several hundred dollars worth of damage. Guity felt the Funkadelics were the most successful UUAB concert last year. If this was the only thing standing in the way of funding, he said, the situation could be avoided in the future possibly just by staging the concert in a larger auditorium. Lessoff said that there were several reasons the minority budget was cut. Besides the problem with the concert last year, UUAB does not want to relinquish control of any of its programs, he said. Not only will they solicit and accept input from minority groups, Lessotf added, they will funnel income generated by th6se concerts info producing productions, minority more that income is any provided generated. Lessoff stressed that UUAB is basically a cultural activities organization which attempts to be r*4Hanr1nlfl IIWMIRI W 203 Allen St. ONE NIGHT ONLY!

Conners, currently a moving force in the black recording industry, has never appeared in Buffalo. Lessoff said that, according to Conners' BSU had agents, booking approached him previously to arrange a performance. After soliciting feedback from the black students on campus UUAB contacted radio station WBLK and arranged for them to co-sponsor the program. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller said last year’s funding of minority concerts on a separate line was unprecendented. He said that Sub Board, by its nature, intended to provide all the students at this University with services, and, in the case of UUAB. entertainment. In answering charges of racism in filling positions on Sub Board. Roller said that open procedures are used in the hiring of people to fill stipended positions and that the same screening porcesses apply to people of all races. Roller said that it was considered inappropriate to have a separate budget line for minority concerts this year. Instead, he favored creation of a minority board to insure that choices made would be programming in acceptable. “Somewhere along the line the art of compromise was abandoned." said Roller. is offered to vets A point of increasing concern to the Office of Veterans accepted and held Affairs has been the number of “1” grades by students and veterans in the past few years. An “I grade prolongs the pressure exerted on all students who need to meet long a deadline. Unfortunately, some prolong the agony too the loss. and, before they know it, it’s too late to recover from It is sufficient to note that an “1" grade must be made up within one year, according to official school policy. Last semester, out of a total population of 2,200 veterans, approximately 20 percent accepted one or more “1” grades. Though this figure is comparable to the entire student population, the Office of veterans Atfairs has directed their Tutorial Counselors to make every effort to contact veterans with “I” grades and to offer their assistance in completing that paper or pass that exam which needs to be done. As a result, the Tutorial Counselors, Liz Kiernan, Joe Packer and jbe Burdick are asking all vets currently holding “I” grades to contact the Tutorial Counseling Office at 202 - Townsend Hall and make the Tutorial Counselors aware of their personal situation. Every effort that can be made will be grades over made to eliminate the cloud of these “1 student/vets. The current controversy over “X” grades also demands the attention of the Office of Veterans’ Affairs. Student/veterans who have elected to accept “X” grades face the possibility of having to pay back their benefjt checks to the Veterans Administration. However, in some cases an “I” grade can replace an “X” grade, in which case certain stipulations are made by the concerned instructor. For example, a paper, an exam makeup, or other requirement may be stipulated by the instructor to allow the change. Therefore, the Tutorial Counselors would seem to be the hope for veterans today who have “X” or “I” grades. \ I IT’S : J HAIR - Palmer’s Beauty Salon 3124 Main St. • - J STYLE • (NEXT TO LAUNDROMAT) UNISEX PRECISION • J LAYER CUTS •Student Introductory Offer: 20% OFF |Call for appointment please -836-07772 • - - JOHN HAMMOND November 18 KENNY RANKIN Shows 10 Wednesday night Oct. 27th 8:00 pm The Haas Lounge A debate between the candidates from the State Assembly and the State Senate. are & 12 pm for tickets and Info.

Upon chided ago?” receiving a small response, she told the audience, “You’ve yet to demonstrate that you care for your futures.” by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor to feature. Instead, he accuses the Democrats of being big spenders. She countered his charges, saying, “We’re not big spenders. It depends on what you spend it on.” A big expenditure, she said, is the B-52 bomber. She received rousing applause when she listed her “little demands”: child educational welfare, programs, health programs . . . and a little security.” Carter, she said, would try to cut from some programs to give to others. The Ford Administration accused him of trying to decrease and thus weaken the military budget. In fact, she explained. Carter is only trying to cut $7 billion dollars of waste. Abzug When Bella defeated the Conservative Republican incumbent with her liberal and energetic Student support has had a daughter her campaign, effect on the commented to the rest of the significant family, "Thank God we got government in the past, she said, her out of our house and into citing her own alliances with several student protests during the their House.” * . Abzug will be leaving that House this Congressional after lost the having September, New York State Democratic Senatorial primary race, but she will leave with the same vitality and boisterousness that earned her a seat in the Congress. Appearing Friday in Haas Lounge, she spoke on behalf of Democratic standard bearers Carter and Walter Jimmy students Mondale. Appealing to for support, she said that a Carter administration would provide more job opportunities for young people, instituting educational programs throughout the country. “I know you hope this world will have a decent job for you,” a job in which students can make use of the skills they’ve learned in collegeshe said. Yet in order for students to have some say in the government which would make these allowances, students must express their preference at the polls this November. peace movement and Watergate. Acknowledging the prediction that this election will draw out the smallest percentage of voters of any presidential race in many years, Abzug implored students to make their way to the polls. She expressed understanding for those who did not intend to vote, but sharply disagreed with them. “It’s copping out,” she said. “Everyone for a pays price non-participation.” In 1972, 56 percent of the United States’ voting population went to the polls, electing a Republican president, who was later to become, “the greatest welfare recipient this country has ever seen.” As a result of the Watergate investigation, Abzug qfiipped, “Nixon gave us Gerald Ford as his revenge.” Abzug then condemned Ford’s performance’ as president during the last two years, stressing the fact that he vetoed 62 pieces of legislation since his inauguration. subsequently The Congress overrode ten of those vetoes. “Mr. Ford got so veto happy he tried to veto an entire city.” Big spenders Ford also went back on his word, she said. She referred to Ford’s promises during his vice presidency not to pardon Nixon if the time arose for such action and Aid to cities This country needs to spend more money on the creation of jobs, she said. Right now, “we’re willing to pay billions of dollars for unemployment compensation” that just barely allows a person to live a normal life, adding further to that person’s degradation. She said Carter feels, “It’s hard when his insistence that he would not you’re hungry to hold your head run for president in 1976. “In up high.” Carter intends to aid large addition, Ford and Dole were among the last Republicans in cities like Buffalo, she affirmed. Washington to concede that He favors federal welfare reform, done which would alleviate the localRichard Nixon had burden, by initially having the something wrong,” she said. Abzug charged that Ford, in federal government reimburse 75 his campaign literature, did not percent of the welfare costs, and list any new programs he expected gradually taking responsibility for the entire cost. In addition, he plans to assist the cities’ industries by reducing operative costs, which would include the regulation of the oil industry and investigating alternative forms of energy, she said. She implored students not to vote for Eu.gene McCarthy, claiming a vote for McCarthy was really a vote for Ford. “Now is the wrong time to show protest.” Finally, she reemphasized the importance of a large turnout on Election Day. This country, she said, was based on revolution against a tryanhical king. Our the forefathers stressed importance of the vote, although, maybe not for she added, everyone. Black men received their voting rights with the Fourteenth Amendment, she said, while women and eighteen year olds received their rights in 1920 and 1972, respectively. Noting that she was born in 1920, Abzug looked upon her audience of eighteen-year-olds and older, and smiled. “Between us, we can take care of the whole thing.” �Absentee ballots have arrived Man from Stasafran A l l)-year-old man in Bay City, Michigan was found a (CPS) long way from his alleged home. Stasafran, a planet he said was located off route Earth, north of the orange Milky Way. The police questioned the man who was sleeping in a motel doorway, who claimed to be fleeing nuclear holocaust on his home planet. The man gave “A-1 B-2 Proton Street” as his home address and offered as proof of his identity the letters “TS” tattooed on his arm, standing for “Travel Spaceman." Travel Spaceman spent the day in the Bay County Jail drunk tank and under further questioning said the “TS” actually stood for Terry Spencer.

Monday, 25 October 1976 % Unjustified cost One pre-dent majpr reported, “it got to the point where I had memorized every question Kaplan had. What was the use of going? My scores didn’t improve.” Although people have various opinions, on the whole most felt the results did not justify the cost. The smaller but most important costs are the registration for the admission tests themselves. However, by far the most expensive part of the process are the applications themselves. Pre-law advisor Jerome Fink said most students apply to between nine and twelve law schools, with some applying to as many as twenty. At a cost oif between twenty and thirty dollars per school, applications alone can cost as much as $500. Four digits Medical School application costs are even more outlandish, running as high as two thousand dollars. According to Josephine Capuana, Advisor for Health Related Professions, prospective doctors apply to anywhere from ten to fifty schools with a record high of 99. As with the law schools, each application costs about $25, but-in the case of medical schools, once a person has gotten through the initial application process, a personal interview is required by almost every school before an applicant is accepted. Thus if the student is granted interviews by a number of schools in different areas of the country, the travel costs can be astronomical. It is not unusual for a student to make two or three trips to cities anywhere in the country. The costs of airfare, food and lodging on these trips can add to amounts well into the thousands of dollars. This means that between the travel expenses, applications costs, and the other smaller fees, a student could easily spend his annual tuition charge just trying to get in.

The surrender of the minutes and the subsequent release of Statesman funds occurred immediately, but left neither side in the dispute satisfied. Statesman editors felt they may have gone so far in the under pressure precedent setting release of a newspaper’s confidential minutes. R. Gilbert Manasi cut off funds, alleging that a Senate motion directed him to do so. Compromise reached The funds were released Wednesday as a result of a compromise reached between the review Statesman editors and committee.

Quinn lamented that because of mandated design changes, such private information as marital status,, hair and eye color and other descriptive material used by been has authorities the the forms eliminated from unregistered voters must use in order to register for this year’s elections.Quinn, whose office is located with the Erie County Sheriff’s office, stated that he would have been more than happy to help any students interested in resolving their particular registration problems. However, “there is a framework that must be adhered to,” he said. This “framework” is included in Section 151 of the New York entitled Election Law State Gaining or losing a resilience. which reads, in part: “For the purpose of registering and voting no person shall be deemed to have gained or lost a residence by reason of his presence or absence a student of any while institution of learning.” However, sub-section (b) states that the word “residence” means person a where that place maintains a fixed, permanent and principal home and to which he, ... wherever temporarily located, always intends to return This section of the law has been a prime reason for the many foul-ups, ballot absentee according to.

Statesman editors are not permitted to receive stipends or academic credit in return for their full time commitments. In response to Statesman difficulties, the Stony Brook Student Polity Senate created a review committee to advise the editors concerning their problems. Searching for information regarding the troubles, the committee requested confidential editorial meeting minutes so that the Statesman editors felt the autonomy of the student press was being threatened.

The funds had been frozen two weeks ago at the direction pf Polity treasurer Mark Manasi. Manasi apparently acted without authorization, and was informally censured by the Statesman Review Committee (that Manasi alleged had requested the budget freeze). At that time. Review Committee Chairperson Isaiah Bloch denied any such request and asked that Manasi “not use my name as a tool.” Senate spokespersons confirmed Bloch’s statement, and went on to declare that they had therefore not passed a motion directing the freeze.

A Iternati ve candidate Levin favors socialist state ‘Proposition 14’ UFW amendment forces labor rights by Diane Gitiln Spectrum Staff Writer The United Farnt Workers Union (WFW) and its supporters are currently conducting a nationwide campaign to include a controversial amendment in the California State Constitution. The amendment would guarantee basic labor rights for farm workers, just as similar rights were granted for non-farm workers in 1935 under the National Labor Relations Act. The amendment, known as Proposition 14 (Farm Worker Initiative) is up for approval as a referendum on the November ballot. The amendment would facilitate farm worker attempts to achieve fair labor contracts by giving them the right to collective bargaining, secret ballot elections and union representation by choice. In addition, the Farm Worker Initiative would for the first time allow union access to grower fields during off-work hours, furnish an authoritative list of eligible voters and establish a regulatory board to conduct hearings on unfair labor practices. If passed, Proposition 14 will replace its precursor, Governor Jerry Brown’s 1975 Agricultural Labor Relations Act (ALRA). Since the Farm Workers Initiative would require another constitutional amendment to change it, it won’t be vulnerable to lobbyist pressure in the legislature when additional funds are needed. The ALRA board had encountered powerful grower lobbyist opposition which was intent-on withholding badly needed appropriation unless certain modifications —continued on page Do the presidential nominees Of the two major “sane and rational society,” a large scale version ot a American political parties offer an adequate choice cooperative tribal society^ The candidate issued a scathing attack against for the voter in the upcoming bicentennial year prosperous and powerful labor unions, of the America’s presidential Jules candidate Levin, election? charging that “not a single union exists for the Socialist/Labor Party, does not think so. benefit of its workers.

Pardini Spectrum Staff Writer Just how rich does one have to be to defend himself in criminal court? How much does it cost to profess innocence, when the state contends guilt? Private lawyers, on the average, charge anywhere from thirty-five to sixty-five dollars an hour for out-of-court preparation, and two hundred to five hundred dollars a day for actual time spent in coUrt, according to Erie County Bar Association president Vincent Doyle. Exact fees depend upon the complexity of the case involved and the relative skill and experience of the lawyer hired. Before a lawyer will even begin to quote a fee, he will discuss the case with his potential client, the district attorney’s office, and the lawyers of any possible co-defendants in the case. His fee is based on prediction; How long will the case take, and what is its probable outcome? No help This fee, argued Doyle, does not all reach the lawyer’s wallet, much less his bank book. In preparing a case, an attorney must battle the comparatively unlimited expense account of the prosecution. The prosecutor usually will have two or three aides at his disposal for research, in addition to the extensive investigative, arm of the police. The lawyer receives virtually no help from the state in preparing his case, except certain rights granted him by law. The only information given by the prosecution consists of what are called “discovery documents.” These are documents and statements made by his client, as well as the results of any tests relevant to the case. ; ;fl yr Other than this, the lawyer is on his own.;He must find his own witnesses and evidence, while the names of any witnesses the prosecution may have are kept secret, along with any testimony they may offer. Because of this, the lawyer ,is forced to hire research assistants and private investigators if he is to do an adequate job of defense. Most cases simple Doyle stated that a lawyer’s overhead ranges from forty-five to sixty-five percent of the total fee to pay for office rent, staff, supplies, as well as the updating of his law-library, so that he may keep abreast of new laws and recent decisions. He estimated that the average lawyer spends a-minimum of one hour doing research for every hour spent in court. Should the case wind up in court, he figured that up to fifteen hours a day are spent going over what transpires, preparing for the next day, and studying the various transcripts and motions before the court. “Probably seventy-five percent of the cases are relatively simple,” Doyle stated. “They do not require a great deal of research, or a great deal of investigation, especially by those who have been in. practice a number of years and are familiar with the sections of the law that apply.” The other twenty-five percent are complex and involved; he said. Intangible and innocuous activities Abraham S. Blumberg takes a conflicting view in his article, The Practice of l.aw as a Confidence Game, which appears in the Political Science textbook “Before the Law.” “At the outset, the lawyer uses a measure of sales puff which may range from unboudning self-confidence to complete arrogance,” he said. “The lawyer establishes the minimum of groundwork necessary to assure a minimum of haggling over the fee and its eventual payment.” According to Blumberg, lawyers are clearly in the practice for the money. He contends that most of the lawyer’s activities are intangible and innocuous, because they consist mostly of words ol advice, telephone calls, conferences, negotiations, written letters and opinions, and trivial legal manuevers for dismissal of the charge. “They try to keep their clients on the precise edge of anxiety calculated to encourage prompt payment of fee,” he stated. Lees are often collected in installments, precipitating the need for suspense prior to payment. A client hung in limbo will pay more readily than one with a ticket to Sing-Sing. Blumberg sees the role of the lawyer as one of a double-agent, negotiating with both the court and client. It is because of this double-agent status that the lawyer’s degree of professionalism is the brought to question. F.xactly whose end is the attorney serving - courts, No the client’s or his own? money ' in law a Doyle challenges these arguments, saying there is no money in 26,000 were only last year, law career.

As One of America’s best known and most socially-committed psychiatrists, Robert Coles, will give the annual Fenton Lecture this year at 8 p.m., Moot Courtroom, this Wednesday. Coles is presently for Harvard University Health Services. Research The wide range of interests Coles’ possesses has lead him toward continual exploration of the American experience. He has combined the insights of a social critic with the vision of a creative writer in his continuing examination of American Social History. Coles’ assorted writings reflect the scope of his work and accomplishments. Included among his works are Children of Crises Erik H. Erikson: The Growth of His Work, The Middle Americans as well as other works including five books for children. His three-volume Children of Crisis has won numerous awards, including the 1973 Pulitzer Prize. He is currently working on the fourth and fifth volumes. For the Bicentennial Fenton Lecture, Coles will discuss the different ways that children and their families live in varying social and cultural settings in America. The James Fenton Lectures are presented each year at this University through the James Fenton Lecture Foundation. p w , r* k , • «fi.

Among those present was SSC Executive Committee member Robin Weeks, who presented his own account of the situation. President Robert Ketter ordered SSC to cease operations July 30. 1976. In revoking the College’s charter, Ketter implicitly endorsed the minority report of the Colleges Chartering Review Committee (CCRC), rather than the majority report which called for conditional approval of the college. Ketter announced in June that besides considering the CCRC report, he also sought and heeded the opinion of Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg and members of his Academic Cabinet. He also indicated that his basic rationale for revoking the charter was a lack of faculty participation 'and an absence of academic and whether this transformation was possible. SSC had already been given sufficient time to comply with the previous chartering committee recommendation that had also called for new leadership. But because sufficient action had not been taken, they felt the college should be abolished. Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) President Howard Kling challenged the cancellation of the College, on grounds that the decision was undemocratic. He said no one at the College had been contacted and there was no negotiations regarding future restrictions on the College. He felt there had been a lack of communication between the College and the entire chartering process. Weeks cites politicism Weeks told the task force SSC was closed because the University opposed its political beliefs. This feeling stems from the College’s activity in several controversial events. Weeks said SSC had fought against the Vietnam War, fought for the impeachment of Nixon, struggled against political repression on and off campus, fought for student’s administrative leadership. Ketter questioned the rights and a democratic university, and involved qualifications of some of the SSC instructors. itself in movements concerning Attica, Angela Davis, In a May 26 letter.

Krason Special to The Spectrum The last of the Carter-Ford debates was touted by many as likely to be decisive. It probably was not. It was basically a lackluster affair, without the stridency of the second encounter. Both men were extremely cautious, afraid of making another of the prize blunders which have characterized this campaign. At no point did either candidate seem to have the advantage or have his opponent against the ropes. On its surface, the debate seemed to be a draw. It probably did more for Carter, however, than for Ford, because the Georgian succeeded in accomplishing two things during it. First, he finally managed to make himself appear “presidential.” And second, he seemed to answer his questions with an honesty and humility that may motivate many to put aside their suspicions of him. This was especially evident when he acknowledged that he had been mistaken in granting his. controversial Playboy interview and in allowing the campaign to degenerate to a series of low-level personal attacks iiWecent days. If, as some have said, the American people have been looking for a reason to vote Democratic this year. Carter may have at least given it to them. Moreover, Ford needed to win the debate much more than Carter. It is clear that he did not do that and thus probably failed to arrest Carter’s recent rise in the polls. He will now have to rely on a projected media blitz in the closing week and hope that the former Georgia governor makes another improbable stumble. Domestic affairs The debate was slated to focus on “any topic As it turned out, most of the questions dealt with domestic matters. The nature of the queries differed from those of the first two debates in that they dealt with broad concerns instead of specific issues. Both candidates were more willing to make their answers pertinent than in the last debate and the questioners seemed more insistent that they do so. Early in the exchange. Ford said that some sacrifices would have to be made by the American people in order to insure an adequate military defense and to deal with our domestic problems. Carter said that less sacrifice would be required it he were elected. He also claimed that in the past middle income people have been unfairly expected to assume most of the sacrifice for government while the very rich and the very poor have reaped all the benefits. ” Support for cities Later, however, he called j tor dealing with the problems of the poor. He alleged that the federal government has not done enough to create employment opportunities fpr those on welfare, and that Washington should be a more active partner in helping the cities to combat their problems. He attacked the Ford administration’s hesitancy in giving aid to New York City. that his Ford countered by insisting administration has helped (he cities, claiming community revenue sharing. for support Fold and urban mass tiansil. development programs, also stated that he has done much to help Blacks, who may well be the forgotten group in this election. He said fhat he had made many governmental appointments ot Blacks and that, his administration was acting against housing and voting discrimination. Carter disagreed, indicating that lords past support tor civil rights was soft and that his administration had no real commitment to Black Americans. Indeed, the last eight years ot Republican rule seem to have been ones of. at best, benign neglect toward Blacks. The debate made it seem likely that a Carter administration is likely to assume a more activist role than Ford’s in promoting the interests of Blacks and the cities. Hopeless? On the environmental issue. Ford disagreed with environmental groups who called his record “hopeless.” He stressed his support of land and water conservation programs and his creation of new national park land. He also defended his veto of an anti-strip mining bill on the grounds that it would have meant a loss of jobs and coal resources. Carter, however, made Ford’s arguments seem weak. He said that the United Mine Workers had supported the strip mining bull and that Ford’s new national park land was mostly in Alaska and wouldn’t be usable for years. probably the single most On the economy election issue Carter again took Ford to important task. He said that the incumbent should be “ashamed” of his economic record and cited some of the same dismal statistics on unemployment, inflation, and housing starts as he did in the first debate. Ford maintained that inflation had been held down and consumer confidence was rising. He also repeated his outrageous allegation of the last debate that Democratic administrations relied on war to cut unemployment. All in all. the recent increase in consumer prices and only an insignificant decline in the jobless level seem to promise that the economy is an issue which will aid Carter.

It gave good insight into their characters and succeeded in drawing some distinctions between their broaden political philosophies. In this sense, however, it was exceptional. The other debates were characterized by distortions, irrelevancies, personal attacks, untimely blunders, and the subversion of issues to image. The debates have thus failed badly in their original purpose of educating the voters on the issues. Indeed, there is some indication that they may have further confused them.

Page seven �Siggelkow answers GSELJ To the Editor. I noted with interest an unsigned statement from “The Graduate Student Employees Union Stewards Council” entitled “GSEU attacks Somit delay” that appeared in the October 20 issue of The Spectrum. My purpose here, because of certain to correct at least one serious is implications, reporting error. Included within the statement is the following: worried lest the GSA was bringing GSEU representatives to its October 8th meeting, Siggelkow “called GSA President Pat Ley, to tell her not to bring GSEU people and, after reviewing the the agenda, to postpone the ‘regular’ meeting.” Well, parties by all postponed •meeting was mutually involved and Ms. Ley had talked to me about adding another routine item to the agenda. However, I would never mandate either the agenda content or the guest list. I am concerned about the charge even assuming the unlikely possibility that I could that carry it off or that GSA would even permit it “ . TRB - - I would exert such pressure on GSA in the first place. from Washington The entire matter is really quite simple. Dr. Somit has clearly indicated his willingness to sit down with any authorized student groups or their representatives and discuss problems that concern the University community. As I understand it, certain legal problems are involved if Dr. Somit meets with what is still presently neither a legally constituted union nor recognized student group. The alternative suggested was to meet under the aegis of GSA, which already meets periodically with the President, and is certainly capable of drawing up its own agenda independently as the elected and representative body for graduate students. In my role as Vice President for Student Affairs 1 am arranging for a specific meeting date. The agenda which I certainly have no desire to “review” can well include any and all items of concern. Nothing precludes GSA from inviting other graduate students to attend such a meeting, and 1 understand that there is already some overlapping membership between “GSEU” and GSA. There is nothing wrong with that, but any recognition of “GSEU” as a bona fide union in itself is legally outside the purview of the President.. Within this simple framework outlined above, the meeting if this is the real intent does not appear to pose an insurmountable problem. I have also been authorized by Dr. Somit to invite the editor of The Spectrum if he desires to attend, to this particular session, when and if it is scheduled; I hope this will encourage even more open Never, never, never will President Ford sign a bill for handgun registration. He wrote Gun Week he preserve wants to “time-honored traditional freedoms” in America. They don’t have them abroad. An angry wife in Tokyo, for example, might throw a plate at a husband, a more efficient wife in New York would reach into the tea-cozy and drill him dead with a .44, root-a-toot-toot, reciting the second Amendment to the Constitution as she did so, about the right to “keep and bear arms.” She might be sorry afterwards, of course. You can repair a plate, not a husband. But as Mr. Ford wrote to the National Rifle Association, he is going to safeguard freedoms “that we and our forefathers have enjoyed throughout our 200-year history.” Mr. Ford is against crime, too, of course. He promised the International Association of Chiefs of Police at Miami last month that, if elected, top priority in ‘‘the first 100 days” after Inauguration “will be the rallying of America behind federal anti-crime legislation.” There’s going to be a new “Council on Crime” that will lay out a “comprehensive 5-year plan.” Juvenile offenders, watch out. “Forty-five percent of all violent crime,” he told the Chiefs sternly,, “is now perpetrated by — — — — juveniles.” The percentage of juvenile crime, oddly enough, is just about the same as the percentage of juvenile teenagers out of work in the ghettoes, but Mr. Ford did not make the connection, any more than he did between America’s astonishing crime rate and its communication. I hope this helps to explain the situation and that it is clear that “the administration” is not closing the door to meetings with interested students. last year involved firearms. In the United States 25,000 people were killeci by firearms. “A person born in urban America today,” Edward Kennedy told the Senate, “stands a greater risk of being murdered than he would have faced in combat in World War II.” Voters wavering between Ford and Carter in this strange election of 1976 might consider this subsidiary issue of gun control: Ford says he’ll never ban them; Carter says sure he will, of course. He’s supposed to be fuzzy on issues, but in a form appeal for funds last February, he had a sentence: “You and 1 will agree on some issues, disagree on others,” He added, “I favor hand gun control.” He has been saying it since. Traveling through the bayous and beaches of Mississippi last month, Mr. Ford seemed to labor at times to make the contrary point: wonderful outdoor recreation area, he told them: “I congratulate you for it; you have fishing, hunting . . And speaking of hunting,” he broke in suddenly as the though struck him, “I don’t believe that the law-abiding citizens of this country should be deprived of the freedom to bear arms.” He repeated it all day. “Jimmy Carter, ■ if elected President in November,” warned a writer in Guns & Ammo , an affiliated firearms trade paper, “would pursue a program of domestic disarmament as did his Democratic predecessors, Wilson, Roosevelt and Johnson.” Domestic disarmament; it sounds bad, and the National Rifle Association is restless and jittery. Appealing for more funds for that battle in Massachusetts, it calls advocates of handgun control . planning “a group of anti-Constitution fanatics to invade our children’s schools and churches, civic clubs and union halls with their unfair, half-truths about guns and gun ownership.” Dogs and bicycles and automobiles, you see, should be licensed, but firearms not. Concealable handguns shouldn’t be banned. President Ford makes it all plain; “If you want to go hunting,” he told the folks in the Deep South recreation area, “you shouldn’t have to go down and register your fireapms with some federal officials.” See? it’s that damn bureaucracy again. Crime has jumped, of course; you remember how Richard Nixon, in 1968 was going to name a new law and order attorney general (John Mitchell); end permissiveness in the courts, and curb crime? Well since then the rate of violent crime is up 60 .. astonishing number of handguns. Massachusetts is going to vote on election day on “Question 5,” the first state of the Union to have a ballot referendum on an absolute ban on private ownership of all handguns. The whole country will watch. The National Rifle Association is up in arms. It is the most successful one-issue lobby in the country, with annual budget over $10 million. percent. Arrayed against it is the pygmy National Council to This should not be approached in any light Control Handguns, with local affiliates, which hopes spirit. Growing crime in America is a symbol of to put $30 or $40,000 into the Massachusetts democratic failure; the rate still rises; the best Mr. shootout.

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.Republication of any matter herein without express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. Women Voters, Council of Churches, B’nei B’rith and a surprising number of tough politicians mixed with the do-gooders: both Massachusetts senators; the governor; and the Boston police commissioner Robert diGrazia. Oddly enough Michael Ford, while campaigning for his father in Boston, said let’s ban handguns; “The interests of humanity take precedence over the interests of the gun lobby,” he said. Going back to Mrs. Maknamura, in Tokyo (who has just broken a plate on her husband, Hideo, you remember, in that domestic fracas) a funny thing is that she couldn’t pull a gun on her man because of Douglas MacArthur. Yes, really. The rigid control on guns in Japan was imposed by the U.S. army of occupation after World War II; no private Japanese can own a handgun, and hunting rifles require licenses and preliminary classroom instruction. The paradox is that Americans, who have the loosest regulation in the world at home, imposed the foughest on the Japanese. Only 171 crimes in Japan worse slower. Growing crime encourages all the forces of authoritarianism in a country of harshness, discipline, fear and prejudice. The Nixon catchword was “law-and-order;” the Ford phrase is milder, “restore, domestic tranquility.” He is not the demagogue Nixon was. He told the Chiefs happily that he had cut the rate of increase of violent crime “to 9 percent.” That would shock us if it were dollar inflation. Law the ineffective Meanwhile, Enforcement Assistance Administration (LEAA) has spent a billion and,a half dollars since inception but little of it goes to clearing the ghastly jam of lower courts, and much of it goes to police and prosecutors and prowl cars, to rake in more offenders, juvenile and all. They add to the congestion and are freed by plea-bargaining. Crime rises 9 percent; guns multiply. “You can’t solve problems by throwing money them,” says Mr. Ford easily. And he promises a “rallying of America” against crime, once he is elected. Goody; we can all break out our WIN buttons again Whip Illegality Now. — — �Racism at SUNY at "mE.WFRf BECALMfP— BUT ON THE OTHER Buffalo ■ . Racism at SUNYAB is creeping out of the woodwork. A couple of weeks ago Spectrum published an article on Ken Johnson’s case. Tfiis article presented his defense committee’s view that Ken is being made the victim of a racist frameup. The purpose behind the committee’s efforts is clear. When Ken was arrested nearly a year ago, the local papers attempted to try his case in print. The hysteria surrounding the rapes in downtown parking ramps was used to justify distorted coverage favoring the police version of the case. This is common in cases involving black men and makes their prospects for a fair trial extremely thin. A community innoculated against believing that the police will lie and brutalize black defendants in order to obtain convictions is a safe, unquestioning community. This happened during the Attica rebelliomin 1971 and the Martin Sostre trial several years ago. There was reason to believe that it might succeed again. But Ken Johnson was not a man who would bow down to pressure. He remains a respected man in the black community who is cherished by his friends. Ken’s friends knew his character and they immediately realized that there was more to Ken’s case than the “news media” had revealed. When the community learned that a brother (and Ken is certainly a brother) had been brutalized and arrested by unidentified hippie dressed “policemen,” people began taking up Ken’s cause. One of the first tasks Ken’s committee and the SUNYAB support committee assigned themselves was to infbrro the hiding something. The first author signed his name “Concerned with the Truth,” while lying about the mynber of policemen who made the arrest. Ken Johnson never said “they’re trying to roust me” and the author knows this. Also untrue was the assertion that there were many calls to the Community Health Center. Ken was in fact fingered by one man. The second author is more devious. He claims that the defense committee attempted to use sexism to say that “the victims asked for it.” Where is the if he does exist raise proof? Let “Michael Kaye” his questions to the defense committee. He couldn’t prove any of his assertions because they are lies. The problem is clear. Racism dies hard it is on the bathroom walls of SUNYAB; it is in the Buffalo police force; it is in the community and it is behind the frameup of an innocent black man. This should make us all the more vigilant in fighting racism and stopping police frameups. They have arrested the — — — public. A campaign was begun to print and distribute as possible. Radio stations, newspapers and community groups were also approached for their support. The article which appeared in these pages was part of this effort. And ,it is apparent that this campaign is having a positive HANP. WE RE NOT SHMNff* effect. People want to learn the truth about racism in our criminally injust system. They buy raffle tickets, they come to the Ken Johnson support committee table and they listen. Last month’s benefit was a tremendous success. But this bothers some elements of the community. Despite the long documented history of racism and frameups in Buffalo and elsewhere, these individuals prefer either to sit back and allow another frameup or become a part of that railroad. I see this as the motivation behind two letters, which recently appeared in The Spectrum. These letters are replete with falsehoods and deliberate distortions and represent an attempt to re-create the original confusion surrounding Ken’s case. And their authors are very clever! Anyone who is not familiar with the facts behind the case might give them credibility or at the very least suspect the defense committee of To the Editor many fact sheets and pamphlets as ‘ wrong rn^n^ Brian hand The obvious answer To the Editor. Powell story a disservice To the Editor. Congratulations to the Sociology Department for a course in Alternative Societies, and to Professor Ed Powell for teaching such a course by defending real alternatives. The implication that to defend a position necessarily means “dictating” to others is absurd, and all who know Professor Powell recognize how far such an accusation is from being true of his personal and pedagogical style. In fact it is all too easy to dictate a limited or personal viewpoint when one is pretending to be unbiased and neutral. The value of the course taught by Professor. is all the more evident this month as we are' given the “alternative” of Carter and Ford on all the national networks four times in a month. Who is brainwashing the American public and the students? It is not individuals like Professor Powell who raise the issue of real alternatives that go beyond the spurious choice between two brands of toothpaste. (Which of these two candidates, by th?,oyay, is proposing cutting tuitions, expanding enrpUTO?.pts, and keeping public education from becoming accessible only to the smaller numbers who can afford the growing costs? Which candidate really questions military priorities, and is proposing serious disarmament negotiations, with definite objectives the only sane policy in today’s explosive world?) — Tn..sounding the alarm against Professor Powell, The Spectrum has done a great disservice to this campus. Who will be the next professor to have his or her name tainted with insinuations and suggested violations of laws on the front page of this paper? Does the editor of The Spectrum not understand that this action threatens anyone who and in may wish to express a contrary opinion particular other professors whose jobs are at stake? If The Spectrum is going to monitor our classes, and on the flimsiest of excuses question our integrity on its front page, we will all feel the more vulnerable and unwilling to go beyond the conventional opinion. And students, as well as teachers, will be .the victims of such a climate. \ The situation calls for a public clarification and rectification of its policy by The Spectrum, as well to Professor Powell. We think that this as resulted from hasty probably matter) has misjudgment, and hope that the whole question will be resolved in a manner that reflects the basically responsible journalism of The Spectrum. — Professor James Lawler Professor Charles R. Hall Professor Dale Riepe Professor J.D. Marciano SUNY at Cortland 1 was very much interested in your reaction to where the student events at Stony Brook government has apparently sought to “encroach” upon the inalienable rights of the campus newspaper (editorial, October 20). Your solution, predictably, is to create a “more impartial” body to allocate funds for student-run activities, since otherwise “partisan student politicians” are in a position to determine the resources of an organ which may criticize them. (Student politicians, like all politicians, are of course “partisan” when they’re not on your side. Otherwise they’re statesmanlike.) Would you be equally comfortable with a panel of distinguished “impartial” citizens controlling the budget of the New York Times and Newsweek ? I hope not. As badly as it may comport with your notions of honor, there really is no such thing as an impartial committee or individual. Who, for example, is going to choose the members of this committee? And can you really find a halfway intelligent person without biases? I’m disappointed, but not terribly surprised, that the obvious answer evidently did not occur to you. Let the budget be determined by whatever the paper’s advertisers and readers are willing to pay for it. Though the idea may appear shocking, that is precisely the basis on which a number of very distinguished student newspapers operate. That way the editors are beholden to no “partisan’ politicians, but only to their own sense of journalistic integrity. And if it turns out that students won’t pay a nickel or a dime or whatever for the paper, then maybe it’s just not worth publishing. Howard G. Foster Associate Professor In an editorial last Wednesday, The Spectrum inaccurately implied that our proposal for a new method of campus print media funding allocations was similar to a compromise proposal recently agreed to in the Stoney Brook Statesman controversy. In fact, the Statesman compromise involved only the surrendering of its Executive Board minutes to the student government, which the Statesman agreed to do only if the committee to receive those minutes was composed equally of governmental and media representatives. Also, the headline on the story about the Statesman, in the same issue, said inaccurately that the student Polity Senate had frozen the Statesman budget. Actually, the budget was frozen by Polity Treasurer Steve Minosi. �Buffalo as it was at Franklin Gallery by David J. Gianturco Spectrum Arts Staff Today there is a living representation of Buffalo’s yesteryear located in the antiquated atmosphere of Buffalo’s Allentown section on and around Franklin Street, between Hdward and Allen. Also located here is a new art gallery whose efforts to imitate the old are outdoing all other attempts to display the beauty and magnificance that was “Old Buffalo.” The Franklin Art Gallery, Jocated at 405 Franklin Street, offers a unique look at Buffalo’s past in a newly restored building that is as much a representation ot Western New York s past as the works its houses are. Some of the works on display are original pieces dating back to the turn of the century. One piece, for example, is a Carrereand Hastings color print (only two of which are known in this size) of the Pan American Exposition and the city of Buffalo as they were in 1901. This particular work offers the students of Architecture and History the exact reproductions and locations of the monuments and buildings that have since been razed. This color view is considered to be ot original size, and some smaller reproductions are known to exist, those being issued as keep-sakes for visitors of the exposition. This particular work measures over two feet high and three feet wide. Photographs are allowed by the management.

Some of her skills are evident in water reflections and halt-reflections, employing her paints in an almost temporal manner. -These are just some of the examples of the work to be seen at the Franklin Art Gallery, open Saturdays I 2:30 to 4:00 p.m. A trip to Allentown ahould also include a walk down Gallery Alley (located along Franklin Street from Edward to Allen). Students ol art (and ot history) will find the excursion a rich and memorable experience. Allentown restored One last note; if it’s modern pieces you’re looking for. you won’t find many at- the Franklin Art Gallery or in most of the other establishments in Allentown. The galleries, many limited by space as is the Franklin Art Gallery, don’t try to compete with the Albright-Knox. Old style works fit in better with the atmosphere of Buffalo’s living representation of its past. Owners have invested a good amount of time and money into the restoration of buildings such as 405 Franklin, Like the Franklin Art Gallery, most are incomplete, but construction is far enough along to give visitors a vision of final construction. 1 was told by Lalli that it was the coming of the downtown convention center that provided the boost necessary to reshape Allentown. He also noted that a Federal grant has been awarded for the future installation of cobblestone streets, gaslights, and horse-drawn carriages here. Allentown will soon resemble what Buffalo looked like during the lives and times of some of its most prominent citizens and visitors. Mark Twain once lived here; Teddy Roosevelt was inaugurated at the Old Wilcox Mansion in Allentwon on Delaware Avenue. The facelift of the properties is as much an artistic achievement as the work represented in the galleries.and the architecture of its structures, f ranklin Street is fast becoming the “Fair Franklin” once again. j Monday, Oct. 25 at 11 am Norton Union room 231, with local media, pertaining to Voters Education.

She lolls for students around the country who pay anywhere from S40 to SI00 in deposit fees for new telephone service. These extravagant payments are no indication, however, of any financial distress in Ma Bell's kitchen. American Telephone and Telegraph (AT&T) reported net earnings of SI.01 billion for the past three months, a record rivaled only by the Exxon Corporation. The Bell'system has — already received approval for 32 regional increases so far this year which will provide S641 million in added revenue. offer little These figures comfort to the student dealing with the phone company for the first time.

Most of the politicking is left to student hacks, the future ward leaders and state senators, who are laying roots for their own careers. The camaraderie and idealism o( 1968 and 1972 is gone, there’s not the unity that brought 40,000 youths together to work for George McGovern in the 72 New York primary. Jimmy Carter enlisted just 400 students for the same effort in ’76. The few youths that are involved in the national election this year keep lonely hours at studen( ypion a hawking occasionally booths. campaign bumpersticker or bending some patient passerby s - - - Pragmatic reasons According to pollster Peter Hart, it s an election year that will find less than half the country’s registered voters traipsing to the polls, with an even lower percentage pegged tor those under thirty. “Students are campaigning for pragmatic reasons.” explained Doug Miller, a senior at the University of Chicago. “They realize it s the only presidential election in their four college years, and whole, the they want to get the experience. On the who gets anyone University of Chicago is apolitical, in the activities is involved in extracurricular minority here.” he continued. Despite the gloomy prospects ol making inroads on the student vote, both Carter and Ford youth the directors are at least making an ettoil to win reluctant voters. “Across the board, people are tor Carter oui enemy is apathy, not Gerald Ford, asseited Janet Oliver, of the Carter National Headquarters in and Atlanta. “Young people want integrity leadership, and they haven't seen it in their lifetime. They don't remember FDR and JFK. voter Oliver, who is directing a campus that registration blit/, and canvassing operation, feels — young people are led up with politicsand will be hard to reach, despite the fact that “Governor Carter has hud a terrific response at colleges and everywhere else." Cynicism Carolyn Booth. National Youth Director for,the Ford campaign, is more encouraged about getting the student vote to the polls. “There is tremendous support for Ford in the southern schools, and Wake Forest. Baylor and Notre Dame arc particularly strong.” she said. "The Republican college student who is registered is more likely to vote than other students." But if there’s support for either Ford or Carter at the college campuses, it’s certainly not out in the open. When students do speak about the election, it’s more likely to be a diatribe slashed with cynicism rather than admiration. The Michigan Daily editorialized that Ford kicking off his campaign at a college campus (University ol Michigan at Ann Arboi) is something the akin to Hiller making the first donation to Fold marked United Jewish Appeal.'

And although some students turn out for campaign appearances, the most prevailing attitude towards the election is pretty well summed said, up by a University of Oklahoma student who “Yeah. I saw Carter. He says what everyone wants to hear just like any politician would.” > - monthly charge as a deposit; Under federal law, telephone companies must pay interest on deposits and return them if the person has paid the telephone bill for nine months. In general, a student who gives a higher estimate of long distance or toll calls risks paying a higher deposit. One case in DeKalb involved a student who estimated she would make S40 worth of toll calls and was charged a SI00 deposit. When she returned with a lower estimate, she was charged a lower fee. At the Rochester Telephone Company, which is* not part of the Bell system, the situation is not much different. A series ol six questions is asked of a prospective phone owner which include name. address, employment and income Each of these when answered. quest ions receives either a negative or positive rating from the phone company. For example, it a person has lived at his or her residence for fewer than two years, this is a “negative" response according to the phone company. Full-time student' status is a "positive" answer. The only time student's deposit tee is a computed according to estimated long distance calls is it the student has never had phone service. A Rochester Telephone Company official said that college students arc treated the same way as residents. source data. A lot! The situation is different for the on-campus student at the University of Rochester who is, by virtue of living in the dormitories, automatically treated to a telephone, courtesy of Rochester Telephone's Centrex system serving the UR since 1967. The University of Rochester has agreed with the phone company to pay for campus phone service in one lump sum. When asked for an estimate of the sum, Mary Inis, a centrex operator at the University, could only say “it'sa lot!” with on-campus Students service are issued phone toll-billing numbers resembling credit card numbers at the beginning of the school year by Rochester Telephone. A student cannot elect to .have phone service shut off and in protest, several students turn in their cards each year. There are ways to avoid the deposit problems that are simply kept undter wraps. It a student has had Bell Service in another stale and maintained good credit, he or she should not be required to pay the deposit tee. And in most areas, one does not have to pay a deposit if someone else with.' working telephone service anywhere in the United States will agree to back up the new telephone owner if he or she defaults on payments. A letter of guarantee is required and must be signed by creditable friends or relatives. Some schools have tried innovative ways of dealing with the high cost of phone service. At Gustavus College in Minnesota, there is a college WATS (Wide Area Telephone Service) line that can be used after business hours to make long distance calls in stale. Students have access,to the line from 6 a m. to 8 a.m. and from 6 p.m. to midnight for five minutes each.

Education Department to get Buffalo women more involved in intrumural sports. It is the belief of Gary Montour, assistant director of intramural activities, that women may be reluctant to participate in sports activities because they feel intimidated by the presence of men. The answer may be the. exclusion of men from the Ketterpiller one night a week, a solution which will doubtless upset many of the men who use the ketterpiller on the regular basis. Wendy Baker and Nan Harvey, two physical education students, are presently making preparations for the first Women’s Night this year, scheduled for next or a Thursday. Ramifications In addition to involving women in intramural activities, the event will also aid Baker and Harvey in their study of collegiate sports. If the experiment is a success an effort will be made to organize women’s intramural tennis, basketball, badminton, volleyball, jogging and soccer It is not the first time an event of this type has been attempted in Buffalo. Last year’s Women’s Night met with strong protest from a number of male students. It was their contention that due to the small number of women taking advantage of the opportunity, the facility was n jt being utilized to its full advantage par in h in I. There are a lot of ramifications involved in getting women to ipate,” Montour said. “Men don’t understand why women are ted by their presence.

The two people in charge. Larry Wheeler and Steve Allen, are rather proud. “This year's referees are a very good crop.’ Allen said, “They’re more aware of the rules and exhibit better judgment. One of the reasons for the improvement is that each official must now first pass a competency test. The test asks questions about rules and officials’ duties, so anyone who actually reterees a game must be well aware of the rules governing intramural tootball. The test had not been administered in the past. Quality inspections Allen and Wheeler are constantly scouting officials, trying to weed out the poorer ones. Although they don l correct officials while the game is in progress, they do point out errors afterwards. “Consistency is the number one thing we look for,” Wheeler said. a play called one way “We want everybody to make the same calls way by other officials. called the same official should be by one Wheeler noted that most of the officials have been responsive to — Football schedule expan by Don Weiss Spectrum Staff Writer Intramural football expanded its schedule-fast week with many teams playing Saturday a'Mfthen again during the week, so a number of division leaders were able to gain ground on their division foes. In the Thursday 3:30 division at Amherst, the with a 26-0 Budsmen, as Parest Columbia victory over the quarterback John Friedman threw touchdown passes to Jimmy Sullivan and Larry Stoker, and also ran one in. Another game in that league saw the B.S.V. Panthers shut-out Tolchok 20-0 to tie Tolchok for second place. In the Tuesday 3:30 Main Street division, undefeated Quail beat Huth Road 25-6 to hold on to first place. Huth Road was ineffective on offense due to poor pass protection and the suspect arm of quarterback Jeff Jacobovitz. Barest 400’s moved into first place One-two punch Last year’s winners, the N.Y. Clits, continue to criticism cruise through their schedule. Last week, the Clits won by scores of 49-0 and 31 -0. The team feels they will go all the way and with Paul Dimiero at quarterback and Bobby Johnson at halfback, the Clits have possibly the best 1-2 combination on campus. Another team with a chance to win it all is QB 714. This past week, QB 714 beat the Poontangs 25-0, and the Sh. Panthers 24-0. QB 714 is led on defense by Jim Randall and Larry Wheeler. There doesn’t seem to be dn offensive line that can stop Randall from getting to the passer. On offense, an injury to regular quarterback Brian Rosenbloom hasn’t hurt QB at all.-Rich Gross has taken over the quarterback duties and has added more running to an already potent offense. 1 he recent acquisition of speedy Steve Silba at wide receiver has added yet another option to -their arsenal. This week, QB 714 faces the Bionic Man, led by quarterback Mike Betz, in a game that will decide the division winner. Many insiders feel that this team can beat QB 714, and this game should give the onlookers a preview of the playoffs. iliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiil Need Help With Writing? = = Come To THE WRITING PLACE Opening Allen acknowledged that there is no such thing as a perfect referee. “There’s no doubt the referees don’t see everything,” he said. “They’re them students, just like everyone else. And there are only two of they can’t cover the whole field.” On those occasions when the referees do miss a call, and sometimes when they make a correct call, they are often subject to abuse by the players. “The hardest thing for them to do is absorb abuse,” Wheeler said. Referee Bill Coomber said that when a player gets upset, he tries not to argue back, but if the players gets out of hand, Coomber tosses him out of the game. Allen added that most referees don’t get upset. “We’re used to it, and it’s expected,” Allen said. There are also a lot of said. gracious football players. “We get lots of compliments,” he Pro and Con Players’ opinions were mixed. One felt that officials were teiribly while inconsistent, saying one week a certain play deserved a penalty, the next week it didn’t. “They don t know the rules, he said.

Other students, who had cars, thought the new location would have to be an improvement over the present buildings, characterized as “firetraps” with poor heating or ventilation. One janitor claimed that the present facilities were adequate for several more years, and criticized the move to School 79 because “it would make this a white people’s college.” He claimed it would cost a lot of money to put in laboratories, parking lots, security fences and other equipment already at the present site.

(IRCB), the largest distributor of canned beverages on campus, is currently embroiled in a dispute with the returnable bottle committee of New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). The controversy concerns the sale of exclusively returnable . bottles at all IRCB operations, and comes at a time when Food Service is in the process of substituting the sale of metal cans with returnable bottles wherever possible. According to IRCB Director of his Koshar, Operations Brad organization faces two main obstacles to selling returnable bottles. First is the lack of space at IRCB facilities, especially at Main Street and Governors’ Residences. Bottles require the use of additional space, which, is not according to Koshar, available. Second, Koshar stressed that at present no “student demand” has been expressed concerning the issue. ' IRCB - no effort - But Lynne Seeger and John Ziegler, coordinators of the bottle bill committee, feel that IRCB “just does not want to bother and make an effort to deal with the problems they that are encountering.” This is compared to the cooperation Seeger and Ziegler have received from Food and • its parenf organization, the Faculty Student Service, Association (I SA). They first approached FSA last spring, presenting petitions and letters of support from the In University community. addition, they presented a survey that found support student heavily in favor of the use of returnable bottles “even if they might cost a few cents more than non-returnable containers sold off campus.” During the summer, I'SA appointed a subcommittee to study the question of returnable bottles. The committee members decided to conduct a market in selling, experiment possible, wherever returnable bottles instead of cans. This would include only a fraction of Pood Service’s total sale of beverages. Only the Kathskellar and the Student Pub woidd participate in the test, and only twenty percent of the drinks served there would be affected since soda, coffee and milk arc generally served in disposable containers or cups, and make up the bulk of the beverages there. Additionally. served Vending Service, which sells the overwhelming, bulk of canned beverages on campus, would not be changed due to the high cost of converting its machines. The continuance or expansion of the returnable bottle experiment is, in any case, contingent upon student response.

But just because IRC'B has such a large operation, converting to to returnable bottles “would just pul an extra burden on our facilities and workers,” according to a June memorandum. .The same memorandum cites other concerns including handling costs, the hazardous nature of glass bottles, student cooperation, and the need for additional space and cooling equipment, all of which bring Buffalo community.''

' �Stresses involvement Clark speaks in Norton Clark Can't be too romantic for Carter —Mondale While riding with Ramsey Clark to Democratic Headquarters in downtown Buffalo, I mentioned that many spectators doubted Clark’s loyalty to Carter because of the “unenthusiastic speaking nature he displayed in the speech. Clark reminded me that he is known for his low key approach to public speaking and added that some observers feel “the more unenthusiastic I seem, the more dedicated I usually am.” Continuing our journey, I mentioned the independent candidacy of Eugene McCarthy and whether Clark had considered supporting McCarthy since both of their ideologies and perceptions of issues seem closer to each other than those of Carter. Clark replied that he ha'd considered such a choice but in the long run found it hard to take McCarthy for real. “You can’t be completely romantic in these things. I don’t know how well Gene would serve as President,” he said. by Rich Steir Spectrum Staff Writer Ramsey Clark told 200 people in Haas Lounge Monday morning that the way to make a difference in this year’s presidential election is to vote for Jimmy Carter. Clark is best known nationally for his service as Attorney General during the Johnson Administration. But among New York voters he may be better known for his attempts to capture a Senate seat in 1974 and in the recently past Democratic Senatorial primary. In 1974, when running against incumbent Republican Senator Jacob Javits, Clark made an impressive showing but finally lost to Javits by a very slim margin. In the recent Democratic Senatorial primary, many political analysts attributed Clark’s defeat to the candidacy of Representative Bella Abzug or vjce versa. Many members of the audience assumed Clark’s appearance in Haas Lounge would concern the current Senate race between Buckley and Monyihan, but Clark was in fact appearing as a supporter of the Carter-Mondale ticket. In complete darkness To give me an example of why he felt this way, Clark told of an incident involving McCarthy. “I walked into his office one time and saw him sitting in his chair, the door closed and the lights out, sitting in his chair thinking in complete darkness.” Clark said he was never “offered a job in the Carter administration” and was unsure if he would accept one if it were offered. He already has served in an adminijftration hut “might accept a position if it was important enough and instrumental in bringing about change.” Clark mentioned that McGovern had asked Support for Carter Most of the people interviewed in Haas Lounge before Clark appeared were interested in why Clark decided to actively support the Carter ticket. “I worked for Clark during the Senatorial primaries. 1 can’t imagine him pro-Carter. 1 would guess the reason Clark is supporting Carter is because he is anti-Ford and pro-Mondale,” one of — the spectators said. Clark began his speech by discussing “involvement.” He felt the best way to express-your own views and/or initiate change, was to get involved. Clark reminded the audience of his involvement during the Democratic. Presidential primaries when he was a supporter of Morris Udall. “I was a Udall delegate from New York and voted for Udall on the first ballot at the convention,” he said. His intense feeling for the need of involvement in initiating change is his main reason for supporting Carter. House’s ! I I .

The Crisis Douglas impeachment The role Ford played in the impeachment proceedings against Justice Douglas was described with contempt by Clark. Douglas was held in very high esteem for his role as “initiator of civil rights and change in America.” Due to Ford’s role in the proceedings, justices to this day think twice before “initiating change,” Clark said. Ford’s leading role disgusted Clark that he concluded, “You must learn the lessons of history or you learn to repeat them.” In further discussion of the chfferences between the two candidates, Clark mentioned the military budget. On this topic, which Clark considers very important, Ford shows no evidence that he would control the military budget, while Carter “shows a leaning towards budget cuts, no matter ho\y vague he may seem.” Explaining his support for Carter, Clark maintained, “1 don’t encourage people to party loyalty, I believe in principle.” He felt that boycotting the election “is a mistake,” insisting, “if you want to change, you have to go in and struggle for it.” 3234 MAIN STREET \ 1 Near Winspear 832 6666 | him if he was interested in becoming Attorney General or Director of the FBI in a McGovern Administration. In the moment after he told me this, visions of what would have happened if McGovern was elected in 1972 instead of Nixon along with the perspective ideologies displayed by the FBI (Hooverism) compared with that of the “progressive” or “liberal” views of Clark, promptly made me laugh. Clark, possibly realizing what I was thinking, turned towards me and we both laughed together. Crangle, the Village Eventually the car reached Democratic Headquarters in the downtown section where Clark talked with Democratic workers including “the boss,” Joe Crangle. up On the way from Democratic Headquarters to Clark’s next speaking engagement at Erie Community College, we talked briefly about Crangle. I expressed my views about Crangle and concluded by saying, “I just don’t like power politics.” At this, Clark turned and smiling said, “I should sure hope so.” But Clark continued by asserting, “Even though Joe Crangle is a power politician, this is the only way Joe Crangle feels an effective organization should be run.” He further stated that Crangle is a very dedicated individual as well as being a fine person and dedicated family man.” We finally arrived at the Erie Community College campus where Clark spoke in front of a small audience. Afterwards, he made more appearances in Buffalo, then on to Albany, and finally back to New York City. Sunshine House. :r~ Hoover and Roosevelt Clark said the similarities between this year’s election and that of past elections showed that a vote for Carter could initiate change. In reflecting on the election of between Hoover and Roosevelt, Clark perceived the voters as viewing Hoover as a "decent man” and Roosevelt as an “opportunist, who was governor of New York for only a short time.” As history has proven, a vote for the “opportunist” Roosevelt did indeed initiate change. Turning to the 1960 election between Kennedy and Nixon, the former Attorney General associated the campaign of Carter with that of Kennedy, and Ford with Nixon. Kennedy, he explained, was a man who was never very effective in the Senate and Nixon had experience. But the Kennedy victory did bring about change in America. So, he reasoned, Roosevelt and Kennedy, probably the two best known Democratic presidents for initiating change, were similar to Carter as Hoover and Nixon were similar to Ford. Clark then went on to orchestrate the differences between Carter and Ford. He said, “There is a difference.

Presidential candidate of the Communist Parity, said Wednesday that all of our nation's social needs could lie met by tapping the profits of large corporations and the military budgets Hall, a founding member of the United Steel Workers of America, spoke to over 150 students in the Conference Theater as part of his bid to wfn for the Communist Parts ticket. "A vote for the Communist Party is the strongest protest vote you can make." Mall asserted. Mall concedes that he and his running male. Jarvis Tyner, aren’t going to be elected. But he believes that the Communist election platform will stimulate discussion on important issues. “The two major candidates don’t discuss any issues." Mall charged. It’s been a campaign of "trivialities, apologies for trivialities, and retractions of trivialities.” In his 40-minute talk, highlighted by humorous stories. Mall blasted both the Republican and Ddnocractic parlies for being bought and controlled by big business. Me added that minority candidates have no choice of being elected under present election laws and procedures. Mall said both l ord and Carter believe "bigger and bigger profits” are necessary. that the Communists proceed from the "opposite position." Specifically. Mall called for the 6-hour work day with ho loss in pay to create "10 million jobs" for The unemployed. "There is a slowly groWirtg sector of permanently unemployed.” Mall explained, which will continue to grow if fundamental changes aren’t made.. “The cities are tailing apart."

Tax loopholes Mall said that SfOO billion could be obtained for social services from tax loopholes, hven though Ford and Carter talk about closing them, they won’t, maintain Mall, because both have been financed by corporations employing tax loopholes. Mall urged the nationalization of the. energy industry, “from the oil well to the gas pump.” During the question and answer period. Hall was asked why the Communist Party program doesn’t talk about socialism or revolution. “Socialism is not on the agenda in this election.” Mall answered. The conditions necessary for a transition to socialism are not present today in the United States. Mall said, so to put forward a program for socialism now wouldn’t be understood by most people. “We are for socialism." Mall said, and "I have talked about socialism many times.” But the way to build towards that situation is for the Communist Party to fight for reforms now. “We are us revolutionary as the objective conditions allow us to be,” Hall said, "doing beyond this, and skipping stages, would only result in rhetoric,” he added. “People will try every possibility for reform before they come to the realiation that a revolutionary transformation to socialism is necessary.” Asked if the Communist Party is independent of the Soviet Communist Party, Hall said it was. There is no international communist delegations from many organization, he explained, although Communist parties meet with one another to discuss wide ranging problems. He said tlicit the Communist Party, U.S.A., was bcyn in. and had its roots in. America, and that the idea of an international communist conspiracy is myth. He said that he is constantly under pressure from anti-communists to “find a difference with the Soviet Union" jn order to show his independence. But Half said he will support the policies of the Soviet Union when he thinks they are correct, and will disagree with them when he thinks they are incorrect. POSITION AVAILABLE U.U.A.B.

Paqe five �CFC in Fargo To the Editor The position of Clifford Furnas regarding UUAB Coffeehouses being held in Fargo Cafeteria was distorted and oversimplified in the article and editorial which appeared in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum. Clifford Furnas College students do not object to UUAB Coffeehouses in Fargo simply because CFC would be losing “a study hall and living room” in our dorm. The Fargo Cafeteria is the site of almost all of the College’s informal academic activities this semester; to whit: 20 Wine and Cheese Seminars, with various faculty members and outstanding persons from the Buffalo community meeting groups of CFC members for lectures and discussions. 8 College Dinners with faculty guests (most of which take place on Fridays immediately prior to the Coffeehouses). The One-To-One program, which involves CFC students interacting on a one-or two-to-one basis with 50-60 retarded children. CFC Events for Senior Citizens Program. Events Special such as watching the Presidential debate this Friday with Dr. Goldhaber, a College Fellow. r The Cafeteria is the site of all CFC College it is the only place in Fargo large enough meetings to hold the approx. 400 members of CFC. The Cafeteria is where the majority of CFC social events take place, many of which happen on a Friday night. This semester we have held parties and a coffeehouse there on Friday nights. Other social events we’ve held in the cafeteria include ah ice cream social and pancake and bagel breakfasts. Granted, some of these events (except College Dinners, CFC Coffeehouses, Talent Shows gnd Parties) do not take place on Friday nights, but they do demonstrate that to CFC members, the cafeteria is more than a “study hall.” This is where the conflict lies: we do not necessarily object to UUAB Coffeehouses being held in Fargo, but we wish we had been informed of UUAB’s plans and consulted about the proposed wall. Instead, the college was confronted with the specter of a permanent wall dividing Eargo from its cafeteria, and the elimination of Friday nights from the CFC events calendar. Our only recourse was to protest the Coffeehouses and the wall, since we had no previous input during the planning stages. 1 hope this makes the issue here more apparent than Monday’s Spectrum did. Many CFC students would welcome a Coffeehouse downstairs from their rooms. We have shared Fargo Cafeteria with many other campus organizations. But we will not assent to being locked out of Fargo cafeteria arbitrarily on Friday nights. And we are totally opposed to any permanent wall in our living space which would segregate the cafeteria from the rest of. Fargo. It is a shame that the situation reached this point; an early telephone call to the master or staff of CFC when this was in the works would have enabled both UUAB and CFC to plan and schedule events with Guest Opinion Libertarian Party statement - by William Barzel - At the end of September, the 1976 Libertarian Party National Convention was held in Washington, D.C. attended by over 600 delegates, which was quite a difference from the two dozen individuals who formed the party five years ago in a Colorado Springs apartment. In the 1972 presidential election only Washington and Colorado had the Libertarian Party on the ballot, but it made third place in the electoral vote (521 Republican, 17 Democrat and 1 Libertarian). At this writing it is on the ballot in 33 states, including New York and California which more than any other party McCarthy didn’t make except the two major ones. Besides a presidential candidate, Roger MacBride, there are about 220 people running on the Libertarian ticket for various offices in 25 states. Libertarianism was formulated by John Locke, Herbert Spencer, and John Stuart Mill. Though in the party itself there are Hie two extreme wings (objectivists of Ayn Rand’s school and the anarcho-capitalists of ' Stirner’s school), most libertarians simply want to minimize government interference and maximize individual liberty. Their premise is that an individual is an end in him or herself, and “the sole legitimate owner of his or her life free to do with that life whatever he or she wishes” as long as he doesn’t use coersion against another individual. They follow Jefferson’s maxim that the best government is that which governs least. The 1976 Libertarian Party platform favors the repeal of all laws dealing with the so-called they want to repeal laws “victimless crimes” regarding consensual sexual relations including prostitution; they want to end state harassment of homosexuals; repeal laws restricting the sale and use of marijuana and drugs whether they be medicine, vitamins, or pleasure drugs;and also want immediate freedom to those people incarcerated for these “crimes.” Besides, they want to end government interference in education, social security, medical care, welfare, energy and the so-called “consumer - feach other in mind. Beth McQuay CFC Academic Resident Advisor The Spectrum big business corporate socialism we have now.” They want to abolish government subsidies, economic controls, and eventually eliminate taxes which are viewed as a form of coersion. The only function of government, they see, is to protect property rights, adjudicate disputes, and provide a legal framework in which voluntary trade is protected. The Libertarian Party is the only one running which wants a non-intervensionist foreign policy. The United States should be able to defend itself against foreign agression, but should not meddle in foreign disputes. Individuals should have the right to unrestrictive travel and immigration, and contact between countries would be left solely to individuals who would bear full responsibility for risks involved in foreign investments or foreign ventures. Libertarians also call for immediate independence to U.S. colonial dependencies including Puerto Rico and Guam. They feel the United States should withdraw from the United Nations and from all alliances of “collective security.” The .presidential candidate for the Libertarian Party is Roger MacBride, a graduate of Princeton and Harvard Law, a former Vermont legislators lawyer, businessman, farmer and television producer. He is also the author of two nooks on constitutional and treaty law. On October 17th, MacBride is scheduled to appear on Meet the Press. Libertarians say that the idea of the party is to growing number of libertarian (Association for Rational Environmental Alternatives, Alliance of Libertarian Feminists, Libertarians for Gay Rights, Society for Individual Liberty, etc.) in spreading the idea of libertarianism. At the 1976 convention, Robert Meier, chairman of the MacBride for President Committee, said, “We’re about the business of building a major political force in the United States.” And in recent years, more and more libertarian thinkers are becoming prominent: F.A. Hayek Won the 1974 Nobel Prize for economics, Bob Nozick won the National Book Award for philosophy for his book Anarchy, State and Utopia, protection Also regarding civil liberties, the platform calls and at present there are about 10,000 members of for the aboliton of such secret police agencies as the the Libertarian Party.

Hopkins Special to The Spectrum What does one say upon, dealing with miracles that are, in growth, as perpetual as the beauty of truths within? For McCoy Tyner, master of improvisational piano and co-leader of a sextet of masters, the language and the miracle is music. "Music allows me to travel in other areas of creation," he told me. The man knows. In, not to, subconsciously saying that we're there if we just dare and open ourselves to be. The prime forces of Creation and Being came to unleash the day of October 15, 1976. The day has never been quite as clear. First cane Gerry Niewood and his group Timepiece, who were good, playing with much intensity in the obvious knowledge of who would be next. The intensity, however, was unfocused. Though the ensemble passages on the themse Were crisp, much of the soloing was not. Bass player Jeff Berlin tried too often to imitate rather than interpret Stanley Clarke, and bogged himself down in repitition. Niewood, his voice still delving from the Mangione school, was nice, though he did not come off interpreting Charlie Parker as well as he thought he did on the final tune of the set. Drummer Ron Davis and Vibist David Sammuels did well, such as Bobby Hutcherson, Kirk, or the Shaw, Rahsaan Roland Woody aforementioned here with McCoy's group as an ensemble, gathered to work okuchambra. Yeah. The moment The bad accoustics didn’t help, though here they proved to be only an obstancle to be overcome by genius, and I fail to understand how one "critic" in this city's Evening News could rjghteously protest the lack of proper accoustics yet miss (or minimize) how the beauty created by Mr. Tyner's sextet overpowered any negative aspects. Except one's own blocked visions. People who are there and are paid to know should. Or maybe that's obvious, huh? Anyway the moment came. McCoy; reedsman Joe Ford, co-founder of Buffalo's brilliant birthright; reedsman Ron Bridgewater, bassist Charles Famborough, drummer Eric Gravatt, percussionist and Nommo invoker Guilherme Franco. Each member of the Sextet is a Master of The (For Music. Together they are supreme. They are Resident Jazz the meaing of this, check your RJT Terminology, consisting of words taken out of context to make Fonzie, Welcome Bac(< Kotter writers and pseudo rock groups rich. Not to mention disco kriscoD If this sounds emotional and non-objective, one should be advised that, contrary to certain ivory towered individuals teaching numbered obscurity, objectivity means reality, and anyone who has heard McCoy or Joe or any of these people know the reality of this statement. Anyone who heard them in this concent know. The opening tune "Theme For Dulcimer" (from the upcoming LP Focal Point, as was much of the set) sets the scene. McCoy opens the tune on dulcimer (a guitar-sitar oriented instrument) accompanied by Guilherme on tabla in beautiful Eastern classical stylistics. The rest of the group joins in as the band erupts from the sun and earth in a union of all roots. Charles moves with the Music like a snake charmer warping the evil of dormancy into something vibrant and positive to live. His bass sound at times quotes McCoy and is at all times robust in delicacy, as well as sheer power. The same may be said for Eric & Guilherme, powering the group with everchanging patterns of rhythm that displace the night and bring magicks of drum and Afro IndioLatin fire into focus. Mr. Franco calls to the spirits through congas, shells, recorders, tambourine with conga sounds, and the common aspects of nature - harnessed in uncommon spontaniety aand skill. Ron issues forth a blistering sound luscious in total truth, and a mesmerizing drone setting beautiful counterpatterns for the Music. Magic music Joe. For all the magnificent playing that Birthright has ever done, I have never heard anyone do it the way Joe does, and especially this night. He has palyed a flute for only a year, which is like Trane playing Ole after a year on sporano. Yes\ His alto, heard especially on "Fly With the Wind," smokes with trumpet high tone and tenor depth. His soprano sings. Anyone hearing Joe knows it's more than a case of local setting breaks. Joe's the Cat! Doing it with the Cat in the company of Cats. Panthers stalking the bad beat. McCoy. There's the pervasive power of his arranging. The eerie, floating recorder chant by McCoy, Joe, and Guilherme, along with the piano solo preluding "Fly With the Wind," are masterpieces. His stylistics increase with each breath and each movement of his fingers nimbly dancing across the realms of imagination unlocking keys. The moment came. And held. It will probably hold even forever in awe Earlier, McCoy spoke along with pianist Steve Kuhn in an interview with John Hunt and Yvonne Price of UB's radio WBFO. Responding to a point made by Mr. Hunt on the subject of being a purist, McCoy clarified his stand . . .

As everyone files to their seats in preperation for the opening song, I and wonder how this concert will compare to his summer warm-up stint for Starship in the Convention Center. That was one of those 45-minute rush sets during which he was never given time to develop himself. Now he was headlining in someplace other than an "acoustic nightmare" the Century Theater and the crowd vyas his and no one else's. A few people in the orchestra pit are the first to see him enter the stage and they immediately rise to their feet. They've seen Billy Joel before. The majority of the audience follows suit and Joel receives his first standing pvation. The theme song coming from the speakers is now an inaudible cacophony as rivers of raw emotion flow from the audience; staining the upholstery. A spotlight pierces the darkness giving witness to Joel, hunched over his piano, punching rapid stacatto' bars on ivory. Overhead, drummer Liberty DeVitto, wearing a black racing glove on his left hand, speed drums in unison. It's "Angry Young Man" and the audience explodes, releasing the anticipation that they've had bottled up for weeks. bass, Howie The musicians, Doug Stegmeyer Emerson —. guitar, Russ Javers acoustic guitar keyboards and sax, as well as Rich Cannata DiVitto were also with Joel in the summer and are the back up crew on "Turnstiles." Throughout the evening, this group played with a tightness and accuracy not to be surpassed by any live Richie Furay doesn't bring the adjective "legendary" to the minds of most. But, if audiences weren't as fickle as they ususally are, and if seniority were a genuine criterion in deciding appeal, Furay would surely have the status of an Elton John. At the very least, Furay is one of country-rock.'s elder statesman. But, as evidenced by his performance October 14 at the Century, he is much more. Since as of late, Furay has turned to Jesus.as a source of guidance in his life, one might have gopd reason to expect him to select many songs from his album of that theme, I've Got a Reason. Instead, he relied heavily on the work, of his past bands. "Failin' In Love" was the opener,'the hit single from Souther Hillman Furay, the last act Furay was involved in before pursuing a solo career. A pre fab supergroup formulated by David Geffen, SHF mystified the entire world of music by failing to click. But Furay has drawn the best moments of his contribution to that group for the tour. "Believe Me," also drawn from that album, was done beautifully, With pianist Tom Stipe playing as well as keyboard whiz Paul Harris did on the original recording. Mexican Connection;" it's — — — — performance. "The Yankees are winning 4-3!" The crowd, mainly comprised of SUNY at Buffalo students from New York City, roars. Joel leans back from his piano and one of a number of amusing interludes begins. "This is a true story. Some people.think I a lot of bullshit. Although, there's nothing wrong with creative bullshit." He then goes on preparing the audience for the song, explaining the atmosphere that prompted him to write it. "It was an executive lounge. You know, the kind with top hat and champagne glass on the marquee." With this, he began playing his modern-day classic, "Piano Man," which lead the spellbound audience through an excursion of the early days of his piano bar life. But there was more to this song than its popularity and AM notoriety. This was the reason all of this was happening: the sellout crowd, the well-defined Joel following, the respect given a headlining musician. Just call it success, if you will. The song ended to another rousing ovation. Joel then made his way to an electric piano and the real fun began. "I met my old friend on the street last night ." It was an identical imitation of Paul Simon's "Still Crazy After All These Years." He followed this with an equally hysterical Joe Cocker imitation. 'This was followed by a song off the new "Turnstiles" album called "James." This song, along with other favorites such as "The Ballad of Billy the Kid," "Traveling Prayer," and "The Entertainer" insure Joel's position as the master of song-writing realism and place him high on the list of contemporary rock minstrels . . The Latest Rage! INSTANT ORIENTAL ■hhhjli ijt NOODLES Much of his work is autobiographical ("Piano Man," "The Entertainer") and almost all of it has some kind of outlook on life. "Captain Jack," for example, is Long Island as he saw it from a window one day. "New York State of Mind" is the romanticist's view of The City, and, although all of his compositions were performed well, this one seemed to be one of the highpoints of the evening, featuring a powerfully bluesy sax solo by Rich Cannata. It seems that Joel has been heavily influenced by his home town and the audience, many of whom had identical roots, quickly identified with these pieces. His selection of songs came from his three major selling records, Piano Man, Streetlife Serenade, and Turnstiles. He didn't perform any material off his first, rather obscure album, "Cold Springs Harbor." The majority of his two-hour set (which included four encores) was songs off the Piano Man (everything except "Stopln Nevada"), but the pinnacle of his performance came prior to his other AM hit, "The Entertainer." • • It was a satirical routine cutting down glitter rockers, especially the kind that milk applause from the audience all eveing. "It's an old trick. Mozart used it. 'Come ve vill And in spoofing the Midnight clap our hands ja.' Special, Joel pulled an excellent Wolfman Jack imitation from his bag of tricks and followed by saying he wouldn't mind doing the show gs long as they "Keep that mother away from me." All in all, this proved to be an overwhelming performance that came as somewhat of a pleasant surprise, this being Joel's first top-bill presentation in Buffalo. He played his best material, exhibiting a mastery of the piano unsurpassed by any rock musician and the sum total was a fantastic set which encouraged the audience to let it loose. And let it loose is what they did. When Joel finally finished, after his fourth encore, he left the stage, leaving behind a thoroughly satisfied capacity crowd with a taste of class musicianship. The Entertaineer is a title that is, if anything, an underestimation of this Non-hit medley I. was hoping for a bit of Buffalo Springfield, and Furay obliged first with "On The Way Home,” a Neil Young composition. Furay sang most of the lead vocals on Young's tunes while the Springfield was together, and this is probably the most famous of the numbers. "Mighty Maker," "Gettin' Through," and "Look at the Sun" from Richie's current work were all performed with polish, but the most electrifying part of his whole performance was an amazing string of non hits performed medley fashion. These were non-hits in that none of them was ever released as a single. Beginning with "Sad Memory," one of the most obscure Buffalo Springfield songs, Furay gave us a guided topr through his whole career. We got "Child's Claim to Fame," "C'.mon, Just For Me and You," and "Picin' Up the Pieces" all in rapid succession. And he did play "Good Feelin' to Know," a tune sorely missed during the few performances Souther, Hillman, and Furay managed to stage. It has often been sard that Furay was more than the leader of Poco; rather he was Poco. And this is certainly true: he sang Paul Cotton's "Bad Weather" and Jim Messina's "You Better Think Twice" with as much feeling as if they were his own. It was magical when Furay performed "Kind Woman" for his encore, the last song the Springfield recorded before the band dissolved. And Furay's voice that sweet, high tenor that blended so well with Stephen Stills' in 1966, was in perfect shape, the very high notes easily within his reach. There was no Neil Young, Stephen Stills, or Jim Messina at the Century Thursday night. But Furay was an integral a member of any band as the above giants, and to see him so easily capture the crowd was a pleasant change from the surly reaction usually relegated the warmup act. Maybe a huge comeback is on its way.

Located at 493 Franklin Street in an aging office building, the gallery features several studios, two galleries, and a lounge area. Although located on "Gallery Row," the Wilde diners from its neighbors. director Webber, Ran of Gallery Wilde, envisions his gallery as a local art network, dependent upon the efforts of community and volunteer input, as well as the diversity of artists who choose to use the facilities. As the gallery becomes more settled, Webber dreams of a bookstore, cafe, video presentations, jazz and poetry workshops, as well as a sculpture roof-garden and street theater. He his are plans feels that the flavor he of representative would like to see Gallery Wildie acquire, that of a freewheeling to approach interdisciplinary community involvement in the arts. Webber cites the example of CERA, a gallery able to carry out several varied programs, classes, On Friday and Saturday, October 22 and 23, the UUAB Video Committee will present Earth Atrophy, a multi-media event featuring audio poetry and theatrics by Stephen Parr, video by Steven Keeler, film by Steven Panyioto, and photography/si ides by Thomas Halstead. It will take place at 8 and 10 p.m. at Gallery 219, 219 Norton Union. By projecting a 360-degree sphere of multiple image sequences in various time-space relationships. Earth Atrophy will create a single cohesive multi-media presentation. Through combinations of Super-8 film, infra-red slides, and various videotape techniques, an environmental sphere of imagry will be created. The audio portion includes previously recorded material by various artists blended and juxtaposed into a thirty-two minute piece and will be presented in a three-channel sound format. The subject matter, theme "Earth Atrophy" deals with a Westernized concept of our planet's departure from the Piscean into the upcoming Aquarian Age. This metamorphosis will be enacted through the use of sound displays, plus a live theatre-poetry reading. Earth Atrophy will be the first in a series of productions sponsored by the UUAB Video Committee and will be the first presentation in Gallery 219. Admission is free to all, but donations to help defray production expenses will be accepted at the door. and activities, aided by their numerous volunteers. Volunteers are needed of course, due partly to the financial hassles which have beleagured the independent artists at Gallery Wilde, who support the gallery with funds from rented space as well as their own captial. Although the idea of the gallery was concieved two years prior to its inception, it seems apparent that Webber did not study the "Business" end too thoroughly, particularly the chapter on bulk rate postage. With grand plans looming for the future, the gallery is faced' with possible lawsuits, threatened by a rival gallery which is not too eager to see a bustling arts center at doors other than its However, Webber is own. confident that Gallery Wilde will be able to carry out its scheduled plans for this year, as well as one person exhibits similar to the one currently on display. filter in, causing an effect of shadow to prevail over reality, which is the artist's intention. This'current exhibit features Surreal figure Present in many of Sodervick's paintings are spirit-like figures, bizarre beings who seem to eminate from the ground, wildly searching for a place to hide before sunlight. These people underscore the surreal qualities of fantasy which Sodervick feels are a part of this time. In one painting, these figures appear to be revealing before a scene of a valley at down, painted in colors ranging from peach gray to dusty blues. The composition of the painting, and its intriguing lighting provide an unexpected quality, which is the result of Sodervick's mesh of styles the landscape, real with impressionistic colors, and surreal figures. When these elements are presented in a satisfying manner, are successful. the paintings However, as all 21 paintings deal with one basic theme, there are bound to be arrangements which simply do not work. But on the whole, Sodervick's paintings are a vastly interesting, and unique collection. The exhibit closes November 20. The hours of Gallery Wilde are Tuesday through Sunday 1,-6 p.m. If you're interested in helping the gallery carry out its plan to fruition, speak to Director Ran Webber, or his assitant Dale. They will be pleased to talk with the work of Bruce Sodervick, a painter who is an Assistant Professor of Fine Arts at the Rochester I nstitute of Technology, and whose paintings have been included in more than 40 exhibits. The exhibition of twenty-one by unified are paintings and exploration Sodervick's expression of a singular concept, that of the vaguely surreal time of dawn, at which a tenuous, fleeting balance exists between the forces of moonlight, and sunlight, or simply night and day. It is a fascinating, somewhat eerie time to explore, and Sodervick does so, using reflective surfaces such as water, mirrors, or imaginary walls to portray the possibilities of this "in-between" time. In "An Ohio Morning" we view a sunrise scene, but one with Sodervick's interpretation. In one corner is the moon, and in the dawn, painted in other is turbulent, though muted shades of gray and green.

(any size) Prodigal Sui �"Marathon Man' Violent and bloody thriller by Eileen Schlesinger Composition Editor Upon reaching the Holiday One Theater this past Thursday evening, I was excited at the New Bergman film Ullmcm brilliant in Tace to Face' of once again seeing a "thriller." I envisioned a film filled subtle suspense, with by Bill Maraschiello foreshadowing, mysterious women, and glassy-eyed madmen. I was unprepared to witness the prolonged bloodbath which dominated the viewing time of The peculiar cross that a master must bear is that after he or she has proven to be a master, it must be reproven again and again with each subsequent work. Consistent genius is something that very few people are willing to concede; whether it's because we need to know that everyone can make a mistake (i.e, "I'm not the only one who does"), or has some other cause, I can't say. Ingmar Bergman must, by now, be driving the seekers after perfectionism up the proverbial wall, because he has consistently provided just that. I sincerely believe that every film he has made in the past twebty years has been as close to perfect in its achievement as makes no difference, and that Akira Kurosawa is his only serious challenger for the title of the world's greatest living director. Yet Bergman, who has transcended cinema cult boundaries to become one of the most famous of filmmakers, has drawn charges of inaccessibility; despite being male,, he has made the most mature and serioud films in existence about the female consciousness, but has been called a sexist. And Bergman's latest film, Face to Face, though unanimous praise has been given to Liv Ullmann's portrayal (she can be permitted not to make mistakes, having not been making them for only a few years), has suffered potshots for being obscure, talky, and especially for being concerned with Bergman's own problems. prospect Marathon Man. Based on the novel by William Goldman, the John Schlesinger film opens in Manhattan with what appears to be a pointless game of bumper-cars between two old men. As the game grows more and more vicious, a car radio blares out news of murder and coal mine disaster. When the two cars collide with an oil truck, everything explodes, fulfilling the of prophecy disaster . and triggering the violence which continues until the final scene. Suddently, we see Dustin Hoffman, out for hiadaily 26 mile run; he catches sight of the flames, stops, and runs on. Again, the scene changes and we are in Paris, witnessing a bombing in a Paris street, a murder at L'Opera, and an attempted murder in a luxurious hotel room. These crimes are all aimed at an unnamed victim Devane), (William and all committed by a typical oriental killer-type, complete with piercing eyes and a demonic grin. Intrigue Meanwhile, back in Manhattan, Hoffman is shown to be a brilliant student, history plagued by memories of his late father (a suicide victim of the McCarthy era), and obssessed by visions of a long dead marathon runner, Hoffman, whose name appears to be "Babe," is constantly running from the fears which possess him, nd towards fate a which he Arts Editor knows nothing about. The audience, entangled in this knot of disconnected. events, cannot predict the protagonists future, nor can they understand his past. What does Dustin Hoffman have to do with the Paris intrigue? Who really is Elsa (Marthe Keller), his mysterious Swiss lover? Why is Laurence Olivier shaving his head? And, most importantly, when will this movie start to make some sense? Finally, the connecting thread is revealed. Doc, (Deuane) whose life was threatened in Paris is brutally murdered while visiting his brother Babe (Hoffman). We know he was onto something, but haven't any idea what, whom, or why . . . etc. As Doc expires in a pool of blood on Babe's apartment floor, the government agent Janeway enters, claiming to know the answers 'So that's it! companion and I muttered to each other, our hopes for a resolution UUAB FILM COMMITTEE renewed.

An ex-Nazi torturer who extorted millions of dollars worth of diamonds from his victims, Szell has returned to America to collect his riches and, ironically, sell them to the Jewish diamond of merchants New York. Relentless and ruthless, Olivier played this satanic creature with all the expertise which a master has at his command. When the scenes with Hoffman and Olivier together are contrasted with the ■remainder of thtJilm, they flash brilliantly, like the fateful diamonds which cause so much destruction.

Marathon Man was above all, suspenseful, and if you don't mind the blood, it could be fun. audience's desire commentary, but Prodigal Sun for most The self and others What the nay sayers are attempting to do, of course, is to chide Bergman for what they see as using a film studio to resolve his own neuroses. If it were simply a matter of self indulgence, I would agree with them, but nothing could be further from the truth. Bergman clearly knew that basing a film on personal experience would have'to run the risk of inaccessibility. In a letter to his cast and . . for some time now I have been living crew, he acknowledged that with an anxiety that has had no tangible cause.” But he also referred to a woman of his acquaintance who had undergone similar difficulties, “with the exception that her situation was more-obvious and explicit, and much more painful." What resulted was "a film which, in a way [italics added] is about an attempted suicide" that of Dr. Jenny Isaksson (Ullman). She has a good job, a decent marriage, a daughter, a lover or two. Hers is the kind of life where a suicTde attempt is least understandable to the mind. Yet Bergman.knows that the anguish is not in her mind, but in her heart and soul; that there are subtle barriers in her marriage, in her dealings with her friends and her patients. Liv Ullmahn shares this knowledge. What results is an exceedingly rare feat a collaborative brilliance linking Bergman's and Ullmann's dead-center perceptions and their faultless knowlege and control of their skills as filmmaker and — — — actress. Strange interludes We can see the sources of Ullmann's anguish: the shallow socializing of a modern party and its ambisexual playmates; the elaborate emotional gamesmanship of a doctor (Erland Josephsqn), hiding his own pain beneath imperturbable poh'tesse: the facile shallowness of her own work as a psychiatrist. It's breathtaking to see Bergman's use of dialogue compassionate or incisive (sometimes both at once) as needed offset by silences where his great gift for imagery is forcefully employed; unforgettable scenes of a near-catatonic patier (Kari Sylwan); Ullmann's vision of an illusory one-eyed woman; and i ;am sequences that only someone who loathes dream sequences as m i as Bergman does could have handled. literally smothered by the crippled, (One of them, where Ullmann disfigured forms of her patient , is especially strong.) These images are themselves a collaboration, between Bergman and his great cinematographer, Sven Nykvist, who has photographed almost all of Bergman's other films. First honors for. acting must, of course, go to Ullmann. As brilliantly as Bergman shows us the sources of her breakdown, Ullmann shows us, appropriately enough, the face of that torment (much of the the encounters are indeed "face film, in fact, is shot in tight closeups to face"). We see the small cracks in her composure, her efforts to seal thfem shut, the outbursts that signal the breakdown; Ullmann feels, and feels for, the humanity of Jenny, and her acting makes her as real a person to us as any screen character has ever been All of the acting, notably by Ullmann's patient Sylwan, Josephson (Ullmann's vis a-vis from Scenes From a Marriage), and Gunnar Bjornstrand formerly of Bergman's regular company, and giving a is beyond touching portrait of old age as Ullmann's grandfather — — ( '• ; — — — reproach.

The group has album released earlier this year. progressed greatly, giving up. some of their studio gimmicks in exchange for some fine rock and roll. The’ groups first album displayed the individual musical achievement of its members. John Palumbo, the heart of Crack the Sky, composed the music and penned the brilliantly conceived lyrics. The off-tempo rhythms could best be described as somewhere in limbo between Gentle Giand and Queen, and the production (credit Cashman and West) sparkles. The entire album was flawless, with the exception of a few out of place sound effects. Rolling Stone labeled this release as "one of the finest debut albums of the year." Now, riding on that album's semi-success. Animal Notes makes its appearance. That Queen-like sound so brilliantly conceived on its predecessor remains, but the misplaced stray sound effects have been eliminated. John Palumbo once again proves his composing genius, and the other four members equally participate in making this a truly gratifying LP. "We Wary Mine," is an expertly executed number possibly worthy of Am single status.

"Invaders from Mars," bearing an uncanny likeness to Bowie's "Space Oddity," tells of an earthly takeover. I would give the first side a slight edge in musical quality, but as a whole, the disc is quite excellent. The musicians are exceptional, the composing is grand, and the lyrics are superb. This could be the album that gains the group popularity, pushing Crack the Sky over the —Doug Alpern horizon. Tom Jans, Dark Blonde (Columbia) The Doobie Brothers have gone disco! 4 may cry. Oh, thank God, it's just Tom Jans, he is "Ready to Roll", and he may have dealt a fatal blow to rock. Contemporary rock music is hanging on by a thread as it is, and Jans has just found some scissors. Or an ax, to be more specific, a synonym for a guitar which suggests that you have to massacre the thing to get good'sounds out of if. No good sounds come from this album. "Not bad" is a description which has been worked to death on many recent releases. I will say that an album is terrible and a friend will say that it sounds pretty good, so I keep myself covered and avoid any arguments by saying, "it ain't bad."' Dark Blonde ain't bad. Jans does nothing innovative or imaginative. Most of the songs have one or two chord verses with a nasty combination of unimpressive guitar and piano backgrounds and lame lead runs. The first four cuts make an attempt at country disco, disco boogie, or boogie rock (what's in a label?), characterized by repititious, monotonous song structures and lyrical nightmares: Why don't you love me like / love you / can see through your dress babe So what you want me to do I'm ready to roll I'm ready to roll.

Regardless, the songs are not very good. They conjure a sense of Deja vu; we have all been here before. The vocalist talks his way through most of the songs, sounding a bit like Dylan although less hoarse, and the boogie disco numbers are sung especially poorly. The Ropstadt soundalikes showcase a little more vocal competence, though still a far cry from that female powerhouse's bellowing.

In "Rosarita” he proves that he knows more than four chords, begins to shake off the disco and Ronstadt influences and actually puts some effort into singing. “Back On My Feet Again and ’Starlight" are both mellow, piano-oriented, countryish efforts (do I hear strings on "Starlight"?). They are peaceful, and the lyrics really seem to mean something. There is probably more to this album than would like to admit. Between the lines (the grooves, rather) is hidden Jans' frustrations, aspirations, his sincere desire to produce something pleasing and' meaningful. He is struggling to say something but, limited either by his own talents or by the means available to him, he is not coming across. Do we need another frustrated artist? -Ted Vanderlaan I Prodigal Sun �ZAP A! Bee Gees, Children of the World (RSO) Although despised as it is by rock critics and other musical elitists, the recent upsurge of disco is truly a phenomenon the only one of sufficient magnitude to approach the Beatlemania of ten years ago. Contrary to what might be expected, there are many similarities between the two, particularly in' their ubiquity and reliance on a very formulaic style. Like Beatlemania, disco has introduced a wealth of new performers to the AM airwaves, but unlike it, disco has also dragged along some members of the old guard, inducing such unlikely candidates as Seals and Crofts, David Bowie and the Bee Gees. The Bee Gees. Who would ever think this trio of pop balladeers would be among the first to latch onto that style, so different from the one that originally brought them fame? Setting down their incipient R&B roots on the well-crafted Mr. Natural, they continued to hone their talents to a more dance-oriented format with the result that th'eir next album, Main Course, produced three hit singles and eventually went platinum. At this point, many Bee Gees fans began to suspect them of selling out, something which was really not true. "Nights on Broadway," for example, was as melodramatic as any of their compositions, while "Jive Talking" displayed the Bee Gees' often peculiar lyrics as well as their penchant for a good melody. What the group had effectively done was used disco as a vehicle for their own music; they were in full control of that style, a feat which few other groups had FUVIVAL EAST HiSENTS * _ * I AUD MEORIAL OCTBER WKBW INVITES YOU 10 THE FISTIVAl (AST PRESENTATIONS LABELLE AND TOWER 2 nd BUFALO TONIGH!

Children of the FESTIVAL EAST PRESENTS THE DOOBIE BROTHERS World bears as much resemblance to Main Course as the Bee Gees themselves do to the Ohio Players. Main Course was self confident; Children of the World is self conscious. Main Course was crafted; Children of the World is constructed, almost contrived. Main Course was a desperate but successful attempt to gain an increased audience; Children of the World is an attempt to give this audience exactly what it expects, and probably deserves. This album fails on a number of levels and for a number of reasons, many of which center around the fact that the Bee Gees have finally sold out. Foremost among these is the absence of Arif Mardin as producer. Children of the World is admittedly better done than their other self-produced album (Life in a Tin Can), but it nonetheless is marred by several flaws. What Mardin could do with five instruments, the Bee Gees need twelve, and even then the, effect is not the same. Mardin kept the group's identity fairly intact, although traces of other performers' styles were noticeable; contrast this to the faceless, indistinct quality of the band's production. This production also lacks consistency, some cuts sounding cluttered, making the others sound almost vacuous in comparison. Without Mardin as their leader in the studio, it is not surprising to find th.at the musicianship is often below average.

A prime example of this intensity is the first cut "Mama, Open Up." This song, along with another entitled "Hot," explores the paranoic rock musicians' trip. The frustrated duo laments; Mama Open up /'m coming hack in / don't like it out here no more I'm overweight I'm underpaid No one's beating a path to my door Munchkin tits? Orgies in your favorite local supermarket's produce section? don t think so. It s I Prodigal Sun She's juicy and she's trouble. She gets it to me good. My woman gives my fire Going right down to my blood. — Also because of this style, the trio's ability for composing professional melodies has taken a sharp decline. As is expected with the disco genre, the songs are frequently repetitive, with the accent on music is secondary. Only rarely does the The Beat Bee Gees' talent at good songwriting emerge, such as — s on "Lovers" or the chorus of "Love Me." Lest the reader be misled by this review (particularly that last statement), I should add that the album is not completely disco. Some cuts, like "Love So Right," are simply second rate Bee Gees songs (on the order of "My World") given Philly soul weak Philly soul trappings that do not trappings work. "The Way It Was" is the only song that does not show soul influence. However, instead of being a refreshing change from the rest of the album, it drags it down further by sounding more like the overdone schlock associated with Neil Diamond rather than something by the Bee Gees. Diametrically opposed to this, and the rest of the album for that matter, is the well-conceived title track. It represents a somewhat innovative step ahead for the group, because of its a cappello It introduction and restrained arrangement. over until it is half quality that level of maintains then the production techniques fall apart as the synthesizer becomes increasingly overbearing. Yet, even with these shortcomings, it still marks the high point of the album. Children of the World is probably the worst offering the Bee Gees have given us in the seventies, and, depending on how long the disco craze lasts, it may very likely be their most successful. As a disco albun, it is at least decent, even though as a Bee Gees album it is scarcely recognizable. Nevertheless, it does not erase the hope that the Bee Gees will eventually make an excellent disco album. Given some better production, as well as a little more effort and energy, maybe next time they will. —Eugene Zielinski - — SATURDAY FRIDAY � work on the drums are as good as ever.) Rather, the defects lie in the ornamentation; Alan Kended's guitar has been deemphasized to the point of mere rhythm-keeping, leaving most of the responsibility to keyboardist Blue Weaver. Unfortunately, Weaver relies too heavily on synthesizers and other electronic gadgets, which tend to become irritating after the first couple of songs. There is a noticeable improvement when he switches to the electric or acoustic piano, but even then the quality of his playing is not up to that on Main Course. However, it is the three brothers, as composers, vocalists, and lyricists, that make Chidren of the World the failure that it is. Never highly intellectual, the Bee Gees nonetheless used to write interesting lyrics, even if they occasionally bordered on the strange or neurotic. Now, most likely because cf their new-found style, they've largely been reduced to mouthing pretentious banalities like these from "You Should Be Dancing:" with a seriousness that is expected to be emulated by the listener. But I shouldn't make this album sound so stuffy. Flo and Eddie have not lost their ability to be funny, just refined it. This is a fun rock-humor record. It differs from earlier material in that they don't have their fun at the expense of the sung listener. So from "Guns," an editorial comment on senseless killings conducted to a demented circus tempo, to the satirical piece de resistance, "Keep It Warm," where they discuss everyone from Grace Slick to the Beach Boys to the Beatles; what we have here is probably, the best Flo and Eddie material to date. The musicians (Jeff "Skunk" Baxter and Ian Underwood to name a few) mesh well to reinforce the lyrics with vivid imagery. In short, this album contains that humor you crave from Flo and Eddie along with some pretty good music. But don't just take my opinion. Instead I offer you a synopsis of this album from two reknowned rock critics/flipped out West coast musicians who blindfolded themselves prior to their listening. Comeback act? They harmonize well, A lot of horns on those last few cuts. Lighthouse. BS&T. Chicago XXV. A two man team? Peter and Gordon. Simon and Garfunkle. Abbott and Costello meet A! Hirt. What was that last line? "From the Filmore to the White House chasing fame." Hmmm, they've played the Filmore. The White House too. The Captain and Tennille. Earl Slick Band. Earl Butz with Gutz.

A1 Boardman, seeded fourth, emerged victorious winning handily over unseeded John Leach 6-2, 6-2, 6-3 in the final. Boardman was in complete control, serving well and stroking smoothly throughout the match, which was characterized by long baseline rallies with Boardman holding the upper hand in most of them. To reach the final, however, he had to overcome a spirited come-back by Orin Agostini in the quarterfinals (6-0, 6-7, 6-3) and beat top-seeded Marc Miller (6-0, 6-2) a former varsity player, in the semi-finals. John Leach was the giant killer, of the tournament. He had to go the full distance to win all his matches prior to the final. He upset third-seeded Scott Monroe 4-6, 7-5, 6-2, in the first round, got Ruben David 6-3, 4-6, 6-2, in the quarterfinals and finally seventh-seeded Lance Zee 6-2, 2-6, 6-2, in the semifinals before finally succumbing to Boardman. Lynn Hershkovitz won the ladies crown winning her matches quite comfortably. She beat JoAnne Bauda in the finals 6-2, 6-2, displaying some powerful forehands and steady play from the baseline. The winners received attractive trophies for their efforts. Future tournament An open doubles tournament along the same lines is in the planning stages. The top-seeded team of Boardman and Jack Kaminski should have little trouble reaching the finals, because of their excellent team play in the past. Also adding to the strong calibre of play will be the team of Jim Iranti and his partner, Tom LaPenna. Stiff competition can also be expected from, the veteran team of Steve Allen and Al Alperin, and the team of Bill Cole and Rob Gurbacki have to be given a slightly better than even chance for top honors.

He maintained that our system is inferior to the European judicial in ascertainment of the truth. Speaking in Obrien Hall’s Moot Courtroom, Schlesinger discussed several flaws in our legal system, including the “lack of discovery,” that being the defendant cannot confront testimony to be used against him before trial. In European countries, the defendant and his council have unlimited right to inspect or discover the case of prosecution before and during trial. This enables the defendant and council to prepare a deeper defense against the charges, resulting in fewer convictions based on surprise testimony. “England has long abandoned the practice of trial by surprise,” Schlesinger said. He observed that when the Allies were preparing a tribunal for the Nuremburg war criminals, the Soviet Union rejected the American judicial system on the grounds that the defendant is not allowed to hear evidence to be used against him before the trial. Unlimited discovery Schlesinger mentioned two cases against “unlimited discovery.” One assertion was if the defendant knew the names and testimony of prosecuting witnesses, he could bribe or threaten them. He added that in West Germany, where people have this right, this does not usually happen. Testimony of witnesses is recorded before trial, so if the witness tries to contradict previous statements, “testament is called to help him remember.” Schlesinger then discussed the argument that unlimited discovery is a one way street; the prosecutor must show all his cards on demand while the defendant may keep his hidden until trial- Until this point is resolved, he felt that it is unlikely unlimited discovery will be Other targets of Schlesinger’s criticism were pre-trial detention introduced in this silent because a jury is not permitted to rule unfavorably on account of silence. In continental systems, the right to remain silent is upheld, and the defendant is under no compulsion to speak. However, compete silence is strongly discouraged because it can be taken as evidence of guilt. The victim in the continental system is never under oath so he cannot be indicted for perjury, and therefore can only help his case by testifying. Total silence is a rarity, according to Schlesinger, because it puts the defense at a disadvantage. Due to these shortcomings, collapse of American system the is imminent Schlesinger charged, adding that trials are games of strategy rather than searches for truth. Innocent people can be railroaded to jail on surprise testimony, while the guilty are encouraged to suppress facts by remaining silent. The result is that “true facts are hidden in an intolerably large number of cases,” according to Schlesinger. American speed In contrast to a slow moving American courtroom, a French tribunal can dispose of as many as 20 cases in one morning. If the defendant cannot prepare a suitable defense, he confesses and sentence passed immediately. is Other targets of Schlesinger’s criticism were pre-trail detention in the absence of a just reason for such detention, a bail system that arbitrarily favors the rich, and the built-in incentive for prosecutors to attain convictions at all costs. Schlesinger concluded that the lesson taught by the European system calls for reflection and open-minded thinking. He said that if we consider truth less important than other values, these other values must be spelled out, and strong enough to justify suppression of truth even though “such suppression sends innocent people to jail and allows guilty people to go free.” He felt that if we adopted the European practices of unlimited discovery and discouragement of silence our system would become just and efficient. A . native of Munich, Germany, Schlesinger persued his studies in Geneva and Berlin. He received his law degree in 1933 and emigrated to the United States in 1938. In 1948, he joined the Cornell Law School faculty where he became the dominant figure in Comparative Law. He was named Professor Ermitus of 1975. country. Schlesinger criticized the American judicial process where a defendant is counseled and even encouraged to reamin The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 25 State University of New York at Buffalo Wed., 20 October 1976 Symposium claims that bail discriminates against poor by Andrea Rudner Staff Writer Spectrum Most of the other panelists disagreed -with the contention that bail is really a form of collateral. Buddy Gadson, an employee of' the Rehabilitation Department of the Monroe County Jail and a former inmate, said the real purpose of bail is to keep the accused person “off the streets.” but preventive “Bail is nothing detention. Suppose a guy is living with his parents. Now where’s that parent going to get fifty thousand dollars? 1 personally had fifty thousand dollars bail. I didn’t even consider the possibility of posting bail.” The bias against the poor is inherent in the system, indicated Sal Martoche, administrator, Pre-trial Services Agency. ‘The rich can afford the bail. There’S no question about it, bail is prejudicial against poor people and minorities.” Panelist Dorothy Teryl, a member of the Executive Board of Citizens Inquiry on Parole, explained that conditions in the holding centers are often worse than those in the state’s maximum security prisons. She cited brutality, excessive censorship of mail and strict visitor regulations as three The bail system as it functions in the judicial process is highly discriminatory towards the poor, maintained a panel of six legal experts at the Statler Hilton last Saturday. The pqnel was part of a conference, ‘The Citizen and the Law, a Western New York Conference,” and was headed by Herman Schwartz, vociferous prisoner’s rights advocate and professor at the Buffalo Law School. Sponsored by The Fund for Modern Courts, the aim of the conference was to acquaint the general public with the problems and conflicts of our legal system. -The conference was heavily attended. Among those participating were students from local high schools and colleges, teachers, lawyers and representatives of citizens’ organizations. In his opening remarks, Vincent Doyle, president of the Erie County Bar Association, underscored the complexity of the problems that must be tackled in the major problems. legal system. Those who are most critical Martoche agreed, stating emphatically of the system, he said, are frequently people who are unaware of the complexity that “pre-trial facilities are abominable.” of the problem, and who have only a These centers are supported by tax monies “smattering” of background information. that he feels would be better spent in He warned that “fair, constitutional, improving other areas of the legal system. unhurried justice” would be expensive. “It costs fifty four dollars a day to keep a “You and me as taxpayers have to be person at a holding center. You can keep willing to pay the costs to bring about the them at the Statler Hilton for less than improvements that ,might be needed.” that,” he said. Doyle indicated that it is not a simple Teryl cited two reasons for the bad matter to revamp the judicial system. conditions at the centers. First, unlike Bail is the practice of requiring an penitentaries, detention centers are not accused person to place a sum of money required to meet any minimum standards, with the court which would be forfeited in she said. Next, defendents frequently plead the event that the person did not show up guilty to lesser offenses just so they can get at the specified time to stand trial. In the out of the facilities. The poor conditions at the centers are a past, defendants have been required to post to get people to plead as much as $100,000 bail or more to way of remain free until the trial. The defendant guilty for the process of pleading guilty is who is unable to raise the required bail sum far lengthier than that of entering a “plea is thrown in a holding center for days, of innocent.” A weeks, or even months, awaiting trial. fact sheet distributed at the “The sole purpose of bail is to ensure conference enumerates several defects in pre-trial imprisonmentr" the person’s ultimate appearance in court.” inherent Doqrr commented that bail should be, “Pre-trial detention, the sheet said. above all, reasonable. When bail is fixed at “adversely affects the defendant’s American ridiculously high levels, it is in effect “no bail at all,” he said. opportunity to adequately prepare his case with counsel, in addition to interrupting the normal functioning of his or her life.” This may include supporting a family. Studies have shown that detention often has a negative effect on the outcome of the case. Defendants who are detained before trial are more likely to be found quilty, and to receive harsher sentences than those released. Alternatives to bail There are alternatives to hail. “Release on Own Recognizance” or ROR is one. This means that the defendant must take it upon him or herself to return to court without supervision or having posted bail. “Supervised or Conditional Release” is granted when the judge has some reason to doubt that the defendant will return to court on his own. A defendant is freed under the supervision of a qualified person or under certain conditions such as attending a drug treatment program. “Appearance The Ticket”' is an alternative to bail for those charged with misdemeanors or violations. The defendant is handed a summons telling him when to appear in court. these Although alternatives are available, they are not always employed. A list of criteria to be considered in fixing bail was advanced by the panel. Among these criteria are character, financial resources, criminal record, previous record of responding to court appearances when required, and the weight of evidence against the accused. To aid those who have bond set at levels beyond their financial means, organizations called Bail Funds have been established by concerned citizens groups. These bail funds will investigate cases upon request. First, unlike penitentiaries, detention centers are not required to meet any minimum standards, she said. Next, defendants frequently plead guilty percent loss of funds. He added that bail was most often forfeited by those charged with traffic violations. He underlined the need for support community increased and participation. “Chicken-hearted” “The bail system is generally recognized as a disgrace, an atrocity and as a waste of money,” said Schwartz. He blamed the legislators for being “chicken-hearted” especially in an election year, and faulted the election of judges as a major contributing problem. He indicated that judges were sometimes pressured into decisions based on public sentiment rather than pure objectivity because of the need to remain “popular.” The Family Court Workshop discussed the law as it relates to families and minors. l,t addressed the problems of juvenile delinquincy, child abuse and neglect, and the definition of the role of Family Court. Nanette Dembitz, Family Court Judge, Manhattan was the moderator. The moderator for the Selection of Judges Panel was Francis J. Offermann Jr., director, Erje County Bar Association. The goal of this workshop was to evaluate the judge selection processes in terms of whether the present system produces the most highly qualified judiciary possible. The Victimless Crimes Workshop was a discussion centering on such crimes as vagrancy, prostitution, homosexual acts, and the possession of illegal drugs for one’s own use. The workshop questioned whether society has the right to punish a person for something that harms no one, except possibly the defendant? The moderator was Michael J. Brown, attorney in private practice. The Buffalo Citizen and The Law Conference was the first of ten conferences to be held throughout New York State. The next conference is scheduled for November 12, l‘)76in Rochester. �Life in small town college is difficult TOMORROW!

Mills is also painfully aware that his predecessor. Dr. Thomas Booner, left the post because of constant pressures from outside the university, primarily from the Union Leader. When the paper criticizes UNH, Morrison says, Mills catches flak from backward legislators, alumni, and parents of students at UNH. And if Mills is jockeying for funds from a conservative state government, he’s forced to cowtow to outsiders all the more. But.students are starting to get riled at Mills’ continuous acquiesence to the Union Leader. The biggest flap stirring now is over an experimental visitation policy scheduled to be enacted in six dormitories. The plan was jointly conceived and agreed on by a combination of student leaders and administrators, including Mills. When the Union Leader got wind of this tenatative policy,’ a series of stories and editorials were printed denouncing the proposal. And whammo, just like that, Vice Provost for Student Affairs, Richard Stevens, sent a press release to the paper stating the visitation policy would be shelved. The release was written without first permitting students to defend their position and protest to the Board of Trustees, Iron hand Another example of Loeb’s iron hand over university affairs was when the New Hampshire printed a photo of two streakers at a campus revel. President Mills promptly sent an open letter to the Union Leader condemning the action, presumably to forestall an editorial comment. Even though the New Hampshire’s office is just a few doors away, Mills refused to talk to the editors before apologizing to Loeb and his henchmen. The Union Leader ran an explosive editorial despite Mills’ letter. Students are just about fed up with what they call “an apalling situation.” Farnham, who was elected last year on a platform based on “working within the system,” has set his eyes on more issues to fight about, mainly the pass/fail predicament, tuition increases, the growing number of administrators on campus, and “an unruly registration procedure that everyone thinks is lousy except the registrar.” One thing the ongoing controversy has accomplished is the unity of two disparate forces; the student government and the New Hampshire, an alliance that is rare on most campuses today. But then both organizations figure that UNH has some catching up to do, and William Loeb, that swashbuckler of the press, doesn’t scare them one bit <!

Wednesday. 20 October 1976 �Nuclear waste still a problem by Rob Cohen Campus Editar The future development of United States for policy plutonium recycling nuclear proliferation was outlined in an unreleased report to the President, a summation of which was recently obtained The by Spectrum. The report, which will be circulated tomorrow at a press conference of environmental groups, sponsored by the Friends of the Earth, clarifies any action the Ford adminsitration might take in the area of nuclear fuel reprocessing. Addressing the problem of nuclear proliferation, the Fri Report (as the reccommendations are known) lists five options available to the government, of which numbers two and five are most heavily favored. Option two calls for initial government support for two reprocessing plants while option five requires of alternative demonstration technologies to nuclear power. The reprocessing procedure, which effectively closes the reactor cycle and salvages usable residue of uranium or plutonium fuel “spent” reactor from elements, is central to the present conception of a viable nuclear power industry. A reprocessing facility, under currently construction at Barnewell, South Carolina, will recycle uranium fuel under .Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) supervision upon its completion in the 1980s. Until then there will be no reprocessing plants operating in this country. A reprocessing center in West Valley, New York, owned by Nuclear Fuel Services, a subsidiary of the Getty Oil Corporation closed last month due to the astronomical price of building modifications required by the NRC (the building was situated on a fault zone). Peripheral facilities Option five of the Fri Report, said to be the most favored, calls for the construction of separate plutonium recycling a'nd waste facilities adjacent to the privately owned and operated uranium recycling Barnewell facility. These peripheral facilities would be built under the auspices of the Energy Resources and Development Agency (ERDA). In so doing, NRC supervision would be circumvented bacause ERDA is its sister agency. The plant would not be subject to tbe solidification UUP negotiate salary clause in new contract The United University Professions (UUP) is-presently negotiating a new contract with the New York State Office of Employee Relations (OER). The present contract expired last June, and negotiations have been in progress since then. UUP President Charles Fall said that negotiations are presently taking place with greater intensity than in recent months. He added that prospects for a formal agreement in the not too distant future are encouraging. When negotiations between UUP and OER began early in the spring of this year, State University of New York (SUNY) campuses were solicited by UUP to see exactly what the professionals at the various SUNY branches wanted in their contracts. One of the top priorities turned out to be a contract with salary increase clauses sensitive to rises in the inflation and cost of living. '< No increases Last July OER refused to negotiate any pay increases with UUP, and UUP refused to yield in this area. OER, in a countermove, refused to negotiate with UUP. Negotiations were eventually reinstated, however, one month later, due to pressure OER received from. UUP, legislators and SUNY officials. Negotiated agreements have been reached on approximately two-thirds of the issues contained in the contract. “Job security, salaries and the right of an individual to have redress when tired, are among the issues still to be ironed out,” said Fall. There are four major stumbling blocks between UUP and OER in their negotiations. The first area concerns the “due process” issue. The UUP feels there should be an arrangement in which an individual can have some redress if he is fired or if his tenure is removed. However, the OER feels that when the state makes a decision, it should not be challenged. Fall argued, we want it demonstrated without a doubt that a person is indolent or incompetent before he is fired." stringent scrutinizing standards like the privately owned section. The ERDA facility (GEMSCO) would eschew the mandatory NRC, hearings. The last part of the proposal includes the sale after one year of all GEMSCO facilities if ' the operation is deemed successful. Government outlays at this point (1984) will reach an estimated 600—800 million. It must be remembered that plutonium fabrication and waste solidification are not proven technologies. Marvin Resnikoff, nuclear physicist and New York Public Interest Research Group consultant, (NYP1RG) commented that “government would be* taking all the risks while business will reap all the benefits. Private industry won’t jump in unless the enterprise proves' commercially feasible. Business will wait for ERDA to test the they dive in.” Shaky investment Inherent in Option two are several major advantages. With a larger plant. American and foreign reprocessing requirements would for, investor be provided uncertainty would be reduced and NRC’s consideration of the ERDA facilities is not plutoniuip interfered with. The statement underscores the fact that industry is reluctant to invest in a venture unestablished based on and that the technology government inordinate committment is necessary tp coax private industry into eventually taking over. report Significantly . the that an adverse concedes precedent is set by having the government take all the risks in and plutonium recycling subsequent sales of the product to the private sector. Two prerequisite target dates are cited in the report. By 1978, initial demonstration of a high level waste solidification process. containerization of solid waste and the location of geological sites must be disposal accomplished. By 1985. the plan mandates an operating disposal facility which can also accept “spent” fuel elements of the “throw-away fuel cycle.” Risks Resnikoff felt the whole contingency is a thinly-disguised plan, enabling industry to operate recycling centers plutonium without incurring the potential financial risks and headaches. If ERDA finds that the operating plant is unfeasible it will have made an enormously expensive blunder. The economic wisdom of plutonium recycling, like the technology involved, is uncertain. The report stated government investments or guarantees be required to stimulate initial construction and that at most it would be a two percent reduction the cost of electricity in production via nuclear power. Of course, the discussed option may not necessarily be chosen. The option calling for the demonstration of alternatives technologies (solar energy, fusion, etc.) could geothermal, concievable be the winner. But given the past record and of the Ford proclivities adminsitration. he will most likely choose the option most benificial to the private sector.

The ownership concensus of many • concerned atomic scientists concerning its feasibility, however, is'unguarded . skepticism. Coincidentally, the peaceful development of nuclear energy and nuclear weapons proliferation have emerged as prominent issues in the 1976 Presidential campaign.

Circulation average: 15.000 Mandatory evaluation The second difference between the positions of the UUP and the OER revolve around the state rule that forces all faculty members to be evaluated by supervisory personnel once every five years. The union argues that if a .“five year renewable probation” is put intb effect, it would reduce all permanent contracts to a term of live years, and in turn, reduce the job security for all professionals who work for the State University of New York. The third difference between UUP and OER positions involves cost of living. UUP demands cost of living increases, while the OER is still undecided as to whether it will increase salaries or not as the cost of living goes up The final difference between the two is that UUP is asking for salary increases to be implicit in academic promotions because it feels that the professionals who work for the State University are suffering from an inequitable salary scale. Many professionals, in fact, receive academic promotions without increases in pay. UUP feels it needs a new contractual agreement. Fall explained “In the past, most of what we want now was based on faith or a general agreement. This can no longer be the case. Today, everything has to be written down on paper.” Wednesday, 20 October 1976 .

Moynihan who claims to be a New York State Senate race: insult to the public’s integrity opposes liberal-Democrat supports parochial abortion, school aid, opposes any further gun control, and knows nothing v by Danny Parker Spectrum Staff Writer As November second draws near, Repubjican Senator James Buckley was a staunch supporter of United States involvement in Vietnam. A law and order man, Buckley advocates a hard Ijne with the Soviet Union and the influence of Communism. How many other candidates call for a stepped up defense budget, and an increase and in research development of strategic bombers and Polaris submarines? Buckley’s latest “ace move” was considering putting his name in nomination for the Presidency. This would have prevented a Ford first-ballot victory and increased Reagan’s chances of winning the nomination. and Democratic Buckley Daniel Patrick challenger Monyihan search, scuffle, and those undecided, scurry for and probably unappeased, unenthusiastic voters. It is no wonder the majority of voters haven’t decided who to vote for, because they have been given the choice between one unappealing candidate (Daniel Moynihan) and more unappealing one even candidate (James Buckley). Buckley’s record stands on its conservatism. Buckley was a long Is Moynihan liberal? time supporter of Richard Nixon consider Many people and didn't call foY hjs Moynihan,a liberal, but I certainly why. Although impeachment until Moynihan did. don’t know Moynihan calls for a defense budget cut, he warns that defense spending has already been cut by inflation and that this country could be powerless in a still hostile world. He doesn’t favor recognition of Cuba and cpnsiders his stance preventing “fermenting insurrection” in Puerto Rico. The major difference between the candidates lies.in the area of domestic economic policy, Buckley is conservative and Moynihan approaches liberalism in this area. Mr. Moynihan favors federal government spending to improve state’s economies as well as the national economy, Moynihan endorses many social welfare \ programs. Buckley opposes federalization of welfare, Federal health insurance, Federal guarantees of New York City about crime and prison reform. \ Two minority candidates Moynihan won in the primaries by a one percent margin with three liberals splitting the vote (Abzug 35 perpent, Clarke II percent, and O’Dwyer 9 percent), It is clear that he doesn’t have the support of the majority ot Democrats and certainly few liberals, like myself. Buckley was elected when Republican Charles Goodell split with the Democrat Richard Ottinger and Buckley won on the Conservative line, Now in 1976, our senate race of minority two consists candidates facing each other. When I walk into the,voting booth, I know one thing for sure I won’t vote for Buckley!. I’m now laced with voting for Moynihan to stop Buckley and enhancing Moynihan’s political career, not voting for Moynihan and being an accomplice to Buckley’s re-election, voting for a third party candidate, or not voting at-all. As much as I oppose not voting, if New York State would rebel against this farcical election by not voting, then maybe a five percent turnout would mandate a new election. Unfortunately, I’ll probably cast a (very) vote reluctant for Moynihan. As an alienated member of the electorate, I can’t help feeling that the 1976 United States Senate race in New York State is an insult to my intelligence and my integrity. 1 MULLIGAN’S Night Club In Concert: October 21 ROWAN BROS. \ October 28 Over200 years in the making.

Published late Polity The Senate review committee was formed last month to investigate Sattesman violations of budget stipulations. Chief among these was a failure to publish on time. The Statesman , a thrice weekly morning newspaper, had appeared several times in late afternoon. The committee was charged with a review of the troubles, and was to act as an advisory body to both the Statesman and the Senate, in an effort to mediate the issue. All of the concerned parties have agreed that the late Statesman issues resulted from the inexperience of the present editors. All but one of the four well as editors, . as senior production, advertising and office managers failed to return to the paper this year. Further, it was generally agreed that most of the violations had been corrected since the formation of the ' The SUNY at Stony Brook student government has frozen the budget of the student newspaper, the Statesman. The paper is publishing this week using advertising revenue and existing office supplies, but faces severe cash flow problems as a result of the freeze. Student Polity treasurer Mark Manasi said he halted all payments to the Statesman last week at the direction of the Student Senate. The Senate’s Statesman review committee recommended freezing the paper’s budget when the editors refused to hand over the minutes of a meeting of its Board, which is Executive composed of the Statemafi's senior-editors. Members of the Student Senate, however, indicated Monday they had not told Manasi to freeze the paper’s budget, but had only asked that the editors in a release the minutes “reasonable amount of time.” They added that there had been no motion directing a budget freeze, as Manasi had claimed. “It was not my decision. As an officer of the student government, I act at the direction of the Senate,” he said. that they see the validity of the controversy. government/press They feel, however, that there committee. ’ Possible compromise A possible compromise was reached in a meeting last night between Statesman editors and the review committee. Subject to ratification by the full Senate, a transaction” was signed, which would the controversial give minutes to an elarged committee that included ten persons from campus media, as well as the Polity ten Senate present members. Although a form of this proposal had been presented to the Senate when it last directed that the minufes be turned over, Senate members declare that it was not acted on because it had some form of must be accountability to the .students, who provide 40 percent of the Statesman’s budget. Committee been ambiguous, and was ‘ thrown in as part of an argument, not as a formal proposal.” If approved, the compromise reached with the committee would most likely provide for the immediate release of Statesman funds. During the committee meeting last night, Treasurer Manasi was severely criticized by the committee members, who declared he had acted beyond his powers. Ghadimi contends that there is history at Stony Brook of government interference with the Statesman. Calling Manasi’s action a “personal vendetta,” he cited examples of Polity attempts to of printing the prevent unfavorable or expose articles. Specifically he alleged that there were threats last year by involved Polity officials to work to cut off funds, if an article revealing gross mishandling of concert monies was printed. Student government officials deny this, but nevertheless say Statesman. We see the need for press protection, and this includes with everything concerned editorial policy.

Often a ensuring fair system ized method for representation is necessary. SASU should definitely -include plans for recruiting and serving minorities, above and beyond the of its priority Third World Caucus, as list for the coming years. However, the formation of the Third World Caucus and the seating of its delegate representatives is necessary at this time. Commentary Third world joins SASU by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor After a year and a half of organizational infighting, soul-searching, tangled red tape and seething controversy, the Student Association of the State University (SASU) finally welcomed ten new delegates representing the Third World Caucus into last membership weekend in its Binghamton. , The unanimous vote, smooth business sessions, and general atmosphere of good will and cooperation came as a shock to those who have observed the organization’s development during the past two years, and who were expecting more of the shenanigans that have held up the real business of SASU in recent months. From the introduction of the Caucus idea in June 1975, few denied that SASU was not adequately meeting the needs of the Third World members of the SUNY student body, and few denied that something had to be done to rectify the situation. However, many of the arguments that were raised against it were quite persuasive. . Immediate problem For example, it would seem that simply adding on an “appendage” to the membership body would do little to correct the original problem. If SASU is not representing the Third World as is, then something is wrong in the organization itself which is being left untouched. As one delegate put it, ten more delegates will not guarantee equitable representation for the Third World, they will just guarantee the existance of ten more delegates. Many felt that SASU should devote the energy and funds allocated for the Third World Caucus to more effective recruiting and programs for minorities on the campuses. 118education grants awarded by HEW Constructive attitude Of course, simply seating the extra delegates is not going to guarantee effective representation of the Third World, but it the constructive approach demonstrated this weekend continues to prevail, significant progress should be made. The system SASU has devised for selection of the Caucus delegates seems quite fair. Hach SASU member school’s minority organization (such as the Black here) Union elects two Student representatives to the Caucus. These representatives then elect six at-large delegates, and the representatives of each • BOB & of the four SUNY regions (Buffalo is in Region One) select another, adding up to ten members. Furthermore, the resolution seating the Caucus passed by the SASU membership calls for an evaluation after one year. SASU Vice President for Campus Affairs Andy Hugos told the membership tliat there had been a lot of resistance to the seating of the Caucus, “most of it political.” More to the point, charges of racism and reverse discrimination have flown fast and furious between various SASU officials, past and present, and Third World Caucus proponents, along with the arguments more rational already mentioned. The bad feelings that have prevailed at past conferences were barely apparent last weekend, but it was obvious to the close observer that they are still simmering beneath the surface. Let’s, hope that SASU can now pull itself together and devote itself to the needs of all SUNY students, remembering that what-affects the white population ultimately affects the blaclj student body, and vice versa. Let’s also hope that the Board of Trustees realize that SUNY students are not going to be divided and conquered; they are going to be united and victorious.

Serving SUNY'S Buffalo IMPORTED CHINESE FOOD & - Award of 118 career education grants and contracts aimed at making school more relevant to the working world and stimulating closer ties between educators and the business and labor community was announced today by HEW's Office of Education. Recipients of the more than $10 million in awards are located in 48 states, the Trust territories of the Pacific Islands, Puerto Rico and the District of Columbia. Ranging from $370,000 to $10,915, the grants and contracts will support a variety of projects in state and local education agencies, institutions of higher education, and other nonprofit agencies. Seventy-one of the projects will focus on new or improved models and techniques that will help persons to benefit from an understanding of the relationship between education and work. They support activities in five major areas: kindergarten through high schbol career education programs; particular settings (senior high schools, community colleges, adult and community agencies, 4-year colleges and universities); special segments of the population (handicapped, gifted and talented, minority and low-income youth); training and retraining of persons conducting career education programs; and communicating to the public the methods, activities and evaluation results of career education. Included this year in the Office of Education’s awards are 47 grants to develop five-year state plans for implementing career education through local education agencies. Among the innovative projects to be funded by the awards announced today are: the Kodiak Island (Alaska) Borough School District will use its $91,000 grant to provide students from remote fishing villages with work experience opportunities in larger cities to explore careers not previously available to many native Alaskans; and the Frederic Burk Foundation for Education at San Francisco State University, which received $138,637, will help the visually impaired achieve a stronger sense of independence. Besides helping them to develop such skills as cooking their own meals, getting around in the community, and managing personal finances, the project aims to equip these high school graduates with job-seeking and job-holding skills. They will be exposed to a variety of jobs so that they will have the experience and knowledge to make their own choices about employment. Also, Glassboro State College in New Jersey received $102,870 to develop and implement a career education course for the parents of K-12 students in the Vineland Public Schools. Parents will learn how career education helps strengthen their children’s mental growth and what they can do to further career development outside the classroom. Piedmont Technical College in Greenwood, S.C., will spend its award of $99,281 for a pilot project involving 40 students who will earn academic credit by exploring various occupations in the Greenwood area. This project will show the usefulness of basic academic skills in the working world. The Central Virginia Educational Television Corporation will produce a half-hour film on career education with its $82,500 grant. The program, developed for public television stations throughout the country, will illustrate how career education programs can serve the needs of the handicapped, gifted and talented, and other special populations. Projects were funded under the Special Projects Act of the Education Amendments of 1974 (P.L. 93-380). This is the second year for the career education awards. Page six . The Spectrum .

I HOLIDAYS J801^UNIONED by Brett Kline Feature Editor An incident between two members of Campus Security and a student who has asked to remain anonymous took place on the Amherst Campus the night of October 2, the immediate result of which was a partially shattered windshield, six tickets issued by Security, and an imminent court case. The two accounts of the incident, the first by the driver and one of his passengers, the second by Security Officers Kurt Hermann and James Smith, differ considerably. The case comes before the Amherst Town Court sometime in November. According to the student, he and two friends got into his 1 976 Jaguar XKE sports car parked in an Ellicott lot, pfterone of his friends had been loudly revving the car, which had a faulty muffler. It was at that point that officer Hermann heard on his portable radio that officers in cars 49 and 9 were investigating noise they thought was a car coming from Governor’s parking lot. Hermann and / Smith continued walking in that direction. It was 2:00 a.m. and the night was foggy and damp as the student attempted to maneuver his car around what he considered drunk students who were walking in the middle of the road at the sharp turn before the Bubble. As he drove past Governor’s, he noticed another car “way behind” him, past the Bubble. Just before the right turn off Hadley Road toward Maple Drive, he saw two people standing in the middle of the road. “I saw them just as 1 got to them, ‘cause it was foggy as hell. They had no flashlights and 1 couldn’t tell they were Security.” One of the passengers in the car, who, by his own account has better than 20-20 vision, saw them about 30 yards before his friend did. He did not recognize the brown unforms and thought they were drunk students crossing the street. In tne Deposition of Witness written and signed by Hermann, he reported, “I had taken my nightstick out of the holder and both of us attempted to flag the vehicle down. Just then I saw Car 49 behind the other vehicle with their siren on and their overhead emergency lights on.” Both students asserted that there was no attempt made by the officers to flag them down and that,'in fact, the two had crossed over the yellow line into the path of the car. L. Patrick Glennon, Director of Security commented afterwards that because of the heavy fbg, the stride Ms may not have seen the officers trying to flag them down. The passenger in the car stated firmly, “I was leaning back with my knees up across the width of the car. I could see front and rear very well. The nearest car was over 200 yards away and had no siren or red lights going.” As the driver approached the officers, he turned the wheel of the car slightly to avoid brushing against them. “1 had no idea they thought 1 was doing something wrong, he noted. “Suddenly, there was a loud bang, and 1 slammed on the brakes. There was a black thing sticking about four inches into the head. It took me a windshield right next second to realize it was a nightstick.” Hermann’s deposition read, . . he sped by and my nightstick struck the upper left corner of the windshield and was torn out of my hand.” Hermann is preser.ly on vacation, according to Glennon, and could not be reached for comment. The driver could not'definitely see if the stick had struck the windshield by accident or if it had been swung directly at the car by the officer. His passenger stated, however “I actually saw him swing the stick. It looked like a forehand swing.” Both students pointed out that if the stick had been held at windshield level, either parallel to it or facing it at any indirect angle, the force of the car in motion- would have knocked jt from the officer’s hand away from the car or on the ground. They believed that the stick must have been aimed directly at the left hand corner of the windshield to penetrate so deeply. Glennon contended that Herman could have swung his arm out in a forward motion and struck the windshield with the stick as he attempted to get out of the way of the oncoming auto. “I see it' mostly as a defensive action,” he said. “I’m not going to make a judgement on the action of the officer because I wasn’t there. They risked their lives standing in the road I admit it wasn’t the safest thing to do,” he continued. After the windshield was struck, the driver braked, removed his seat belt and ran back toward the officers. Hermann wrote that the car had stopped “approximately 300 yards from us.” This distance was later measured, according to one officer who asked not to be identified. The driver said, “I calculated, based on my reaction time, on the speed of the car, and on the braking forces in terms of g’s, that I stopped 1 50 to 200 feet from where he swung the nightstick . . . No way it was 300 yards, as stated iri the ‘depo.’ It’s ... simple physics.” He stated flatly that, as he ran back, he was bleeding slightly on his arm and fingers from glass cuts. This was not confirmed by any member of Security. Immediately, a patrol car pulled up and very quickly, four or five more arrived on the scene, according to the driver. “Are you fucking crazy, you almost killed us,” the driver yelled. After five minutes of talk among the officers, the driver was asked to get into the patrol car and he was read his rights. When he asked what the charges were, an officer replied that he was being ticketed for having three people in a two passenger auto, inadequate exhaust, imprudent speed, running a stop sign, failure to keep right, and driving while intoxicated (DWI). He was driven to the Amherst Police Station by Security Officers Cocker and Urbanski, where he was given a breathalyzer test. The student registered .03 on the scale, where .10 is the level needed to be considered intoxicated. He protested the DW1 charge after the results of the test were known. Smith explained afterwards to The Spectrum that if the driver were at all suspected of being intoxicated, an initial DW1 charge must be filed. If he had failed the test, Smith continued, a second summons would have been issued. “The DWI charge is obviously going to be withdrawn,” said Glennon. Wednesday, 20 October 1976 . The Spectrum Page seven . �EditPrial The 'Statesman' money College newspapers funded partly or fully by student governments provide good examples t>f what governments will do when they have financial power over newspapers: they abuse it. The freezing of the budget of the SUNY at Stony Brook student newspaper is one of a long series of encroachments against student newspapers by student governments. This is nothing new, but its predictability makes it no less repugnant, and we will take this opportunity to express our support for the editors of the Statesman, and endorse the idea behind their suggested remedy. Reports of actions against student newspapers come from the College Press Service with alarming regularity. The law reviews are filled with groundbreaking First Amendment decisions delivered in cases which began with actions by university administrations or student governments, two groups which have traditionally felt great "responsibility” toward the student press. The two most frequently invoked rationalizations for restricting a student newspaper has been, for universities and colleges, responsibility for what takes place on campus, and for student governments, the need to ensure the newspapers accountability to the students. This latter argument was behind the actions of the Stony Brook Polity Senate, which, though it may not have authorized the freeze, did promote the censorial atmosphere which made it possible. The Statesman's problems this year in meeting its scheduled morning distribution is very serious. But requesting that the newspaper turn over the minutes of the meetings of its Executive Board is clearly a remedy worse than the problem, and an expression of the worst kind of opportunism that we can expect from student politicians. The most important thing to remember about this incident how easily the same thing could happen here, where the is student government also provides a portion of the newspaper's revenue. For the first time this past summer, a branch of the student government here negotiated several mild requirements of The Spectrum, which, we are happy to say, were amiably resolved. Well intended stipulations are only disturbing when one considers the number the Stony Brook Polity has managed to shackle the Statesman with. We hope the editors of the Statesman will now look back at these agreements and see if they haven't given up too much ground to the student government. We find the trouble with the method of allocation, whereby partisan student politicians decide among themselves the funding needs of a press dedicated to criticize, if necessary, those very same persons. Seeing this as a clear conflict of interest, and yet agreeing that student funded organizations must be accountable to the student body, we propose that an alternate, more impartial body be formed to determine media allocations. Such councils already exist at several universities. Our proposal is modeled on the possible compromise reached during the week between the Statesman and Polity, the Stony Brook student government, which creates an impartial budget sub committee empowered to determine the funding needs of campus media. The sub committee would be composed of campus media and student government representatives. The advice of faculty members may be helpful on such a committee. It hopefully would diminish the influence of student governments in college newspapers, and improve both groups at the same time.

This letter is in response to Michael Kayes’ letter to the editor concerning the frame-up of Kenneth Johnson. Maybe the real facts will help to clear Michael’s nebulous interpretation of this very serious situation and his myopic view of reality. I am a white woman who believes rape is a violation of the mind, body and'spirit. However, it is" a worse injustice to put a man in jail tor 126 years for rape crimes that he obviously did not commit. committed by a Last November a series of black man against white women, occurred in downtown parking lots. Local businessmen, afraid of losing out on their X-Mas sales, pressured the Buffalo P.D. for an immediate arrest. Scores of black men were picked up off the street and harassed. I truly believe that if the rapist were white, that white men would not arbitrarily be arrested off the street. Tlje rape victims identified the rapist as a tall, thin, light-skinned man with a beard. Ken Johnson is a tall, think dark-skinned man with a beard. Mr. Kayes’ racist assumption that “all blacks look alike" clearly came out in his letter. When Ken heard that he was a “suspect.” he tried to contact the police to straighten the situation out. No one cooperated with him. A few days later he was arrested on a 1670 parking violation and after being beaten up, he was thrown in a police lineup where he was identified by one woman as the rapist. Four, rape victims have said that Mr. Johnson is definitely not the rapist. Two women identified Ken in a police lineup, not face to face as' Mr. Kayes states. Mr. Kayes fails to mention that rapes of the exact nature occurred while Ken was in jail. The • Graphic criticism Buffalo newspapers also did not publicize these 1 might add that police lineups are often manipulated where one man can “stand out” among the others. This will all be brought out in the trial. So will facts such as Ken Johnson having sworn affidavits of his whereabouts at the times the rapes occurred which four judges have refused to read. So will Ken Johnson’s outstanding character aS a respected community worker and leader. I believe that rape laws do not serve to protect Ionian. When Joarine Little defended herself against a rape attack, she was tried for murder. II was only a mass movement of concerned citizens that helped to save her life and kept her from quietly being railroaded into prison. And it is only an active mass movement of concerned citizens that will help ensure Ken Johnson a lair trial. Mr. Kayes’ statements that the defense has been canvassing neighborhoods asking questions about rape victims is a blatant lie. I would like to know where he obtained this false information. Mr. Kayes is merely trying to confuse and divide the essential and needed woman’s energies and support of Ken Johnson. How a person can resort to such low tactics events. is beyond my comprehension. I know that I may be the next victim of a rape attack. Any black man with a beard may be the next man harassed and framed. Yes it could be anyone of us next. In summary, I’d like to tell Mr. Kayes the old proverb, “two wrongs do not make a right.” Rape is a total violation of a woman’s being. Arresting the wrong man to pacify local business interests and the public in general is, in my eyes, just as unfortunate.

IT ALL SELF-DESTRUCTS" Guest Opinion GSEU attacks Somit delay by the Graduate Student Employees Union Stewards Council What is going on between the G.S.E.U. and acting President Somit? The public facts have been published in The Spectrum, but behind those facts, the record, is an off the record history. While pretending to work informally and flexibly, the Somit administration has refused, as PERB and the State of New York have refused, to put any of their private assurances or informal dealings with-the G.S.E.U. on record. The G.S.E.U. tried to see President Somit on issues we believe graduate employees are concerned about. We negotiated the terms of a with us his public through meeting representatives. But after privately offering, when The Spectrum tried to gain public confirmation of a meeting from him, Somit denied such a meeting would take place. He explained to The Spectrum that any meeting would prejudice our PERB hearings; yet his assistant on the day the article appeared privately assured the G.S.E.U. that informally, although the ground rules had been changed a bit, Somit would meet with us. Why deny in public, but privately keep negotiations going? Somit claimed at that time d public meeting would effect the G.S.E.U. hearings before PERB, when in fact it was he who was setting the stage for the State’s subsequent actions before PERB. The G.S.E.U. had offered to withdraw its petition before PERB if the State consented to meetings between the G.S.E.U. and the Office of Employee Relations, SUNY Central and the local U.B. administration to seriously discuss the issues which are listed in the G.S.E.U. open letter to Somit, published in The Spectrum. By means of informal conversation and telephone negotiation, we were informed that our offer to withdraw had been accepted on the terms wished. The offer was instead rejected. The State at an informal session in Albany presented the G.S.E.U. with the very meeting Somit had earlier in the week publicly denied the G.S.E.U., if we would withdraw. It is more than irony that Somit’s original rejection qame while he was in Albany with SUNY officials; one of whom advised the acting President to kill the meeting. On Tuesday, he publicly rejected a meeting with the G.S.E.U. so that on Friday representatives from SUNY Central could set aside their own private agreements for other meetings to offer the G.S.E.U. what on the Monday before the Tuesday rejection had already been granted the Union. The “agreement” worked but at PERB that Friday morning seemed simple enough. At the point when Somit agrees to a meeting with the G.S.E.U., the Union will withdraw from PERB. Ron Uba, G.S.E.U. representative to PERB and Western New York district representative for New York State United Teachers would arrange the meeting with Somit for the G.S.E.U.; the State would inform Somit of the commitment they had made in his name at PERB. Nothing was written, it was a “gentleman’s agreement.” Somit is no gentleman. He has avoided speaking to Uba altogether and, when asked by The Spectrum to spoke through situation, the explain Vice-President Sigglekow. Sigglekow reiterated the President’s legal quandry over a meeting. Somit, he said, did not want to overstep his authority. While it is nice to know that the President is a meek man and doubtless will inherit the earth as a reward for his remarkable fastidiousness, he has been told his fears for ms authority are unfounded by representatives from PERB and, if the agreement has been honored, by his betters in the state hierarchy. Sigglekow also went on to require that the G.S.E.U. withdraw from PERB before any meeting, as the agreement stipulated and, even then, the Union could not meet with Somit as the G.S.E.U. While in The Spectrum Sigglekow seems to explain that- the Union need only “confirm a day Union representatives could meet with Somit after G.S.E.U. had officially withdrawn from the PERB proceeding,” in a phone conversation with Howard Kling, Sigglekow denied under any circumstances a meeting with the G.S.E.U. or representatives from the G.S.E.U. The acting President will only meet with “concerned individuals” or members of G.S.A. So it was that even when a public commitment was made by the administration and recorded in The Spectrum, it was quickly and privately denied. The administration now on the record seems to have fulfilled its part of the agreement. Privately it refuses to act on its own public statement. But Somit and Sigglekow are a shameless pair and without wincing once go on with this kind of public/private duplicity. In the same phone conversation, Sigglekow repeated his suggestion made in The Spectrum a suggestion made in private as early as the first public refusal by Somit to the G.S.E.U. that the Union people tag along with the G.S.A. executive committee when it met with the President for their monthly meeting. The G.S.E.U. had already requested that the G.S.A. attempt to get budget information at that meeting, and the G.S.A. had kindly added the item to its agenda for the October 8th meeting. Within a week of The Spectrum story, Sigglekow (restless user of the telephone that he is), worried lest the G.S.A. was bringing G.S.E.U. representatives to its October 8th meeting, called G.S.A. President,Pat Ley, to tell her not to bring G.S.E.U. people and, after reviewing the agenda, to postpone the “regular” repeats itself. meeting. The same Sigglekow offers the G.S.E.U. use of the G.S.A. meeting as a means of seeing Somit; he then pressures the G.S.A. not to let the G.S.E.U. “use” them. The “agreement” was killed. Harvey Milowe, the PERB hearing officer who arranged the agreement, tried to make the State live up to its side of the bargain, but he failed. Our effort is little more than a list of unrecorded telephone calls, half-revealed conditions, reversals, informal enticement and public hearings, private frustration, or public avowal and private denial. Our energies are used in meetings of no substance, in deciphering the latest informal gesture of the administration, against its public statements. It has proven a waste of time. There is a cold logic to the administration’s off-the-record shenanigans. Somit has not yet had to explain his positions of what SUNY at Buffalo intends to do about a single issue raised by graduates through the G.S.E.U; What of tuition waivers for next year; the last paycheck; the cutback in TA/GA lines; the dead wieght of our wages? The G.S.E.U. waits for one instance, one public 'statement allowed to stand, one issue honestly addressed by the Somit administration in order to demonstrate their good faith. We wait , in vain The G.S.E.U. is not going to disappear; nor are TAs and GAs going to meekly fall away as lines are cut. The union is now a permanent feature on this campus and it is irresponsible for Somit to play the hide and seek games he does. The Union will formulate its issues on its own and devise what actions are necessary to remedy the deteriorating conditions of graduate employees at U.B. The administration has proven again as it did in the spring that only decisive action moves them. The Stewards’ Council, on October 10th, approved a plan of action including organizing, issue clarification, and departmental action which culminates in a strike vote in early spring. COi<?7<6 Ellicott coffeehouses To the Editor. In reference to the “coffee house in Ellicott” I would like to relate my personal involvement with the matter. On last Thursday evening, my room in Fargo was entered by a “Cliffie” intent on my signing a petition to keep the coffee house out of the Fargo cafeteria. She gave the following facts in defense of her cause: 1) Admittance of the coffee house would bring loud music, booze, rowdies and general disruption to Fargo Quad. 2) A large section of the cafeteria would be dismantled, totally walled off, and locked 24 hours a day, every day (except during coffee houses). 3) Above reasons would lead to permanent loss of study space. question, My roommates immediately signed the petition. “Christ, this is horrible! I hope we can stop it!,” was the genersl opinion. I, knowing the first reason to be untrue from my experience with the soft folk music and mellow crowds of the coffee houses, said that I’d hold back on my signature till after Friday’s meeting where I could hear the other side of the argument. By the meeting on Friday, two hundred and some odd signatures had been< collected due to the above “facts.” At this meeting, which filled half the cafeteria, I heard the other side of the argument, although I can safely say that about 95 percent of those present didn’t; The true facts are: 1) Coffee house would change nothing in the Fargo cafeteria, except for the table arrangement, stage and sound equipment needed on Friday nights. 2) The cafeteria would be left, in its entirety, to all the students always, except from about 7:00-1:00 on Friday nights. 3) The strongest alcoholic beverage served would be wine. (Clifford Fumas College, themselves, serve wine in the cafeteria during their wine and cheese seminars. Gallo wine . . but I won’t get into . that.) 4) The amount of students wishing to study on Friday night in the cafeteria is so small that alternate study areas is not hard to find. 5) Many students, who neither heard of the Cliffies’ “cause” nor Friday’s meeting, are in favor of a an Amherst Coffeehouse. Because of the false pretentions on which my the and many others signed roommates aforementioned petition, I ask the Clifford Fumas College to deny the validity of it. 1 also ask the Coffeehouse to keep trying; I’m willing to help you.

Of course, the Beatles haven’t kicked out the jams together for nearly 10 years, and in fact they’ve even come out and said they haven’t the least hankering'to do so, but that isn’t stopping the BRF gang from pouring $70,000 and two years of toil into the project. “It can happen!,” assures the BRF newspaper ad that asks readers to send $5 plus $.75 postage for the honor of sporting a red, white and blue “It can happen” T-shirt and a numbered membership card. The shirt entitles the bearer to a chance to be one of the 10,000 chosen ones to attend the live concert, although the chances of that ahppening are slim since the BRF hopes to enlist seven million subscriptions. The T-shirt sale, which will go into high gear in Angeles in several weeks, will supposedly provide the necessary cash to buy sound equipment for rented halls in seven U.S. cities. According to what the BRF calls its “unique plan,” the halls can be made available on a day's notice should the Beatles be suddenly grabbed by the same reunion frenzy that is currently gripping thousands of their fans around the world: Then, the game plan, but will it work?

They are quick to point out that they are the only promoters offering a plan that would give all the money to the Beatles themselves. BRF spokesmen are hazy concerning details of what happens to all the dough should the concert fail to come off. They maintain, however, that anyone who sends in $5.75 will be getting an honest deal in any event. “You go into Penney’s and just a plain T-shirt will cost you $4.50,’’ says BRF organizer Robert Galinsky from the foundation s office, a room crammed with Beatle posters and other memorabilia. The BRF is hardly alone in its efforts to get the Beatles back together. Some people close to the scene say over 100 promoters in every part of the world have hatched various schemes to reunite the four. One group is selling “Let It Be" bumper stickers to encourage the gife while the Beatle’s own record company reports receiving blank checks from around the world along with instructions telling the firm, to simply fill in the proper amount should the Beatles ever do another concert.

They sent out resumes and after rejection notices they did what any self respecting sociology students would in a similar pinch: they did q study. In a paper read recently to the American Sociological Association, the pair revealed the following key phrases that all future rectors and rejectees will want to note: “We're overwhelmed.” Sociology departments nationwide, like Soccer Bulls lose to Brockport inside Steve The University of Buffalo Soccer team, lacking a in the half, Brockport took the lead as Harris, Andrew perfect pass Klassen, with a from 3-1, State Brockport offensive lost to attack, strong and scored. last Saturday at Rotary Field.

Ironically, just after the Bulls’ best opposing this, they four shots on the Brockport goal. Despite offensive threat of the day, Brockport'came back for trailed by only one goal at halftime. The visiting Eagles opened the scoring eight the clinching goal with about 25 minutes left in the minptes into the game as left-wing Marcelo Curi hit game. Curi, giving Buffalo’s defense a hard time all the far post with a crossing shot. Buffalo tied the day, converted a short chip-shot, and scored at the game three minutes later as forward Ali Holder, on a goal-mouth. Despite the three goals, the Bulls’ backline pass from Mark Karrer, scored from close in, cleanly played a strong game. Fullbacks Mike Allan, Wain beating the prone Brockport goalie, Rhett King.

Although the visitors didn’t have offsides on numerous occasions, and at least many scoring opportunities, they began controlling temporarily stopped the advance. Buffalo, coach Sal Esposito, called the game the midfield play, as Buffalo’s passing attack faltered. The Bulls failed to sustain any pressure as “very disappointing” and “worse than the Canisius their short-passing, little dribbling style of offense game,” where once again their offense was lacking in couldn’t get on track. Buffalo’s fullbacks would a 1-1 tie. With Buffalo playing their last home game advance the ball, and consistently attempt short of the year, Esposito scoffed at the possibility of it passes to the middle, but this proved ineffective as being his last home game as coach at this school, Brockport successfully clogged up the inside, taking saying he was “very optimistic” about being back the play away. Finally, with four minutes remaining nextTall. „ Council opticians many other employers, are swamped with applicants. Many rejectors to note to what degree they are overwhelmed.

According to Weinreich, the loss wasn’t due to the new offense. “We made fundamental errors, and our ball-handling wasn’t as good as it could have been.” He remained optimistic. “1 think it’ll work out,” he concluded. v2ER HI »»* <7 m In. the first game against Binghamton, Weinreich used a more familiar offense. “I wanted to get one game under our belts," he said. This strategy worked as Buffalo defeated Binghamton in the first game, 15-12. The Bulls looked very good in the early going when the second server, freshman Mary Evanco served up eight points. After tha$ Buffalo’s offense slowed down a hit, in spite of. some superb Spiking by Fvanco and sophomore Judi Bardak. With Buffalo leading 14-6, Binghamton came on strong to score six uncontested points and put the win in doubt for Buffalo. The Bulls' defense was disorganized and confused, but the team hung on to score the game point. Trouble at first That's Bill Cole (with the beard) and Rob Gurbacki, Buffalo's top doubles team this year. They led Buffalo to its second consecutive Big Four tennis championship last week, in which Buffalo won 24 of 27 matches. At first doubles, Gurbacki and Cole, both seniors, won all three of their matches. Cole at first singles, was undefeated and Gurbacki, playing both first and second singles was also undefeated. are this week's Athletes-of-the-Week. They Honorable mention goes to Bob Howard who led the cross country Bulls to two victories this week. For the next game, Weinreich switched to the new offense. Instead of changing setters with the rotation, the new offense had only one setter, no matter where she was in the rotation. Weinreich hoped to prepare the team for their games in Canada against St. Catherines, who use a similar offense. Sue Pels started out slowly and wasn’t helped much by the performances of her ‘ teammates, who seemed to be continuing their poor defensive play of the game before. With Binghamton leading 5-0, Weinreich replaced Pels with freshman Amy Ostrir, who was making her first appearance of the season. Ostrir filled in admirably by setting the ball up for spikers Evanco and Hilary Schlesinger, and Buffalo pulled ahead 8-5.

Marilyn Dellwardt made some beautiful spikes after Pels’ sets to increase Buffalo’s lead. Binghamton closed the lead before Buffalo scored the game point to win the match. No contest Syracuse posed a bigger problem than the Colonials. The Bulls were totally ineffective against the strong Syracuse team, and the Orangewomen had no trouble disposing of them, 1 5-4. Buffalo lacked control, and their hits went consistently out-of-bounds or into the net. The second game of that match started out a little more closely, and at one point, Buffalo was behind by only one point, 5-4. But it didn’t last long, as the Bulls’ defense again fell apart, and allowed Syracuse to go. way ahead, 14-4. The Orangewomen took the match by winning the game 15-7. Weinreich plans to continue using the new offense despite the losses. He thinks that, in time, it should work, out very well. “The line-up and offense were a little bit new,” he commented. “We just need some more practice.” Nov. 1-3,1976 Let’s talk about it.

Peelle, baseball coach, football coach and at Athletic Director this University,, died on Sunday. He was 69. He was working around his home in Snyder when he was stricken with a heart attack. He was taken to Meyer Memorial where he was Hospital pronounced dead. Peelle had been a member of the athletic department for 42 years, and was teaching a health course this semester. He joined the Buffalo staff in 1934, after graduating from Purdue as an All Big Ten quarterback and catcher. was assignment His first assistant football coach, but in 1936 he became head coach and Athletic Director. He continued coaching football until 1947, when his final team was 8-1. One year, the Bulls were selected to participate in the Tangerine Bowl, but the Bowl’s organizers refused to let any black players take part. Buffalo had only one black a third string end, but Peelle decided that if this one player couldn’t play, then the team wasn’t going. Attendance record Even after Peelle resigned as football coach, he still managed to attend almost every Buffalo football game, either home or away. In fact, from 1934 to 1970, when Buffalo dropped football, Peelle only missed two football games ine in 1958 against Temple and in 1970 against Kent State. Peelle brought baseball to Buffalo.

It’s a symbol for life Cross country Bulls beat LeMoyne but suffer to RLT. The cross country Bulls literally stumbled down the home stretch on Saturday at the Amherst Campus, beating LeMoyne 24-31, and losing to R.I.T. 27-28. Buffalo’s chances to beat R.I.T. were ruined when three of the Bulls fell, separately of each other, but at the same spot on the course, causing them to lose valuable time. The course runs through the Letchworth Woods near Ellicott, and across some small gullies. A board was placed over one of the gullies, but the board was broken, and three of the Bulls tripped over it. None of the runners of the other teams fell. “We’re a hard luck team,” said Bull coach Walter Gantz. The broken board was in a crucial location just as the runners emerged from the woods, a few hundred yards before the finish line. The Buffalo runners who tripped were about five yards behind opposition runners, perfect striking distance. — — Records set First, Buffalo’s Bob Howard fell. He got up and finished third, behind the Dolphins Peter Dunn and R.I.T.’s Mike Massare. Nevertheless, Howard wound up with a school record for the course, travelling the six miles in 32:03. Mike Fischer also fell, and finished fifth, but he too bettered the previous course record, as did Buffalo’s John Ryerson. Tom Pitchford and Mark Rybinski were the remainder of Buffalo’s top five. Only the top five runners count for each team, but because of cross country’s scoring system, Buffalo’s sixth runner hurt their chances to beat R.I.T. Joe Bauer was leading R.I.T.’s fifth man, but when Bauer fell, the R.I.T. runner passed him. Each runner gets the number.of points as his final place (e.g. the 15th finisher gets 15 points) and the team with the lowest score wins, so the R.I.T. runner finished one place higher, giving R.I.T. a one-point victory. the Bookstore Page fourteen The Sepctrum Wednesday, 20 October 1976 . . Running intelligently “I can’t be disappointed,” Gantz said. “They ran a perfect race . . . until they fell.” Gantz noted that the visiting runners started out fast, Bulls knew the course and ran a smart race. After about one the Bulls were way behind, but were pacing themselves. After mile, about three miles, Buffalo had made up the distance between themselves and their opponents. As they approached the home stretch, they were on the verge of winning. Then, they came to the fatal board. Today, the second Big Four championship will be held in Delaware Park. Gantz considers Niagara the team to beat, since they defeated Buffalo earlier this year in a dual meet. Later, Buffalo beat Niagara in an invitational meet, but the Purple Eagles’ top runner missed that race because he was sick. “I think that first place is an outside possibility for us,” Gantz predicted Paige Miller �\ ■ ■ ( HOMECOMING ■"" — m ' lj|L ■ ap I — — - MM ' — r—nrvET area |nf ° rmatiow _ ADS may be placed In The Spectrum office weekdays 9 a.m.-5 p.m. The deadlines are Monday, Wednesday and Friday (Deadline p.m, 4:30 for Wednesday’s paper is Monday, etc.) \ . ~-.

The program began last Friday night in the , '« Fargo Cafeteria. At a meeting last week, 200 students, mostly members of Clifford Furnas College, protested against the coffeehouses in Fargo Cafeteria, their “living room” was being taken away. CFC Communication Coordinator Jim Wegman said the irate students were determined to preserve the’ atmosphere maintained by the college. Clifford Furnas was envisioned as a residential college designed to promote spontaneity in student interaction. Using their cafeteria for unrelated programs would constitute undue interference, college supporters contend. Hostile Environment Student Association Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel, who is also the Acting President of the Faculty Student Association (FSA), said that Food Service has exclusive control over cafeteria assignments. He said programing could proceed as planned, however, UUAB does not want to enter a hostile environment. Jeffry Lessoff, UUAB Division Director, said there is no other place available on the North Campus for such events. Sub-Board Amherst Division Director Joyce Levin said that in exploring other alternatives, Spaulding Quad Cafeteria was suggested. But, Food Service uses it for catered events and the cafeteria is reserved for two-thirds of the remaining nights of ? the semester, Students for the past year have voiced a desire for “mellow” entertainment on the North Campus. Sub-Board Treasurer Arthur Lalonde asked Judy Castanza, Chairwoman to UUAB Coffeehouse An investigate available facilities. arrangement was made to host the UUAB Coffeehouses Friday nights in the New Wilkeson Pub. Complications over disco bands which performed regularly in the Wilkeson Pub on Friday and Saturday nights to crowds of between 900 and 1200 students, an atmosphere not conducive to coffeehouse style performers had been established. It was agreed upon by Constanza and Assistant Food Service Director Donald Bozak that an alternative location had to be found. The success of the pub clearly demonstrates that a majority of students wanted the disco music and drinking atmosphere. Pn September 30, a meeting was held to discuss the available options. Present were representatives of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), SA, UUAB, the Colleges, Sub-Board, and Food Service. At that time, it was agreed that the location for the coffeehouses would be the Fargo Cafeteria. Another problem arose because Fargo Cafeteria is designed as an extension, the corridor system leading to building seven of Fargo Quadrangle. The locale was not suitable to hold the coffeehouses because admissions are charged and the area was not properly partitioned to allow for this. Food Service suggested that it might be feasible for them to erect a dividing wall. Bozak stressed that this was only a suggestion, not a firm committment. After a review of this year's budget, it was determined that Food Service did not have the monies available for the necessary renovation. themselves into.” CFC is taking a stand against the loss of their study space. He said thaty they were in communication with the office of the Dean of the Colleges and several other colleges who are behind them. CFC Disapproves The matter was then brought to the attention of Facilities Planning and according to Bozak they were against building a wall. Facilities Planning wanted to take an active part in the construction of any wall, though they could not finance it. Bozak added that at this point CFC intervened in the person of College Master Carmello Privetera who was against the construction of a wall. Alan Koslow, CFC Spokesman, said that Food Service has in the past had a policy of asking the college member-residents if they approved of the activities planned- for the buildings. He felt that many colleges di; not really know what they were “getting Meetings are scheduled this week between the concerned parties to try to resolve the problem. If they are unable to problem, Food Service, as the agent responsible for assigning cafeteria space, will have to make the final decision, Bozak said. Food and Vending Service, Linen Service, and the University Bookstore are all divisions of FSA. The FSA Board of Directors is composed of students, faculty, and administrators. UUAB is a division of Sub-Boardwhich disburses more than $300,000 in student activity fees. The Board of Directors is made up of members of the six student governments. Ten new members SASU seats Minority Caucus in Binghamton by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor After more than a year of BINGHAMTON Student Association of the State controversy, the new delegates welcomed ten (SASU) University representing the Third World Caucus into its membership Saturday in Binghamton. The ten delegates were selected from among Third World representatives who attended the Caucus’ first conference last month in Oswego. In other business, SASU budget committee member Lynn Bittner said the organization has nullified last year’s paid $15,000 deficit with membership dues money already is organization the she said this year. Although experiencing cash flow problems, SASU will be $9000 in the black at the end of its fiscal year if all schools which have expressed interest in membership pay their dues. of the delegates was delayed so long, “most of them political.”,* Questionable legality - Lengthy delay Controversy over the seating of the Third World delegates began at SASU’s Canton, New York conference that in April, 1975, when the idea was first introduced. At A delegates. Third World no paractically were time, there resolution calling for the SASU Rules Committee to investigate and report to the membership on the by-law changes necessary to seat ten Third World delegates was passed the following June in Oneonta. It called for the seating of the delegates after the Committee’s report, which did not materialize until this past weekend, seventeen months later. SASU Vice President for Campus Affairs Andy Hugos, a caucus proponent from the beginning, told the membership that there were many reasons why the seating “Basically, there was a lot of resistance to the seating of the delegates,” he explained. Last year’s president, Bob Kirkpatrick, had refused to seat the Third World delegates because they were “apparently illegal,” he said. The resolution drafted by the Rules Committee and approved by the membership last weekend, however, apparently dispels any doubts about legality. The difficulty stemmed from SASU’s relationship with the SUNY Student Assembly, an organization set up, supported and closely regulated by the S.UNY Board of Trustees. The SASU by-laws formally define a SASU member school as a member of the Student Assembly (any SUNY school) that pays SASU dues. Thus, delegates held their SASU seats by virtue of their memberships in the Student Assembly. The Third World delegates could not legally be seated in SASU because the Caucus’s formation had not been approved by the Board of Trustees, and therefore were not members of the Student Assembly. Chapter in history The membership passed a resolution changing the SASU by-laws to allow for seating of special caucus delegates, in addition to other representatives. However, the SASU Executive Committee (which is also the Student Assembly Executive Committee) has also ruled that the delegates can be accepted into the Assembly as well. pointed out that there is precedent on four separate occasions for filling delegate positions not yet approved by the Treasurer; the Vice President for Campus Affairs, Executive Vice President for Community Colleges and the four at-large delegates form the SUNY Community Colleges. He emphasized that just because the Trustees have been especially slow in acting upon the Third World Caucus question, SASU should not allow “them to tell us how to run our organization.” SASU President Frank Jackalone accepted a motion to formally welcome the delegates into the membership, and forwarded a telegram stating such to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer, Jackalone called the seating of the delegates “another chapter„in the history of SASU.” Be prepared It was also noted that about 45,000 students statewide were registered during SASU’s student voter campaign. At 7,000, this University’s registration total of any school. The highest was the registration energies of the Voter Registration Committee, headed by New Paltz delegate Judy Doesschate, Is now being concentrated on voter education, and hopes to distribute through SUNY campus newspapers an eight-page summary of the voting records of all the state and national incumbants now up for reelection. Both Jackalone and SASU Legislative Director Joel Packer said the SUNY budget situation this year is still uncertain, but Packer feels there probably won’t be another tuition increase until next year. “They usually don’t like to raise tuition two years in a row,” he said. But Packer added that the budget situation will “not be good” and that “we should be prepared” for increases in other fees or creation of new ones. SASU will be organizing a student Mobilization Day in Albany October 28 to organize resistance to any further SUNY budget cutbacks, and for voter education. �to do this it Labor unions 9 Sadlowski ‘Lead, not by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor Ed Sadlowski,. Director of 31 of the United District Steelworkers of America (USWA), to approximately 150 spoke enthusiastic steelworkers and local union leaders at Lackawanna’s Polish Home Association last Saturday in his bid for the presidency of the national steel union. Sadlowski has emerged as the nation-wide leader of a rank-and-file movement in the steel union that could topple the present leadership and bring new 'direction and militant trade unionism back into the labor movement. USWA is the largest union in the AFL-CIO, with I Vi million members. “It’s a new day,” Sadlowski said. “More of the same isn’t good enough. It’s time to fight back.” Steelworkers Unemployed Sadlowski pointed to the plight of the more than 250,000 unemployed steelworkers. “The present leadership isn’t doing anything to solve this problem,” he charged. In his South Chicago district with 125,000 union members, as many as 44,000 have ! : been out of work according to Sadlowski. He understood similar problems plagued steelworkers in Buffalo, and said, “We must do more than pass resolutions” to get these people back to work. the Sadlowski advocated reduction of the normal work day to six hours, with no loss in pay. This would be financed by the steel profits of the large companies. The shorter work day would open up new jobs for those out of work, and create more opportunities for workers to move up in job classifications. * 3124 Main St. • - STYLE • • (NEXT TO UNISEX PRECISION • • - .

The Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML) and Foundation are the Playboy assisting in Randall’s case. The doctors say flatly that Randall’s condition can no longer be adequately controlled by conventional medications. Randall has tried them all.

Ah estimated one million Americans suffer from glaucoma, an incurable eye disease that ranks as one of the leading causes of blindness in the U.S. In the past few years, however, marijuana has been found to be an effective treatment for thedisease. These questions are being considered by Walter Gantz of the Communications Speech Department at this university. By means of interviews, Gantz is attempting to measure the extent to which people use the media in opinions in forming elections. The study is aimed at determining the relationship between media analyses of who won the debates and why, and the the conclusions drawn by individuals who turned to those media for comment. Gantz’s contention that there is a high Walter Gantz correlation between the two. ‘The media tells us what’s President’s remark that Eastern nations including important and provide us with an European explanation,” Gantz said. 1 Yugoslavia, Poland, and Romania suspect we then turn to the media are free and autonomous nations, to “help us determine the winner undaunted by Soviet domination, and the reason for his victory.

Despite rain and heavy winds, farmers were busy setting up their stands and sipping steaming cups of coffee. The four long rows of fruit and vegetable stands were an impressive sight. A strong aroma of grapes filled the air, and bushels of tomatoes, carrots, peaches, apples, and other tempting produce lined the aisles. Children and adults alike manned the stands, laughing and chatting in various tongues. After wandering around for a few moments I stopped and spoke with a woman. She told me the farmers came from all over New York, especially from the Buffalo vicinity. She mentioned the Attica, Erie, towns of Newfane, Youngstown, and others. Unable to provide me with much background information, she redirected me to an old-timer who, she said, had faithfully been selling at the market every day for over twenty years. Huckster takeover He greeted me with a strong handshake and introduced himself as Charles H. Brower. A man well into his fifties, clad in gray work pants, and a plaid workshirt, gazed into the distance as he spoke of the changes that had taken place within the last twnety years. He stressed how the “hucksters” had taken over the market. Hucksters, in farm and market lingo, are men who sell produce other than what they grow. They buy, and then retail, produce grown by farmers or produce that has been shipped in from abroad. Brower complained that customers often prefer to buy from the hucksters whosell produce in small quantities rather than from the farmer who sells in bulk, and that selling produce from over-seas enables the huckster to provide the customer with a wider variety of produce. Selling produce at the market is usually a part-time occupation for the huckster to supplement money earned at a full time job. But it is the farmer’s principal livelihood. Brower muttered that the supermarket had taken over the market, but he refused to elaborate. Ain’t nothing like it “Since you mentioned supermarkets, why should a customer prefer to buy here than in a supermarket?” 1 asked. He hobbled over to his stand and picked up a large red delicious apple. “Ma’am,” he said, “This here fruit is right fresh from the farm. There ain’t nothing like it nowhere!” He explained that the produce at the market is of far better quality than that of a supermarket, that there is a larger quantity of produce, and a better selection. He said a quart of apples bought at the market would be one third less than the supermarket price. Farther down the aisle were many pumpkins, some elaborately decorated for Halloween. Their enormous size made them appear deformed and thus they attracted a lot of attention. The sweet smell of parsley clung to the air and a little girl with wide eyes played hide-n-seek from behind a mass of flower pots. Want some? I was stopped by three middle-aged men huddled together in the back of a truck, passing around a bottle of whiskey. In broken English, they asked if I would care for some, but I declined the offer and was instead handed a bunch of concord grapes. One of them said he made wine fromathe grapes which he once attempted to sell at the market, but was turned away due to a strict law forbidding the sale of alcoholic beverages. To their right was a man selling cheeses, surprising because he seemed to be the only one doing so. He explained that cheese and poultry were formally sold in abundance at the market, but that recently a law had been passed proclaiming the sale of poultry illegal, one reason being customer complaints of diseased meat. Parking problem Our discussion was suddenly interrupted by loud cursing and horn honking. “Get out of my spot, 1 had it first,” a man screamed. “Who the hell do you think you are ordering around, and what do you mean you had it first!” the other shouted back. Customers and people from nearby stalls gathered around, to watch the argument. The two rivals itnalty agreed to let a couple they both knew decide the outcome of the dispute. One last curse was heard and some of the crowd muttered as it dispersed. The nature of the argument was confusing because there seemed to be more than enough space to house both gentlemen. A woman with long red braids and freckles explained that, of the four rows, the second and third are thought to attract the most customers, and often if there is an abandoned spot in one of them, a dispute arises. When I asked her how it is determined, who is placed where, she told me to speak with a man named Tom Towers' Towers comes from Youngstown and has been on the board of directors of the market since it opened. He and his relatives grow three quarters of the fruit there. Free enterprise Towers began by saying that the market Was Clinton-Bailey produce founded in 1922, having evolved from the old Elk Street produce market. As more farmers became eager to sell at the Elk Street market, their numbers were too great for the available space. A group of growers bought the land that is now the produce market, forming a grower-owned cooperative. The farmers*' market works under the principles of free enterprise, and appeals to independent farmers, many of whom are of European eastern Europeans, Poles, descent Italians, Germans, Russians, and others. Some of the farmers sell on a daily basis, market receipts being their sole income. OtheVs come on the weekends and still others make only a rare appearance at the market. Towers viewed the emergence of hucksters into market life as a good thing, because the huckster is able to sell a larger variety of crops in smaller quantities, thereby attracting more people to the market who will also buy from the farmer. His only concern was that the person who sells infrequently may not be concerned about the upkeep of quality and will sell the customer something other than grade number one produce. organizations The winter season is rough because aside from fighting the cold, Tower said, one has to deal with the frustration, of those hurt by a large drop in sales. It is a problem as old a3 f .rming itself and the growers of Clinton-Bailey deal with it by helping one another to keep in high spirits. He said that sales still did not match those of the times when grocery stores were their major clientele. Million dollar intake The space is rented out on a yearly, monthly, weekly, or daily basis. It costs $165.00 a year per stall (selling space) and those who rent on a yearly' basis have first choice of selling spots. It is the few unclaimed spots in the second and third rows that are the source of disputes. This year there are 180 grower leases and between 35 and 40 huckster leases. Towers was unsure of the market’s annual intake, but was certain that it was over a million He spoke of some of the problems faced by the small scale farmer today. Besides the usual problems of crop destruction by raccoons, woodchucks and insects, a major concern was that of industry taking over small farm communities or small town interests. One example he cited was a racetrack proposed by developers that would infringe on the land of the farming community in Youngstown. The Youngstown farmers have struggled to keep their property out of commercial hands, and for the present time the land will remain theirs; however, there is always the fear of trouble in the future. openly Another major concern community is the farming the expressed by plant, chemical reprocessing of a presence CHEM-TROL, which recycles or disposes of chemical wastes such as mercury, arsenic, and pesticides that are sent from A cold winter dealt across the country. The runoff from these When the market first opened, it It chemicals is causing air pollution and in primarily with small grocery stores. of the time it is feared that the pollution will suffered from the destruction but spread to the land and water.

The Spectrum . Page five �Editorial Coffeehouse dilemma The long awaited arid heavily demanded coffeehouse program at the Ellicott Complex of the Amherst Campus might be coming to an abrupt halt with its sponsor, the University Union Activities Board (UUAB), almost powerless to act. Clifford Furnas College (CFC) has voiced strong objections to the staging of coffeehouses in the Fargo Quad Cafeteria, located on the ground floor of the buildings in which they reside. The coffeehouses are scheduled for four hours, 8:30 p.m.-12;30 a.m., Friday evenings, and CFG feels that such a schedule would severely interfere with its collegiate programs. At a meeting of concerned parties held last week, over 200 students, mostly CFG members, objected to losing "their living room" and study lounge. This prompted the director of Food Service, who is responsible for assigning cafeteria space for activities, to ask in all sincerity, "How many people study from 8:30—12:30 on Friday nights?" Many of the 3400 students who live TRB on the Amherst Campus, including some college members have expressed a desire for weekend activities on their campus. One can only ask, why can't CFG students study in a library one night a week like so many other students at this University? CFG also complained that the coffeehouse would restrict access to its rooms from other parts of the Ellicott Complex this, But too, is a lame excuse for eliminating the coffeehouses since Food Service and UUAB can easily design some alternate of access method by merely . placing temporary partitions around the coffeehouse area Running Hard In a couple of weeks, the pundits who are telling us now who’s ahead will suddenly be telling us about “the next four years.” It will be quite a relief. So let’s imagine what happens if Jerry Ford wins; and then Jimmy Carter. If Ford wins, it’s as close to certainty as politics get that he will face a Democratic Congress. Congress is presently overwhelmingly Democratic, and problably will remain so. In 1974 Democrats gained 43 seats; 78 Democratic freshmen out of 79 are running again. In the Mouse, it’s 290 145. In the Senate, 61 37 (plus two independents Harry Byrd of Virginia who’s to the right of McKinley, and Buckley of New York who’s to the right of Byrd.)

In short, then, with a Ford win we shall have two and probably four more years of divided government: vetoes, deadlocks, stalemates; White House pulling right. Congress left. Mr. Ford, from the start, will be a lame duck; he has served half a presendential term and under the 22nd Amendment, can’t run again. (Republicans passed the 2-term restriction to~spite FDR’s memory and it straightway stood up and bit them; at any rate, if they had nominated General Eisenhower for the third time in 1960, he undoubtedly would have won.) Being a lame duck shouldn’t bother Mr. Ford much at least not in the first two years; he’s no activist anyway; it might diminish his influence a bit in the last two years as talk swung round to his successor. He might make one, perhaps two. Supreme Court appointments. And his successor ? Most likely Vice President Dole; if your ideal for 1980 is Bob, vote for Jerry now. Mr. Ford has vetoed 61 bills in two years (with 12 overrides). If elected, we guess this will continue; with Democrats throwing ideas at him and the President batting them back, particularly things like health insurance, aid to cities, or anything much that threatens the established world of things as they are.In summary, Mr. Ford would seem to be an ideal four-year guard against restless change and nobody, has put it better than he did in the first debate; “We have a Congress today, and fortunately we’ve had a Republican President to check their excesses with my vetoes.” Mr. Ford, we assume, would keep present economic advisers or recruit more like them; Andrew Mellon would be at home with them.

Monday, 18 October 1976 stock market hit an airpocket, Walter Heller says the economy is “wasting $150 billion a year it could have if unemployment were down, not to 3 percent, but only to 5 percent.” We assume that hasn’t damped the ardor of business men, however, for attractive, predictable, uncomplicated, Mr. Ford. All right; so what if Jimmy wins? It’s hard to say. We’ll come back to the personality question later. On party linemp the U.S. will have, for the firsf time since 1968, a president and Congress of the same party; America has had a divided government for 14 of the past 22 years. Even with united control in Washington, of course, a presidential honeymoon doesn’t last long. But a lot can be done in a short time. There is a chance (at least a chance) that we would have a rare period of undsual legislative productivity. They do not come regularly under our jerky system but more often in spurts, in pulses, about once every dozen years. The Congress just over, the 94th, was the most progressive potentially in. a decade. Its record is extraordinarily slim. This, of course, was due to the two-thirds barrier to over-riding a veto. No other democracy could see its lower legislative house support a housing bill, 268-F57, and fail; a $5.3 billion emergency jobs program, 277-145, and fail; a bill requiring strip mine operators to restore despoiled land, 278-143, and fail; or the Senate back a 600,000 job public works bill, 63-35, and fail. We are used to it, and take it for granted. It baffles • foreigners So, maybe, the most immediate*effect of a Carter victory would be to open the door for the fourth or fifth time this century to a back-up logjam of social welfare and reform legislation that might come tumbling through: health insurance, maybe (Truman urged it long ago); welfare reorganization; an energy program; desperately needed aid for the cities, and so on. The last big legislative burst was in the 89th Congress, 1965-66. That one passed the voting rights act; general aid to education; aid to mass transit; aid to cities; Medicare other landmarks. Lyndon -Johnson said that historians would call it “the best Congress in the history of this nation the Great Congress.” He like hyperbole. Jimmy Carter could get elected and still blow it, of course. The opportunity is there. But his drive to the White House raises questions; some of his acts as candidate would damage his chances as President. The PLAYBOY affair was tasteless. His ferocious attacks on Ford are strange for one who features compassion. He said, “Gerald Ford has hidden himself from the public even more than Richard Nixon at the depths of Watergate.” This is dangerous overkill tor a man who wants to be President of all the poeple. He must plead, wheedle, cajole, persuade, explain it he hopes to lead Congress and the country into new ways. The election’s final days, in fact, could stand a dash ol Adlai Stevenson, the man who said, let’s talk sense to the American people.” He did not try to destroy adversaries as well as defeat them. He lost (nobody could beat Ike) but some of his savor remains: “What counts now,” he told convention delegates at Chicago in 1952, “is not what we are against , but what we are for. Who leads us is less important kherv what leads us . .And he said. There is such a thing as running so hard for an office as to disqualify yourself for it.” .. .. — — �Developing community spirit To the Editor Campus A few weeks ago, an article appeared in tThe Spectrum concerning the apathy of the students on campus. In retrospect, a ground (very basic) solution should eminate from the solution of this state. Presently, I am situated in the Rathskeller listening to Peter Frampton skip constantly over and over, for the third time, while I grit in my seat. Along with that I frown with the selection of tunes that are played from the “box” itself (which are dated to begin with). 1 feel since the Amherst Campus has its noted Entertaining Pubs that due appreciation be respected to those who reside in or near the Main Street Campus. 1 would like to propose to the Student Association, a new sound system in the Rathskeller with a prevailing FM station (QFM, BUF, etc.) as the central basis for weekday musical entertainment (or even weekends, for that matter). I realize that various questions will arise concerning the revenue lost from the Juke Box, and articles concerning amplification in Norton Union. But the Rat is a central basis on the Main Street Upstate/ downstate stupidity and many commuters, off campus, Amherst Campus, Main Street Campus students, frequently “visit” the place from opening till closing. What I am proposing isn’t really a complete solution to the “livening-up” matter but it may offer some students a' place to reside in “comfort”, fot a few enjoyable minutes without having to bay added money fot musical entertainment or hours of silence (the beer prices are bad enough!). This campus desparately needs a place to “hang-out” for the release of the scholarly tension. Why “force” students to seek out their enjoyment elsewhere (Mulligans, Broadway Joes, Library, or even their dorm radios). Why not offer the students something which is run by students on campus. This campus has so many untapped resourceful assets that they don’t know where to begin! One should take, a look at Buff State’s atmosphere in their union. Surely I’m not trying to make a vast issue of the ordeal, but, we must try to make the best of our lives here. So, I figure “Why not the Rat Our home base!” — To the Editor. — I was most upset with Harold Goldberg’s review of Southside Johnny in Friday’s issue of The Spectrum. I found a thread running through this article which perverted its explicit purpose: that damn upstate-vs.-downstate idiocy. 1 thought that The Spectrum had, for the last year, been moving away from accepting articles that helped to prolong and foster this stupid state of mind. Yet they allowed a person like Mr. Goldberg to see his own simple-minded stereotypes to label the audience at this performance. He came just a hair away from referring to these dumb Buffalo Polaeksor rich Long Island Jews. 1 only wonder, what happened to the — — jokes? Taking the above into account, it is easy to see why the review of the group itself was so bad. Instead of Mr. Duncan’s review of the UUAB Nils Lofgren concert, which was a detailed criticism of the performance, Mr. Goldberg prefers to leave us with a general feeling that this was a “good” concert. Unfortunately, this appears to be because the group represented symbols which were both pleasing and familiar to him, not because the performance itself was any good. With this in mind, it is difficult.to believe, should Mr. Goldberg’s parting shot at UUAB music be taken to heart, that it would really benefit anyone other than those with equally narrow — ' Matt Lohergan Stifled Norton narcissism To the Editor In response to “a student with wet hands and uncombed hair,” I would just like to bring to his attention the following: I don’t speak for the Undergraduate Library, but as far as Norton Hall goes, there is no organized plot to get students. Maintenance didn’t remove the mirrors just to give you another aggravation. They were removed this summer when some person went berserk and smashed every mirror he could find. Now he gets twenty-eight years of bad luck and you get no mirror. Simply stated, Norton Hall has a choice: spend money to employ maintenance men or keep replacing broken mirrors, etc. The choice is obvious. outlooks. If one to a reporting purports to be constituency as large and varied as that of this University, then it must be with a degree of intelligence and care that this was without.

I am sure every rational being here is glad to have a group who’s purposes are to insure the physical well-being of students, faculty, and university traffic employees; protect personal property, control, and enforcement of the ‘Law’ on campus. It seems, however, that Security is not pleased with its image up to this point in time. Why not? 1 find their uniforms esthetically pleasing, their vehicles are most impressive, and I find most of the officers.to be congenial and helpful. Much of their time is wasted unnecessarily. Some students take advantage of the liberties offered through dorm life. I am sure everyone has heard the rauccous cacaphony of a fire 1 alarm at three in the morning, arid implored God, Security, and the courts to dispatch the evil doer to some distant wasteland. Seriously, one must question Security’s sincerity about cementing relations based on trust and respect, with the student body. In none of the Sexism in Johnson's Starting this week, every, student at the University will be getting a student directory. The directory was made possible by the sweat and hard work of a lot of students, staff, faculty and administrators at this school. It was made possible financially by the advertisers who supported it. To these many people, I would like to say thanks. literature given to students has there been any mention of undercover security officers on campus, yet everyone has surely identified them stalking our halls. If there has existed a common opinion that Campus Security officers are mere “rent-a-cops,” it is only because of their (and the Administration’s) failure to properly inform and educate the students. This is most disheartening, considering the fact that they deal solely with transgressions of the university community. With such education, I am sure Security would not feel the impotence expressed in Wednesday’s article. I am extremely curious about the “bad incident” of 1965 involving sidearms. What the hell happened? , Do many people know there is active legislation to arm Security again? What about the K-9 patrol’s noble hounds; when and where are they employed? If Security would genuinely open up to the student body, rather’ than offering a public relations ploy such as the pilot-100 program, I am sure they would find the friends they “sorely need.” Mark Teitelb'aum P.S. Distribution is beginning this week. Starting October 29, copies will be available in the S.A. office, 205 Norton,, for students who have yet to receive one. Please be patient. "FORP IS ROCKEP BY A LEFT THE JAW CARTER TAKES A HARP RIGHT TP THE MOUTH BOTH MEN ARE HURTING — — —" Steve Lojacono defense To the Editor. The current campaign to defend Kenneth Johnson in his pending multiple rape trial is an illogical and misguided attempt to create a political issue out of what is, in fact, a relatively straightforward criminal prosecution. Mr. Johnson was arrested because he met the description given by a number of rape victims. The circumstances of his arrest appear to involve unscrupulous and perhaps illegal behavior on the part of the Buffalo police, and objections to the arrest are well founded. But no matter how strenuously Johnson’s defense committee objects to. the arrest, we cannot let this obscure fact that he was identified by at least two rape victims as their assailant, when brought face to face with them. This identification is certainly sufficient evidence to warrant a trial in order to determine Johnson’s guilt or innocence. The defense committee has argued, in a number of pamphlets distributed in Norton and elsewhere, that Johnson is the victim of a traditional racist frameup in which black men are unfairly railroaded into jail for raping white women. Nonetheless, as the defense committee will admit, all six women raped in the short period of time early last winter claim their assailants were black. Thus the committee is faced with a dilemma; on one hand the rapist was unquestionably black, on the other hand any black man accused of these rapes is victim of an historical conspiracy. While Johnson’s supporters are ostensibly concerned with justice clear of all prejudicial bias, it is interesting to note that the defense fund which they so willingly support is guilty of sexist slurs and innuendo. Private investigators for the defense are canvassing the neighbors of the helpless women raped at gunpoint and asking such questions as “did she like to drink a lot?, take drugs?; did she have wild parties?; did she like to go out with black men?” These questions, entirely irrelevant to the question of rape, can only have one aim. The repulsive “she was looking for it” argument raises its ugly head, and it is paid for id promoted by those who unwittingly donate money and time to Johnson’s defense committee in the name of justice. We should provide the defendant with a fair trial and an opportunity to clear his name. Why shouldn’t we give equal protection to the rights and reputations of young women raped at the point of a gun? 4JW A'fcteRBl Michael Kaye Monday, 18 October 1976 . The Spectrum .

Several branches of the Defense Department, woman abducted by the Iroquois according to Science Digest magazine, are funding research projects with an eye to putting psychic powers to work for the military. The Navy is reportedly interested in people who can “view” potential military targets over great distances with their mental powers alone. Studies that indicate thaf some individuals, like Uri Geller, can use their psychic talents to bend objects or erase tapes are also under scrutiny from the Pentagon, the magazine reports. interests in the form of independent study courses.

Creative initiative A different kind of independent project exists in the various departments physical sciences. Labeled senior research, it offers students the opportunity to apply textbook knowledge by placing them in a laboratory situation. Biology major Glenn Nedwin is involved in such a program. Aided by a professor and graduate student, Nedwin is investigating the possible acute and chronic effects of cerium and platinium, the chemicals emitted from gasoline and catalytic converters installed in cars for the purpose of reducing air pollution. Although this device is already in use, how it affects people has not yet been determined. Nedwin’s project is being funded by a grant from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and focuses on biochemical effects. Students in the Psychology Department, also funded by EPA, are studying the behavioral effects of the chemicals. By observing the. . — studies?

Craftsmen in Teotihuacan Dr. Barbour, an anthropology professor, is working closely with students interested in archeology, studying the society of Teotihuacan, a city in Mexico circa 400 AD. It was made up of about 200 people and centered on craft workshops. Barbour is examining the fingerprints on clay figurines to determine the sex of the craftsmen. He feels it might have been the most important city in North America at that time. The determination of which sex was responsible for the production of these figurines could lead to information concerning their function By in society. understanding the way in which they were produced, and for what purpose, Barbour hopes to gain insight into the organization of Teotihuacan, and determine it’s cultural influence in Mexico. To study the finger prints and discover their origin, they must first be transferred to a laytex mold. Under a microscope the mold is analyzed and the width between the ridges in the print is measured. A feminine print has ridges which are close together and uniform while a masculine print contains wider ridges more loosely structured. The undergraduates working with Barbour are involved in all phases of the research, including the development of the mold to observe the print as well as the actual measurements and determinations. As Barbour said, “They are right there close to the frontier.” — Any spare skeletons in the closet? Will doctors and dentists soon be resorting to the time-tested methods of Victor von Frankenstein in gaining material for their Hey shmuck, got any ideas how to shut us up? Student politicians, college presidents and boring professors plagued by hecklers might do well to follow the advice of two British researchers who studied the art of defending oneself against catcalls. The worst possible defense is to make irrelevant answers that sound like the speaker is upset, they found, and the next best method is to simply ignore the noise altogether. They discovered heckling can never help a speaker make a point, despite what some politicos believe, and that the best possible defense is to have no hecklers at all. tissues and organs of mice injected with these chemicals, he hopes to determine their effect on protein synthesis, and DNA. The possible immunilogical response of the body is also one of his concerns.

Stein, a member of the University Student Affairs Staff since 1967, has been associate director of the Office of Student Affairs since 1968. He will replace Dr. Thomas K. Craine, who is ona one-year leave from the presidentail assistant's post to serve as assistance vice president for . academic affairs. . On the Frontier Mike Mercer, a senior in the department of geological sciences, is right on the frontier. Taking samples and running lab tests, he hopes to uncover information concerning the advancement of glaciers in the Western New York region. The site of his experiments is in Alden, where two tils divided by a gravelly layer have been discovered on the bank of Ellicott Creek. A til is formed as a glacier retreats and is made up of a ground soil type matrix. By analyzing the texture, density, color, carbonate content, size, and structure of samples taken from the til, Mercer hopes to learn whether these tils came from the same glacial advancement which deposited the first til, then receded, and advanced again, depositing the second. Further lab tests will determine the time between the two advances and how far back they reteded (if it is discovered that the glacier did recede). The Til’s position in the history of glaciation, and its possible correlation with other tils in the Western New York area are other questions to be answered through this independent study project. Independent programs are very easy to arrange. Professors don’t turn down a request unless they are burdened with bureaucratic responsibilities, or are involved with a large number of students. It is a great way to pursue personal goals and graduation requirements at the same time. �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor terminated their contracts for not doing research. Does that make sense? Think for a moment now. Would you hire a man to mow your lawn and then fire him for not painting the house? Of course not. You’re not dumb. That’s because you’re not a state agency. State agencies are required by law to do things in the stupidest way possible, unless there is an emergency, extreme or hell freezes over. This University hired two men to coach varsity sports and teach gym courses, and then The two men, soccer coach Sal Esposito and hockey coach Ed Wright, were denied tenure and were then notified that their contracts would not be renewed. Both were victims of the bureaucratic mess which every state agency finds itself engulfed in. There are a seemingly infinite number of rules and regulations which quite often do not accomplish what they were intended to. Excellent or not? In the case of Esposito and Wright, they ran up against a rule which is designed to weed out the poorer professors from the excellent ones. Professors that do research and are highly thought of by others in their field are usually given tenure. Esposito and Wright are both excellent professors and coaches, and are highly thought (of by those in their field, but were probably because the rules for granting tenure specify that research is the not given tenure, main criterion. The fact that both Esposito and Wright are excellent coaches was- demonstrated by last year’s records. The hockey team made the playoffs for the first time in several years, and the soccer team was ranked in State’s top ten last year for the first time ever. Both men are well respected by their peers. Wright was recently named Vice-President of the New York College Hockey Association. Esposito has been a soccer rules interpreter in the Atlantic Coast conference, and served as an official scorer in the 1970 NAIA National Championship. To most people, this would constitute a standard of excellence worth keeping, but the administration has its rules, which it apparently is not willing to bend. So the two coaches, who Weren’t hired to do research, who were never told to do research, who didn’t have time to do research, and who didn’t have the opportunity to do research, were penalized for not doing research. Hail bureaucracy! But aside from all this, athletic teams benefit from a year-to-year continuity. Coaches must recruit players, arrange schedules and perform other mundane tasks, which affect future years’ teams, a lot more so than a' chemistry professor affects future years’, chemistry lectures. effect.

There is an appeals process, Not just coaches but Esposito realistically Apparently, the bureaucrats that run things around here also don’t realize that as long as the research requirements are not abolished, it is not going to .be difficult to hire quality coaches. expect to gain anything by going through it. Bullpen reports that there would not be a soccer or hockey coach next year, and hence no teams in those sports, Former Buffalo basketball coach Ed Muto admitted that he would not be willing to return to if the coaching research requirement for tenure were in didn’t erroneous, since this University is allowed to fill 90 were percent of its vacancies.

Last year’s overall finalists wery the Clits and QB 714, and these two teams ramain on top in their respective divisions, but it hasn’t been easy. Last week, in a thriller, the N.Y. Clits edged Y. Greudel 13-12, surviving a last minute scare when Clit quarterback Paul Dimiero was nearly thrown for a safety. This would have given the game to Y. Greudel, but even though most of Dimiero’s body was in the endzone, the ball did not cross the goal line, thus preserving the victory for the Clits. The Clits lead with a 3-0 record with the Pathogems period. The S.H. Panthers are also 2-0 and the Reamers are 1-1. Both teams are capable of pulling upsets, but at the moment, it seems doubtful. In the Tuesday 3:30 league, Quail is on top at 3-0, with Huth Road 2-1. These two teams meet tomorrow, and even though Quail has been very impressive, Huth Road could surprise if quarterback Jeff Jacobawitz can get his offense going, but don’t bet on it.

Leary's appearance was sponsored by the- Student Association Bureau. Leary did not come here to talk about drug use or abuse,, past or present. He spoke, rather, in the name of change, “the key to the genetic code migration, mutation, metamorphosis, molting.... change.” Stressing the importance of technology, particularly quantum physics, Leary urged his listeners to leave the planet earth and fly with him to the moon. A question asked by many as they sat, speechless, or as they left the Fillmore Room, buzzing with incredulous talk and laughter, was, “How credible is this S.M.I.L.E., this space colonization, and is this man for real?” Perhaps the question should have been posed in reverse order. To begin with, Timothy Leary is “very for real.” The man was and still is a brilliant scholar, regardless of his innumerable LSD experiences and subsequent affairs with federal and California State penal authorities. His current program for the future is neither new nor original; it is imbued with eminent scientific backing and not simply the burnt ramblings of a man who has taken acid countless thousands of times. .. . S.M.I.L.E Migration, Space S.M.I.L.E. stands for Intelligence Increase and Life Extention. Stated simply, a new breed of “turned on engineers” will construct “ten or twenty or thirty” mile long cylinders with full life-support systems capable of carrying up to ten thousand people, and will then blast these spaceships off, either to the moon, or to eternal space, for at least ten years at,a time. When space colonies have been established, life extention will become feasible, even up to 800 human years, according to Leary. Sound incredible, acid crazy, Spock-like in appearance? Leary must have had his own doubts about how a “literate, college audience” would receive his space program. He first proposed it on a somewhat cautious and mockingly defensive note, comparing its unveiling to the question he had often asked audiences of the 1960s, “Do you know that you can alter your consciousness?” When he imitated that audiences’ responses of believing in only two states of consciousness “one he suddenly bared sleeping and the other awake” his teeth in a short, demonic, “we all know better than that" laugh. Obviously planned, but very well it produced much executed aud very effective laughter and applause, evoking perhaps more than a few thoughts of past “altered consciousness” — - - experiences. Power trips The space program allegedly originated with one of the new breed of engineers, a physicist named Gerard O’Neil, who ip ld6d asked his students, “Is the surface of the earth large enough to contain a continued accelerated rate of technology? After much research, his students answered "No." O'Neil blueprinted the cylinder, although Leary offered very few specifics about its interior mechanics or about the nature of its populace. He did admit, however, when speaking upstairs to a much smaller group of people, that the corruption and so-called power trips characteristics of today's world would not be left behind on tomorrow’s space excursions. “Quantum physics is developing theories of consciousness farther out than any Hindu or Buddhist guru strolling around the lecture circuit these days,” said Leary, thus perpetuating the Emotions are secondary Was he in fact dismissing the consciousness altering movement which he perpetuated in the 1960s at least through the use of LSD, or was he accepting it as inherently taken for granted in the minds of today’s “turned on engineers?” “I’m flatly in favor of technology,” he reiterated strongly. “Technology is an extention of the central nervous system. Emotions are secondary I have no faith in altered or higher consciousness without intelligence.” Leary’s account of the migratory tendencies of Western civilization from its inception was very general and abstract, from the “great trip stories” of Homer and Virgil, to the “great migrations” of Renaissance European explorers to the Americas, and then to the “shaking and quaking” of the people who settled the American West. A migratory apex was readied with the settling of Hollywood, California “20 or 30 or 40 or 50 years ago,” - according to Leary. At this point, he casually mentioned the title of his talk: American Culture from 1945 to 1985, and quickly proceeded to cite Gravity’s Rainbow by Thomas Pynchqn, as “one of the most important books written by an American in the 20th century.” > Battle of priorities Pynchon termed World War 1 a “testing ground” of superpower technology, while World War II was a “battle of priorities,” featuring “atomic fission vs. rockets.” Leary continued that Pynchon felt World War II would be a “warfare for space.” When he said, **. . . those born after 1945 can well be described as coming from a different species,” Leary in effect led into talk of the 1960s, terming them a “glorious and explosive decade.” “Veterans of the 1960s,” he said slowly, “area notable lot.” The attentive audience laughed when he said in either mock or real seriousness, “We should have clubhouses for the veterans of the ’60s, just as we have for world war or Foreign Legion veterans.” He stunned some people when he said, “Woodstock was necessary . . . three days of sliding in the mud on downers,” neglecting to mention that as many or more people took LSD as “did down” during the festival. “Drugs are not important,” Leary stressed. “The bottom line of the 1960s was the consciousness movement,” he continued, in effect placing himself very low on any sociological or political scale. While Leary spent more than a few minutes emphasizing the voyages of the Greeks and Romans and other examples of migratory tendencies, he could only briefly describe the collective mentality of the present post-sixties generation, making vague references to drugs and other consciousness altering agents. “This generation takes consciousness for granted,” he said. “People have the head they want right now and they know how to change it.” He then proceeded into his space migration project. Leary claimed that he has “nothing more to do with the use of illegal drugs, including LSD,” upon being questioned by one student. However, when the student asked if he would trip again if and when LSD became legal, he responded, “Yes.” This answer drew more applause from the audience than did any other remark made by Leary. He was trying to convey, perhaps, that, in all probability, he is now under constant surveillance by the FBI and other law enforcement agencies. Leary did not make clear the role of LSD or of the people who have taken LSD, on his spaceship sylinders. Are they the chosen few, the "genetically mutated” few, who will man the ships and colonize the moon and the heavens, in their midst that large selection of “turned on engineers,” his elite of psychedelic intelligencia? Friday, 15 October 1976 �Liars and politicians Presidential debates help sort the candidates by R. Gilbert Spectrum Staff Writer The common feeling among a large segment of the American public is that politicians lie, more specifically, that they lie incessently and are never to be trusted. The mass media, however, gives this wide-spread feeling merest lip service, and only in the most blatant cases is a politician’s integrity questioned. This, unfortuately, is not due to any lack of information, or journalistic inability to discern deception. It is due to a common that acceptance political “waffling” on an issue. This pronouncements are not designed misses the point, and leads to the to inform, but to cajole. Simple usual controversy over who was political is so the most “unsure,” and therefore deception likely to be the most “indecisive” that widespread it is no longer leader. capable of providing controversy. The implicit assumption is that It is too simplistic, however, to these deceptions, distortions and merely assert that politicians lie, inaccuracies, at best, reflect a and it is not altogether true. candidate’s lack of darby on a Politicians do lie certainly, but for topic; he is uncertain until proven the people who keep close tabs on a liar. But there is more here than the situation, taking into account who is hieing spoken to, and in meets the eye. Candidates, in what context, the rules for order to obtain big money and importantly, high-level political distortion and falsehood more support, must develop some are not too complex. Once program to run the country that is known, they permit the seasoned acceptable to these sources of observer to separate political fact support to insure their continued from political expedience.

Both supported Israel and American actions to “prevent bloodshed” in Rhodesia. The most controversial area of “disagreement” concerned the famous Ford contention that Poland and other parts of Eastern were not Europe Soviet dominated. Considering Ford’s ideological background, it is more than clear that this was merely a stupid over-reaction and defensiveness on Ford’s part to charges that the Helsinki agreement gained with Russia “gave away” Eastern Europe to the Reds. - — questions, manipulating facts, omitting the salient points in an issue, and using outright deception. far The mass media often goes so as to call these tactics proper way to keep oiir country and its ecomonic system — — running well. Debates useful Debates are one way to engage figure, rather than Ralph Nader, who is greatly more representative of voter concerns. But Nader just doesn’t have the influence that counts in American politics. In many fact, actual conclusions can be drawn in analyzing a Presidential debate, conclusions that are hopefully of more worth than predictions as to who “won,” a point determined solely be appearances in any case, and largely irrelevent with regard to the issues. First, to whom were the candidates speaking in the debate? In most cases, a speech given in a certain region, or at a specific luncheon, is tailored to the particular groups interest represented there. This is done by choice of topic, manner of presentation, and, as always, lying. In the debates, the audience composition was a close The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only the summer during by The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc.

In the most recent confrontation (concerning foreign policy), the context of Jimmy Carter’s “loss” of the first debate in the opinion polls, which created a need for him to ameliorate the “causes” for that loss: an initial nervousness, proposals plainly unrealistic as he stated them, and his generally vague statements. Regarding the most recent “foreign policy and national defense” face-off, two basic items of interest emerged. Most importantly. Carter and Ford, despite superficialities, differed not a mite on overall policy objectives. Disagreements superficial The clashes in this area were generally based on Carter’s contention that the Ford Administration had made little or no progress with relations abroad, and that he had displayed a lack of leadership in permitting Secretary of State Henry Kissinger to become “President of Foreign Policy.” Ford, as usual, could only repeat assertations of his experience and intentions in the future. Demonstrating their identical positions both favored a strong posture defense and more I. R. C. presents Differ on methods Qf importance, however, was a difference of opinion going beyond basic policy. This revolved around the “public image” of the United States. Carter continually hammered at the away Administration’s secrecy, heavy-handedness, disregard for human rights, and covert political involvement abroad. Behind this is no concern for foreign the victims of American-supported dictatorships. More self-servingly is the fear that practices such as the above will create more opposition at home and aborad than they could possibly repress. In a nutshell, the antiwar movement cost us too much for what the United States got; nothing. New methods and tactics are needed to obtain American objectives. The debates are not meaningless in that, in their way, they reflect the reality of American politics. American ruling circles, deeply divided over domestic problems and how to solve them (as reflected in the first debate), are fairly unified in their support of existing foreign policy, but differ on the comparitively minor issue of tactics. In the mass media mode, one might well conclude by asking, who won the debate? It is certainly not the American people, who are now no more well informed than they have ever been.

Reverse discrimination bias against white males as a result of programs geared for minorities or women has been charged in over a dozen suits ipthe past few years. With stiffer competition for jobs and school admissions, some white males have argued that their constitutional rights are violated when policies in hiring or education give preference to minorities. It’s no secret that the Supreme Court hasn’t been eager to take a stand on the dispute. In fact, the court has declined to hear several such cases, or ruled on technicalities that avoided the key points. But appeals to the high court appear likely on several cases this year. As the issue has grown more heated, the legal status of reverse discrimination has become even more confusing. State supreme courts have lined up on opposite sides of the question. Some justices have maintained that the Fourteenth Amendment, which bars racial discrimination, applies to white males as well as minority groups. Others contend that because of past discrimination, resulting in a shortage of blacks and women in some jobs and colleges, affirmative action is a just tool for promoting equality. Although no one can be certain about how the U.S. Supreme Court .will act, the recent conservative trend on the bench indicates that reverse discrimination may be banned. Last year, the court ruled, in McDonalds vs. the Santa Fe Trail Transportation Co., that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 “is not limited ta discrimination against any particular race.” In that Texas case, the court said it was unfair to discharge white employees accused of a crime when blacks were not discharged also, x However, the case most likely to settle the issue of reverse discrimination involves a student who was denied admission to the University of California at Davis Medical School. The university’s quota for minority admissions was recently ruled unconstitutional by the California Supreme Court. The court concluded that the program “afforded preference on the basis of race to persons who, by the university’s own standards, are not as - — - — Chaotic IRC faces this year Cohen’s resignation qualified for the study of medicine as non-minority applicants denied admission the equal protection clause applies to any person, and its lofty purpose is incompatible with the premise that some races be afforded a higher degree of protection against unequal treatment than others.” The University of .California, which would be forced to restructure its admissions program because of the decision, plans to appeal the case to the U.S. Supreme Court, according to University General . .. Counsel Donald Reidhaar. Reidhaar also said that the circumstances \yill “very likely force the (Supreme) Court to take this case and resolve the issue once and for all.” Nevertheless, other state courts have sharply disagreed with the California verdict. In DeFunisvs. Odegaard, the Washington Supreme Court ruled it was constitutional for a law school “to remedy racial imbalance through its minority admissions policy.” It held that a university could accept some qualified minority candidates with lower grades and test scores and reject other applicants who would have been admitted had they been minorities. In another case, the New York Court of Appeals allowed “benign discrimination” which favored minority admissions to a state medical school. “It would be ironic,” said the court, “were the equal protection clause used to strike down measures designed to achieve real equality for persons whom it was intended to aid.” In Colorado, a U.S. District Court judge ruled that a school can legally select which minority groups in the population merit special consideration on the basis of past discrimination and under-representation in the law profession. In that case, a student denied admission to the University of Colorado sued on the grounds that as an Italian-American he should be given the same special treatment as blacks and Chicanos. As decisions for both sides of the dispute continue to pile up, the fate of many of the innovative affirmative action programs hang in the balance. At the same time, statistics show that, since the economic recession, blacks and women have been making little progress towards more jobs and higher income. While justices may debate the constitutionality of reverse bias, no one can debate the fact that a ruling against affirmative action policies would at least slow down the movement towards economic and social equality. IMCHAS TORAH “BLAST” Saturday, October 16th at 8:00 pm Chabad House North Campus and at Chabad House Main St Howard Cohen, President pf the Inter-Residence Council (IRC), resigned this week capping off a tumultuous weekend for the , organization. “internal .Cohen cited bickering” as the major cause of his resignation. Three members of the Executive Board, Executive Vice President Michael Sadowsky, Vice Presdient for Activities Ellen Schwartz and Treasurer Hal Zwick, resigned their posts last week citing actions taken by Cohen as President as one of the reasons. But after a stormy meeting, the three withdrew their resignations. It was not clear at press time how the rules of presidential succession would be implemented. Sadowsky, as Executive Vice President, is currently assuming* the role of President. Questions have been raised as to what would happen in the event of the Howie Cohen President’s resignation and the Executive Vice President not wanting to assume the role. The IRC Main Body Council met in an emerghpcy session Wednesday night to amend the constitution to make provisions covering this eventuality.

The conference, scheduled to discuss the National Day of Student Activism and the organization of the Third World aucus, has been relocated because of an inability to house the delegates at this University, and because of a desire to balance the locations among all the state universities.

Is there anything new to be saidabout marijuana this year Although there are now eight states which have achieved and some reform of their marijuana laws, many others backward, remain with New York State among them State, possession of more York inhuman statutes. In New than one ounce, or sale of any kind, is a Class C Felony punishable by up to 15 years in jail. The way the current law reads, simply passing a joint among friends may be interpreted as a sale. And, according to NORML spokesman Frank Fiormonti, marijuana law enforcement cost New York State taxpayers $60 million last year. The folly in this is obvious: what intelligent person today does not recognize that there is greater harm in prosecuting marijuana convictions, for the defendant, the courts and society, than allowing the user to smoke in peace. We can only conclude that legislators who remain intransigent in the face of reform act either on misinformation or righteous moralization. Eventually, these stubborn legislators must know, the whether they like it or marijuana laws will be softened not Just look at the evidence around us. Hardly anyone who has been in college in the last ten years or so has not had the opportunity at least to try pot. The New York Times reported several months ago that there was a growing number of young professionals who continue to use marijuana the way they did in college. Eventually, these young professionals will become influential in forming public policy, and the antiquated marijuana laws, written on the basis of attitudes formed in the 1930s, will be changed. This is the natural outcome of marijuana use among the middle class. So even though there are many long battles for reform ahead, it is clearly an idea whose time has come. Given this predictable scenario, the only constructive statement to make to college students about marijuana is a against caution against finding false virtue in its use many Too college making more of pot than is really there. students smoke dope in rebellion against authority, either as the government, the University, or one's parents. Too many college students claim to be making a social statement by getting high; in this there is only pretense. Too many college students smoke every day for adventure, as a way of practicing hedonism. In this there is only vainglory and self-abuse. And too many college students smoke as a vain glory and self-abuse. And too many college students smoke as a concession to social pressure, as a foot in the door to acceptance among one's peers. Smoking pot every day, or keeping pot at hand for convenient use, in contrast to what so many studies have told us, is not necessarily a sign of abuse. But smoking in the name of glorified decadence is an attitude we would like to think the sophisticated college student of today has left behind. — - Chilean police — - The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 23 Rich Korman — Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt - — — — .

In the last two weeks the \\ Buffalo Courier Express has touched on many of the local events that involved Allman, and although these articles have mentioned many of the surface features of Allman's stay, curiosity has arisen as to what musical paths this performer will take in the future. In an exclusive interview with The Spectrum on a rainy Saturday last week at the home of psychologists' Mr. And Mrs. Marc Lipton, Gregg Allman answered these and other questions in his own humble manner For a major portion of the last decade Gregg Allman has spent his time providing lead vocals and organ for the Allman Brothers Band, during which time the band put out six albums and won the full respect of its audiences. Live at the Fillmore remains as one of the all-time great live records made by an American band as it revealed the frenzied sextet at its best. The Altman Brothers are often credited with the re-emergence and popularity of southern music. Several factors, though, have brought the end of the band .nearer than had been expected by fans and critics, One of the major problems was Gregg's marriage to T.V. personality Cher Bono. While this should have been a strictly personal' matter, members of the that the band complained marriage was keeping Allman from his responsibilities to them. Allman More recently disrupted the band with his testimony against former friend, valet and tour manager John "Scooter" Herring. Adman's testimony before a grand jury seemed to, as clarified by an August issue of Rolling Stone, irrevocably allienated him from the rest of the band. Began on guitar In his youth, the life of a musician probably had never seemed so complex to Gregg. As he sat on the plbsh white couch at the home of his therapists Mr. and Mrs. Upton* Gregg more than vividly recalled the year he bought his first guitar. “I worked as a delivery boy for some newspaper. I made exactly 120 dollars that summer." With that money Gregg decided to buy a guitar. "My mother gave me the other $9.85 that I needed and I went down to the Puvliss Music Company on Velushia Avenue in Daytona, Florida and bought the thing." Gregg revealed that he "would sit up at night under the sheets trying to learn how to play the damn thing, my mother would always In several nm < u.nm come and take it away from me." A while after Gregg bought the guitar he remembered someone else taking his guitar away from him. "My brother, Duane, used to have this motorcycle and he would drive it around. One day he crossed this bridge and his he motorcycle fell apart literally carried it home in a shopping bag. After a while Duane started to notice my guitar." As the story goes, Duane, being the bigger, older brother, started ... borrowing Gregg's guitar without asking permission. Since Gregg naturally complained, his mother resolved the crisis by buying Duane his own. "At that time I was the one playing lead on a Fender while Duane woujd be strumming chords on his Gibson." Gregg himself says that "the press can write anything they want, but it's up to the people to decide what is going on. Most people don't want to hear good news, they want to hear the bad stuff that is happening. Gregg, who had just woken up and was still shaking yawns out of his system, went on to analyze that "maybe they should say the seven o'clock Bad News. Why do you think people like to watch soap operas? Do you know that people actually mold their lives after thpse shows?" While Gregg has a disdain for the pretensiolisness of afternoon sopa operas, he did seem to take pleasure in Mary Hartman Mary Hartman, the newest and least conventional of the soap operas ' Gregg has been playing with several Buffalo-based groups. At the Mulligan's Cafe, bash on the fifth, he played the Freeze. "Freeze is a local band that is forced for economic reasons to play disco, but their roots are involved with the Allman Brothers sound." On Monday night Gregg could be found on the cramped at stage Jack Daniels' bar. Together with Blue Ox, a band Who just this week went to find fame and fortune in Phoenix, he performed a large portion of the Live at the Fillmore album, as well as a medley of B.B. King songs. ■ Lead Willie guitarist, Schoellkopf of the Blue Ox band, a person who bears much physical resemblance to Gregg's brother Duane, said "it blew our minds —I ekes Brother The first albums testify to, how quickly Duane learned to play. four Allman Unfair criticism decided to Before Gregg become a musician he also had becoming about a thoughts that dentist and with all the things have gone down in Gregg's life, he now laments "sometimes I wish I had." Part of the explanation comes from the fact that Gregg has received much criticism from the press. As pretty, blonde Cindy Lipton agrees, "Gregg has received many low and cheap shots lately that have really disturbed him. aired on television. Gregg warned, with a boyish gleam in his eye, that everyone should watch the show that particular evening. "The show is up to an interesting part, Mary and Tom smoke their first joint, it's too funny". Local appearances While part of his time spent in Buffalo might be in front of the tube, Gregg is frequently seen around town playing music. Last week, Gregg performed at the late show of the two Jackson Browne concerts. Together they did "These Days", a song Browne had given to Allman. weeks Gregg will leave Buffalo'and return for him to come up and play with us, I mean he's our roots. Allman also had high praises for them, saying that they were, "a good little band and very easy to work with." Future of band uncertain People have wondered when he will record again. Looking little perplexed, Allman confirmed that "it seems unlikely that the Allman Brothers will perform again". This does not necessarily present a problem to Allman, who has already released two albums of his own. In fact. Laid Back and Gregg Allman on Tour represented a to.L.A. where he plans to finish producing an album that he and Cher have been working on. For many people this combination might sound odd. How could Cher, with her commercial outlook be recording, be teamed up with Gregg Allman, famous desperado of the South? Says Allman, "This sounded a little strange to the president of Warner Brothers also, when me and my lawyer went to them with the idea, but a few weeks later we brought him our demo tape and that knocked him dead." Duet demo tape With a flash Gregg jounced up hooked up a small tape recorder so that he could give a sample of what the album whould sound like. "You'll notice that it has' that Laid Back sound to it. Every cut also has pedal steel on it; God I love that sound." From tfie cassette came a country flavored' Version of the old Smokey Robinson tune "You Realty Got A Hold On Me." "Its really different from the Roberta Flack version on Take Two." The next song that he played was another oldie, this time one written by Jim Webb of "Galveston” and "Witchita Linemen" fame,.What was most impressive about this cut was how well Cher and Gregg blended in a duet. The slow and sweet soul evident in the song certainly puts Elton John's and Kiki Dee's "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" to Shame. and enthusiastically "As well as having songs that relate to me and Cher, Gregg explained, "the album will feature Rickie Hersh, ex of Wet Willie", the "drummer will be Bill Stewart, who is also on half of the new New Riders album. On one cut I have two of the Eagles doing backup vocals. Jim Horn' from Canada will also be on the record." One thing that really bothered Gregg was that his pedal steel player, Scott Boyer, just went back to Georgia, In hopes of finding someone to replace Boyer, Allman asked, "Do you know any good pedal steel piayers around here; if they are really good, send them over to me." Break with Walden Although this album will be on the Warner Brothers label, Allman is still associated with Capricorn Records. "In fact, I just made a new deal with Capricorn where I will still record for them, but I won't be working with Phil Walden anymore." When Gregg and Cher finish their album and when time permits, the two will go on the road and do an all out U.S. tour.

The exhibit, entitled Dream Displacement and Other Projects, contains two film installations, various prints and drawings from 1966 to 1976, and several-frozen film frames. This particular show represents a new effort by to the its definition of Albright expand contemporary art, recognizing need to include avant-garde film for a museum public who might otherwise be deprived of this relatively new art form. However, bringing film to a gallery presents certain difficulties, which are inherent in the nature of film itself. But these difficulties are minimal at this exhibit, in which film is nof simply screened, but presented in “picture" form as well. Sharits' frozen frames are 16 mm. filmstrips mounted in plexi- glass, and hung from the ceiling so that light passes through. It is a startling concept. The area and space of film becomes presented as a whole, producing an effect quite' disimilar frorrTa screening of film through a projector. One is faced with a mass of colored ribbons, as with "Dream Displacement Reel A", which viewed as a whole, appears to be an intricate tapestry of maroon and gold, with a touch of green. One becomes aware then, of the flexibility in presenting fitm in its various aesthetic forms. not cinema For example, in "Replica 1", Sharits has taken some frames of film and has blown them up to the extent that they appear to be photo-silkscreens on a negative, with bright purple, green, orange, and black colors composing the fragmented, almost violent images of the 16 mm. film frame. This is another effort to broaden the traditional concept of film. By blowing up frames, or handing them up as a unified whole, the museum-goer becomes aware of the Film ’age eight . #.•• nature of avant-garde film, a genre which uses film for its own pruposes, rather than beiqg restricted by the medium they choose. Other pieces in the exhibit produce further insight into the nature of experimental filfn. Sharits includes studies and scores from his films, which simply appear to be an arrangement of colored dots on graph paper.

In any event, the exhibit is an innovative and compelling one for the Albright-Knox. It should be viewed especially by those who have remained unexposed to this art form. The presentation of Mr. Sharits' work enables one to view his film from various angles, creating an awareness of the utilization of film as an art form. One can isolate concepts behind each film, can view the film as a painting with brush stroke frames, and can begin to understand the work involved -in producing such films as has Mr. Sharits, which he describes as "intensified places" and "contemplative reflection".

Genuineness result of Jackson Browne's search for harmony by Barbara Komanski The powers of light and water both healing and destructive are the two most pervasive themes of Jackson Browne, a man once referred to in Rolling Stone magazine as "the first major singer-songwriter to have emerged with the knowledge that the battles Bob Dylan depicted a decade ago are either over or too ambiguous to be worth fighting anymore." The exemplary man-child in the promised land, little boy lost or grown man who ain't too tough to cry Jackson Browne is all of these. Vet he is none in particular. If I seem to be having trouble in composing or even locating trickles of thought in my stream of consciousness, it is because the talent that filled the Century Theatre last Wednesday night was so monstrous I have yet to decide whether I should start building my own fortress of the apocalypse, or continue exploring the possibilities of being a hopeless romantic; that is, one Who wotrid willingly risk being burned to attain that perfect love, even if it won't be forever. Jackson doesn't say we should do either. He does, however, predict the consequences of our folly if we don't begin regulating our impending decline. — — — Untitled "Say yeah" Jackson beseeched us in his opener on the of Thursday, October 6, a song from The Pretender. This forthcoming album, as Jackson showed in the four nevy numbers he performed, will be ripe with even deeper exploration of the topics related in his other three albums. Jackson confined his self-accompaniment to a bit of insignificant noodling at the electric piano for this first song. Not that it was bad musically, but superfluous in the fact that his first utterances demonstrated how he brilliantly uses his music as the frame for 'the panorama he paints in every poem. It was easy to see the power of this number captivating an audience, a feat not easily accomplished with an unfamilair composition. Picking up an acoustic guitar, Jackson sang "Farther On," the tale of a journey for love and fulfillment. This is one of the best tracks on Late for the Sky, virtually the only album, aside from the upcoming Pretender that Jackson drew from. The images protrayed here are a gentle reminder that the heroes of the past are smiling protectively, but retiringly just the same; And the angels are older They can see that' the sun's setting fast They look over my shoulder At the vision of paradise Contained in the light of the past Prodigal Sun obviously improved Waiting here for everyman Make it on your own if you think you can If you see somewhere to go, Waiting here for every man / understand « —Vazquez Don't ask me if he'll show you / don't know Maybe — For a performer who has been called the prophet of the seventies, this is a gentle indicator of how Jackson wants to be accepted by his public. It is his way of saying, "I'm looking, just like everyone else." Surprise guest The tither selection was "I Thought I Was a Child," a lovely composition about the heady confusion of new love. Jackson said that he had never performed this song in front of an audience, and he was beginning to like it more and more. The performance was delicate and powerful, a —continued on page 12— Orleans Opening act deserves stardom by Doug Alpem Spectrum Music Staff "Asylum recording Artists, Orleans," chirped the announcer as the band strolled onto the stage. From the polite initial applause to the sitting ovation following the show, it was quite apparent that the audience was there to see Jackson Browne. Several years ago, Orleans, just starting up the ladder to stardom, could draw a loyal crowd almost anywhere. With the release of their first album, they toured this state, playing mostly smaller clubs, whose audiences would dance in the aisles and roar at their finale, begging them to reappear for an encore. They hadn't attained mass popularity, but had a faithful and loyal following. Opening the show at the New Century Theater last Wednesday night, they began with the song which was their first hit, "Let There Be Music," but as the night progressed, most songs were selected from their new album. Waking and Dreaming. The group has recently added another drummer, Jerry Marotta. The necessity of dual percussion is somewhat bewildering to me, but they contained themselves, never letting their beat overpower the music. Orleans is a group which consists of some of the musicians around. The second song, "Reach," was their only raggae offering, and it was somewhat of a disappointment that more of the American-style "rasta" music that Orleans plays so well wasn't considered for this show. During "Reach," Larry Hoppen, a Dr. John lookalike in his feathered hat, switched to organ for a dazzling solo. "Spring Fever," another new song and an F.M, hit, had John Hall on lead guitar. His lackluster solo and the absence of the saxophone, which Michael Brecker played finest Browne augmented the point made in this number with the hymnal quality of his voice. The fact that “Farther On" is written slightly out of his range caused him to crack a few notes that night, but after delivering one line in a lower register, he burst forth with such an abundance of pure sound that the audience responded with totally spontaneous applause. Self-assured .Jackson's voice had I had seen him (almost four years ago), although he is a much more self-assured performer, Browne still retains the earnestness that made his early work seem so personal and alive. He avoids the usual pretty three- and four-part harmonies for a less adorned vocal blend, which suits his voice marvelously. Surprisingly, vocal harmony was only featured on three songs Wednesday night. This absence, however, was only really felt on "Fountain of Sorrow," which was originally recorded with additional voices. The, only selections Jackson chose from his more distant past were from For Everyman, an album many claim to be the Jackson Browne to own. And his two choices were superb. The title cut is a brilliant composition that reminds us that we can only show ourselves the way: time Spectrum Music Staff so well on the album, made this one of the poorer songs of thte show. John Hall's sweet a cappella vocal on "If I Don't Have You" was one of the highlights of the evening. His tremendous voice overpowered the somewhat rowdy audience, and later almost thrilled them with a perfect rendition of their biggest hit to date, "Dance With Me." The title song from their new album, Waking and Dreaming, had an excellent exchange of notes between Hall and Larry Hoppon on guitar and Wells Kelly on organ. The song finished with a beautiful bass solo by the other Hoppen brother, Lance, after which they broke right into their best song of the night, "The Bum." Wells Kelly spewed out a particularly greasy vocal followed by some brilliant guitar work by Kelly and Hoppen. "Still the One," their most .recent hit, featured a harmonious dual guitar exhibition by Hall and Hoppen, and the fifty-five minute set ended with the song, "What I Need," again showcasing an excellent Larry Hoppen guitar solo. No roaring applause, no call for an encore, no crowd of flaming matches. Everyone slapped their hands for ten seconds, then eagerly awaited Jackson. It seems unfair that now, just as this Woodstock-based group makes its bid for the stardom they so richly deserve, they are forced to play to audiences only prepared to see the following act. Orleans' set was very good but'much too short and 1 would like to express my dismay at Harvey and Corky's oversight in scheduling a second, later show to rake in more money, squeezing two top name bands into three hours including equipment change.

Angelou lectures on blacks and literature Maya Angelou, famous author of the best selling novels, Know Why A Caged Bird Sings and Gather Together in My Name appeared at the Conference Theater last Monday before a crowd of both black and / white students. Angelou's writings reflect her own experiences as a black woman living in America. Her lecture here focused on literature and the survival of the black people. She began the lecture by referring to the humiliation and manipulation of slavery. "It has been said that in order to have a person enslaved, you must first convince yourself that the person is subhuman and then convince your allies of the same," she said. "However, the third and most unkind cut of all is ■ to convince that person that he, or she is subhuman." When the enslaver is sucessful in this, Angelou indicated, he can step away from the act and ask 50 or 150 years later, "What do you people want?" Loving yourself, she asserted, is the only way to combat that type of control. Angelou stated that black people must not disregard their literature as a source of their heritage and culture. People try to imitate the life styles of their own heroes and "sheroes," she said. Yet, heroes are not always obliged to be flesh, or even tangible black literature, itself, must be a "he'ro” from which to [earn and honor. While not dismissing human heroes (she cited Cecily Tyson and Stevie Wonder as her own personal favorites), she stressed the importance of literature as a carrier of cutlure. — of the levels of existence below or before "character." The plot tells the story of a young brother and sister in an Indian tribe whose father has been killed. The young man (he is not given a name) returns to their village in Quebec in order to convince his sister Adanac that he is innocent of their father's murder, which she believes he has committed. The entire tribe has been poisoned by eating fish contaminated by the mercury dumped into the water by a nearby factory. The effects of the poison are violent insanity and eventual death. After watching his father kill himself with a hatchet, the brother fled to escape the terrible effects of the poison. Adanac's conviction that her brother did the killing is fed by the influence of the mercury on her own brain. When the play begins, she has waited long for him to return so that she can feed him some of the contaminated fish and unite him in madness and destruction with her, their father, and the whole tribe. Man and nature The central theme of The Bond of Poison Is summed up in its title, which has both specific reference to the plot and a more general significance. It specifically refers to the poisoned bond between man and nature, between the Indians and the fish which have always supplied both their food and their livelihood', and which are now a source of death. As the play,develops, however, it becomes apparent that this bond is a metaphor for all human and natural relationships. The poison does not create violence so much as it reveals the violence which was already there. all-consuming. In this situation, the alternatives are either (1) removal of oneself from society, preserving sanity but cutting oneself off from relationship, or (2) participation in the poisonous and self-destructive bonds. The brother takes the former course. He has seen the effects of the poison from the outside, both on his father and on two children in a clinic, who were "playing" together by.alternately smashing a ball into one another's face. The brother is a detached observer, but he cannot deny completely the claim of his tribal and familial bonds, and so has returned to the village to pull his. sister out of the dying community along with him. Chameleon Adanac, however, refuses to go. She has become united with the poison, has become one, in her own mind, with the fish which transmit the poison. Her first line, repeated several times in the play, is "In the very earliest time, when both people and fish lived on the earth, a person could become a fish if he wanted to, and fish could become a human being." This presumably refers to a putative Indian legend about the relationship of the tribe with its source of nourishment, but under the influence of the mercury poison, Adanac transforms it into a more immediate and destructive metamorphosis. At the end of the play, she imagines that she and her brother are poisoned fish, waiting expectantly to be caught and so to poison the rest of mankind, to draw the whole world into the bond. She does not want to avoid destruction, as her brother does, because to do so would be to avoid the bonds of family, sexuality, — community. Adanac's vision of things requires that the whole world be included (and hence annihilated) because it is a vision without boundaries. If the entire universe does not participate in the bond of poison, then her insane world-view will not, so to speak, make sense. —continued on page 12— TONIGHT Buffalo State Student Union Board presents an evening with Magical, musical "When black.culture is performed by white American, Latin, or Asian people, the audience br reader "hasn't tripped," "Black literature is about human conditions, so real that it is great-literature," she er added. Touching the crowd with dynamic recitals of poetry during the course of the evening, Angelou said that "poetry needs to be magical, musical, and lyrical. When black people state the phrase 'Stay Black and Beautiful,' among themselves it is an encouragement that should easily be in use among people of every race, color, creed or persuasion, because the statement encourages the listener to survive, and thrive, with some passion, some compassion, some humor and some style." Angelou is also known for two poetry collections, Just Give Me a CooI Drink of Water and Oh Pray My Wings are Gonna Fit Me Well. She produced, directed and starred in a theatrical production Cabaret for Freedom, which co-starred Godfrey Cambridge at New York's Village Gate. Angelou received a standing ovation that night.

A newspaper recent article mentioned that Gregg was attending a course at the University of Buffalo. In fact. Gregg is being tutored at the Lipton's home by Steve Wallace, who is also a student advisor. Gregg said he doesn't know why he didn't do this when he was just staring oOt and discussed the practical purposes of this type of education; "I can go into a studio and some guy can hand me a chart and I would be able to look at it and on the spot be able to sit down and play it." In the course he learns to score by practicing his own music. "Wallace will sit down apd teach me how to score Midnight Rider." While Allman is interested in seeing more of the University campus, so far he has only driven around. "I really don't think it would be easy for me to walk around the place" said Altman. It is still possible that in the future, though, one might see the newly stocky Allman walking through the Union or even sitting in a class room. Mrs. Lipton, who is currently taking psycholgoy courses at the University, has been urging him to come around with Page twelve The Spectrum . Friday, 15 October 1976 . her for some time For now though, Allman is involved with his music. The Cher and Gregg album is tentatively scheduled to come out in January. Sometime after that Gregg will start working on another solo album, sp far now he is busy learning to score the twenty-odd string musicians and horn players that he will use in his forthcoming work. Mrs. Upton had this to say in conclusion about Gregg Allman "Gregg is an extremely talented, sensitive and underrated fellow. People will be hearing a lot of good stuff from him in the future." In my own words, I — agree. producer Chris Bond. "On our first albums we were going through a teething period with Chris, but now we have a telepathic communication with him. Everyone is so obsessed with "well made" records these days, he said, "there's a constant temptation in the studio to be overly meticulous. We're too close to our writing and we really need Chris as a moderator. We throw out ideas but we leave the knobtwirling to the engineers and the important decisions to Chris." With so many artists being continuously over- or underproduced, it's refreshing to know that talent of the caliber of Hall and Oates is being properly and efficiently handled in the studio. Comparing Bigger Than Both Of Us with Hall and Oates' Other albums is difficult because they're all so different. Their first disc, Whole Cats was primarily accoustic and folk oriented, while the follow-up, Abandoned Luncheonette, was th.eir most R & B influenced, with the concentration on melodies and harmonies. "She's Qpne" came from this album. War Babies, probably their best album, is the rockiest. Produced and arranged by Todd Rundgren, if any of their albums should have "broke” for them, it should have been this one. Although it won t, War Babies should go down as one of the true classics of the seventies. After War Babies came the "silver" album, which was more of a return to their R B style with accentuation on vocals and Bigger Than Both Of Us is a fusion of everything they've melodies. done before. A little R & B, some rock, some jazz: it's Hall and Oates finally hitting their stride and putting it all together. They seem to have found their own little niche in music, and Bigger Than Both Of Us should satisfy everyone. -Steven Brieff & Prodigal Sun �* RECORDS The Stills-Yogng Band, Long May You Run (Reprise) Eric Clapton, No Reason to Cry Night), his songwriting and guitar talents have playing remained relatively intact. Perhaps (Pol^d^r) the stoned-out vocals are used as intentional emphasis, or maybe he is the Most Wasted, and is only occasionally creative by accident or coincidence. In any event, last winter’s Zuma Ip, which saw Young reunited with Crazy Horse (his original backup band), was acclaimed by the press as a huge off-key achievement, artistic singing and all. So, when Neil Young joined forces with Stephen Stills for last summer's recording sessions and abortive (cancelled after two weeks) tour, it was seen by the rock press as a great errand of good old Neil was mercy touring and recording with poor old Steve, trying to get him back on his creative feet again, even though to the "untrained ear," it sounded as if both could use a little help. Buffalo Springfield they ain't. Strangely enough, Long May You Run supports the "Young as artist, Stills as burnout" theory The recent release of alburns both the short-lived by Band and the Stills-Young Clapton Eric long-winded rhenagerie has given us something interesting (though depressing) to think about. Entitled Long May You Run and No Reason to Cry respectively, the records reflect similar origins (the reaffirmation of a faltering musician's existence) and both are, for the most part, disappointments. Although each one succeeds in its own limited neither comes close to comparison with what the artists in question were producing, say, five years ago How does the old story go? Eric Clapton allegedly joined Stephen Stills in the studio to record the song "Black Queen," and the two decided to "hoist a few" first. A quart of Tequila later, the heat apparently proved too much for Clapton, who passed out cold, leaving Stills to record way, the — imagination in Stephen's voice lyrics. The remaining two songs fare slightly better lyrically, if not musically, and both hint at a new-found religious belief, although in a contradictory way.

More sociaf commentary is heard on the album's title cut and the brilliant "Fountainbleau," both aspects of America.

It is a refreshing sight to see potters’ wheels and weaving looms among the thousands of books and other implements of education floating around Norton Hall. The Creative Craft Center,, located in Norton basement, allows students the opportunity to use their hands as well as their minds. The Craft Center, part of the Student Activity Program, offers the University community the chance to discover new abilities and skills in the various craft fields. The structural education system to which we have all been exposed has virtually dealt a death blow to original creativity. A mild counter-flow to this situation has developed in the past few years as has a revival in basic hand-mind coordination. A major problem, as seen by Craft Center Program Director Joe Fischer, is “to overcome our anxiety about creation that structured academia has instilled in most of us.” Creating is as useful as it is o functional.'' New center The facility at the Amherst Campus represents a collection of the newest and most elaborate equipment obtainable for all creative craft needs. The new center houses enormous kilns (30 cu. ft.), numerous potters wheels, 16 looms, a leather studio, photo studio, a black and white darkroom and a well supplied color darkroom. However, these facilities are not limited to residents only. The Craft Center now offers credit courses in a number of the colleges and is investigating the possibility of a full four-year program with a degree in the craft field. A genuine attempt is being made not to minimize the value of creative crafts or the possible role it may play in the development of people’s lives. Program funding has been a problem at the Craft Center, as it has been in most other areas of the University. Until 1973, all related activities of the Craft Center were free to students, with a working budget of about $15,000 per year from the Student Activity Fund. Since that time, the allocated budget has been dropped to $3,000 annually, and the need for subsequent funds has become essential. These funds have taken the form of membership fees which are virtually the only means of keeping the Center alive. These fees are prorated and reduced proportionally, depending on the time remaining in the semester. Fischer fears that “people believe that everyone knows everyone at the Center” and they feel they are intruding in a private club. The long corridor that leads to the Center in Norton Hall is not intended to intimidate anyone, it simply happens to be there.” Applications are now available in 205 Norton for the following .orah .^be celebrated in grand styye at the Chabad Houses on both the Main and Amherst campuses beginning at 8 p.m. Saturday night.

To meet this increased demand, the Craft Center has initiated a number of new programs this year. Heading the list are a series of comprehensive workshops designed for beginners. Areas of major interest include ceramics, jewelry making, wearing, lapidary and photography. Most of the workshops require no experience and are designed to give a basic understanding of the field. The instruction is light and the atmosphere stresses enjoyment. Fischer points out that the workshops “aim for quality, but are also there to meet the students’ needs.” The Workshops are open to all members of the University community (students, faculty, staff, alumni and the general community), and are scheduled to meet at both the Main Street and Amherst Campuses.

Luis Azcue pounced on the ball and knocked it in for the Bulls only goal. The final score of Wednesday’s soccer game was Hartwick 6, Buffalo 1, but by listening to the two coaches, one would think that the score was reversed. Hartwick’s coach, Jim Lennox, thought the Warriors played poorly, while Bulls coach Sal Esposito was very pleased. The reason for this is that Hartwick . is the second ranked soccer team in the nation, just behind Clemson. Therefore, no one, seriously expected the Bulls to be winners, much less make it close. It was surprising that by halftime, Hartwick led by only one goal, although they had many more opportunities to score. Tom Maresca scored the Warriors initial goal barely five minutes into the contest. Esteban Reynoso tallied again for Hartwick, but about eighty seconds later, the Bulls tallied. That was the only mistake that VanEron made all day. He is a .senior from Huntington, New York, and according to Lennox, he is a top pro prospect. VanEron wasn’t tested much, as the Bulls took only 13 shots, and by the time Hartwick had scored their fifth goal, his replacement-, Mark Snell of Lockport, was sent in. The second half opened, and aided by the wind, the ball was almost continually near the Buffalo net. The goals came in a flurry, as Hartwick’s superiority asserted itself. Maresca and teammate Glen Myernick, another pro prospect, each displayed their dribbling abilities. Myernick sliced through Buffalo defenders as if they weren’t there for Hartwick’s third goal. Maresca, aided by some pinpoint passing of his teammates, dribbled right through the entire right side of Buffalo’s defense at Lone goal A shot from the side was held one point, only to have his effort up by the stiff wind, and when it ruined when he slipped on a soft came down, Buffalo tri-captain patch of ground.

Our game plan went extremely well in the first half,” he said. “The wind made a difference in the second half. Every time we tried a goal kick, the wind hung it up there and they’d get it right back.” With a big smile he added, “I’m especially proud that they didn’t shut us out.” also Each coach had compliments for the other team. Lennox noted that Buffalo came out well prepared, and fired up, and that Buffalo’s offsides play (designed to pull a Hart wick player offside) was extremely effective. Esposito was very impressed by the Warriors. ‘They’re much better than Cleveland State,” he said. Cleveland State beat Buffalo earlier this year 13-0. ‘They’re an excellent ballclub. I hope they can catch Clemson so that the number one title will belong to New York State.” The Bulls have another rough opponent tomorrow at 1 p.m. in Brockport.

The win raises their record to 2-4. In first place on the 5.8 mile course was Buffalo’s Bob “Doc” Howard, who needed a big kick in the last 200 yards to take the lead. He had trailed for most of the race, but not by much. His ©The Qap 1976 winning time was 31:02. Buffalo’s John Ryerson finished third .overall, but both he and teammate Mike Fischer, who back finished fourth, beat St. determined efforts by As Bonaventure’s runner. it turned out, the oppositibn couldn’t keep up with them at the finish. Buffalo’s fourth finisher and eighth overall was Mark Rybinski. According to Gantz, his effort swayed the match in Buffalo’s favor. He was behind by 150 yards (a considerable distance) with about two miles to go. During the race, he learned that he had to overtake the two Bonnies’ runners in front of him, and with a furious kick, he passed them with about 200 yards to go. Had he not done this, Buffalo would have lost the match. Bulls coach Walter Gantz called Golf at the BIG FOUR Championships, River Oaks Golf Club. October 11.

Last Saturday, the Bulls had to battle both the elements and quite a few runners with scholarships, as they lost a triangular meet to Cleveland State and Fredonia. No Buffalo runner finished in the top ten. Nevertheless, Gantz felt that the Bulls turned in a very creditable performance under the circumstances. They were usually ankle deep in mud throughout the race. That day, Gantz predicted that as soon as they faced a team (St. without scholarships Bonaventure), they would be winners. Tomorrow, Buffalo’s second and final home meet of the year will be held at Amherst, next to the tennis courts. The race, R.I.T.' and LeMoyne, against begins at noon.

Despite the six states where some degree of reform has been achieved South Dakota, Minnesota, Colorado, California, Ohio, Maine, Alaska and Oregon sentences of two to three years are still given.regularly for simple possession in Florida, and thirteen people are serving life sentences for pot in Texas. And according to — — found marijuana guilty by apparently association (with its “undesirable” users) and penalties grew harsher through the 1950s. It is only in the last 10 years that pot-smoking has become a pasttime of the middle class. With the growing number of marijuana users, the amount of arrests has also increased. In 1965, there were 18,000 arrests. By 1975 that figure more than doubled to 416,000. Fioramonti cut that staggering statistic to a rriore comprehensible size. “Every day in the U.S. there are over 1100 marijuana-related arrests,” he said. “In New York State alone there are at least 75 daily.” New York law Under New York State Law possession of more than one ounce, or sale of any kind, is a —FMss Frank Fioramonti Class C Felony punishable by up to 15 years. Other Class C Felonies include armed robbery and manslaughter. He also noted that sale can simply mean passing a joint among friends. Last year New York State spent $60 million on marijuana law enforcement. Thirty-three million Americans have tried the drug and 13 million smoke regularly. Their consumption, per year is estimated at 17 million pounds, or 400 joints per person. Despite these statistics, federal laws remain unchanged since 1937 and, only eight states have decriminalized simple possession. Of the people between the ages of 18 and 25. 35 percent have tried marijuana. But of those over 50 years of age, only 3 percent have experimented, “and unfortunately, it is the people over 50 who run this country.” But in some cases the wheels of justice have turned faster. “In New Jersey after Governor Cahill’s son was busted twice, the New Jersey State Supreme Court ruled that first time offenders couldn’t be sent to jail.” Governor Cahill later commented, “The problem with marijuana is you can go to jail for it.” Frank Fioramonti, New York State Director of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Law (NORML), New York State’s laws are among the worst. During his appearance in th6 Fillmore Room last Wednesday night, Fioramonti mixed levity with sobering fact to make the case for reform. He spoke between the showing of two movies. Marijuana: Assassin of Youth and Reefer Madness. Both were Hypocrisy “President Ford saying he opposes filmed in the 1930’s by the Federal Bureau decriminalization while his son smokes in the of Narcotics to emphasize the grave dangers White House with total immunity is the kind of marijuana use in days when one could “buy a sandwich and a marijuana cigarette of hypocrisy this country is sick of,” said for 25 cents.” More seriously, he said the Fioramonti. The audience responded with films erroneously labeled marijuana a applause. Fioramonti said NORML does not narcotic and that attitudes formed in the ’30s advocate the use of leisure drugs, but feels were the basis for our present laws. jailing people for it is even worse. Anti-pot After claiming that “penalties have been Anti-marijuana bias can be traced to the ineffective” in curbing the use of the drug, trun of the century, Fioramonti believes. “It Fioramonti gave the results of a poll taken in was a racial and class thing.” Mexicans first Oregon one year after the state had brought marijuana into the United States in decriminalized its use. “Thirty-five percent the early 1900s. White American prejudice said they smoked less after decriminalization, against Mexicans led people to associate 54 percent smoked about the same, 5 percent marijuana with the “lower element.” This said they were smoking more and two stereotype grew with time, and New Orleans percent couldn’t remember what they jazz musicians became the next group to use smoked before or after the laws changed.” In grass widely. Along with the musicians, the an accompanying poll it was found that pimps and prostitutes of New Orleans also judges favored the new law saying it relieved adopted the drug. American legislators the courts’ backlog of cases. Fioramonti attributes the slowness of change to “apathy among the smoking public. NORML isn’t down on cops we’re down on the legislatures that won’t change the laws.” He added that “sitting back and getting high won’t help writing just one letter to your state legislator would.” Fioramonti indicated clear differences between this year’s political candidates on the marijuana issue. In the Senate race, incumbant James Buckley favors the jailing of New York’s one million regular smokers, while Democractic Daniel challenger Moynihan wishes to eliminate the present black market through legalization to protect buyers. In the presidential race, former Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter favors decriminalization while President Ford does not. A recent Harris poll shows that nationwide 43 favor percent decriminalization while 45 percent are . . . — opposed. NORML/s Frank Fioramonti made it clear that marijuana is not a harmless drug. “The drug should not be used by pregnant women.” However, a prominent member of the National Institute of Drug Abuse has said, “Marijuana causes less problems than alcohol.” The smoking of any substance will affect the respiratory system and marijuana is no exception. In one study subjects smoked five joints a day for 10 weeks. A small but noticeable change in lung capacity resulted. The best study of long term effects was done in Jamaica. Thirty smokers who had all smoked eight joints a day for at least 10 years were found to have virtually no physiological differences from a control group of non-smokers. Hospital staffers, unaware of which group was which, found the smokers more pleasant than the non-smokers. Masters and Johnson have found that marijuana causes a drop in testosterone levels in males, but keeps it within the normal range. Therapeutically marijuana can be used for more than just the treatment of glaucoma. In the treatment of cancer patients THC, the active agent in pot, “eliminated the nausea and vomiting caused by cheomtherapy in 70 percent of those tested.” For asthmatics, marijuana dilates the bronchial tubes, making it easier for them to breathe. Fioramonti explained that THC eyedrops and sprays were being developed for those who don’t wish to “get high” from smoking. When asked, “Where’s all the good pot?” Fioramonti speculared that effective law enforcement was partly to blame along with the’greed of the big dealers who wished — to see prices go up �Pulaski Day Parade Mondale and first lady the city of unemployment trade deficits and the highest interest rates “since the Civil War.” Crangle then introduced Niinnesota’s Mondale as the Buffalo’s annual Pulaski 'Day Parade “Senator of Wisconsin.” He corrected his opened up political doors for both mistake, adding, “That’s not as bad as Democrats and Republicans, national and some that Ford makes.” local.

The parade proceeded from Broadway and Bailey to Broadway and Fillmore, where there was a reviewing stand from which Mrs. Ford, the guest of honor, observed the parade. While Mondale was on the offensive, with regard to Ford’s remarks, Mrs. Ford came prepared to defend her husband. “I think he was misconstrued,” she told reporters. ‘To me, really what he was trying to express was the free spirit of those countries over there. You can’t help but feel it when you are traveling in them.” , “I don’t feel that President Carter knows what that’s all about,” added Mrs. Ford, referring to her husband’s record of support for Eastern European nations. She did not, however, realize or correct her reference to Carter as “president.” Senator Mondale joined Mrs. Ford, and other Republican and local leaders on the reviewing stand. Mrs. Ford seemed surprised at Mondale’s appearance, but regained her composure and pinned a “Keep Betty in the White House” button on his lapel. Mondale spoke briefly to the crowd, praising General Pulaski, and echoing sentiments expressed earlier.

Esposito is also chairman of the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction (RARI). Both Esposito tnd Wright received favorable reports from a peer evaluation committee, first step in the tenure granting process. However, the President’s Board on Faculty Appointments, Promotions Tenure, and recommended that the two not be granted tenure. President Robert Ketter accepted the committee’s recommendation. Ketter’s approval is the final step in the procedure, although appeals are possible Lawrence Dr. Cappiello, Secretary of the President’s Board, when asked to explain the action of the committee, said that Board members could not discuss the reasons for a specific decision. New coaches? The decision not to grant tenure means in effect that this University probably will have to look for new hockey and soccer coaches.

Both Esposito and Wright reportedly had been given a choice between applying for tenure or finding some other means of retention, including possible title changes.

Book destruction discussed by FSA Last summer The Spectrum reported that the University Bookstore in Norton Union destroys overstocked paperback books in compliance with what the management said were publishers’ directives regarding resale policy. Interviewed this week, Bookstore manager Tom Moore produced letters defining the publishers’ policy. All the letters were dated after the date of the original story of June 18th. The Bookstore is prohibited by law from selling materialwhich it has already received credit for. These letters also contained specific orders to the retailers to destroy the books after* the credit had been granted. All the books were “inexpensive, low quality paperbacks,” said Moore. He said the value of the books destroyed last semester was calculated at 177 dollars. Moore added, “The average student would pay that much for books in one year.” Student Association President Steve Schwartz requested that the Bookstore policy be brought up at the next Faculty-Student Association (FSA) board of directors meeting. FSA is the parent organization to the Bookstore, Food and Vending services, linen service, and other agencies. Its board of directors is comprised of students, faculty, and administrators. The issue was set aside until two weeks ago when board members asked Moore why the books were not donated to charitable organizations. Moore said, “They’re not our books, we only get credit for the books, and its not our perogative to do what we want with them afterwards.” Credit Credit is obtained from publishers by returning covers torn off by Bookstore employees. This procedure is used by every major publisher except the New American Library, which has their customers return entire books. Letters from Avon Books (August 11) and Fawcett Publishers (August 12) gave explicit orders to destroy the books after credit had been given. On July 7, the letter sent by Berkley publishers (another prominent publishing company) said they preferred the books be destroyed. Moore explained his feelings on the directives. “1 can understand publisher’s policy, considering the massive cost of handling such cheap books, it wouldn’t pay for them!” “It’s the best way for the publishers to insure that the retailers don’t turn around and sell the books after they have already gotten the the credit for them Harold Fleishet Wednesday, 13 October 1976 .

Maxwell was received with great interest here last Thursday night when he spoke on “Tibet: From Serfdom to Socialism.’’ About 70 came to hear and ask questions of Maxwell, one of the few Western journalists to travel extensively in Tibet.

A questionnaire was sent to the 140 students who graduated from tfie program between January 1973 and January 1975. Of the sixty-nine respondents, fifty-two students or 75.4 percent were currently employed. Twenty-eight students, or 40.6 percent of the respondents were in graduate schools pursuing degrees in the areas of medicine, law, dentistry, community planning, social work and psychology. Nine graduates felt that their major had ho effect on their goals, while one student indicated that it had actually hindered his education and/or vocational goals. Successful program Former Special Major program chairman William Fritton discussed the success of the program. Buffalo was one of the first schools to institute a program in Special Majors, with the number of students in the program close to the number of students working towards a degree in many other departments. “Obviously, the University is quite sympathetic towards Special Majors,” former Special Major Program Chairman William Fritton added. Academic Advisor John Riszko, currently serving on the Special Major Committee, felt the program links the student body and the administration. He added that most students interested in the program are accepted but often they must reapply several times. To have a special major approved, the student must present his plans to an academic advisor. The potential offered by the area of concentration is evaluated and the University’s.resources in the area are explored! The proposal must then be validated.by two faculty advisors. Riszko described the committee’s role as that of a screening committee where the members weigh the relative strengths and weaknesses of each proposal. Importance of the committee Riszko sees the responsibilities of the committee in an even broader sense. ‘'The Special Major Committee is influential in starting new majors it can recommend to the University and to authorities in Albany the need for offering vocationally promising areas of study. However, Fritton did not agree, saying he felt that six people eould not be well informed enough to be able to tell the University what or what not to do.” Presently, most of the Special Major students are working in the Social Sciences. Many students are combining these interests with an interest in technological sciences to devise majors like music and art therapy. There are a number of students working towards special majors in news media and communications, because this University does not offer a formalized major in journalism. Students answering the survey were asked to comment on the program. One student wrote, “The only thing lacking for me, as an undergraduate with a Special Major was a department. There was no union or structure to bind me to the University.” Another respondent felt he never would have finished school without the Special Major program. Page four .

Krason Special to The Spectrurri ■In my analysis of the first debate,, I gave the Carter-Ford edge to Carter, though believing neither candidate that overwhelmed the other. In debate number two, however, Jimmy Carter emerged as the clear and decisive winner. I made my judgement on the first debate solely on the basis of who handled the issues better. The second first, unlike the debate, emphasized form, not substance. •From the beginning, Carter knew that he had to assume an aggressive posture placing Ford on the defensive. He succeeded in doing just that. Carter was determined not t6 be deferential to Ford, as he was previous encounter, in their making for a debate more substantive and bitter than the first. Carter spoke in abstractions, to stress certain choosing rehearsed themes and in so doing the of several ignored gist questions posed to him. Although he evidently took command of the debate, it is uncertain whether he demonstrated his capacity to direct American fbreign policy. Carter appeared relaxed and confident throughout, while Foril was a bit worn and craggy. The incumbent seemed so rattled by Carter’s opening assault that his voice shook as he responded to it. Ford was so preoccupied with defending himself that he was unable to take the offensive when the opportunity arose. committee inquiries as proof of this. It is probably true that American foreign policy has been conducted more openly by the Ford administration than in those two immediate of his predecessors. Though Mr. Ford claimed credit for this in the debate, it may be less his doing than the fact that in the wake of Vietnam, Congress has been more willing to assert itself in foreign policy and the press has been in scrutinizing more vigilant American actions abroad. Ford insisted that American prestige is at a high point, citing the weakening of Soviet influence Mideast, successful the in overtures to our allies, and the new-found trust of the United States in Africa. He maintained that America’s foreign policy is a presenting moral one, as centerpieces his efforts to achieve bloodless self-determination in Africa and his success in keeping peace. America at His commitment to human rights, however, did not seem very convincing when he implied that in places like South Korea, human rights may have to take a backseat to deterrence when “the threat” of Communist aggression is present. Ford committed serious a political and judgmental blunder when discussion turned to the controversial Helsinki accord. First he stated that the Accord must have been a good one because even a representative of “His Holiness, the Pope” had signed it. This was certainly a clumsy remark and may have left Abdication of leadership some with the impression that Mr. The forfnulation of U.S. Ford takes his foreign policy cues foreign policy, the morality of our from the Vatican. actions abroad, the loss of Ford then made one of the American prestige, and an most incredible statements abdication of leadership by Mr. uttered by any recent American Ford were themes which were president when he said that the repeatedly driven home by Carter. countries of Eastern Europe are He claimed that the Ford not under the domination of the administration had made it a USSR.

In a press release last month, Hoyt revealed “shocking facts £>n the “oversaturation” of,halfway houses, hostels, prisoner early release facilities, non-alcoholism treatment residences, and more, in certain areas of the city. These facts were uncovered in an indepth study conducted this summer by Elouglas Hopkins, a social sciences major at Yale University, a summer intern in Assemblyman Hoyt’s office. In this demographic and geographic breakdown of Erie County, it was found that the Delaware-Elmwood area is shouldering 21 percent of the county s halfway house patient-care burden, although it contains only about three of the coiylty’s population. Criv’-wide, the percent Delaware-Elmwood area contaiffsseven percent of the population and . 37 percent of the patient population. Hoyt feels that these facts show a “glaring insensitivity to neighborhood concerns.” Continuing. Hoyt declared, I hey [these social agencies] must be brought to realize that the key to success of community halfway houses is a high degree of responsiveness to community concerns. And until this point is driven home, and until the level of cooperation and communication between the agencies involved is improved, I am proposing an immediate moratorium on any further expansion of community residences.” In an interview Friday, the legislator supported the philosophy of slowly readjusting “mentally or emotionally” disabled patients from institutions back into the community, but stated that the city is sustaining the burden financially, while the suburban districts of Erie County are less saturated with halfway house-type facilities. In Hoyt’s September 4th press release, he states. “Neighborhoods are becoming increasingly suspicious of community centers primarily because of oversaturation by former institutionalized mental patients. Even older halfway houses that have lived in harmony with their neighbors are experiencing community backlash . “If this type of policy is to be pursued, then the social service agencies must improve the degree of coordination and communication between themselves, and make a conscious effort to spread them out. The study clearly indicates that they are not doing so,.” • .. Communication essential Late in April, 1975, Transitional Services, Inc., a contract agency of the Erie County Department of Mental Health, decided to open a new facility for 12 mentally disabled persons in a building two blocks from the two existing Transitional Services apartments. This April, recognizing the potential for community opposition, the director of Transitional Services contacted the City Councilman and County Legislator representing this area to inform ■ them of their plans. Delaware District Councilman Harlan J. Swift, Jr. and Erie County Legislator Roger Blackwell reviewed the proposal and approved it. The community residence was opened and began operating in-late July. Some six months later, on February 6 r 1976, Parkside area residents learned that the New York State Division for Youth had opened a group home for six youngsters at 2238 Main Street, only four doors from the newest Transitional Services facility. Community reaction was swift and negative. This is an example of one social service agency “house hunting” without any knowledge of what other agencies have already done and without any preliminary contact with the neighborhood. The approach taken by the State Division for Youth in this case illustrates an insensitivity for neighborhood interest, the study continued. For the past year, increasing militancy by many persons living in the Delaware-Elmwood area toward community residences, and to their clients has been noted. City, county and state legislators representing the Delaware-Elmwood area have received a steady stream of letters and telephone calls for constituents complaining about “halfway houses.” The Hopkins’ study sums up by saying, “Understanding that a hostile community damages the chances for a client’s successful rehabilitation, the County Mental Health Department issued a ‘freeze’ order. Although the New York State Department of Mental Hygiene agreed to observe the moratorium as well, other agencies did not.” Hoyt "further recommends that, “The only way community opposition can possibly be appeased will be through an immediate and energetic campaign of sensitive community education. The agencies which sponsor community residences have generally done a poor job of public relations. This failing must be reversed. Responsiveness to community concerns is the key to the success of community residences.” GROWS! Kensington] Balky at Kanaington/833-8216 Page eight . STARTS FRIDAY! October 15th Exclusive One Week Only - The Spectrum . Wednesday, !3 October 1976 We’re not sure, but . . . The rabbit may have died go in the great by Pam Jenson Spectrum Staff Writer No one knows for sure, but many suspect that Jonsie, the female gorilla at the Buffalo Zoo, is pregnant. A Zoo veterinarian contacted Yerkeys Primate Center in Georgia, a place noted for breeding and raising gorillas, to find out what type of tests could be administered to Jonsie to determine whether she is pregnant. Yerkeys suggested a urine analysis, but Jonsie hasn't been very cooperative. Though amusing, the antics of the ape housekeepers and veterinary staff were largely unsuccessful. When one good sample was finally obtained, tests proved Zoo veterinary technician Karen Grikstas explained that gorillas neither look nor act differently when expecting because they have much firmer muscles than humans. Thus, although gorillas put on some weight during pregnancy, they pack it in so well that the added pounds are rarely noticeable. inconclusive. If Jonsie actually gives birth, it will be the first gorilla ever, born at theBuffalo'Zoo, and it is quite a rarity for gorillas to be born,anywhere in captivity. This is primarily due to the fact that in higher primates breeding is learned behavior rather than an instinct. The ani,mals learn how to reproduce by observing their family members and other gorillas.in the act of intercourse. Living in ?oo cages, the animals don’t have' the opportunity to witness the normal mating activities of others as they would in the wild. Gentle care The 190-pound Jonsie who has always kept herself extremely trim and in' excellent physical condition, Karen remarked that she has recently acquired a slight “spare tire.” Lately, she has also shown quite a bit of mammary development. These could both be signs that a little gorilla is on the way. Samson and Jonsie used to share a double cage during the 'daytime hours, but the zoo has recently separated them. “We anticipate a baby and if she is pregnant, she doesn’t need to be knocked around,” said Karen. Samson has always been the “boss” of their cage, often-treating Jonsie quite roughly. “If Jonsie does deliver, there is more than an 80 percent chance that she won’t be capable of taking care of the baby,” stated Karen,'She probably will want to, but won’t know how. Like breeding, maternal care is a learned behavior of gorillas. “In the wild, almost every mother loses her first baby,” explained Karen. Blessed event The 14-year old Jonsie, and her mate Samson, age 16, were periodically observed mating between the end of December and the end of January. She had been in heat many times before, but Samson had never demonstrated very much interest in her. Although the animal keepers believe that she was probably impregnated sometime in January, Samson appeared to be' quite determined and it is possible that they might have bred in private at some later date if they hadn’t succeeded at first. Like humans, the gestation period of gorillasi is nine months, thus the blessed event, if it does take place, cannot be too far off. If Jonsie is eight or nine months pregnant, why can’t the animal keepers tell just by looking at her? Nursing Gorillas remain almost helpless for a number of months after birth. Since it is highly unlikely that Jonsie will be able to nurse and care for her own young, the zoo would like to get it into a human maternity hospital for about the first month, and then to transfer it to the zoo’s animal hospital where it will remain in an incubator for a few months. Although the baby will miss some of the antibodies and proteins which could be obtained from the mother’s colostrum, hand raising of animals in zoos has generally been at least as successful as raising a gorilla in the wild. The people at the zoo claim that they are now 95 percent sure that Jonsie is indeed pregnant, but Jonsie is the only one who .knows for sure. �Irresponsible ’ To the Editor. Out of many To the Editor The “quiet firing” of Goodenow and Grabiner has indeed raised something of a storm here at UB. Hopefully, the public discussion of this case will help resolve the injustice done to Goodenow and Grabiner, as well as the people in their program. Thank you for your support. One disturbing thing about this storm, however, is the sense one gets that these are the first cases of their kind. Your editoiral (October 6) asserts that one main argument against the termination of these two faculty members is that it would set a damaging precedent. In addition you erroneously claim that the UUP maintains the same argument. Aside from the fact that this argument tends to draw attention away from the present case itself, it involves a false assumption. The precedent for nonrenewal without merit considerations was established long before the injustice done to Goodenow and Grabiner caught the public eye. It is appropriate, in light of the possible political motivation in this case, that it should be widely publicized. But the principle behind it, the protection of academic freedom through academic peer review of competence, applies equally well in numerous-cases from the recent past, some of which ate still pending. To cite one example, the philosophy department has come under continual attack for the past six years. Renewal and tenure of highly competent faculty members has been more than an uphill battle. Numerous TA/GA lines have been lost. A number of junior faculty members have not been renewed despite receiving the strongest possible support from both faculty and students who work with them. Presently, the department is still trying to reinstate Matthew Cosgrove who was terminated last year with absolutely no question raised about his academic qualifications. Whether these attacks have resulted from Some political motivation or some distorted view about the place of careful reflection in higher education, is open to specualtion. It is a good thing that The Spectrum and other groups are publicly supporting Goodenow and Grabiner. But these attacks are a good deal more extensive than your editorial would lead one to think. It’s about time that The Spectrum does its homework and let this community know exactly how many times (and in how many different ways) we have already been damaged by precedents of this kind. Lawrence Finsen, Philosophy Caro,l Steinberg, Philosophy The Spectrum In reaction to Dave Brownstein’s (Mon., Oct. 4) reaction to Bill Martin’s (Fri., Oct. 1) “irresponsible” statements regarding SA and Sub Board’s “deplorable” actions, 1 submit the following: David Brownstein’s notion of a “systematic breakdown” of student services (as implied in his .Guest Opinion) is totally irrelevant to the points Bill Martin raises in his Guest Opinion. Mr. Brownstein seems to portray Bill Martin as a Fink who “ran to Daddy” under false pretenses. He must forget that Sub Board had already previously agreed to obtain the approval of the administration as a pre-condition of the Legal Services Program’s implementation. Making Bill Martin a Fink does no justice to SA, as it implies the existence of something worthy of being squealed on. David Brownstein’s mention of “in-house” mechanisms for student input is a travesty of a mockery by itself. Mr. Brownstein continues chopping off his nose to spite his face by implying that Bill Martin could not become a lawyer (ethically) if he were to argue that lawyers “should not be responsible to take any lawsuit brought to them, regardless of whether they feel it is valid or not.” Mr. Brownstein has taken Bill Martin’s statements out of their original context, and misapplied them to the Lawyer’s Code of Ethics . . . perhaps the Bar should take this into account when considering David Brownstein’s admittance and/or refusal. I had an experience in the recent SA-sponsored election which leads me to question mechanisms for “in-house” (student) inputs into SA’s affairs. The election was an insult to the ethics of voting procedures. SA’s policies changed several times during the course of the election, voting booth Were not properly informed, and operators (generally) rules and regulations (as stated) were not adhered to. SA people (of which I am told Mr. Brownstein was one) attempted to suppress endorsement of candidates by the Record Co-Op, long after it had been established at a mandatory meeting for all candidates that endorsement by student clubs and organizations >vas legitimate.

Last year, Student Association spent over $500 on a survey to establish priorities for funding. The outcome was that “Free Legal Representation” was a top priority. With this in mind, Student Association set up a committee to investigate and establish a plan for a Group Legal Services Clinic. In October the committee recessed to allow the Legal Aid Clinic the opportunity to come up with their own proposal. About six jnonths later, the Legal Aid proposal was presented in front of Sub Board I, Inc. (not the committee, for reasons 1 still don’t know) and it called for each student to pay $36 (on top of the $67 mandatory fee) to join the plan and in turn receive very limited coverage. This proposal was rejected because it was felt students would not pay the additional $36. consisting So another committee was formed of one undergraduate, one graduate, and one law student. The ball park figure we had to work with was $30,000. The first question of hiring a law firm or a panel of lawyers. It was decided to hire a law firm.

Thirty-thousand dollars is a lot of money, but let me put it in Mr. Mr. Martin’s criticisms are all valid, and in the general interest of (he body politic pf this University. Such scrutiny of SA and Sub Board by “in-house” seems unsurpassed activities who’ve been elected by an representatives unknowing student body. His desire to make students aware of this problem is admirable, and I hope it will perpetuate more written works in The Spectrum (it being the primary medium to inform students) that will invoke genuine student appraisal of SA’s activities. Too many people in too many positions within too many student clubs have been subtly coerced into being hypocritical of SA by their own fears of losing funding. SA funds these clubs, services and special interest groups, and re-evaluates their fiscal status annually (with this statement 1 must entertain the fear of decreased funding in the future for an organization 1 work with). Such fear, though justified, is nearly as deplorable as Mr. Brownstein’s political hackery of Bill Martin’s perfectly sensible evaluation of the proposed Legal Services Program. Richard H. Fox ton Jr. ’ - Wednesday, 13 October 1976 Vol. 27, No SA people who suppressed the endorsement by the Co-Op never attended this mandatory meeting, nor did they seek out established policy, before approaching the people at the Record Co-Op. It was later re-affirmed by the Elections and Credentials Committee that these candidates did in fact have the right to obtain endorsement by the Record Co-Op. these important questions Upon raising (challenging the validity of the election) on the phone with the Elections and Credentials Committee Chairperson, Gloria Gerber, someone interfered with our phone conversation and hung up the phone. Bill Martin’s desire to see “administrative scrutiny” applied to the Legal Services Program Proposal (as was agreed upon By Sub Board) brings forth a much broader question; What organization with authority does scrutinize SA? Has its autonomy allowed it to become too powerful, irresponsible, and unresponsive to the vast majority of students who’ve voted for its elected officials? Somewhere between the stipends and the students the answer must be found. I leave it up to you. perspective. If we did not establish the Legal Services Clinic, we would still be spending close to $35,000 on. Legal Aid and lawyers retainers. So for about the same amount of money, we are getting a much better service and expanded program. One of the most important points that Mr. Martin brings up is that the program will be totally inadequate in it’s coverage. In all honesty, I don’t know if that it true. However, Mr. Martin has no right to criticize the program for that. When these we took the data from priorities were drawn up the SA Legal Aid Clinic at the clinic. I was told that over 50% of all arrests are drug related. The person then went over the priorities and helped set them up. And who was that person? None other than Bill If Mr. Martin knew that Martin. My question is drugs related arrests did not make up 50% of all arrests, why didn’t he say so? But remember, if the priorities are not meeting the needs of the students, the Board of Directors of Sub Board 1 has the option of hanging those priorities, because this is a pilot program and we are expecting to adjust it. Of course we did not submit the plan to Dr. Lorenzetti before Mr. Martin. It is normal practice to submit a plan after it is approved, not before. So after Mr. Martin shook our hands and told us how he would help us, that Thursday night at the close of the budget hearing (2 a.m.), he went over to Dr. Lorenzetti early Friday to try to have it stopped. The proposal was submitted to Dr. Lorenzetti early the next week. So in conclusion, the Board of Directors of Sub Board I, Inc. voted unanimously to adopt the Legal Services Program. Why? Because the arguments that were presented established that the Legal Services Program was a better program than what exists now. Also, establishing the Legal Services Program is in “the best interest of the students while maintaining the Legal Aid Clinic would be in the best interest of the Legal Aid Clinic.” We chose to act in the best interest of the students, not of any organization. — — Steven Schwartz, President Student Association Editor-in-Chief Wednesday, 13 October 1976 . The Spectrum Page . nine �Bob Dylan. I he story so fei: Bob Dylan was twenty years old when his first Columbia album,“Bob Dylan” was released. It caused its biggest stir in New York’s Greenwich Village where Bob was a local favorite.The liner notes included a reprint of Robert Shelton’s 1961 piece in The New YorkTimes entitled,’’Bob Dylan: A Distinctive Folk-Song StylistTIt included this memorable description \ of Bob Dylan: “Resembling a cross between a choirboy and a beatnick, Mr. Dylan has a cherubic look and a mop of tousled hair he partly covers with a Huck Finn black corduroy cap. His clothes may need a bit of tailoring but when he works his guitar, harmonica or piano and composes new songs faster than he can remember them, there is no doubt that he is bursting at the seams with talent."The first album contained a few originals like “Talkin' New York” and "Song to Woody” and a lot of traditional and composed folk tunes adapted to the emerging Bob Dylan style, including “House of the Risin'Suni'“Man ofConstant Sorrow,”“Fixin’to Die;’“Pretty Peggy-0|’ “Gospel Plow” and “Freight Train Blues.” • • • It took Peter, Paul and Mary’s recording of“Blowin’in the Wind!’a tune from Bob Dylan’s second album, to direct some national attention to this new songwriter. Peter, Paul and Mary followed up their biggest hit with another tune from “The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan” album, "Don’t Think Twice, It’s All Right'.' And the movement was under way. As soon as people got Bob Dylan’s album and heard sOngs like "A Hard Rain’s A-Gohna Fall’’ “Masters of War," “Oxford Town" "Talkin' World War 111 Blues',' and even the lovely "Girl From theNorthCountry," the word spread. Here was somebody who could put it into words. Someone that had to be listened to. And since there wasn't much of a chance to hear Bob Dylan's most powerful songs on the radio, an underground was born: * * • The latest words from Bob Dylan disappointed no one. His “The Times They Are A-Changin’” album took the concept of 'protest music" still another step farther. And by now the stark Bob Dylan style of guitar, harmonica.half-singing.half-talking, was known and accepted (and was being copied) by people everywhere. The new -songs were exciting: With God on Our Side,” One Too Many Mornings,” ‘Only a Pawn in Their Game," “The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll.' “When,the Ship Comes In;’“North Country Blues’,'"Ballad of Hollis Brown"and “Rest less Farewell!' w r 0 0 0 In the song “My Back Pages” Bob Dylan questions his role as the guru of young America. He seems intent on changing his image with the explanation,“1 was so much older then, I'm younger than that now.' Most of the new songs on “Another Side of BobDylan”are less political,more personal. It Ain't Me Babe”drives home the point. All I Really Want to Do!' Motorpsycho Nitemare!' "I Shall Be Free No. 11),""Ballad I in Plain D,' Chimes of Freedom,” Black Crow Blues" and "I Don't Believe You" all seem declarations of freedom from his past. Clues to his future. Bob Dylan fans wonder what's next. Little do they suspect. 1 flk * * • Bob Dylan's first commercial single. Subterranean Homesick Blues,”and a halfelectric, half-acoustic album of enigmatic, rocking, funny, great new tunes. That was next. And with “Bringing^!It 'All Back Home,” the legend of the efer 'changing, always pioneering musical force was bom. The songs confused a lot of people who thought they Hfili 1 him knew Bob Dylan. Which is probably the precise effect Bob Dylan wanted. Included are She Belongs to Me,” "Maggie’s v Farm,” "Love Minus Zero/NoLimit,"“Outlaw Blues,”“Mr. Tambourine Man,” “Gates of Eden,” “It’s Alright Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)," and for anybody who still didn’t get the hint, “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue." •’ “Highway 61 Revisited” was Bob Dylan’s first all-electric, no-doubt-about-the-kindof-music-I-choose-to-make album. It contains his first big hit,“Like a Rolling Stone." And it declared for all the world to hear that Bob Dylan wasn’t simply a brilliant songwriter, but a magnific e n t rock vocalist as well. The songs are extensions of thenewcryptic Bob Dylan stylet’it Takes a Lot to Laugh, ItTakes aTrain toCry,"“Ballad ofaThin Man,"“Queen Jane Approximately,” “Desolation Row,” “Just Like Tom Thumb s Blues,"“From a Buick 6',' "TombstoneB1 uesl'With Michael Bloomfield on guitar, A1 Kooper on organ and piano, Charlie McCoy on guitar and Russ Savakus on bass. • • * In a 1976 issueof Crawdaddy,Peter K nobler said. "No question about it. ‘Blonde on Blonde’is the best rock'n'roll record ever made." He's not the first to feel that way. Reviewers at the time of its release called Blonde on Blonde” the definitive Bob Dylan album, the ultimate rock album, and even the ultimate album, period. It's a two-record set, recorded in Nashville with one of the greatest backup bands in recording history:Charlie McCoy, Kenneth Buttrey, Joe South, A1 Kooper, Jaime Robertson, Wayne Moss and Jerry Kennedy.

Songs that fit the story Bob Dylan seems to be telling here. Also on “Self Portrait”(it’s a two-record set): “Days of 49,” “All the Tired Horses," “Living the Blues,” “Wigwam,” “I Forgot More Than You’ll Ever Know,” “Little Sadie,” “The Mighty Quinn (Quinn the Eskimo),’’“Let It Be MerBelie Isle,’’“It Hurts Me Too,”“Minstrel Boy,” “Take Me as I Am (Or Let Me Go),’’ amongothers. � � • Every Bob Dylan on the first “Greatest H its” albumand every hit that came since is included here, in this two-record set,“Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits/ Volume II.” There are even a bunch of songs never before on any Bob Dylan album: “Watching the River Flow," the single recorded with Leon Russell. 'When 1 Paint My Masterpiece" and “I Shall Be Released,” songs recorded by The Band. "You Ain't Coin’ Nowhere"and"Tomorrow Is a Long Time,” recorded by countless people, but never Bob Dylan. And “Down in the Flood," an old favorite from Bob Dylan’s concert days. Twenty-one great hits in all. If you have all the other albums it’s a beautiful luxury. If you don’t, it's a necessity. hit that wasn’t included tory, this one is completely composed and performed by Bob Dylan, so it’s not like any soundtrack you’ve ever heard. Most of it ,sounds like Bob Dylan, sitting around with a few friends, making real nice music. And as it turned out, one of the real nice songs turned into one of Bob Dylan’s biggest singles, “Knockin’ on Heaven's Door." • • • No individual in rock has ever heard more different interpretations of his songs than Bob Dylan. On “Dylan,” Bob reversed roles with people like Joni Mitchell, Joan Baez, Jerry Jeff Walker and even Elvis, singing songs associated with them ...songs nobody would have expected him to sing... and having a good time, making it all sound like.... wonder of wonders...a Bob Dylan album! Here’s the line-up of tunes; “A Fool Such as I,” “Can’t Help Falling in Love,’’“Mr. Bojangles," “Big Yellow Taxi,” “Mary Ann!’ “Spanish Is the Loving Tongue!’ “Lily of the West,” “The Ballad of Ira Hayes” and“Sarah Jane!’ • * • \ “John Wesley Harding” was a return to simpler things for Bob Dylan.

Page eleven �Special events Intramural program offers some variety While the regular intramural football leagues are going on this fall, the intramural program will be holding several special events this week. Both the Moonlight Tennis Tournament and a Hole-in-One Golf Tournament begin today, while on Saturday, a bicycle Grand Prix will be held. Contestants in the golf tournament, which is new this year, will try to avoid bogies, birdies, pars and eagles as they aim for an elusive holq-in-one. If they don’t get a hole-in-one on the 135-yard hole, they will be awarded a certain number of points, depending on the distance of their shot to the cup. Each contestant gets ten shots, and the man and woman with the best score at the end of the tournament will win the championship Anyone with a valid ID card may enter, and the intramural department will provide equipment to all entrants. The tournament will be held at the Band Building (adjacent to the Amherst Recreation Center on Millersport Highway) from 3-7 p.m. today through Friday. No advance registration is necessary. Calling all cyclists Saturday’s Bicycle Grand Prix likewise is new to the intramural departments lineup this fall. Beginning at 11 a.m. in the Bubble parking lot, a group of cyclists will go through the course, making ten complete traverses. Every fifteen minutes thereafter, another group will enter the course. The five men and five women with the best times will compete at 1 p.m. for the championships. Each contestant must bring his/her own bicycle, and a valid ID card. No advance registration is required. It’s too late now to enter, the Moonlight Tennis Tournament, which begins tonight in the Bubble. Both men and women will compete in the three-day tournament to determine this year’s intramural tennis champions. r Other events in the intramural schedule include a turkey trot, which in previous yeats has awarded a real live turkey (well, actually it’s frozen) to the person who finishes the race first. Usually, the turkey trot is several miles long, but nevertheless draws a large number of contestants. Another new event planned for the spring is a track meet The dates and times for the turkey trot and track meet will be announced, so keep an eye on Backpage of The Spectrum.

But when Mark Bachman aggravated an injury, Buffalo coach Sal Esposito sent Andelora in. With only fifty-eight seconds to go, Andelora sent a shot behind Highlander goalie Joe Prinsell to break a 3-3 tie and give Buffalo their fourth win of the year. It had been raining and windy all day, and Andelora was cold on the bench. “It felt like my legs were going to break when I started running,’’ he said. But when it counted, Andelora was running down the right side of the field, unattended. “Luis Azcue saw me over on the it right wing,” Andelora explained. “He gave me a beautiful cross was right on my foot. 1 just kicked it and when I looked up I saw it go - Karrer’s kicks work Buffalo’s Mark Karrer opened the scoring with a penalty kick that Prinsell couldn’t stop. But the Highlanders’ Jim Wills tied the game less than three minutes later, and then Rob Jacobson put Houghton on top, assisted by Wills. Halftime came with the score still 2-1, and the Highlanders were dominating the game. “I told them [thie Bulls) at halftime to make the short pass and go,” Esposito said. “We had the ball at midfield and were playing with it.” With these new instructions, the Bulls played a much better second half, Esposito noted. Barely five minutes into the second half, a foul by Houghton’s Wills gave Buffalo a free kick. Karrer lofted the ball toward the net, and as it came down, Brian Van Hatten cajne flying in from the left and headed the ball into the net. “That’s something Mark and Brian do very well together,” Esposito said. “Also, it’s something the other team hadn’t seen us do before.” After Wills’ second goal, Mark Parsons of Houghton committed a foul, and again Karrer took the free kick. “This time I didn’t give them any instructions,” Esposito said. “1 just let them do what they wanted to do Karrer’s kick stayed close to the ground and the Houghton squad, obviously expecting the same play as before, was beaten as the shot cleanly entered the left side of the net. With the score tied at 3-3, each team came extremely close to scoring. Jacobson lofted a high shot at Buffalo goalie Bill Bleason, which Gleason was able to reach above the crossbar. The ball glanced off Gleason’s arm, hit the top of the crossbar and bounded back onto the field where a Houghton player headed it into the net. The officials ruled that since the top of the erossbar was out-of-bounds, the ball was dead and the goal was disallowed. With less thap five minutes remaining, Buffalo came within inches of scoring, when Van Hatten took a hard shot, which Prinsell smothered. But the rain had made everything slippery, and the ball slithered out of his hands, right onto the foot of Bachman. His shot was wide of the net by about a foot, leaving the score tied for Andelora’s dramatic goal. ” • Second-ranked Hartwick today Today Buffalo faces the second best soccer team in the nation in Hartwick, at Rotary Field at 3 p.m. Hartwick comes into the game with a 7-0 record, including a 4-3 overtime victory this weekend over number four ranked Philadelphia Textile. “How do you defend against the number two team in the nation when you’re not even in the top ten in the state?” Esposito wondered. ■ “They’re a very aggressive, very disciplined leant,” Esposito said. He added that Hartwick’s passing game was outstanding, and that under a new coach this year, they’re probably a lot better than the Hartwick team which beat Buffalo 7-0 last year. , , Field hockey team beats Bonaventure After six games on the road, right wing, played outstanding the Buffalo field hockey team offensively.” Defensively, Buffalo did hot made a successful home debut last beating St. have much of a problem against Thursday, to the Bonnies.

The broadcast, and NYPIRG, sponsored by WBFO featured representatives of the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), the New York Bar Association Criminal Justice Division, the New York State Office of Drug Abuse Services, and Substance, Abuse and You (SAY). The debate centered around the relative personal and societal harm that is caused by the drug and the social costs involved in prosecuting cases of illegal possession. Possession of marijuana was initially made illegal in 1937 by the passage of the Marijuana Tax Act, which classified carinibus as a narcotic. The Controlled Substances Act reclassified the drug as a hallucinogen in 1970. During this time a Debate... Frank Firoamonti, an attorney and New York State Director for NORML, the pro-marijuana reform legislation lobby, felt that marijuana “prohibition” has not been successful. “The legislation currently on the books is unenforcable. The laws have failed as a deterrent. Last year, 27,000 people were arrested for possession of marijuana in New York State, at a t<?tal cost of $60,000,000 to the taxpayers,” Fioramonti said. “The legal and social costs are tpo great for it to be practical to continue present policy,” he added.

Especially prominent in Schiano s argument are the findings of Dr. Gabriel Nahas of Columbia University.

To think that it is safer and healthier for young people to be arrested, fingerprinted, handcuffed and put in jail is an inhumane treatment of the problem.” Joseph Sedita, Secretary of the New York State Bar Association Criminal Justice Division which has officially advocated decriminalization since 1973 is of similar mind. “Do we impose criminal sanction when we are not sure of the consequences of the act? When the scientists are at odds, does the legislature jump in and make personal acts criminal? Our main complaint is uneven application of the law. In New York City they won’t even issue an indictment for less than ten pounds.” Sedita feels that, owing to the wealth of scientific contradiction on the matter, the marijuana question must eventually be settled on a legal basis. The official statement of his agency claims that enforcement of anti-marijuana legislation “undermines respect for all law” and is therefore counterproductive.

At present, four sites are under consideration in the course of a feasibility study: two sites are the in area of W a 1 d en-Thru way Cheektowaga, one is downtown, and one is near the present terminal on Paderewski Drive, near the Broadway-Fillmore area. This last building was formerly one of the busiest passenger terminals in the world, serving thousands of travelers daily, with a night club, restaurant and a commercial mall. It is currently owned by the Penn Central declared Railfoad, which bankruptcy in 1970. Vastly larger than needed, it now handles only three trains per day (incoming and serves as a outgoing) and connecting between link Cleveland an New York City. However, it is not easily accessible to buses, expressways, or the —continued on page 2— �Railroad sites... planned mass transit line. \ The Penn Central passenger service is now operated by a created federally Amtrak, corporation. Several agencies are the now involved in transportation feasibility study; it is not yet clear who makes the final decision. The Federal, State and City of Buffalo transportation departments, as well as the Niagara Frontier Transportation (NFTA) are Authority the study. represented in However, there is no recognized of representative consumers—railroad passengers on the study committee. Those favoring locations in Cheektowaga cite accessibility to —continued from the Mainline Thruway and the mass shift to the suburbs as advantages. Both the Cheektowaga and the Paderewski Drive locations are adjacent to numerous existing track lines. • Hoyt supports downtown Assemblyman week, Last William B. Hoyt (D., Buffalo) announced his support for a downtown terminal, at the site of the old Exchange Street station, near the Marine Midland Building. In letters to State Transportation Commissioner Raymond Schuler and Amtrak President Paul Reistrup, Hoyt cited economic “Downtown Buffalo reasons; needs a shot in the arm, and I Enjoy a Holiday Meal Under the Stars in the CHABAD SUKKAH at two locations: Chabad House Main Campus 3292 Main St Chabad House Amherst Campus 2501 No. Forest Rd. . - (AFTER SERVICES) Friday, Oct 8th at 7 pm 10 am Sat Oct 9 at—7 pm page 1 — think a downtown train station would be very beneficial to city businesses and would complement the new city convention center very well.” He also cited the accessibility to most bus lines and the planned mass transit line which will be located on Main Street. City of Buffalo transportation is Commissioner Steve Schwartz also supporting the Exchange Street location, for the same reasons. The former Nation is beyond repair, and would have to be torn down before the new terminal could be built. The disadvantage of the biggest Exchange Street facility would be the lack of room for a “turn-around” station. In some cases trains that are reversing direction in Buffalo would have to back out of the station for a considerable distance before they would be able to turn around and go forward to their destination. Amtrak has a policy of not approving stations with this limitation, but there are already other stations in the country that do this, so it might be balanced out by the downtown advantages. Construction costs A much bigger obstacle is the cost of construction. Passenger receipts are not expected to cover the financing; there is still disagreement over how much traffic would be passenger increased by the various locations. had system is being funded by the originally The state Mass Urban Transit committed itself to provide $ 1 U.S. million of the proposed cost, but Administration, • but will be the state’s fiscal crisis has put this administered by the NFTA.

The Executive Committee of the FSA has ordered the committee to. report to |he full Senate “the areas of administration of most concern to the faculty.” The Executive Committee also askfed that the report be filed by the October 19th meeting. The charge continued, “The committee is requested to identify areas of investigation that are central to the University’s academic mission and which can be reasonably reviewed in the remaining academic year. The committee shall then precede to investigate the areas it designated and report its findings to the Senate no later than April 15, 1977.” “It shall be the central purpose of this committee -to study our administration and to make recommendations to improve the structure, functions, and relations of the administration to the faculty bodies,” concluded the order. Jonathan Reichert, Chairman of the FSA Executive Committee, explained that this new, ad-hoc committee was formed to examine the areas of administration most concerned with faculty and students. Reichert explained that the FSA Executive Committee found it necessary to do this administrative evaluation now because the comrtrittee feels the evaluation, is important and because it does not want to wait for someone else to start a similar study. Welcome back Senate committees projects discussed at first meeting , dealt with several key items. The first meeting to be held under the provisions of the Sunshine Law, will take place at Buffalo State College, November 1. The “Sunshine Law” requires the SUNY Board of Trustees to hold four open regional meetings for the students of the SUNY system. The Student Association (SA) Senate held its first meeting of the semester last Tuesday. Steven Spiegel, SA Executive Vice President and Senate Chairman, denied charges that there are new voting blocs powerful enough to obstruct Senate business. Spiegel announced the formation of a Senate Steering Committee. He felt that in the past the Senate has not accomplished as much as it could have, due in part to the fact that the Executive Vice President has been the sole leader of the Senate. The Steering Committee will be made up of the three Selling student addresses The Senate passed a resolution authorizing Bittner and SASU at this University to sell names and addresses of students at this University for the purpose of direct mailing from political campaigns and organizations. SASU is already doing this on a statewide basis. Until now, various political groups could receive these names free of charge from the Board of Elections in the appropriate county. This year the Board of Elections is unable to provide the lists until after the election because they do not have enough staff to fill all the requests^ Senators who are on the SA Executive Committee and three Senators from the Operations and Rules Committee. He said the Senate needs peer leadership and this committee will help formulate the needed goals for the Senate this year. New positions Steven Schwartz, in his Presidential Report, reviewed for the Senate all SA business transacted over the summer. He also announced SA positions that are open. SA is accepting applications for Elections and Credentials Chairperson, SASU Coordinator, Assistant Treasurer and a Director Position on Sub Board. The Senate also passed ai resolution endorsing a “National Day of Student Action.” Additional terms of the resolution stipulate that SA will send students to Albany on October 28 for a statewide mobilization that will include workshops, lectures and a mock trial of New York Governor Hugh Carey. SA is also scheduling workshops, lectures and a local candidates’ forum on campus for the same day. Representatives of the “Committee to Bring Back the Social Science College” attended the meeting in an effort to solicit SA support. The matter was referred by the Senate to the Academic Affairs Task Force, which will work in conjunction with the committee to formulate a plan of action subject to Senate approval. The Student Association for the The Senate must approve any Speakers Bureau expenditure in excess of $2000; planned programs featuring William Shatner and Jack Anderson were approved. Also approved was an amendment to the SA constitution granting full Executive Committee voting rights to the Commuter Affairs Coordinator. State University (SASU) report delivered by Lynn Bittner, Student rates for students Sub Board has announced that students here can now pay student rates for all Buffalo State events simply by presenting a SUNYAB ID card at the ticket office. A reciprocity agreement between UUAB and the Buffalo State Activities Board also grants Buff State Students an identical privilege at this University.

The Council on International Studies sponsored a Canada Week as the new Canadian-American program offering next spring. The sponsors of the seminar included the Office of Cultural Affairs, the Center for Media Studies and WBFO.

They explained that Canada does not have a law comparable to the First Amendment to the United States Constitution, so although their population was quadrupled since 1914, the number of daily Canadian newspapers is actually less. The United States has approximately 1750 daily papers with a combined circulation of 65 million. They further noted that 70 percent of Canada’s first-run movie houses are controlled by the United States and England. Approximately 1.2 million people view movies weekly in Canada. Now, you have to pay for it. | Canada-America comparison The seminar was attended by only five people, most of whome likely were communication majors! The four-member panel included Joseph Lentini, Garth Jowell, Mary Cassala and Moleh Asante. The history and the future of mass, media were the topics of discussion. Newspapers, books, television, radio, movies and magazines were all means of communication that the panelists discussed. A comparison was made between Canadian development and American growth. The basic conclusion of the panel was that Canada’s development is behind that of the United States. Newspaper readership peaked in the United States in about 1921 and about in 1950 in Canada. American television hit its high between 1946-47 while Canadian boob tube 'watching peaked around 1955. The slower development of Canada’s communication industries and mass media was a result of Canada’s closely graped population being spread over a large geographic area. Another reason for this lag was the slowed shift from a rural society to a more urbanized way of life in Canada. ... In Army | » Armed Forces Health Car*.

The mood of the debate was more highly charged and the issues more hotly contested than in their previous encounter. With to self-assuredness, consistency and ability to defend respect §£lN Yankelovich survey, with each candidate garnering 43 percent of those polled. • Essential direction Differing little on the essential direction of American foreign policy, the two candidates clashed mainly over their individual approaches. While Carter raised the spectre of morality in formulating foreign policy, Ford stressed the fact that the United States is finally at peace. “The Governor speaks of morality,” Ford said. “What could In .response to a question probing his quarrel with the Ford handling Administration’s of foreign policy, Carter; issued this attack: “This administration has been one of all style and no substance. The United States is neither strong nor respected. We are the arms merchant of the world. We have become wary of competing with The Soviet Union.” Ford countered that his administration has fact in compiled a long record of diplomatic successes, maintaining that the United States presently “negotiates with the Soviet Union from a position of strength, not weakness.” Ford added that one can’t negotiate with Soviet Party Chairman Brezhenev, enervated by the scale of defense cuts proposed by his opponent. Apparent inconsistency Ford cast doubt on Carter’s credibility citing that the former governor has vacillated on his advocacy of military spending reductions, going from $ 15 billion to $5 billion. In doing so the President hoped to bring to the fore an apparent inconsistency in Carter’s platform. Carter, however, accused the President of using the defense budget as a political football. Initially, he Ford argued, supported reductions in the military complete making a turnabout when the heat was turned on after the firing Secretary of Defense James Jimmy answers, Carter appeared to emerge with a discernible edge. his paramount of importance that Carter make a good show in this con rbntation.

Carter ridiculed Ford, challenging the President to convince Eastern European efhnics here of this contention. Pursuing a tact seemingly irrelevant to the matter at hand, Ford papacy’s cited the approbation of the Helsinki agreement as another factor weighing heavily in its favor. Carter quipped that he wasn’t to his attempting criticze Holiness, just plain, dull old Jerry. In addition. Carter castigated the President for refusing to meet with famed Soviet novelist and dissenter Alexander Solzhenitsyn last year. Turning to the Middle East, Ford defended his accomplishments. The President proffered Israeli Prime Minister Yitzak Rabin’s recent statement that “American influence is at a high point in this critical area,” as a bellweather of his successes. Rabin also claimed that Israeli relations with the United States have never been better. Major concessions Carter observed that the Nixon-Ford administration has ineptly handled some aspects of Middle Eastern policy. He noted Specialists should embrace close relations with underdeveloped nations and allies a trilateral view, not just Cold War confrontation with the Communist bloc the bipolar — Seemingly irrelevant When Carter accused Ford of succumbing to Russian pressures in the recently concluded Helsinki agreement, where for the first time the United States recognized Russian hegemony in Eastern Europe, Ford asserted that certain European Eastern nations (Yugoslavia, Poland and Rumania) declared, that if he were president during a similar crisis, he would “reciprocate in kind,” exporting no armaments, no food, no raw materials, “no nothing,” to those responsible. , During the course of the debate. Ford at a hinted forthcoming breakthrough in the' Strategic Arms Limitations Talks regarding a cap on (SALT) maximum allowable number of Multiple Targeted Reentry (MIRV) missiles. The agreement would probably force the Soviets to reduce their nuclear stockpile. Ford indicated that this Vehicle would be the first time that an American president has been able to obtain concessions of such magnitude from the Soviet Union. Through’out the debate, Ford, consistent with the style of his campaign, came across Presidential. He endeavored to portray Carter as a candidate who not ohly misunderstood the issues but also <misconstrued the facts. Carter however appeared to overcome his chief liability, that of inexperiepce, keeping Ford on through the defensive the perspicacious utilization of attacks.

This preference has stigmatized these people for two thousand years. Until recently the love that dare not speak its name remained underground and only showed up on rare occasions in literature or on the front page of various newspapers in the form of stories about vice sweeps made by the local constabulary. The Stonewall Riots of 1969 changed the image and direction of the gay that the use organizations facilities. Trying to separate the Center from users its is impossible; the Center is made up of the people it serves. Who then does it serve? What are the various groups that come there and what ongoing programs come from them and the Center to aid the gay community?

Besides a dance every the founding night Saturday the Center, group, through maintains many facilities and programs. There is a full range of publications, an active group of committees and much more, all of which are aimed at helping the gay community. With all of these programs and activities available there is still a lot of work that needs to be done by the community at large. Support for a facility of this size requires large amounts of cash and hundreds of man hours. Neither of these is in great abundance at the Center. Sociologically the Buffalo Gay Community Services Center is unique. The prevalent air in Buffalo is one of uptight gay center A conformity. dedicated to the betterment of an oppressed minority is seemingly a contradiction in this town. The socio-religio-political atmosphere is condusive to oppression in order for those in power to maintain a feeling of unearned superiority. Anything outside the realm of official normalacy must be quashed at all costs. (This reporter had to go all the way to New York City and the political conventions to meet and be turned down by the mayor of Buffalo in an attempt to aid fellow gays; of course that meeting could probably not happen here.) The largest problem faced by the Center is the fact that gays themselves are either unaware of its existence or afraid to come up there. The most common excuse is that “I wouldn’t dare be seen there. What if I met someone I knew?” not remembering that the people they know are there for the same reasons they are. The former part of the problem can be laid at the feet of the local media the Center publications and people. Neither of these forces have lived up to their potential and fairness levels in regard to the gay minority. Hopefully more people, will become interested in the Center and its multiple programs, its educational and political stands or just its social events.. For those of you who are gay or who know someone who is the Center is there to help you understand yourselves and friends. Come see us. �Colleges to advertising turn by Helaine Lasky Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Colleges have a better idea. Joining the ranks of business and industry around the country, colleges are turning to the advertising agency to promote their services. For a mere $4800, a college can take out a '’full-page ad in New Yorker magazine. Ne wsweek ’will — bill a college slightly more, about $5165, for a similar black and white ad which is expected to reach a large regional audience. As commercial as this may seem, colleges are paying these prices and bringing their product to Madison Avenue. Several schools, such as Goucher College in Baltimore, a women’s college of about 1,000 students, have pulled off successful advertising coups with the assistance of an ad agency. And when Indiana University opened a new campus five years ago, they launched an advertising campaign which met their recruitment goals within four months, steadily eyeing Loyola University, Indiana’s competitor, only six miles away. Goucher College appealed to “the brave new woman” in an award-winning campaign in the spring of 1975i Working with Van Sant and Dugdale, Inc., an ad agency in Baltimore, Goucher achieved national visibility and has not felt the need to advertise since. dorian Dorsey, director of Publjo Relations at the college, explained that editorial coverage by national publications has been as valuable as formal advertising. In the October 1976 issue of House A Gardens there is a series of four photographs of a wall mural that was painted by a Goucher professor and some students. A reporter from the magazine happened to see it and the rest is public relations history. Goucher also had the good fortune to host the Baltimore Colts football team while they trained at the college and Time mentioned the Colts’ training grounds in a recent article. But not all publicity is free. Declaring that “only brave new women need apply,” Goucher ran its full-page ad in New- Yorker and Newsweek. The machinery of the campaign was managed by Van Sant and Dugdale who received 15 percent of the , “Not many administrators have understood the true meaning of advertising,” said Ruth Adams, vice president of the Van Sant and Dugdale agency. “Too many academics see advertising in terms of a Hollywood movie,” she added. With more administrators coming from the business community than from the academic area, advertising is becoming “less sinful,” according to Adams. In a decade where inflation has become an all-purpose excuse for raising prices and cutting expenditures, many colleges see advertising as a necessity but one which they cannot afford. Nevertheless, most schools hesitate to save costs by going it alone when it comes to advertising. The field is just opening up for advertising in the college arena, according to Adams and there are technical ramifications that colleges are not equipped to handle. “If you need an appendectomy, you don’t tell the doctor where to make the incision,” Adams remarked. Some colleges have tried for the whole operation and failed. As a result, schools such as St. Mary of the Woods College,in Indiana, worked with an ad agency and encouraged other colleges and universities to do the same at a recent advertising conference. Goucher College had Van Sant and Dugdale to thank when enrollment figures rose shortly after the “brave new woman” campaign. The agency, which also handles such clients as the Marriott Hotels, steel manufacturers, Roy Rogers fash-food restaurants, and tractor salespeople,, only works with one college in a particular area at one-time. The agency is not working with any other schools now but maintains that the college ad arena is a “big, huge, wonderful subject.” Adams explained that colleges and universities are past the period when it was a seller’s market. Students have more schools from which to choose and are more discriminatory in their selections. It’s up to the colleges to sell themselves and the ad agency is there, . waiting, and ready to help. Fear, loathing and greed on the college speaking circuit (CPS) “Hubert Humphrey is the biggest swine out of the gutter into politics catapulted to be ever and he wouldn’t know the truth if it crawled up his leg and bit him on the kneecap.” So says Rolling Stone Magazine’s Hunter S. Thompson as he struts across the Johns Hopkins University stage, chain-smoking Dunhills, swigging Wild Turkey and muttering something that most people in the hash smoke-filled arena can’t hear anyways. He mutters some more and then exits, whispering to his aides, “Can I turn around now, is there anything behind me, are you sure it’s all right?” Thompson is strutting across stages in Australia this fall, but the campus speaker circuit in America rolls on and on. Speakers are sometimes boring, often amusing, always eccentric and they’re now hitting colleges in greater numbers than ever before. “Business has really multiplied, it’s really taking off,” crows Bob Walker, president of the American Program Bureau in Massachusetts, the nation’s premier college speaker agency, the nationwide business in campus speakers is “very, very big,” said Walker. “I’d hate to guess how big.” Along with the big demands for a variety of speakers goes the large fees being commandeered. Fees for each engagement range from $1000 to $5000 for clients of the APB firm. Walker says his agency has 400 speakers, beginning twelve years ago by bridging a “major communications gap in this country” with Dick Gregory as their first speaker. Walker claims to run a “very efficient” organization, with a sharp, bright staff of young people and a computer. “John Dean is hot as hell. Ralph Nader, Julian we can’t fit anyone Bond is completely sold out else in.” Walker ticked off more well known names on his list. He explained how some speakers will only be home for a few days out of several months on the circuit, like Vincent Bugliosi (Charlie Manson’s - - prosecutor). With so many engagements, people do tend to get burned out. “Sometimes they don’t even know what city they’re in.” “Greg (Walker’s familiarity for FIRST AMENDMENT MEANS JUST kVHAT X CHOOSE IT TO MEAN NEITHER MORE MOIL magazine charges which is the rule with agencies. College costs depend on the frequency with which the ad appears in a publication. But colleges have hesitated to spend money to advertise while their own costs steadily rise. Newest big business by Steve Lenken and Russ Smith "THB Dick Gregory) does 225 dates a year.” But the fees are worth the efforts, and APB claims up to 30 percent of those fees. The fees appear expensive, but Walker explains that it’s a matter of “supply and demand.” He did say that some speakers cut their fees if the audience is a college group. The highly competitive speaker business has more talent applicants than they can usually handle. The Harry Walker agency of New York said the hiring of speakers is very selective for their firm. APB claims to get 30 or 40 calls a week, rejecting more than they can take'. The APB agency claims to have opened the college market to the'controversial, political people looking for a platform. “We started Timothy Leary off, we did all the blacks, Abbie Hoffman, Jane we started Fonda, the women’s lib movement them off. But at the same time we continued to have cultural speakers like Pearl Buck.” Lord and Dane, another Massachusetts based agency, said they too have a variety of talent ready to meet college needs. Besides such names as F. Lee Bailey, former U.S. Senator Sam Ervin, Florence Kennedy and George Plimpton, the firm handles programs like Alan Funt and his Candid Camera show, the Gus Giordano Dance Co., and comedian Robert Klein. David LaCamera said the fees for that agency range from SI500 to $3500. — While declining to comment about prices charged for speaking engagements, a Harry Walker representative said, “we know what the market value is . . . being in the business for 30 years.” Their top speakers are William Colby, former CIA director; Daniel Patrick Monyihan, former U.N. ambassador; Eldridge Cleaver and Shirley Chisholm, D., N.Y. One college in New Jersey is going to pay Cleaver $3000 for a talk. That same college paid $2500 to hear from historian Arthur Schlesinger last year. The steep prices for these speakers is not causing a recession in this field, but the agencies are in agreement that students making the arrangements are very selective. With ‘supply and demand’ strong, college audiences can expect the ‘market value’ to remain high and the pickings as diverse as possible. California mandate ills first amendment by Carol O’Connor Special to The Spectrum Amendment “The First is a weathervane and there are (CPS) ominous signs that the values it embraces may be in for stdrmy weather. —Retired Justice William O. Douglas The 19 campus newspapers in California which have been told to stop running editorials endorsing off-campus political candidates"and to start running all advertising offered, know which way the political wind is blowing concerning their First Amendment rights. A September 22 mandate delivered to the papers by the California State University and College System Board of Trustees gives the papers six months “to be brought in line with the stipulations” outlined in the brief. The decision apparently came about because a member of the Board of Trustees was “outraged that certain campuses were picking and choosing what ads they would run,” Alex Sherriff, vice-chancellor of academic affairs for California State University, said. Last year, The Spectruhi refused to print several ads from the United States Navy. The Navy and several persons outside the University protested the refusal. ' “They’re telling us that an advertiser’s constitutional rights take precedence over our First Amendment rights to decide the content and presentation of our papers,” Bob Speer, general manager of the Wildcat student paper in Chico, California, said. “It’s our editorial freedom to endorse a political candidate or to not run an advertisement,” he said. The Wildcat has an editorial policy of not running advertisements from groups they disagree with politically. Those groups include Gallo, Safeway stores, ROTC, Coors, Playboy Magazine and “any other firms that are racist or sexist, in nature,” he said. “The reason the trustees don’t want us running editorials endorsing political candidates is because they’re afraid we might offend some politician who has some say about the system,” Speer said. The trustees maintain, however, that since the student papers receive student fees that the which are indirectly state monies papers are instruments of the state. Sherriff acknowledged that the papers could run editorials endorsing political candidates “only if the editorials are signed by an individual staff member and it is made apparent that the editorial reflects only the opinion of that individual.” “If the paper wants to go independent, it can endorse whomever it pleases,” he said. The Board of Trustees 25-page opinion acknowledges that the legal right of a private newspaper to refuse advertising is — — “well-established.” Noticeably missing from the trustees’ opinion is a 1969 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that states, “It can hardly be argued that either students or teachers shed their constitutional rights to freedom of speech or expression at the schoolhouse gate.” (Tinker v. Des Moines Independent Community School District). “We’re ready to fight them as far as we have to go,” Speer said. “This matter should be Settled in court since it demonstrates that the relationship between the student paper and the state — at least how the is basically untenable,” he said. trustees perceive it The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in San Francisco, California, is currently investigating the case. ACLU attorney Margaret’Crosby said there “may be” a violation of the students’ First Amendment rights. “There is a great deal of research to be done before that is determined,” she said. — THERE WILL BE NO ISSUE ON MONDAY!!!!!

Students, staff and faculty of this University need to know that grades have been secretly raised for some students by changes in files at Admissions and Records in violation of University regulations. Administrative .officers who have made these secret changes are Dr. Paul Reitan, Provost of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics and the recently-resigned Dean of the Division of Undergraduate Education, Dr. Charles V. Ebert. By chance I discovered two secret Change of Grade forms without a faculty signature in the records of students to whom 1 assigned grades in 1974. One grade had been C secretly raised to A, the other U secretly raised to S. I filed a grievance with the Faculty Senate and submitted my evidence to a grievance committee chaired by Dr. Finest C. Thompson. . The committee’s report recommended that grade changes based on gross procedural irregularities should not be allowed to stand and recommends that the grade status of the students revert back to what it was prior to December 13, 1974.” The Provost of the Faculty of Natural Sciences, Dr. Reitan, wrote to me ”... I have and have had no responsibilities to act in response to those recommendations.” The roles of Dr. George Hochfield, then chairman of the Faculty Senate, the Falkowski “ . . Committee, the Case Committee, and Dr. Robert Ketter have made the past two years a matter of my efforts to follow University procedures at the cost of great delay. Now it is clear that some students have access to changes in their University records, without the knowledge of the faculty. All students are, damaged by such corruption.

He is almost austere, autocratic, gocf-like, and'completely lacking in ordinary human emotion. He no affection for his Miranda. The only daughter motion he exhibits is anger, and the only thing about which he seems to care is his magical power. A number of commentators on The Tempest have seen Prospero as a tyrant, but Hutt's Prospero does not even have the humanizing pettiness and quirkiness that these interpretations generally ascribe to him. He seems completely abstracted; he is always looking up and away. He is made up and costumed to look like Moses for most of the play. In the text, Prospero's asides commenting on Ferdinand and Miranda seem to humanize him. But as Hutt delivers them deadpan, in a flat, sardonic they do not do so at monotone all: they give no sense of Prospero's personality, nor of any feeling of'joy. Instead, they are merely choric, merely a way of making laugh us at the extravagant emotionalism of the young lovers. It is as if a theater critic were standing aside, looking expresses IH — — at the enthusiasm of these actors, and saying to us with a raised eyebrow, "Well, that's really a bit much, isn't it?" Prospero's attitude here is ironic detachment rather than bemused affection, and we are invited to share that attitude. The audience is forced several times into a metadramatic laugh with no real warmth in it. Missing conflict In fact, what this production is about is Prospero's diminishing from a semi-divine figure to a man, about his abandonment of his power, and nothing more. This is, to be sure, an important part of the play, but it is not the whole thing. Furthermore, the Stratford production gives us no sense of there being any internal struggle conflicting no evidence of emotions in Prospero himself. He does not react to his changing fortunes. He merely becomes less austere, and then changes his costume, at the very end. The calm one usually feels iwth the speech I quoted above ("Our revels .."), the sense of arriving at a resolution, does not occur here, because it does not have any inner conflict on which to build. It just seems that Prospero is . getting quieter This cannot be ascribed to a lack of acting skill on Hutt's part. He* seems to have made a conscientious effort not to express emotion in this season's performances (also as Chebutykin in The Three Sisters and as Lady Bracknell in The Importance of Being Earnest, although not as Vincentio Measure for in Measure), but he has expressed powerfully in emotion very previous years, notably as King Lear in 1972. It is a waste of a fine actor to have Nicholas Pennell play this formalized, static, Ariel unemotional, without personality. Pennell has nothing to do. Usually Ariel is played by a woman or,a boy, and is all lightness and delicacy. He is generally seen to represent Prospero's imaginative faculty, whereas here he seems to represent pure reason and/or control. There is no playfulness at all in the performance, and the liveliness and delicacy of his songs and speeches are absent. — Sickly sweet Because of the over-riding tone of this production, much of the onus for vivacity and comic energy is placed on Ferdinand (Jack Wetherall) and Miranda (Marti Maraden). As a result, and because of the ironic distance enforced by Prospero's attitude, they are at times hard to take. Jack Wetherall's Ferdinand in particular is so fresh and innocent, so lively and youthful, that he becomes painful in the second —continued on page 16— �my The American Contemporary Theatre Actors' Center presents a return of The Bond of Poison by Thom Soloski, after a premiere run at the ACT last May.

And in this case, they were .38 Special, a Southern outift whose biggest claim to fame is that one of their guitarists is the brother of Ron Van Zandt, singer for Lynyrd Skynyrd. Big deal. Their music was, surprisingly enough, quite a bit like that of Skynyrd (even their singer is a Van Zandt look-alike) or, for that matter, any one of the many Mason-Dixon groups: twin lead guitars, two drummers, lots of songs about trains and trucks, etc. Their set was refreshingly tight (like many bands who have not yet achieved fame, .38 Special seems to try a little harder) and, despite the "all been said before" nature of their material, they were fairly entertaining. Although the audience did not demand an encore, one was prompted by the M.C. the guys didn't even leave the stage long enough to see if the crowd really wanted them back. After a brief equipment changeover, Lofgren took the stage with his five-piece backup group (a new keyboard player has been added since the Outside Inn show) and began the first of a series of sloppy, ultra-loud versions of some of his finest songs. Bobby Manriquez, Nils' second lead guitar player, is not taking a much more active part in the group (presently called the Bobby Manriquez band) and his new stature is not only distracting, downright but annoying. Whereas Manriquez' duties at the time of this summer's concert were largely subservient (playing guitar harmony lines, filling in Lofgren-like leads while Nils was busy singing), he is now playing the part of "leader of the band": guitar-god theatrics, loud, lengthy solos, rhythm guitar parts turned up enough to drown out everyone else, (as on the song "Share a Little") and so on. — comliment to Nils' own lead guitar and piano work. Saturday night, he was relegated the task of playing inaudible rhythm guitar throughout most of the set, with a few brief stints at piano. This altered lineup, with Tommy taking the back seat to a keyboard player who didn't fit in, ruined many songs, most notably Carole King's "Coin' Back," whose once meticulously tight arrangement was the highlight of the "bootleg" Back It Up album. Nils himself (as could be expected) put forth the best performance of anyone present his rheumy singing, fiery guitar and precise piano playing were characteristically excellent, despite the lousy sound system, which marred the impact of all three. The star himself was being outdone in volume by his accompanists in more than a few places. He did manage to come through well at times, ("Cry — Tough," "Keith Won't Go" and "It's Not a Crime" were probably his best moments) but the impression I got was that he was not nearly as inspired as he had been last July. Victim of circumstance is a very talented and his band (as previously demonstrated) has the potential to be a great one. As it happened though. Nils was a victim unfavorable of circumstances this last time around this may or may not be a cause for discouragement, but I, for one, intend to give him a second (third) chance. It may just be that I expected too much after Too many cooks what I had seen at the Outside The new keyboard player, Inn; several people who had never although reasonably accomplished seen the act before were very at his job, did not seem to know pleased by Saturday's show. the material as well as everyone Maybe one just has to see a else, and was superfluous in many performer two or three times to places.

It is characterized by a primary contraction of the lungs and accompanied by uncontrollable contractions of the anal sphincter, the p#-itoneal membrane (a deep, sexually sensitive structure) and the scrotum or vaginal cavity. The most telling aspect of the production of Dale Wasserman's stage adaptation of Ken Kesey's One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest in Shea's Theatre Saturday night was the continual, irritating coughing. The audience seemed to be coughing its response to the play. Like the old applause meters which encouraged the audiences of Ted Mack's Amateur Hour to clap harder so the people could see their broadcasted, responses measured, producing outcomes, altering reality and ouw presence, the confirming their coughing which rose from the pits and the balconies provided a continual cacaphonic commentary on the play, a measure not of the volume of applause but the depth of by elicted anxiety the theatrical black men, and all play on the racism which must have been so appealing to the good folks of Buffalo (and Cleveland and Chicago and ...) who had to travel through big, Night/Downtown bad underbelly of Buffalo to get to see the touch.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is ci political and moral anachronism. Perhaps that's why it is so appealing in this era of retrenchment. Insofar as it participates in eternally satisfying myths of a hero's confrontation with the forces of evil, it is outside time and is neither obsolete nor prophetic. But, to the extent to which it uses American culture of the sixties or the microcultural context of an American insane asylum as the stage for these mythical re-enactments, it sorely needs some kind of review* some renewal.

So the world is crazy, and there's — — In the end, at bottom of it all, is the anal sphincter, the brown back door in contracting harder and further homosexual panic as the ward of ten men (including aides and doctor) lisp, prance, embrace, cry, sprawl, cross legs at the knees, stutter M-m-m-m-mama under the maternal Medusa’s head petrification of the mammarian Patched, ultimate Big Nurse who weans her patients only from their sanity and selfhood, "Sucher!" the aides mutter at the patients. "Suck her!” Kesey's and Wasserman's best shot in this vein is when MacMurphy reaches his hammy hnads out to Big Nurse's knobs and gestures tike Aladdin conjuring a genie or a frustrated child playing with T.V. dials as the tube blinks nonsense at him. "Maybe if I can work these right," Mac says, "I can pick up channel eight." What was a smattering of gentle and polite coughs smothered behind cupped hands during the first few scenes, mounted as the play progressed to a climactic orgy — — play. ace, Andy, that is, white men in blac who whined and cringed and sang the blues and talked in jive. The audience really laughed at that stuff. Boy, they went for that But when the little white nurse, the one with a crush on MacMurphy and a large cross pendant over her breasts is almost who gets a hand up taken down by Mac her snatch and another on her tit quicker than you can say “Mercury Molestation" she cries out, "Don't Touch Me! I'm Catholic!" The audience died. Not a sound. Not a cough, not even a giggle, a burp, nothing. Silence. Though the scene was like a hundred other sexual gags which tickled the collective scrotum/labia into laughter. 'Ohmigod," I thought, "they're in the wrong four-fifths of this town." Tm sure their silence wasn't feminist sympathy, nobody here but us psychopaths and paranoiacs. So what else is new? O.K. So institutions are evil and will work like Hell to get you. But the Combine that has reduced man-mountain Chief Bromden to that foggy technological bite-size metaphor circuitry, of mish-mash computer tape, mixed-media tracking, so ugly and spying and manipulation paranoia 1964 when a national looming in by the up vogue, dredged the became killing of the good-father-Jack the Giant is no longer so vague. We Killer Kennedy see the outlines of the Combine more clearly now in 1976, and it is whispered in a chant of acronyms: CIA FBI EXXON ATT IBM... The sorry fact is that OFOTCN is part of it, is one more once-experimental and radical work whose innovativeness and social protest has been undermined by the creep of a cultural Urobouros, the self-consuming worm. OFTOCN is now used against its own audience by the Combine, and only the thoughtless could think this an innocent, thoughtful work. — Terra incognita Perhaps this strange response was a result of what my evening's charming company mentioned earlier: "They’ve seen and it's spoiled the movie,” she noted, the play." Or, perhaps, it was a more general case of cinematic spoilage. For many there this might have been the first theatrical production they had seen, outside a high school play or two. They had no model for their response. This was terra incognita. The closest thing to a play they had ever witnessed might have been a third and long yardage pass by Joe Ferguson. They were treading on turf reserved for intellectuals and other upper class creatures. A fat man behing me leaned over to his wife and whispered in a stage whisper, "When am I supposed to clap?" Thus, nervous, self-conscious coughing. " Or, perhaps, for some, the novelty of 3-D beings parading around on stage just had to be tested. The fact that not only could the audinece hear the actors, but the actors could hear the audience dawned slowly but surely. And at intimate moments (there were so few) the coughers resisted the spell of intimacy which even the largest and corniest of theatrical productions casts, and instead, engaged the actors in a contest of auditory wills, testing the limits of the media to see if this was Prodigal Sun Anal sphincter The jokes, yes, are the Butz-&-locker room variety and my laughter (I couldn't help laughing either; no sense having my deep, sexually-sensitive organ of laughter, excised. I sympathize, brothers and sisters, but I'm not a New Puritan. No way.) My laughter, I say, was mixed with a profound pity for Kesey's hopeless jockhead; you see, he was All-state wrestling champion in the fifties for Oregon. Now he's betrayed all vestiges of MacMurphyness and leads PTA committees and grass roots ecology movements that are doomed to failure before they start, out of his farm in Eugene, Oregon, site of the Electric Cooi-Aid Acid Test. Kesey remains faithful, after all, to his machopathetic pockf>ood. experience. of spasmodic sub-hilarious kakking during the middle of the second (and last) act: dry hacks, phlegny gurgles, husky clearings of throat, compulsive staccato bursts, death eruptions, rattles, eructations and spittle-filled ccccchhhings and tuberculotic trumpetings called and echoed across the cavernous and acoustically absurd ornate interior of Shea's until they became a conscious play above the play, and like notes class, during schoolchildren's ultimately fell into self-parody. As the coughing was so loud as. to actually drown out the dialogue, one joker sustained a long, loud, self-conscious hysterical sound, a hybrid of an engine sputtering and a cow dying. Coming at one of the more dramatic moments of the play when Randall Mac Murphy plays the mirror of Chief it Bromden's moral size and sanity emphasized the discomfort and anxiety the audience experienced at having to watch a hall?) If fOr no other reason, Kesey and Wasserman's play succeeds because it captures an American voice: that vast masculine rumbling from the locker rooms, found in the whisperings of the eternal Butzman flying over the States, spreading his scatology and racism like a cropduster spreads his DDT. — — - Stepin Fetchitism Yes, the coughs were an appropriate response to the play. The lungs found the air exhaled by the play irritating, like the fetid musty odors of a museum, or worse, the symbolic, vestigial odors of a father s corpse, a father you wanted to remain buried. Something stuck in the throat. What? Well, maybe it was the cringing mortification felt at the roles played by black men in "Cuckoo's Nest": there are three black roles, they are tailored for either. / Yes, the coughs were also a reproach to the long smutty joke which is OFOTCN. The scrotum contract were drawn upward into the body, the vaginal'walls clamped shut to prevent forced entry as the jokes which everyone found so brawlingly funny repeated in perfect timing. If Kesey and the playwright. Dale Wasserman share something that makes this play work unfailingly to hold attention, it is comic timing. In the setting of Shea's Theater with its kitschy but endearing pastel embellishment and frenzy of mixed-period furniture, carpeting, American elegance, one soon came to realize the play had found its proper setting: a vaudeville stage, though one disguised as a yet-unnamed something else. (Movie house? Concert Recalcitrant child The play, made from a book and seen after a cinema box-office hit, finally suggests a final resting place for the lobotomized McMurphy and the rest of his crew of castrates; T.V. From a seat in the balcony one could put these things in were These characters perspective. caricatures. It didn't really matter if one could distinguish nuances of facial expression or inflections. The birdlike hands of Dale Harding, so poignant a theme in the novel, is alluded to but never used in the play, as though this were theater (properly the place for such devices) striving to become a T.V. sitcom, avoiding all but the grosser mechanics which could be seen even on 4" screens, shouting lines over the coughing chorus and dim gulf between seat and stage. Perhaps T.V. isn't ready yet, just yet, for this kind of titillation, for the childish curses, breast-fixation and broad humor; but One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, recalcitrant child of the Boob Tube, bertainly depends on punches thrown, homosexual pratfalls, vaudeville humiliation, minor high school locker Night Monday lewdnesses, room Manicheism and racist sterotypes, which, if only they can be managed correctly, might be picked up on Channel Eight. Sometime in 1978. Maybe we'll have forgotten enough about the way things were supposed to be by then, have cured this nagging cough, and will settle down to a good half-hour of "Swine Flu Over the Cuckoo's Nest."

Buoyed by response which he described as "excellent," Ragusa then booked the current series, a nine-film package assembled by New York distributor Joseph Green. Foreign films have always been notoriously poor draws in Buffalo on the whole, but Ragusa is optimistic about his rather bold gamble. "We have five houses (in the Valu-5 complex), and if we turn one of foreign films regularly, it should them into an art house, build up its own audience.

Friday, 8 October 1976 Prodigal Sun �0* ■ ■ 0 *• Our Weekly Reader Richard Brautigan, Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork (Simon & Shuster, 127 pp., $2.95) Richard Brautigan's latest book. Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork, appeared in a hardcover edition last April, announcing itself as a book of poems. Now the reading public is offered what is naturally a cheaper yersion of the same, in paperback. Using an estimated initial press run of 50,000 as a basis for calculation, I figured out in the space of a few minutes today that the paperback issue of Loading (measuring 5 1/4 by 8 inches and weighing 6.4 ounces) has eaten up something like ten tons of or about 11,550,000 square feet high grade paper of stock. I was curious: Is the Richard Brautigan we read here worth this expenditure of trees, pulp, rag, his private affair as private as most of these cheap-shot Brautigan poems should have remained. How much does it change our feelins for the world or light up our sense of the language, for instance, to find out in "Ginger" that — She's glad that Bill likes her. If it is necessary at all for Brautigan to excuse himself to his readers, I much prefer an understated self evaluation he offers us earlier in the book: — and ink? No, he is not. He is not here worth any of it. It does the reader no good at all, of course, to be told that Brautigan has been worth all of that in the past (and more), that his last two literary products were gem-like, superb, and tightly written. But except for a phrase here and there, the successor to these books is sheer fluffaduff, nothing more. Loading will no doubt finally be seeen as simply one of those embarrassing books an authentic Writer is likely to publish along the way, driven to do it either by" the momentary blindness of vanity of by an understandable need for cash. Nobody knows what the experience is worth but its better than sitting on your hands, I keep telling myself. Or so Brautigan assures the reader, and himself, the volume's last "poem." in But this explanation does not satisfy me in the least. I much prefer fman who sits on his hands to a man who, say, picks his nose and eats it for nothing better to do. What the other man does while sitting on his hands is entirely his business, is wholly For fear you will be alone you do so many things that aren't you at all. I do not wish to end what by rights should be a hard review of this book on such a soft not. Brautigan's successes in the past now prompt me to end with an optimistically sentimental flourish, but there are many things left to be said. I will say one of them: When it comes to presenting romantic love in his poetry and, as part of that, when it comes to dealing with women, Brautigan is as irritating and as wrong-headed as a backward old man. Admittedly, he is still a whimsical hipster in all other ways; he is as "west coast" as the Pacific itself and in fact has often been described as the quintessential California writer. But behind the work shirts and the jeans and boots and wire glasses and behind the mane, of golden hair, there resides a man advancing into middle age who is simply and plainly agog for tits and ass, though he manages to conceal it nicely wit h a lubricating romantic sentimentality. — — Signalling, we touch, lying beside each other like waves. roll over into her and look down through / candlelight to say, "Hey, /'m balling you." To be fair, Brautigan seems to have some sense of the deficiency of his own sexual vision: was dive-bombing the lower emotions on a typical yesterday .after / had sworn never to do it again. guess never's too long a time to stay out of the cockpit with the wind screaming down the wings and the target almost praying itself into your / . . / sights. But to add justice to fair play, the reader has to damit thSt the force of imagry irr this poem is squandered on visions of conquest while the imagry associated with real tenderness in this and in most of the poems sinks into the oil of Brautigan's covering sentiment, to emerge again only as colorful patterns on the surface. Finally, like the worst of realistic poetry, Loading Mercury With a Pitchfork never gives us anything but the surface reality of things. And in this book even Brautigan's famous with sinks like a stone things. And in this book even Brautigan's famous wit sinks like a stone in a pond a pond far — too clear to be magical. T.A.

Page thirteen �Music shouldn't stop Grateful Dead at Rochester Aud by Dimitri Popadopoulos Spectrum Staff Writer • There they were: Jerry Garcia with his beard and his green t-shirt; Bob Weir with his cowboy shirt, sleeves rolled and tail untucked; drummers Bill Kreutzman and Micky Hart looking as if they hadn't showered or shaved in a week; Keith the Piano player sporting a mass of hair, shades and a recently developed pot belly from too many Heinekens or Coors; his wife Donna with her long and silky hair and her everpresent smile; and Phil Lesh (Lush, the mechanical wizard absorbed in his oscilloscopes and cycles), conductor of the percussion player section, bass extraordinaire. The archetypical Grateful Dead had returned to the upstate New York area last week for the first time in three years. Excluding a chosen few that had managed to Dead's California hear the Weirdness on this summer's tour, this show was important to the people who had not seen the band since they came out of their semi-retirement. Needless to say, the audience was buzzing as they were in high hopes of a spirited show. They showed this as they battled for key positions around the stage and asked typical questions, such as "do you think they'll do Truckin'' tonight?" sea of Dead freaks made one last attempt to rush closer to the stage. And as the band continued making funny warmup noises, the waves bobbed up and down as the people kept moving. Suddenly Garcia sent opening guitar lightning up to the rafters of Rochester's old War Memorial Auditoirum. Bob Weir belted out "I left muhhome in Northport Virginia, California on my mind" and Chuck Berry's "Jet to the Promised Land" opened yet another Grateful Dead concert. set The Dead's first demonstrated material over the full span of the band's existence. On one extreme they played an old favorite "It's All Over Now," on the other they did an extended version of "Laxy Lightning." Reaching back to his first solo Ip, Garcia sang "Loser" and "Deal." Particularly for their nostalgic value, but not to exclude the Dead's technical propensity, these songs received enormous crowd response. Into the concert? One thing that should be noted at this point is that the crowd was extremely enthusiastic. Even on the mellowest songs ("Looks Like Rain" and "Comes a Time") the crowd stood and cheered. After several standards, the Dead closed their first set with an excellent version of their most recent single "The Music Never Stopped," --continued on page 16— RECORDS Grand Funk Railroad, Good Singin' Good PLayih' * This album is an offspring of what can probably be considered the most bizarre marriage of contemporary rock musician. Grank Funk Railroad, once pegged as the kings of regressive rock, have been joined in the studio by one Mr. Frank Zappa and the result is their thirteenth attempt at an album. Good Singin Good Playin' (but that's a matter of opinion). v Although this team-up must come as a real shocker to both Zappa and Grand Funk enthusiasts, in actuality it's been in the planning stages for the past two years. It seems that Grand Funk asked Zappa to do production work for them about two years ago but nothing ever came about. This was followed by unanimous apprehension; "We weren't sure that was where we were at and where Grand Funk people were at." But later, after Zappa completed his last world tour, the second-guessing subsided, the boys proposed once more, and Zappa ’ big buns so tight so tight (MCA) "Golly gee fellas. Uncle Meat is gonna let us sing a no-no. Come on, let's all do it togither. How cool!" , Muff said. The following song, "Out, To Get You", is where Zappa sits in. After listening to this, one can plainly see why Zappa's the teacher and Farner's the just as student: Zappa's guitar playing is overpowering as ever, and his solo is most definitely the high point of the album. And as for Grand Funk Railroad? They're about as imaginative and creative as they were on "Live" or • « accepted. With all this talk about how and when this merger occurred; one must ask the question.. .why?' One answer is that "Necessity is the mother of invention" (for who knows more about Mothers of Invention that Frank Zappa and who is in greater need of help with their music than Grand Funk?). But after listening to this album, one tends to believe that Grand Funk is too far gone for even the Grand Wazoo to help them now. So in reality, what we have here is Frank Zappa (a.k.a. Merry Prankster) having a hell-of-a-time with four has-been rock and rollers. Good Singin' Good Playin' is mainly comprised of soft rock love ballads: "Miss My Baby," "Just Couldn't Wait," "Release Your Love" and "Crossfire" (the AM nominee), along with a couple more provocative compositions: "1976" and "Don't Let 'Em Take Your Gum." Productionwise nothing out of the ordinary is done, with the exception of attempted spontaneity through leaving no pauses between cuts. As for the Zappa influence it can only really be felt on two cuts, one of which he plays on. The first one is entitled "Big Buns", and is written by Mark Earner, who also wrote eight of the other ten cuts on the album. It's a thirty second piece which goes like this: / wanna grab you by those big buns "On Time"(yawn). This group, Farner-guitar, Brewer-drums, Schacher-bass and Frost-keyboards, has not progressed to this day, and after thirteen tries I've got to believe they never will. Their music is simplistic and one-dimensional. Their lyrics, elementary. With the flood of more sophisticated rockers, Grand Funk is riding the crest out. I guess it's their slow boat to China, excuse me, I mean slow train to China. How about Grand Funk Richshaw? But seriously folks, "Good Singin' Good Playin' is designed for the educated teeny-bopper; excelling at CVO dances. And who's to say there's anything wrong with CYO dances? Not me, heh heh. y —Tim Switala — " Rock and roll? There was no introduction as the Dead took the stage. They simply grabbed their instruments. Kruetzman warmed his limbs with a few loud parradiddles and a flam or two for good luck, and Weir telegraphed the chords to the first song. Rock and Roll? Garcia and Lesh also did their share to build up the suspense by taking an extra-long time to tune up their guitars.

He embraces photographer Vazquez, embraces the reporter, and says, 'We're just lucky to be on record, very lucky and lucky to play." Those that hear this band are the lucky ones.

It is good solid played music, in a sarcastic way. party jazz-rock Electric jungle melodrama is the source of the theatrics. "People Music" gives way to Herbie Hancock and the Head Hunters band. Bennie Maupin is still a major by-product of Hancock. "Sansho Shima" a Maupin composition, is replaced by Eastern objectivity. The music makes one think of the Himalaya's mystic moods. Hancock's use of the Yamaha Electric Grand Piano is good; his notes run through well thought out with Johnette reverses his direction, catching tom-tom fever. Exit stage right. Next, Cannonball Adderley redistributes his sax speech, cutting time and space. The master of masters is Adderley, animating a brass-reed fusion, causing the alfo to speak in a different musical dialect. "Dr. Honoris Causa" (Dr. Herbert Hancock) shows off de Souza's big band trombone, which is covered with baritone nuances, that rush into the multi-dimensional. Lo's electric piano's humor is modal. On the out chorus de Souza and Kenneth Nash's congas collaborate with ease. "Festival" (a de Johnette composition) is a musical transplant that transplants one to Brazil. Multi-percussion rock is brought to you by de Souza and the small orchestra conducted by J.J. Johnson and a cast of stand outs. Colors is another classic of creative music. Bobby Hutcherson, Linger Lane (UA/Bluenote) Special attention must be paid to this album. Because it was recorded outdoors (I dy I wild, California), environmental temperament is the main’ character throughout the recording session, all painted by nature's pen. "People Make the World Go Round," interprets people walking in an animated world with glass slippers. Hutcherson's marimba has a glass effect while soloing, while John Rowin has a colorized , logic underlying his reason. The notes are playful yet powerful, causing one to ask, "Are there realty secrets?" Highlighting the whole album though, is a "love supreme" piano embellishment with an electric-acoustic effect. The multiple waves of tones produce a three-dimensional collage of graphic fpusjc. "Sansho Shima" is the way one must climb the Himalayas to find out what is Herbie Hancock's Secret.

At this point friends and I moved to the upper reaches of the hall. Though the songs that followed this move were done well I noticed that there was something missing. For a while I couldn't place it, but then it came to me. I was sitting too far away from the band.

Still, it is an interesting idea to have him engage the audience directly as he does in his Act III soliloquy, looking right at us as he speaks his on his guitar.

Caliban, in any case, does not play a very important part in this production. The low comic scenes take place rather in limbo; they have no space of their own.

Soft luster is what de Souza has mastered on this ballad of color: a small orchestra enters the scene, introducing themselves with amber sounds. The result is a symphony of musical dreams. Lo uses pastel though, —continued from page 14— nearly always we are distanced from them. This reading of The Tempest turns the play into more of an allegorical pageant than it really is. The play is masque-like, but it is not pure symbol; there are real characters in it. And Prospero is one of them, not a detached, semi-divine prophet. By removing Prospero so completely from the ordinary human world of the other characters and by granting him such awesome powers, Hutt and PHillips have drained any urgency from the action of the play. Everything he does seems pre-determined and visionary, not in any way a reaction to the actions of the other characters. Furthermore, even on this visionary level he does not appear to feel any emotions. He does rejoin the human race at the end of the play, when he abjures his rough magic, but most of the action and feeling of the play has been sacrificed for the sake of this late transition. As a result, the production as a whole is static and undramatic. We are always directed to look beyond what is happening onstage to Prospero's power lying behind it, and so we cqme to feel that.the action we witness does not matter much. The production does succeed in creating a magical aura, and achieves some very beautiful moments, as when Ariel and the dancers make their final exit as if being sucked offstage by a strong wind. There are visual images here which stick in one's mind, but the performance is unnecessarily devoid of feeling. It never moves that us. Running until October 11 on the Festival Stage. Prodigal Sun �the bull pen by David J. Rubin Feature Editor graduates bulldogs. Special Each fall, representatives from multi-national businesses and multi-disciplinary . universities all make trips to scores of schools in the area in the hopes of finding well qualified seniors and graduate students to fill the,handful of spots they may have open: It is a hellish time for students. It is a time for self-ree.valuation, fear, pressure, anxiety, and heavy application expenses. In other words, it rots. One friend recently had a dream about an alternative utopial society for students in this situation. It was a dream of another time and another place where scholarly activities were treated with respect. Students were looked up to instead of down at. Their way of life was something of envy, and not just anyone could spend years and years doing nothing beside educating himself. Each year, around the beginning of October, all the big firms and universities sat around and worried how to lure students into their organizations. They fretted about beginning salaries, tuition waivers, location preferences and fringe benefits. Being an accounting major, this friend dreamed about picking out a job in a large public accounting firm. Each year, the Big Eight (Harvard, Yale, Dartmouth, Columbia, Pennsylvania, Brown Cornell and Princeton) sent letters to the personnel departments at most of the country’s large public accounting firms. The letters usually went something like this: Harvard University will be interviewing prospective employers of its, graduates bn the 20th and 21st of this month. Please contact our University Placement and Guidance office to set a time. Because we have only two days for interviewing, we are forced to set a prerequisite minimum starting salary of $28,000, but any firm unable to meet this requirement is invited to submit an application. The scene then shifted to the weekly meeting of the AAA Certified Public Accounting firm, where the new personnel manager, Arthur Price, was being briefed on how to act during the interview. He had been outfitted with three pairs of jeans and ordered to wear them at least four hours each day so they would be properly broken in. Also, eight tee shirts with the names of each of the Big Eight schools ironed on were prepared. Arthur was told to offer $32,500 as a base salary, but $35,000 to Yale Moderate proposal Arthur, 48 and balding, married with two high school, flew up in the AAA Piper Cub Harvard interview. He spent the night in the and ate dorm food. He even attended a in “Philosophy of the Early 14th Century” just to appear collegiate. But soon it was time for the interview. Two Harvard students sat down with Arthur, who was, of course, all decked out in his jeans, tee shirt, and oh yes, his three-week old Adidas track shoes. They looked at his company’s application and asked him why the president of AAA hadn’t come for the interview. Arthur sweated and apologized saying that the president was out with the flu. They examined AAA’s client list and cast dissatisfied looks at each other because the list included the number five and six oil companies, and the number eight and nine steel producers, hardly up to Harvard’s standards. They asked Arthur if he had any questions about Harvard and he asked about Harvard’s new computerized teaching system. (Actually, Arthur and AAA didn’t give two hoots about the new system, but*he had to ask them something just to make it look good.) He»also asked if this year’s class size was large because he was hoping to maybe get one or two employment offers from Harvard students. They assured him that there were ample students, but did not guarantee him anything because AAA’s starting salary was slightly low. Dismayed, Arthur hurried back to the dorm, changed into some real clothes (a gray suit, white shirt and black tie), and grabbed A cab for the airport. Once on the plane, he struck up a conversation with other Harvard interviewees. One was totally fraught from his experience because they told him. that his starting salary of $29,000 was almost a rejection in itself. Another Was razzled because he feared that the Harvard candidates might be tough on the supervisors they would be serving under once they were on the job. As for Arthur, he figured he didn’t have a chance for a Harvard grad or for any Big Eight. Only — the glamour companies offering for intramurals make a, moderate proposal the bad feelings, which most intramural football players have with regard to the referees. This year intramurals promise to be rhore exciting and competitive than those of recent years past. The instrumental factor was those teams who started, recruiting early; very early often before school starts (the ethics behind such actions might be cause for further discussion at a later time). But the glaring characteristic of this year’s season will most to — certainly be recorded as “competitive.” As a result of the dedication and devotion displayed by the participants of “the game,” the referee has come to bear the burdens of frustration and questionable ability which the only more incapable ones would be in the running for selection this exercise would ease the tensions and put to rest ill feelings shared by several hundred students.

It’s nice to feel loved. 1 was not as happy about the fact that the article was in the form of a personal attack. In an effort to stick to the issues and avoid becoming involved in personal animosities, I will respond only to the few issue-related points made in the article. I didn’t run to “Big Daddy” and invite the administration to review student programs. As summer director of the Student Legal Aid Clinic, 1 went to ask Dr. Lorenzetti about the likelihood of administration approval on the use of mandatory fees to finance the new Legal Services Proposal. 1 did this to learn whether, when the Legal Clinic was shut, down by Sub Board, there would be another program to take its place. (Didn’t any of the experienced Sub Board members realize that administration review and approval would be necessary for the expenditure, regardless of the extent to which this displeases Sub Board members?) My apprehensions have so far proven well-founded. Contrary to Sub Board’s promises that there would be no problem concerning this use of mandatory fees, the administration has not yet OK’d the My beliefs about the $30,000.00 program. administration’s right to review student programs are not relevant to this issue; since such reviews occur, my sense of reality admonishes me to acknowledge that some mandatory fee uses might not be OK’d by the administration. Too bad Sub Board doesn’t have any sense of reality; putting the Legal Aid.Clinic in its present “lame duck” position without inquiring into the likelihood of administration approval on the use of mandatory fees to finance the new program has really left U.B. students up the creek! I have, on numerous occasions, indicated what is wrong with the new proposal and why the Legal Aid Clinic’s present structure is superior to it. Those who want to know the problems inherent in the new proposal (that are avoided by the present Clinic’s structure) should reread the Guest Opinion that appeared in The Spectrum last Friday. I never said that every attorney is obliged to accept every case brought to him. I said and reiterate that this Legal Services Proposal, because it places tremendous discretion in the hands of the attorney as to what coverage is to be provided for students, is an irresponsible, vague, and ilLconceived effort on part the of Sub Board and the Student Administration.

From the general mood, it is clear that the people of the ghetto have a very sense of “familial strong nationalism.” The inhabitants are quick to stand by each others side, to help their neighbor in whatever way they can. The quality of education has subject been a of long controversy. It is generally believed that racial segregation has been a direct cause for any reduction in the teacher quality of the ghetto public schools.

How does anyone expect oUr kids to do as well as others if we get slapped down from the start?” Amidst the blackened bricks and impersonal aura of this displaced “third world,” there is a quiet, subdued ghetto mystique.

Coach Peter Weinreich was quite pleased with his team’s efforts. “They’ve really improved in the last few weeks,” he commented. “Their strength lies in the way they play together.” After the opening match in which Geneseo beat Buffalo State, the Bulls faced Geneseo, and scored seven quick points on the serves of Barb Fislar and Sue Pels. Geneseo’s play was confused an; disorganized, and Buffalo took advantage of this with some well-executed plays that reduced the Blue Knights attack to total ineffectiveness. Geneseo recovered to score a few points near the end but the game was never.in doubt. Buffalo won easily, 15-7. Streaky play The second game of that match started out much the same, with Buffalo scoring easy points on Barbara Staebell’s spikes and Hilary Schlesinger’s serves. After taking an 11-0 lead, Buffalo’s defense fell apart, and Geneseo scored 13 straight points to take the lead. “We' got tight and tense,” explained Weinreich, “and couldn’t place the setter [set up plays] as a result.” The Bulls settled down a little to take the lead,, 14-13. After two more points by Geneseo, Buffalo again took command and won the 18-16. While watching the Buffalo State-Geneseo match, the Bulls noticed some deficiencies in Buffalo State’s bumping game, and used this knowledged very effectively in the last match of the night. The Bulls took charge of the offense and forced many errors by the Bengals. Buffalo needed only six servers to squash the Bengals, 15-4. Evanco stars Buffalo began the second game of that match a little slowly, but then quickly regained their top form. Mary Evanco, fed by setter Pels, continued earning points with her powerful spikes. The Bulls came on strong in the end with Bardak and Pels serving to win another easy one, 15-5. Preshman Evanco was undoubtedly the standout of the night. Although small for a spiker (5’6”), Evanco hit with such power and force that she completely overwhelmed her opponents. Weinreich had Evapco in the second hitter’s position in the Geneseo match, but moved her to the first hitter’s spot against State. This shift paid off with Evanco’s stunning performance in the second match. Unlike last year, Weinreich wants to have, a stable line-up, without a lot of substitutions. He experimented with different line-ups Monday in an attempt to find the best combination. According to Weinreich, he can avoid the frequent substitutions of last year because of the type of players on the team this year. “The players are better all-around players than last year.” Good young players Brockport beats Golf Bulls in tight match “Freshman have Golf coach Bill Dando’s Bulls commented, teams in the past. carried my lost a tight decision to the has over 80 matches Buffalo won Brockport Golden Eagles on with young years good the in past into Tuesday 417-421.

Tuesday, Buffalo opened up a 6-0 lead after three innings and looked like a sure winner. But as the ninth inning rolled around, Niagara was ahead 10-7. That loss left Buffalo with a 7-8 record, but there is a bright Side. The fall season is akin to the major-league’s spring training it doesn’t really count. So Bulls coach Bill Monkarsh spent most of the year experimenting with the line-up to see who will be the top players when the games start to count. Big bats Several players have turned in strong performances this fall. Firstbaseman John White has homered in two of the last three games, accounting for the team’s only homeruns so far this year. John Pederson has been hitting with authority, and freshman Pat Raimondo has been hitting the ball hard, although it has been right at someone most of the time. On the mound, several pitchers have looked like Sandy Koufax one outing and downright awful the next. Mike Betz, who started against Niagara, was effective until the fourth inning, mixing curves and fastballs beautifully. But Niagara scored three times in the fourth, and then Betz yielded a titanic three-run homer to Vince Girardo. Rich Brooks came on to relieve in the fifth and went the rest of the way. Brooks pitched two scoreless innings in relief on Saturday, but was ineffective against Niagara, allowing them to first tie the Score and then make a three-run lead. Mercyhurst and Ithaca coming Buffalo faces Mercyhurst College today in a doubleheader (beginning at 1 p.m. at Peelle Field), and they conclude their season on Sunday against Ithaca (another doublehcader, at 1 p.m.). Ithaca has been in the same boat as the Bulls this year. They too have been inconsistent and own a 7-7 record. Two of the bombers’ top pitchers have been hurt, but their bats have been taking up the slack of late. Co-captains Pete Crandall and Kevin, Van Remmen each homered over the weekend as Ithaca swept two games from Oneonta. Earlier this year, Buffalo split with Oneonta. Both Crandall and Van Remmen have been hitting well over .300, as the Bulls’ Pederson has been. In fact, most of the Bulls are hitting around .300 the team’s average is a lofty .284. — Muslim Student Association meeting There will be regular meetings of the Muslim Student Association each week on Wednesdays only from 12:00-2:00, Norton Union, Room 264.

Unfortunately, the Bulls missed on two opportunities in which to score and regulation time ran out with the score tied 1-1, sending the game into overtime. • Tuesday, the Soccer Bulls were put to a crucial test. Could they be successful with many key players injured? When the Bulls . travelled to Niagara University to over Niagara. By doing so, the Bulls have at least clinched a Big for the Four tie Championship. Applying early pressure to the Eagle defense, George Daddario was able to penetrate on two occasions, but missed on both attempts. Meanwhile, the Buffalo defense' was aided by two superb defensive plays from senior Wain Reed. Buffalo coach Sal Esposito inserted freshman Jeff Andelora into the lineup and minutes later he was in the right place at the right time. With Daddario, Mark Karrer and Brian Van Hatten in front of the Niagara net, Van Hatten was able to get away a point blank shot. Eagles goalie Gerry Conhesdy made a nice save of the kick, but it bounced off his chest, and Andelora was there to poke in the game’s initial score. The Eagles opened the second half with the intent to tie the ball game up. On two successive'plays, Buffalo goalie Bill Gleason made a good save, and then a Niagara shot was just wide of ■ the diving Buffalo netminder. But the Eagles kept on coming and the defensive play of the game was made by the senior Van Hatten. The Eagles Rory Fallon was able to penetrate the Bulls defense and as he was about Jo take a breakaway shot to the Buffalo net, Van Hatten came from out of nowhere, to make a sliding black. Another attempted Niagara score was thwarted by Gleason, as he jumped high and knocked the Eagle kick away with his right victory hand. Score knotted But like all good things that must come to an end, so did the Buffalo lead. When the Eagles Dave Biddle sliced a cornerkick to the Buffalo net, his teammate, Dan Whalka was able to get control of the loose ball and put it by the partially blocked Gleason. With the game tied 1-1, Gleason was quickly called on to make two more difficult saves. The first time he jumped high and knocked the ball down and then held on. On the other save, Gleason made a sliding dive to stop the Eagl£ attack. The Bulls were indeed lucky on this day. When Gleason came out of his goal position to retrieve a Niagara’s Gary ball, loose Lafayette beat him to the ball and faced an open net. Thanks to footwork, fancy Lafayette’s Gleason was able to 'recover in time and Lafayette forced a sljpt that the sliding Gleason knocked away.' 1 • • 2 2 2 left off. Applying even more the Bulls’ Karrer, Daddario and Van Hatten were the constant thorn in the side of the host Eagle squad. On what at first appeared to be the winning goal, Karrer smashed a wicked shot to the left post of Niagara goal. The the ball rebounded, off the post, hit the top of the goal and gently popped out, thus giving the Eagles more breathing room. Minutes later, with time running out, the Bulls Karrer fired a direct kick over the heads of four Eagle defenders, and there was Van Hatten, who headed the ball to the upper right corner of the Niagara net, for the Bulls winning goal. Ahead 2-1, the Bulls really came alive, as Daddario and AH Holder again just missed padding the Buffalo lead. “We didn’t take them lightly,” said Esposito. “Niagara is a crosstown rival and we were very cautious going into the game,” he added. Esposito was happy with the team’s performance although it wasn’t one of their better games. He was especially proud of the play of his reserves like Andelora, Barry Kleeman, Ed Sorkin, Steve DiPasquale and pressure, Dave Todd. In response to the team’s vicotry, Esposito said, “We finally took one in overtime. We’ve never been Jbeaten in overtime, but winning today shows that we can do it.” He continued, “We won today, but it wasn’t our brand of ball. Niagara didn’t play as a team, but we didn’t exactly either.” their capacity.” This year, Houghton has a record of 3-2-1, but that is not indicative of their capabilities. For the past three seasons, the Highlanders have a combined record of 33-6-6. In those three seasons, the Highlanders have won their division title and last year in the NAIA placed eighth The national tournament.

The Bulls’ second doubles Karen Weimer and Cathy Mulhern were beaten by Kathy Cleary and Michele Grusiana 6-1, 4-6, 6-7.

And so that they know that it's affecting them? It’s probably fair to say that few, maybe no such things have happened in'a while making the teacher’s statement above more than just an individual reflection on the recent Buffalo teacher’s strike. It Is well known that America and Buffalo are going through what might become an entire decade of apathy. But Buffalo, in its time, has experienced some of the most virulent labor and campus struggles in the country, and major events such as the strike shatter that apathy, creating active people who are angry and - t demanding change. Buffalo’e fifty thousand .school-age children, their parents and close relatives, their friends, the more than four thousand teachers and subs, the school and city adminsitrators, police called in at picket line complaints, and picket line passers-by, all had the three-week strike as part of their daily lives. They were forced to form opinions, take actions, or go into debt because of Buffalo’s first teacher’s strike in almost thirty years. The strike was precipitated by major disagreements on several issues. According to teachers, the important were; restoration of the points * “disasterous” cuts in curriculum programs; a school administration demand for the power to call “fiscal martial law” and suspend the contract if necessary; class sizes; and naturally, pay levels. According to the Board of Education, pay was the only issue that concerned the union: all other issues would be easily negotiated once pay was resolved. Many teachers were most emotional about the program cuts, demanding that restoration be pul in the contract, so that the Board could not cut the programs again as soon as the strike was over. Pay, of course, became an ever larger issue, as fines against the teachers mounted. Nevertheless, the teachers went back to work four days after the Board restored the programs, and the day after, issues were submitted to impartial arbitration. The major unresolved issue was pay. with the union having made the only significant moderation of its original wage position. Although teacher solidarity behind the strike -was quite high (an amazing dO percent stayed out all three weeks), the position of the union grew more and more grim as the strike continued. Public opinion, initially divided, and eyen leaning a slightly toward the union (according Courier-lxiircw survVy). was shifting against the teachers in the last week. Groups (such as til'll I)), which had initially announced support for the union, in it> fight to restore programs, in the last few days even went so far as to picket in GSEU will withdraw from PERB hearings if Somit allows meeting Contributing Editor Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) President Howard Kling said the union will withdraw from its hearings with the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB) if written confirmation of a meeting is received from Acting President Albert Somit. The purpose of the PERB hearings had been to gain public recognition for GSEU. Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow. speaking on Soniit’s' behalf, said GSEU could not legally meet with Somit until the union had withdrawn from legal procedures with PERB. Siggelkow said Somit could not enter into a potentially binding agreement that may lead him (Somit) to overstep his hearing officer assigned to the case, told a GSEU Committee September 24 in Albany, that it would be to their advantage if discontinued. litigation was Milowc said that it the GSHU continued to proceed with the hearings, he would rule that the appropriate unit tor the Teaching Assistants and Graduate Assistants (TA's and GA's) is a state-wide unit and not a local one. This ruling would present a problem to the GSEU. whose : v *** authority. Siggelkow said GSEU can either integrate with the Graduate Student Association (GSA) or a union day confirm with could meet representatives Somit sometime after GSEU had officially withdrawn from the PERB proceeding. Publications ' officer GSEU Michael Sartisky explained that GSEU would only accept a written agreement "since Dr. Somit had reneged on an earlier verbal appointment." spokeswoman, PERB A however, said in an interview Monday that it would be legal tor Somit to meet with GSEU the to representatives prior union's official withdrawal from PERB hearings. Adverse ruling warned Harvey) Milowc, the PERU protest of continued teacher- absence fromparent classrooms. Ad-hoc the organizations also, began calling for an end and the union position to the strike continued to erode. “We settled because at least we got the programs back for a while, and with arbitration we've got some chance for a littjy more pay.” one teacher said. unique on the Commenting circumstances surrounding the strike, one teacher had this to say; "Before, every year the contract came up for renewal, we’d both give a bit.

It is illegal to. be fired specifically because of polygraph test results- although an employer has the right to terminate one’s employment for whatever other , reason he desires. tests, * Richard Siggelkow “But this time it was different.” he continued. “The Board wouldn't budge an inch. For nine months of negotiations, we didn’t advance at all. We were pushed against the wall, and did something most of us never thought would actually happen." Another teacher declared, “Some of the teachers out there had been teaching for' were they thirty years, and boy bewildered, out on the street, and' the papers calling them criminals. For almost all of us, this was the first strike ever, and a lot of us didn’t think it was completely right, either. But as the strike went on, it became more and more clear to us that the Board wasn’t out to find any equitable middle ground, so we’d all get a fair shake. The Spectrum Unscrupulous employers There are laws protecting the rights ot employees, but they seem Ip be effective only with union membership. Non-union employees are protected by laws against discriminatory but, according to the Bureau practices employment of Labor Relations, “regardless of the law, or administrative procedure, it takes a highly persistent worker to pursue his or her job rights through layers of management, commissions, boards, and courts. Harold Mero, Chairman of the Board of the stated, Academy of Certified Polygraphists licensed states require “Nineteen to twenty-one polygraphers to administer the tests, but New York is not one of them.” This leaves a worker with little protection against unscrupulous employers who might administer a test for any personal reason, not just to protect himself and his establishment trom irresponsible employees. Since these tests are So easily administered, one could question the level of accuracy and consistency . by Dimitri Papadopoulos unfinished Homework exists, As an example, the question. "How many times have you smoked pot?" would be difficult for a majority of students to answer. Most of the stores that administer the tests are big chains and many of their workers are students working part-time. Judgement or fact? Assuming each question is answered as hilly as possible, are the answers recorded by the polygrapher fact or judgement? According to Frank Tesseymail. "It is the polygrapher's job to make some sort of judgement as to whether or not an employee has-lied. Mero. however, contends that. "The polygrapher. reports tacts, he doesp make a recommendation."

I I �Now for something entirely different by Russ Smith Special to The Spectrum (CPS) — “When our opponents say issue, we say Gesundheit,” Skip Slyfield last spring while stumping fojr chortled Jay Adkins and the top two spots in the Student Government at _thfe University of Texas (UT). At the outset of the campaign not many sharpies were placing bets on the absurdist Arts and Sausages Party that Adkins and Slyfield promoted. Even less took them seriously. Undaunted, the Arts and Sausages combed the campus, performing guerilla theater and sing-outs, hosting question and answer periods and theatrical skits. The party platform promised euthanasia on demand, the disarmanent of UT police, pay toilets for faculty and administration restrooms, and groundskeepers armed with wolverines to protect the campus. , . They suggested that the University be renamed “Fat City.” No one gave them a chance, but Adkins and Slyfield stomped their rivals silly in the election. Three times the number of usual voters were wooed to the polls mostly because of the Arts and Sausage’s original promises and off the wall campaign tactics. Once he was in, president-elect Adkins announced, “We’re gonna drag student government wailing and screeching into the streets where students can — deal with it.” Of course this was all last spring. Most cynics worth their salt would probably claim that these crazy characters pulled the election caper just for a goof, and were never intent on following through in the fall. But Adkins and Slyfield didn’t have time to back out. The day after they were elected, the newly enfranchised duo attended a reception for the Board of Regents. They pressed flesh and swilled ritzy liquor while attempting to mingle with top Texan brass. They didn’t cut it. The next day the Arts and Sausages were, informed the Board of Regents had voted to suspend funds for the Student Government. “They cut our balls off, left us standing naked, one-legged by a telephone booth,” recalls Slyfield. “Put your money where our mouth is,” was the motto for a series of student fundraisers called the “Art's and Sausages Traveling Road Shows.” The appearances offered more skits and songs, hustles and pitches, in fact, any wild antics that lived up to the campaign promise of a spectacle each month. And apparently these gypsy-like stints went over big, because the Arts and Sausages raised more money among the students than is usually allocated by the Board of Regents. Now that they’re in the money, Adkins and Slyfield are trying to demystify their positions, holding office hours on an outside mall where they can talk to a large number of students. In addition to providing constant campus happenings, boozy revels and a humorous atmosphere, they are serious about challenging the administration. “We’re gonna be pesky gnats, stepping over the lines that the administration bullies have drawn,” warned Slyfield. * The Arts and Sausages plan to ask embarrassing questions and ask them loudly. Currently, the-Party is supporting the striking booksellers and shuttle-bus drivers who allege that the University’s Wallace bookstore engages in unfair labor practices. revisions upon As for the traditional student government fodder revisions' of amendments to constitutions, dull meetings with faculty and administrators Adkins and Slyfield aren’t interested. They have appointed “highly intelligent” people to take care of the mundane committee work, the drudgery that consumes ninety ( , percent of the student government’s time. “We tell the people, here’s the money, if you have any problems we’ll help. Otherwise, \ve don’t want to hear from you,” says Slyfield. — — Clockwork Orange A The resignation Monday of our of Secretary illustrious Butz, babbling Earl Agriculture, came as one of the. most satisfying sidelights of the 1976 His campaigrt. presidential earlier fiasco concerning remarks made about Italian-Americans were only an evil portent of the shamelessly racist statements he made last week.

Wednesday, 6 October 1976 Faculty-Senate Firing policy to be reviewed A nine-member Faculty-Senate committee has been nominated to review the Division of Undergraduate Education's (DUE) policy on the criteria for academic dismissals. Acting DUE Dean Waiter Kunz, selected to be a member of the committee, stated that the DUE would cooperate with the Faculty-Senate “in any way possible.” He felt, however, that the basic structure of DUE academic dismissals procedure was not in need of significant changes. academic undergraduate all At present dismissals, except for Equal Opportunity Program students, are carried out by DUE advisors. At the Faculty-Senate meeting last week, introduced a Professor Nicholas Kazarinoff resolution calling for the formalization of existing academib standards, and greater faculty participation in the dismissal procedure. The resolution in part asked that probation be assigned to students whose overall grade point average falls below 2.0 for the first time, and that once a student has been placed on probation, he or she is expected during the next registered semester to raise his/her overall average to 2.0, or make a substantial reduction in the grade point deficit. Continuing, the resolution asked that the Dean of Undergraduate Studies form an Administrative Board, comprised mostly of faculty, to enforce probation regulations and to adopt any new procedures necessary for enforcement. In every instance the student will have the right to petition the Board for reinstatement after academic dismissal. If adopted, these regulations "will take effect at the end of the 1976-77 academic year. Kunz, Kazarinoff and Riechart were all asked if they saw any potential conflicts between this proposed panel and a standing DUE committee that reviews the criteria and procedures for dismissals. The three saw no problems arising and Kazarinoff predicted that any difficulties could be easily resolved among the concerned parties. Both Riechart and Kazarinoff said they had been unaware of any DUE committee existing prior to the recent proposals. Riechart said the main impetus for the resolution came from President Robert Ketter, who expressed concern that present dismissal procedures were “fuzzy and ambiguous.” Student feeling on the issue has yet to be tested. Gary Samartano �Chilean generals suspected in murder of ambassador was born a Chilean, I am a Chilean, and I will die a Chilean. They, the fascists, were born traitors, live as traitors, and will be remembered forever as fascist / traitors. Orlando Letelier, late Chilean exile and former Chilean ambassador to U.S. This was the response <A Orlando Letelier when stripped of his citizenship three weeks ago, by the junta that had overthrown his government three years before. Twelve days later he was dead. Both his legs were severed, resulting in a fatal loss of blood, in an explosion that destroyed his car while traveling on Embassy Row in Washington, D.C. The assassination drew a chorus, of angry denunciations which he could 'and no doubt did use to deny the junta desperately needed aid, cemented him in the role of a unity figure who could build' effective international pressure and force the fall of the fascist junta. Then, on September 10, the generals denounced Letelier as a traitor and stripped him of his citizenship in a probable show of frustration at his meddling in “their” affairs. The particular' issue: the Netherlands had just denied Chile a $63 million dollar loan, and Letelier is closely associated with the Trans National Institute, an organization with contacts in Dutch banking realms. Letelier responded with the blistering words that’ opened this article, and was killed within days. met and corresponded quite often , Asked to comment on the aftermath of Letelier’s death, responded, Michaels “Unfortunately, the loss of this Even with the junta’s phalanx of lawyers and salesmen, Chile’s loan, and international aid, investment picture continues to look poor, as the developed nations wait to be more certain of the country’s economic viability. In fact, the most active international element in creating that stability, it seems, is the United States. Having given Chile more than three hundred million dollars in economic aid since the coup (ten times more than in the junta campaign to end this interference. Shortly before the September ’73 coup, and before Letelier was called back as ambassador, Henry Kissinger had assured him that the U.S. had no involvement in the rising turmoil in Chile. Letelier, by all accounts, believed and trusted Kissinger, and advised President Allende to this affect. Subsequent revelations certainly proved his trust unfounded. And so Letelier, imprisoned in A close friend Although {he New York Times speculated that left wing terrorists too could be responsible, Dr. Albert Michaels, a close friend of Letelier, and a professor at this University, called this ridiculous. “I don’t know why it’s so important to know who precisely committed the assassination,” he said, “When we know the reasons: the junta is in frantic need of foreign funds, and Orlando was probably very influential, at times, in denying them.” “Though we will never know the degree of their involvement, it is obVious that the junta was the main beneficiary of this murder. And it was a professional job.” Michaels, who arranged for a Letelier visit here' in 1972, also Orlando Letelier added that he was one of the few figures who could from and nations, many Congressional leaders in our own transcend Michaels contends that Letelier country.

Anti-junta activity Orlando Letelier was a Chilean economist working for ten years with the this country in Inter-American Development Bank In 1970 he was appointed by the recently elected President Salvador Allende to be Chile’s ambassador to the United States. With crisis mounting in Chile, Letelier was called back to his country in 1973 to serve in the “socialist” Allende government.

Rhodesia is an island of white supremacy in a sea of Black African nations. When Smith unilaterally declared his country’s independence from England on November 1 1, 1965 over the issue of Majority rule, Rhodesia joined South Africa as an outcast of both the African Continent apd the United Nations. Years of United Nations sanctioned boycotts and economic blockades have not visibly softened Rhodesia’s opposition to majority rule in a nation of only 270,000 whites among six million blatks. Rhodesia is currently beset by a bloody guerrilla war launched by black Rhodesian nationalists with support of the surrounding black rule was that the ongoing guerrilla war which had been sitnmering since 1972 erupted last year after negotiations broke down between Smith and the long-time leader of the moderate nationalist group, “Zimbabwe African People’s Union,” Joshua Nkomo* What had been a relatively minor problem security-wise for the past three years had beep transformed into a matter of supreme importance national survival (or at least the survival of this minority white blacks, but a white chairman. The council will draft a majority rule supervise constitution and elections within two years. The Council of State will also appoint a Council of Ministers who will regime). More provisions Also agreed upon was an immediate organization of a trust fund to expand industrial and mineral production, enhance agricultural potential and finance training and education programs will be immediately organized. A fourth and unacknowledged — All-told there are only 1200 operating presently in Rhodesia but 12,000 more are guerrillas reliably reported to be training in Mozambique. Thus, the worsening security situation was also a factor in Smith’s sudden reversal, as the Rhodesian security forces were have executive responsibilities over governmental departments. It will have a black majority and a black chief minister but the ministries of defense and law and order will remain in white hands during this two-year transition. expected acceptance of the plan by the five so-called Black African “front-line” countries (Zambia, Angola, Tanzania, Botswana and Mozambique) namely over certain proposed clauses the in agreement. disputed The clauses are basically minimal in nature (which means that they should be resolved without the need for such protracted negotiations) and should not interfere in any way with the final enactment of the agreement. Disagreement Essentially, the disagreement centers upon several facets of the interim government. One of the major problems in the makeup of the transitional government, according to President' Julius K. nations. What has changed Rhodesia’s mind about majority rule especially in view of Smith’s off-repeated blandishment, “I will nevepaccept majority rule in my 'tifelime.” The answer can be summed up in the word ‘pressure,’ political and economic, demographic. For months, Rhodesia has been low by painful economic The years of strangulation. economic self-sufficiency and laid steady growth are over. Nations as politically diverse as the United States and North Kcirea had for years ignored the United Nations’ ban on Rhodesian trade, thus illicitly bolstering the vulnerable Rhodesian colony. But when the Portugese were ousted from neighboring Angola and Mozambique, Rhodesia found itself landlocked. Cut off from seaports and railroads in these two nations, Rhodesia was forced to rely on South African facilities for its survival. • After talks with Kissinger, South African Prime Minister John Vorster committed himself to majority rule in Rhodesia. Vorster subtly W h e. n threatened to deprive Rhodesia of his country’s freight facilities unless some -accommodation was reached between *Smitli and the black nationalist forces. Smith knew that his white supremacist regime was living on marked time. Vorster’s interest in resolving the Rhodesian impasse was based on two shaky assumptions. For one, he. hoped that by having a hand in resolving a matter of such integral political significance in the eyes of the world, he could gain a credence and a legitimacy that has heretofore eluded apartheid South Africa. Vorster also hoped that by tossing out a few “crumbs” to the moderate Black African leaders like Kenneth D. Kaunda of Zambia and giving up Rhodesia, world attention might be shifted away from South Africa’s apartheid policies. But this line of reasoning " is naive. 1 The second problem Which forced Rhodesia eventually to. shift to majority overwhelming rapidly beginning to find their strength spread thin around tfy: country in order to combat attacks that were occurring in increasingly disparate locations. • The third, and eventually the far-teaching most for pressure Smith’s reluctant capitulation to Kissinger’s diplomacy, was the population problem. With a of only 27(1,000 population whites and 6,000,008 blacks, and with emigration over the past year far outpacing immigration (to the tune of 9,000 whites leaving .vs. 800 arriving), it wouldn’t be long before the Rhodesian army would find itself fighting for a dwindling populace. Therefore, there was nothing for Smith to do but to accept Kissinger’s, proposals and Hope for the best. Essentially, the major provisions of the plan as made known by Smith were that Rhodesia will agree to majority rule within two years and representatives of the Rhodesian government immediately meet with black leaders to form a bi-racial temporary government composed of a council of state and a council of ministers that will govern until majority rule is through , a new achieved constitution and elections. The supreme body of the interim government will be the Council of State which will have an equal number of whites and 634-9051 HAIRCUTTERS of the ColUe*un SALON, INC Styles of today with a touch of tomorrow SHERIDAN So rr Highlighting and conditioning with all organic, vegetable HENNA.

Page five �Editorial The fired faculty The protest arising from the firing of Ronald Goodenow and Gene Grabiner, two assistant professors of Education, appears to be well founded. Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Bunn, in a reversal of the faculty judgement to renew the two contracts, places in question the concept of peer review of contract procedures for tenured and untenured faculty. The manner in which the terminations were carried out notice arrived on the last possible legal date raises suspicions that there may have been ulterior motives for the firings. The ensuing silence by Bunn is also — — disconcerning. There is always the danger in large, bureaucratic public universities that administrators will subvert the right of the faculty to review itself, to be the final arbiter of who has distinguished themselves and improved the University. We have in the past urged greater student participation in this process, and have in recent years been accomodated: non-voting students sit on the board which reviews decision on granting tenure. But as students it serves us well to support faculty resistance to attempts by Hayes Hall to override the decision of department faculty, and the acting provost of the faculty of Educational Studies. The most potentially damaging aspect of Goodenow and Grabiners' termination would be the precedent of ending a faculty member's appointment at the end of his term contract without some proof of incompetence. This is the position of. the United University Professional (UUP). Obviously, the UUP position is designed to protect faculty from arbitrary terminations. It is possible that such a position may allow unproductive, untalented faculty to continue their employment here indefinitely, but both these professors have been approved by their colleagues, and both have excellent records of published articles. Certainly, we feel, peer review is preferable to administrative review of contracts. Our suspicion of ulterior political motives is furthered by Goodenow and Grabiners' association with the School of Social Foundations, and Grabiners' involvement with the now defunct Social Sciences College, and with Women's Studies College. The current of feeling among many conservative administrators here is that in these times of fiscal austerity, the School of Social Foundations and Colleges like Social Sciences and Women's Studies are unnecessary liberal appendages to the core of traditional university programs. There may also be a feeling that by undercutting these programs, some of the political dissent to which they are a home will be dampened. We hope these sentiments are not behind Goodenow and Grabiner's quiet firing, and we encourage all members of the University to support their reinstatement.

Wednesday, 6 October 1976 party against Joe Clark, leader of the conservatives, with Edward Broadbent (a kind of third party Gene but a socialist) leading the New McCarthy Democrats. No need of primaries in such a system where it’s all arranged in advance. An arrangement like that would convulse Washington and undermine professional politicians TRB - Those irritating Canadians have cpme up with another of their crackpot notions. They think elections last too long. Their last election (1974) Iksted two months and' could be shortened, what with modern communications, transportation and all. Sixty days they say, bores voters. What an outrageous thought. Our election lasts a year or more. I was up slogging in the snow in New Hampshire with Reagan and Carter and now there is still a month to go. As soon as it is over the mid-term Congressional election starts and after that 1980. America is always electioneering. We are proud of our system, of course. Infiltration of radical notions from Canada shocks us, and might sour relations. Who knows: some US newspaper might send an exploratory team up to Canada to examine their strange system. Slight chance; we are interested in Europe and Africa, not what happens next door; we are insulated by an unfortified border. Where nations build iron walls they take an avid interest in the other side. The US-Canadian relationship is. so calm that we forget for years at a "time that anybody is there. Then a 60-days strange thought breaks through elections; normally wa are protected bykind of ozone layer of apathy. There are other preposterous Canadian notions; one example gun control. It isn’t even an issue up there. There has always been Federal regulation of firearms; to own a handgun practically takes an act of Parliament. It is an example of bureaucratic interference. By contrast, the 1969 staff report on “Firearms & Violence” of the Milton Eisenhower Commission of Crime estimated 40 million firearms loose in this country. There are more now. Our affluent National Rifle Association, the most powerful single-issue lobby in Washington is the first to tell you how valuable these guns are. If there were a domestic insurrection, say, or an invasion from Russia 1 our citizenry could spring to arms; or to Saturday Night Specials, anyway at a moment’s notice. Those unregistered hand guns may send up the US murder rate a bit but, so what? That’s better than government interference. Canadians are nuts on other subjects, too. They have had health insurance for years (another example of state interference). Free enterprise isn’t revered as it ought to be. The government owns air and rail lines and operates a communications channel. Tl)e government also reigsters voters at elections instead of leaving the initiative to the citizen.. How bureaucratic can you get? All the European democracies follow the same practice as Canada; it is fortunate that at least one nation — • - — — preserves private initiative; too many people vote anyway. Canada’s elections are short because everybody knows the leaders in advance; if Prime Minister Trudeau called one next week (which he could do) he would automatically run as head of the liberal everywhere. Fortunately Americans haven’t noticed it. “The institutional structure bequeathed to twentieth century America by the eighteenth century,” observes James Sundquist in a recent Brookings study, “is more complex than that of any other democratic country in the world.” Exactly; we are proud of it. When some foreigner says wonderingly that his country couldn’t possibly make the system work we blush modestly. Take our election. It would last only 60 days in Canada because they know who the leaders are in advance and what they stand for; they have been in the Commons for years. How dull; they must feature issues not personalities. Our sprightlier system has more adventure; Qobody is quite sure what the parties stand for anyway, and the new President, when elected, won’t be bound in any case. Jimmy Carter is still a stranger to many. We have the fun of taking a sporting chance; of inserting a ballot and pulling out a surprise package. (What if the contest takes a year?We have to fill the papers up some way, don’t we, and Gallup polls are more interesting than batting averages.) There’s an unfortunate defeatist tendency at present about our venerable system: the Hart Research Associates in a poll sajy that maybe 50 percent of the eligibles won’t yote this November (70 million). Too boring, they say. (In 1974, 75 percent of Canadians voted.) Many of the prospective non-voters seem to be waiting for a somebody with charisma, a hero-type candidate man on horseback, say, a Mussolini. They are opting out of democracy. Maybe the debates will turn them on. In any case we must guard the temporarily disaffected from radical notions from Canada. They challenge our institutions. Take debates, for example. Canada has nothing to compare with the brilliant Carter-Ford debate with its spectacular media coverage and public excitement, tinder the drab Canadian system they bring the party leaders right on the floor of the House of Commons all the time and ask then) questions. There sits Trudeau and there sits Clark, and they debate each other: naturally that takes all the excitement out of it; it shows how you can ruin something by making it commonplace. Under a system like that Nixon, as head of his party, would have been questioned about Watergate by his political opposition right on the floor; he would either have explained or been chucked out. Probably a Canadian Watergate couldn’t happen. The Canadian infiltration will continue and seems to be getting worse. Maybe our ozone shield of apathy to the North is being dissipated by aerosol squirts of discontent. Maybe the protection of an unfortified border is giving way. Should we fortify? It wouldn’t cost much; Defense Secretary Rurhsfield is raising his request to $120 billion for FY 1978 ($112 billions last year) and fortification would amount to only $3 to $5 billion. It provides lots of employment too. There’s always one difficulty. Fortification can stop tanks; but ideas ? — — Legal services proposal revisited To the Editor. “ The Guest Opinion offered by Billy Martin in last Friday’s The Spectrum was a singular example of how malicious inuendos, half truths and total fabrications can be blended to create an entertaining essay. I assume, however, that Mr. Martin wanted to accomplish more than simply bringing a chuckle to our day. Somewhere in the midst of the fantasy of colusion and conspiracy which Mr. Martin weaved I sensed the desire to actually be stating facts. To set right every inaccuracy expressed would require a nearly line by line rewrite. It is not my wish to respond with as lengthy a piece as the original, so I will limit my corrections to the following major points: The $28,500 being paid to the law firm Sub Board is retaining will be spaced out over the course of the next year. No lump payments are being made prior to receiving services. x The intent of the $100 escrow account payment is purely to assist in paying for a lawyer, obviously not to cover the entire cost. If this strikes anyone as a bad deal, please recall that the maximum any student pays to qualify for this as well as all other student services is $67. If one breaks down the $28,500 into individual services, it is true that it might seem to be inadequate. This should be indicative of what a bargain we are receiving. There is no danger of getting charged more. The price and services are specified in a contract. Since we are contracting for a comprehensive array of services, their package price simply comes to less than if each service was selection of a law firm was not made until after the proposal was endorsed. The hearing forum used to decide upon finding this program and the method used to advertise the Directorship of the program were consistent with those used for every other Sub Board division. Sub Board was acutely aware of the potential pitfalls involved in establishing a Legal Services program. For this reason the process of outlining, funding and implementing the plan was done with great care over the course of several months. At this point Sub Board is awaiting Appelate Division approval so that all phases of the program may begin operation. The para-legal and educational activities of the Legal Aid Clinic have been smoothly transferred to operate within the structure of the Legal Services Program. The purpose of Sub Board’s efforts were, of course, not to screw the students and squander their money jis Mr. Martin would have us believe. The intent is to provide an expanded array of legal services for as good a price as is feasible. If any difficulties arise in this first year of the program, it is not because they were placed there to sabotage the project. They would occur due to the fallibility of Sub Board, which would then act as quickly as possible to improve the situation. During the course of interviews for the Director of the Legal Services program, Mr. Martin stated that while he was not satisfied with the total content of the plan, he felt he could work with it to make it successful. It is unfortunate that this spirit was so shortlived. Mr. Martin now demonstrates that he will go to any lengths which might help achieve the purchased individually. demise of the program, even if it requires fabrication Sub Board was extremely careful to disjoin the and deceit. selection of the participating law firm from the task of preparing the proposed services.

They’ve been shown, they think, that the Board, the, government, and for now, the public, aren’t going to guarantee fairness to either teachers or children. Many of them see themselves as the only really organized force, at this time, fighting for quality education and decent working conditions. page’1— “You may not know it,” anoth’er teacher said, “but a big change happened with the strike!. hJext time something like this happens, we’ll be set tb open up the public’s eyes, too. Then the'city officials and your corporation heads will really have something to think about.” Closing one conversation, a science teacher advised, “I guess the apathy is pretty much everywhere, and nowadays that means UB too. But we’ve all shown at one time or another that we’ve got some fire in us, and you students, you’ve got to come out here eventually, to where you’ll have to feed your kids, and you shouldn’t stop your efforts to make sure that it’s a —R.

Adkins and a cohprt, Terry Weatherman, were nailed with the goods one day last week cigarettes in their pockets. Principal Kenneth Hightower offered the teenage rapscallions a choice of punishment. Either two swift swats with a paddle or consumption of the evidence. The boys unwittingly chose the latter. Later in the day, Adkins was sick and spitting up blood. Weatherman wasn’t far behind. Superintendent Charles Robert Allen conceded the punishment was harsh, but maintained it was necessary fo deter the almost 100 students who smoke or chew tobacco on school grounds. — The • L—% N«« . 1 Century , Theatre ■ Buffalo f E.C.C.

The only difference was that for Saturday’s split, the Bulls played two different opponents. In the opener, Buffalo bested Buffalo State in extra innings, 4,-3, but then Siena beat Buffalo 6-3 in the second game. The Bulls’ record is now 7-7. The Bulls looked as if they were going to put Buffalo State away with ease, as they took a 3-0 lead after three innings. John White’s first homerun of the season (which landed in the parking lot behind Diefendorf) in the second opened the scoring for Buffalo. With one out in the third, Buffalo’s Mike Burg singled, and Pat Raimondo walked. Then Jim Wojcik hit a grounder to Bengal firstbaseman Craig Kofod, who hobbled the ball, and his throw to second was not in time as Burg scored from third. After John Pederson struck out, Bulls designated hitter Mike Dixon singled, scoring Raimondo from second. Dave Borsuk meanwhile was pitching a shut-out for the Bulls. “He did very well for a while,” said Buffalo coach Bill Monkarsh. “But he should have had a few more runs to work with.” Buffalo’s sloppy fielding allowed the Bepgals to tie the score in the sixth. Third baseman Ed Durkin made two errors, allowing one run in, and Frank Brown then singled in two runs. Missed chance In the seventh (the final inning of regulation play), Raimondo led off with a long triple to left center. The Bengals then intentionally walked the nexttwo batters tq> load the bases. “His (the Bengals coach) judgement worked that time,” Monkarsh said. “That’s all that, counts.” With both the Infield and outfield playing in, Dixon then grounded to the third baseman who threw home for the force out. Then White lofted a short fly to left. Wojcik, on third, attempted to tag up and score, and was thrown out by a perfect throw by Frank Badolato to end Buffalo’s threat. But the Bulls were not to be denied. With one out and in the eighth pinchrunner Jim Rodriguez on first, catcher Bob Sperlazza tripled to score Rodriguez and give the Bulls the win. Monkarsh was pleased with the performance of Buffalo’s winning pitcher Rich Brooks. He relieved in the top of the seventh, and allowed a single to the first batter he faced. Brooks thenretired the next six batters he faced. Siena, coming into the game with a 6-1-1 record, proved to be a more formidable opponent, but the Bulls again hurt themselves with errors. “We weren’t relaxed mentally,” Monkarsh said. He added that many of Buffalo’s starters were freshmen, and that he would have to work with them on fundamentals, such as hitting cut-off men. Siena scored all of their runs in the first, with five singles and three Buffalo errors. Buffalo’s Mike Betz and Ron Nero shut out the Indians the rest of the way. Pederson, had three hits in the second game for Buffalo. THE BEST THINGS IN LIFE ARE FREE. . - TALMUD — - UB frisbee becomes ‘big-time on campus ’ .

Ultimate Frisbee is played by seven-person teams on a forty by seventy-yard field. No player may run with the Frisbee, so it is advanced up the field by a series of throws. Any pass that is blocked, intercepted, incomplete or thrown out of bounds goes to the opposing team. A goal is scored, when a player for the, offense catches a pass over the goal line. The pace of the game is similar to soccer of lacrosse, conditioning and stamina as well as frisbee ability playing key roles. Strategy such as zone or man-to-man defense, and long vs. short passes are very important. Experience Most of last year’s 5-5 team is back. Pacing the squad is captain Mark Schumacher, who is considered the school’s best ffisbee player. He has mastered a dozen throws, and led the team in assists for the past two years.

Sub Board Executive Director, Tom Van Nortwick feels that at present housing is not an issue, especially in by Alan Most Spectrum Staff Writer As the mainstream of University shifts functions to the Amherst campus, the demand for off-campus housing steadily increases. However, it is uncertain whether students, with their notoriously limited incomes, can find places to live in the Town of Amherst, one of the metropolitan areas most affluent suberbs. To assist students, various plans have been devised to provide housing and transportation at affordable prices. However, all plans are currently at a standstill or have been dropped. In 1964, when the University decided to locate its new campus in Amherst, plans for accomodating a student body that would reach about 40,000 were initiated. These plans were needed to allow the peaceful developement of the fast growing Amherst area to adjust to its newest element: the 1200 acre Amherst campus. One possibility was the Parcel B developement on the Amherst Campus near Lake LaSalle, currently in the planning stages by the University of Buffalo Foundation (UBF)' The original 1974 plan included 450 apartments, each having a maximum of two bedrooms. The units that could be built would require a heavy subsidy to keep rents down. Amherst. When the need does arise in the future,. Van Nortwick feels that Sub Board will be an “excellent vehicle*’ for providing student housing. A third program created to build housing in the Amherst area was the development of Audobon, a new planned community just north of the Amherst campus. It was first discussed in a study done in 1970 for the New York Urban Development Corporation (UDC). • According to the plan, about 9000 new housing units would be needed in Audobon to absorb the impact created by the University. Two-thirds of the households in the community would have incomes over $10,000 and would therefore pay full market value for housing. The remaining households would be broken down as follows: 16 percent moderate income households eligible for federally subsidized apartments; 12 percent low income households eligible for federal rent supplements and the state’s capital grant program; and 6 percent elderly tenants.Furthermore, a "campus extension” of Audobon was included that would be open for the developement of 1000 units of housing and business facilities designed specifically for students. . No room However, John Carter, UBF Corporation President, feels that at present it is.unlikely that student housing will be available at Amherst, given space constraints. Plans for Parcel B now include a motel and a large amount of •commercial and office space, which, according to Carter is “enough for us to bite off,” in light of possible parking zoning problems. But Carter said that the amount of vacant space will remain unknown until architectural plans are drawn up. Another possibility for student housing was the now-defunct Scholastic Housing Inc., a division of Sub Board 1, which operated the student co-opertive at 252 Crescent Street. It was created in response to the tight, low-quality housing market that was available to students. Furthermore, the co-op was seen as an educational to dormitory living. experience and an alternative Coop sold However, beginning in the 1975-1976 academic year, the Crescent street Co-op faced severe problems which led to its demise. Its organization broke down as housing became less of rarity for students, and as the concept of co-operative living became less appealing. This past Mcnyen urn yov'fte • UDC plans utopia Construction by private developers began in'1973 with the construction of 180 units of federally subsidized housing. The UDC, with the cooperation of the Audoboh Development Corporation, was (and still is) only responsible for the planning, design, and preparation of the land. As land became available for construction, builders constructed units, for sale or rent, following UDC’s guidelines. Some of these guidelines included features such as building houses in clusters with the preservation of open spaces and woods, recreational facilities, community centers, and paved pathways for bicycling and recreation. In shtntvit was supposed to be a complete community that would inclbde students. By the fall of 1974, the 180 rental units were beginning to become occupied, with all apartments federally subisidzed. Thus, rents varied from about $172, for* one bedroom to $232 for 4 bedroom apartments, including utilities. Maximum income levels were placed on the occupants of the dwellings by HUD; no more than $11,000 for the three person household, and no more than $12,300 for a four person household. However, most students are still dependents of their parents, and since the combined income of the parents would likely exceed these limits, the students are virtually barred from occupancy.

In 19,75, the financial credibility of the UDC' collapsed partly due to the worsening economic conditions of New York State. Development for Audobon, as well as the Amherst Campus, slowed down greatly. Only recently have developers begun showing an interest again, and 128 unsubsidzed apartments will be on the market in the spring. But the construction of additional subsidized units must proceed slowly, as not to upset the Town of Amherst. The most likely alternative left for the student who wishes to live near the Amherst campus is housing that is generally higher in cost than that found near the Main Street campus.(A 1974 survey of housing complexes, in Amherst found that rents averaged approximately S180 for one bedroom apartments, $230 for two bedrooms, and $310 for three bedrooms. Approximately 10% of the units were occupied by students.) In addition, because the housing is widely scattered and the proposed rapid transit system has now become a light rail system that will terminate at Main and Bailey, a car is essential. This immediately excluded many students from the available housing market. Furthermore, this picture is complicated by the Town of Amherst’s “Mona Drive Amendment” to its building code. Scheduled to go into effect this past February 2, it originally prohibited more than two unrelated lodgers to live in the same unit. But on February 9, the amendment was changed, redefining a family as three Unrelated persons, according to Joseph Gidzinski, head of Amherst s Department of Building Inspection. These unrelated people could not then accomodate any additional lodgers. Gidzinski said his office would act only if there was a complaint. As of yet, there have been only a few instances of violations. The housing difficulties that will occur in the future cannot be predicted at the present time. It is uncertain as to what kind of ,a demand the Amherst Campus will place on the Town of Amherst, given the current monetary restraints. As the situation exists now, however, plans for economical off-campus housing geared toward students is virtually non-existent.

I $ ft jlh rJ BO �SUNY at Geneseo holds a summer stuttering clinic by Bob McCrone Spectrum Staff Writer Harold Starbuck faces the same problem every summer: running a clinic to help people who have an illness for which there is no cure. The illness is stuttering, a problem whose cause is only speculative, and whose cure is nonexistent. Even the question, “What is a stutter?” causes Starbuck to laugh and answer, “Who knows?” For the more than thirty people who attend his stutter clinic each summer at the State University of New York at Geneseo, a stutter can be a speech impediment which is the cause for the loss of a job, low grades in school, the inability to function socially, or the frustration of not being able to express oneself orally. The stutterers do not, however, expect to,leave the clinic speaking with the ease and fluency of a non-stutterer. “We help them to, speak at a rate, in which they are comfortable,’,’ explains Starbuck. “We don’t alter the speech. We want them to speak in their pwn way; only the stutter is missing.” • The absence of the stutter does not mean the person is cured. “A stutterer is always subject to regression and relapses,” says Starbuck, a stutterer himself, .who speaks in a slow deliberate manner. He pauses often, yet an audible groping for words, which is normally assumed to be the sign of the stutterer, is not present. Starbuck explains that their first goal is to desensitize tfte person to the act of stuttering. “We do this so that they aren’t emotionally reacting to their stuttering. We then try to help them find where and how their stutter is happening and how to correct the errors they have analyzed.” The six-week session gives the 32 men and women, ranging in ages from 12-54, seven hours of therapy on weekdays and four hours on Saturdays. A combination of group activities, individual attention and self-improvement sessions is used. Starbuck and the five speech therapists who assist him can boast that every person who has attended their clinic since its conception in 1960 has left speaking in a more fluent manner. This past summer was no exception. Starbuck says that everyone left the clinic speaking well. _ UB clinic A somewhat less intensive stutter clinic is held here through the Communicative Disorders arid Sciences Department (CDS). It meets once a week on the Ridge JLea Campus. Mary Mann, chairman- of the CDS department, defines her goals much the same as Starbuck. “We acquaint the individual to the nature of what he’s doing and help him gain control.” Residents of the Ellicott session” with administration and staff representatives in Richmond cafeteria last Wednesday. Associate Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, as well as officials from Food Service, Custodial Services, Housing, Financial Aid, Campus Security, the Bookstore, Admissions and Records, and Linen Service were there to answer questions. This was the second such meeting of the semester. Lorenzetti, who organizes the sessions, feels they provide students with an excellent opportunity to discuss a wide range of subjects, from parking tickets to maintaining the current four-credit system. Ati IRC representative complained that Food Service wants to raise the admission charge at the Wilkeson Pub from $.50 to $ 1 .00 when IRC co-sponsors events with Food Service there in the future. Not only would a dollar admission be “too high” but Food Service would also profit from any liquor sold, he added. Food Service Director Donald Hosie said he has no intention of monopolizing the pub, and that h e w o u 1 d meet with representatives of ‘concerned groups to resolve any problems. No holiday One student usked why the University did not declare Yom Kippur an official holiday, explaining that Yom Kippur is the holiest of all the Jewish holidays. Lorenzetti said the University is required to hold classes for a specified number of days to fill academic requirements. The Student Association (SA) recommended that the Calendar B-break 10-4 Starbuck cites an example of a former “He was a policeman,” relates Starbuck, “who had to operate the police radio and stuttered like hell.” He then attended the stutter clinic and wi.thin three or four years he became chief of police. pupil. This is just one example, however, and Mann admits, “It is very hard to do follow-up studies.” — Vico College Lorenzetti hears complaints Complex were invited to a “gripe continued.

New York State law cushions students from academic repercussions which might arise from missing classes on religious holidays at the University. Eric Bukatman, director of the JSU Public Relations Committee, pointed out that Buffalo is the only University Center in the SUNY system to hold classes on Yom Kippur. This year classes did not interfere with Rosh Hashanah as the holiday fell on a Saturday. Dremuk, when queried On this subject related the following information regarding the calendars of the other three University centers, Binghamton and Albany, by beginning their fall semesters earlier are able to close on Yom Kippur and Rosh Hashanah and still have the number of legally required instructional days. DremUk was unable to explain why Stony Brook which begins later than Buffalo is still able to close on Yom Kippur. approximately , the Jewish year. The decision to hold classes was made last spring by the members of the Calendar Committee, which each year is responsible for the formation of the upcoming year’s calendar. The Committee is composed of faculty, administrators and students, all appointed by President Robert Ketter. Chairman Richard Dremuk stressed in an interview that the University policy is such that “no religious holidays are recognized in the University calendar.” The Christmas-New York vacation, which might be construed as a religious holiday, is actually mandated by SUNY. Central guidelines, he indicated. These guidelines state that the fall semester Shall end no later than December 22. Dremuk said the rationale behind the no religious holiday policy is that “there are no equitable criteria” for determining on which holidays the University should close. In answer to the JSU’s contention that the large number of "Jews at the University requires the cancelling of classes on these holidays, he said the Calendar Committee argument found the “numbers” Proposal rejected Student Association (SA) President Steven' Schyvartz, member of the Calendar Committee last year, said the Committee flatly rejected his proposal to close the Oniversity on Yom Kippur. Schwartz expressed his dissatisfaction, indicating . that student representation “is really a waste. The minutes are made up before you walk in the door,” he added. Act 5, Section 244a of the New York State Education Law states; “Any student in an institution of higher education who is unable because of- inadequate. “You can’t use it as a criteria,” he said. He questioned where the line ought to be drawn. “At what point? One percent? Two percent? Ten percent? Sixty percent?” . . Complete disgrace The Legal Rights and Public Relations Committees of the JSU are working to rectify what they see as a “complete disgrace.” It is inexcusable that classes are held on the “holiest days of the Jewish year” in a religious beliefs, . to attend classes on a or'days. shall, because of such absence on the particular day or days, be excused from any examination or study particular day or work requirements.” It further requires that make-up exams be given. “Students have traditionally been inadequately informed of their rights in this matter said Garfield, adding, “Professors hold you responsible for classwork anyway.” Dremuk advised students to report violations of this law to the administration. “If actual instances can be documented, then action can be taken,” he stated, adding that since he has been chairperson “there has never been an instance actually brought forward.” ” Methods of inquiry TO reassure students who might otherwise remain silent for fear of academic reprisal, Dremuk explained that there are methods of inquiry which would ensure that the student is not penalized for his or her actions. The JSU remains Opposed to the present arrangement even . with the present safeguards. Even if notes and make-up exams were suitable replacements for missed lectures, which the JSU says are not, spokespeople for the organization repeatedly stressed what they consider to be dividing issue: the real the administration’s lack of respect for the needs of the Jewish community. Dremuk said last year’s meetings were devoid of major problems. The calendar was put together with virtually “no heat,” he said. • The JSU is intent on fighting the administration on this issue and has devised a protest program which includes leaflets, organizational meetings with the Calendar Committee, and advertisements in The , The Jewish Student Union (JSU) is protesting the standing administration policy of holding classes on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, the highest holidays of Spectrum. Clifford strongly emphasized the benefits of pressure, organization and unity. For the first time in many years, Passover and Easter will coincide with the spring vacation. In order for this to be the case in future years, the two holidays must fall within a week of each other, with at least four weeks remaining in the semester after the vacation. In all other cases, the standard mid-semester recess will be in effect.

Counselors responding to increased student demands Responding to the heavy student demand for guidance on applications for graduate schools and jobs, the University Office of Placement and Career Guidance has set up a seminar program to coach students on filling out applications, writing resumes and preparing for interviews. E. J. Martel, director of health and Career Planning, said, “Many students have the same questions, and that’s why we have gone to the seminars.” There will be six sessions throughout October and November. The first seminar, who’s subject will be applications and resumes, is scheduled for October 6. All seminar programs will be announced in The Spectrum. The seminars are only one facet of Guidance Center services. Larry R.

Prior placement students receive information about respective companies, and what jobs are available According to Drake, students have found the interviews worthwhile. Another of Drake’s duties is to contact companies on a quarterly basis to explore job openings. The Guidance office issues a weekly bulletin listing job openings in all fields. The placement center also is involved in researching information relevant to job hunting graduates. By next spring a package including salaries, number of people hired, and location of each company will be compiled. This package will state to state report, projecting job also openings through 1980. Schools most suited Graduate School and Pre-Law advisement are also the responsibility of the Placement center. Jerome Fink, in charge of Pre-Law advisement, explained that his job is to help students find schools for which they are most suited. Each year a survey is sent to graduates attending law school, asking for their grade-point average (GPA), LSAT scores and other pertinent data. Students are permitted to Jeaf through these surveys in order to get an idea minimum admission criteria required for different schools. Arthur W. Burke, director of Social Services and Graduate School advisement, indicated that he and Fink do not tell students where to apply, but only assist students in the application process and recommend appropriate programs of study.

At nineteen, you want to discover where you are going. At thirty, you try and determine just where you have been. The day I decided to enroll in the university’s evening division, I sensed I was embarking on a long and exciting voyage. What I didn’t realize was the many areas of uncharted turbulence which lay ahead. Or that there would be moments when it would be a pleasure cruise and still others when it would become a tour or duty. Arriving bright-eyed and breathless on campus to register, I came to the immediate realization that I didn’t know where Admissions , and Records was located. I stopped a young, blue-jeaned student (suddenly conscious that my once-though-of-as-chic polyester pantsuit stood out like the proverbial sore thumb among all the blue jeans and tee shirts) who pointed out a low-slung brick building to my right. Happily I trudged off but at A&R I wasjrrqniptly informed that I would have to be processed by the Division of Continuing Education. “Where's that?” 1 whispered anxiously. I wandered among the maze of buildings, as if in a Borges labyrinth, finally stuipbling into the right office. “Are you matriculated or non-matriculated,” snapped the receptionist. “Actually,” 1 gasped, “I’m lost.” Where to turn?

The program was sponsored by the Black Student Union (BSU) and featured the film version of Greenlee’s premiere work. Spook Who Sat by the Door. Spook was written in 1966 on a Greek island where Greenlee was sojourning at the time. The subsequent movie version, directed by Ivan Dixon, was released in 1973 by an independent film corporation headed by Dixon and Greenlee. The corporation was unique in that it depended heavily upon support and financial assistance from the black community. “We went into the community and raised over $500,000 to cover production costs. Greenlee remarked. The author spoke briefly about his film and then plunged into a history of black film making. “As quiet as it was kept.” Greenlee stated, “there was in fact a viable black film industry in the ’30s and '40s arid that doesn’t mean just one or two production companies but closer to a dozen throughout the period.

The Spectrum Monday, 4 October 1976 . �Carter visits Buffalo, attacks unemployment Democratic presidential candidate Jimmy Carter stopped off in Buffalo last Thursday to try to improve his standing with the blue collar workers of Erie County and Western New York. Carter made two speeches during,his brief stay, one at Buffalo International Airport and the. other at the soon to be phased bill Western Electric plapt in the Riverside'section of Buffalo. The general tone of both of Carter’s speeches centered on unemployment. His attack on the increase in unemployment since President Gerald Ford took office reached a soft spot in the hearts of many kuffalonians who are fed up with the 15 percent unemployment rate in this part of the country. i Carter consistently attacked Ford’s vetoes of job-providing bills, explaining, “Ford has vetoed 2'million jobs since he took office. That touches the American people’s hearts not just their pocketbooks.” Small but satisfied Carter was warmly received at both locations, but the crowds were not large perhaps three hundred at the airport and one thousand at the factory sije. In fact, Jim Fagan of WKBW radio said he believed the crowds were the smallest for a Democratic Presidential candidate since the I950’s. Carter looked drawn on the podium as he called for a,change from a Republican party which has “sold us a bill of good too many times.” The effects of eighteen months of non-stop campaigning have apparently taken their toll on the former Goergia governor. But despite the rigorous schedule which took Carter to Boston and Portland, Maine after leaving Buffalo, Carter has not lost the easy-going, plain talk style that earned him the Democratic nomination, last July. After attacking Ford’s, increases of nearly 700 percent in unemployment benefits, Carter made his big pitch to the people, asking, “What worries me is, ‘what happens to the family’?” - Buffalo zoo Animal keeper findsfelines fun, furry, and fascinating by Pam Jenson Spectrum Staff Writer “Something tells me it's all happening at the zoo. Simon and Garfunkle ” — On a bright, sunny day'(rare as it may be in Buffalo), what better place to be than the Buffalo Zoological Gardens, or, in common vernacular, the Zoo? Constantine Chuchla is a relief animal keeper, having been stationed in every part of the zoo at one time or another. His favorite spot in the zoo is Feline House. He used to work in the Bird House quite often, but said, “You can’t relate to birds very well." He said that the are sensitive creatures, although he warned that regardless of how friendly and sensitive the felines may seem, “the number one rule is constant caution.” Lions and tigers are very mOody, always subject to quick changes • in ; temperament. Roaring felines The big cats are roaring as Connie enters the Feline House at 8:30 a.m. The zoo won’t open to the public for another hour and a half, but the animals have been up since they began hearing the hustle and bustle of traffic and employees arriving. Each cat has two cages, one outdoors and one indoors, separated by a little door. The first thing Connie does is check the locks on all the outside cages, making sure they haven’t been tampered with overnight. Next, he opens all the doors by means of a lever, permitting the beasts to go outdoors for some fresh air. If it’s a chilly day, some of the cats, particularly tropical ones such as jaguars and leopards, require a little coaxing from Connie before they go out into the cold air. As they pass through the door, Connie He never enters the cage prior shuts it behind to the beast’s exit. Some of the male and female cats of the same species are allowed to live in adjoining cages. Since most of the females have a contraceptive implanted in them annually, they enjoy “visitation privileges.” The contraceptive is necessary due to an abundance of felines, particularly lions, in the United States’ zoos, explained Connie. If allowed to, lions breed a litter varying from two to four cubs every year. In the wild there is almost an eighty percent infant mortality rate, but under zoo conditions, a cub rarely dies. Clean cats When the twelve cats have all exited, Connie begins the cleaning of their indoor cages. This isn’t too difficult a task since, unlike monkeys, the felines are very clean animals. He begins by sweeping out all the cages. Then he tackles each one individually, hosing it down and scrubbing the floor and walls with disinfectant. While Connie cleans the indoor cages, the cats pace back and forth almost continuously between the four walls of their outdoor ones. He said that the animals have developed, this nervous impulse under zoo conditions to release their penf-up energy. In the wild, they would have much more diverse activities to keep them occupied and their muscles working: running, hunting for food and so on. He said that if these cats were to be freed into their natural habitat after spending time in a zoo, they'would probably die of starvation. Although the animals do lose much of their efficiency, they still manage to maintain some skills and agility. “If they are such beautiful animals in captivity, they must be really amazing in the wild,” said Connie. Lav key work Cleaning the twelve cages takes up about two hours of Connie’s morning. When the' cages are spotless, he goes outside to check on the cats. There are no specific chores to be done at this time. The rest of the morning is spent answering the public’s questions and doing some reading on animals. “Working here is very low key and low pressure,” stated Connie. At 1:30 p.m. the animals are let back into the building to prepare for their daily meal. Dinner is only served once a day in the Feline House with Tuesday as a day of fast. In the wild, big cats don’t eat every day and the zoo attempts to simulate this natural condition. The felines have no variety in' their menu. Depending on their body weight, each cat receives from 3 '/i to 4 pounds of horsemeat, processed by a packing company in Nebraska. One diabetic spotted leopard.gets a dash of Orinase in his meal. After eating, the animals become lethargic and lie down while Connie cleans the outdoor cages and attends to whatever requires his attention. The most important thing is to observe the animals, looking for changes in their mood or habits. Wildife B.S Two years ago, Connie received a BS in Wildlite Biology from the University of Wyoming. Since then, he’s been studying to obtain his masters degree, taking night school courses at Buffalo State in ethology (animal behavior). Why is a man with such an education employed to scrub cages and dish out horsemeat imported from Nebraska to animals? Jobs in his field of study are extremely scarce, especially for those who lack a masters degree or more. Pay is low and conditions in the 101-year old zoo are not the most modern, but Connie thinks he’s been very fortunate to secure this job as an animal keeper. Why? “It’s all worth the satisfaction of working with animals,” he says. Moynihan, LaFalce noted Beside trying to score some points of his own, Carter also lauded the efforts of Democratic Senatorial candidate Daniel Patrick Moynihan, especially in regard to his work in writing the Democratic platform plank on welfare. He also urged the audience to support their congressional candidates, particularly John LaFalce. Joseph Crangle, Erie County Democratic leader seized the opportunity of Carter’s visit to patch up his relationship with the party’s standafd bearer. Crangle had been a staunch supporter of Hubert Humphrey during the primary season, arid Carter’s nomination cost him some political points. Local union leader George Wessel also got into the act by pledging the support of the United Auto Workers and the AFL-CIO chapters in Western New York. He also announced the creation of a new “labor committee” which will work expressly for the election of Moynihan and Carter-Mondale. Wessel said that the committee would not be a “paper organization.” He added, “There is no way on God’s earth that we could put up with a victory by Ford.” Carter chews, chats The .only time Carter answered questions during his stay here was breakfasting at the Chew and Chat Drive In at 2278 Kenmore, across the street from the Western Electric factory. Although only members of Carter’s traveling press troop were allowed in, his words were transmitted, to the local press outside. Most of his conversation centered around how the recession has affected his hometown of Plains, Georgia, and on how the welfare system in America might be improved. t Carter told' the restaurant press that because of the recession, many of the mobile home factories in Georgia were forced to lay off a substantial number of workers. (Georgia is number one in the country in mobile home fabrication.) He likened the situation in Georgia to the problem of unemployment in the Buffalo area and again pledged himself to reducing unemployment to levels of the mid 1960 s. iHl Century Theatre ■ The N«w 1 ■ *511 MainBuffalo I , ou ca r At the zoo E.C.C.

My roommate went in to pick up his’I.D. and at the same time paid my ten dollars. Upon asking for my I.D. he was told it was in Ellicott. Fine! So I went to pick up my l.D. and I was told it was at Main Street. “We’re sorry to inconvenience you, it will be here tomorrow, and when it arrives we will give you a call.” Next day comes around and 1 get no phone call. Once again I go to their office at Richmond Quad and ask for my I.D. It’s there, but it’s not lamenated. I freak out! So, Stuart Bison tries to help me out,.

The president, Howie Shapiro was the only one' there. So, he reaches into the magic cigar box and there it is along with the others, unlamenated. I blew up: this was too much for my head to handle. Howie tells me that he will take care of it right away and have it lamenated in an hour. Don’t lose all faith in this organization, there is at least one decent person that keeps his word. Sure enough, my l.D. was lamenated. It only took four weeks. How can we trust these people to keep their word as members of.the SUNYAB political system, if they are so irresponsible now?

I say irresponsible for this reason: Students are fighting daily to deny the Administration’s “right” to control our mandatory fee expenditures. Bill Martin, a person I formerly viewed as pro-student, ran to the Administration and acknowledged their “right” to review our programs. Bill also suggested that the program be halted by the Administration, further reinforcing that “right.” Even if Mr. Martin acted in good faith in opposing this program, he should have known better than to run to “Big Daddy”. Students have created mechanisms for in-house input, and these mechanisms should have been used. Mr. Martin, at the Sub-Board hearings, voiced his objections to the new program. Most were answered, and some, in fact, were valid.

I have a few questions of my own to ask: 1: When the five course level is reinstated, which textbook company will be the first to lower its prices so that the costs of textbooks don’t rise beyond students’ reach? 2: Nobody has produced any evidence to showthat a minimum amount of faculty contact is necessary for a good education. Its been saicj, again and again that not all learning takes place in the classroom! Students today are involved in all sorts of extracurricular activities, most of which are community-oriented and educational. We know that all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, but if the five course load was adopted, many students would be, forced to cut down on their social activities for additional study'time. 3: From talking to people I got the impression that before 1968 there was in addition to the five course load, a very restrictive atmosphere at U.B. Students were forced to live in the dorms, keep curfew' hours, and males had to wear shirts and ties to class! Girls were not allowed in boys’ dorms and vice versa. These restrictions, along with the five course load, Were swept away ip the wave of student protest. This wave died after Kent State and it seems to me that since there hasn’t been one serious incident of student violence in six years, the Adminstration finds it safe to ignore student needs. Students, it is time to march on Hayes Hall and demand continuation of the four course load! BUT IF I WERE PRESIPEKT * — Martin Celnick Non-sexist plea right To the Editors.

Mr. Finklestein correctly assesses the 'great financial problems facing student-run newspapers and studnet associations.

Editors of student, newspaper have a duty and responsibility that far exceeds the editors and publishers of commercial publications.

Also, they’re having a sale on white socks at Two-Guys this weekend. Dan McKloud During the recent elections for student officers, a referendum to solicit student opinion on the importance of Social Science College was held. The results, far from being inconclusive, showed that apporximately 85% of those students who had any opinion at all on this matter cast their vote in support of the reinstatement of Social Science College. As former student members of the college, we feel that this vote is a clear indication of students desire for alternative, radical, and relevant courses to supplement the otherwise stale offerings of the University departments. We, as students, deplore the Administration’s decision on the fate of Social Science College and are also concerned that this issue be kept alive. We feel that the procedure in which the college was eliminated was totally undemocratic and politically motivated. Ketter’s acceptance of the, chartering committee’s minority report is a clear indication of the administrations intentions to stifle the quality of progressive education and the democratic process which is its base. Preaching of Powell To the Editor. Much controversy in sociology centers around the question of the necessity for sociology to be relevant to the concerns of people in everyday life. It is absolutely necessary that sociologists maintain a position of neutrality in their work. Remember, sociology is a science, and science deals with facts — with what is, and not with what one thinks ought to be. In his teaching of sociology, I suggest that Mr. Powell realize his lectures should not become sermons, preaching his own political convictions. This does not mean that Mr. Powell should detach himself from activity and personal commitment to controversial issues of today, in fact, such involvement can only stimulate sociological interest and insight. But when it comes to the teaching of basic sociology, all personal convictions must become only a part of the wh >le realm of the science of sociology, where students learn all the different arguments of, for example, faults in the American political system, or problems of social control, and then use these basics to develop their own convictions, not merely those of an over-influential From its conception, the history of Social Science College has been one of the struggle of concerned students in unity to democratically, through their collective input, control the direction of their education. The college qualitative gain that was a direct result of the efforts of the united university community. The administrations reaction to this advance, the revocation of Social Science College’s charter, negates not only the college itself, but. also further jeopardizes academic freedom and student participation in deciding university policy." The issue as it now stands is not dead. Since the removal of Social Science College the cutting edge of the administration has been brought closer to all progressively minded sectors of the university; witness the harassment of Dr. Ed Powell and the firing of progressive instructors Grabner and Goodenow. (Gene Grabner himself was a former faculty, member of Social Science College.) This blatant attempt at thought control on this campus absolutely necessitates an organized struggle to protect our civil and academic rights. The referendum has concretely established a constituency of student support of Social Science College. If you are a part of this constituency you must realize that the reinstatement of the college involves an organized and unified struggle. Your convictions as expressed by your vote has strengthened our commitment to keep up the struggle. An information table will be set up in Norton beginning Tuesday, Oct. 5, to help organize our fight.

Each plot is the object of attachment and personal concern for some family. What lies beyond is — ' else. Let me,explain. When I was 18, I worked as a lifeguard at a summer camp for Boy Scouts. My boss, the director of the waterfront, was regarded by me and everyone else at the camp as unusual. His appearance, as well as his attitudes and way of life, flew in the face of the authoritarianism and latent militarism of the Boy Scout concept. Bob was the first “hippie” any of us had ever met. The camp was located in the mountains and the evenings were especially peaceful. After finishing our someone else’s business. work for the day, Bob and I would sit by the shore As we walked, we saw few people. In the middle of the lake and talk.

The conference will consist of our workshops and a luncheon, followed by a general disucssion. Chairwoman Cookie Ehrenreich said that the purpose of the conference is to “attempt to elicit a response from the public and hopefully to carry through with action within the community directed toward citizen education and involvement.” The four morning workshops will run concurrently. Nanette Demb'itz, whom Ehrenreich described as being one of the leading family court judges in the country, will conduct a workshop on Family Court. A workshop on “Selection of Judges” will be led by Frank Offerman. Herman Schwartz of the Buffalo Law School will moderate a workshop on the subject of bail, the fourth workshop, “Victimless Crimes,’’ will be conducted by Betty Friedman of Cornell University. An informal luncheon will follow, and the conference will end with a summary and discussion led by the four workshop moderators. Ehrenreich said that she “would like to encourage students to come because the people are really top-notch.” She added that this conference is the first of ten to be held across the living.

Now, at home soccer'games, 1 Rotary imagine I still hear the cheers echoing back and forth, and I wonder if a Buffalo sporting will ever be like that again. There are some people on campus who remember those days. Ed Muto. director of Men’s Intercollegiate Athletics, is one. And looking at the crowds at Buffalo’s recent home games, he wanted to know if The Spectrum couldn’t do something to help boost attendance. For example, he wanted to know why The Spectrum couldn’t print articles that previewed fans, instead of only home events, to try to attract reporting on what had already occurred. Why couldn’t we write a story saying that tomorrow the baseball team plays Big Four opponent Niagara).and that Buffalo has been hitting at a .284 pace this-year, and that Niagara beat the Bulls earlier this year 8-7, and that last week Buffalo beat Maine 1 -0 and that the Maine is one of the best, baseball teams in the games? and see come on down country and Policy change The truth is The Spectrum will be doing that at 7 out and say, “go Bmes in the future.

(Off we’ll be doing more down and see the games. They start at 1 p.m.) Muto, along with Bullpen Editor Larry Amoros, Sports Information Director Dick Baldwin and this writer kicked around other ideas tor attracting Ians, such as holding a half-court shooting contest at basketball games, arid a similar shooting contest at hockey games, when a piece ol wood would covet most of the, goal to increase the difficulty. There would be prizes for the winner if these suggestions ever became realities. Also, volleyball coach Peter Weinreich plans to hold free volleyball clinics before each home game to attract’spectators The big problem, Muto realized, was that many students had the wrong attitude about Buffalo-sports that our teams aren’t wotth watching simply because they are from Buffalo and therefore couldn’t be good. Last year, Buffalo produced many fine athletes, including the nation’s leading rebounder in basketball and the nation s leading batter, and both were a pleasure to watch. I know that I’d rather be watching the Bulls than worrying about how to integrate an arctangent, or something like that. For some reason, all our teams seem to play better at home, and all ot them play exciting games. Our teams definitely are worth watching. Muto hoped that with The Spectrum's and Bullpen's help, attendance will increase. 1 certainly hope he’s right. All he has to do now, is have a little chat with the weatherman. - • * * * * Today’s subjects include: past Phillies triumphs, Bobby Thompson’s moment of glory and a real toughie about this University’s coaching staff.

With the bases still loaded, Mike Dixon hit a routine fly ball to left fielder Gary Pieper who dropped it for a two base error, allowing two runs to score. After Phil Ganci walked, Ed Durkin singled bringing Dixon and Ganci home. Nine men came to the plate in that inning as the Bulls went ahead by a score of 7 to 4.

Page nine �were Budget problem Buffalo varsity fencing demoted to club status ‘ ’ by Susan Shachter Spectrum Staff Writer Prior to the 1976 fall semester, the Buffalo fencing team had varsity status, enabling it to compete against other university teams. This year the fencing team has been demoted to a club status. For the members of the fencing club the situation is crucial, because without varsity status they are unable to enter into nationwide competition. Last spring there was a general cut in state budget funding, and one of the departments affected by the cutback was the department. athletic After an assessment of the situation it was decided that the fencing, track and cross country teams were to be shifted from varsity status to club status. (Cross country has since been, returned, to varsity status.) By doing this, travel would be limited to the nearby vicinity and expenses would be minimal. The fencers’ problems began when Jules Goldstein, who had coached the fencing team since its beginning, resigned in 1974. However, student interest in the sport remained alive. A part-time fencing coach, Jim Marchant, was hired and funded by a percentage of student fees that was allocated to the athletic department by the Student Association (SA). The team ran smoothly for years competing on a Division I level, but suddenly the teams’ dreams of a glorious future were destroyed. Having been reduced from a budget of $4500 to a budget of $1000, varsity standing denied, and a cancellation of scheduled meets, the fencing club was left dangling. No money Muto, Ed director of Men’s Athletics, explained the reasons for the decision, the most important being inadequate finances. Although a percentage of student fees was still available to the athletic department, because of state cutbacks it had to be widely spread. Membership in the fencing club had declined in recent years and meets Intercollegiate poorly attended. Other sports more enthusiastic response from the student body, and so fencing was only received a given club, status. Assistant coach Tom Bremer viewed the situation from a different perspective.. He felt that the fencing team had been the largest wronged. This year turnout of people since 1966, and there were club members who had been training for the past four years and eagerly awaited a chance to participate in the nationals this season. Bremer felt it was unfair to deprive them of this opportunity and further to hurt all team members who could gain experience from competing against strong teams. Without varsity status the better teams would not want to fence them, and they would have to rely on Goldstein’s connections for possible meets. Goldstein was reinstated after agreeing to coach the team for free. His love for fencing prompted him to take the position in order to guarantee its survival. Too late to change Bremer realizes that fencing would not win a popularity contest, but he maintains that there are people who love it and are dedicated to the sport. After concurring with Goldstein, Bremer stated that their main concern was the reinstatement of varsity status and not an immediate return of funds. Goldstein had even agreed to operate at the present financial level as long as they could once again be a varsity team, The decision to change fencing from club status had been made during the spring and was now irreversible. Meets had been cancelled, and to once again change- this position would endanger the credibility of the athletic department as a whole. Dennis Delia, chairman of the Student Athletic Review Board, empathized with the way the fencing club felt. He said that if Goldstein worked together with the athletic administration, contacting the proper authorities, there was a possibility that the fencing club would be able to send representatives to the nationals to fight on an individual basis. That way those students who had been training for the past four years would not be disappointed. Delia repeated that this year’s decision was irreversible but that next year he would do everything in his power to restore the team to varsity status. “If they continue to do as well as they’re doing now, they should be a team next year,” Delia concluded. varsity to * * * * * Goldstein invites anyone to come down to Clark Hall (Tuesdays and Thursdays, 7-9 p.m. but get there a little before 7 because the gym is locked then) to join the team.

The game, which was marred by frequent penalties, fights and ejections, saw the lead exchange hands three times before tlje eventual overtime deadlock.. Although not dominating the play, the Bulls took advantage of lapses in the Fredonia defense to post a 3 goal lead in the first half. Fifteen minutes into the game, Mark Bachman squeezed between two defenders, and put the ball into the right hand corner for the initial Buffalo score. At this point; the tempo of the Spectrum game picked up, along with the roughness, as short-tempered players from both teams engaged in brief altercations and pushing matches after the whistel. As the play opened up, scoring chances for both teams care more rapidly. Only minutes after a Fredonia forward hit the cross bar, Buffalo came back and left wing George Daddaria was tripped on a breakaway inside the 18 yard line. Brian Van Flatten converted the resulting penalty shot for a 2—0 lead. Spectacular play Despite being down by two goals, Fredonia continued to press the attack. Bulls’ goalie Bill Bleason, playing with an injured hand, stymied several scoring attempts on his knees with point blank saves. Van Hat ten, Perhaps the most spectacular penalty shot.

Monday, 4 October 1976 New golfers very promising The golf Bulls played matches on two consecutive days last week and the results were mixed. Buffalo dropped a close decision to Niagara 429-436 on Wednesday, , but then they drubbed Fredonia the next day 305-345. Buffalo is now 3-5 for the year. In both matches, Buffalo was led by freshman Mark Davis, who made his debut against Niagara. His 82 tied teammate Mike Hirsch’s score against the Purple Eagles, and his 72 against Fredonia was the team’s best individual result so far this year. Coach Bill Dando called Davis’ play- “a great surprise,” and noted that Davis shot consistently with a 36 on both the front and back nines. Dando was also pleased with the play of two other freshmen: Mark Schwass, who just joined the squad, and shot an 81 against Fredonia, and Perry Novak, who shot a 78, also against Fredonia. “Now I’ve got three freshmen out of a squad of five,” Dando said. “It’s very promising.” Fours and Sixes Earlier this year, Buffalo had finished ahead of Niagara in the Brook Lea Invitational Tournament in Rochester. Dando explained that Niagara came out on top last week because at the Tournament, only Buffalo top four golfpwwmre competing. “Our top four are than their top four.

Goodenow, who has taught of University Association Professionals (AAUP), United here for six years, felt the University Professionals (UUP), administration is establishing a Graduate Student Association management privilege, somewhat Graduate (GSA), Student along the lines of the Nixonian Executive Privilege. “The Employees Union (GSEU), and the faculty members of the traditional right of peer review has usurped by the of Social been Department along administration, with Foundations. violations of faculty seniority rights,’’ he added.

He explained that this attack was not justified by relevant data, their department being one of the most productive of its kind in the nation. Grabiner felt that the American university tradition and principle of peer group review has been eroded, as in this case, where professors both had been contract fecommended for renewal. “Collegiality,” the practice of faculty cleaning their own house; with respect to University procedure, has been cast away, he felt. Grabiner remarked that facuRy democracy and academic freedom are affected under these Traditional circumstances. departmental autonomy has also been violated because one’s own peers and students are usually judge most to qualified performance, he said. In ,this the administration instance, reversed the department faculty judgement. Grabiner was the only member of the now defunct Social Sciences College whose contract came up for renewal this year. He has also been an ardent supporter of Womens Studies College. UUP President Charles Fall termed the firings an arbitrary and capricious action taken by the administration over the endorsement of both department and division. Additionally, he felt the President’s action meant that term contracts with faculty need not be extended, and there is no continued implication of employment after the specified time period. Union position The'UUP position on dismissal says that when an instructor is hired by the University, the only basis for dismissal is incompetence, as opposed to arbitrary terminations based only on completion of a term contract. must be Incompetence demonstrated to fellow faculty and proven beyond all reasonable doubt". The dispute concerns a “due regarding process” procedure contracts with untenured faculty. This varies significantly from guarantees professors. afforded tenured In the first case, the issue is protection of academic freedom through hearings with specific criteria (for competence) in the firing of faculty. The second case, the more absolute safeguard of life tenure, requires “gross negligence” of duties and the like, for contract termination. UUP plans to take every step in their power to see that these every individuals receive due them. consideration According to Fall, when the issue Was discussed with the it was administration, stonewalled, in the sense that they maintained their steadfastly to position with regard non-renewal of term contracts, without apparent efforts toward explanation and conciliation. The faculty of the Department of Social Foundations passed a resolution on September 17 supporting their colleagues and bringing the matter to the attention of the Faculty of Educational Studies, as well as the entire University faculty. The GSA and GSEU circulated a joint petition among their members calling for support of Gradiner and Goodenow.

I can’t even study (party) in my own room . . green mold is growing rapidly in the popcorn popper. Suitable matches Obviously, a lot depends on how much roommates have in common. Many private colleges send out questionnaires so that they may make suitable matches. Why not here? “It’s plausible,” said associate director of Housing Cliff Wilson. “We did it some years ago but found that it didn’t have success much more than random roommates. This year, we are establishing a committee with Inter-Residence Council (IRC) which will take a look at our system of room assignment.” Wilson said he didn’t know exactly why four and six-person rooms were built. “There was some talk about the designers believing that students like to live in large groups,” he explained. “Qf course we know that four< people in one room is too many from a sociological point of view.” Double rooms receive the most requests, followed by triples, he continued. Room requests from returning students get priority, so usually freshmen and transfers are assigned to quads. One junior with three freshmen is not an uncommon result. “It’s cramping my style,” says one such junior. “They're still into water fights and getting drunk at the Pub. I’m never alone in a quiet room." . Spectrum . Six people living in one room. Four in the next. It’s a way of life at the Joseph Ellicott Complex On the Amherst campus. “It’s like one big family,” says a freshman living in a sextuple in Fargo Quadrangle. “We didn’t even know each other before we moved in but we get along great. Three of the guys had the chance to move out into a triple and decided to stay here.” Ellicott has only 17 six-person rooms, but 1400 of its residents (almost half) live in four-person rooms, more affectionately known as “quads.” Psychologist David Viscott, author of the highly acclaimed How to Live with Another Person, would probably regard students who successfully live with 3 or 5 other persons as remarkable. “All it takes is concluded a consideration,” basic second-year quad dweller. “You also have to trust each other.” Triple blow-drying However, the number of hassles seems to increase proportionately with the number of roommates. Even those who are well-adjusted may find the cozy homey image fading with the light of day, especially at the crack of dawn. “Have you ever experienced triple blow-drying at 6:30 a.m.?” laments a junior. “I don’t have a class till one!” “If the first alarm doesn’t wake me up, one of the other two will,” sighs another late sleeper. occurs at the The problem in reverse end of the day. What four people are going to go to bed at the same time? “When your roommates come in, either they will turn on a light or bump into everything because they didn’t.” Other typical comments begin with the phrase, “1 really like my roommates,” and constant end with these clinchers: “but smoke in the room really gets to me . . . . . . Arrangements Privacy and how to obtain it are major concerns of most individuals in a quad. Of course, if one wants time to himself, there is always the library. But what about when that romantic candlelit evening for two is needed. Most students find that their roommates are pretty cooperative when they ask for some “time.” “Hell, it’s an offer you can’t refuse,” explained an experienced freshman. “If you don’t help him out, he isn’t going to leave when you want him to.” Having to make arrangements for the use of the room, at a certain hour does spoil the spontaneity of the whole thing. Some students become quite inventive in dealing with this situation. One reports, “I have college’s activity room.” Another instructs that a subtle signal for “stay out” requires only a screwdriver. “Just undo the top screws on the inside of the lock so that they hang out halfway. The key cannot unlock the door.” Partitions are great for privacy, but do have considerable drawbacks. “They break up the room and give you that- boxed-in feeling,” says a sophomore, whose quad is divided into four sections. “It feels more like a hotel room than a home.” More commonly, a quad is divided in two. “It’s just like having a double. The other two guys are okay but they just aren’t into the same things as we are,” one student said. my sex life in the Economically, multiple rooming makes sense. A quad costs S 1 50 less than a double per person a year; a sextuple is S220 less. Each person must account for his own damages. “My roommate used to beat his head against the wall because ■ he was pre-med. One time while showing off, he jumped on the bed and aimed his head at the wall. It went right through. Everyone thought it was funny. We all pitched in and fixed the wall with spackle and then painted it. Maintenance wafc never the wiser.” Group sabotage Having a number of roommates also offers ready “opportunities for inventive group sabotage, because some practical jokes are just too difficult for one person to carry out alone. “Last year I would often wake up in my bed in the hall,” reminisces a sophomore from Porter, Incidentally, he chose to room with the same people again this year. Beds are often bunked to save space. Simply remove the springs from under the top mattress and roommie will fall right through. “If you really want to mess someone up, take the drawers out of his dresser and turn it upside down. Then replace the drawers and stand it up again," advises a veteran “joker.” Other goodies include sewing shirts to hangers, pouring flour into pockets and tying the doors of two rooms together with nylon cord. Does quad life have any redeeming social value? Some believe that it is an educational experience. “I got to live with three different people. One was foreign and we helped him with his Fnglish. We got to know a lot about his country,” said one person. “I used to only like soul music but now I’m getting into rock,” said another. Many view it as an exercise in tolerance, rationalizing, “Once you’ve lived in a quad, you can live anywhere.” �Part II Women’s Studies: a history Macdonald lectures on his journalistic views introductory, a feminist view of traditional institutions; analyses of these institutions; social theory, and skills. An example of institutional analysis would be Politics of Health, social theory, which would include courses such as Marxism and feminist theory, and skills offer courses which include Automotives for Women and Art Studio.

Turning to current politics, Macdonald said Democrats have always been a diverse group favoring the underprivileged while the Republicans, and especially President Ford, have catered to the social elite. Macdonald did not have any compliments for this year’s presidential candidates. “Tm a philosophical anarchist,” he said. “Ford is a real anarchisthe just doesn’t do anything about it.” “Carter is a simple-minded Southern Baptist,” he continued. “Why did he have to level with Playboy- about lusting after a woman?” Dumb capitalists He also commented on American businessmen, particularly those he interviewed during the Great Depression of the thirties. “They didn’t have anything up here at all,” he said, indicating his head, “and they had not the slightest idea how to, talk.

After the end of World War II Americans seemed to develop a tendency to divulge their sexual lives to each other. “But if I asked them how much money they made they looked at me as if 1 was , crazy.” “One confession of mine is that I’ve always been a money writer,” said Macdonald.

Women’s Studies was designed and proposed as a unit of the Collegiate system, permitting it, as an academic unit, to offer courses for elective credit, but not a major or degree. The proposal made to the University said that women “have Keen subjected to an educational system which has reinforced the stereotypic images of women as passive, dependent, unintellec'tual and unable 'to analyze and understand our own position in society . . The lack of this knowledge reinforces our own sense of inferiority and is used to justify our stereotypes.. .

Perhaps important, there would be greater freedom to develop a more democratic form of governance, hierarchical rather than a department structure. WSC is Governance controlled by a assembly, which meets periodically to decide matters of policy for the College. Its introductory course, WSC 213, is taught by a collective, some of whom are undergraduate students who have taken 213 and the preparatory course for teaching it. The supervising faculty member for WSC 213 this year is Dr. Lillian Robinson of American Studies. Regarding the WSC program, Robinson said it is divided into five major types of courses: rescinded when Women’s Studies capitulated “under protest.” WSC is not due for another review for some time, and College members say they would like to take advantage of the relative security they are enjoying to make the more University community aware of their program and its ' goals. WSC is one of the largest programs of its kind in New York State, and attracts students from many other institutions. Efforts are underway at other SUNY campuses, however, to organize more programs like it.

On the contrary, I am simply trying to point out that America is floating in a sea of apathy, and some of the crew is jumping ship. everyone not Certainly attending the rally was a “Moonie.” Some went because it was an event.

It is an alternative for those students who are bored with the Student Club, and find it difficult to get off campus. The Other Place offers live bands and dancing on the weekends. Adjacent to the pub, is the pizza shop. A game room with pinball machines and pool tables is located in the rear of the Pub. Atmosphere? There is no particular atmosphere in the Pub, just the standard barroom scene. Given the diversification of people on campus, the atmosphere changes with the patrons any given time, often as mellow as a wine and cheese party or rowdy as a bar “giving away nickel beers.” On weekends the Pub features live bands while charging only a fifty cent cover. Food Service, which is operating the Pub, along with the Student Association (SA), selects music ranging from disco to hard rock, hoping to satisfy those people who “stop to check out the scene.” Diverse reactions What are student reactions to the Pub? Opinions are as diverse as the makeup of the student body. A frequent complaint that the music is too loud is caused in part by the fact that The Other Place is not large enough for some of the sound used. Another common equipment complaint is that the dance floor is too small and also that the crowds are a bit unbearable during the weekends. A major gripe about The Other Place was the fifty cent cover charge on weekend nights. Donald Bozak, Assistant Director of Food Service, explained that they are not paying for the bands with any other food service funds. The fifty cent charge was imposed to pay for the bands and thus far no money has been lost, on the contrary there has been a slight profit. Continued profits will be used periodically to provide free entertainment. Other students enjoyed the large crowd, as one person put it, “I cap always go there and see someone I know!” Many like the location, the pizza shop is next door and “you can hang out and play a game of pitlball.” Also the music apparantly pleases the clientele because of its appeal to a wide range of tastes. One point of concensus is that The Other Place is more popular than the Student Club because it facilitates interaction amongst people. The design of the Student Gub is geared toward intimacy with high backed booths and hidden corner seats. With The Other Place only a few steps away, the Student Club pan maintain an intimate atmosphere while the crowds flock elsewhere. exas Instruments IN( ONPOR A I LO to Ca Into advanced problem solving smoothly a naturally with this simple, easy-to-use programming system.

Although student survey results indicate a high priority for' expanded coverage, this proposal surely does not represent what students intend. The provisions of Sub Board s loophole-laden proposal are deficient in the following respects: (a) One law firm, rather than experts from different firms, will he retained to advise students. Would it not be wiser to retain attorneys who are experts in many areas of law that are of importance to the University than to take our chances with the advice of only one firm? (b) The firm will he paid a flat fee of $30,000MO for legal services to be rendered througlwut the year. Common sense dictates that a voucher system be used; the attorneys should send periodic statements to Sub Board specifically describing the services performed and the cost of these services.

The audacity and dishonesty of the Sub Board and Student Association members involved is amply demonstrated by the fact that the choice of which firm would be chosen tq represent/advise students was made before the formal proposal was ever written up! (Who did write the proposal, anyway? At least one of the three committee members has complained that she played virtually no part in the decision-making process. As Summer Director of the Student Legal Aid Clinic, I argued against the adoption of the proposal at the Sub Board budget hearings, which were “conveniently” scheduled during August. (A copy of the proposal was not made available to me until the afternoon before the hearing.) My adversary at the hearing was S.A. attorney Richard Lippes. David Association Brownstein (who has been chosen Director of the new Legal Services Program) and Steve Schwartz (Student Association President and member of the committee charged with writing up the proposal) were at the hearing in their capacities as members of Sub Board and vehemently rejected the Clinic’s arguments while supporting those of Mr. Lippes. P.S. The proposal was unanimously approved by Sub Board. I went to ask Dr. Lorenzetti, to inquire whether the administration would approve this use of mandatory fees, as Sub Board had promised. To my surprise, Dr. Lorenzetti had never even been shown a copy of the proposal by anyone from Sub Board or SA! He told me that careful consideration was necessary before any decision could be made. The administration has not yet ruled on the use of mandatory fees to finance this proposal. Sub Board assured me that before any firm was chosen, public notice would be posted so all interested attorneys in the Buffalo area could submit bids to Sub Board describing the services they would be able "to provide. The following day, David Brownstein told me that only those attorneys who had been involved in “student law” would be permitted to submit bids. I protested in favor of open bidding for all, but realized the futility of my position. I did, however, suggest the names of two Barbara attorneys that Sub Board should contact both of whom have Handschu and Lenny Claif had extensive experience in representing students on this campus, as well as at Buffalo State College. Neither of these attorneys was ever contacted. (Are the pieces Beginning to fit together?) To the surprise of no one, Richard Lippes was chosen by Sub Board as the attorney to provide legal advice under the proposal. (No wonder he has been “lobbying” for the implementation of this proposal during the past four SA administrations.) Next, rt was (quietly) announced that Sub Board was accepting resumes from students for the positio’n of Director of the Legal Services Program. I applied and you guessed was interviewed by Sub Board and it . . Richard Lippes. Lippes later told the interviewing committee that he wouldn’t be able to work with me. David Brownstein, a member of Sub Board with little experience and even less understanding of student needs in this area, has been selected as Director. Lippes’ presence at the interviews is analogous to the eompoyees of a corporation choosing their own employer! Isn’t it usually the other way around?! My object is not to complain about not being selected; I knew the result of my application the night 1 appeared at the Sub Board hearing to argue the Clinic’s interests. The point is this: If this proposal is implemented in its present form, the result will be an illegitimate expenditure of $30,000 of your mandatory student fees. You might as well throw the money in the sewer. Until input from every knowledgeable source can be utilized to come up with a legal services program that is fair to those for whose “benefit” it is being operated, the Legal Aid Clinic should be maintained in its present form. If and when an adequate proposal is presented, the process for selection of attorneys (plural!) should be conducted equitably and openly, to ensure the intelligent expenditure of student funds.

More Politics' on page 19 �'Bullets in the Potato Salad': restrained insanity by Robert Coe Spectrum Arts Staff Bullets in the Potato Salad, playing until Octpber 2 at the American Contemporary Theater, made me think about comedy. Is that a situation fatal to perceiving the humor of the moment? Vet, if that's what happens to you in the theater, it is not to be helped; anyone would rather laugh well than think about laughter. At Bullets in the Potato Salad the audience laughed a lot, and so did I; it's the funniest show I've ever seen in Buffalo. When my critic got the better of my naive laughter, I could coldly admire the performer's skills while decrying their lack of direction and to high-minded editing. But then when I Was laughing, I could still perceive that it was the perfectly timed verbal bullet (The TV Plant Lady: "Next week, travel slides of my Wandering Jew.") rather than the originality of the concepts that caught my fancy. Maybe you gotta think to laugh these days. Or could one take the other view: that there just aren't that many new situations , ' I in comedy? Mother hen the new Allen, Tomlin, by Pryor, Cosby, Bruce, broken ground o Carlin, Chase, Firesign Theater, et. al. Or even the newness given to the predictable by Sid Caesar, Mel Brooks, and Jackie Gleason. that's Bullets gives us a mother (Carl Kowalkowski (Robert son 0. right) bitching at her sour and silent squawks book, who Groves) finally puts down his comic like a chicken, and lays an egg on the kitchen table. It was a funny take, good prime time TV comedy. And the joke is taken to a Thurberesque conclusion: she calls the I don't believe that for a minute. Witness c — hospital and the doctor (Jim Bisco), arrives to hear her squawking angrily in imitation of her son, and the son deny his chickblood; exit Mom to the booby hatch. End of Bit, applause: just as you thought. But It worked, didn't it? So did the claustrophobic priest in the confessional, bored with his job: "Take two asprin and call me in the morning." And the neurasthenic Maharishi Souvlaki, and the Disco Meat Market, and the only surviving Kamikaze pilot in analysis (of his failure at suicide, he screams, "I take sword, I expose belly, I of person THURST SWORD DEEP IN BOWELS!!! sitting next to me - .. Thespian itch? If comedy is funny situations, it also partakes of what lets us see situations as funny: and patently funny situations lose that edge simply by relying on the patent to get the laugh. For example: a Richard Burton commerical for Cruex (a great impression by Groves) is at heart a one-joke bit, and may not sustain itself through seven references to plays of Shakespeare and fifteen to Burton's lifestyle. A few of the bits were simply too self-conscious of themselves as "funny situations," thrusting points on the audience after they'd been adequately made, or pushing a joke that wasn't the soul of the bit, thereby watering down its potency. But the comedy is nearly first-rate most of the time. Mostly, the ACT Comedy Workshop showed remarkable insanity, mingled with the kind of restraint and attention to detail which characterize the most effecting comedy today. I especially noticed their courage in throwing away mumbling them, speaking under someone else, lines being allqsive, vague, or indirect, trusting to the smarts of the audience. This was the real hipness of the show. The — lapses in quality mostly occured during the considerably duller second half; there must have been problems getting enough material together for an evening. ('The Variety Show from the Lizard Lounge" was uninspired.) TV-dinner theater All of the bits were put together by the six people in the show, plus Buffalo Evening News critic Terry Doran. They are all strong performers and personalities'" especially Groves, Vitoria Taylor and Lewis. The latter did an absolutely hysterical bit about an Indian gynecologist with a boa named Nehru. Equally fine was the opening schtick which proposed the cramped little ACT theater as a supperclub. Groves and Cathleen Carter eating celery and muttering something about the kids until an accordian player appears with Kowalkowski and Taylor to do a few songs from Oklahoma. It ended with the performers stealing the celery and the Parker House rolls a little too unreal to truly cut into the absurdity of the scene. Endings seemed to be problems; a funny take on a female driver picking up a male hitch-hiker ended so abruptly that nobody know whether to applaud or not and didn't. The best bits managed to combine a broader or more "serious" human situation with the one-liners the workshop seemed to have a handle on: Kowalkowski as "Da Poppa" wanting to work a miracle and become a Saint so maybe he could get a vacation sometime. He plays the old shell game with three empty tin cans and a communion wafer; "La gonna take-a God, and Ima gonna put him unda dis cat-a food-a can-a .

And where I would be / cannot. —an old nursery rhyme / American hardboiled detective 'story developed in the late 20s partly in reaction to a school of American crime writers who were consciously imitating a British detective tradition characterized by ingenious plots and a genteel literary style. What Dorothy Sayes and A.A. Milne wrote over there was being brought over here by the likes of S.S. Van Dine. Dashiell Nammett's caustic review in 1929 of the latter's The Benson Murder Case ("written in the little-did-he-realize style") seems to mark a special moment of breakage and departure, a sign that the scenes and pressures of urban life in the United States increasingly invaded the stuff of literature. But hardboild detective fiction did not merely reject a style and a way of looking at the world it substituted a definitive through crime puzzles its’own; substance'of a way of writing that style and was concise simple, at times brutally real, and at all times unselfconsciously idiomatic; a subject matter that was drawn from ordinary life and sometimes from an authentic underworld; and a new emphasis The — confirmed coward.

And all of this intrudes in spite of RiOrdan's apparent fashionable sensivitiy to women. Riordan's hipness makes the book's shoddy treatment of women puzzling, but his hipness is the very quality which destroys another aspect of classic hardboiled fiction: the simplicity, brevity, and precision of its language.

Small screen Sit-corns and cops tops The big question this hour: is any commentary on a "New Fall TV Season" just presumptuous, wasted effort? Presurhptuous because column-readers and TV-fanatics (fanatics for TV .as i| is now, at least) don't overlap much, I fear; wasted effort because, out in the Great American Heartland, as often as someone lusts after Laverne, Fonzie, oR Starsky, there's someone else who doesn't particularly care what the tube serves up. A widespread opinion not "Let's watch this series or that", but "Let's watch television." This lack of discrimination can only stand to grow as TV series formulae (that's the correct plural of "formula",grammarians) become more and more formalized. Out of the twenty-one new fall shows, thirteen are either situation comedies or police shows. There are a few departures from this norm, including at least one conscious effort to start a new trend; time for that later. At the .moment, here are the “big" new shows of the new season, together with an enlightened prognostication for their chances of being with us in January. Every card-carrying cynic in this fair land should, at some well-chosen hour -r perhaps when the test patterns come on, do homage to The Tube, where the bland, God save them, will always lead the bland. Oceans may always be the likes of Laverne and Shirley, Happy Days, The Bionic Couple (let's face it, it really is one show), and The Rhoda Phyllis Moore Show (same applies there). Consider what looks to be the biggest hit of the new season Charlies Angels, whose description as Police Woman-Wrr\es-2 sound like less of a slash than I intend it to be, in some corners. The "Angels" are three stunning female private-eyes, played by three stunning models Whose names would be beyond Jerry Lucas' power to remember. Between the three.they have two facial expressions; one is a smile and the other isn't (is Chevy Chase in the — — — house?). highly ballyhooed, largely because of Lear's alleged stroke of. genius in putting a political comedy on screen in an election year. When not bandying topicalities (the series will include "up-tothe minute revisions to accomodate the most current political happenings”), it deals with an inexplicable affair between a William Buckley-esque columnist (Richard Crenna), and a "liberated-woman" (I'm sure they mean it in quotes) journalist. And the ultimate on "TV's new maturity'/can be found in Lear, the most aware producer in TV, having made his Bernadette Peters' character as cliched and vapid as every other television feminist. Lear's other new series, The Nancy Walker Show, has a great deal in common with the series preceding it Thursday nights (on Channel 7/ABC), The Tony Randall,Show. Both stars arfe cast in roles that fit their images well randall as a judge, Walker as a fast-talking talent agent. But both are so lamely written th&t their chances for, success stand or fall on theTleads' personal appeal. In one of those flashes of mania that pass for insight in the TV business, the networks have decided to drum up a taste for hang on airplane pilots. We thus have Baa Baa Black Sheep on Spencer's 2/NBC, Channel and Pilots on CBS/Channel 4, dealing with a World War II flying squadron and an air rescue team, respectively Wherever this moment of inspiration happened to come from, let's hope we never hear .from there comment - — — . again What's left? The ever-growing Ethnic Detective contingent (Serpico on NBC, Delvecchio on CBS); variety shows with popstars ( The Captain and TenniUe) and comics (Cos, Van Dyke and Company)-, several other odd-balls that can be counted on to amount to little; and the relatively major innovation of the Mini-Series. I hope to turn my attention to the latter two categories in a future column.

Though their music was not - strictly soul or funk-oriented (for a group -with a high riding sirtgle called "Play that Funky Music," they played an amazing array of heavy rock tunes, too. The crowd enjoyed their set and was even more appreciative of their best number, which amounted to a rock V roll jam extravaganza. With two guitars riffing away, the bass and drumc cooking up a storm and a beautiful synthesizer, the number was "Progressive" rock at its best. Definitely one of the more satisfying jams I have ever watched.

Cherry plays to no Special classes. Their music knows no specific boundary. The group's mode of "electrified Funk" may change with the times, warns Parissi.

Say Amen, people - Prodigal Sun �'The Three Sisters' Though misdirected, the cast preserves a Chekhovian spirit set is cluttered and this production. has not decided whether it wants to be naturalistic or expressionistic, the blocking is awkward, and the characters' lines are obscured by pointless "business." At the end of Acts II and III, when the lights should go out completely to allow Irina (II) and then Irina and Olga (III) to exist unseen, lamps remain burning onstage, so that the actors have to get up and sneak off in full view of the audience, shattering the dramatic illusion. Worst of all, the first two Acts are played generally as if the play were a farce. There certainly is an element of subtle ironic comedy in The Three Sisters, though it dissolves as the play proceeds. But the world of farce is completely alien to Chekhov. Farce requires a lack of emotional involvement and an exaggeration of buffoonery at the expense of character which could not be more at odds with the gentle, understated, complex, and ironic visions of Chekhov's plays. It is as if Natasha, with all her coarse vulgarity, were directing the play. Although Chekhov does allow us to see Natasha's side of things, there is no question where his sympathies lie. He sympathizes with the characters who exhibit kindness and generosity, however wrapped up they may be in their own illusions. He shares their longing for something better, and their sense of loss at the destruction of their world of companionship .and shared sensibility. Although we are intended to see the humor in their illusions and in the triviality of their lives, we are always supposed to identify with them and care for them. To introduce farce into this world, to go for every cheap laugh, to have the characters running around the stage like a bunch of to While sitting in the Avon Theatre in waiting Stratford, Ontario, for the Shakespeare Festival production of Anton Chekhov's The Three Sisters to begin, I jotted down the following description of the set; "Crowded interior. Wooden boarded backdrop, rather open, receded to a corner, center stage up. Four entrances, two in each wall. Coffee table down right with chairs. Chaise down center. Low table down left. Higher table slightly up left. Serving table and fireplace up left on other side of first entrance. Dining table up center, near curtained French windows (entrance number 2). Portrait of a man on "wall," then curtained opening (entrance number 3). Large armchair and side table, center stage. Piano up right, between curtained opening and fourth entrance. Large white column to right of fourth en. mce I quote myself not out of any misplaced delight in my own powers of description, nor to convey, a precise image of the set, but simply In order to suggest the incredible clutter that greets the audience's eyes at the beginning of the play. It is, I discovered, emblematic of this production's complete lack of directorial control. John Hirsh is listed as the director, but since there is no biographical sketch of him in the program, as there is for everyone else at the Festival, I have no other evidence that he even exists. Judging from this production I would say that he probably does not. Lacking direction There is just no control of or direction patented Russian Keystone Kops, is incredibly insensitive. It destroys the first act. Superb acting Yet in spite of all this, the play survives and manages by the end to be quite moving. This is entirely attributable to the overall quality of the acting, which is very high, The cast list reads like an all-star roster from this year's Stratford Festival: Martha Henry, Marti Maraden, Smith, Michael Liscinsky, mannerisms and arch crudity. It is as if she were still playing Millamant, the heroine of Congreve's The Way of the World, in which she scored such a triumph earlier this summer. I believe she is an actress capable of considerable emotional depth, as her performance in Anthony and Cleopatra this season demonstated, but she>v1dently needs good direction, and she gets none here. In any case, she was miscast from a purely physical point of view (though this might not have been troublesome had her performance been better). It is so apparent that she is older than Martha Henry, that Ms. Henry’s Olga has difficulty in being convincing as an aging spinster with Masha as her younger sifter.

Rosalie Sorrels shares the spotlight with Jay Ungar and Lyn Hardy tonight and tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. The tale of Rosalie Sorrels is an oft-told one: of her early life and marriage in Idaho, and her subsequent divorce; of her throwing herself and her children headling into the life oi,a traveling folksinger, telling stories of the road, friends, enemies, lovers and heroes and heroines. She talks onstage with the air of a friend who's just rolled into town sharing a beer in your parlor; the rap is just as important as.her songs, mostly her own and ones by such friends as Utah (who's also coming to the Phillips Coffeehouse in November.) Maybe the best way to think of Rosalie a friend to music, to is as a friend women (in Bernice Reagon's words, "When Rosalie speaks about music, she speaks about being a woman"), surely to the many friends who pack the Coffeehouse whenever she appears here. I think of her as the Edith Piaf of folk music, someone who can taring across in her singing great — Prodigal Sun joys and deep sorrows To make the coffeehouse a real bargain, that multi-talented couple known variably as Jay and Lyn Ungar and Jay Ungar and Lyndon Hardy arrive fresh from last weekend's Buff State Goodtime Festival. They've handled rock with Cat Mother and the All-Night Newsboys (whose Albion Doo-Wah is an undiscovered classic of country-rock), and variety of styles with the David Bromberg Band, and string-band music and original songs, with the Putnam String County Band and by themselves. Jay is a magnificant fiddler and mandolinist; his original songs ("Last Go Round", "The Answer to the Question") are surprisingly gentle and introspective, Lyn plays sturdy rhythm guitar, and several of her new-style country songs, like "Lonesome", are classics. Both Rosalie and Jay and Lyn have excellent new albums out on the Philo label. For the two-for-the-price-of-one deal of the year, though, hear them in person tonight in Norton Union's 1st Floor Cafeteria at 8:30; tickets ($1 students, $1.25 Faculty and staff ,51.50 everyone else) at the Norton Ticket Office. “ Friday, 1 October 1976 ill .

Now, it is certainly true that the Doctor becomes in Act IV a rather incoherent spokesman for a nihilistic view of things, but it is neither so aggressive nor controlled as Hutt makes it. It is as much the expression of his increasing senility as is his constant forgetful I ne?s. In fact, Chekhov's stage directions indicate that Chebutykin remains, "in an amiable mood" throughout the last Act. With these exceptions, however, the performances in the Stratford production are excellent. Particularly fine are Alan Scarfe as Andrei, Keith Baxter as Vershinin, and Martha Henry as Olga. Keith Baxter is an actor of extraordinary versatility. His Witwould in The Way of the World was foppish and genial, his Anthony in Anthony and Cleopatra was inflated, posturing, and slightly mad, and his Vershinin i's intelligent, sad, physically withdrawn and controlled, but with genuine and touching outbursts of enthusiasm and hope. He does not have the hearty vitality of Alan Bates in the American Film Theater production of The Three Sisters, but his somewhat more tentative and vulnerable Vershinin is an equally valid reading of the role. Dignity perserved , Alan Scarfe displays the same ability he showed as Fainall in The Way of the World to develop a performance over the course of an entire evening. His transition is superb from Andrei's rather absurd but — . nevertheless charming optimism in Act I, through his troubled preoccupation in Act II, to his complete defeat in the last two Acts. He manages to make distaste with life and trivial disappointment compelling, without having any startling or dramatic actions to perfbrm. Martha Henry, like both Baxter and Scarfs, is a controlled,, professional performer". She does not flail about'as both Maggie Smith and Marti Maraden tend to do. and so is the most convincing of the three sisters. In a production with as little direction as this one, the absense of excess becomes a positive virtue. A notch below these three, but still quite competent, are Micheal Liscinsky as Baron Tusenbach, Eric Donkin as Ferapont, Richard Curnock as Kulygin, Pat Galloway as Natasha, and Marti Maraden as frina. Liscinsky is uuch better as the verbose, sincere, imaginatively limited Tusenbach than he is as Claudius in Hamlet. The broad gestures required by Shakespearean tragedy seem , beyond his range, but he is quite good in the smaller, naturalistic world of Chekhov's play. Richard Curnock, too, gives a fine performance as Masha's pompous and boring but kindhearted husband, the schoolmaster Kulygin, both of these characters, the chief comic butts of the play and the object of much of the audience's laughter, succeed in achieving a certain dignity by the end through their acceptance of their own limitations and of the knowledge that the women they love will never love them. It. is a tribute to Liscinsky and Curnock that they preserve f^Utendote' 7 - & 9 pm CONDUCT UNBECOMING Starring Michael York. 203 Allen St. 383.-2891 Leather Lined jpjpjjv KICK UP SOME DUST AT THE U.B.

That happens in this instance and mars what might otherwise have been, controlled, properly thoroughly a satisfactory performance fay Ms. Maraden (as it does Amelia Hall's Anfisa). In the production as a whole, it results in an unfortunate alternation between farce and pathos; Chekhov should be played in the middle ground between these extremes, Checkhov is a’very great dramatist and The Three Sisters is his greatest play. But his drama is not as tough as Shakespeare's; it cannot sustain almost infinite interpretations and retain its essence. It can be destroyed by an insensitive production. If a director does not establish the right tone, then the subtle blend of comedy, melancholy, grasping, insensitive wife and pathos, of delusion, nihilism, and hope, will disintegrate. The ideals of Chekhov's characters, unlike those of Shakespeare's men and women, are not embodied in their lives or articulated in their actions. They remain the expression of something which can never be achieved, and they are always at odds with events. The beauty and sadness of The Three Sisters lie in the way the characters' hopes never manage to intersect, so that they live side by side, unable to stop hoping and unable to help one another. The discrepancy between facts and ideals has comic possibilities, but those possibilities must be scrupulously controlled if what is most important about the play is not to be lost. It is to the credit of the Stratford Festival players that, with no apparent direction, they have succeeded in preserving much of the play's beauty despite a disastrous beginning. and she handles it very effectively. Marti Maraden, on the other hand, has the demanding role of Irina, the youngest of the sisters, and she is not quite adequate to it. She is energetic and cheerful in the first Act, but her big scene in Act III, where Irina feels her life disintegrating, remains unconvincing. One of the many bad consequences of the complete absense of pacing in this - Artful Dodger, Honor Among Thieves (Columbia) It seems somewhat absurd that this album should even be reviewed for a college-aged readership as Honor Among Thieves will find little if and market on this or any campus. Different bands aim for different age groups, and (hopefully) Artful Dodger is not aiming for us. You may want, to send this home to your kid (e.g. high school-aged) brother, where it will melt right into his collection of Kiss, Bay City Rollers, Slade Jremember them?J, and whomever else your hometown top-40 D.J. has brainwashed him into idolizing. He may be a little upset, however, that not every song jumps at him with the fast-paced banality of an incompetent drummer and unimaginative but energetic guitarists. Two selections, "Scream" (ironically enough) and "Dandelion", are included to showcase the band in a more peaceful mode. The latter contains some nice piano work, but alas, the band had to bring in an extra (compentent) musician (Eric Troyer) for it. These two cuts, along with “Good Fun", are the best work on the effort, and this is saying very little. Note: I use the term “effort" very loosely. The psychology behind the rest of the "songs" (again a less-than-accurate description) seems to be, "Let's beat these numbers to death on vinyl and we'll tell the little monsters that we're great and they'll love us." I just heard on of these songs On WGRQ, if that tells you anything about where this album is destined to find an audience. If you secretly long for your early-teens and high school dances, you can turn out the lights, give this record a work-out, and imagine having that doll (guy or girl) who got voted "most popular" right where you always wanted him/her; in the darkest corner of the gym. Otherwise, I suggest that you dodge this disk. -Ted Vanderlaan Eumir Deodato.Very Together (MCA) I was always under the presumption that jazz and disco were two different types of music. Seeing the super trend -of every artist going disco, jazz has been hardest hit by the thing it needs the least the plaguing Disco Beat. Which brings me to "The Jazz Artist Most Likely to Go Disco:" Eumir Deodato. The Brazilian may be remembered for doing some arranging for artists such as Stanley Turrentine, before he decided to cut it on his own. When Deodato first hit, he hit big in both rock and jazz. He had a smash single with his seriocomic version of 2001" and followed it with a version of "Rhaphsody In Blue," arraged in a similar vein. After that, his records still sold, each including a jazz/rock version of a popular standard, but none ever gained the prominence of his earlier hits. Deodato's latest. Very Together, is a slick number that is really quite forgettable as a jazz album but might by a nice souvenir for disco freaks, he appropriately massacres three popular numbers on this one, turning each into a Hustle-accompanier and all very commercially compelling, the first one, the album opener, is a rather humorous version of the Henry Mancini piece "Peter Gunn" a James Bondish song turned into a very inane affair with added lyrics by Deodato; "Who's that?/lt’s Peter Gunn/ Peter Gunn/ He's Bad/ Bad,bad Peter Gunn. .He's right, "Peter Gunn" is pretty bad. — Leather Upper Leather Sole their characters' integrity in a production in which Tusenbach and Kulygin could easily have become the first victims Of casual dismissal.

Friday, 1 October 1976 I Shot the Sheriff" is done half-decently for the third time around. Ray Gomez does some nice guitar work to make the reggae hit a passable cover version. At least we don't hear the singers say: "I shot the sheriff/ He was Bad, bad/ etc." But what gets the Classic Remake Award is "Theme from Star Trek, which at first listening may produce violent spasms of laughter and sickness. Of course, in the true model of the Law of Disco, the singers tout out the words "Star Trek" before the main theme, which is done on a high-pitched moog synthesizer to the Disco Beat. It is a rather painful event, provoking me to say, Star Trek/Please stop/lt's bad/re-e-e-al bad!" " So whaf we have is another jazz artist shot to hell (or disco-land, as Alice Cooper puts it finely on his newest).

Drew Kerr Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Amazing Blondel, Mulgrave Street/lnspiration (DJM Records) For all practical purposes, rock is dead. Even before The Who screamed "Lo.ng live rock!", it was doomed. Rock and folk and country are by no fneans- extinct, but they are deceased in the sense that in recent years no one has produced anything really new or innovative. The music of the past few years is nothing but a series of minor variations on melodies and themes which have been run into the over the last .decade. Not surprisingly. Amazing Blondel offers nothing new, but their music makes the wait for something imaginative a bit more bearable. ground are basically unintelligible or and the music is not awe-inspiring, but unimportant, at least catchy entertaining. One does not and it is beat, as in much jazz-rock, to strain to find the have simplistic. One the no means yet songs are by Mac; a lot of a little Fleetwood a little Steely Dan, guitar; but no lead vocals and guitars, virtually piano, vocals: harmony vocals and more harmony standard horns, flute, as well as the moog, violin, drums and bass. The lyrics Amazing Blonde! is the name of the two-man grpup consisting of Eddie Baird and-Terry Wincott who play almost all of the above-mentioned instruments throughout the album. Baird joined Wincott and John Gladwin in 1969, playing archaic instruments and producing Elizabethan-style songs. After two albums of Middle Ages schlock and Gladwin's subsequent departure, they apparently realized that their efforts to create a second Renaissance could not beat the current "heavy metal madness." This release, new here in the United States is a repackaging of two previous albums, Mulgrave Street and Inspiration, first released in England in late 1974 and mid-1975, respectively. Although there is no hint whatsoever of their discarded Elizabethan song structures, neither is this album an attempt to fit into the prevailing music of the early 70's, the Stones-Bad Company-Zeppe’lin era of "keep their ears ringing for a week." Inspiration is a misleading title, for the album offers nothing new over its predecessor, Mulgrave Street, and the group tries to mask its unoriginality with an excess of orchestrated stuffing. Also, side two ends with the obnoxiously-commercial "Be So Happy," which sounds like the theme song for a game show or a situation comedy, and "They're Born, They Grow, and They Die," which bridges the gap between easy-listening and strictly-classical. Mulgrave Street is much more subtle and . unoppressive. It may be more boring, but side two flows from beginning to end, tending to leave the listener in a state of severe tranquility (and you thought you had to get high for that).

If, however, you asked Keith Richard, Steve Miller, Stephen Stills, or Eric Clapton the same question, their praises would floor you. Cooder is one of the most highly regarded guitarists playing, be it acoustic, electric, of otherwise. When a bottleneck guitar was needed on any of the classic sixties rock'n blues tracks, Cooder and banjo sexto, both played flawlessly by Cooder. A gospel flavor is present here, and continues through "I Got Mine," a woeful tale of the misfortunes that befall the classic loser, generally with gambling, women, or the law. Several L.A. session standbys are brought in here to fill out the rhythm section, and show why, to quote Ry himself, "One of the things I love about making records is getting together with Jim Keltner, Milt Holland, Chris Ethridge, and George Bohannon." Bohannon does an excellent job of employing subtle, rather than overpowering, horns on this LP. Cooder admirably avoided leaning toward typical middte-of-the-road hooks through this entire collection. -"He'll Have To Go" opens with the usual reggae-flavored beat that is appearing on so many of his cohorts' releases these days, but Flaco Jiminefc's and Pat Rizzo's accordion-alto sax duet brings the track straight home in the Bolero rhythm of Mexico. classic Ben E.

And rather than an effort delight, the album with the classic Leadbelly-Jackie Lomax "Goodnight Irene" is a stroke of sheer brilliance.

The Spectrum Friday, 1 October 1976 . Sim �Regrouped Groovies dig that rock h'roll! by Mitch Hejna Special to The Spectrum The Flamin' Groovies are the epitome of,rock 'n' roll, they've paid their "dues” and probably ev§ ry other rock bands' "dues" combined. They've been taken advantage of, and most of all they've been ignored. It seemed rather ironic that this band should end its first final days of existence playing for bikers in sawdusted barrooms out on the West Coast. Since their outset the Flamin' Groovies have had a similar developmental past to the Rolling Stones. The affection .the boys had for r 'n' b and rockabilly was finely woven into tow pieces of vinyl calle'd Teenage Head and Flamingo. Those ballbusting pieces gave birth to some real intuitive and original rock 'n' roll that was smothered in all the hassles of the warped period of music in the late sixties and the early seventies. The Groovies' appeal for blues/rockabilly was perfected by founder Cyril Jordan "and lead vocalist .Roy A. Loney with cutting stabs like "High Flying Baby," and "Teenage Head." Those particular cuts from Teenage Head illustrated a fine combination of slide guitar work, accompanied by the versatile growling of Roys' vocal chords. The numbers "32—20" and "City Lights," provoke an attitude similar to , the drawling blues of "Prodigal Son" and "Faculty Girl." Ont.of the most witty pieces of copyright to appear on Edmunds. Despite the fact that the song was banned in England; it climbed to the top in Switzerland and France. Today France still remains a hotbed for the group. Fan clubs have erupted ahd bootleg Ips are consumed by the public the way'a vampire consumes blood. But even the success of the band was shortlived in Europe due to shitty and neglectful promotional work on the single releases. The Flamin' Groovies hassles involved singles released without their acknowledgement. All this, coupled with managerial rip-offs, eventually led to the groups' demise. Since those days the dissipation of the Groovies was never meant to be a permanent fixture in the annals of rock 'n' roll history. Like a true vet Cyril got it together again, and a few personnel changes were made (Roy Loney didn't come back). Just last year a single was releasecj, on the privately-owned Bomp record label. The single, ''You Tore Me Down" was previously recorded in England, and it was backed with the Raiders' classic "Him Or Me (What's It Gonna Be?)". The response was favorable and it led to them being signed by Sire Records. IMo complications This time no complications, managerial rip-offs, or petty grievances with releases were gonna stop the group. Chris Wilson has since taken over the lead vocal department, and for me, Lonly isn't missed. Their producer, Dave Edmunds, was imported to get things started. After all, Edmunds is largely responsible for the success of pub bands in England. Groups such as Ducks Deluxe, and also the comeback of a cult fave in the States, Brinsley Schwartz, have been advised to triumph. Dave himself is no slouch, he has two incredible albums under the group name of Love Sculpture. And his solo efforts such as Subtle as a Flying Mallet illustrate what a deep feeling Dave possesses for the Everleys, Phil Spector, and especially Chuck Berry (listen to his version of "A Shot of Rhythm and Blues" and you'll find yourself drooling quarts of saliva on the floor). Edmunds is a one-man *TeSnage Head was the comp "Evil Hearted Ada." The song sounds like a Presley/Phillips collaboration, y'know, the kind of stuff that used to go down at the Sun studios in Memphis back in '56. Roy even gives his voice the Gene Vincent "Be-Bop A-Lulu" echoed shake, and during the break of the guitar solo barks "Go Cap! Go!" You might say it's a tribute of sorts to Eddie Cochrans' Jerry Capehart (in "Blue Suede Shoes" Eddie originally screamed it): - . What resulted from this is probably one of the best Flamin' Groovies effort ever Shake Some Action! — , " | • * H ■ _ { ■ The album is another step in a different direction for the boys, but they're so versatile things always work out well in anything they attempt. The bluesy influence of Loney has been forsaken for the Merseybeat/Liverpool production of Edmunds'. But he probably had very little to say about the content. Instead he shaped this idea and molded it to give the group a vital shot in the ass. Shake Some Action is the culmination of originality along with the British Invaskm Beat, and along with the Dwight Twilley Band's effort Sincerely are the most vital pieces of pop perfection of the year and possibly the seventies.

But even the Stones' appreciation of thq r V b vintage was never fully acknowledged by the record buyer in the beginning. The singles they released were attractions to the albums. Take a look as 12x5, The Rolling Stones Today or Aftermath. All three exhibited surfacing versions of numbers by the likes of Willie Dixon, Bo Diddley ; and Sam Cooke, Otis Redding, ahd Chuck Berry. The first million-seller didn't come till 1970 with Sticky Fingers. Well, the Groovies had similar exponents and I guess it could simply be justified that they were at the wrong place at the wrong time. Technically, the group is still wrapped up in another era; just take a look at the cover. The whole group is outfitted in Mod tweeds and pointed boots. The image definitely reflects the music, which reflects the spirit —. which is very important. Despite the fact that the album does lack its average number of Loney/Jordan scribblings (such as their tribute to the “scandalous'' marriage of Jerry Lee Lewis to his thirteen-year-old cousin, entitled "Second Cousin" the new style and band performance if a comfortable one. And if it wasn't for this particular "change" there would have actually been no real sense of reforming. After ail the sound change has done the boys a world of good. It seems like they're playing even more ambitiously than before, and all the cuts are good studio pieces of Acvern ideology which is most especially exhibited in the early VJ Beaded version of "Misery." But the best cut for my money is the as in "Shake Your opener "Shake Some Action" Money Maker" as in "Shake, Rattle and Roll." That's followed by a perfect bit of Lennon/McCartney feeling called "Yes It's True" (even one of my cohorts thought it was THEM when I played this cut for him). Of course the real rock V roll rootage has not escaped the album, and I think Edmunds gave a little advice on this area. Originals like "St. Louis Blues,” Chuck Berry's "Don't You Lie To Me" and the Stone boulder December Child opener. Closing the album are fine selection of creativity that have the electricity and beauty of the Searchers numbers (short and .sweet), with "Teenage Confidential" and the beautiful ballad "I Saw Her." All the songs have that approach to romanticism which today seems to be lost and forgotten in the corporate structures of Top Ten Muzak today. The album maintains freshness till the very last cut, "I Can't Hide" which has a courageous fattening chord for a hook that can split the seams of a Ruski's black-market blue jeans from crotch to — — band/production studio, and he can hold his guitar playing against the best. — Abstractions unpopular — Extension Flamingo is a rock 'n* roll extension to Teenage Head, and although I've never heard the first classic Sneakers, I'm told that its roots are similar to the two albums I've previously mentioned. Incidentally, if you happen to look hard enough in the bargain bins of most stores, you should be able to come-up with these two monsters that is if ya . want rock 'n'roll. the Flamin' Groovies could do no It seemed like team and the band was writing great had a wrong, they tight as hell. But despite their dates at the Fillmore in 1970, and various club dates in the bay area, little was to become of the bands' enthusiastic sound. The following year they split for England and got the royal treatment before they played a date there. They stuck around and cut a couple of singles, the first being an anti-drug ditty entitled “Slow Death." The number was produced by Jordan's idol, Dave "I Hear You Knockin’ Ips reap the benefits of past inspirational work and present them not as a rip-off sound-alike but rather as unique extensions of that particular Merseybeat sound. The Flamin' Groovies display the same spirit they possessed the first time around. Those injustices dealt them in the past are all water under the bridge, so to speak.

Prodigal Sun �Politics in Soc 101: Powell upheld To the Editor. In a wholly different context than the one this letter will make its modest contribution to the editor was accused of yellow journalism. He responded not by confronting issues raised in the 1 “objectionable” Record Co-op letter, but by baiting people who would dare question his integrity. Similarly, in publicizing the activities of Ed Powell re: overt support for a Socialist platform and slate, the editor gives front page access to a fairly reactionary viewpoint, coupled with the same in the form of a guest opinion. Now in and of themselves, these articles are fairly harmless. They put forth reactionary points of view, true. They do not consider that a large number of faculty at UB sneak comments into their lectures seminars regarding their personal preferences: Gene Maddox Jerry Carter Jimmy Ford too, because if that’s right But all McCarthy. Lester one does not consider current history as an important part of students’ critical training, what is the purpose of education except to serve mainstream myths and ends? Stated positively, it is highly necessary that contemporary politics, imperialisms and culture be critically examined in school, and even in classrooms where there is no direct and these curriculum between phenomena, because if they are not, we become the dupes of the Idiot Wind, the guilt by association, the blowing of the Amerikan myth. It is the editors subliminal suggestion that education and politics should not and are not merged, which rankles. But what is the matter is the attempt to make Ed Powell’s support of a “peaceful and legal” non-militant Old Leftie socialist party, into an issue that smacks of, amongst other things, red baits to come by blowhard editors. When Powell’s classroom method becomes subject to mass media scrutiny the hysteria will break out; Ketter commenting, Regan commenting, and-every budding capitalist and free ; ihd — — — \ correlation J To the Editor. speecher demonstrating the “Higher points” which usually is where the real Progpdganda comes from at this University and where it has come from ih the past. . this making mountains of molehills is important because it becomes a way for editors to fabricate issues. What's the matter, Kortnan? Is the cutting off of funds for New World Orchestra, the reprisals against the Colleges, the disgustingly low level of political awareness at this campus, not enough material. That level of awareness is, incidentally, your fault due precisely to the type of politics you select or edit of mass distribution. It is not only your fault. But you are representative. In my classes, I suggest that the electoral process is a all parties have the same one class phenomenon thing to offer; irresponsibility and imposition of their ideologies. The Republocrats as well as the SWP (although 1 always root for the underdog). 1 suggest that my feeling is academically demonstrable, worthy of sound, and more intellectually “educated” and “uneducated” people alike, than is trust in political parties. I further suggest that the only solution to Amerikan political mythologies is social revolution. That, according to your editorial logic makes my sentiments eminently more newsworthy than Powell’s. Every professor/grad asst, has such sentiments which we express in class. We should demand equal time. But then, of course, your editorship would not be based on selective fabrication of issues, and potential baiting of socialists. It would be based on a commitment to point out the ACTUAL LEVEL OF POLITICS at this University. In short, I find nothing unrepresentative in Powell’s actions either in form or in content. I find them preferable to liberal consensus teaching. Your treatment of this “issue” is not making people think. It’s gonna make them chant mindlessly. , So, — Fred Friedman Grad Assistant, History Dept. all dissent In the context of this atmoshpere of reaction, Spectrum has taken it upon itself to launch an The Wednesday’s Powell The in attack on Ed Your attack on Ed Powell, one of the more visible critics Spectrum is a prime example of “red baiting.” of of this University and what this University stands period is a University undergoing The for reaction.

Since when does innuendo constitute, justifiable front-page news? day’s Apparently for The Spectrum it is all in a work. I am referring to the lead article in The Spectrum issue of Wednesday, September 29th. Journalism of this variety would best be printed on yellow paper, preferably with yellow ink. Let us examine this marvel of “objective journalism. Our eye is first offended by a photographic mock-up of a blackboard announcing exclamatorily, “The Militant.” Intended, I suppose, to create a calm, objective tone. Following this is the query, “Propaganda?” and a headline which attributes the article’s sentiments to “students.” And yet in the article itself we read that “Approximately 20 students were asked about Powell’s political statements, and although there is objection to the an indication of a general statements, it is impossible to determine how the Impressive entire class of two hundred feels. documentation. If only approximately 20 students objection were consulted and, at best, a general prevails, what is the basis for this distress? Eleven people, perhaps 5Vi% of the class. It is on such slim evidence that The Spectrum ran a front-page article. The very first paragraph of the article casts the subject matter in terms of opinion. It asks “Should a professor be allowed to express his political . The headline and the photographic make The Spectrum’s position quite clear. mock-up Although it shouldn’t be necessary to point it out the editorial page is the place for opinions. views. - What then is the news of this article? That a professor presented a political point of view before his class is hardly unusual, especially in a course on Alternative Societies, (a fact which the article neglected to mention). According to the article itself Powell identified his statements as opinions and invited students to offer “countering proposals.” What “laws” or “guidelines” have Ed Powell violated? Certainly none of those listed as belonging to the A A UP or to SUNY. This article strikes me as being little more than a front-page editorial which has taken on the task of criticizing the pedagogical techniques of an individual professor. That this criticism is itself prejudicial and political in nature is particularly reprehensible; at best it belongs in an editorial. Ideally, it would never see the light of day. The Spectrum's notion of journalism leaves much to be apology to desired. For starters it might try a public Ed Powell. After reading the article written on Professor Ed Powell’s classroom behavior I believe that the man has been unduly criticized and charged. I am a student in his SoC 101 course and cannot believe that a fellow student could make such false accusations! Professor' Powell did disperse a handout regarding the SWP but he did not “urge his students to vote for party members in November. And it is also true that Professor Powell was only answering a student’s question reghiding his suit against the Police department. No tSwtion of his case was made until a student asked if he was involved in such a suit. Professor Powell does not enforce his political beliefs upon students he merely states them. It is not as if he just stands up. there and preaches, the students ask questions, voice their opinions, state their disagreements and thus encourage him to continue speaking. He is just responding to the students’ questions. Professor Powell encourages that students speak out and even criticize him verbally and written. If the student who accused Professor Powell thinks there is nothing wrong with Democracy and our democratic system then why is Professor Powell, an American citizen, denied freedom of speech? He should be able to express his views for that is one of the things that democracy is based on and it should be kept alive. It is people like the accusing student who threaten democracy by trying to suppress people’s freedoms. freedom of So much for your democracy speech for those who say what you want to hear. — Name withheld upon request To.the Editor: 101 class I As a student in Ed Powell’s Soc. must object to the one-sided impression of the class that was reported in The Spectrum of Wed., 29th. I, for one, find Prof. Powell’s format of the course, agenda for an-alternative society, infinitely more interesting and relevant than abstract, conventional sociology. Perhaps others in the class would benefit more from what Powell teaches if they were only able to open their narrow minds to ideas that are different from those that reflect their indoctrination of the past 20 or so years. Nathaniel Richmond To the Editor. I’m sure you’ll get a lot of letters -about Professor Powell's politics. There’s nothing like if you weren’t around during, or red-baiting haven’t heard about, the 50’s that means attacking to make someone on the left for his or her views foolish or unprincipled media people feel important. Terrific, you can start a controversy. Instead of politics here are a couple of points on education and - - journalism. Going to high school during the Cold War I had a, civics teacher who taught us that in the Soviet Union kids had to study something called “propaganda.” We were lucky to be in America where we could study something called “the objective truth.” Later it came out that this teacher was the secretary of the local John Birch Society. At that point I began to have some doubts about “objective” teaching. In college in the 60’s we fought for universities . where teachers and students could be open about “objective their politics. We might not get the experience to we had a chance way, but truth,” that some subjective honesty. In many places, student newspapers played a leading role in this struggle. Now, where’s The Spectrum coming from with its articles about Professor Powell? Politically, from Joe McCarthy. Educationally, from the Cold War. Journalistically, from the pits. anonymous student who s the Who’s Danger, complaining on page 1? (Maybe it’s “Vic the anonymous sexist humorist whose letter appears 200 who on page 7.) Who are the 20 students out of were “asked” about Powell? What does Powell’s acknowledged as a assignment of Brave New World have semi-classic in college curricula for 15 years leafletting in to do with anything? How does his Norton Hall relate to anything? What the hell is a piece like this doing as the lead story of the week, anyway? You may have fun stirring up some excitement how for a couple of weeks with stuff like this great for about a little racism next week, it’s but before long people are going to controversy get pretty disgusted. - - — Michael Sartisky Instructor in Millard Fillmore College John Stuart Friday, 1 October 1976 The Spectrum Page . . nineteen �Inmate appeal the bull pen by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor News is something severely lacking at this University. Webster’s Unabridged Dictionary defines * news as “new information.” Well, there hasn’t been anything new around here in months. Webster also said that news is “fresh tidings." but the only tidings that come to mind are Dr. Ketter’s temporary ' goodbyes. ’ a matter New news becomes old news very fast around here. Take the new computerized registration system. By the time its second semester of operation came around students had stopped marveling at its inefficiency and were left only to complain about waiting in line (or “on line,” if you will). There was no more “news.” Or how about the awful parking problem around campus? Each fall, the same story appears about the lack of student parking places here and at Amherst. The occasional Letter to the Editor is printed, and nothing is done to alleviate the problem. This certainly is not “fresh tidings.” The old adage, “No news is good news” certainly does not apply to this campus and, certainly does pot apply to this newspaper. We need news. Not«only isn’t "No news good news” the ease, but as far as The Spectrum is concerned, “No news is bad news.” Every so often an a'h appears in The Spectrum asking for students interested in writing to come up and join its staff. This is all very nice, but it would be much more beneficial to The Spectrum if these went out and made some news people People complain that there is nothing of instead. importance that ever appears in The Spectrum.

All newspapers rely on hot tips from outsiders for part of their stories. But the best thing anyone can do to fill this news void on campus is make news. Go out and murder somebody. Steal a copying machine. Assault Dr. Somit. Blockade all University entrances. Now that’s news. These are “recent events.” (The third definition of “news” supplied by Webster’s.) They provide “new information.” Best of all, students will get to read about these items in The Spectrum and they will all say, “See all the exciting things that happen at Buffalo? Gee, Spectrum sure finds interesting things to write about.” If one student out there would just get ptomaine poisoning from food service food, not only would he create news, but he would bring on all sorts of discussion and studies that would all qualify as other news. Food Service would be investigated, the student’s coverage under the new medical health plan would be examined, and studies of Buffalo food service versus food services at other colleges would be undertaken. All this for one tiny case of ptomaine. News, thats what we need. Write a controversial Letter to the Editor. Expose graft in the Removable Feriodontics Department.

Also returning from last year’s three-year veteran team are Marylin Dellwardt, Barb Fislar, Hilary Schlesinger, Sue Trabert and Jan Weber.

This year, Weinreich decided to have only twelve women on the roster instead of the sixteen he carried last year.

The players themselves were pleased with this. The second reason is that the University insurance policy allows Weinreich to take only twelve players on road trips. summer, Weinreich This noticed Mary Evanco of Bennett High School and was so impressed by her that he recruited her and convinced Her to try out for the team.

Several students have voiced their objections to Powell’s blatant political support of the Socialist Workers’ Party and the appearance of The Millitant, the party’s newspaper, at the front desk of the lecture hall.

Yes, no and sort of, to two Stanford according who psychiatrists University reported their findings in. Human Behavior magazine. The pair quizzed 900 freshmen students at a large public school in a small town where most students live in university housing. They found that overall, co-ed dorms relaxed, more pleasant, are friendly, enjoyable and that the promotes greater personal growth than single sex living arrangements. They discovered men who opt for co-ed living have higher academic and career goals, who like to drink beer and who think 6f themselves as easy going and “on top of the world.” Women in co-ed housing, however, were found to be quite different than their female classmates stuck in women-only dorms. Women who lived under the same roof as men had higher atmosphere , BFT strike ends, but issues await decisions Buffalo teachers returned to. school in good faith on Monday, leaving the contract issues for which they struck in the hands of a three-man arbitration committee. This binding arbitration was proposed by the state Public Employment Relations Board (PERB) last Sunday after mediators were unable to bring the teachers and the Buffalo Board of Education to an agreement that would have ended the 20-day strike. The proposal was approved by the Board last Sunday night by a vote of 7-2. The Buffalo Teachers Federation (BTF) membership meeting at Shea’s Buffalo Theater at the same time, approving it overwhelmingly, 1581-251. The arbitration solution leaves the strike issue unresolved until the end qi next month when the panel must present its decision. This bitterness on both sides. SeveraNiundred teachers left their meeting without voting on the arbitrationcSbme of those who remained accused the BTF leadership of “selling them down the river.” Matt A. Gajewski and Samuel A. Sacco, both interim appointees to the Board who are up for election this fall, voted against the move toward arbitration. Four issues The provisions of the new two-year contract that had already been agreed to by both parties will take immediate effect. It will be the responsibility of the arbitration panel to settle the four remaining unresolved issues. The first of the four issues is salary, the Board has only offered an increase based on a teachers’ graduate hours and experience in the first year and a four percent across the board increase in the second year. The BTF demanded, a six percent increase effective February 1 for the first year and increments plus a five percent across the board raise in. the second year. The other areas for arbitration are Major Medical Insurance, Supplemental Benefit Fund and program restoration. The board is willing to sign a letter of intent to guarantee that programs and teaching positions cut for lack of funds last June will be restored this year only. BTF wants the positions guaranteed in its contract for at least two years.

These women also had a better self image than other university first year women, they described themselves as “easygoing,” they were less likely to view themselves as cautious and they placed more friendship, on emphasis independence and variety in new activities. They also placed less traditional on emphasis heterosexual dating. One year later the biggest change for students living in co-ed dorms was a drop in career goals. Fewer students still wanted to get that doctorate degree that had seemed so important several months earlier and they looked with more disfavor on demanding careers than did other students who didn’t live in co-ed housing. The two psychiatrists also report that students from co-ed dorms made more trips to the student health center, indicating higher levels of stress in co-ed living. For the women however, it might not have been all that stressful; 21 percent of them said they were visiting the health control center for birth information. * your Dean bans Fritz and Marlon t’e in H ungrey may countries impoverished someday be eating the 300 million pounds' of survival rations squirreled away in U.S. fallout shelters. .

On Sunday it seemed that arbitration was the only way out. It was the subject of six hours of talks before the board and BTF went into their separate meetings to poll their members on the question. Under the provisions of the Taylor Law, which prohibits strikes by New York State employees, each striking teacher is fined two days’ pay for one absence due to strike, amounting to an average of about $2000 per teacher.

Wednesday, 29 September 1976 S B m Your Gold College Ring or �No identify Women cheated by traditional college education Editor's Note: The following is,the first in a series •of three articles dealing with Women’s Studies as a growing field in academia. Part I examines the reason for Women’s Studies existence: the insistence of most feminists that American education has failed women, and continues to do so today. o involved undergraduates and people from the community. Often, as is the case here, Women’s Studies programs are involved with such agencies as rape counseling in the 1 community. Dynamic field by Laura Bartlett Managing Editor The great thinkers of history, for the most part, have not thought much of the idea of educating the female: A woman should he good for everything at home, but abroad good for nothing. -rEuripiclies A woman who is guided by the head and not the heart is a social pestilence: she has all the defects of a passionate and affectionate woman, with none of the compensations: she is without pity, without love, without virtue, without sex. —Honore de Balzac And it is highly probably that the undoubted superiority of the male sex in intellectual and creative achievement is related to their greater endowment of aggression .. The hypothesis that women, if only given the opportunity and encouragement, would equal or surpass the creative achievements of men is hardly —Anthony Storr defensible. [ women’s/ Their and physical disabilities render them psychological unfit to make important decisions or hold —Dr. Edgar Berman positions of power. . made But just because there are more women in the schools doesn’t mean that the schools are adequately meeting these women’s needs. The birth and growth of Women’s Studies as a field is largely a reaction to what feminists feel is the failure of conventional education to meet the needs of women; not so much in technical educational experience as in giving them the sense of self and confidence that it fosters in its male students. Aristotle concluded that women are less prone to become bald than men because they use their heads less. Has education come a long way since his time? Yes and no, and regarding women, it is unfortunately very often no. It is correctly pointed out by many that opportunities for women in education and employment have increased dramatically in recent years, as they have for minorities. While still less than equal in some cases, most are willing to admit that some progress has' been Why am I here? In her essay ‘The Education of Women,” Florence Howe said that our society tends to send women to . college unsure of their place there, and does little or nothing to help them sort out theuu resulting conflicts. How can they please themselves and please their future husbands and/or satisfy the demands of class and society? These conflicts have grown sharper, more fierce and destructive as the years have passed. Increased opportunities for women have only brought them more confusion, because society’s prevalent attitudes have not kept pace with the changes within its institutions. A woman may be getting honor grades law school, but society tells her she is a failure is she returns home each term without an engagement ring. Women’s Studies classes originated when groups of people decided that women should have a chance to talk about these conflicts and be “allowed to see the world through women’s eyes,” Women’s Studies College (WSC) members here have said. Most began with groups of faculty persons or graduate students organizing seminars among themselves, which later Part II will examine the history Women’s Studies program here. of the CHINESE FOOD KOREi JIPSKESE LIDS miUHO VIETHAM PHILIPPINES FRESH 8:30 a.m.—9:00 p.tn 8:30 a.m.—8:00 p.m 8:30 a.m.—5:00 p.m 1:00 p.m.—5:00 p.m Monday—Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday • • . • ... ...

Beginning Sunday, October 3, 1976, the Ridge Lea Library will maintain the following hours: (Association Several women in the WSC program here said, in describing their reasons for raking Women’s Studies courses, that they wanted “to get out of the narrowness of the world’s vision” for themselves and their rolenn it. Although women can now enter law school, medical school, or almost any field of endeavor, the way material is presented is still geared toward encouraging man, the and male emphasizes achievements. When women began to feel that they were wrong to be trying to achieve something in our society; many began to conclude that it was the society that was wrong. Lillian Robinson, faculty supervisor of WSC 213, “Women in Contemporary Society,” said that the first feminist educational reform movements were considered “isolated, eccentric and wierd,” but that Women’s Studies is now one of the fastest growing fields in the country. Sixty Women’s Studies courses existed in 1970; there are now 4000, making up about 120 programs. Robinson pointed out that many of those under an programs operate administration that is “either indifferent or hostile” to their existence. Howe cited an incident where she overheard a professor comforting a weeping student, disappointed over a poor grade on a paper. “There, there,” he said, “don’t cry about that paper. In a few years, you’ll be washing dishes and you won’t even reinember this course.” Many who have taken Women’s Studies courses say they have “changed their lives.” Perhaps that is why they have survived less than enthusiastic administrations, and continue to thrive today.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 29 September 1976 . �University of the Pacific College newspaper editor fired on censorship issue by Russ Smith Special to The Spectrum (CPS) — It never stops. Take a conservative town, a nearby college, an ironclad student government, an administration that scares the pants off the school newspaper, and a campus prostitution ring. What’ve you got? One more student scapegoat waiting to be skewered for hanging on to his principles. Ned Tolbert could tell you all about it. Tolbert is currently facing charges that could lead to his expulsion from the University of the Pacific, a small school in Stockton, California. What could he have done to raise such a ruckus at this expensive private school?. Well,,last spring, a couple weeks after he became editor of, the Pacifican, Tolbert decided to run a story that uncovered a fcampus prostitution ring, allegedly operated by several women who needed money to pledge sororities. The reporter, who refused to take a byline, claimed two confirmed sources would verify the accusations. The ex-editor, faculty advisor and editorial board of the Pacifican all agreed that the story should be printed. And so Ned Tolbert did run the damning article and the natives tried to chase him out of town. He was immediately fired by the Student Senate and notified by the administration that his status at the school was suddenly uncertain. The Senate then appointed an interim editorial board and unwittingly chose the writer of the explosive story as editor. That person soon resigned. cried “An 1 upper censorship. Tolbert administrator told me that the story shouldn’t Ijave been printed, even if it was 100 percent true,” Tolbert explained. “He said that our newspaper doesn’t fun those kind of articles.” Another student maintained that the substance of the story was never denied by the administration. “No one’s really looked in to-it. They have no reason to because it would just damage the school’s image.” But not everyone takes the same view of Ned’s plight. Rhonda Brown, president of Pacific’s Associated Students, said that Tolbert would have been fired anyway, mainly because he wouldn’t comply with budget regulations. “The story changed maybe one vote,” she recalled. Another source close to the controversy said that while there were budget troubles, it was more a combination of factors that did Ned in. “Ned was badly misguided by the outgoing editor, he was on the way out anyway,” revealed the source. Tolbert acknowledges other tensions, but stands firm in his belief that the prostitution story was the catalyst for his firing. “It was politically expedient for Rhonda Brpwn to give other reasons for the firing. It’s pretty ridiculous, but everyone seems to know what really happened,” he commented. Tolbert stresses, however, that his dismissal from the Pacifican is not the important issue. ‘There’s more at stake here than throwing an editor off a campus, there’s the whole First Amendment to think about.” Because of the strong-arm tactics by the school officials, Tolbert fears that the Pacifican will be reduced to a mere social calendar, devoid of any substantive material. “Jeez, they’ve got a rock group on the front page this week.” In a few weeks, Tolbert will stand before Pacific’s Joint University Judiciary Committee to face charges ranging from “irresponsible use of the student newspaper” to “acting contrary to the best interest of the school.” Vowing legal action against the University if he is expelled, Tolbert feels that the administrators “might want to let the case drift by the wayside.” >•««••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••***■********************** y^^—We are looking for a highly motivated, ambitious individual to solicit new accounts and to some extent If |UC service existing accounts for display advertising. |"*T TN II' I *\7 Initially renumeration will be strictly commissions, There is a lot of money to be made but only to the J extent X X V /A 1X x that you are willing to work for it.

THE SPECTRUM iKJt — 831-3610 355 Norton Hall THE WHEEL' ■SP//W/A/& DKWKS YOVR WAY' N / CORNER / I HAPPENS MAIN AND AMHERST EVERY WEDNESDAY BFLO., N.Y ' Financial interests University /officers face code of ethics Students at this University have periodically questioned President Robert Ketter’s position on the Board of Trustees on the Marine Midland Bank. The most recent criticisms were blasted last year in a debate between Ketter and students concerned with the budget . cutbacks. At that time, many students pointed out the contradiction of increased profits for big banks and corporations, while the SUNY schools’ budgets were being drastically slashed. One student asked Ketter whether his seat on the Board indicated a conflict of interest. Ketter firmly denied the charge, adding that University of Buffalo presidents have sat on the Board of Trustees since 1918. Yet, recently, several states have forced some higher education officials to resign from bank directorships and other firms. More than a score of states now have some form of ethic code specifying guidelines to govern the conduct of state employees. In efforts to avoid potential conflict of interest charges, college and university officers are resigning positions they now hold with banks, thereby hoping to escape public criticism. Two college presidents in Maryland felt the pressure of the post-Watergate morality when they were forced to give up bank directorships, even though no conflict had actually been proven. These resignations resulted from, rulings by the state board of ethics. William J. D. Boyd, director of a national clearinghouse for ethic codes explained that it might be beneficial for a college president to be on a bank board. He said, “There he could make contracts with potential financial contributors to the institution.” But conversely there’s a great deal of appearance of conflict. The president, if he wished, could decide which bank gets institutional deposits and which bank gets to open a branch on campus.” In the interview with The Chronicle of Higher education, Boyd said an actual conflict need not exist for the public to question a president’s membership on the board of some local bank. “The big point of these things... is to bring potential conflicts to the public officials’ attention so that they’ll be more aware that the public is uptight about these things, and justifiably so.” Not all agree on the enforcement of these ethic codes. In Alabama faculty members have balked at efforts to enforce standards established in 1973 by suing the ethics commission. A court injunction was obtained which/tdocked enforcement of the code and financial disclosure requirements. The teachers’ chief argument was that it was | an invasion of privacy. Boyd went on to explain that some states have codes of ethics which are “too sweeping” in power. These laws may discourage some qualified people who do not seek personal gain from participating in public affairs. Others have codes which may be intentionally ineffective. “Some of the laws are so cosmetic you could drive a truck through them. If anyone really wants to be unethical they’re going to get around those laws.” (CPS) — ' ... j lT’S : : HAiR Palmer’s Beauty Salon 3124 Main St. • J CHECK IT / at - - STYLE • (NEXT TO LAUNDROMAT)• UNISEX PRECISION ; - • J LAYER CUTS •Student Introductory Offer: 20% OFF ; •Call for appointment please 836-07771 Wednesday, 29 September 1976 The Spectrum Page five . . �EditPrial Stop landlord abuses This is absolutely the worst year students have seen in off-campus housing. For one thing, although University enrollment is constant, competition for apartments has intensified. Landlords have taken the opportunity to raise rents; it is not uncommon now to pay $300 a month, plus utilities, for a four bedroom apartment. One is tempted to say that $300 a month for any apartment is scandalous. But the physical condition of the apartment, its distance from campus and capability of heating itself efficiently, make the level of the rip-off relative. Apartments here and there on the Winspear and Bailey sides of the Main Street Campus are in condition good enough to make them even deals for the money. But this is the exception. Conditions in most apartments, especially in the area west of Main Street, are deplorable. How many of these pre-World War II structures have windows which hold no heat, showers improvised at the tenants' expense, and dangerously few electrical outlets? And how many student tenants have grown so used to such conditions, that they no longer provoke even mild outrage? Perhaps this is why the recent article in the law student newspaper. Opinion, found that 89 percent of the tenants polled would rent their apartments to others and 78 percent would recommend their landloards to prospective tenants. The findings published in the law student newspaper revealed that students ignorant of housing law precipitate landlord abuse. For example, only about a quarter of the surveyed students were protected by a damage inventory by the landlord, making the risk of losing the security deposit very high. But the grossness of the landlord abuses far outweigh culpability on the students' part. The recently released results of a federally-funded student-run survey of New York State Housing Code violations discovered a rate of eight violations per apartment in the University Heights area. According to the study, many tenants feel the city of Buffalo is negligent in its duty with regard to landlord responsibility. And the statistics bear them out. The report said that 534 out of 600 apartments visited were without fire extinguishers; 94 had no windows or fans in the kitchen. More than 100 units had rodents or pests at the time of the survey; in 134, the heating systems were found to be incapable of maintaining heat to legal specifications. In the face of all this, we find landlords who own many houses escaping prosecution by hiding behind corporate facades. We agree with City Court Judge M. Dolores Denman's suggestion that a law be passed making it easier to identify landlords who conceal ownership. It's easy enough to see why they hide. We don't suggest, however, that students sit back and wait for the State to improve their lot. The best thing we can do is to study the details of a lease before we sign it and know enough housing law to be critical. And whenever necessary, take a landlord to court, because they have been getting away with murder for too long. The SpECTi^uM Vol. 27, No. Wednesday, 29 September 1976 17 Editor-in-Chief Managing Editor Managing Editor Rich Korman — Laura Bartlett Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — — Guest Opinion Personal politics in class by Jay S. Rosen I would like to bring to the attention of The Spectrum and the University a recent act of blatant political propagandizing foisted upon students enrolled in Elwin Powell’s Sociology 101 course. When he titled his course prospectus “Agenda for an Alternative Society” I’m sury most of those enrolled did not envision the class becoming the farce it already has. I’m sure most of the class was not too upset when the instructor first spoke of the Socialist Workers Party, and urged us to consider it in November; or when a professor from College F was allowed class time to recruit new students from the ranks of the apathetic; or when copies of The Militant, a socialist newspaper, began showing up on the lecture hall’s front table. But last Wednesday came something I, and I believe most of the class did not appreciate. After a rather lackluster lecture on the meaning of culture in sociology, Professor Powell said that he would like to examine the concept of an alternative society, which he wrote on the board and underlined. I watched as two hundred pens lawered to scribble in two hundred notebooks, “alternative society” and probably underline it. The Professor proceeded to. .distribute a handout, which he said we were to keep in our notebooks, presumably because it constituted a part of the course, and presumably because we would be responsible for it, and might even value it someday as knowledge gained for Soc 101. What the handout consisted of was pure propaganda, in the form of an open letter to “comrades” among others, and signed by Ed Powell. On the top was written and underlined, “Vote SWP in’76.” Powell did not attempt to disguise, but rather illuminated the letter’s purpose. “I have chosen to work for the Socialist Workers Party during the election season. Hoping to persuade you to do likewise, let me explain my reasoning.” He proceeds to detail why Ford, Carter and even McCarthy are poor choices, all within a framework of typical radical rhetoric such as labeling “undermining the legitimacy of the State” a “desirable end.” The letter was concluded by an urge to join the building of a Socialist America and to subscribe to • The Militant. Following the distribution of the letter came approximately thirty minutes of oral propaganda, interrupted only a few times by student participation. The speech brought to light the Professor’s personal lawsuit against the city of Urban Studies I appreciate the article in Friday’s (9/24/76) The Spectrum regarding the College of Urban Studies. However, there are several inaccuracies in the article which seriously misrepresent my statements and fail to accurately represent the College of Urban Studies’ position in relation to the other Colleges within the Collegiate System. I strenuously urge that you allow me to reiterate the statements that I made to Mr. Lines so that my position and that of the College of Urban Studies are — Arts . . . . . Books .

Editorial policy it determined by the Editor-in-Chief ge six . The Spectrum . Wednesday, 29 September 1976 I. I stated that last year’s budget cuts disproportionately and adversely affected the Colleges in general and not simply the College of Urban Studies and that 2. the University must assess the role of the Colleges in general and that if the Colleges are seen as worthwhile then the Colleges must be adequately funded in the future. 3. The College of Urban Studies is not the only vehicle by which students can learn what the “real world of urban affairs is all about. A variety of departments and schools teach courses related to urban studies. C.U.S. attempts to supplement those necessary courses and to provide vehicles for innovation in the ways in which urban studies are " taught. process.” Keep in mind this is a Soc 101 class, in which most of the two hundred or so students are enrolled because it is required by many departments. They enrolled, and attend, with the assumption that they are going to learn the basics of sociology. The course is made mandatory by many departments, under that assumption. Yet, here is a professor, with a captive audience, many in their first week of college, spewing forth election year propaganda and handing Out open letters, under the pretense that he is teaching Sociology 101. The point here is not what his philosophies are, they are immaterial. He has a right to believe anything ne wishes, and he has a right to say anything he believes. He doesn’t have the right to campaign in a classroom setting under false pretenses. He doesn’t have the right,, to recruit students under those pretenses. He doesn’t have the right to distribute open letters under those pretenses. Let Mr. Powell distribute leaflets on the steps of let him expand his theories on the city streets, or in the local newspapers. But we should never let anyone turn a classroom setting into a personal political forum. Professor Powell’s behavior is, inexcusable, especially in a 101 mass lecture. It would even be inexcusable in a “Revolution and Dictatorship” cause, which, not surprisingly, Professor Powell teaches. The teaching principles of impartiality and objectivity are in no way present in Powell’s Norton, speeches. I’m sure Professor Powell would not have attempted such a stunt if he did not have tenure. I’m just as sure he’ll be “teaching” at this University at least until the Revolution comes, and he gets one of those good jobs. clarified To the Editor accurately presented: — Buffalo in which he is suing for the right to 'see the secret file the Buffalo Police have on him. Powell proceeded to inform us about the police state we "now live in, calling the FBI and CIA the “heavy artillery” in the “war” that’s being fought in our midst. He termed the local “red squads” and drug enforcement agencies as the “infantry” in this war, and claimed Campus Security keeps a dossier on people involved in drugs on this campus. Powell claimed, “we ought to see those files,” referring to files like the one on him, “then when the Revolution comes, we’ll know who to give the good jobs to.” This was met by considerable laughter, but I detected a strong thread of seriousness even through this most ludicrous of comments. Indeed, he later explained that, “If they don’t have a file on you, you’re not doing your part in the Democratic The article makes my comments to Mr. Lines if I supported a position whereby colleges are evaluated on an individual basis and that their continued existances are to be judged with reference to all too scarce budget resources. The point I was attempting to make is that the concept of the Colleges in general is worthwhile and that I advocate that the University support that concept. However, before individual Colleges can be fairly evaluated they must be funded adequately and given an adequate chance to perform. Before that evaluation can or should take place the University must one and for all declare its position as to whether, as a matter of University policy, the Colleges represent an innovation worthy of consideration for adequate funding. When any unit is faced with budget cuts, it is easy to not support a beleaguered unit when one’s own unit has not yet felt the knife. The Colleges at this juncture must support and assist all other College units so that the future of the Colleges is appear as assured. Unfortunately, my comments to Mr. Lines have been reported as if 1 advocated precisely the opposite position. I can only hope that you will afford me an opportunity to clarify my position and that of the College of Urban Studies. Dr. Lawrence Zimmerman Chief Administrative Officer College of Urban Studies �I Mao vindicated To the Editor. Exploration and idolization? To the Editor. • In response to the two letters protesting the ad for “Oui” magazine in last Friday’s The Spectrum, I have several comments to make. One, your letters Spectrum has every right to are offensive. the promote sales of tantalizing, scholarly publications like the aforementioned. You people obviously cannot see the benefits derived from reading this kind of magazine (a grave misfortune on your part), otherwise you would not be bitching. You women are all the same. Let me point out the immorality of suppressing what you have termed “sexist” material. Just as women were put on this earth to perform a series of functions for men, these magazines were put into circulation for the purpose of entertaining men, namely, to arouse intellectual provide adequate sensory and to curiosity (visual-sexual) pleasure. 1 believe that you are in favor of taking these stimuli away from men. This'is -ji , unfair. Women have the privilege of being'the honored servants of men. Without their services, men would perish. We all know this and we appreciate the cooking, cleaning, child bearing, and various services that are performed for us. Women however, seem to have little appreciation for their position, one in which great pride should be taken. Getting back to the point, magazines like “Playboy” and “Oui” are socially important for members of both sexes. Not enough people are convinced that a woman’s role is a subservient but a rewarding one. Magazines that display photographs of women in various erotic positions serve as reinforcements and reminders that women are indeed respected and glorified for their sexuality. Exploitation or idolization? , Vic “Danger” Correction In an article that pertained to the survival of the four-course load at this University, The Spectrum omitted one possible alternative being considered to ensure the continuance of the four-course load. The University is presently considering lengthening all 3 day a week SO minute classes to 65 minutes, in order to conform to SUNY’s official one contact hour—one credit hour policy. The death of Mao Tsetung has exposed a series of groundless interpretations of Mao’s life and tithes, and speculations about the near future with regard to both the internal and external affairs of the People’s Republic of China. Very obviously, such interpretations arid speculations made by the so-called “China experts” and published in a number of major news media across the States, havfe not been drawn from a true and complete understanding of the founding of socialist new China. Eyen students of modern Chinese history would have inevitably understood what the Chinese people meant when Mao standing at the Tien An Men square on October 1st, 1949, solemnly declared, ‘The Chinese people have stood up!” It is therefore not to be misled that such an important Chinese historical event which was gained only after the long-suffering Chinese people had waged life and death struggles for over a century, and had finally overthrown the rule of imperialism, feudalism and bureaucrat-capitalism, will be easily forgotten. As long as Marxism, Leninism, and Mao Tsetung Thought continue to echo, and the populous motivation'and determination persist, the Chinese people will consistently move forward to shape their new historical period of socialist revolution arid the dictatorship of the proletariat despite the death of Mao. . Glad it is to see that there have been pusblished The Spectrum (September 17„ 1976) two in generally regarded as accurate articles about China. However, areas covering China’s foreign policy, U.S.-China relations including the question on Taiwan needed further studies and evaluation. In international affairs, to uphold proletarian internationalism has been the resolution of China’s foreign policy, and the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence, its guidelines. Were 6ne to believe in the Constitution of the People’s Republic of China, one must trust what it clearly states, “China will never be a superpower. We should strengthen our unity with the socialist countries and all oppressed people and oppressed nations, with each supporting the other; strive for peaceful coexistence with countries having different social systems on the basis of the Five Principles of mutual respect for sovereignty and territorial integrity, mutual non'-aggression, non-interference in each other’s internal affairs, equality and mutual benefit, and peaceful Coexistence, and oppose the imperialist and social-imperialist policies of aggression and war and oppose the hegemonism of the superpowers.” The events in Angola show a clear contrast between the outstanding actions and policies of China and those of the two superpowers. China has consistently supported the. struggle of the Angolan people against colonialism since its inception. The struggle of the Angolan people has been carried on by three different liberation organizations in that country, namely the MPLA, based mainly among the Mbundu people in the north: the FNLA, based mainly among the Bakongo people in the east ; and the UNITA, based among the Oyimbundu people making up half of the country’s population in the south. The MPLA is the oldest group and many of the leaders of the other two groups are former members of the MPLA. in their complex hisotry, the three Angolan organizations have devoted as much time to fighting each other as the Portuguese. Unlike the Soviet Union and U.S., China considers all three Angolan groups to be legitimate national liberation organizations and has given military assistance and training to all three, supporting in their fight against Portuguese colonialism and urging their unity against the common enemy. With the cessation of hostilities against the Portuguese, China welcomed the Alvor unity agreement and suspended military aid to all three organizations, reflecting clearly that China would not supply arms to the Angolan people to fight each other in a fratricidal war. Internationally, China has assailed all foreign interventions in Angola, namely those of the Soviet Union, U.S. and South Africa, and has consistently urged the Angolan people to unite and expel all foreign imperialists. In the United Nations, China has similarly refused, as in the case of Bangladesh, to vote for the admission of Angola as a sovereign state until the foreign occupation forces are removed from that country. complete understanding of China’s policy, one would easily anticipate that U.S.-China relations could not be further improved unless the U.S. Government implements fully its principles stated in the Shanghai Communique. With a foreign Four years ago, the U.S. and China issued the Communique to normalize relations the two countries. Steps toward between normalization were clearly stated and the condition essential to final implementation of diplomatic relations were stated by the U.S. The following excerpt from the Sino-U.S. Joint Communique of February 28, 1972, spells this out: Shanghai The two sides reviewed the long-standing serious disputes between China and the United States. The Chinese side reaffirmed its position, ‘The Taiwan question is the crucial question obstructing the normalization of relations between China and the United' States; the Government of the People’s Republic of China is the sole legal government of China; Taiwan is a province of China which has long been returned to the motherland; the liberation of Taiwan is China’s interhal affairs in which no other country has the right to interfere; and the U.S. forces and military installations must be withdrawn from Taiwan. The Chinese Government firmly opposes any activities which aim at the creation of “one China, one Taiwan,” “one China, two government,” “two Chinas,” an “independent Taiwan” or advocate that “the status of Taiwan remains to be determined.” The U.S. side declared, “the United States acknowledges that all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China and that Taiwan is a part of China. The United States Government does not challenge that position. It reaffirms its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by thd Chinese themselves. With this prospect in mind, it affirms the ultimate objective of the withdrawal of all U.S . forces and military installations from Taiwan. In the meantime, it will progressively reduce its forces and military installation on Taiwan as the tension in the area diminishes.” These conditions have long come to pass. “Tension in the area” diminshe'd with the end of the Indo-China War. Yet the Communique awaits implementation by the U.S. Government. Since 1972, there have been many actions taken by the U.S. Government, which fun counter to the intent and spirit of the Shanghai Communique. While the U.S. Government reaffirmed “its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves,” it has consistently been operating, by its continued military presence in Taiwan and its arming of the Kuomintang (KMT), in a manner which can only serve to encohrage the KMT to hold out against a peaceful settlement of the ( question. On the other hand, as it has clearly stated in the Communique, the Chinese Government considers the continued U.S. military presence in Taiwan is to be the same as continued U.S. military presence in China and is therefore a violation of China’s territorial integrity. To end its interference in Taiwan, the U.S. Government must take only three steps; 1. Remove all U.S. forces and military installations from Taiwan; 2. Cancel the Mutual Defense Treaty negotiated with the KMT on Taiwan in 1954; and 3. Cease diplomatic recognition ot the KMT According to the Chinese Government, these three steps are non-negotiable and are the first ones which need to be taken in order to dead the way for diplomatic relations. It is not necessary, as is commonly believed, for the U.S. to remove all business investments from Taiwan or cease all economic and cultural relations with Taiwan betore the establishment of full diplomatic relations is possible. Therefore, it is sincerely hoped that the U.S. Government will soon fully implement the Shanghai Communique, and will, in the spirit ot mutual trust, reaffirm “its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves.” This conforms to the common desire of the American and Chinese peoples.

Record the names of those candidates endorsed on record co-qp issues, as alleged by Mr. David K. Brownstein. Of codrse, Brownstein disregards the validity of our off hand, as any political hack will, wheli protecting his own vested interests. It seems that it hasn’t yet reached Mr. Brownstein’s loud butjflim percejjypns, that the issue of providing freer student semceby the record co-op is one of the (if not the ) primary and volitile issues facing our student body. Contrary to Mr. Brownstein’s flippant remarks, it was stated clearly in our letter of Wed., Sept, 22nd, to the editors of The Spectrum that these endorsements were awarded on the basis of our collective confidence in those candidates’ aggressive stands on the important record co-op issues. (You probably are aware that the co-op has been under heavy pressure to cut back, and even suspend, its Co-operative indeed posted endorsements, services.) . • It should be .noted that our clear confidence in those candidates stems from- our long association with theSASU candidate that we endorsed. He is an active, outspoken, and reliable co-op member. His running mates approached us with equally credible and positive positions on record co-op issues, and won their endorsements on that basis. -It should also be noted here that our letter offenng these pomts was submitted and accepted by the editor-in-chief, previous to the printing deadline. hut was no, printed.

Record Co-op Editor's note: This is the clarification you feel is so urgently needed. The Co-ops initial letter explaining its endorsement of three candidates was removed from last Friday’s issue because the arrangement agreed to by Co-op representatives and myself was unacceptable to Bill Finkelstein. He had every right to object to The Spectrum printing the Co-op's letter of explanation without the names of the endorsed candidates, in the absence of any reply from Mr. Brownstein. On the condition that he did bring in a letter that evening. it was further agreed that the ■ names of the endorsed candidates would be reinserted into the Co-op’s , letter, and that both would appear Friday, the last day of the election. Again, and rightfully so, Mr. Finkelstein said this would benefit Mr. Brownstein. At that we decided that, since none of the charges concerning the endorsement had appeared in The Spectrum, no letter would appear Friday which may have influenced the election one war or the other.

This letter is in response to “concerned with the truth” regarding the frame-up of Kenneth Johnson. We would like to inform the author of the letter that his ‘facts, taken from the hysteria campaign created by local Buffalo papers, were incorrect and distorted. Three members of the Buffalo Street crime finit arrested and brutalized Mr. Johnson while he was at work in the Mental Health Center. Two of these officers carried loaded pistols into the facility which is prohibited by New York State law. Ken was arrested on a 1970 traffic violation and was subsequently thrown into a police linpup where, still bloody from his beatings, he was identified as the alleged rapist. The only resemblance Mr. Johnson has to the rapist is that he is a tall, black man with a beard. However, the rapist was identified as having light skin. Kenneth Johnson is a dark-skinned black man. We believe the two women who are identifying Mr. Johnson are doing so under pressure. Another rape victim has told the defense committee that Mr. Johnson is definitely not the man. Mr. Johnson has proof of his whereabouts at the times the rapes supposedly occured. Threfe judges have refused to even read sworn affidavitsSvhich could easily clear Kenny’s name. Over 100 black men were picked up off the streets and harrassed before Kenny was arrested. We feel he is merely the innocent victim of how the rape charge has historically been used against black men. Delbert Tibbs, a black man from Chicago was charged with raping a white woman. Tibbs was hundreds of miles from the scene of the rape Presently he is on death row. The Scottsboro-Boys were nine black men sentenced to die for the alleged rape of several white women. After their conviction (death sentence) one of the victims admitted publicly that there had never been any rape at all. The list of racist frameups can be traced throughout U.S. JJistory we might add that no white man has never been executed for rape in this country. We can all sadly remember that the 1971 Attica massacre took place only 30 miles from Buffalo and the subsequent trials of the Attica Bros, were in Buffalo. We believe the facts speak for themselves. But we are also not as naive to believe that legal lynching! do not occur in the courtroom. By actively supporting Kenneth Johnson we are fighting against racism that is so deeply instilled in all of us and against ’ - injustice. \T ISSUES OF (976 Page eight .

Gilbert Spectrurh Staff Writer In an appearance last Friday at the Law School here, former Watergate prosecutor Leon Jaworski - discussed his actions as Special Prosecutor during a lecture and lengthy question and answer period. Starting a half hour late, Jaworski spoke briefly on his difficult position in deciding who to prosecute and how, whether to recommend indictment of former President Richard Nixon, and on the of delicacy possible on the “culpability” part of a sitting president. Regarding his decision not to recommend indictment of Nixon, You're invited! Wine and Cheese Party for Sociology Faculty and Undergrad students Sponsored by The Undergraduate Sociology Assoc. — Friday, Oct. 1 at 3:30 rm 47 Bldg. 4224 Ridge Lea Regarding Ford’s pardon, said he had studies the Jaworski issue “long and hard,” and ha’d determined, on the _basis of a recent federal court case, that the pardon was legally - unassailable. That decision, he declared, stated that if limitations are to be put on a pardon, they must be found in the Constitution. “And, of course, there is no such thing to be found there.” A,questioner then asked if that meant a president could pardon himself. Jaworski called that situation a special case, saying that “the courts would smell something rotten about that fish.” The crowd responded with laughter. despite evidence in his possession revealing the ex-President’s likely involvement, Jaworski cited two mam reasons First was the delicacy of a Grand Jury indictment, handed down before the House of Representatives had concluded impeachment proceedings. Jaworski feared that the Supreme Court would rule that the impeachment process should take precedence, thus delaying, for quite some time, much of the inquiry into Watergate, and specifically into the ex-President’s involvement. Split denied Second and perhaps more Jaworski's belief was important that President Nixon would not resign if indicted. This, he thought, “would tear the country apart” and “should be avoided at all costs.” In a related topic, Jawprski denied any split between himself decisions and ■ his staff on concerning prosecution His comments on this subject were perhaps prompted by a New York Times review of his recent book in whicli the reviewer saw the chief failing of the press during the Watergate as not having seized up on the split between Jaworski ahd his staff as a topic worth reporting. The New York Times either directly through the courts, or by indicting Nixon regardless. The other concerned the numerous social issues raised by Watergate and related scandals. reviewer saw it as a''result of Jaworski’s passive, unenthusfastic attitude toward full prosecution of Nixon and other high-level officials. Jaworski denied this, saying that although there were significant policy disagreements, in the end there was little disharmony, and that there was always a great deal of respect between the prosecutor and his staff. At this point, Jaworski opened the floor to questions, many of which" concerned technical : legal aspects of Watergate. Two other recurring themes were Jaworski’s refusal to challenge President Gerald Ford’s pardon of Nixon, Crimes against humanity .One particularly emotional questioner asked, if it .was true that Jaworski had been a lawyer at the Nuremberg trials. When answered yes, she went on to talk of the children of America and her own children, to. whom she this could not explain “contradictions” The accused at tried and were Nuremberg sentenced, often to death, for crimes against humanity. Nixon, however, - who illegally directed the .bombing of Cambodia, resulting in thousands of innocent deaths, has gotten off with a pardon, before even being tried. Jaworski declined to “speak on that issue,” saying “I really don’t see the comparison.” Concerning other areas of Watergate, Jaworksi was asked his opinion as to why President Nixon did not destroy the tapes the moment their existence became known. Jaworski answered in two parts. First, he said,'had NixOn “used all the rationales,” declaring that the contained tapes confidential utterances by high government officials, and even heads of state, and that a grave threat to national security was posed, he could have destroyed the tapes, and survived the torrent of criticism that would descend upon him. Next, Jaworski declared that Nixon failed to do so “because he believed his claim of Executive Privilege would hold.” Finally perceiving that it would not. Nixon could no longer avert the catastrophe that would end in forced resignation. Broadening the discussion, Jaworski was asked if the minimal fines and sentences received by the' top Watergate conspirators wasn’t indicative of a system that provided, primarily, “justice for the rich.” Jaworski declared that “America has the finest judicial system in the world,” going on to explain that identical trials, tried on the East and West coasts, could very well reach opposite verdicts. Continuing, he stated that “this is that be something cannot changed,” and that “slight” inequalities must always occur. Wednesday, 29 September 1976 . The Spectrum .

In addition, one must have 3 reason for writing about a particular subject. In last Friday’s issue of The Goldberg of The Spectrum music staff wrote a entitled, Troubfe\ in Radioland.” It is obvious Tromhis article that Mr. Goldberg either does not know, or did not follow the formula described above for writing a commentary /BtJF: commentary. Why did Harold Goldberg feel the need to write a commentary on BUF? After speaking with BUF Program Director Cal Brady and Production Director Pat Feldballe, some relevant facts came to light that probably led to Goldberg write his commentary. It seems that a few weeks ago, Goldberg was doing some freelance production work and sought the use of BUF’s production facilities. At this time, BUF’s production studio was/ being renovated. Cal Brady anfl Pat Feldballe both told Harder Goldberg that he could not use the production studio at that time because the renovations made such work impossible. Harold came back once again for the same purpose. As a result, Harold became extremely upset .and left the BUF studios. Being a persistent person he went back once again, this time at night (maybe because there is usually one person in the studio at night) where to his surprise he met both Brady and Feldballe. An incident similar to the previous day’s occurred and once again Harold left the studio. A week later Harold phoned Brady to ask if he could interview BUF’s staff in order to do a “completely truthful and honest commentary on the station. Does Harold expect us to believe after all the conflicts between BUF and himself that Friday’s article was indeed “truthful and honest?” I suggest it was not, that it was out of context and certainly biased. Format, changes A main portion of Harold’s commentary was based on what he perceived as BUF’s“changing” formaf. First of all, BUF’s format was not changed, it was “altered.” There is a definite distinction BUF’s these two concepts. was altered program slightly and according to Brady “not enough to make a difference.” The “altering” of BUF’s program seemed to be centered around an increase of national airbuys (commercials). Goldberg realized that BUF is a commercial radio station and must survive on its commercial income. But what Goldberg doesn’t realize is the process involved in getting advertisers to buy airtime. Harold also implies in his that Brady is commentary responsible for the addition of national airbuys. If Harold knew anything about radio and the roles of different managing personnel he would have realized this is not Brady’s job but the job of Sales Manager Bruce Kaplan. Goldberg continues to relate to us his philosophies on commercial enterprise when he says, “If the station needs money, why can’t it search for a larger amount of customers in the Western New York area.” First of aft, Mr. Goldberg, no matter how much a station searches, commercials are hard to sell. As Cal Brady said, “We don’t sell commercials, they buy us.” Second, it is harder if not almost impossible to sell a of BUF’s commercial airtime to local merchants as Buffalo’s economy is not very sound. Harold , also attracts national airbuys because of their “hype.” What Harold doesn’t realize is local commercials cart have just as snuch “hype” as national cohunercials; it’s all 4 matter of howl a commercial is done and individual taste. In Harold’s attack on national airplays, he contends that listeners were angered at the change. Does Harold have a definition of who he perceives “listeners” to be? I doubt very much if he talked to all the listeners. To make such a a gross statement is generalization: Harold does not know who the listeners are and what they want. Harold contends that BUF added more commercial airtime as a direct result of its recent ratings. These ratings, taken by ARB (national rating service), showed BUF’s listening audience was not increasing but remaining at the same level. The prior rating (taken in April 1975) had shown BUF’s listening audience increasing by 50 percent in some shifts and remaining the same in others, with no declines. BUF’s ratings increased tremendously last year and since has maintained that level. Cal Brady is, and always has been, against the addition of more commercial air time. “No program director in his right mind would want more commercials. He would have to be out of his mind,” he said. This is clearly shown by an episode which took place in January of 1975. At that time, BUF Sales Manager Bruce Kaplan wanted to increase the station’s commercial policy from eight an hour to twelve an hour. Brady stood fast and fought this Because of Cal’s proposal. philosophies on 'what • •Tuesday • Trouble in radioland more slantedly stated than truthful between • & — Commentary - • Tequila • No Minimum - Ginger Brandy 50c shot Serving Lunches Daily 11:30 New movies - a - Every Wed.

Still employed Part of Harold's commentary was centered on three BUF radio personalities: Bob Allen, Jola and Pat Feldballe. Harold concluded that Allen had been fired. In fact, some of Allen’s duties were cancelled, but he is still employed at BUF in other capacities. As of now a decision has not been concerning reached Allen’s reinstatement to the Town Crier show. Hajold also led us to believe that Jola, a Saturday morning DJ, was fired by Brady because pf her attempts to have Brady removed from his job as program director. This is only part of the reason for Jola’s termination. Her ratings, as supplied by ARB, were the lowest of all WBUF DJ’s. Her ratings were even lower than foreign language shows presented by BUF. Foreign language shows have low ratings because they are educational specialized community programs that appeal to and attract a minority of a station’s potential audience. A show with a more popular format such as Jola’s must attract a larger audience to remain viable, and on the air. Hence, she was fired. BUF is a professional radio station and must behave in this fashion. If you don’t do your job, you don't have a job. The manner in which Harold Feldballe’s wrote about Pat change from a weeknight DJ to Production Director leaves me with no other choice than to simply say he doesn’t know what he is talking about. Pat was not coerced into becoming production director, as Harold would like us to believe. This episode between Cal and Pat was a simple misunderstanding among friends. lack of There was a communication between the two. The question is almost resolved with both persons now knowing what each other wants. Currently, Pat is the Production Director and has a Saturday night show from 6 p.m. until midnight. Pat might have his regular weeknight show in the future. But as Pat’s weeknight show was vacant, Cal shifted Phil Chordes to this spot. Harold could not understand why Cal would do this. As far as Harold could see, Phil had low ARB ratings. But Harold did not reveal all the facts, for according to PULSE (another rating service), Phil has the,fourth highest rating among all Buffalo DJ’s in the 18-plus category of listeners. This is an extraordinary feat considering BUF has a relatively weak broadcast signal the compared to other commercial stations in Buffalo. When Harold was interviewing Brady, Brady told him of this, yet Harold did not include this information in his commentary. conclude, the only To “Trouble in Radioland” which involves BUF, is a lack of communication between radio personnel. But this is a problem which is encountered at every radio station. And, more than in most businesses, there are a lot of different people with different goals and different ways to go about achieving these goals. Pat Feldballe summed this up best when he said, “People are weird everywhere, but people in radio are extra weird.” \ Wednesday, 29 September 1976 The Spectrum Page eleven . . �Intramurals begin this week Editor’s note: Naturally, it is not possible to cover all intramural football teams. Here is a preview of what can be expected from some of last year's top teams. We will try to cover other strong teams as the season progresses. by Donald Weiss Staff Writer (ex-Buffalo basketball player) was originally with the “Stuffed Mushroom” team, but was lured to “QB” in what appears to he one of the biggest contracts in intramural history. The terms of the contract have hot been disclosed, but it should prove beneficial to -Randall and to “QB 714.” With Randall and former baseball player Wheeler on the line, quarterback Brian Rosenbloom should have ample time to find his receivers. Other standouts include Mike Dixon and Mark Scarcello. Spectrum This week kicks off another intramural football season, and it should prove to be as successful as in previous years. The intramural football program has been on the rise ever since Buffalo dropped varsity football in 1971; and this year’s program has attracted 72 teams from both campuses. There were even some teams rejected because of time and field limitations. In last year’s playoffs, the “Clits,” led by quarterback Bobby Johnson, defeated “QB 714” 7-6 to win the championship. The other semi-finalists included the ‘‘Bionic Men” and the “Stuffed Mushroom.” The “Clits” should be just as strong this year with the addition of quarterback Paul Dimiero, who played football last year at Slippery Rock College., Last year’s quarterback Bobby Johnson will be moved to the backfield giving the “Clits” an explosive offense. Defensive standouts include Doug Zeif at corherback, Joe Makinajian at linebacker and Bernie Mckeever. A steal Last year’s other finalist, “QB 714,” has two new additions to their squad. Lineman Jim Randall Last year’s “Stuffed Mushroom” is this year’s “Barest 400.” They have attracted 6’7”, 240-lb. Jim “Tiny” Slayton. Slayton and center Tom “Stickball” Syron should give quarterback John Friedman enough time to run his offense, while Jimmy Sullivan, Larry Stoker, and Mark Bogen lead the defenseto what they hope will be a successful season. “The “Bionic Men” should be in the thick of things again this year. They lost a heartbreaker to the “Clits” last year, and they will be seeking revenge. Quarterback Mike Betz and receiver Duke McGuire highlite a bionic offense, and defensive back Mike Groh and linebacker McGuire headline the defense. Other teams that will be contenders in their respective divisions are “Slombas,” with quarterback Pat McGrath throwing to receiver Rick Anthony; the “Raiders” with veteran Dave Shoshone, the “Reamers,” and the “Fargo-Sterling Express.” The division to watch is the 3:30 p.m. time slot on Mondays. This includes “QB 714,” “Bionic Men,” the “Raiders,” and the “Reamers.” The champion may come from this division. Statistics box Golf at the Brock Lea Tournament, Rochester, September 24.

WP — — — — — — — — — — — Baseball Bulls show promise by John H. Reiss Assistant Sports Editor All good things take time. Wines age, people mellow and now Buffalo’s baseball team is finally taking shape. It finally happened when the Bulls returned from the Interstate Classic in Albany this weekend with a third place finish out of twelve qualifiers. The Bulls wiH get a chance to display their new found talent against Cortland tomorrow and again against Siena College in a doubleheader on Saturday at Peelle Field. Coach Bill Monkarsh is looking forward to these games in an effort to discover whether his team’s recent success is transient or whether it will be of a more lasting nature. “I’m absolutely elated with our play,” Monkarsh beamed. “In beating Maine [on Saturday! we defeated one of the finest schools in the nation.” In changing their personnel, the Bulls have indeed changed their style. Last year Monkarsh could relax and wait for his charges to explode with a barrage of runs to ensure victory. This time around, however, the Bulls must rely on solid pitching and tight defense to pull them through. Until the tournament, Buffalo had been successful at performing this task only about half the time, but at Albany things began to go right. Hitting, fielding, pitching John Pederson emerged as the team’s hitting star, collecting nine hits over the weekend, and will anchor an outfield which is as yet unsettled. Jack Kaminska sparkled on defense at shortstop and tightens an infield consisting of John White at first, Mike Groh at second and Ed Durkin at third. ■••■Hear 0 Israel** For gems from the The above book is - available at: .. Monkarsh couldn’t have been Against Utica, “everything went bad,” Monkarsh said. The second game was a spine tingler. with happier his team’s performance. “We’ve really turned he things around,” claimed. “We’re playing heads up baseball, more so than we’ve done in the 'past. Our team speed has been great and the pitching has been super. It was just an excellent, excellent trip.” Mike Betz who has become the uncontested ace of the pitching staff fired a four hit shutout against Maine while striking out eight. Buffalo scored the game’s lone run as John Pederson doubled, went to third on Mike After a disastrous first game in Dixon’s bunt, and scored on John which the Bulls bowed to White’s single. Against unheralded Utica College, by a Mansfield College, score of 5-4, Buffalo pulled itself pitchers Dave Borsuk and Bill together. The pitching was Coomber combined for a spectacular and the defense one-hitter as Buffalo won its provided four double plays in the second consecutive game. The next two games as the Bulls winning run was tallied when blanked Main 1-0 and then slipped John White’s single was followed by Mansfield 2-1. by John Pederson’s triple. .

Card at Norton Hall Box Office receive $6.50 tickets for only $4.50 m �Soccer Bulls score stunning victory over McMaster team by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer The way the soccer Bulls were carrying on inside the team’s locker room, one would think that they had just won the national championship. The embracing of coach Sal Esposito and tri-captain Pete Weidler symbolized what could be a big turnaround in Buffalo sports this year. The cause of all this excitement was the Bulls 2-1 defeat of McMaster University, one of Canada’s best soccer teams on Friday. Without a doubt, McMaster is the best team the Bulls have faced this year. “We didn’t know what to expect. All we knew, was that they were the champs from Canada,” said senior Paul Kubicki. But, by the same token, the McMaster Marauders had never seen the Bulls either. Most of the opening minutes resembled more of a volleyball game sincd play was dominated by several series of head shots. The Buffalo defense was .virtually flawless, and it was twelve minutes before Buffalo goalie Bill Gleason was called upon to make his first save of the game. Meanwhile, the Bulls passed, attacked faked, headed and Graham Marauder goalie Cochrane, who shut out the Bulls in the first half. But, McMaster proved why they are one of the best teams in Canada. They too, mounted an awesome offensive attack but as he had done so well throughout the young season, Gleason roamed the net flawlessly. Pouncing on every possible ball, his superb net play led to a scoreless tie at halftime. But Gleason wasn’t the only Buffalo defensive star of the first half. Junior Mike Allan saved a goal with his outstanding sliding block of a McMaster shot. Minutes later, a hard shot bounded off Chin and just before he could recover, there was Daddario, known to his teammates as the “garbage man.” His second attempted poke-in was successful and he put the Bulls on top Change for the worse The Marauders opened the second half with a new goalie, Pat Chin, and with twenty-three minutes gone into the half, Buffalo’s George Daddario ended McMaster’s shutout by slicing the ball to the right of the goal. Again, the Bulls applied the pressure to the opposing goalie. And as before, it was Mark Karrer, Brian Van Hatten and Daddario who were the keys in the Buffalo threat. At one point, Daddario almost had his second goal of the game, as Karrer lofted a long comer kick towards the goal. As Chin came out of the goal, Daddario poked a shot that just landed wide of the goal. McMaster mounted a threat of their own, but Gleason stood his ground and again made four superb saves. On the first, he jumped high in the air and knocked the ball down with his right hand- With the others, he just simply made a great sliding trap, a casual dive to his left, and took on a point blank shot in which he caught the ball. But, the Bulls proved that they are indeed only human. For about four minutes, there was a lapse in the Buffalo defense and McMaster’s Miles Rodoja took advantage, scoring on a pretty pass from his teammate Greg Martin, to tie the score. -ALL 2-1. Down by one goal, and time not on their side, the Marauders mounted a last effort attack to tie the score. (In the process, the Bulls’ Karrer and Wain Reed suffered ankle injuries, which were fortunately not serious.) But, it was senior Mark Bachman who took control and maintained the pressure on the McMaster goal. That, and Gleason’s sure hands stopped the McMaster drive, and thus gave the Bulls their biggest win of the season. After the game, the Bulls were all smiles, but the biggest one was worn by Esposito. “Talk about hustle, those guys were fantastic,” he said. “What a win! If we had played like this against Canisius, it would have been no contest.” Esposito was unhappy with the against performance team’s Canisius. He promised at that time, that the team was going to spend the next day doing passing drills. But Kubicki pointed out “That wasn’t all we did. We practiced this kamikaze drill where two of us ran into each other and tried to head the ball.” Both of these drills paid off for the Bulls against McMaster. Reflecting game, on . the Esposito stated, “I hope 1 shook up a lot of people today. I started some new people and they did the job. But all the guys 1 put in played very well. Everyone was. Friday, the soccer Bulls defeated McMaster University, and the star of the game was freshman goalie Bill Gleason. The flow of superlatives to describe his play soon became inadequate, as he made save after sparkling save. Gleason stopped twenty-one shots against McMaster, just two days after he had held Canisius to one goal in a game that went into overtime, and McMaster coach Frank Donlavey credited Gleason with stopping seven goals. Because of all that, Gleason is The Spectrum's Athlete-of-the-Week. trying to prove something today, continued, “he’s just unreal.” In and they did. Yesterday I talked four games this year, Gleason has hustle and passing, and today, played his heart out, and has they proved that they really come away, the talk of the team. wanted it by executing those McMaster coach Frank things.” Commenting on Donlavey had nothing but praise Daddario, the man who scored tor several of the Bulls. “I still both goals, Esposito said, “We call cannot believe that your goalie is him the garbage man. He picks only a freshman. He was very everything up that nobody wants fortunate on many plays, but he and he works with it.” robbed us of at least seven goals. Also, your number five (Karrer) is the best all-around player that I Heaps of praise have seen. He has true natural ability.” Donlavey, who also plays Then with a pause, Esposito spoke of his star goalie, Gleason, for the New York Cosmos, also who stopped twenty-one shots. commented that, “last week we Ohio State and they do played of the. 1 MVP pick had to the “If not compare to your program game, it would have to be Billy,” smiled Esposito.

Ford-Car er clash of issues, not personalities likely to continue as a target of Republican attack. The topics of energy policy, government reorganization and the Nixon pardon also The first of the great Carter-Ford Unemployment and inflation Carter seemed to score the heaviest debates emerged, happily as a contest of the issues, not of image or personality. against Ford On the issues of inflation and Jimmy Carter even seemed willing to unemployment, which polls show are subdue his smile to the cause of forensic uppermost in voters’ minds. The Georgian confrontation. In the end, neither emphasized that the unemployment rate was the highest since the Depression and candidate overwhelmed the other. sounded what appears to be an important Indeed, as one of the post-debate campaign theme for the Democrats: the may out, network analyses pointed both have accomplished their objectives: Ford Ford Administration’s lack of compassion for the average working person. Indeed, composure and to show a certain self-assurance in his job, Carter in showing ,Fdrd may have lent credence to that charge that he is “in the same ballpark” as the by repeatedly espousing in the debate the incumbent. It seems to me, however, that usual Republican approach of solving Carter’s performance may mark an economic problems by giving breaks to important turning point in his recently business. Carter may have struck a chord with conservative voters by calling Ford’s a lagging campaign. “welfare administration” instead of a Both candidates were cool throughout the debate, although Carter seemed a little “work administration.” Additionally, Ford nervous and his answers a little shaky in failed to refute Carter’s claim that his the early minutes. As the debate progressed administration -c>which has made whipping the issues of tax reform, inflation, and inflation the cornerstone of its economic has experienced the highest policy unemployment took the limelight. The tax issue was one on which Carter seemed inflation rate in 50 years. Carter also likely to be vulnerable in light of his scored the last eight years of Republican much-discussed AP interview last week-end rule as being responsible for higher budget when he allegedly suggested raising the deficits than •'in the Kennedy-Johnson taxes of half of the population. I don’t period. Ford seemed effective, however, at believe that Carter was damaged much by this, however, as Ford, though he casting doubt about how Carter could get mentioned it, didn’t hit it as hard as I the money to pay for the programs called for in the Democratic platform and still thought he would. to turn the tax balance the budget. He was right in Moreover, Carter seemed Carter’s reliance on a argument against Ford by calling attention questioning to his tax hike proposals in the early projection by the Congressional Budget months of his presidency and to his recent Committee that a $60, billion budget plans which, while purporting to lessen the surplus would be available for him to work tax burden, merely, according to Carter, with by 1981. Ford, though, was not shifted it by raising payroll taxes. specific when asked how he would get the Carter’s appeal for tax reform was money to finance his own recently clearly a populist one. The vagueness of his announced initiatives in employment, specific proposals remained, however, and health, recreation and other areas. physicist, perhaps took cues from Ralph Nader by stressing the potential dangers Of nuclear energy development and calling for a shift to coal. Ford proposed incentives to business for research and development. by Stephen M. Krason Special to The Spectrum seem — came up. On energy, Carter, the nuclear Neither candidate mentioned what may be the most important question in domestic energy policy; how to curtail the economic power of the big oil companies. Carter continued to stress government reorganization, his pet policy concern; without making it clear how or if it would save money. Ford succeeded in throwing into question the benefits derived from Carter’s reorganization accomplishments in Georgia, although he did not impress by underscoring his own success in cutting the size of the White. House staff. While smaller than in the Nixon years, it is still larger than that of any other president before him. Ford clumsily handled a question about reconciling the Nixon pardon with his treatment of Vietnam draft evaders. His comments seemed to indicate a harder line than in the days of his “conditional” amnesty program. Carter, reflecting what I believe to be a questionable pattern he has set for his campaign, did not seize upon the issue of the Nixon pardon. One other strange issue which Ford brought up in the debate is what he perceives to be the dangers of one party controlling both the presidency and the Congress. This may become standard Republican rhetoric in the future as the party seems to have resigned itself to permanent minority status in Congress. It ignores, however, the fact that through most of this century we have had one party controlling both and the Republic is still surviving. Carter prudently countered Ford on this issue by saying that divided government means stalmated government. Carter gains advantage I believe that, on balance,"Cirter had the edge in the debate because he succeeded in getting himself out of his recent embarrassing predicaments long enough to focus attention oh the Ford record for the first time. Now Ford will be at least somewhat on the defensive. Carter succeeded in accomplishing this without having had to become so much of a partisan aggressor that he was forced to concede his desired role of a somewhat non-partisan unifier. Indeed, he tried to play both roles on Thursday evening. Moreover, the debate seems to have rebutted the charge of Carter’s vagueness on the issues. Time and again he outshone Ford on the specifics and gave more well thought out answers. If the electorate does not reflect these views about the debate right away,. I believe it will with a little reflection. At any rate, the battleground for the rest of the campaign seems to be set. The respective strategies were underscored in the closing speeches of the candidates. Ford will attack Carter as a partisan and will try to link him with the “big spending” Democratic Congress. Carter, his will reemphasize meanwhile, non-Washington credentials and will try to place himself above the partisan frey. The second debate now looms as very crucial because it deals with foreign policy, an area in which Carter admittedly has less expertise than President Ford and in which he will be even more hard-pressed to prove that he is on the same level as the incumbent.

Faculty representitives will come from the probably Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), Admissions and Records, and other related divisions of the University. While no deadline has been established for the committee Senate Faculty report, Chariman Johnathan Reichert hopes this will be done as quickly as possible. Although he declined to speculate on what the actual might committee report reccommend, Reichert said the idea for the committee was generated by the administrations’ concern that “too many borderline students were hanging on”. Under the present system students with poor grades have little trouble remaining in the University he explained. There was also concern that the current procedure was too ambiguous to be effective.

Seven hundred and seventy-five students voted no opinion on the question. Schwartz felt the results from this question were particularly unclear because of the number of no opinion responses. The question of whether to bring back intercollegiate football on campus was passed by the narrow margin of 129 votes, 1053 to 924 with 449 students voting no opinion. Student approved a program calling for football to initially return on the club level with funding “to come either from cutting back the existing athletic program or a raise in the mandatory fee.” The four course load, which faces evaluation again this year, was supported in its present form, 1571 votes to 292.

Blumberg was acting Treasurer since • mid-August. In a bitterly contested election for student representative to the College Council, David Brownstein was the winner with 682 votes to 505 for William Finkelstein and 400 for Stuart Mack.

Enrollment cuts, tuition hikes, faculty layoffs and sheared services leave a bleak outlook for students and colleges. One of the hardest hit in the recent slashings is the City University of New York (CUNY). CUNY was unique in that the huge urban system enabled virtually any New York City resident who wanted a college education to get one. But now, under crushing financial blows that is all disappearing. Gone is the 1.29 year-old tradition of free tuition, Gone is the policy of open admissions to any high school graduate. And, due to the massive budget cuts imposed by both the city and state, gone are more than 1800 full-time professors and more than 32,000 students. That figure may soon reach 50,000, say university officials. CUNY, the only university system within a city, will remain the third largest system in the country, but under a much tightened belt. Massive cuts have been hitting CUNY since 1973, and this year the university finds itself $28 million shorter than last year. The imposition of a tuition fee has more than doubled the students’ expenses, with stricter financial aid guidelines forcing many to come to tough decisions regarding their education. Adding to this frustration, students face larger classes, fewer courses and sharp cutbacks in supportive services, counseling and tutoring. The cuts are “horribly cannibalistic,” complained one CUNY official. There has not been much student reaction to the increase in cutbacks so far this semester, according to Maynard Jones, outspoken chairman of the CUNY student senate. Jones, who once described the tuition-imposing bureaucrats as the governor’s “stooges,” called the students a “strange breed, not willing to put up a fight.” Ford said he would cut back to balance the budget, but added later that rush of cutbacks is useless, while others “don’t know who to fight.” This is in sharp contrast to last spring, when angered students demonstrated and some stormed the state capitol in Albany to battle the cutbacks and (CPS) to the four-course by Charles Greenberg The formation of a committee to review the criteria and procedures for the academic dismissal of students is being considered by the Executive Committee of the — ? new tuition.

In memorandums sent the the Nuclear Regularatory Commission (NRC) and the utility twelve corporation’s customers, NFS President Ralph Deutsher assessed the project as The longawaited conclusion of Frank Herbert's classic “commercially impractical in light of regulatory requirements that have arisen since the project was initiated.” The company projected it would take a minimum of a dozen years and more than $600 million in additional capital to bring the facility back intojproduction. unlucrative By venture, NFS heaves an onerous financial burden on to the lap of the State of New York, which now assume prime must responsibility for disposing of the of toxic large quantities radioactive waste left behind by Company Oil {Jetty the subsidiary. In the words of nuclear physicist and Sierra Club consultant Dr. Marvin Resnikoff, “NFS will be leaving the State of New York with a major potential health and safety hazard and a tremendous financial liability of up to $480 million. Wastes A 600 jhousand gallon steel high-level of liqud tank radioactive waste, a fifteen acre burial ground of solid low-level rubbish and another 12,000 gallon tank of acidic high level waste presently inhabit the doomed West Valley site, thirty miles south of Buffalo. In addition, 200 metric tons of spent reactor fuel are sitting in the facility, awaiting a reprocessing that is never to occur. The 200 tons of uranium just exacerbate the safety hazard, indicated Resnikoff. The steel carbon tanks holding this high level liquid waste are designed to only last about forty years while the lethal fluid contained within will sustain levels of dangerously high radioactivity for hundreds of thousands of years. “These contaminants cannot be released into the environment under any stressed circumstances,” Resnikoff. “They pose long term health and safety risks to the residents of the area and to the fish, wildlife and human users of Lake Erie and Lake Ontario.” Yet NFS has candidly admitted that the tanks are vulnerable to rupture from sabotage or major earthquakes. Potential catastrophe If there were to be a leak at the facility, radioactive wastes cOuld enter Lake Erie via adjoining Cattaraugus • Creek. Even if just one percent ot the high level wastes were to escape, a grave 'health catasrophe would result, Resnikoff predicted. It is likely that a leak of this magnitude would contaminate the Buffalo City watgr supply. Ingesting this water or the fish which swam in it could induce cancer or birth defects. A case for the detoxification DUNE TRILOGY 6th LARGE PRINTING $8.95 'Hartford Couranl Also available—the first two DUNE novels. and removal of these wastes is plain. NRC regulations demand the solidification and removal of all West Valley high level liquid waste to a federal depository within a period of five years. This plan, however, is not the least bit feasible. First of all, there is no in repository such federal existence at the present time, and secondly, the technology required for solidifying such a awesome amount of material is not at hand. It has been accomplished* on a limited laboratory level but not on a large commercial scale called for here. "At the present time,.’’ remarked Majorie Held, Director of Informational Servies for the New York State Energy Resource Agency Development' and are “there (NYSERDA), absolutely no answers to the disposal problem, but it is being investigated.” Nowhere to go An NRC report estimated that the costs of converting the waste to a cement and shipping it, off site could run as high as $480 million (which averages out ot over $30 per New York State capita). The staggering bulk of toxic garbage at the West Valley facility are the residual by-products of six years of , fuel reprocessing during which 600 metric tons of spent fuel were nuclear reactor into “burnable converted uranium and plutonium. As the commercial reprocessing only plant in the country, NFS found itself recycling sizable shipments of out-of-state reactor fuel; its closing now leaves the nuclear power industry without a single operational reprocessing plant.

But there were successes on both sides. Governor Carter, a political insurgent who was widely unknown two years ago when President Ford assumed office, has brought the President to his own level by virtue of their meeting on an an equal footing in these debates. Ford on the offensive of strictly Ford, instead lauding his own performance, has had to blast his Democratic opponent, and in so doing has sacrificed some of the power of the incumbency. But Ford has found many issues to blast, and perhaps has come out a, little better for it. Governor Carter’s record in Georgia is an anomaly, and the President brought that point home well. He also attacked Carter’s ambiguity and generality on many issues. Yet these are minor points. The typical voter did not see enough one way or the other last Thursday to. cause a major change in his opinion. In I960, when Kennedy overwhelmed Richard Nixon in the first of their debate series, all observers close to the scene knew immediately that Kennedy had scored a major Washington. / As a result of all this, the Ford people figure the president won, the Carter backers figure the Governor won, and the undecided voters can’t figure anything. It’s hard to believe that the entire country listened to the same debate. Although most of the evening’s activities were as fast moving and hardhitting as Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman, both Carter and Ford kept the audience of 100 million on its toes with occasional slings at each other. Ford, drew first blood in his opening remarks of the evening by accusing Carter of being “no more specific in this case than he has been in many other instances.” Carter parried this blow in his first rebuttal about tax reform where he referred to the present tax structure as a “disgrace” and called it a welfare program for the rich. He recalled the President’s proposals for increases for lower income groups while lowering the tax burden on corporations and special interest groups. Carter capped his remarks on the tax system of condemning the philosophy of the Republican Party as the group that piles taxes on the poor, while reducing the tax burden of the rich. enough.

The audit of the SLJNY Research Foundation said that money earned by the foundation in administering the grants is spent in a variety of “questionable" ways not connected with research. The audit indicated that the foundation established in 1963 a ‘President’s Fund” to be: used by ■ the presidents of the 30 state-operated SUNY campuses. The amount of money involved never exceeded $200 a year for club dues and travel*, However, the audit questioned the practice because, for one thing, SUNY presidents recieve an adequate- expense allowance, some reaching S300Q a year, in addition to salaries of about $45,000 annually.

She has written five books, the most talented,people. Bird claims, when actually they have only admitted people who were talented to begin with.

One of the alternatives Bird would like to see developed is an apprenticeship program, since she views learning as a continuous process. She recommends that as an incentive for hiring apprentices employers be beginners, or allowed a certain deduction on their income tax. “First you get a job, then after you get the job. you learn it.” she said. * » Crucial to know why According to Bird, it- is crucial, that a person in college knows why he or she is there. Often people go for the wrong reasons: because they wanted to get away from home, because it’s better than working or because they don’t know what else to do. “The only possible reason for you to go is if you like the stuff.” Otherwise, it is “prohibitively expensive”, she said.

App roximately'-'oO people were in attendance to hear details of upcoming projects for the year. With voter registration as its top priority, NYPIRG originally set a goal of 100,000 new voters by October 1. As of last week, the group could take credit for 15,000 to 20,000 new voters in Western New York, a figure the officialstermed “good.” NYPIRG Statewide the figure is already past 80,000 and NYPIRG now hopes to put 120,00 new voters on the statewide rolls this year. After the October 1 registration shift its NYPIRG will deadline, concentration to encouraging registered voters to obtain absentee ballots in the event that they are unable to vole in their home districts. Applications are available at the NYPIRG office in Norton Hall. Children caged Apart from obtaining maximum voter turnout , in November, NYPIRG is particularly concerned with the status of children being held in New York State institutions. The objective, according to project coordinator Ron Wainrid, is to research, expose, and eventually change the that beset youngsters incarcerated in these homes, as well as to track down and learn the condition of' those children who have been placed iri out-of-slate facilities. A primary problem in the current state setup is that children with less than critical disciplinary problems can be sent to homes by their parents. In too many cases, the children leave these homes with greater potential to commit major criminal acts. Additionally, conditions in these homes are, according to director of the National Coalition for Children’s Justice Ken Wooden,“so terrible that they defy our conditions middle-classimaginations.” NYPIRG intends to utilize extensive use of local media to publicize its findings. There have already been accusations of child abuse made in Wooden’s book, Weeping in the . , Playtime of Others.' ’ NYPIRG’s Buffalo contingent will be particularly concerned with the investigation of the close to fifty children s institutions between here and Rochester. Other projects to be undertaken by the Buffalo chapter of NYPIRG; The Buffalo unit will reinforce statewide efforts in seeking a ban on non-returnable bottles and cans. The group is urging university officials to issure such a ban, claiming that it would save energy, conserve resources, reduce litter and solid waste, increase jobs, and lower prices to consumers. Cornell University enacted such the Coca-Cola restrictions causing Company to bring unsuccessful action to ' This issue has grown rescind the move. As well as an on-campus directors.” considerably in importance following a ban, NYP1RG is seeking county and state NYPJRG funeral consumer study last year research, publicity, legislations through lobbying and petitions. NYP1RG will support bills in the stable legislature to reduce criminal penalties for the possession of small amounts of marijuana and seeks to change the definition of a sale to include only those transactions which involve a monetary profit. NYP1RG and the National Organization for the Reformation of Marijuana Laws (NORML) are the only two organizations lobbying in this state for such legislation. NYP1RG supports decriminalization rather than legalization due to the stigma that might be attached to the latter stance, as well as the need for a gradual easing of the law which would allow more extensive research into the possible dangers of the drug. A representative of NORML will speak here on October 6 and also participate in a symposium with supporters of all viewpoints the following day. NYPORG will solicit support for legislation to investigate the Educational Testing Service, which, through its SAT.LSAT.GRE, and other standardized tests has a “virtual monopoly on college aptitude testing in the United States,” according to NYPIRG. The group seeks radical changes in legislation regarding funeral arid funeral directors because, according to one spokesman, “New Yorkers are being ripped off and ripped off badly by funeral Night-life car pool Starting soon a car pool will be formed to bring all you lonely dormies out of your isolation to experience Buffalo night Hfe (yes, there is one!).

' Efforts to enlist the aid of off-campus citizens will be stepped up in order to widen NYPIRG’s base of influence. Membership in the group’s citizen lobby is $15 and entitles members to receipt of all publications and legislative alerts. NYPIRG feels that the value of nuclear energy has been exaggerated and will study nuclear power both alternatives to and the wothe of generation decommissioning (taking down) nuclear generators. A NYPIRG spokesman explained, “Uranium is not producing the amount of electricity ti was planned to Consequently, the uranium generate. supply is being depleted quicker, than expected and the price of uranium is increasing.” Depending upon student involvement in current NYPIRG projects, the group may undertake a study of what it terms “fraudulent or negligent (auto) repair practices” by gargaes in Erie County.

Instructors' salaries Dollar gap widens between the sexes The average salary for men on college and, university faculties (full-time instructional on 9-10 month contracts) rose 6.7 percent last year, while the average salary for women faculty members rose 6.1 percent The figures are part of an annual report on college and university faculty composition and salaries released by Marie D. Eldridge, Administrator of HEW’s National Center of Education Statistics (NCES). The overall difference between men and women’s salary increases is due largely to the changes at the instructor level, where men’s salaries rose 8.2 percent while women’s rose 7.2 percent, Eldridge said. “The dollar gap between men and women’s salaries is now greater than in 1974-75 at all faculty ranks,” she said. The NCES data indicate that the number of women on college and university faculties increased by 4.0 percent between 1974-75 and 1975-76. However, since the number of male faculty members also increased, the proportion of women on faculties increased only one-half of a percentage point, from 23.8 to 24.3 percent. The greatest increase in the number of women occurred at the rank of instructor, while the smallest increase occurred at the rank of professor. Although women now comprise almost one-quater of the instructional faculty, most are employed at the lower faculty ranks. The percent of women at the rank of professor decreased between 1974-75 and 1975-76. The percentage of men with tenure continues to exceed the percentage of women, except at the traditionally untenured rank of assistant professor.

The Spectrum . Monday, 27 September 1976 �Carlos Master terrorist still at large by Brett Kline Feature Editor Hitch Sanchez Ramirez is a most wanted man. Under the alias of “Carlos,” he is in fact currently sought in twelve countries, making the most wanted man in the world. Carlos, the son of a well-to-do, leftist oriented Venezuelan lawyer, is a terrorist, who is now Considered to be an important, if not major, link among extremist groups throughout the world. Yet this is all relatively new information. The unearthing of the name and person of this man, and any subsequent theories on specific international terrorist connections date back to a triple-murder in Paris on June 27, 1975. Three counterintelligence (DST) and a agents police Lebanese informer paid a casual, unarmed visit to an apartment on Rue Toullier in the Latin QOarter in a routine questioning of its inhabitant. At one point, the stranger excused himself to go to the bathroom and came out with a gun, killing two of the agents and the informer. The dead informer, a member of an Arab terrorist organization, arrested upon was recently entrance into France for his part in a bazooka attack on Orly Airport in Paris in January 1975. The information found on him considered essential in was ascertaining the group’s participation in attacks on the French Embassy in The Hague, Netherlands and at Orly. information revealed The names and addresses from which the French police derived the name Hitch Sanchez Ramirez. In search of Carlos, the DST went to one of these addresses in Paris but found only an arsenal providing a mountain of clues. There were also four false passports, each with the same puffy-faced, of a picture dark-haired young man with a soft mouth, a round chin and widte set, intense dark eyes. Subsequent findings gradually brought to light a web of international terrorism amongst extremist groups of Palestinians, Germans, Japanese, Turks and others. Connections were made between a series of bombings and attacks in several countries over the last few ye?rs. The arsenal included American grenades marked U.S. 26, the type that had been stolen from an American base at Mesau in West Germany, allegedly by members of the Baader-Meinhotf gang. The same type of grenade was used by -three terrorists of the Japanese “Red Army,” supporters of Palestinian guerrillas, when attacked the French they in The Embassy Hague on September 13, 1974. It was also the same type of grenade used in an attack on the fashionable drugstore at St. Germain des Pres in Paris on September 15, 1975, in which three persons were killed and 22 wounded. were also transistor radios, the same model as was found in a villa near Paris where ten members of a Turkish terrorist group were arrested by the DST on December 25, 1973. No investigation by the DST ever received as much publicity as that of the murders on Rue Toullier. French authorities described the Carlos affair as “one of the cases of important most international terrorism to come to the attention of any Western police in recent years.” Ministry Interior An spokesman said the affair had exposed “close links between the terrorist networks and certain foreign intelligence services.” This remark was explained a short time when the French later the Government announced expulsion of three high-ranking Cuban diplomats and named a fourth Cuban attached to the embassy in London as a link to Pick up your Minolta and look through the finder.

He made the decisions and operational dispensed the money necessary and their preparation for execution, it said. Carlos merely followed his orders. The paper continued that, Scotland Yard, according to Carlos and companion Antonio Dage Bouvier were part of a group charged with committing crimes against certain Jewish people. The two men had been seen in London several times since the and were incident, murder two occupying apartments in the western part of according to city, the Commissioner Ray Habefshon. momentarily Le Monde stated that French police as well as other Western police forces had for a long time known of liasons between terrorist groups in different countries. Times, York The JYew however, said the discovery of Carlos seemed to specify the nature of the link and identify Paris as an organizational center for all terrorist activities, much to the chagrin of French authorities. . Communications established extremists have Some established communications with ethnic separatist groups all over Europe. In 1974, delegations from many such movements, some inclined toward violence and cultural and others strictly - political, convened secretly in Trieste, Italy. In attendance were Croats and Bretons, Irish and Welsh, Flemings’ and Frisians, Corsicans and Basques. Western intelligence sources believe that most of the discussion at Triests was on a theoretical level, but that recognized terrorist organizations did send representatives, Carlos has been linked to more recent terrorist incidents. On June 27, one year to the day after the triple murder in the Latin Quarter, hijackers boarded an Air France airliner in Athens. When Israeli . commandoes raided the airport and rescued the hostages, the two Germans were among’ those hijackers killed in the fierce fighting. Well known anarchist According to Israeli sources, one was a well-known anarchist named Wilfred Boses. He had been arrested for questioning about the Latin Quarter murders in Paris in June 1975 but was released after two days. He was .then arrested in West Germany and again released, were but his \yhereabouts unknown until he turned up on the Air France flight. The sources said that another foreigner active with the Popular Front and also linked to Carlos was at Entebbe during the operation. He was identified as Antonio Degas Bouvier, a South American, who had reportedly been seen with Carlos in London police by' Scotland Yard immediately after the Latin Quarter shootings. He might have an accompanied Carlos- in attempted assassination in 1973 of Joseph Edward Sieff, president of Marks and Spencer, the British Newsweek chain, retail conjectured.

MOSTLY AMP mow me » The referendum vote ; It was with more than just passing interest we noted that about 850 more students cast ballots in the Student Association (SA) referendum than voted in the election to fill the several vacant SA offices. Ironically, the referendum was originally conceived as a secondary feature of last week's three day election; the voting students gave the referendum M)P TWO) W/ AMP Kft5 MOSTLY greater attention, and have therefore made it the focus of ports. ours. It suggests, once again, that the few students who vote OF TV 5HCUS are more interested in individual issues and policies than the 1H6Y couweep cgetv student government officers who (in theory) carry them out. Our analysis of the vote on the four referendum questions follows. 1) Students voted in the affirmative, though by a small margin, that it would be worth the sacrifices to renew intercollegiate football. In a way, this vote reminds us of how acutely certain students must feel the rampant apathy and spiritlessness at this University. The death of political involvement now casts a kinder light on the innocent joys of college football. There is really no reason in the world to oppose such a project, still so far from even its initial stages. mop Pew Later, if the football revivalists on campus take the THEW W/ TO*' opportunity handed them by this vote seriously, practical stces <3F decisions will have to be made about which existing KX&wmeeQ Aaaasssiofj. programs should be cut, and how much the student activity fee will be raised. Until that time, there is much work to be done, if this vote is taken seriously. 2) The 1059 students who voted support for a fractionalized, plus/minus grading system delivered the greatest surprise of the referendum. Fractionalized grades were last debated by the Faculty-Senate in 1973. They offer increased grading accuracy, and clearer delineations between students in a class. They also tend, however, to heighten the competitive nature of grades, and this is something we caution against. But if the outcome of the referendum is a 10HICH 36CAH5 (jO(U?LX reliable indication of which system students here prefer, fractionalized grading is the system which the student 90PULM dccAuse vtcvis government on principle should support. coon? &n? umioe 3) Any impetus which the vote on Social Sciences They lmtbp turo them. College may have lent to efforts to have the College reinstated were partially muted by the astonishing size of the no opninion vote (775). Otherwise, the show of support from students who did voice an opinion was substantial (890 voted in favor of initiating action to reinstate the College; 233 approved of the shutodwn). The lesson here is that so far, efforts by supporters of the College to educate the students to the political importance of the College's dissolution have failed. There is only a short time remaining before the memory of, a Collegiate unit devoted to political economy and Marxism, settles too far back in the collective student consciousness to ever be recalled. 4) The overwhelming support shown in the vote for the four-course load, and the present system of contact/credit hours, was predictable. The vote, though, in no way ensures the indestructability of the present system it is likely that this year the four-course load will meet its strongest challenge of its nine-year history.

Since the average citizen has been shackled during the last seven years under the weight of ominous price-increases, one question, above all, abounds: What does such a contention, when translated into simple English, rigorous The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. of inflation John Reiss The Spectrum is served by the College Press Service, Field Newspaper Syndicate, Los Angeles Times Syndicate, and New Republic Feature Syndicate.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. actually mean? To answer this question, it is necessary, however, to take a closer look at this political epithet relative to the context in which it appears; for since every one is against one kind of inflation or another, only an examination of this term's context can render its meaning unambiguously clear. Whenever the Democratic Congress attempts to transfer a larger share of the budget or national product to a category other than the direct subsidy of private enterprise, this Administration reacts by terming such legislation “inflationary," and moreover, in many instances proceeds to veto it. The question, of course, arises: inflationary relative to what? Relative to the cost of existence incurred by the average workingman? By the average consumer? By the average independent entrepreneur? By the average corporate unit of business organization? The answer now becomes obvious. Since the amount of taxes contributed by the average citizen is reaching its relative limit, increased spending or redirection of budget priorities can only be effected by increasing the costs of existence devolving upon benefits exceed the costs. When to its thinking however, the costs exceed the benefits, it or its political representatives react by claiming that such an impending Act of Congress is “inflationary,’’.and if enacted, will overstimulate the economy. But increased corporate support of the Federal Government, be it direct or indirect, does not necessarily entail higher prices; for relative to appropriate governmental policies, it could just as easily entail deflated prices and diminished rates of profit. But since corporate prides and profits are still relatively unregulated, still relatively subject to the sway of free the present market forces, Administration’s use of the epithet, “inflationary,” possesses a dual significance: for on the one hand, its mere appearance is supposed to evoke a negative emotional reaction to any measure so labelled; while on the other, its cognitive content, in the form of an implicit threat, is simply this: the conservative sector of corporate America intends to respond to all such Acts of Congress by increasing its prices as a means of compensating for its increased governmental costs and that, above all, is why such acts are going to be inflationary. Although one may agree or disagree with such a conservative governmental policy, this, in any event, constitutes the meaning of the term, inflationary, at least as employed by the present Administration. — David Stive ’age eight . The Spectrum . Monday, 27 September 1976 �Capitalism camouflaged To the. Editor. There are many times in philosophy class when I really Teel proud to be in an education system that actively encourages free thought, as well as many classes of the social sciences. However recent readings in my Geography of Systems textbook has caused me to realize the pervasive influence of the capitalist system in our universities. I realize that once one becomes immersed in a nation’s system (including institutions such as College) one has in effect accepted them no matter how much dissatisfaction one may voice. I am no exception and I try not to take advantage of the cynical atmosphere that college may offer. My Geography textbook (co-authored, by the chairman of the Geography Dept, at this school) is replete with vagueness, incomplete suggestions, contradictions, cheap shots at communism, and justifications for American imperialism. Two examples will illustrate: When speaking of population the text opposes — is the fault of the economic system and not population growth. It also says that it is the type of economy that is responsible for progfess, but then says it is population growth and not the economy that is responsible for poverty! The positive and negative connotations are clear. The citing of American progress is a justification for capitalism, but poverty Karl Marx’s contention that poverty is blamed on the victims and not the economic system. '■ —Technology and economic conditions are of course interrelated as the text shows. When speaking of future energy resources the text spends many pages advocating nuclear power plants, but then has two sentences on solar energy saying that the technology for its use “appears to be far into the future.” It makes this stand obviously because solar energy is not profitable since no corporation can own it. Thus when available technology is not used or improved, “natural” limits cannot be blamed; we are imposing our own limits. The text as well as the government realizes that the U.S. cannot expect to indefinitely consume 50 percent of the world’s resources. When discussing population ekplosions in poor nations they should admit that this fact is the main impetus behind population awareness rather than showing charts and graphs to justify the “Limits to Growth” study, which iiicidently was sponsored by European businessmen. textbooks must appear without I guess subjectivity or political overtones because then they would have no “scientific” basis, thus providing no distinguishing factor between different disciplines. However, students become more incensed when capitalist propaganda is camoflauged by “scientific analysis” rather than clearly alluded to. Marc Sherman A trial not a lynching To the Editor. Your recent “Ken Johnson strives for not guilty Verdict” article was not entirely accurate. Please note that: 1) According to local papers at the time of the arrest, only two officers were sent to arrest Johnson, in hopes of avoiding a scene. When officers confronted him in a hallway of the Mental Health Center,, discovered his identity, and placed him under arrest, he allegedly resisted and shouted words to the effect, “hey man, they’re trying to roust me.” Center employees rushed to his aid, and some physical exchanges occurred between the police officers and the crowd before they were able to take the suspect into an elevator. Backup police crews were called from the elevator to enable the suspect to be taken from the building. The arresting officers were carfying pistols; standard equipment for almost all policemen; 2) While many black males answering the general description of the rapist may have been Coop endorsement questioned, it was the publication of a composite sketch in both the morning and evening papers that prompted calls from Buffalo General Hospital employees that it closely resembled an led to employee at the Mental Health Center. numerous the arrest; 3) Two of the rape victims pointed him out as their attacker from a polic-e lineup; 4) Your article was seriously flawed for failing to point this out. Furthermore, they testified to that effect under oath during a hearing and before the Erie'County Grand Jury. The complexion of the case changes therefore, to a situation where the Word of two rape victims will be weighed against the defendant’s and his alibi witnesses’. By law Kenneth Johnson is innocent unless proven guilty. The burden of proof rests with the District Attorney, and the verdict will be rendered by a jury. Let’s treat this case, therefore, as it really is, a rape trial, not a lynching. “Concerned with the truth" To the Hditor. On Wednesday, 9/22, the members of the Record Coop posted the names of their “endorsed candidates” on the outer door of the Coop. I question their right to do so, as well as the validity of • these endorsements. An SA Club chartered as a record-selling service, in my opinion, is not a proper forum for partisan involvement. More importantly is the manner in which the Coop made their “endorsements.” No opposing candidates were ever asked for statements or given interviews. The for their Spectrum came under criticism elections; in last elections year’s SA endorsements in which candidates were given opportunities to express their views. This situation far surpasses the capriciousness of those endorsements. It’s also important to point out the fact that this year, in this election, th Coop has chosen to endorse candidates. Could this be because one of the endorsed candidates works there? I think so. The Coop has done a quite admirable job at selling records. They’ve done a pretty rotten job selling candidates. David K. Brownstein Vui’ ad To the Editor I was very saddened to read the letters written the acceptance of advertising by The Spectrum from “Oui” magazine. 1 think the wrong attitude was taken by these people. No mention was made of the fact that the advertising was in fact subsidizing the funding of The Spectrum and thus saving e-ach and every student mandatory fee money. If Hugh Heffner wants to pay for The Spectrum why To should the editorial board of Spectrum stop him? WAS NOT advertising that is the fact the be noted also, the cover could be seen at any OBSCENE newsstand! As someone who has been fighting for The Spectrum to accept as many ads as they can get (a similar occurence happened last year with The Spectrum's refusal to accept military ads). I am surprised that these “letter writers” do not see that in effect the ads lift a financial burden from The Spectrum and thus from the student body! about - Bill Finkelstein Former Publications Division Director for Sub-Board I, Inc.

Bullpen the paper tor on-campus publicity, will make its tall debut on Thursday, if things go according to-plan. Its editor, Larry Amoros, was worried about possible competition between The Spectrum's sports staff, and Bullpen, as happened often last year when Bullpen was run by Dave Hnath. However, since this year the staffs of the two overlap, there is not much possibility of that happening again. Amoros does have a problem in that his deadline for Thursday issues is Monday, so he cannot cover anything that happens in the three days between. (By the way; if you want to write for Bullpen, call Amoros at 6364406.) There is no truth to the rumor that Amoros plans to write a gossip column called “Amorous Amoros.” It is true, however, that Amoros is the only person in whose honor a tree was once unearthed in Israel.

That meant, at the end of the season, you could have thirteen holes in your LD. card.

The hockey Bulls will enter a new conference next year, which includes Brockport, Cortland, Elmira, Geneseo, Oswego, RIT, Plattsburgh and Potsdam. The Bulls hope to cut down their travel costs, since many of the teams are in the Western New York area. Buffalo hockey coach Ed Wright was elected vice president of the new league. The Bulls have a new trainer, Don Cielewich, succeeding Mike Reilly. Cielewich served on the training staff of the Buffalo Bills last year and during the pre-season this year.

Roger Maris in In their first home match of the season, the women’s tennis squad remained Buffalo’s only undefeated team with a crushing 6-1 win over St. Bonaventure. The match, which was originally scheduled for the Ellicott tennis courts, was moved to the Bubble because of the poor weather Thursday afternoon. The day before, Buffalo had squeaked by Fredonia with a 4-3 win. In the most exciting match of the day, Buffalo’s first singles player F.laine Tubinis defeated Mimi McDonald, 6-4, 6-3. McDonald kept rushing the net, and Tubinis took advantage by continually lobbing the ball over her head. Coach Betty Dimmick thought Tubinis played her best match ol the season. “You could see her (Tubinis’) thought process work,” commented Dimmick,” she really moved her opponent around. Tubinis was especially happy about the St. Bonaventure match in view of her frustrating defeat the day before. “The wind was a big factor yesterday,” she said, “I lost a lot of drop shots because of the wind.” Strong duo The otjier outstanding performance in the match was supplied by the Buffers first doubles team. Joanne Wroblewski and Mary Jo Scire won their second straight match with a 6-3, 6-1 win over the Bonnies’ Anita Broderick and Kate Scholl. Scire, a four-year veteran of the team, plays the net well, while Wroblewski has a strong serve. Together, Dimmick calls them, “our best hope at the state championships.” In other matches, third singles player Carol Waddell of Buffalo defeated her opponent, Mary Lynn. After losing the first set, 0-6, Waddell fought back to win the next two sets, 7-5 and 64. In the fourth singles match, Buffalo’s Kathy Ryan easily defeated Cathy Finneran, 6-3, 6-1. “She runs a lot,” said Dimmick, describing Ryan, a freshman, “she’s all over the court.” April Zolczer beat Kay Hoffman 64, 64 and the second doubles team ofKaren Weimer and Amy Miller defeated Faith Gavin and Pattie McKenna to round out Buffalo’s wins for the day The only loss of the day for Buffalo was in the second singles match, where Sharon Ackerman lost to St. Bonaventure’s Barb Maddi, 6-0, 6-2. Dimmick still has high hopes for Ackerman. “She’s got some things to work on, but she does have a great ground stroke,” declared $ Dimmick. 1 ■ With the combination of experience and talented younger.players, Dimmick is confident about thd rest of the season.

The implications for this campus are as yet lear, but Administration officials here have ified that the University is currently undergoing an evaluation of the four-course load and the four credit hour/three contact hour system, in order to decide a plan of action that President Robert Ketter has promised to reach by September 1977. The University has been contemplating several alternatives since the matQorapdum was issued. As of now, it appears likely that the Administration will pursue one of several choices; —it can alter the crediting policy so that the majority of courses grant three credit hours for three contact hours, thus initiating reinstatement of the five-course load that existed here before 1968. -it can continue the four-course load by having the regular 50-minute classes meet four times a week, as opposed to three. —it can reach a compromise, whereby certain upper-level courses will be worth four credits, while most lower level courses would offer three credits. According to Claude Welch, Associate Vice State Uni' lity of New Y Motives Although it is unclear, a variety of forces appear to be behind the Bearing memorandum. An assistant to the Vice Chancellor for Academic Programs said that discrepancies found by SUNY Central Administration in several campuses’ Course and Section Analysis (CASA), which is a list and description of all courses, provided the motivations behind the official definition of the Carnegie Unit, The SUNY official declined to state which campuses were involved. Other University officials have indicated that financial considerations were partially responsible, Ketter and Acting President Albert Somit are defending the University’s budget before the Division of the Budget this week. Credit hours are a substantial factor in the determinatiori of each campus’ budget. Individual campus budgets are greatly influenced by the number of credit hours allotted for each course. A school that uses the four credit hour system, can feasibly be attributed 25 percent more full-time equivalents (a measure of the faculty-student ratio) than a three credit hour school, and therefore could be appropriated more ' . money. English Dept move is goodfor morale by Harvey Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer The recent move of the English Department from Annex A and Annex B on the Main Street Campus to Samuel Clemens Hall on the Amherst CampuS, has generated a pioneer spirit among the faculty. Since only four undergraduate English classes are being taught in Clemens this semester, instructors will commute from Amherst to Main Street where the majority of classes are scheduled. In addition to the English Department, Clemens Hall houses the Spanish, Italian and Portuguese, French, Germanic and Slavic, Classics, and Comparative Literature Departments, and the Arts and Letters Provost Office. The ten-story structure has classroom and lab space for 2600 students and 200 faculty. Named for the famous American writer Samuel Celmens (Mark Twain), the building stands on the eastern tip of the academic spine of the Amherst Campus. Seatmg shortage There are not any seats in many of the classrooms. According to Assistant Vice President for Facilities Planning Dr. John A. Neal, the money needed to purchase the quipment is frozen at this time. The shortage of equipment at Clemens is not as severe as it was when the Ellicott Complex opened, but Neal hopes that the funds for equipment will arrive early enough for the spring semester. Neal warned that many of the classrooms are not large enough to accommodate crowded English classes. A solution to the problem suggested by Associate Professor Neil Schmitz, was that more English classes be taught at Ellicott. Many faculty members took the move to Clemens in stride. “We better love it because we are here,” said Schmitz. “Of course, it is an inconvenience,” he continued. Faculty offices on one campus and classes on another will hurt students more than faculty, he added. One disgruntled student left Clemens With a sour impression. The student was upset about the hour and one half round-trip to Clemens to “just pick up an assignment.” , Lonely hearts despair no longer, the National Singles Register it now within easy walking distance of the Main Street campus.

According to Brietwieser, “Many of the students live in Ellicott or Governors and an office in Clemens is very convenient for them.” Another graduate student does not share Brietwieser’s opinion about the move. He cites poor food service facilities and an inadequate bookstore. Presently there is only a cash line at Baldy Hall and a bookstore that caters only to the needs of law students. A common complaint of faculty and students were the lack of buses to Clemens. Many though it unfair that they have to take an Ellicott or Governors express bus and transfer to the Amherst shuttle bus. There is a general feeling the problems will soon be “ironed out. �•* T 200improperly registered on ID card registration line voter registration forms on the ID card voter registration line in Norton Hall are not properly registered to vote. Many pf the forms turned in on the ID line were either filled in incorrectly or incompletely according to New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) Student Registration Coordinator Allen Greenberg. The on-line registration was supervised by the Student Association ($A) and Student Association of the State University (SASU) in conjunction with AFL-CIO. According to Greenberg, not only were the people working at the registration desk poorly trained in yoter registration procedure, they were also harried because they were understaffed. Students were turning in completed forms and Y eracaris named head of Sociology , Editor’s note: Following is a list of the names of students whose voter registration has not been processed because they may incorrectly have or incom'pletely filled out their voter registration form at the I.D. line in Norton Hall. All students whose names appear here should to to the Student, Association office in 205 Norton Hall as soon as possible. To focus attention on this and define the problems, the Sociology Department, in conjunction with departments of Anthropology, Political Science, Economics and Psychology, plans a colloquim early next year. The seminar will feature national and international social scientists who will address themselves to the future of the Political Sciences. As far as the job market for the sociologist is concerned, Yeracaris feels confident that despite the dire predictions of the pessimists, it is still very open. He said that many facets of applied sociology will become more important as society • becomes more aware of environmental and social impact caused by advancing technology. A native of Crete, Yeracaris was active in the underground army in Greece during World War II. He played as a violinist in the National Orchestra of Athens to pay his way through school. The professor of Sociology holds degrees from the University of Athens and the University of Chicago. He joined the SUNY at Buffalo faculty in 1949.

To avoid any future problems Albright, Randy Job market open “My major concern is to involve the faculty of the department, as well as the administration of the University, to develop a cogent plan for future growth and development. One of the most challenging aspects of the Sociology program, as is true of many other graduate programs, is the shrinking market ability of degrees anticipated by 1985,” he said. l added. Abatemarco, Michael Addeo, Carol Ahearn, Mary Atken, Michael Constantine Yeracaris has been named' Chairman of the University’s Department of Sociology. He will step down as the department’s graduate studies director to assume the position, effective this month. “The Department of Sociology experienced a major growth period during the 60’s and the beginning of the 70’s, gradually becoming one of the strong sociology departments in the U.S. for both undergraduate programs,” Yeracaris said, commenting on his and primarily recent department’s changes. He is confident that the effects of the recent budget cuts will be offset by long-range plans, beginning with the incorporation of the administration in his, and other departments. :••• leaving before they were examined by the desk personnel to see if they were acceptable, he Approximately 200 students who tilled-out 1 \ .

Kling tentatively agreed to this arrangement final pending among the GSEU agreement Executive Committee. contacted However, Somit, in Albany where he is attending budget hearings, indicated he did not plan to meet with GSEU officials. .Somit said he had iriquired of officials at SUNY Central Administration about the appropriateness of the meeting, and had been instructed not to rhfcet with GSEU representatives because it may prejudice GSEU’s hearing before the Public Employees Relations Board, scheduled to take place today. yesterday morning by telephone —continued on page 18— New chief expresses hope despite College’s low budget " Dr. Lawrence Zimmerman, assistant to' the Dean of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, has been appointed Chief Administrative Officer of the College of Urban Studies (CUS). He succeeds Dr. Lawrence Passwell in this post. Zimmerman explained that his interest in urban affairs stems from his experiences with VISTA and the Teacher Corps of Volunteers. After receiving a BA in English Literature from the University of Florida at Gainsville and an MS in Urban Education and Curriculum Development from the University of Nebraska at Omaha, he joined VISTA in 1967. While serving with VISTA in Lincoln County, Nebraska, and later with the Teacher Corps of Volunteers in Omaha, he came to believe the contemporary urban environment was a primary cause of many social problems connected with the economically disadvantages. This led to his earning Master of Architecture and Doctor of Jurisprudence degrees, both at this University. The College of Urban Studies, he explained, formed as a result of the merging of College Z which was concerned with the criminal justice system, and C.P. Snow College, which dealt with the technical aspects of urban planning. CUS’s purpose is to acquaint students involved in urban affairs with the practical approach to work in these areas. Courses offered by CUS include workshops and opportunities for actual field work, as well as The courses. and background introductory of working instructional staff is composed professionals from the fields ot law, law transportation, city government, public interest and research groups and university faculty. Zimmerman said he would like to see CUS become a more integral part of the University system by making the study of urban affairs more . interdisciplinary. Zimmerman’s opinion is that the students would greatly benefit by a program which would supplement the traditional theoretical knowledge taught in the University with practical knowledge and experience gained through CUS courses. This would serve to make the University theory of urban studies more relevant by showing how it can be applied, while giving those entrusted with implementing programs a better knowledge of their enforcement, Library Sciences . theoretical background. Currently, CUS operates on a shoestring budget and is kept alive primarily because of the efforts ot student body, an enthusiastic faculty and reported. Zimmerman The reduction of funds allocated to the various Colleges disproportionately affected CUS, he said. To rectify this, Zimmerman feels that the issues involving the Colleges in general must be brought out must in the open, and that the University authorities useful serves a truly decide which, of the Colleges purpose. If this is done, Zimmerman is confident CUS by will prove its worth, for it is the only vehicle their apply affairs can which students of urban knowledge and talents and learn what the real world -J° n Lines of urban affairs is all about. deadline Voter registrationpermanent resident of Erie County call the Erie County Board of If you are a the location of your polling place.

For additional information , Seminars to discuss library improvement The School of Information and Library Science (SILS) at is offering a series of seminars concerning the of services for minorities; Issues relevant to library improvement women activists, racial minorities, gays and other groups will be discussed. At a seminar given on Wednesday, several faculty and student members explained the goals of the S1LS seminar committee. Graduate student Leslie Effman said that two major goals of SILS are to make the public more aware of the services offered by libraries and to dispel traditional views concerning both libraries and librarians. “If you ask most people, they will say that a library is simply a place for books,” said Don Wechter, an SILS student. “We want to change that image.” Faculty member John Ellison described SILS students as “the new librarians,” and the ideal library as an active community center, “not a warehouse operation.” SILS student Mary Marcuso depicts the University library as a central distributor of information, and the librarian as a vital consultant to all other departments. Amherst’s Bell Hall Avant-Garde curricula Ellison said that the seminars should cause a “consciousness raising which will bring about some curriculum changes.” He added that he views the current curriculum as being overly traditional, although it is ‘one of the most advanced, avant-garde curricula,” compared to those of other schools. “This school is more responsive than most,” said SILS student Don Barrett, “We have not received any flack for bringing up gay issues, The SILS curriculum stresses the importance of understanding the library user’s individual situation. SILS produces videotapes demonstrating problems one encounters dealing with minority members. Barrett said that current commercially produced tapes are outdated. The videotapes assist students in dealing with people who have a pressing need for special library facilities (i.e. people who have specialized interests or do not read English). Libraries should start relying on forms ol media other than books, he added. Marcuso said that the seminar program has strong support from both students and faculty. Three seminars have already been held, although none were publicized outside the department. The latest was attended by more than halt ot the department s 175 students. Each seminar involves guest speakers and/or tilms pertinent to the subject. At one, striking Buffalo teachers were the guest speakers. At another, a consultant from the Buffalo & Erie County Public Library presented a program dealing with library assistance tor the aged, which included some award-winning films relevant to the problems ot the elderly. More SILS seminars are scheduled, and will deal with the distribution of library resources to particular groups. All future seminars will be open to the public. —May Wah Restauranl FORT ERIE, ONTARIO 190 NIAGARA BLVD. Hours: 7 am 2 am Mon. ,7 am to 3 am Fri.

Friday, 24 September 1976 �International effort UB scientist to head expedition to Ross Ice Shelf by Robert Cohen on “light tables.” The object of this is to Campus Editor develop a depth-age relationship by studying melt features and density changes in , the ice, in a manner analagous to counting rings on trees. Chester Langway, -an eminent glaciologist and chairman of the Geological Sciences Department here, will lead a scientific expedition to the massive Ross Ice Shelf in Antarctica next month. Joined by a complement of Danish, Swiss and other American reserachers, the team will supervise several “ice core” drillings on the Shelf and its geographical captive, Roosevelt Island, through mid-December. The Ross Ice Shelf Project (RISP) is only one phase of an international program of glaciological research which in the past few years has greatly accelerated in pace. The effort has involved the dispatching of expedition teams to the earth’swast polar ice masses, mainly in Greenland and Antartica where three inch cylindrical ice cores, ranging, up to 7500 feet in length have been Gean rooms After the depth-age relationships from several cores are cross-correlated a comprehensive model is established which can be used to definitively determine the age of the ice at any depth. The samples can also be dated with radioactive isotopes. But this aspect of glaciological research is conducted mainly by Swedish and Danish reserachers who are America’s main partners in ice sheet study. Another angle of investigation is chemical analysis. Melt samples from the cores (the samples in liquid state) are combed for trace elements and extraneous particles. This water is more pure than laboratory distilled water and thus the analyses must be carried out in dust-free laboratories. These facilities, which were completed last year, contain one area where there is no more than one part of dust per cubic meter of air. The relative amounts of various substances ranging from lead and sulphur to volcanic dust, are compiled through complex analyses of the ice. Upward or downward trends in the atmospheric content of volcanic dust can reveal the birth and termination of ice ages and the consequent modifications in climate. extracted , from the frozen depths via highly sophisticated drilling equipment. The ice samples, Langway explains “are time capsules of geological events and trends extending as far back as 125,000 years.” The cores are extensively studied for their peculiar physical and chemical characteristics. Long experience Geological The Buffalo Sciences has become an active Department participant in ice core research with the arrival of Chester Langway, almost two years ago. Langway, who is Senior Scientist to all Upited States research activity related to the Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP, has had long experience in this esoteric field and is without doubt one of the world’s most knowledgable and respected glaciologists. Buffalo is currently the only university in the nation conducting this type of investigation on a large scale basis, and thus it has become an international center for glaciological research, serving as curator for all polar and alpine ice obtained in the National Science Foundation (NSF) subsidized U.S. ice program. At a multi-national conference of glaciologists held in Buffalo last Monday, long and short term reserach objectives lower until 199L were formulated for upcoming Greenland Ice Sheet Project (GISP) reserach. Among noted scientist-conferees were the glaciologists M. Oeschger, University of Bern, Switzerland and Willi Dansgaard, University of Copenhagen, Denmark. upswing to a warmer climate around the Frozen record A five year plan for the years 1977—82 was hammered out. One project involves the drilling of an extraordinarily deep ice sample which Langway estimates will be the frozen record of 400,000—500,000 years of geological history. The two day meeting, which attracted local news media coverage, revealed a major finding of ongoing ice research: world temperatures will get progressively 2025. R1SP plans call for 100 meter drillings at various sites on the Ross Ice Shelf and Roosevelt Island. The Shelf is a huge floating mass of ice equal to the area of while Roosevelt Island is a Spain, mountainous land feature which rises above the ice sheet.The extracted ice cores from these sites will be flown by Navy C—131 transport year plane to -30 degree centigrade storage facilities in Buffalo. Here the samples will undergo extensive physical and chemical analyses. The physical analysis consists mainly of observing the layer structure of the cores Environmental contaminants The researchers pay close attention to trends of the last thousand years. One significant finding reveals a marked rise in the atmospheric concentration of sulfate ions since the inception of the lundustrial Revolution; the cumulative effect of burning massive amounts of hydrocarbons over 150 years. increases Substantial the in concentrations of other environmental contaminants, including lead, stemming from the widespread use of leaded gasoline in the internal combustion engine are discernible in the glacial record of the last 50 years.

This photo bookstore is an extension of CEPA services to the Buffalo community, all of which are carried out on a non-profit basis. The bookstore has access to such technical, historical and visual materials as photo magazines. The returns from toward bookstore sales go purchasing more books or toward ongoing activities at the Center, including exhibitions and educational programs. Intensive workshops The Center was founded in 1974 by Robert Muffoletto, offering a series of intensive workshops and classes ranging from Zen to film animation. There are currently more than half a dozen ongoing programs at CEPA, not only-in its 3230 Main Street location, but also in other locations around the community. One such outside program, run by Jane Landsman, is “Visual Artists in the Schools,” funded by the National Endowment for the Arts. Here CEPA joins with the Buffalo Board of Education to bring photographers, filmmakers and video artists into Buffalo city high schools to hold workshops with entire classes or on an individual basis. CEPA photos are being exhibited inside four METRO buses making regular rounds' on city streets. CEPA has also given an exhibition in the Buffalo Library Public at Utica and Jefferson, where visitors could buy photos if they so desired. Bill Staffeld, director of photography at the Kenan Center in Lockport, currently is coordinator of Exhibitions at CEPA. His list of exhibitions includes Best of Show at the Albright-Knox Western New York Exhibition of 1976. Recent exhibition Staffeld and Muffloetto hope to bring more exhibitions like the Utica-Jefferson Project to Buffalo, where visitors have the chance not only to look at the photos but to obtain them. The most recent exhibition of this type was this past Tuesday at the CEPA gallery. An xxhibition works by five photography instructors at this University — Tyrone Georgiou, Don Blumberg, Richard Links, John Wood and Nathan Lyons was not disrupted by the rain. The atmosphere at CEPA is always a friendly one and Muffoletto strongly encourages the public to come in and “gaze and rap.” There is a membership offering a year’s subscription to CEPA’s publication “Snapshots,” and significant discounts in the bookstore and community darkroom program. Invitations and notices of exhibitions and visiting artists also are included in the $10 membership fee. —Fliss Muffoletto, Staffeld, Lan Isman The process, science and art of producing permanent images or sensitized surfaces by means, of the chemical action of light or other forms of radiant engergy is called photography.

The fact that The Spectrum has a regrettable but undeniable need to support itself by printing advertisements does not release it from its obligation to serve the University community and therefore, to refrain from printing material which we find particularly offensive. This calls for something which every editorial newspaper is bound to exercise discretion. Obviously, you make decisions about *. Friday’s In Indian jails To the Editor. I am writing to inform, you of the plight of Mr. P. R. Sarkar, who has been held in an Indian jail for more than four and one-half years on trumped up charges of murder. Mr. Sarkar is the founder of Ananada Marga, a social service and spiritual organization with members around the world. In the United States, Ananda Marga has established group homes for teenagers and women ex-offenders, prison projects, coops, community food and nutrition projects, and also has done extensive disaster relief work in cooperation with the American Red Cross. A deep concern is felt by the members of Ananda Marga with respect t,p the deteriorating health of Mr. Sarkar who has been fasting on liquids for three and a half years to protest jail conditions and police actions aimed at harassing him and many of his supporters. Four members of Ananda Marga standing trial with Mr. Sarkar, after seeing him recently in his cell sent a petition to the judge. An exerpt is contained below. That in fact, these sort bf prolonged tortures increased his ailments to an alarming stage as depicted in the beginning, ,4s a result, Sri P.R. Sarkar has been awfully reduced to a skeleton and thus deliberately brought to the brink of death. The eight month trial of Mr. P.R. Sarkar, founder of Ananda Marga, a spiritual and social service organization, is being politically manuevered to discredit him and destroy his organization according to Claude Armand Sheppard. Mr. Sheppard, a distinguished Canadian lawyer, acting as The Oui ad - To the Editor We protest the offensive ad of “OUI” Magazine in The Spectrum, Friday, September 17th, 1976. The blatant and sexist message that the cover conveys affronts us as members of the University community. It is neither necessary nor right that The Spectrum accept ads that are bound to offend such a large segment of the paper’s feadership.

Logically, the same standards which you apply in selecting articles, etc., should be applied in selecting advertisements. I found the “Oui” ad particularly offensive and I gather, so did others in the University community. Perhaps if you had thought about it beforehand, you would have foreseen the negative rectiop, but I suspect that your only economic. considerations were It is unquestionably Mr. Heffner’s right to publish, distribute'and promote “Oiu” magazine, but you are not thereby bound to aid him. This University says it is working to eliminate sexism and other similar bigotries in our society, but if the student paper can be bought off with the price of an ad, then how much credence can out statements have? The Spectrum ought not print articles and editorials that condemn prejudice, on the one hand, and promote the agents of it, on the other. Barry Ginsberg official observer for the International Commission of Jurists (Geneva) and the International League for Human Rights (New York), prepared a 35-page report, released earlier this month, based on his visit to India in June of this year. Although Mr. Sarkar has been imprisoned more than four and One-half years on what is ostensibly a criminal case, Mr. Sheppard noted in his report “the clearly political overtones of the prosecution. One cannot avoid the conclusion that a governmental witchhunt has been instituted against anyone associated with Ananda Marga.” The trial is being used, the report states, “to destroy the credibility of Ananda Marga and disillusion its followers.” The report states that actions by the Indian authorities are making it impossible for Mr. Sarkar to finance his defense: “All the Ananda Marga assets have been seized and contributions from abroad are not permitted by the Indian authorities. The accused are apparently destitute and there are no funds available to pay the expenses . . . and fees of the defense counsel.” The: trial of Mr. Sarkar will end shortly and we believe that whether found innocent or guilty Mr. Sarkar will still be held .in jail.

Page six . The Spectrum .. Friday, 24 September 1976 To the Editor There are those people who feel hunting and the right to bear arms should be done away with. Hunting is a method of conservation which keeps the population of certain animals moderate enough so the animals do not starve during the winter months from a severe food shortage. Hunters are even allowed to take doe, by the permission of game wardens, off of Letchworth State Park, to shrink the population enough so that the deer will live beyond the three or four year life span of most deer in the park. (This is if the deer live to be that old.) I. unlike most children, learned respect for a gun at a very early age from my parents. That all guns should be treated as loaded at all times, and a safety on a gun is not always the answer to a gun not firing, it can still go off. My father teaches a Hunter Safety course which teaches techniques that greatly improve the safety of hunting if they are followed. The ones that give hunting a bad name are the hunters who kill more than their limit; who just leave their game lay to rot; just for the sport of killing; those who shoot hen pheasants and doe when the male of the species js the only one allowed to be taken, again just for sport; those who pay no attention to what they are shooting at (disregarding what is behind the intended target or whether the intended target is the game which they are seeking); and those who do not seek out their wounded game leaving the animal to suffer and later die in the wild due to its inability to move or to consume food. Do not blame all hunters for those few who give the sport a bad name. Remember all of us could be paying more taxes to have conservation officers do the job hunters can do much more easily. Remember there is a fee which goes with the hunting licenses which helps the state employ game wardens and conservation officers to make sure the laws of hunting are followed and to provide the revenue to pay for the Hunter Safety instruction and equipment (instruction books which the person now keeps to refer back to, and for the test papers and other paper work which goes with the course). The question you must ask when it comes to hunting is; would you rather many more animals die from starvation in the winter, or some die in the fall at the hands of people who will take the game home and use it as food? Deer, pheasant, and the meat of other game does taste delicious. Hunting is a conservation practice, as is fishing, which I expect to see another foolish commentary that popularizes letting fish die by starvation which will pollute our waters and our shores just as the animals would pollute our wilderness if their rising numbers are not checked in some way or another. Kurt Preston �Hard Rain' Instead, the viewer got one hour of unadulterated Dylan. Under normal circumstances this would be fine but on Tuesday night the eleven songs Dylan sang (several with the accompaniment of Joan Baez) ran together so tightly, so unvaryingly and so monotonously as to drag the show down and the viewer with it. completed the first set (that is, before the first commercial). It was typical of the tone of the music as it lost whatever melody it had on Blood on the Tracks. Dylan is not known for his rapport with his audience the presence of the camera did nothing to alter this. Extensive use of close-ups showed him bleary-eyed and lethargic for the better part of the program; To the credit of the production crew it should be noted that the hand held cameras with which they worked were never shown on screen, thus leaving the television audience ignorant of the proximity of the cameras to the performers. One can only wonder what effect, if any, the presence of the cameras had on the performance and the audience's perception of it. No rapport As Dylan usual, the changed arrangements on most of the songs, singing a barely recognizeable "Blowing in the Wind." From there he ran through "Railroad Boy," "Deportee," and "I Pity the Poor Immigrant," in which Joan Baez traced back her Mexican heritage by jumping around the stage while pldying the maracas. Charo, she ain't. An electric version of "Shelter From the Storm" Audience omitted Perhaps the major flaw of "Hard Rain" was the lack of concentration on the audience. Most concert films and albums (not to mention most concerts) rely greatly on the energy felt and generated by the audience. Fof the most part, "Hard Rain" might just as well have been filmed in a studio. While the close-up shots were a pleasant relief for those of us who call the last row of seats in an auditorium home. Bob Dylan flops with first television special Believe me, it's not easy for this die-hard Dylan fan to admit that Bob Dylan's first television special, an event I eagerly awaited, was a flop. Far from recreating the excitement generated in a live Rolling Thunder Revue concert, last Tuesday's program, "Hard Rain," was weak and uninspired. The actual Rolling Thunder concerts were "revolving doors" for the many talents which took part in them. In "Hard Rain," however, these stars, with the exception of Joan Baez, were all but ignored. In the live shows, the individual appearences of Rambling Jack Elliot, Roger McGuinn, and Honi Mitchell among others and their performance together as a group, created the atmosphere of a travelling carnival show pf the sort with which Dylan has always expressed fascination. It is hardly likely, however, that this atmdkphere could have been conveyed in under three hdurs, much less in onp. , " — long shots taken from behind the audience would have Wen far more appropriate to remind the viewer that he was watching an actiigl concert. • Musically, it was sad to see the neglect Rivera, whose sensuous haunting violin laced Dylan's old and new songs in live performance. Also disheartening was the omission of "Iris," which on the Rolling Thunder tour generally hailed as high point the Dylan's Of live of'Scariet performances. "Mozambique" lost the playfulness it has on Desire and without the deep, mellow tones of Scarlet Rivera's violin, became static. Similarly, "Idiot Wind" sounded like it came off the Before the Flood album with Dylan spitting out the words and elongating the last wsong, was completely destroyed by the credits which blocked out the beginning of the song and cut off the end entirely. Theoretically, "Hard Rain" could be the start of a new concept in television concerts. Far superior to the "In Concert" programs of several years ago, television viewers could watch a concert from a "You Are There" point of view. Jt's just a shame that this type of programming could not Work its way up to "Hard Rain" instead of starting from there. -Eric Nussbaum m is probably still there, of hard) but the wise consumer 'V any of it.

He had rejoined his old backup group (who, in the interim, had made a few friends on their own) and was actually going out of his way of reach the public, playing all his old tunes just the.way we wanted to hear them. Despite a slight hint of uneasiness ("Stagefright") on Bob's part, the tour went over quite well and was, by all accounts, a thoroughly satisfying musical experience. Since then, the times they have a-changed: appearances at jet-set parties and concerts are no longer surprises; hastily written ditties to Dylan's personal heroes show their amateurish faces; the "legendary" Basement Tapes are exuded upon th6 public; the horrendous Desire album hits number one in the 3iHboard charts; the star-studed Rolling Thunder by Revue goes on a nationwide tour; Dylan get a cover story in People magazine and is quoted as considering hinhself "exclusive" rather that "seciusive"; Dylan simultaneously releases an hour-long television special and a live album, both entitled Hard Rain, and. the same week gets a cover story in TV Guide ... What this all amounts to is .... (Yes, I know you didn't read this to hear a lecture on declining folk you'll find out how his new album is soon heroes is that Bob Dylan enough, if you haven’t already) has finally acheived the widespread notoriety and "rock star" status that were denied him in the sixties, the decade during which he actually deserved them. Fact is, with the exception of the brilliantly conceived Blood on the Tracks and (possibly) New Morning or the live Before the Flood, Dylan has contributed nothing to the music of the seventies. — .... igr lard Rain, the monumental live release which may well establish Robert Zimmerman as the Brice Springsteen of 1977. There is no new material here, so no fresh insight into the status of his songwriting talents is to be had.

When directed at Gertrude alone, Hamlet's bitterness about sexuality has seemed to me a more self-centered, generalized loathing. Pennell's performance in firmly anchors it the relationships of the play. Hamlet is thus presented less as a man constitutionally disposed toward pathological obsession than as a man to whom terrible things have happened which produce violent Spectrum A rts Staff (Ontario) The Stratford Shakespeare Festival production of Hamlpt, directed by Robin Phillips and William Hutt, reveals both the virtues and the dangers of the general approach Phillips lias brought. to Stratford since he became Artistic Director last year. He shuns ostentatious spectacle and allows a play's own inherent rhythm and structure to emerge and shape the performance. This places considerable burden on the particularly actors, the in tragedies where the ability to the complexity and convey fullness of the experience of a central figure or figures is crucial to the success of the performance. His production of A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Way of the World were such stunning triumphs partly because the demands they <place upon actors are limited. These are rich and complex plays, but their richness and complexity lie less in the of individual experierice characters than in the tone and pattern of the whole, things over which a director can exercize a great deal of control. The success of a performance of Hamlet depends largely on the actor playing the hero. The Stratford production alternates two actors as Hamlet (Richard Monette and Nicholas Pennell) and two actresses as Gertrude (Patricia Bentley-Fisher and Pat successive in Galloway) performances. When Monette and perform, the Bentley-Fisher mediocre; when is production Pennell and Galloway play the an excellent it is parts, production, the most nearly satisfactory I have seen (this includes productions and films with Olivier, Schofield, Plummer, Williamson, and Si i Waterston). The rest of the cast remains constant, the staging is the same, but the effect is very different- reactions. Directness and robust energy Pennell's characterize performance thoroughout. His Hamlet does not withdraw from a corrupt world so mpch as search for ways to attack it. His irony, though not delivered with the biting acerbity of a Nichol Williamson, is a very active force in his performance. He uses.it as a means of confronting the other characters with the urgency of his perception of how out of joint the time has become. Integrated performance However, .Pennell's Hamlet is not merely energetic. Using words like "directness" and "robust," I may be giving the impression that he misses the psychological complexity of the character. This is not the case. Rather, what he does is render that complexity more active and immediate.’ He does not sacrifice psychological interest for the sake of action; he his through it expresses with the other interaction characters. Like most Hamlets, he is alternately anguished, cheerful, bitter, and thoughtful; he often seems decidedly unstable. But these qualities are inextricable from the other characters and the situations in which he is involved, and so do not present themselves as aspects of some isolated subject of a case study. One advantage of Pennell's physical energy is that it makes sense of those parts of the play where Hamlet seems extravagantly theatrical and/or near insane (eg., when he utters his "wi.ld and whirling words" following his interview with the Ghost, or when h'e stabs Polonius, or when he jumps into Ophelia's grave). There is no sense of disjunction between this man and the man who discourses with eloquent idealism about the earth, the heavens, and mankind, or the man who Intermingling interpretations The idea of having two actors switch off as Hamlet shows that Hutt and Phillips are aware that the play probably can never be one to down pinned interpretation. As Ujo Karesa, the the manager" of "literary Stratford Festival, puts it, anyone reading "doesn't tidily account for what must be left out, for what remains obstinately beyond tidying.'' This is sound, and it is only unfortunate that Richard Monette's performance’ is little collection of more than a unconnected gestures. It would have been interesting to have seen how two different interpretations of Hamlet, alternating in the same production, played off each other. As it is, we have only one. The one we have, though, is good one. Nicholas Pennell's Hamlet is robust and energetic, without sacrificing the character's psychological complexity. The of his quality distinctive performance is the sense he gives of Hamlet's acute and very physical feeling of involvment in a his and corrupt world, intimate consciousness of relationship with he people who . . Prodigal Sun ironically on other people's theatericality. He is responding actively to events, and if these events move him in contradictory directions, it is nevertheless a single man they comments have made it corrupt. Unlike most actors playing Hamlet, Pennell gives the impression of having thought carefully about his feelings toward each of the other characters, and about how those feelings develop over the whole performance. Most Hamlets are isolated and self-involved by comparison, treating each of the other characters more of less similarly. Pennell addresses other actors directly, and reacts visibly to what they do and say to him. Sexual nausea Let me cite an example. Hamlet's disgust with sex, and the origin of this attitude in his feelings about his mother, are often given great performance, even in productions than heavily Freudiart less Olivier's film. But in all the seen, have I performances Hamlet's sexual nausea is directed only at Gertrude, or at Ophelia as a kind of stand-in for Gertrude. Pennell relates it to Claudius, too, or rather to the specific sexual importance in move Visionary intellect Pennell does not give us all of —continued on page 12— Friday, 24 September 1976 The Spectrum .

One of Hard the most interesting, if unimportant, aspects of Rain is the presence of revised lyrics on a number of songs. This is not an uncommon practice for Dylan, and its occurrence on the new album proves that he is still progressing, if only in one direction. Whether or not the changes are for the better is a matter that is up to the discretion of each individual listener, as both new and old tend to be equally cryptic. A good examplfe is the scornful "Idiot Wind' which contains several lyric changes, such as the lines: can't feel you anymore can't even touch the books you've read I Every time / craw! past your door I’ve been wishing I’d been somebody else instead "Twenty years of schoolin' and they (CPS) put on the day shift," whined Bob Dylan in 1965. after 15 years of But now Dylan himself — — •myth-building and paying literary dues — is being put back into schools, as Dylan seminars spring up on campuses around the country. It doesn't take a fortune teller'or gypsy from Desolation Row to know that the next generation will find Dylan's words bound between Viking cloth covers, stacked 30y high in college bookstores, right next to Rimbaud and Whitman. In the coming years, it will be the professors and critics who were raised on Dylan that will be determining what is of "literary merit," not their crotchety teachers who rejected "the youth's voice of the '60s." "Anyone who thinks Dylan is a great poet has rocks in his head," snorted a University of Vermont English professor in 1965, summing up academia’s attitude towards Dylan (himself a University of Minnesota drop-out). Not so long ago just a handful of maverick teachers were quoting Dylan's words, mostly graduate instructors who led clandestime discussions in seedy coffeehouses, seeking a respite from an outdated curriculum of a stuffy English department. Or the draft resisting music teacher who almost lost his job for goading seventh graders into a secret verse of "Slowin' in the Wind." Today, Dylan is not only taught by legions of teachers throughout the country, but is thought by some to be the major poet of our era. In the last two years, courses dealing with Dylan have been offered at such diverse colleges as the University of Southern California, the State Unviersity of New York, Johns Hopkins University and Dartmouth College. A Bob Dylan course was offered at the University of Buffalo recently under what was formerly known as College E, now Cora P Maloney College. The instructor was Schafer Zysman. At a recent meeting of the Modern Language Association in San Franciso, 50 scholars, almost all young English professors, gathered to discuss "The Deranges Seer: The Poetry of Arthur Rimbaud and Bob Dylan," and how Dylan's view of women has evloved from "macho posturing" to a "reconciliation of the sexes." "I- always use Dylan in my poetry classes, it's the most popular section of the course," says Belle D. Levinson, professor of English at SUNY at Geneseo. "Increasingly," she adds, "students are more familiar with Dylan's songs, mostly because is a very disappointing album, and should definately been recorded earlier in, the tour, or at least included some of the more prominent members of the Revue. Let's hope that his future efforts don't make this one look any better in retrospect. —John Duncan Rain Which are changed, in the new version, to Dylan courses in colleges Special to The Spectrum Fascination, no? If that's the most interesting thing we can'expect Mr. Dylan to be doing in the future, we'd better drum up some more political martyrs for him to sing abput. As it stands bow, Hard / This eras poet by Russ Smith / can't feel you anymore I can't even touch the clothes I wear Every time I come into your door You leave me stranded in the middle of the air he's being tauqht in the high schools." Levinson emphasizes the "crucial links" between the v poetry of Dylan and the French Symbolists, particularly Rimbaud and Baudelaire. She lectures about the similarity of Dylan's and Rimbaud's psychic trips, how both "were drained by drugs and came out with changed senses of perception." Their poetry is that of "evocation and experience rather than description." Levinson often compares Dylan's "Mr. Tambourine Man" to Rimbaud's "The Drunken . Boat" since both poems are surrealistic, drug induced, mystical journeys. The chairman of the Modern Language conference, Patrick Morrow of Auburn University in Alabama, agrees that Dylan's time has arrived in "higher learning" but stresses that it's mostly the junior colleges and state schools that are leading the trend. "Popular culture has not been accepted'by most major colleges yet," he asserted. Morrow himself taught a pop culture course at USC which he found was extremely popular with students. Morrow, praising Dylan's eclectic taste in literature, explains, "Dylan is powerful because he has the vision to seize the spirit of a movement, much like Yeats." William McClain, professor of German at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, was tickled when a few of his students uncovered direct parallels in the writings of Dylan and playwright Bertolt Brecht. "It's wonderful to know that the words and moods of Brecht are available through Dylan on the juke boxes of America!" McClain said. And at Dartmouth College, where a seminar called "The Songs of Bob Dylan" was offered last fall, Bob Ringer, a biology major, remarked, "It was one of the best courses I've had. I was somewhat skeptical at first, not knowing much about Dylan, but I found that some of his songs recreated the themes of Browning, Blake and Rimbaud." Dylan is only the latest in a long succession of renegade writers who were scorned by the literati of their day. Rimbaud was tested by the Parisian men of letters in the early 1870's, and was running guns in Asia before cultists succeeded in legitimizing his poetry. Whitman's masterful Leaves of Grass was banned for its "obscene and immoral passages." And Ezra Pund's poetry was proclaimed "incoherent, the work of a madman." This slow acceptance is probably no surprise to Dylan, who has an acute sense of history and always plays his cards right. His songs are like a newsreel of the '60s and '70s, filled with the movements, fads, slang and personalities of the time, songs that were made to be examined thirty years after they were written.

(Sub-Board disburses student activity fees to campus organizations, including UUAB.) Last February, Sub Board moved for dismissal of Dennis Fpx, the Film Connittee Chairperson at that time. Fox was accused of being "in defiance" of Sub Board by refusing to cancel six "objectionable" foreign films. Ultimately, Sub Board decided to retain Fox and the films in question were shown. Graham believes that "lack of communication" was respinsible for last year's problem; he is now working to maintina good relations with Sub Board. "Things are running smoothly," said Graham. "I've talked with people on Sub Board, we've discussed titles and by the end there were no objections". and end of an era." Fassbinder important / Bob Graham has arranged a special series on the films of R.W., Fassbinder. Besides being one of his personal favorites, Graham chose this director because he wanted to "give people an idea of his imminent importance. Fassbinder is still a blossoming filmmaker although he's made between 30 and 40 films." He's received press in the Sunday Times and in two film magazines. Take One and Film Comment. Graham feels that Fassbinder deals with many themes, especially alienation and a person's relationship to the world. "He's very Brechtian, very socially and socialist oriented." Graham suggests that a newcomer to Fassbinder see The Merchant of Four Seasons and Ali.Fear Eats the before, said Graham. It is also one of the first times that (Alexander Kluge's) The Occasional Work of a Female Slave and The Tenderness of the Wolves have been shown in this country. Other international films planned for this fall include The Passenger. The Man Who Sailed Down Everest, The Romantic Englishwoman, The Return of the Tall Blond Man With One Black Shoe, End of the Game and All Screwed Up. Several innovations have been made in scheduling this semester's films. Previously, the Free Series films were grouped in blocks, according to subject. This was unsuccessful according to Graham, since there aren't that many fioms in any one genre. Therefore, Graham decided Damn foreigners Graham feels that last year's Film Committee did an inadequate job of publicity, this may have resulted in the loss of money the Film Committee suffered. Many students will not attend foreign film's which they have never heard of. "We learned from last semester, that won't come to the unkown. You have to create an interest in films people aren't familiar with. Dennis (Fox) should have followed through on his schedule with I <- ‘ publicity'-'. Graham explained that money is a big consideration when the program is arranged. Foreign film distributors ask for high rental prices. The Film Committee especially cannot afford to finish a year at a loss, since it subsidizes certain lesser money-making committees. Something for everybody Graham stressed that although his schedule includes more popular films than last year's, he has tried to present a broad selection. "There is something for everybody on the film list. This year's schedule is more balanced; we've tried to pick the best Of the unseen foreign films and the best popular films. Graham also believes the term "popular" is not synonomous with junk. He cited Nashville as an art film that was also a box office sucess. Another explanation Graham offers for the decrease in nonpopular films is the French and English department's programming of many foreign movies. "I'm against regurgitation of films shown in classes". Unfortunately, the list of French and English department films could not be included in the Film Connittee's first brochure. Due to the high cost of publishing the film list, Univeristy Press advised Graham to wait. He plans to put out a list of class films as soon as possible. "It is important that this information be distributed", he said. Graham also noted that two foreign films, Costa-Gavras' Special Section (Nov. 11 and 12) and Le Magnifique (Nov. 6 and 7) were mistakenly left out of the brochure. Directors such as Truffaut and Bergman are not sufficiently represented this year because of the "non-availability of their recent projects. When their films are available we'll be the first to get them," said Graham. "We prefer that weekend films be current"?'"' Foreign film first Despite the problems Graham mentioned with bribing foreign films to campus, he emphasized that the committee was not ignoring films made abroad. Seven Beauties (Lina Wertmuller) has never been in Buffalo : jr 'j0r to experiment by doing a semester-long free series on an the western. "I decided on the almost limitless subject western because many important directors have worked in this genre. Other genres would have become tired, they would have petered out" said Graham. "Besides, these westerns are modern, they have parallels to today's world, henceforth they're non-westerns," he added. Graham has introduced a free "Double Feature Night". Each pair of these Wednesday night movies have been matched to complement each other. "The double feature idea was an inspiration of a year spent in Germany as an exchange student," said Graham. Some of the double they once played Dorian features in Cologne were wild Gray and Myra Breckenridge together". Graham cited October 6 (Ronald Reagan night) as an examole of "thematic booking." "We're not just - — Soul. Although these are not considered his best works, they are his most "accessible" films. The Bitter Tears of Petra Von Kant is probably his best, but it is not accessible". The UUAB Film Committee is now deciding on next semester's films. Committee meetings are open to everyone and Graham urges more students to join. "We all have different interest. Everyone tries to convince each other of the importance of certain films. We hash things out". Graham has the ultimate decision, but says that he'll accept a film he doesn't want if most of the committee wants it. After attending three meetings, anyone can vote and join the committee. Besides deciding on films, members do such jobs as writing copy, finding distributors and distributing fliers. And, "We're always in need of people".

His only serious flaw is his inability to convey a sense of Hamlet's elevated and almost visionary intellect, to haake us experience an incredibly activfe and brilliant mind playing over the whole surface of reality arid probing its de.pths. There have been very few actors in Our time, if any, who have had the tools to do this. Maybe Olivier was the only one, and his Hamlet was crippled by a heavy-handed and limiting Freudian interpretation. I have not seen a performance of Hamlet which included any more of the character's variety, while coherent, than remaining / Pennell's. All in all, Pennell's is the Hamlet of A.C. Bradley as developed by Granville-Barker and Dover Wilson, rather than the Freudian Hamlet of Olivier or the of bitter student-ascetics Williamson and Waterson. Monefte's by performance, contrast, suggests nothing. He seems to have no notion of what the character to be thinking and feeling and conveys no sense of a mind operating behind his histrionic gestures. As a result, the whole production is lackluster when he plays in it. Everyone seems to be going through their routines without responding to the other actors ( onstage. Pat Galloway's Gertrude is also to Patricia superior Bentley-Fisher's. Ms. Galloway plays the part with a kind of nervous instability which is engendered and exacerbated by Hamlet's constant attacks. Ms. Bentley-Fisher, on the other hand, seems unconcerned by Hamlet's her. While attitude toward Monotte delivers the speech "Nay, Madam, I know not 'seems'," she smiles absently and fiddles with some papers on a table. Thus, when we come to the closet scene her sudden expression of remorse is rather unconvincing. It may be that the actress is trying to portray Bradley's Gertrude, whose - stupid, physical good nature blinds her to moral questions, but if so, she needs to work out a more effective transition to "Hamlet, thou has cleft my heart in twain." Grim reality Michael Liscinsky is a rather insinuating, effeminate Claudius, without much regal majesty. I do not find his performance very compelling, even though I am not one of those who sees Claudfus as an equal and mighty opposite to Hamlet, (f an actor abandons the conventional portrayal of the role a fairly solid, self-centered Machiavel with limited — imaginative capacities but genuine ability as a practical ruler than he must rethink the part thoroughly. Liscinsky has not — '* done that. Marti Maraden is reasonably good as Ophelia. She is a character about whom, with all her lyrical pathos, it has become difficult for us to care, in the cynical seventies. Perhaps this is why the Stratford production has her brought in shackled in her mad scenes to add a note of grim physical reality. This also takes some of the burden of acting off of Ms. Maraden, since her struggle against — j. RECORDS — her bonds creates an excuse for distorted gestures which in turn can stand for her insanity. The Polonius of Eric Donkin is excellent. He is nastier and more authoritarian than simply foolish, but this is an acceptable way of reading the part.. The foolishness of Donkin's Polonius is that of someone so arrogant that he has only one line of thought in his head at a time, and is capable of changing di rect 'ons without the acknowledgment of slightest having been wrong or even inconsistent (a humorless version of Ted Baxter from The Mary Tyler Moore Show). Judy Collins, Bread Roses (Elektra) Few artists have been as consistently good as Judy Collins. For more than fifteen years, since the early 60's, she's managed to come up with album after album of gr,eat music. To give a glimpse of her vast repertoire, she's recorded such masterpieces as "Who Knows Where The Time Goes," "Someday Soon," "Albatross," "Secret Gardens," and "Che." Judy's finely tuned, rich crystal clear soprano ranks second only to Joni Mitchell's. Her songwriting, though not very extensive, has nevertheless been & Film Festival last year. So touched was Judy that she dedicated this album to his spirit and recorded his last composition, "Plegaria A Un Labrador" which was written one hour before his death. The song is a moving tale of one's feeling of brotherhood and love in the hour of death. Recorded live at the All Saints Church in New York City; the rendition Collins gives is simply precious. Jay Berliner and Corky Hale, on acoustic guitar and harps, respectively, provide a pleasing background to Collins' forceful and heartfelt vocals. impressive.

The Spectrum Friday, 24 September 1976 ’ . Prodigal Sun �RECORDS Bolin, Private Eyes (CBS Records) past two and a half years, Tommy Bolin's the In reputation has grown My. From musical as the i guitarist debut oiirst solo his effort, Spectrum, he's gone nowhere but up/Oh that record, as a previously unknown quantity, his completely improvised guitar wizardry combined with Jan Hammar's fast-paced keyboard work and Cobham's fiery drumming made Spectrum, one of the most talked-about jazz-rock albums of the decade. This firmly established his reputation and from there, Bolin's mark in the music trade was made. Over the next two years, in-between serving as a replacement for both Joe Walsh in the "James Gang" and Ritchie Blackmore in "Deep Purple", Tommy the axe-teaser, released his own LP Bolin, appropriately called Teaser, which elicited generally favorable reviews. Now, we have his second solo effort, Private Eyfy which' I believe fails to live up to his true abilities as an inventive musician. Tommy Budgie, If (A&M) I Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules "If I Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules”? Although I'm not really sure what the title means; one thing I do know is if I were smart I wouldn't get stuck reviewing such low-Budgie productions. Along with this extremely profound title is an album cover which reinforces one's hope tha| they're in store for another concept album. It consists of three creatures, half-human half-Budgie (more commonly known as a parakeet), straight from the House of von Daniken and conceptualized in the finest Hawkwind tradition. It's all very nice, but the concept, along with the talent, ends at the cover. The album is basically hard rock, and although this trio tries to be original, they fail terribly in the final product. The first song, "Anne Neggen," sets the style for the entire album. Bassist Burke Shelley and drummer Pete Bbot more or less vegetate, keeping consistent tempos, while Tony Bourge interjects fleeting flashes of guitar work. Bourge could probably be classified as the mainstay of the group exhibiting a moderate amount of talent. The vocals presented to the listener just seem to compound the amateurish sound produced by Budgie. Along with Shelley's lead vocals, which just don't seem to fit in, there is a lack of lyrical content. The choris of "Anne Neggen" is a perfect example of their cheap-shot "originality": — It's not that Private Eyes is so bad as that it does not progress from where Bolin was at musically on Teaser and, worse than that, Where he was at while in his tour of duty with Deep Purple. Private-Eyes is full of fiery guitar licks, more so that Teaser was, but ironically, it's on the acoustic songs such as "Gypsy Soul" (with its beautiful Latin syncopations and excellent background horn section) or "Hello Again" (with Bolin almost whispering the words under a lush orchesteral background) where he excells as a song-writer. The rest of the album is filled with typical, stagnant, standard and cliched bass/guitar "boogie" numbers. Unfortunately, none are good enough or innovative enough to stand above the morass of music which goes under that title. About the only positive note that I can strike about Private Eyes is that it has a very pretty and sensuous album cover which just reinforces my belief that there ought to be a "Truth-in-packagin Law" for the music industry —Gerard Maltz Anne Neggen Anne Neggen (which they repeat) Anne Neggen Anne Neggen and again and again How original and tricky they are, huh? It's more like how monotonous they can be. These are the type of lyrics Bourge and Shelley have collaborated on throughout the album. Another example of this is ' the title cut of the album: Some people try to tell me that life is a joy Others think I'm crazy when / say it's a toy Only the lonely understand that it's true Only Brittania has the right to waive the rules This song itself not only doesn't make sense, it also fails to give the listener any insight into the purpose of the title or the jacket art. Still the album proves not to be a total oloss; on "You're Opening Doors" the group does get it together both musically and vocally. Unfortunately, this is the only time it happens. Hopefully Budgie can be a little bit more orginal next time, but as this album stands now; it's all been donebefore and with better results. So in looking back in this album all I can say is: If / Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules is one small step for Cover design and one giant leap nowhere for -Tim Switala rock and roll, Hummingbird, We Can't Go On Meeting Like This (A&M) How many times have you bought a record on impulse because alone?

The problem is that Hummingbird tries to play all-obsessed funk ("Fire and Brimstone"), fusion ("Snake Snack"), soul ("Heaven Knows Where You Been"). They even throw in some tasty country-western tinted jazz, which employs some harmonica. Prodigal Sun • Tower of Power, Ain't Nothin' Stoppin' Us Now (Columbia) Another album, another lead singer. It seems this has been the pattern throughout Tower of Power's entire existence. Edward McGee, TOP's latest voice, seems like a futile choice in their long-and-not-so-illustrious career. McGee doesn't fit into the group as well as any of the three previous vocalists. Tower of Power made their recording debut back in 1970, with the release of East Bey Grease. The music was funky jazz, and they became the first in a string of all-white bands (followed by AWB and KC). The lead vocalist, Rufus Miller, stayed with them on their follow-up, Bump City. Miller dominated the group at this time, but the true force behind them was the TOP horn section. Not until their third album. Tower of Power, did they get true recognition. With their first single, "What is Hip?" they began to accumulate a devoted following. Miller took off (to be busted later on for grass) and Lenny Williams, perhaps their best vocalist, replaced him. Lenny Picket was added on saxophone, and he quickly took center stage. His dancing antics on stage and his saxophone expertise rapidly won him recognition as the group's spotlight figure. Along with Emilio Castillo, TOP's founder, on sax, Steve.Kupka, Mic Gilette, and Greg Adams, the horn section evolved into one of the best in the field, and they've been recorded on many albums other than their own. Their next disc, Back to Oakland, contained several impressive songs, including their first instrumental, "Squib Cakes." Lenny Williams stayed with them through their next effort. Urban Renewal. Bruce Conte's fluid guitar riffs, Frahk Prestia's booming bass lines, and Chester Thompson's dominant.keyboards sparkled on this album, and the rhythm section was quickly gaining enormous strength to balance out the band. Lenny Williams departed to release a solo album, and Hubert Tubbs was added to sing his heart out. His first disc was In the Slot, a TOP classic. Every song was impressive. The horn section excelled. This past summer, TOP brought their best talent (live performance) to album with the release of Litre and In Living Color A dazzling rendition of "What is Hip?" and the entire second side version of an East Bay Grease song, "Knock Yourself Out," prove that TCP's live show outclasses almost everyone else's in the business. Now back to the present album. With such praise of their material, the majority of you must be expecting a good review. Well, you're dead wrong. Ed McGee's voice wouldn't sound half bad if he didn t abuse it so much. His screams, grunts and groans tend to sound like a cow in heat. The lyrics which Emilio Castillo and Steve Kupka were so experienced in writing have been replaced by mononotously repeated choruses. The horn arrangements are still present, but to a much lesser degree. No extended sax solos by Lenny Picket, no blazing guitar lines by Bruce Conte. However, the album isn't a total loss. The title track has finely arranged horns, and "You Are to be Having Fun" is a nice disco-ish song. "By Your Side" has some sweet sax notes by Pickett. Tower of Power has had several superb discs that could have pushed them over the top to mass acceptance. Ain't Nothin' Stoppin' —Doug Alpern Us Now is stoppin' them now.. This organizational mess results from a vast array of musical influences which come with the different band members. Drummer Bernard Purdie is the most noticeable member of this conglomeration. From the first rim shots though, is on side one, his presence is powerful. Purdie, a Lenny the same sense as in drummer not your basic jazz He is a Buddy Rich. or even a Cobham, White, Billy blues and rhythm hundreds of veteran of literally and through, filters training cut his recordings.

My own feeling is that the vocals are the weakest aspect of this record. But, he does have his good moments and when he does, the music is exalted by a strange sort of soul grbwling Presenting another problem is the guitar and keyboard work of Bernie Holland and Max Middleton, respectively. in Both musicians contrast in style from Purdie and Tench, jazz. of the sense that they are purer in their presentation Subsequently, wish the two were given material that did I their talents justice.

Clifford Falk the bull pen by David J. Rubin Special Features Editor Mike is an undecided voter, and he hopes that the debates will help him make up his mind. He picks up some magazine and finds a story about the debates. It says that barter is ahfead in the West thanks to his straight talk. “Maybe 1 should vote for Carter,” thinks big Mike. But then he reads on and discovers that Ford pledged millions for the bankrupt cities. “Maybe Ford’s the man,” rethinks Mike. Carter is not popular among Catholics, says the story, but it adds that Ford said during the debates that he was not against abortion. Now Mike is really stuck. The article continues. Eugene McCarthy is drawing basic strength from labor and the 18-25 age group. Mike, a young 25, now considers casting his vote for the independent, When the story further adds that Lester Maddox is against bussing, Mike considers casting the magazine into the Pacific. In fact, Mike is so frustrated that he vows not to read another political news story until after the election. Instead, he decides to make his decision solely on the debates. So, he makes a special effort to catch debates two and three. In fact, he cancels a date with his company’s gorgeous receptionist simply to stay home and watch the “any topic debate. He listens. He listens. He listens some more, and nothing. Both Ford and finally he understands Carter talk rings aroynd poor Mike. Mike isn't stupid, but he doesn’t know about HUD or about billion dollar cuts in the defense budget or about what Jimmy Carter did for the people of Georgia. All Mike knows is that Carter speaks with a southern accent, and Ford is bald. So, Mike remains undecided until November 3. As he drives home from work, he is troubled that he hasn’t made up his mind yet. Stuck in traffic on Interstate 90,he turns on a news report where he hears that Ford was drinking his favorite brand of beer at a small gathering following a news conterence.

Last night (barring some unforseen disaster between press time and prime time), we all sat around and watched the debates. Doubtlessly, some clever journalist will come up with a better name for them than “the debates,” but for the time being “the debates” will have to do. We listened to President Ford and Jimmy Carter field questions about everything that could ever possibly take place from seas to shining sea. We admired Ford’s athletic build and wondered how we could get in touch with Jimmy Carter’s dentist because our children are cavity prone. Yet while we watched, some interesting things were going on behind the scenes. Amy Carter, young daughter of the former Georgia governor, was caught watching the debates by her grandmother, Lillian. Since it was well past Amy’s bedtime, Lillian punished the young whipper-sanpper forbidding her to drink lemonade for a week. Johnny Carson’s writers hung on every word spoken by anyone during the debates, and they came up with enough material to keep Carson in mink-lined monologues right up to election day. But more importantly, various newscasters and political analysts from the networks, major newspapers, and major magazines were sitting around keeping score. What were they scoring?

During the summer months, Cal Brady, present Program Director of WBUF, initiated changes in format and station personnel which began to upset the listnership. In late July, Brady, along with" Music Director Eric Travers, altered the BUF musical set (a set is the amount of music aired without commercial interruption.) from twenty minutes of “free form” music to twelve minutes containing three songs. Previous to this decision, the airing of “free form” of music sets entailed broadcasting selections of almost any length, be they two minute or twenty minute album cuts in the “progressive” mode. “progressive,” The Word advertised as a musical label for the content of BUF programming, is an illusive, confusing concept of radio to the audience. Each listener maintains his or her own view whether the Station concept is the correct one. There are those who believe the station should air classical rock only, or jazz only, or classical jazz rock only, and so Brady conceives the station as being a “contemporary adult rock station with a presentation that is not insulting or demeaning to anyone’s intelligence.”- But this is still an arcane statement, and as one proceeds to clarify its meaning, it becomes mysterious. yet more Listeners angered The listeners were angered when BUF changed its format; they identi f ied with the way the station had played its music, for there were certain genres of music present which they favored. As the format was altered, the listenership feared that BUF’s agreeable image and their surreal, concept ideal of “Progressive Heaven” would perish. Also, the Buffalo listeners had experienced the “de'kth” of another “progressivar” radio idea with few .years previous: WPHD-FMJa listeners the were possessive of that concept, and now paranoic apprehension was to strike again, dealing a fatal blow to BUF. Why was the structure revised? After about a year, BUF’s ratings began to level off; they were no longer rising to the expected Zenith; according to the national ratings service, ARB. Brady became concerned and subsequent to much deliberation decided to transform BUF into what he deemed a more acceptable product. This formula included a greater bombardment of commericals upon the BUF listener. Increasing in number to eight per hour, the station’s commerical spot load was, and is, now comparable to a BUF competitor, Q-FM 97, basically a Top-40 pop music station with a few album cuts thrown in to decrease boredom. Q-FM 97 might also be called a “hype” station if one listens to speaking the announcers in between records. ’ National airbuys But the number of commericals aired does not a watered down, blanched station make. “The thing about this format that infuriates people most is national airbuys,” announced Brady. People see the station, is a which they believe philosophical ideal in music, very becoming capitalist and material, hyping the audience with Budweiser, Ford and Clairol commericals and are sure the station is bastardizing itself. Brady stipulates, in the final analysis, that a radio station is a business and must pay its bills; bills are .paid-through commercial buys. I wonder though, if the station needs money, why it can’t search for a larger amount of customers in the Western New York area and, thusly, relinquish this small amount of “hype” inflicted on the the audience through purchasing of nationally produced commercials. The result would be twofold: BUF would become more personal to the community and, the station would retain a fruitful economy in the Buffalo area during a time when the city is in sore need of capital. Another major catalyst which inspired the audience to anger was Brady’s temination of certain personnel from the airways: (1) Bob Allen, host of the BUF morning talk show, the “Town Crier,” was removed from the air after persevering to obtain Erie County Sheriff Michael Amico for comment on a recent grand jury into the Sheriff probe Department’s handling of various Rich Stadium drug busts during a Stones July, 1975 Rolling probe concert. also The considered a set-up case involving Richard Department’s the Tutelomondo, who allegedly bargained with a criminal to capture Michael Goulding when he held up a Cheektowaga supermarket with the other man. by Goulding was killed Tutelomondo in the robbery attempt but the grand jury later delivered a “no bill.” Allen’s gimmick was to phone Amico’s office each weekday around 10 a.m. during the/‘Crier” program with a concept labeled, “Dial A Dodo.” It was an effort in poor taste, to force Amico to publicly air his views on the recent probe. Brady said it was this sort of yellow journalism, along with other things, that went into his, and station owner A1 Werthiemer’s, decision to terminate Allen from hosting the program. Brady added, “The Sheriff’s Department exerted no pressure on the station to take Bob off the air.” Shortly after . unemployed. (3) Pat Feldballe, BUF evening man, known on campus for his excellent programming on public radio, WBFO, was relieved of his on air duties to become the station’s Production Director. His duties now entailed creating commercials for BUF because, as Brady contended, “He had shown the most adaptability for doing creative parts. “Not having to sit on a stool for four or five hours at a crack, in a job that is basically boring, and getting hemmorhoids, and drinking lousy coffee, (subsequently) getting gas and hoping you can make it back from the john before the record ends is a promotion in my frame of mind.” ... Production Director The position of Production Director is designed to decrease the number of John M cGahn-Q-97-ultimate-hype-spots aired on BUF. Also, hearing improving rapidly. As a result of these employment shake-ups and the format change, a petition calling for Brady’s removal was circulated. The petition put forth that because of Brady, BUF was becoming AM and Top Forty in style, “going the way of a pallid KB or WYSL.” Brady believes it was Jola who authored these petitions, but Jola denies this allegation. Unaware of what has happened to these documents, Brady empathized with those who signed the petitions, who honestly felt that terminated. he should be Although hurt by the use of his name on such a fallacious petition, Brady concedes that if there were a certain amount of intelligent letters sent to him by these listeners, he might begin to think seriously of resigning his ' position. Brady has been the subject of all too much criticism regarding his position at the station; BUF is still the best station in town, playing a great amount of decent calibre music. What has transpired at BUF is not too serious when one compares its situation with the backbiting and dirty politics occurring at other radio stations. The happenings are only brought into the spotlight in this case because of violent audience paranoia as to the smallest change appearing within the station. When one is in a position of authority, one must exercise this authority as one sees fit. Perhaps a bit more communication and compromise might be considered dealing when with station personnel but this is up to Brady’s individual discretion. Such is the purpose of creating the position of Program Director. The audience should know that BUF is not selling out.

Brady and the staff rallied in effort to change Wertheimer’s decision; this may result in his reinstatement. It was well known that Allen had an almost manic personality; one got used to his mood changes as one began to understand him. It was Allen who convinced station owner Wertheimer to change the station two years ago from one* that played “beautiful music” to one that played “progressive music.” And it was Allen who suggested that Wertheimer hire Brady as Program Director. Allen lived and breathed “progressive” music, not only on his Saturday evening “progressive” music show, that Page sixteen The Spectrum Friday, 24 September 1976 . “Franklin’s Furnace,” but all the time. And now Allen was gone. (2) A second purge occurred when Jola, a BUF female weekend personality was fired because, in Brady’s world, “she was bad for station morale.” When Brady Changed the BUF formula Jola, along with Allen, called for a general staff meeting to endeavor to persuade him to renege on his position. If Brady did not meet this demand, they would call for dismissal. When Brady his discovered Jola was trying to rid him of his job, he fired her. Jola then attempted to obtain an with owner appointment without Brady Wertheimer, present, to rehire her and if she was not, to plead for the Program Director’s termination as he was thought to be ruining the station’s Jola is presently premise. Q employee, especially when Ball’s airshift is opposite that of McGahn’s. The fact of Feldballe’s matter is that he would rather be on the air than do production. Feldballe contends that he did not sell out to Brady’s whims. Rather, he supply wanted to remain at the station for money’s sake and, mainly, to “wait in the wings to be Program Director,” hoping that leaves the Brady eventually station. Brady is not concerned with Feldballe’s aspirations as long as he has his job; he perceives it natural for a talented man to wish to better his position. after these Immediately personnel changes, but especially in reaction to Feldballe’s termination, a BUF sponsor (who wishes to remain nameless) with a $7000 commercial contract removed its advertising from the airwaves. They will continue to do so until Feldballe is restored to his former airshift or until he becomes. Program Director. Along with tjie sponsorship boycott, the establishment removed its periodic of broadcasting “progressive” rock import shows. The sponsor dislikes the personnel hired to replace Feldballe. In response to the gap created by Feldballe’s removal, Brady Chordas, shifted Phil BUF morning man with very low AJLB ratings, to Feldballe’s time slot. Filling Chordas’ position in the morning was Paul Palo, a partner in Brady’s business venture. Triad Communications, which produced television commericals for various sponsors. Brady insists that Palo was hired, not because he was a friend but because he had “more air experience than all of our existing air staff combined.” (Palo was the initiator of WYSL-FM, later to be called WPHD, which played “progressive” music. Palo has hatT many other radio positions.) Brady holds that “you could make off a lot better in my other field in a good year or even a bad year than you ever could BUF as an working at announcer.” Palo has been overly criticized • for the music he plays in the morning but deserves little of it since he has taken all this carping constructively in effort to better his show.

United Artists SATURDAY FRIDAY MIDNIGHT FILM Sept. 24 "BRING ME THE - & 25th & HEAD OF ALFREDO GARCIA" United Artists with Warren Oates, Isela Vega and Kris Kristofferson directed by Sam Peckinpah - Conference Theatre Norton - UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE Norton Hall — A thoroughly confident Buffalo tennis team took to the courts last Monday to take on their local rivals, Canisius College. The match, scheduled for Main Street’s Rotary Courts, was moved indoors to the Bubble due to the rain, but the change of scenery had no apparent effect on the streaking Bulls. They won their second straight match overwhelmingly by a score of 8-1, raising their season record to 2-3. With the taste of their first win against Niagara still tingling their tongues, the Bulls showed great poise and self assurance in their quest for another victory. Although the match score (8-1) seemed overly dominant, most of the individual contests were anything but that. Bill Cole, Buffalo’s number one singles player, performed superbly in defeating Canisius'’ Damian Courtin by scores of 6-3, 6-4. It was a long, grueling contest between the two evenly matched players, but Cole’s ability to hit winning shots decided the victory in his favor. Rob Gurbacki, who holds the’second singles slot, also took his match. The scores were 6-1, 5-7 and 6-1, as it went down to the third and final set in a match highlighted by great groundstrokes of both performers. Whitewash Jack Kaminski and Ted Baughn, playing third and fourth singles respectively for the Bulls, made it look relatively easy to come away a winner. Kaminski’s ntimbers were 6-1, 6-0, while Baughn’s match was also won readily, 6-2, 6-3. Tom Curtin, playing singles for the first time at home this year, debuted strongly with a 6-1, 6-3 win. Steve Spiegel, playing sixth singles for Buffalo, rounded out the whitewash of the singles matches with an impressive 6-0, 6-1 success. In the doubles matches, Bill Cole and Rob GufBatTki lost, a heartbreaker to Courtin and Bob Fahey. Buffalo took the first set 6-3, but lost the second set 6-7. Due to lack of time, there was a nine point tie-breaker to decide the match. The visitors won the tiebreaker and the match. Kaminski and Baughn teamed to win their doubles match by scores of 6-0, 6-4, while Tom Curtin and Steve Spiegel took three sets to win their’s for the Bulls. Their stats read 6-3, 2-6, and they too prevailed in a nine point tie-breaker. The victory was decisive and very impressive for the young Bulls, who play St. Bonaventure at Olean today. .

Joe Niosi and his team-leading average of 202 will head the list. Other planned tournaments include the Utica Invitational in February and the ACU1 at Buffalo State, also in February. The club also plans to host a number of matches during the year at the Norton Lanes. The organizational difficulties that the club experienced last year will hopefully be resolved this year, since many members are returning with a year’s experience, such as Nesenoff and Gower. It is not only UB which has had organizational trouble; it is the entire community of collegiate bowling which has had difficulty. At this time there is no collegiate bowling league in New York State, and Nesenoff has pledged to work toward formation of one, hopefully in the next couple of years. Anyone who is interested in joining the club and feels that they can help the team can call Mitchell Nesenoff at 836-8976 or see him during club bowling practice, which takes place on Mondays and Wednesday between 3 and 5 p.m. at Norton Lanes.

The study, prepared for the University Heights Community Center by students Service Andrew Presberg and Marilyn Taulbee, both students here at the State University of New York at Buffalo, has been presented to Buffalo city officials. University Heights district is bounded by Kenmore, Starin, Hertel, Shirley and Bailey Avenues, Main Streetand Niagara Falls Boulevard. hundred apartment Six dwellers, inhabiting 65 percent of the rental units in the area, were surveyed in order to gather data concerning security rents, deposits, violations of the local housing and health laws, as well as The study took two months to complete. Neglected responsibilities According to the study, 388 tenants believe that the city of Buffalo is negligent in its duty to landlord with regard responsibility fof maintained rental housing. The report said 534 units (89 percent) of the 600 units visited Heights were in University without fire extinguishers. 94 apartments have no windows or fans in the kitchen. 105 units had rodents or pests at the time of the survey while 134 heating systems were found to be incapable of , maintaining legal heat, to specifications. The Spectrum contacted City Judge Burrell who, until the end of 1976, is presiding over the Housing part of City Court. He did not want to comment over the but he did express phone, when it was bewilderment many students are suggested relations. Data that landlord/tenant was also gathered from the City of frustrated by what seems to be an of inspection, Buffalo Housing and Property endless circle codes, the Department of Health reinspection and freely granted adjournments in housing code codes, and Bureau of Inspections and Licenses’ inspection reports. violation cases. City Court Judge M. Dolores Denman said that until December 1973, there was no Housing court in the City of Buffalo court system. She said in some cases landlords hide behind a them to escape prosecution in New York State. Denman would like to see a law passed that would make it easier to identify landlords hidden behind corporate facades. cases where the tenant assumed financial responsibility for upkeep or maintenance, 24 percent were not reimbursed.” corporation which legally allows A prominent Buffalo attorney said their had not materials for maintenance responsibilities the upon tenants had taken themselves. 119 of these tenants did not get reimbursed for materials they had paid for. There has been some questions raised regarding the ethics of the inspect ion/licensing cycle, as well as the unmistakable tendancy of some landlords to forget to return SA treasurer contenders express diverse viewpoints The three candidates for Student Association (SA) Treasurer, Tyrone Wilson, Abdul Wahaab and Steve Blumberg, offer a wide range of experiences and views of the treasurer’s job. Wilson, running on the People’s Choice ticket, is a former SA Minorities Affairs Coordinator, SA Executive Committee, and a member of the Financial Assembly. He is currently a Resident Advisor in Clement Hall. Wahaab, a political science major, was formerly an Executive Committee member and Activities Committee chairman of the Black Student Union, and a member of Sub Board’s Personnel and Appointments Committee. As chairman of the Buffalo Model City Program, Wahaab received an award from Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski for outstanding community service. Blumberg, an accounting major, sees his experience as the essential thrust of his campaign. Having been Assistant Treasurer from April until mid-August of 1976, and Acting Treasurer since then, Blumberg feels he has “demonstrated a committment to learning the tasks necessary to perform the day-to-day duties of treasurer.” He emphasized providing students with a broad range -Of activities, entertainment, and services like heatlh. dental and legal services. “Services such as these should be expanded when needed and maintained when threatened by cutbacks and internal politics Wahaab’s main concern is with £A’s financial managability. “For many years SA has fallen into deficit. Traditionally, there has been repetition in their programs. 1 will wholeheartedly work with the elected officials in carrying out a sound and productive program." It is important for the treasurer to cooperate with the administration in order to efficiently perform his or her duties. Wahaab indicated. Another responsibility of the treasurer, he explained. ion of new clubs st help establish recog ” they can be adequately funded and then assisting these clubs in internal matters. The position of treasurer is one in which the elected officer must see to it that the use of student fees are “in compliance with the mandatory student fee guidelines set by the Board of Trustees,’’ he states. One of the key duties of the treasurer according to Wahaab is “giving financial recommenations and advice to programming recommended by the President, Executive Committee and the various directors.” Wilson says he wants mainly “to do an honest job and to be efficient at that job.” He feels that an important part of his platform is his experience within the SA. One of his objectives is to make the system more responsive to the campus clubs’ needs. “I know the system well and other people will know the system as well as I da if they give me a chance,” he said. Wilson feels that his party gives proper representation to both commuter and dorm students. “People’s Choice" candidates for SA Senator-at-large include one dorm student and one commuter student. “The party believes this is a balancing of the scales,” he said. Wilson also sees a need for the treasurer to devote more time to club members. “I will have office hours which are desirable to most of the clubs." Actual promising is something Wilson wishes to avoid in Ids campaign. He views promising as a useless part of campaigning. “I don't promise things, but they'll see the fruits of-my labor. Blumberg wants to focus his attention on a group he feels has derived less benefit from their the commuters. “I activity fees than anyone else action, of but I promise to lend have no specific plan a sensitive ear and to cooperate fully with the very capable director of Commuter Affairs. Peter Jenco." Additionally, Blumberg would like to abide by SA s lov.anc " - said it is common that when a house becomes uninhabitable and the landlord cannot be found, the city assumes responsibility for demolishing the structure. This is done at the taxpayers’ expense, while the landlord has often realized a maximum return on his original investment. A recent article by Nancy Mulloy in The Opinion, however, stated that 89 percent of the tenants polled would rent their apartments to others and 78 percent would recommend their landlords to prospective tenants. says, “It is study The interesting to note that in the responsibility section of our data, there was a significant number of the responses where student/tenant just did not know who should shovel snow, or mow the lawns, etc. This leads us to believe that in a great number of cases, *it just was not done. “In Not reimbursed 132 tenants also respective supplied landlords security deposits. According to the study, only 25.6 percent of the students surveyed are protected by a damage inventory, making the risk of losing a security deposit very high. 369 tenents had no damage inventory taken before they moved in. Of 178 cases where the tenant lived in the University Heights area previously, only 89 their security deposit had returned. The average security deposit was $227. 11 Albany students arrested at protest Eleven students from the State University of New York at Albany were arrested Monday afternoon and charged with disorderly conduct during a demonstration on the campus. The demonstration, in which SUNY Albany Student Association President Steve DeMayo participated, was in protest of construction of a faculty parking lot next to one of the residence halls. The students arrested were blocking the path of some of the bulldozers moving in to clear away trees and bushes. A SUNY Albany student spokesman told The Spectrum that about 80 people were present at the demonstration, protesting construction of the lot over one of the few areas available for student recreation on the ultra-modern SUNY Albany Campus. SA officials had not yet decided on a course of action Monday night. Disorderly conduct carries a maximum sentence ot 50 days nment or S100 fine �Caroline Bird ‘College education doesn’t benefit all’ ft Caroline Bird, noted author afid lecturer, will be speaking at Fillmore Room tomorrow at 8 p.m. the Bird’s most recent novel The Case Against College deals with the argument that college is not for everyone and does not benefit everyone. Having been denoted as “the most vigorous crusader against the traditional approach to college education,” Bird is now traveling across the country, lecturing to students and debating college administrators and faculty members. According to Bird's own research, as many as three-quarters of the people attending college are there only because society “pushed them into it.” “College is good for some people but it is not good for everybody,” she says. Bird is also the author of four other books, and is a contributor to Ms.. Atlantic, Change, Esquire and New York Magazine.

This was indicated in a “virtually unanimous” approval for continuing the strike at a meeting Sunday, and a call for the resignation of the entire Board of Education. The Board responded that it had not been elected by the BTF, and was responsible only to the people of Buffalo. Another unusual development has been the formation of the “Buffalo Parents Coalition for a Better Education,” which has put conducted activities to pressure on the city for greater allocations to education. Two hundred people attended a rally held at City Hall Sunday, according to union sources. In a related event last weekend, the United Teachers Association, black along with three the organizations (including BUILD), announced support for the strike and declared that they would assist teachers on the picket lines if the strike were not settled on Monday. Other including citizen several, organizations, chapters of Concerned Citizens of Buffalo have called on the Board to stand fast in the face of union demands for “more pay for less work.” Public employee strikes have traditionally been very bitter, accompanied by a great deal of mudslinging, as the emphasis is heavily on public opinion. Public employee strikes have the greatest impact on the public, and it is therefore crucial where the citizenry places the blame. Last week, a Courier-Express survey gave suprising answers to this question. Although general media coverage and editorials ha/fe pictured the union as acting irresponsibly, public opinion was not so clear. Of a widely »dispersed five hundred surveyed by the Conner, 195 or 38 percent blamed the union. However, 171. or 34 percent blamed the Buffalo Common Council, which allocates education funds. And 46 or nine percent blamed the Board, Nine percent were undecided. This could be interpreted to mean that the public sided with the union against the city, 43 to 38 percent. With the union’s recent reduction of its wage demand, it would be reasonable to predict that public favor may shift even more toward the union �EUicott security studied New electronic security system installed in Bethune by Alan Most Staff Writer Spectrum Installation has begun on a $9000 electronic security system at Bethune Hall, which will include video surveillance, burglar alarms and a card access system. Though final plans for using the system are in the hands of a joint committee of Art Department faculty and students, operations will begin once the committees decision is made. , Bethune Hall, or the Meter Building, is several blocks south of the Main Street Campus. The new security system will be financed from the SUNY Construction Fund. Additionally, Campus Security is presently studying feasibility of locating video surveillance in the Ellicott Complex parking lot, according to technical supervisor Charles Brunskill. Both Bethune Hall and the Ellicott Complex arfe “designs for crime,” Brunskill said, and therefore require the use of technical equipment. Although both structures are located in crime ;free relatively nieghborhoods, both are isolated from their respective campuses, and both are relatively accessable to the public.

Because the deployment of security officers to cover the Ellicott sprawling Complex efficiently would be difficult and expensive. Brunskill recommends the use of technological such as videotape, equipment, burglar alarms, and the card access system. Manpower could be better utilized, he says, by hooking these systems into a central control panel at Campus Security, where officers could monitor many areas at once,, and respond when needed.

The shutdown was met by protests and angry charges of undemocractic procedure from Social Sciences faculty and supporters. They said Ketter had disregarded the CCRC majority which had advised conditional approval of the College. One of the major criticisms cited by the CCRC was lack of student involvement and support. The results of this referendum could resolve the report, support question. The proposition asks whether students agree or disagree with the President’s decision. The voter has the option of agreeing, disagreeing, or expressing no opinion on the matter. A vote to disagree means that one supports moves to reinstate the College and condones the formation of a student-faculty commission to review the closing action.

Buckley. The primary race offered five choices to New York’s Democratic voers, of whom only twenty-five percent decided to voice an opinion. Besides Abzug and Moynihan, the field included Abraham Hirchfeld, New York City Council President Paul O’Dwyer, and former senatorial nominee Ramsay Clark. However, the race soon narrowed to two as Abzug and Moynihan became the focal points of the contest. Moynihan won by a very slim margin, emerging with a plurality of 37 percent to Abzug’s 36 percent. The outcome was still in doubt in the wee hours of the morhing following the election,'with Moynihan holding a narrow lead over his more liberal opponent with much of Manhattan, Abzug’s stronghold, still to be counted. By dawn, however, it became apparent that the former United States ambassador to the United Nations had escaped with a hairbreadth victory as "Abzug flew back to Washington, grudingly expressing her support for the victor. Difficult task , Buckley won the endorsement of the Republican Party with relative ease compared to his counterpart, Democratic He dispensed with Representative Peter Peyser in a primary whose results were never really in doubt. Peyser’s only chance lay in the hope that due to overconfidence, Buckley supporters would stay away from the polls. This situation never materialized. forces Moynihan’s chore of joining together of the state’s democratic party is a difficulrone. In many people's minds he is not the ideal Democratic Candidate. Based on previous elections a Democratic candidate can count on support from Third World groups, Jews; Catholics and the basically liberal New York C’ity vote, which accounts for half of the statewide electorate. However, the primary offered a slate of liberal candidates and much of Moynihan’s support came from upstate conservative Democrats, some of whom could be persuaded to switch, to Buckley should Moynihan veer too far to the left . Too conservative Y*et it must be pointed out, that the great majority of Abzug supporters are likely to find Buckley far too conservative for their political palates. Moynihan is viewed as a more conservative candidate than Abzug, yet considered wel| to the left of Buckley. Hence it is likely that Abzug’s support will shift to the Democratic nominee. A New York Times opinion poll bears this suspicion out. Of those polled who voted for Abzug, two-thirds said they would be more inclined to vote for Moynihan. Only 18 percent ■ expressed a preference for Buckley, while the remaining voters were undecided. One can assume that while Abzug Moynihan not endorse supporters may enthusiastically, he will be acceptable enough for them to vote for him. Moynihan has an acute problem with the black vote, of which he received only 8 percent in the primary. If this trend continues through the general .

During the Johnson administration, Moynihan stated that the structure of the black family had been injured by racism, slavery and poverty. He later spoke of the virtues of “benign neglect” of racial rhetoric during his time as a Nixon confident. His oratories as an ambassador to the United Nations denouncing the policies of Third World nations have not met with approval with black leaders, and have added to his problems. The Irish-Catholic nominee received the endorsement and support from the Carter-Mondale ticket before the primary took place. This can be dubbed as, a politically expedient nameuver by the Presidential nominee, for it can be effectively argued that Carter needs Moynihan much, more ‘ than Moynihan needs Carter in their respective races-. : New York is the second largest state in the nation in terms of electoral votes, and it is considered to be a must by both presidential candidates. Carter’s support among traditional Democratic voters is great in numbers but light in enthusiasm. Many of New York’s Democrats express feeble support for Carter while feeling a considerable amount of uncertainty, towards him. Should Moynihan succeed in swinging the liberal vote into his column, it should give considerable impetus to Carter’s New York hopes in November. scheduled debates, and both the Ford and Carter camps agree that the series will be among the most significant aspects of the campaign. The debates are sponsored by the League of Women Voters and will be moderated by’CBS news commentator Edwin Newman. A panel of James. Gannon (It'd// Street Journal), Elizabeth Drew (Slew Yorker magazine), and Erank Reynolds (ABC News) will question the candidates, who will each be allowed a three-miriute response.

Whether Buckley can use. this unusual situation’ to siphon votes away from the Democratic column is yet to be discovered, but it has removed a normally’effective weapon from the Democratic armory. Middle ground The two candidates have each expressed a desire to debate one another on television. These, debates, like the Ford-Carter confrontations, should offer the clearest view of each candidate's platforms and ideals. Both are attempting to capture the growing number of middle-of-the-road voters which New York now houses; voters who do not classify themselves as Democrats or Republicans. Neither Buckley nor Moynihan deny -this assertion, Buckley claiming that he is best suited for the middle-of-the-road voter while Moynihan describes himself as a “man of the center’’ and a “liberal centrist.” The candidate who best convinces the electorate of his centricity is the one most likely to succeed in November.

President has some undergone Ford extensive preparation by receiving advice from television consultants qn how to look his best. Both candidates have been preparing with practice questions and have been readying the most effective answers. Because the campaign involves so many complex issues, both candidates are working on simple, to-the-po-int, answers that will cover the material without confusing the average viewer. Other possible issues to be capital discussed . include punishment, abortion, Clarence Kelly as Director of the F.B.I., and pollution. The candidates are anxious about the debates because of the immediate and massive effect of television. A Gallup poll concluded that approximately 80 percent of the people surveyed are equally anxious to watch the candidates in action. Because the President is trailing in the polls, it is almost imperative that he make a strong showing. Governor Carter has not generated the amount of enthusiasm that he wished, so it is likely that he will be specific and direct, trying to clear-up his vague image that fellow Democrats, pursued in the primaries. Ford will probably wear an American flag on his lapel and Carter will smile a lot, just to please their present supporters. The other two scheduled debates will be on foreign policy and defense (Ocf. 6), and “any topic” (Oct. 23).

The Spectrum . Page five �CSEA, Spitzberg, Sebastiano fo the Editor I would like to respond to your article on Marie Sebastiano which appeared in the Friday edition of The Spectrum. I do not wish to become involved in a political debate concerning the Colleges with either Marie or The Spectrum. Suffice it to say that 1 find the Colleges to be very worthwhile, although one could debate endlessly whether their one malaise will be caused by a severe deficiency in funding terminal or not. The Colleges do a great rfeal and do it well on a veritable pittance. I would like to offer a different perspective on Irving Spitzberg as an administrator'and as an employer:. I have worked in the Collegiate System for two years as a general secretary and as the personal secretary for Irving Spitzberg. I believe him to be a dedicated and able administrator. Granted there have been many changes in the Colleges during his tenure, and change is not always popular, but overall he has done much to ensure the survival of the Colleges as a viable unit in the University. On a more personal note, my association with Irving has been challenging, stimulating, and most pleasant. He is a hard worker and expects those about him to be the same, but he is thoughtful, considerate and democratic in his dealings with his immediate staff. In addition to my position in the Colleges, 1 am a member of the Board of Directors of CSEA, Chapter' No. 602, the Co-Chairperson of the Labor/Management Committee, and a steward in our chapter. As such, I believe I am knowledgable enough to dispute Marie’s allegations concerning her grievance. Marie did come to CSEA with apotentjal grievance (which we felt was a good one), concerning her evaluation. 1 must add a clarification at this point; Marie did not receive an Unsatisfactory evaluation. Her evaluation was Satisfactory, but with some remarks appended which could be construed either as uncomplimentary or as constructive criticism, depending upon one’s point of view. This clarification is important, since grievance procedures allowable under the contract vary considerably depending on the type of evaluation received. Under our contract, Personnel must add to an employee’s evaluation by his/her supervisor. Marie and CSEA believed (and still do) that this right was violated by the Personnel Office. However, the grievance was disallowed on a timeliness basis. (All grievances have to be filed within a given time period.) Marie contends that the letter from Personnel informing her of their alteration of her rebuttal did not reach her until shortly before the grievance was filed. Personnel contends that she received the letter at a much earlier date. Thus, the grievance was denied at two levels. CSEA decided not to take the grievance to arbitration, since this is an expensive proposition and consideration must be given to the chances of winning the case. In this instance, CSEA felt the chances were not good. CSEA did advise Marie to re-review her personnel file (in the presence of our grievance chairman), at which time we would again file the grievance on a timely basis. Marie never did so. In regard to Marie’s desire to sue Personnel, it should be made clear that CSEA cannot become involved in personal law suits. The reasons should be obvious; CSEA’s funding comes solely from membership dues, and we simply could never condone the use of our attorneys in any employee’s personal law suit. The costs would be staggering and the legal ramifications possibly quite severe. Finally, I would like to-add that 1 consider myself to be a reasonably intelligent woman, but have yet to see any signs of “fear” on Irving’s face as we go through the work day together. And as for being “put in my place,” life in the Colleges is so hectic that one is too busy even to find one’s “place-,” much less to be “put in it!” - Barbara J.

Perhaps some readers are already beginning to make assumptions about the subject of this letter,’based on that introduction. To those readers I’d ask the courtesy of reading with, an open mind. I am reacting to, the “Yellow Submarine” article that appeared in the Friday 9/10/76 issue of The Spectrum. I’ve been here four years, and in that time I’ve overcome, to some extent, my efhnocentrism as a native of Buffalo. 1 have told myself that when I heard or read an attack of some sort on Buffalo, 1 should not take it as an attack on me. Yet, in the midst of anger I’ve felt resulting from these attacks, I’ve felt the pull of the “love it or leave iF>response. But 1 disdain that attitude in >o I’ve struggled inside with the conflict. other»f lx/ Many criticisms of Buffalo, like any other city, are justified. Many of the observations that ■Solomon made in her article rang true in my own mind; it was an intriguing, provocative article. What troubles.me, though, whaf prompted me to shed my habit of passively accepting all these bad raps, was the message that I could read between the lines; the tone, not so much of the article itself, as its inclusion, its featuring on the front page, in our infamous downstater propaganda, machine, The Spectrum. I’m very irritated by the, need of so many on this campus, the need to find fault with Buffalo. Personally, it seems to me that the focus of this had karma could be any place that is not New York City; it’s just that Buffalo, being the provincial, conservative town that it is, magnifies the differences. One of the valuable things I’ve learned here at U.B. is the great importance of acknowledging and expressing my feelings. I feel that in this paper it isn’t always safe to do so. Paranoia clouds this campus. Something else I’ve learned is that what we sometimes label as “paranoia” is an authentic,, appropriate response when a person feels threatened by his/her environment, or situation, or another person. So I’m ,paranoid about giving you my name. It just ain’t worth the risk. 1 don’t want or need to be villified or insulted; my experience here tells me that those aren’t unrealistic expectations. Should this letter draw antagonistic responses, I have a sense for where they might aim. I see crowbars being driven into all the “illogical, noh-rational, emotional” holes in my argument. Well, so be it. I don’t expect anything to change, and this isn’t intended to be any sort of argument. As we have been told by Ms. Solomon, paranoia is a time honored tradition here. I guess I’m just not totally free of the feeling that, in some way, when I’m confronted with the time honored tradition of shitting on Buffalo, I’m being shit on too. It’s this need to play “Ain’t It Awful” that really, makes me heartsick, though. 1 really believe that the paranoia mentioned in Solomon’s article is based in part to a reaction to this tiresome emotional dumping. S'o. many of us are really afraid of each other! But it’s too risky to admit that. So we seethe and live by the Rule of Silence. And thereby close the door on all kinds of beautiful possibilities between people. The hypothesis is that Buffalo, in almost every aspect of its being, is gray. It seems to me that what we have here is a classic illustration of the self-fulfilling prophecy, thus: if you want to find gray, you will see gray, perhaps see something that isn’t really there, and not see much else. Especially when the lenses that cover your eyes are painted and re-painted so constantly, so thoroughly, so desperately. Damn it!' Take off your glasses! I am from Buffalo, and I am not gray! Name withheld by request Greek societies lauded To the Editor. In reference to the article written in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, we, as members of Chi Omega National Women’s Fraternity, would like to correct some gross errors stated in that column. First, we believe The Spectrum made a neglectful oversight in a blatant show of research in stating that there are no Greek organizations here. Epsilon chapter of Chi Omega has been active in Buffalo since 1940 and was unaffected by the transition Of national organizations during the 1960s. Last September The Spectrum printed a lengthy article about our fall rush, and within the past two weeks we have purchased over $40 worth of ads in various The Spectrum columns concerning Chi Omega. Next care to address Mr. Bill Machmer concernin#%)me untruths mentioned in the article. Machmer stated that he was amazed that there were no Greek letter socieites when he enrolled here; when in fact several days prior to this article, Mr. Machmer had numerous consultations with members of Chi Omega and had visited our sorority house. Also, Machmer has told interested University women that our chapter consists of four sisters, when in actuality we are twenty-four strong. - Concerning Machmer’s comments about hazing and the “making-’em-look-like-assholes- routine”; as an institution steeped in tradition since 1895, Chi Omega is forbidden from hazing and any harassment activities. We commend Ms. Kathy Kieffer in her insight as to the need for sisterhood. Our sisterhood in Chi Omega is based on academic achievement (Spring ’76 chapter cum of 3.17), vocational and professional development, community service projects which consist of at least two per school year, and of course, social activities ranging from alumni luncheons to a formal dinner dance. Chi Omega has 163 active chapters across the nation. Our survival in Buffalo within the past 10 years is due to the fervent efforts and enthusiam of our members, advisors and many alumni. Lastly, we are not a discriminatory group, and certainly discriminatory practices amongst National Greek Societies have ceased with the current times. We feel this is evident in SASU’s look into readmitting Greek Organizations into the SUNY system as of last year. We heartily encourage all earnest University women to persue sisterhood in National Greek Societies such as Chi Omega. The Sisters of Chi Omega, Epsilon Chapter �Kenneth Johnson Editor's note: The'following letter by the Kenneth Johnson Support Committee was addressed to (he University Community. Kenneth Johnson, a black, resident of Buffalo is being framed for a series of rapes Which he did not commit. He has been known and respected in Buffalo as a student and community leader as a rehabilitation counselor in Mental Health; he worked to help his clients prepare to live and function in the community. There is no credible evidence linking Kenneth to these attacks. He has proof of his whereabouts at the times the rapes supposedly occured. He bears NO resemblance to the composite Johnson ‘THIS sketch issued by the police from the victims descriptions. Three judges have refused, to even read sworn affidavits which could easily clear Kenny’s name. In December 1975, Kenny was beaten and arrested' by heavily armed plainclothasmen where he worked. He is now out on $50,000.00 bail, the U.B. Kenneth Johnson support group is a group of concerned students who got together as'a response to a man in need of help. We are convinced of his innocence. For more information come talk to us at our table set up in the union. Kenny’s trial starts Sept. 27th, at Erie County Courthouse, Part 12. Your attendance and support is really needed.

We, as officers, recognize our responsibility in clarifying these matters. The price difference between the plaices (at our discount rate) and the buses was a total of $36 extra for all three officers. This procedure also saved us IS hours spent riding, approximately and considering the fact that we had only weekends when all the officers could meet (we held summer jobs) they were 15 valuable hours. As for our meal expenses: all the Student governments and The Spectrum as well receive the same amounts per day for travel (e.g. SASU Conferences), yet it is r£re to hear comments when “the other guys” do the same. (It should also be pointed out that we used far less than was allocated.) We, just as many others involved in student organizations on campus, have put much time and effort into our jobs. We feel very disillusioned when our devotion and integrity are overlooked. Since 6ur election, we have attempted to make the Inter-Residence Council a more viable organization within the dorms.

Johnson is a black resident of Buffalo and has been charged with a series of rapes for which he faces a maximum of 126 years in prison. He has been known in Buffalo as a student and community leader, and has received many academic honors, including a nomination to West Point in 1975, 1968. In December Johnson was beaten and arrested by- heavily armed plainclothed police at Buffalo’s Community Mental Health Center, where he worked as a counselor, according to support group members. He was dragged out of the Center and charged with rape, robbery, sodomy and resisting arrest. The charges concerned a highly BOND’SU, HRTV^'; ’ of rapes in downtown Buffalo, in the heart of shopping center. major a Downtown merchants, fearing that the rapes would scare off their Christmas shoppers, pressed for an immediate arrest. Police began routine questioning of all the tall, black men with beards they could find and Johnson, who description, was fit the subsequently arrested. He has since been released on $30,000 bail, and the Committee has been trying to make the aware that, in their public opinion, the police arrested the wrong man. Johnson has proof of his whereabputs at the times the occurred, supposedly rapes according to the Committee. He bears no resemblance to the composite sketch issued by the victims from the police descriptions, except tlHit he is tall, black and has a beard. The Support Group is holding a benefit for Kenneth Johnson to raise funds and to organize publicized series (CPS) When students begin studying for their first economics exam, chances are they will overlook one very rich lesson in basic supply and demand theory. That textbook, for which the student has probably supplied between $13 to $15 is happily and steadily filling the publisher’s demand. The textbook industry is a financial oasis in the publishing business as new markets open up in adult education, women’s studies and texts which one leading publisher says are down-shifted for the increasing number of junior colleges, community colleges and night school courses. There is also a “return to basics in education philosophy in 1976,” reports Jim Bradford at Scott, Foresman and Co. — publishers. This trend marks a change from the past five years. “In 1971, we were still in Vietnam. Today students are more interested in what this course will do for them in terms of coping With the world. There is a focus on the consumer side of economics,” Bradford stated. Textbooks are being geared more towards practical education. Today a student can open a carpools to go to Court bn Saturday night at, Ed Powell’s house at 124 Jewitt Parkway. , They will also maintain an information table in the center lounge in Norton Union.

The publisher of the college textbook must also deal with an interesting form of rip-off, that of the free sample. Periodically, publishers will distribute thousands of complimentary books to professors for possible sales or reviews. However, these books are often sold to the used book dealer. It costs a publisher between $3 and $5 to give away a S12 text, for example, and often that text ends up on the eyecatching table marked $.60-$.70. Scott, Foresman and Co. recently gave away nearly 10,000 copies of a new biology text but it turned out to be a fruitless endeavor. A source at the that these publishing company reported complimentary editions would probably be sold by the professors for their own profit and cited one instance in which sample books were sold to finance parties. Nevertheless, publishing companies are still priming the textbook market by giving an average advance on a college textbook of S5000 and royalty payments are being doled out at a rate of f 5 percent. There is one encouraging movement by publishers to make textbooks more responsive to classroom audiences. They are arranging a collaboration between the professionally recognized author and the professor at the small community college who is more familiar with his or her classroom audience than the professional, but whose writing ability often keeps that teacher out of the textbook field. drinks draft WHA REA HAP ON CAMPUS?

And for anyone who thought that textbooks existed only for that rare student who is adept at memorizing dates and figures, Prentice-Hall publishers put out a text called Life Insurance that has been selling steadily since 1912. The new edition is priced at SI5.95 and is expected to sell 25,000 copies in 1976. But the words “new edition” are enough to bring tears to the eyes of a student taking introductory courses like economics -or political science. These courses often require texts which are revised regularly and that means that a student as fifty percent. For the publisher, though, the used book business is a pain in the profits.

Child Welfare Agencies Child abuse b real problem Clark Hall Recreation hours cut due to lack of funds by Ed Vasbinder Spectrum Staff Writer Since Thursday, recreation hours at Clark Hall have ended at 7 p.m. instead of 10 p.m. as they have in the past. The cutback in hours was necessitated because there was not enough money to hire another equipment manager The current equipment manager, Joe Staebell, is aided by students, many of whom are on work-study programs. Staebell is currently doing the work of three people, according to Dr. Sal Esposito, chairman of the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Basic Instructions. Esposito explained that he did not feel he could trust the students to hand out or guard thousands of dollars worth of equipment when Staebell was not around. Therefore, he was forced to close Clark Hall at seven, unless a special event was scheduled. Women on loan The situation in the women’s locker room was even worse, according to Esposito. The only full-time worker there is a woman on loan from the maintenance department until 2:30 p.m., but Esposito worried about what would happen if the maintenance department “took her back” or if Staebell got sick. Esposito also said that several men have been seen in the women’s locker room lately, and was worried about a possible rape. That was another reason why he decided to close the gym. Students squeezed “It’s an unfortunate situation,” said Esposito. “We’re asking the students to bear with us. We’re doing the best we can to resolve the situation. It should be resolved in a week or two.” Esposito explained that two more full-time equipment managers would be needed at a minimum, but at the moment, there was no money available to pay them. Esposito said his superiors were looking into it, and that he was optimistic about resolving the situation. , In the meantime, Esposito was trying to change the pool hours (which previously were 7-9 p.m.) and recreation hours so that students could still use Clark Hall as much'as possible. “It’s nobody’s fault,” Esposito reiterated. “We just want the students to bear with us untif we can resolve the situation.” BCOUPON A Gourmet Experience You Should Not Miss! ! ■ z I !

Wednesday, 22 September 1976 Neglected and abused children are the innocent victims who bear the brunt and suffer the consequences of disturbed parents or guardians. All too frequently they have no alternative other than accepting . their plight. These children are the responsibility of society in general and various Child Welfare agencies in particular. The problem of abuse and neglect has become so devastatingly real that New York State has established an “Abuse Registry” in Albany to reported complaints and delegate monitor responsibility for investigation and follow-up to Child Welfare agencies within the various counties. The Erie County Child Welfare Services (ECCWS) focuses on problems ranging from underfed and poorly clothed children to situations involving severe bodily injury. H. Morris Campbell, a Child Welfare Protection worker for Erie County, is charged with the responsibility of making initial contact with parents or guardians and investigating reported incidents of child abuse or neglect. Campbell estimates that approximately half of complaints received by his unit stem from those sources who are required by law to file suspected abuse or neglect reports. .These sources include teachers, doctors, nurses and public employees, among others. Concerned citizens, neighbors and are_ responsible relativ&s for the remaining percentage. Campbell further explained that about fifty percent of the complaints afe valid and require follow-up action. Through counseling and other social work procedures, the majority of these problems can be settled for the mutual benefit of both child and adult. involving ’ child abuse and neglect require action. court ' action is brought by Child Welfare ordered supervision could be Department, recommended or the child may be removed from the home. The former would authorize a Child Welfare worker to visit the home in question on a periodicbasis to monitor the situation and recommend needed changes. A family’s failure to cooperate would dictate a second court appearance that would increase the chances of a child’s removal from his If,court court home. Foster homes widely used Foster homes are perhaps the most widely used short-term solution for the protection of children, Campbell said that a child can remain in a foster home for as long as the court feels that parents or guardians may be capable of reaccepting the child in the future. A prolonged placement Ls subject to periodic judicial review. When a Child Welfare worker concludes, after working with parents or guardians of children who have been placed in foster care that they will never be sufficiently capable of providing adequate care for the child, a “Permanent Neglect Petition” in Family Court is filed. If the ruling of the judge upholds the recommendations of the local agency, an “Adjudication of Permanent Neglect” is issued, a child may be eligible for adoption. An adjudication of permanent neglect is issued only in those cases where no improvement or effort has been demonstrated to correct the problem. Campbell said child abuse and neglect is not limited to particular racial or economic backgrounds. However, he has found from his experience that neglect is more prevelent in single-parent households. A witness of child abuse or neglect of someone who suspects its existence is asked to contact the Any legal means Campbell said thirty percent of the complaints toll-free registry (800) 342-3720) or the local Child received by the Erie County Child Welfare Services Welfare Intake Unit. �Bethune vending machines remain unused in basement not being used.” He also added that water isn’t very accessible hindrance with, potential office storage space. (The relocation of these machines is possible in the near future.) Larry Zimmerman, Assistant to the Dean of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, initially recommended that the machines be disconnected. “For two years we have been listening to cascading soda pops and the noise from congregating students, and last year we put an end to it.” He explained that the walls around the vending area are made out of baseboard, a material which sound easily penetrates, and it Was almost impossible for instructors to teach in a nearby lecture hall.

Last year, Zimmerman and former Art Department chairman Willard Harris decided on the front section of Bethune Hall’s basement for the vending machines. The area was turned down by the Environmental Health and Safety officer because “the area was lacking adequate space for egress,” he said. Earlier this month a new area in the basement was designated for vending purposes,, and was accepted by the Environmental Health and Safety Council for use as such. “The problem now is that we can’t get we clean up people who together so anything done until the area and get the have the authority we can make some Dismal weekend for teams It was a dismal weekend for the Buffalo Bulls. Six teams went out on the road last Friday and Saturday, and only one, the women’s tennis team, came up a winner. The female tennis squad opened their season at Houghton,, where they took , the rain-shortened affair, 4-2. Buffalo’s top three netters could not manage a victory, although in fairness, it should be noted that Carol Waddell was leading 7-6, 1-1 before rain ended her match with a “no-decision.” . The Bulls’ strength was their doubles teams and the bottom of their singles lineup. Buffalo’s Carol Eisanmon and Carol Jaffee each scored two-set shutouts over their opponents. First doubles, team Joanne Wroblewski and April Zolczer easily defeated Houghton’s best pair, while Karen Wymer and Kathy Ryan, Buffalo’s second doubles team, also Were victorious. “We have a great deal of depth,” said Bulls coach Betty Dimmick., “That’s why our fourth and fifth singles and second doubles were able to win. 1 think that’s going to be a big factor this year.” Dimmick added that four players did not make the trip for various reasons and that the team’s lineup was still not set. Dimmick said that the Bulls would continue to play challenge matches but by the end of the week, the team’s lineup should be set. The women’s field hockey team, also in their season’s opener, succumbed to Houghton 6-1. Houghton took a 5-0 first half lead, but the Bulls made some adjustments, and played an even game the second half. Nancy Wallace scored Buffalo’s only Buffalo’s baseball team dropped to 3-4 this fall when Niagara won 8-7.

The hills were the main cause of the Bulls’ downfall, since they have no hills to practice on here in Buffalo. “We run up a curb and that's our hill,” Gantz joked. “I checked their splits (times] and they were much faster on the flat parts than on the hills.” Gantz also claimed that many of the Bulls were not in such good shape, and that they would have finished closer to Niagara if the hills and lack of conditioning hadn’t worn them down. Syracuse continued their jinx in soccer, beating Buffalo 3-1. The Bulls have never beaten the Orangemen in soccer. The Astroturf in Syracuse played havoc, causing the ball to take far too many unusual , bounces. “No matter what happens, something comes along to take it (the win) away," said Bulls coach Sal Esposito, noting that the Astroturf disrupted the Bulls passing game. Their only goal came on a break-away by Paul Kubicki. ITS ALMOST THAT TIME AGAIN cont/ws Advanced«Scientific 500 HP-21 HP-22 HP-25 decisions.

Prepared by the Regents State Education Department staff, the plan’s most controversial proposal is for an immediate end to construction at all state campuses, based on predicted continuing declines in enrollments; The construction moratorium and the rest of the REgents plan have been sharply denounced in an extraordinary series of public from SUNY statements Boyer, Chancellor Ernest individual campus presidents and representatives of the student governments. At this University, the plan once again throws into question the ultimate time of completion of the, Amherst Campus, and for this reason it was condemned by President Robert Ketter at public hearings hfeld in Buffalo earlier GSEU asks for a meeting with Somit act was '.further to diminished. ■ GSEU Organizing Secretary Officials of the Graduate Tom Muka was skeptical of the Union sincerity of Ketter’s reply. In an Employees Student interview with The Spectrum, ite meeting a requested have (GSEU) just with Acting University President stated, “President Ketter' was image the of an portraying attempt to Somit, an in Albert make their concerns and priorities empathetic administrator in an known to the administration early attempt to appease the graduate in the school year.

Contributing Editor I —' — ability by Dimitri Papodopoulos • • .... The specific issues that will be brought up at the meeting include 1) open access to University information, 2) tuition waivers, 3) delays in distribution of first to graduate student employees, 4) wage problems, income tax which infclude four-year complications and assistance for graduate students, 5). oversized classes and the paychecks resultant increased workload for Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants )GA), 6) health insurance, and 7) official GSEU recognition. This plan, according to GSEU President Howie Kling, is an effort to follow-up last year’s efforts, which were. for the most part ineffectual. Last year’s petition listed five demands that are basically similar to the meeting topics. Unable and powerless One of the important GSEU demands of last year that was not for plea was the repeated restoration of the 165 Peaching and Gradual® Assistarttships Assistantships that were eliminated as a result of budget cuts. Another important feature of last year’s petition was the threat to strike if Ketter had failed to act upon the problems by last April 2. Responding to the petition, Ketter told Kling in a letter last February that, “It would be ludicrous to attempt to answer these demands . . . because as demands, I cannot meet them. As concerns, I can share them and continue my efforts to alleviate but the problems they cause only to the extent of my authority in each issue.” the five issues, Regarding Ketter felt “unable and powerless to make such decisions.” Ketter said that since the GSEU is not officially recognized by the Public Employees Relations Bureau, his - public and accreditation requirements unless between the is independent sectors can no longer Amherst Campus the completed.

Vice President Betty Cochran said the administration teaching the and considers research work TAs and GAs do for professors part of a graduate GSEU student’s education. But the TAs and GAs claim that this work is necessary to the University, and therefore should be paid for. They feel they have been put in a situation where they can be “exploited as cheap labor.” A GSEU newsletter charged, “The administration gives them the opportunity to gain experience for their degree work, but does not consider their unique needs as students.” GSEU was formed in 1974 in response to reductions in wages caused by inflation and increasing cutbacks. The budgetary organization’s plans this year include upholding its original fight for high quality and accessible public higher education. Cochran felt that GSEU’s role was “three-fold.” “It takes interest in departmental issues. University wide issues and events that take place outside of campus,” she explained. Cochran cited as an example of GSEU’s off-campus responsibility its support of the Teachers Federation of Buffalo. She felt that the Buffalo teachers’ strike echoed the same plea as the GSEU’s. GSEU’s support for the recently dissolved Social Science College and the Office for Foreign Students marks its ties with University issues, she said. fAs and GAs receive a minimum salary oi $3,90Q(fAs teach approximately 40 percent total of th? undergraduate courses, including the majority of the freshman and courses in many sophomore departments.

Autonomy shaken While the Regents plan calls for planning between cooperative public and private institutions, and state funding of private colleges on a “cost of instruction” basis, they say that “public support for higher education is most often focused on developing public institutions.” The Director Budget projects a of the decreasing share of public funds for education, the report ads. against this Arguing philosophy, Ketter’ told the value “The Regents, desirability of; interdependency Buffalo's Emerald City materialized two years ago in the shape of the Ellicott Complex.

Specifics as to how the program will be handled have not been completely worked out thus far, indicated Luther doses by Christmas University Health Services will begin the innoculation program soon after the Erie County Health Department receives its serum shipments. The innociilation is not mandatory and should not be administered to people who are allergic to eggs (the vaccine is produced inside eggs). It is also not advisable for children under the age of three. The vaccination has been found to, be most effective in people over twenty-three. It has produced high fevers in a small percentage of volunteers under the age of eighteen. Some health specialists feel people between eighteen and twenty-five may need two injections in order to successfully combat the disease. Musselman, Director of University Health Services. The Health Services plan is part of a nationwide alert, aimed at fighting the feared influenza epidemic. The new flu strain, which was discovered at the Fort Dix military installation in New Jersey last March, killed one soldier, and afflicted one hundred others. It generated so much concern because it is closely related to the 1918-19 influenza pandemic that killed 548,000 people in the United States alone. But since the Fort Dix incident however, not one case has been found in the world. Thus, many doctors and health officials, among them Dr. Albert Sabin, developer of the oral polio vaccine, feel President Ford’s 135 million dollar to innoculate every person in the country against the disease may be unnecessary with the possibility of an epidemic now , / slim. The Federal government will begin distributing the first batch of twenty to thirty million vaccines October 1 and hopes to distribute one hundred million University flu clinics Clinics will be set up by the University Health Service on both the Main Street and Amherst cmapuses to vaccinate students. The University has allocated money for the purchase of hypodermic jet-guns which are far more efficient than the- usual_one-shot hypodermic needle. Health Service officials are debating the question of immunizing relatives of staff, faculty, and students free of charge. A new strain of influenza usually develops somewhere on the globe every eight to twelve years. The last major outbreak of flu virus in the United Stateswas during 1968 and 1969, called “Hong Kong A” which was responsible for the deaths of 70,000 lives and cost an estimated 3.8 billion dollars in lost man-hours. The new mutated flu virus obtained its name of “Swine Flu” because it is similar to a virus that is usually only contagious to hogs,' although people who work with swine have been known to be infected. University Health Services Director, Luther Musselman, doubts there will be a flu epidemic this fall. Nevertheless he plans to be immunized purely as a precautionary measure, and strongly recommends that others do the same.

Castillo had worked for the Ministry of Public Works under Allende repairing highways, general doing and bridges maintenance work. He explains that he was just one of 15,000 public employees (out of 40,000) who were fired after the coup for sympathy towards the Allende government. Castillo charged that his trial was a farce, and that he was convicted and sentenced to 17 years in prison.

Castillo said that thd economy is stagnant and opposition to the government is very widespread. Many working youth were admitted to the universities under Allende, Castillo said, but most have been expelled now. Castillo studied history in night school under this program several years ago. Castillo said that under Allende, wages were raised for most workers, and unemployment was cut sharply. Workers could trade unions and organize participate in progressive political activities against the monopolies with government encouragement. This caused a rise in right-wing activity, Castillo explained, and concerted efforts were made to Unity weaken the Popular economic but put government. their lives,” Castillo concluded, and that is why many workers supported his government.

One of the conditions could be met if the voters in 1976 end the present stalemated split government in Washington. We have almost forgotten what it is to have a President and Congress of the same party, the score was President Ford boasts of his vetoes 56 last week, (f'iixon vetoed only 43 bills in five and a half years). The United States is patient under this stalemate, has almost learned to like it. It would throw any other country into anarchy. SUNY students can be grateful, however, that so far Chancellor Ernest Boyer, the campus presidents and student government representatives have taken a strong, vocal stand against the report. Additionally, students here should take heart at President Robert Ketter's able critique of the report and its possible disasterous consequences for the already lorig-delayed completion of the Amherst campus. Ketter's evaluation of the relation between public and private education was particularly worthy of praise. His questioning between the Regents the two interdependence acceptance of essentially correct; is why halt the development of SUNY, in which so much has already been invested, to offset the effects of a debatable, and at most temporary, drop in enrollment? Why squeeze the middle income families, who still cannot qualify for financial aid resources, just so more will considerysendinjg their children to private schools? Surely solutions must be found to the financial'difficuIties of our private colleges. But "closing the gap" in the cost of public and private higher education is an inhuman as it is extreme. We strongly urge the students and officers of SUNY to persist in their criticism of this misguided policy. We also urge the Regents, “The institutional structure bequeathed to twentieth century America by the eighteenth century is more complex than that of any other democratic country in the world,” writes James L. Sundquist in a new Brookings compendium; “Setting National Priorities: the Next Ten Years.” Political adaptation to technical change in the United States doesn’t flow in an orderly stream; it comes jerkily, in pulses, more often than not depending on the accident of whether President and Congress are in rapport. “For 14 of.the past 22 years, the executive and the legislature have confronted .one another across not only an institutional but also a partisan political gulf," says Sundquist. What he means is that we had Eisenhower for six of eight years with a Democratic Congress, and Nixon-Ford for eight years with a Democratic Congress and only one interval' 1960-68, with one party responsibility. it is universally taken for granted here that the new Congress is going to be. Democratic: will it continue to function with President Ford who delights in vetoing its proposals and who has'taken virtually no domestic initiative of his own, or will it* be working with a President of its own party? In short, will it give Jimmy Carter an opportunity to change things if he can and wants to? Rival Presidents and Congresses can cooperate, of course: Truman fashioned (he Marshall Plan with the hated Republican_80lh Congress, but (hat was in time of crisis; Ike, got on well enough with three Democratic Congresses largely because he didn,’t want to do anything anyway And because the nation was catching its breath after the war. But things genefally are more complicated. There have been glorious spurts of reform and modernization; what is extraordinary is how brief these intervals are. Woodrow Wilson caught up with a generation of lethargy; his first term 6riacted the Federal Reserve System, the revolutionary Underwood Tariff, regulations of big business (Clayton anti-trust. Federal Trade Commission, banking laws); he got an 8-hour day pn railways, excluded . child labor products from interstate commerce, poured out federal aid to highways, put farm agents in every rural country, over-rode states’ rights and directed millions to vocational and agricultural education. It was a bracing period of social catch-up before the gloomy war closed in. Roosevelt’s New Deal, of course, was the second episode. Most of it came in a great leap. The country was in terrible shape and ready for change. Poor Hoover was making statements that sounded very much like {hose today. “This campaign is more than a contest between two meYi,”. said in his wind-up campaign “It is nfore than a contest between parties. It is a contest betweemtwo philosophies of government . . . You cannot extend the mastery of government over the daily life of a people without somewhere making it master of people’s souls and thoughts.” How similar that is to Mr. Ford’s favorite (and irrefutable) warning that a government strong enough to give a nation everything it wants is strong enough to take away everything it has! No one can deny if. It is Mr. Ford’s protest at being jolted ahead too fast. The second great legislative spurt in this country was the New Deal. In a kind of conclusive hurst it gave the country TVA (Hoover had vetoed the Muscle Shoals Bill); the Social Security Act; the National Labor Relations Board (Wagner Act); legislation putting Federal support under the banks, security markets, the farms, and all the rest. Three the legislation preserved the things were implicit capitalistic economy; it was inevitable; it followed the American tradition. Many of the new ideas were old stuff in Furppe and Canada. FDR helped America overcome an immense legislative lag and was, of course, reviled all the way. The third big spurt of this century was the Kennedy-Johnson initial period the Civil Rights Act, Peace Corps, Economic Opportunity Act, floor under poverty, and all the rest. Kennedy was the first to use a budget deficit purposely to cure a slump and gave the nation the largest, expansion in modern times. Congress and White House were of the same party. As happens under our strange divided system, strewn with its vetoes, (committee. House, Senate and White House) all circumstances have to be just right for major forward movement, and then it comes spasmodically, in a Hoover — burst. What’s /' of anything like that happening now? One requirement would be, of course, to have President and Congress of the same party, which means electing Jimmy Carter, which, in this ticket-splitting era, is by no means certain ' despite the polls. The next question is, are changes needed? The answer is, the times cry for them! Welfare is a holy mess; the tax system aches for reform, every other country has governmental registration of voters (the lack of which is one reason for the disgracefully low American-voter turn-out); cities are going down l)ill; hand gun registration shouts for enactment; the growing poverty gap is alarming; 40 percent teen-age black unemployment in the ghettoes means trouble . . . You fill out the list. There’s one other point. Irr that rare concentration of political circumstances, a new President, work to be done, a united government cbuld Jimmy Carter do it? I don’t know.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief., Republication Page six . defended The Spectrum . Monday, 20 September 1976 I am compelled to reply to a letter to the Editor by Mr. Charlie Goldberg in your September 13 issue entitled “Comparative Banking.” The “rip-off” to which Mr. Goldberg refers apparently has to do with our practice of requiring ten calendar days for clearance of personal checks drawn on a local (Buffalo) bank and 20 calendar days for those drawn on an out of town bank. This practice is applied to all customers in the same manner. U has stood the test of time in reducing risk and internal problems, to a minimum. While it is recognized that personal checks are collected in less than ten days and twenty days, before we, the depositor bank, are notified of an uncollected item by our correspondent bank, it may very well take longer than ten or twenty days. In fact, we have experienced this very thing. However, it is not uncommon for the Manager or Assistant Manager to handle immediate student needs for books, etc., on an exception basis. We try to do our best in this regard without undue risk to the Association. On the subject of free checking, no minimum balance and faster service, I'd like to point out that ‘ being a federally chartered institution, we are prohibited from offering checking accounts in any form by federal statute. Congress may change this in the near future, but until it dpes we must comply with the law. There are no minimum balance requirements for our savings accounts except that balances less than S10 do not earn interest. Please take note that in a day-to-day account your deposits earn interest to the day of withdrawal at the current rate of 5.25% annual, compounded daily, which is more than any commercial bank is permitted to pay by law on a similar Type account (currently the commercial bank maximum is 5.00%). Crediting occurs at the end of each calendar quarter except that in the event of a complete close-out, interest is automaticlaly figured and creditejd to the day of withdrawal, which is another convenience not offered by many institutions in town. We have attempted to improve services by increasing staff and making use of a corral type teller line. If you have experienced delays in service, it may have been during the initial days of registration when we are exceptionally busy. If delays persist, I would be pleased to hear from you. J it seems to me a walk across the street is a pretty good deal which offers .25% on your money for every day it’s on deposit. Very truly yours, Robert W.

There were virtually no lines for I.D.’s when 1 went, and my 15 minute wait was a fraction of last year’s marathon. Part of the trick is knowing when which lines are shortest. Still, 1 am sure that somehow things are running quicker and more smoothly this fall.

I joined the Walk and accompanied Clyde for three days. For sightseers we were quite a sight! Seven ot us walked along the Boulevard, each carrying a placard.

Ted Vanderlann Since the hunting season begins anew, a few words must be said in behalf of those at the wrong end of the hunter's gun. Beyond all of the statistical jargon that encompasses the issue of hunting, there remains one simple, undeniable belief, or truth, namely: the right to life. Who has the right to,take away life, be it a man’s or beast's?Conservation rhetoric will not suffice to answer this question. Only moral insight and humane concern can. Nevertheless, the hunting war bfegins October I, Man and beast will die. Animal liberators and vegetarians will scream. Conservationists will, in turn, scream. But a simple truth quietly whimpers in a way that I cringe from it’s deafening sound. Mark Ginsberg H.A.R.C. SCATE is voluntary To the Editor or Due to my inability to meet with your reporter, erroneous information was given and printed in regards to the upcoming student referendums. Work is being done to,review and upgrade the SCATI magazine, but we have no intentions of questioning students if they feel the process should be mandatory or not, SCATI is a voluntary process on the part of the professor, and will continue to be so. Although President (setter has mandated that some form of departmental evaluation is mandatory, we realize the professor, for whatever reason, has the fight- to decide if others should see those evaluations not. We do, however, active encourage participation, and feel that students have the right to see those responses. It is, as noted earlier, and will remain a voluntary evaluation process, although we hope every professor on campus will understand its significance to the student, and to effective teaching. Secondly, the referendum question on the three contact hour/four credit system will not be on the ballot. Instead, there .will be a question concerning the abolition of the Social Sciences College and student feeling on the subject. Director oj Audrey Lalonde Academic A ffairs for war.

Monday, 20 September 1976 . �is hopeful about coming season Golf coach Cross-country Team conquers Geneseo, beginning the new season It was a very young Buffalo golf team that began its season last week, and as one expects of young teams, they have room to improve. One week ago, they lost their first match to St. Bonaventure 401-409. On Thursday, Gannon topped the Bulls 374-386 at the Amherst-Audubon Golf Course in Williamsville. Bulls coach Bill Dando, who has won more than 90 percent of his matches in his five previous yfcars as coach, explained that only one member of last year’s team returned. Two others transferred, while still others did not return for various reasons. “We’re very young,” Dando said, “and we’re playing with unknown quantities.” Because of this, Dando felt the Bulls performed well. “We could beat a lot of teams with those scores,” he said. “We’ve got to get those 80’s out. You can’t win with scores in the 80’s.” Randy Romal, for example, shot an 84 against Gannon, but Dando felt it might have been just a bad day. “Randy’s had a 73 or 74 out here,” Dando noted. Joe Ganucci and John Fanolari also had Scores in the eighties against Gannon which Dando hopes will drop. The only returning player is Mike Hirsch, who was also one of Bulls top golfers last year. Hirsch logged a team best three over par 73 against Gannon, and his 80 at St. Bonaventure was' second on the Bulls by Ronhy Oppenheimer Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo cross-country team, under the auspices of rookie coich Walter Gantz, opened its season last Wednesday with an impressive 24—33 victory over Geneseo State. It was an inspiring event for Gantz’ young team who promise to develop and “improve with age like a mellow wine,” as the coach put it. Mike Fischer, from Bishop Newman and Williamsville, was the personal victor of the race, coasting around the picturewque course of wood and hill in a time of 33 minutes and 13 seconds. Bob Howard finished third twelve seconds later, just beating out the kick of one of Geneseo’s strong finishers. Overkll the Bulls took six of, the top ten places, all with times under thirty-six and one-half minutes. The race began quickly as the runners rounded the mile marker with freshman Chris Lehman leading with a time of 5;02. Five of the next six runners were 6ulls, all with sub-six minute miles. By the time they reached the second mile of the six-mile course the lead had changed, but not the pace. Fischer led the pack with a time of 10:t)5. to Perry Novak’s 79. Dando was still optimistic al out the remainder of the season, figuring that the yourlger players vould improve with experience over the long schedule. The Bulls pla eleven matches, in addition to the EC AC qualifying tournament and the EC AC Championships. The coach also issued a call for more golfers, saying it’s not too late to come out for the team. ‘*I’m willing to give anyone a look,” he said. “There are probably a lot of good golfers out there who don’t think they’re good enough to make the teim.” , ' Weak finish The runners now headed into the woods, but the pattern of the race was set. They jogged around the Amherst Campus past Sweet Home High School, past the finish line and around the woods once more before coming in Tor the home stretch. This was the Bulls’ weakest point. Only Gantz, a marathoner himself, having run the last five Boston Marathons, will have to work at finishing strong if the team is to improve. Fischer finished fairly strongly, but Howard barely staved off his pursuer. Tom Pitchford, another young runner, was edged out for the eighth place on an amazing kick by Geneseo’s Tony Foumichella. Geneseo coach Marty Kettner’s ga O'Connor's Mobil Service 614 Millersport —John squad finished strongly, but the'Bulls’ lead was too great. (comer of Eggert) ' After it was over, the elated coach said, “It’s obvious to me that these men ran extremely hard. The times were extra good, especially for this time of the year. The guys look like they ran their hearts out and they ran all six miles.

One has to question the timing of the current referendum. During each of the t\vo years, there had been previous something of a movement on once because try to bring back football of the efforts of Charles Ciotta, who has since disappeared into anonymity, and last because of the campus sports paper Bullpen. Each of those efforts failed, so why does the Student Association (SA) think there will be a change now? This year there has not been' the slightest mention of football around the gym or anywhere else, as far as I know. Suddenly, SA is holding a referendum on What’s this? should-we-have-football — and one has to ask, again, Paperwork Does the SA really want to know if see football back? people would like Have they been deluged with letters supporting football? I doubt it. SA is usually deluged with letters, supporting apathy, if nothing else. Or does SA simply want to cause trouble for itself? According to Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia, the paperwork that would be necessary under TitllX regulations would be enormous (and ludicrous), should the referendum pass. Next semester, every student would have to fill out a preference questionnaire in order to register. This questionnaire would have to ask (under law) such absurd questions as, "Should we have a women’s football team, in addition to the men’s to. team?” With 14,000 students replying, SA would be deluged with paperwork. Then, there is the problem that only a very few people would vote, whereas a random survey of the students would provide a more representative answer. games at the MemorialAuditorium.

The team registered its first win of the new campaign, and Coach Tom LaPenna scored his maiden victory as the new coach of the men’s tennis squad. The match versus Niagara was decided early. The Bulls were intent on pciking up their first win against three tough losses. (The third loss was against powerful Rochester, which crushed Buffalo by a score of 9-0.) The final score of the contest was 6-3, ahd as LaPenna predicted, his mainstays on the team came through. Buffalo’s Bill Cose, who was playing first singles for the second consecutive semester, demolished his opponent by scores of 6—0, 6—0, while Camptain Rob Burbacki, the second singles man, also dominated his opponent, winning two sets 6-1, 6-1. Later in the afternoon, the two victors combined in a doubles match which was never really in doubt The score was 6—1, 6—0, with the Buffalo men on top again. Jack Kaminski, playing third singles for the Bulls, also made LaPenna proud. Kaminski won his Two match soundly by scores of 6—3 and 6—0. Kaminski and Baughn also proceeded to parlay their skills in a doubles match. The combination of their talents blended perfectly as they took their contest' by scores .of 6—3, 7—6. Coach is overjoyed After being beaten so badly by Rochester, the Bulls came to the match with high hopes. The men from Niagara were out-played, out-hustled and out-psyched. The first and second- singles from Niagara were handled by Cole and Burbacki, which prompted LaPenna to remark about Cole: He s the most beautiful player to watch. His form is so smooth and perfect that, it tends to relax the spectators.” Overall, it was an impressive and satisfying win for LaPenna and his athletes, who finally got into the plus column. LaPenna was ecstatic about the victory, stating, “It feels just great to get my first I win]as a huge grin came across his face.

Only Joseph Williams, formerly director and one of three office counselors, still services foreign students. “The office has been completely decentralized,” said Williams. "Students now have to help from a variety of get sources.” Instead of receiving assistance from *a central office, foreign students must now visit a different campus agency with each problem. Williams contends that this method is “inefficient for the student” because the various campus offices “do not know the total student.” He added that the cutbacks have caused a general feeling of disappointment in many of the older foreign students. Assertiveness training Insecure? Timid? Meek ? Now there is help on the wap salesmen is not as practical outside the realm of comic strip life. by John.Hess Spectrum Staff Writer never say no,” one often hears. it is murmured about food or recreation. However, more often than not, the circumstance is a social one, one human being afraid to speak out against others. Recently a number of programs have branched out to rectify this situation; assertiveness training teaches one to say no. The Assertiveness Training Program at this University offers undergraduate students the chance to learn how to integrate assertive skills into their behavior. Applying “different treatment modalities,” the training is pragmatically oriented, trying to touch the immediate lives of the participants in common conflicts and social situations. The program, led by Lelise Amstein, is conducted free of charge and specifically geared for men and women between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight. The training tries to> teach the unassertive person how to “cOpe.” The student whose hand quiveringly hesitates in the lecture hall when a point needs clarification, the girlfriend who grinds her teeth on certain remarks and inferences rather than voice protest, the shopper that will keep a defective item rather than going.through the hassle of returning it these all suggest non-assertive behavior. “I can Occasionally - Basic rights But assertive behavior concerns itself more with a person’s rights. A classic example of the three behaviors can be found in that opening week of school; after waiting in a line for an hour and a half, students begin to discover a new form they haven’t mqch less heard of. Non-assertive filled out people, reaching the front of the line, would perhaps turn away when they learned of their error. Perhaps they would ask a vague question, feel a bit self-conscious, and curse themselves later on for not gaining the necessary information. Aggressive students in the identical situation would insist that somehow they be compensated for the long wait; their face might grow red and in an increasingly loud voice they might demand to get the business taken care of. Threats might be shouted. These students would be persistent; even if they must ask a question twice, they would not feel out of place because they would know they were getting the information correctly. Assertive students would know they deserve directions, and would thus take advantage of their rights. Inappropriate legislative action Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow said the OFSA “was eliminated by an Joseph Williams service from the the dorm, and are provided with activities, parties and an orientation program. foreign ' On-campus student has been virtually housing unaffected.

Moynihan and Buckley victors in state primary by Daniel Parker Spectrum Staff Writer Former Ambassador to the United Nations Daniel Patrick Moynihan narrowly defeated Congresswoman Bella Abzug of Manhattan by a 36 to 35 percent margin in Tuesday’s primary election. Pending an official recount of the vote tally, Moynihan will /ace incumbent Senator James Buckley in the November election. Buckley easily defeated Representative Peter Peyser of Irvington for the Republican nomination. Moynihan, who served in the Kennedy, Nixon and Ford administrations, became widely known for his staunch support of Israel while ambassador to the UN. Abzug had stressed the idea that, “It’s time a woman served in the Senate.” Three / other candidates (former Attorney General Ramsey Clark; Paul O’Dwyer, New York City Council President; and self-made businessman Abe Hirschfeld) split the remainipg vote with Clark in getting a slight edge over the other two contestants. Mudslinging The turnout for . the primaries was as expected, with approximately 25 percent of the registered Democratic voters and 15 percent of the registered Republicans exercising their rights. The basic similarities -between the candidates led to “mudslinging” rather than actual debating of issues. Because of similar views on the issues, the candidates were often seeking votes from the same groups. On the last day of the campaign, both Moynihan and Abzug were campaigning in the garment center of New York City seeking the “Jewish vote.” According to a poll taken by the New York Times, 40 percent of women voting preferred Abzug and 30 percent preferred Moynihan. received major newspapers, endorsements from large Moynihan getting the backing of The New York Times, while Abzug received the endorsement of the New York Post. The candidates ran neck and neck in New York City and its surrounding suburbs with Moynihan receiving a slight edge upstate. In Erie County, where Moynihan received endorsement of Erie County the Chairman Joseph Democratic Party Crangle, Abzug surprised the experts with an upset win. Both Candidates comments Both Moynihan and Abzug aroused sentiments by changing public positions. Moynihan stated he would not seek the Senatorial ■ nomination’ after his strong pro-Israel stand and resignation from the UN. Abzug said she would not support Moynihan if he won the senatorial nomination. Abzug’s comment could have cut severely into her chances, causing O’Dwyer supporters to vote for Moynihan in hope of preventing another split election 1970. The Democratic Party, like presently, is not unified in New York State. * During the campaign, Moynihan called for “an American society worth defending with strong domestic, military and foreign policy.” Abzug proposed “more than $5 billion in new federal programs for New York State and thousands of new jobs.” Clark favored restoring “integrity in government” and O’Dwyer ran on his record of civil rights, labor and concern for Israel and Ireland. Hirschfeld a businessman in “putting recommended office” so he could represent the people. Hirschfeld was the only Democratic candidate who supported a “pro-life” amendment to the Constitution against abortion. Few upsets in N.Y. primary in the 57th District, south of Buffalo. Thomas Rotondo of Lockport defeated James Stewart for by Paul Dlugosz Spectrum Staff Writer In primary elections in several states Tuesday, Democratic Senators Edward Kennedy and Hubert Humphery were among the incumbents who were renominated. House Majority Leader Thomas O’Neill (D., Mass.) won despite the anti-bussing votes in his Boston district. Former U.N. Ambassador Daniel P. Moynihan narrowly defeated Rep. Bella Abzug for the Democratic nomination to face incumbent Republican James Buckley in the race for the United States Senate seat in New York. In the state-wide primaries held Tuesday only about 25 percent of the registere,d'Democrats and 15 percent of the Republicans voted. There were few upsets in the races, in which incumbents generally turned back challenges for judgeships, congressional and State legislature seats. In New York City, Democratic Representatives Herman Badillo and Shirley Chisholm were renominated. Representative Henry Nowak, Buffalo Democrat, won a chance for a second term by defeating Charles Poth III by a 3 to 1 margin in the 37th Congressional District. the Democratic nomination in the 60th District, which includes Niagara County. Strong showing Richard Okoniewski, appointed to a vacant Common Council seat in January after losing his seat in the 1975 primary, won the right to run again on the Democratic line for the Councilman-aMarge position irt Buffalo. With an almost 2 to 1 victory margin over Thomas Vanderlip. In the Democratic Primary for City Cpurt Justice, Anthony P. LoRusso, who had cross-filed in the Republican, Conservative and Liberal lines, finished in the top 3 in a 6-person race. LoRusso is virtually certain of election in November because he was unopposed on the Liberal and and wort the Republican primary. Democratic organization-backed candidates Wilbur Trammel and Joseph Forma also were nominated. Barbara Sims, also endorsed by the GOP, came surprisingly close with a fourth place finish. The strong ihowings by Trammel and Sims, both of whom are mack, were attributed by Republican spokespersons to be partially a result of the heavy turnout of blacks for the Tauriello-Messiah race. A possible strong turnout by women was,, theorized by Erie County Democratic Chairman Joseph Crahgle for Bella Abzug’s upset victory in Erie County. She polled 17,379 votes, compared to 16,623 for Moynihan and 10,429 for Ramsey Clark. Crangle, who directed Moynihan’s statewide campaign, devoted considerable time to the New York City area while Abzug, with the help of Lieutenant Governor Maryanne Krupsak, spent considerable time in upstate counties. Ramsey Clark carried the mainly black council districts in Buffalo, Moynihan carried South Buffalo; Abzug, districts in Buffalo’s East and West sides. Senator Buckjey won easily in both the city and county with 2 to 1 margins over Rep. Perer Peyser in the Republican Few surprises In Erie .County, nearly all of the organization-endorsed candidates won nomination. State Senator Joseph Tauriello (D., Buffalo) defeated Frank Messiah in the 55th District of the City of Buffalo, 10,740 to 9244 votes. Tauriello based his race on opposition to bussing for integration, and getting trtore state aid for the city. His opponent was supported by Arthur 0. Eve (D., Buffalo), the only black state legislator from upstate New York whose assembly district overlaps Tauriello’s Senate district.

I expect to see a good deal of the students,” he concluded. Spectrum Thomas Headrick, former Academic Affairs Vice President at Lawrence University, has been appointed dean of the Law School here, filling the vacancy left by Richard Schwartz who Dr. resigned the post last year. In explaining his acceptance of the post, Headrick said, “I have attracted by the Law School here.” “More than any other school in the country, this school has a chance to be an excellent school, a distinctive school,” he said, citing its interdisciplinary program as orte of its strongest assets. Overcrowded classes Headrick was an assistant dean at Stanford University Law School in California from 1967 to 1970 where in addition to his administrative duties, he taught an undergraduate course on urban riots and the legal system. Prior to that he wbrked as a management consultant in London, a practicing lawyer in San Prancis«> and as a law clerk for a Supreme Xkmrt Judge in the state of Washing*4ft.

Courses in the program include Introduction to Law and ihe Legal Process, The Legal Problems of Public Schools; Women and the Law, and Freedo'm of Expression., Recently the program has been scaled down due to the shortage of faculty. Headrick would like very much to see it built up again, in the future. “1 do see the Law School as part of the University. 1 can think of no truly great law school which is not part of a great university.

To illustrate the traditional case method approach, Headrick offered the following example; A Mr. X has been arrested for shoplifting. He has been tried, sentenced. guilty and found However Mr. X feels that the trial has in some way been unjust. He can bring an appeal to an Appellate Court. The judges of this court will then hand down an opinion regarding his case. “We do undergraduate have a Legal ».

He must make sure the machinery operates well,” Headrick said. Regarding interaction with students, Headrick pointed out that as vice president for Academic Affairs at Lawrence University, he had a great deal of himself to the Addressing problem of overcrowded classes, he said, “There are some classes which are just too big." He cited rise in the rapid student enrollment and the corresponding slower rate of faculty growth as the cause Headrick outlined a new for third year law students where, they are given an opportunity to supplement their classroom studies with first-hand program working experience. This innovation is being “adopted at more and more law schools, but it especially well developed at SUNY at Buffalo Law School,” he is stated. Non-traditional methods non-traditional Concerning methods law, of teaching Headrick said that there are currently small seminars which CAC in need of volunteers Wednesday and Thursday of this week marked the beginning of the semi-annual volunteer drive of the Community Action 'Corps (CAC). The drive, chaired by CAC Assistant. Director Carolyn McGuffog, featured a desk in Norton staffed by CAC activity coordinators. CAC involves about 1500 volunteers annually. The program offered this year i§ “unique because of the diversity of services to the Buffalo offered community,” reports Director Drew Mendoza. AH CAC members, including without stipends. The average volunteer puts in at least four hours a week. This translates into over 6000 voluntary person hours a week in the various projects CAC undertakes, Mendoza said. In spite of this record, CAC took a 33 percent cut in funding this year, one of the largest percentage cuts of any Student Association (SA) funded organization. Even with these limitations, CAC is planning new programs this semester. Students from the Black Student Union (BSU) will be involved in CAC projects. Mendoza felt this program will serve a dual function; not only will it aid BSU in its community involvement, but it will also facilitate communication among SA .funded organizations. In the past, CAC has worked with other student organizations, including PODER and Legal Aid. New programs CAC'is initiating projects in the area of legal welfare. They are sponsoring a Pen-Pal program with inmates at Attica Stale Prison, which, according to Coordinator Richard Berlin, will require a two year commitment on the part of the volunteer. The program will also involve visits to the inmate. The Legal Welfare projects also include a tutorial program with a downtown Buffalo Halfway House, which will offer a high school equivalency diploma and limited college courses. Activities include chess and planned basketball games with Attica inmates, programs with Youth House clients, and a tutorial program for Attica inmates. The Social Action program, to Co-coordinator according Sandy Greer, deals with social issues too often dropped after a period of heavy initial publicity. Programs located at the West’ Side Civic Center dealing with Food Stamps and Housing and Welfare information are conducted as part of the social action program. A new project fof the Social Action Corps is the formation of a “Women’s Awareness Alliance,” an alternative forum on an academic and community level. Counseling The Recreation Program is sponsoring a Sunday mornirig basketball league for inner-city youth to be held at,Clark Hall. In the planning stages, are volleyball and gymnastics programs for underprivileged youth. CAC is involved in drug and in the youth counseling community. Besides Sunshine House, which is well known to the University community, CAC is involved in counseling programs at the Erie County Rehab Center, Compass House, and Community Counseling Centers, among other places. of CAC areas Other involvement are day care, legal programs, educational prograjns and health care. Next month CAC, in conjunction with th£ will Organization, Circle K a 72-hour dance sponsor marathon to benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association.

William Hinton, a respected “China expert,” and a socialist, lived in China for more than ten years until 1947, much of that time in the areas liberated by the Communist armies during World War II. In 1949 he authored the book Fanshen, describing the first early steps toward creating the new society in a peasant village. He has since written other books, especially on the Cultural agriculturally. The ‘two line’ struggle The lecture quickly zeroed in on what Hinton described as the central issue during the Cultural Revolution, and through the recent leadership shake-ups that have occurred in China. He described what he called the “two line” struggle that is behind every dispute and confrontation in China. On the one hand are the advocates both among the people and withih the Communist Party of the philosophy and policies that will eventually lead to the reestablishment of capitalism in China, as the Chinese contend has occurred in the Soviet Union. On the other hand are those forces behind policies that will keep China on the road to socialism. To illustrate this, Hinton ' spoke in detail on the struggle in the. agricultural schools he inspected, an area in which, as a graduate of Cornell Agricultural School, he is Change in U.S. view of China a tribute to Mao by Rob Cohen Campus Editor theory? Conflicts often subtle In China, this continual “two line” struggle is the nickname for the struggle between classes that very evidently did not end with the revolution. When it gets down to the nitty-gritty, of course, the issues are not so clear cut. In socialist China it is not easy to take openly capitalist positions, thereby making most conflicts quite subtle. In part because of this, these conflicts are often depicted disputes as mere between individuals vying for power. And it is true that individuals are put into and out of power but the basis for this strife can be more logically seen as the struggle between the majority of peasants and against workers the burgeoning careerist and bureaucratic class, who have the former landlords and capitalists as their allies. Though their numbers far, are far fewer, their organizational ability, and the positions of. influence that they hold give them disproportionate — knowledgeable. „ First, who will lead the schools? Workers and peasants, or intellectuals and bureaucrats, specially trained for this career? The former leads to a socialist college working for the interests of working and peasant people; the latter leads to a bureaucratic school, run in the interests of a careerist elite, the iiew7 ruling power. Hinton stressed that this is the situation in every aspect of class. will these agricultural colleges be located, and therefore indirectly, who will . In (hey best serve? the countryside, allowing easy access to the reality of the land and the peasants? Or in the city, isolated and distant from the subject matter, and from those who should be taught, the peasants? Second, .

Sixth, will this education be equally available to the working and peasant-wffSpring, who have not been so well prepared as the offspring of former rich peasants, landlords captialists? and Basically, will education be available to all in fact as well as in technique — News commentary It is truly remarkable how American leaders and commentators on the international scene, who just ten years ago viewed Chairman Mao Tse Tung as a monstrous Communist tyrant, are now lauding him in an endless stream of superlatives, as one of the few giants of the twentieth century. Abhorrence, it seems, has given way to adulation. What, one may ask, ' has on this sudden brought exoneration of the deceased revolutionary or, if you may, “Chinese patriarch”? The obvious answer is of course the watershed Sino-American rapproachment, which ironically enough was that most engineered by intractable of purveyor anti-Communist hysteria, Richard Milhous Nixon. The above probably gives too much credit to the diplomatic skill of our much maligned former President, for it was Mao who was the ultimate mastermind of this dramatic diplomatic coup. Once internal stability was restored after the great upheavals of the Cultural Revolution, China decided to emerge from the darkness and once again join the international community. Ever wary of Soviet belligerency, a perspicacious, pragmatic Mao realized that he needed a friendly United States to counterbalance Soviet designs. The preconditions for a thaw, as Henry Kissinger might say, “were at hand.” paying positions in agri-business. where — Wn relations between the two powers: Taiwan. This promise has yet to be fulfilled. In any qise, with this act, twenty-five years of mutual antipahty were eased. The fear and loathing which redounded from United States support of Chiang-Kai Shiek’s Nationalist faction during the Chinese .Civil War were forgotten following a bitter Korea conflict in (1951—53). This situation of course, nearly reached the boiling when a cantankerous point Douglas MacArthur advocated the nuclear liberation of a “lost China” while nearing the banks of the Yalu River which divides North Korea and China. Phenomenal changes Only in the last five years have we fully comprehended the phenomenal changes Mao has wrought in- China. A destitute, the famine-ridden country — of helpless pawn parasitic has been imperialists transformed into a viable world which power, even more importantly is capable of feeding itself. The Chinese have emerged with a renewed and a prideful identity, with a strong sense of autarchial independence often bordering on xenophobia. In short, Mao has restored China to its rightful place in the world. But why was the United Stated totally incapable of seeing Mao and the People’s Republic in this light, twenty or even thirty years ago? Was it just acute myopia or was it a dogged refusal to face the truth? It was probably a two, combination of the complicated by China’s enigmatic nature which had all along prevented us from seeing what was really going on in this monolithic nation. Third, where will the graduates of these colleges go? Back to the community from which they develop came, to further production there, or will they go on to management positions in the agricultural enterprises, as they do here in the United States, where farm communities are abandoned by the knowledgeable youth who have left for high life in China cultural, medical and industrial. He declared, however, that this great conflict began and continues in the schools of China because within the educational system lies China’s future: her children. Hinton ended his lecture to take questions, and there was great applause in which he took part. Just after, he explained that in China the tradition is to applaud the entire affair, and thus the speaker claps as well. He said that at another university the student newspaper, misunderstanding, declared: Hinton applauds himself.

Short run . I loiter i’ luliior \vriimg in ivsponsvfb scheduling concerning ;im Mr. David Ruhin s with problems management courses. Mr. Rubin is correct in slating that students in the School of Management are faced with scheduling difficulties. There simply is no doubt that .students in management arc unable to take courses whenever or w herever they wish, nor do they have unlimited selection of instructors. Since this is as meaningless as staling I lull mosl of us experience constrained choice.among alternatives in our work lives. I would like to provide some background on Ibis problem. The School's .scheduling of courses is complicated by: (i) unusually high student demand l l)76-76 enrollments generated a 2/.1 student faculty ratio; (ii) in order to meet student needs, management majors are allowed to begin their programs in September. January or June, thereby necessitating the ottering of basic courses in more than one semester SOM normally oflers\l 10-1 20 sections per semester: (iii) in response to student career needs we have a large number of graduate and undergraduate concentrations and options, each involving specific course'seqwences; (iv) accreditation standards have forced a reduction in class size, which we hope and believe is reflected in the quality of educational experiences given no increases in instructional resources, this would normally result in a reduced number of elective courses; (v) a shortage of faculty lines given student demand for courses; (vi) a reduction in our staff advisory personnel due to budget reductions; (vii) a university that allocates new budgeting process faculty positions so late in the recruiting year that to fill an posted outside the student affairs office (rm. 151 Crosby) as soon as they, are received by undergraduate or graduate advisors; (ii) almost all required courses are offered both in fall and spring semesters ' no student will be unable to graduate due to sections being "closed out;” (iii) with considerable reluctance, we have severely curtailed enrollments by non-majors in any management course, and have reduced the number of majors accepted for entrance into our program by approximately 20% (non-accepted students with 01* V of 2.4 to 2.7 no doubt feel this is an unreasonable tradeoff); (iv) with the /extensive cooperation of faculty members, we have force registered any major with a compelling need for a particular section of a course (i.e., excluding as justification /preferences for particular instructors, particular times due to employment desires, specific sections in order to create “free” or “easy” days, etc.): (v) the support staff in our student affairs office has been revised in order to provide more effective guidance on scheduling problems; and (vi) restricted faculty latitude in rescheduling in order to create “better schedules.” In essence, what we have attempted to do is maximize the number of section different educational alternatives for all students number of different courses) while minimizing the inconveniences generated by a reduced number of duplicate sections (i.e., multiple sections of the same course offered at different times or by different instructors). I realise that nothing said up to this point will completely relieve feelings of anger, disappointment and frustration experienced by students affected by schedule changes. Unfortunately, the School does not have the luxury of implementing what students open, position often means hiring faculty with other view as the ideal solution to these problems (i.e., the than anticipated areas of expertise and contrary to addition of sufficient staff to offer all the sections not 'completely justified by student demand). Instead, in the short ■economic theory, faculty are (viii) substituteable or interchangeable; a scheduling run, in order to maximize flexibility for most process that requires assignment of faculty (who we students some individuals will continue to be may never be authorized"!o hire) to courses at least affected by schedule changes.

This is a new paperback edition of one of Mr. Leiber's most popular works. A 1965 Hugo Award winning novel. That says about all that is'necessary. But, since fendom represents a minority of the population, I must, explain: The Wanderer is the story of what happens to forty-four men, eleven women, two aliens (one male, one female), one green-eyed green Persian cat, and one black-and-gbld German Shepherd dog when another Earth-sized planet, the wanderer, appears in the Earth-Moon system. If this story could be properly translated in(to a screenplay, it would be the ultimate disaster movie; the Wanderer's gravity and magnetic fields wreak havoc all over the world. Tides reach more than five hundred feet, earthquakes cause great tsunamis even larger than the tides, and, all the while, people watch the Wanderer as its rotation brings its different surface patterns into sight: Tyrannosaurus Rex, Wolf Jaws, a mandala, a Maltese cross, the yin-yang, a "D/ nestled, like a trademark, in a "C", a Needle's Eye, and, what observers call a Moon Eater. Throughout the book the two leading protagonists, Margo and Paul, often make references to familiar works of science fiction, and their popular creators. Margo defends her decision to bring her cat. Miaow, to the observatory, for instance, by reminding Paul that his own "god" Heinlein (Robert A.), extolled cats as second-class citizens, equal to aborigines and fellhin. More, the battle between the Wanderer and the Stranger sounds very much like, as the audience remarks, a fight scene clipped from an E.E. "Doc" Smith novel. It is exhilerating to see science fiction fen in a novel, instead of the boring mundane types we usually see trying to cope with a science fiction plot. Thank you very much, Mr Leiber! —Linda Ruth Pfonner Linda Ruth Pfonner is a U.B. undergraduate and a member of the Science Fiction Club. "Fen", she explains, is science fiction argot for "fans", the singular of which originated sometime in the forties as "faan." Very often such terms are invented for the sake of compression or convenience (ie.,"Streck" for "Star Trek"), but "fen" and "Fendom" ,she says, are, merely for exotic effect. & dePahna's craftsmanship shows through'Obsession' by Bill Maraschiello present all the same. Arts Editor Michael Courtland (Cliff Robertson) is gripped by an Obsession with a young Italian girl who uncannily resembles his late wife, killed in a kidnap attempt. Director Brian dePalma has an obsession of his own: Alfred Hitchcock, whose unmistakeable style dePalma has so meticulously copied that it all but obliterates any traces of his own directorial identity. DePalma's first films were- all comedies: Greetings and Hi, Mom!, two scattershot pastiches loosely linked to the Vietnam war protests, and Get To Know Your Rabbit, wherein an executive forsakes the rat race for the life of a tap-dancing magician. The premise of the latter, in its almost pathological craziness, indicates the kind of purely insane glory that often surfaced in these early works, despite their lack of coherence and control; then again, who'd be foolish enough to expect coherent madness? What carries the film above all, though, is the contributions of photographer Vilmos Szigmond, composer Bernard Herrmann (the aforementioned Cliff Robertson's albums), Hitchcock and Szimond's camera captures the performance. sensuous feel of Florentine architecture and statuary and New Orleans mansions with a rich, lush eye. Herrmann, of course, is a proven master (besides his work with Hitchcock, he scored Citizen Kane): his score is so powerful, in fact, that it overshadows the film itself at times when the onscreen action grows limp.

Yet, for all its energy and gaiety, there is sadness in the ephemerality of the beauty this play has presented. And this sadness is here crystallized in Puck's suggestion that the whole istory of the night we have just witnessed was nothing more than a passing dream: that the play was not only about a magical but transitory experience, but was one Royal audience Robin Phillips's production of this play at the Stratford (Ontario) Shakespeare Festival captures the play's melancholy wistfulness without sacrificing any of its comic energy. It gives particular urgency to the play's beauty and its sadness by means of a brilliant metadramatic conception: the actress (Jessica Tandy) who plays both Hippolyta and Titania, metamorphoses as well into the figure of Elizabeth I herself, and the entire play is presented as an entertainment offered to her.

As a matter of fact, the evidence indicates that Elizabeth the first probably did see performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream in 1595, written, it seems, for private performance at the wedding of the Earl of Southampton's mother.

And as he walks final slowly off, the metomorphosis of the evening comes onstage: a washerwoman, who had earlier been Titania's First Fairy. She "scrubs" the final spotlight off the stage as the houselights come up, and she continues to sweep the now bare platform as the audience flies out. What Phillips has realized and dramatized so powerfully is that the magic and beauty of this play or, in fact, of any theatrical cannot be pinned experience down to the objects which were their source. The play is beautiful precisely because it is ephemeral. Shakespeare knew this and had Puck suggest that what we have witnessed is the same as a passing dream. Robin Phillips simply carries'it farther. Step by step, he strips the magic from the objects in which it has inhered.

But, whereas Mangione soars from mellow lows to incredible highs with different beats, Neiwood maintains the middle with consistent, quick rhythms. Dave Samuals, the vibraphone player, starts off a set with a pleasant solo, leading up to Neiwopd’s entrance on clarinet, accurately timed and executed. Well versed on many instruments, Gerry begins with an interesting variation on the beat, showing once again the influence of his time spent with C.M. And he certainly isn't want for talent with his new band. All members work well together, producing extremely unified music. Even the pieces played from sheet music seem to lack little in the way of spontaneity. These selections include original works by Samuals, also "Timeless" and "Ralph's Piano Waltz" by John Abercrombie. Adopting a flute, Neiwood lets go with a free from composition, allowing each member to expand the musical territory to vast extents. During this interlude Jeff Berlin, a fine bass player recently added to the group, comes up with a chord/plucked solo which illustrates his technical artistry all of which-leads us back to the original melody line, to the end. A little bebop now, a tune by Jack Byard from the falls, entitles "Ah, Sweet Mystery of Bird." The rubber feet supporting the vibes must -have been tapping with everyone else's. After the last selection, some self-centered members of the audience resorted to boos to persuade Niewood to do an encore. It can only be hoped that, as their criteria for musical value changes, they will find more appropriate methods of coercion. Regardless, the band obliged with a song by Rick Laird, taken from their new album. The tune, "Soft Focus", must remain vivid in the mind of a fuzzed audience, potentially a catalyst for the album's sales. That it reflects Mangione's style-is an indicator of the influence and understanding of both musician's expertise. And that was it.

Although members, I have it from reliable sources that American Flyer includes veterans from Pure Prarie League and Blood, Sweat, and Tears, and Poco's talented Rusty Young guests on the same album. This all makes very little difference, because it has little effect on what is in the grooves. Buckacre is a guitar band, and seems to be ashamed of it. "Red Wine" is the only song which attempts to assault the listener, and the effect is analogous to getting whipped with a wet noolde. There ale no extremes on the album, good or bad.

In fact, if one took out the vocals and added more orchestration, a few cuts would be prime material for WBNY ('"All music. All the time".). The key word is mellow. Where is the hook? If your clock-radio tried to wake you up with this album, you would miss all your morning classes. The title cut is respectfully true to its name and the picture on the jacket; serene. The band may be hustling for some emotion, even some picture on tears, on this cut, but don'tfeel bad if you can't oblige. The "Morning Copies" looks more like a sunset, and the entire album seems to say "Goodnight". A welcome change between Buckacre and American Flyer is the addition of a keyboard player. At first the album shows promise of getting out of the rut that Buckacre fell into; producing a mixture of country, folk, and rock and not knowing which to rely on. But in establishing a more concrete style or musical theme. Flyer lands on easily be someone else's territory; a majority of the cuts could mistaken for Ronstadt material. Exceptions are few, but are nice vocals surprises. "Lady Blue Eyes" attracts attention with its distant guitar. the also "M" replaces rhythm and the Fender Rhodes which to listening are not realize you you makes breaks the monotony, "Heart Like a Wheel" or "Prisoner in Disguise". Side Two offers a quartet of numbers that produce the sensation of having heard it all before. One of these songs is at best terribly out of place in this collection. "Queen of All My Days" has the Jamaican beat of "Mamaloi" from "Toulouse Street" or Dylan's "Mozambique". I dislike the song altogether, but it is especially uncomfortable in this already-confused melting pot of folk-rock-country-western. "Call Me, Tell Me", which is almost as heavily-orchestrated as "M", breaks out of seemingly the syndrome somewhat. It is a sweet, fairly happy song, stolen from a soundtrack as the cowboy gallops off (on his horse) to find his woman, smiling and thinking of getting laid. <‘End of a Live Song" is the end of the album, a 52-second pseudo-classical instrumental which is as much out of place in this collection as Jimmy Page playing for Olivia Newton John. There must be a purpose for this short piece, but I'm not losing sleep over it. The lyrics on both albums are as mediocre as the music. There are no significant social comments or profound love songs, but the words lyrics are not do fit well into the feeling and style of the songs. The really designed to be listened to; these are good albums to do calculus homework by, providing background music as opposed to background noise.

Friday, 17 September'1976 INCORPORATED 65535 digal Sun ��RECORDS Jon Anderson, Olias of Sunhillow (Atlantic) The release of Jon Anderson's Olias of Sunhillow last July closed a door on a minor era in Yes history. All Yessoids could breathe a sigh of relief: the band had no intention of breaking up, nor did any member plan a solo career; in fact, they now .felt (and feel) closer 1 Ss a group than they had for the last two years. While Yes as a total band is far greater than the sum of. their individual projects, they are still, important for two reasons: showing both the musical influences of the members as well as their respective roles in the group. , Jon Anderson, for example, is obviously the band's leader "mentor" may be more accurate. Olias of Sunhillow sounds more like a Yes album than any of its solo predecessors; it even sounds more like a Yes album than Relayer. This would be fine if it were reminiscent of something like Close to the Edge thus giving talent-starved Yes fans a recording worth waiting for. Unfortunately, Olias sounds more like Tales from Topographic Oceans with far eastern overtones/ capturing most of its aimlessness and pomposity, although (thankfully) little of its lethargy. Olias is, quite predictably, a concept album, but one more lucid than anything Anderson Has written before. The plot is simple; the planet Sunhillow is dying, and it is up to the wizard Olias to build a ship (another to transport its peoples to earth. wizard) guides^them to the ship, and Rahyart pilots the ship to its destination. On the way to earth, discord develops among the peoples, and is calmed by Olias (with music, of course). After the — ... completion of the journey, the three wizards "again become one with the universe and drift away towards the sun." The music is Correspondingly less complex, considering what a member of Yes could have done. Anderson said that Olias is truly-, a solo recording, because he wrote the whole thing, produced it and played most of the instruments as well. This last feat is particularly notable, especially to those (like myself) who thought his abilities were limited to singing and occasionally beating a tambourine. Admittedly, the instrumeatal array is not extremely varied, but his talent on the synthesizer, acoustic guitar, sitar and several percussives is still mildly surprising. For an album by someone noted for lyrical skill, Olias of Sunhillow contains a considerable number of instrumental passages, which are the main cause of its downfall. Jon Anderson is not a very adept songwriter, his compositions tending to be rather unidimensional and repetitive without the lyrics, (have you ever tried to imagine "Your Move" without words?) The instrumentals, such as "Ocean Song'' and "Qoquaq En Transic", constitute so much filler, making it difficult to concentrate on the near gems ("Naon", "To the Runner") embedded within. But listening to Olias of Sunhillow is nonetheless a pleasant pasttime, and it shows Anderson as more than just a pretty voice. It also proves that, contrary to popular expectation, he would have little future, as a solo artist. —Eugene Zielinski Linda Ronstadt, Hasten Down the Wind (Asylum Records) I've believed that Linda Ronstadt had artistically peaked with the album Heart Like A Wheel for some time now. No album since then, including the latest release. Hasten Down the Wind, comes close to dealing with Linda's powerful, but sensitive, sensuality. Incongruous with this real sensuality, Linda, along with various singers, never escapes the cradling, coddling, sexist promotion through which Madison Avenue chokes her. Whereas Emmylou Harris shoots coke to portray her svelte femininity and Tanya Tucker squeezes her "voluptuous" body with skin-tight, bragging garb, the Ronstadt sexual image is as soft and sweet as it is lucid. This is fiction, and the image derives from her 'sensuality', which is true. Nowhere is this present to a greater extent than on "Hasten Down The Wind. The myth of the ballad that envisions lovesick blues and grail-like searches for logic to the i(logic of love philosophy yields empathic consequence. It's more surreal than the typical country, "Muh dog dahd last night, and muh CB radio has been repossessed;You left me in debt and ah got those credit card blues again./Lord you're a mother trucker and every Smokey the Bear has been 10-4d by you, you porcupine sucker." Y'all know wut ah mean? Linda's tfocal clarity is somewhat smothered of Peter Asher's production throughout the new LP. "Asher vnploys orchestras, conductors, choirs and too many obscure and needless instruments of percussion which he himself 'plays’ to showcase his musical talent on , . record. Clarity is something of purity which is correlative to prudential wariness of what is to be given to the listener. The gift on this album is displays the love ballad. For example, James Tyalor's "Fire and Rain" The less love with crispness and lucidity, without over-instrumentation. becomes. it instrumentation within a ballad, the more personal There are only two songs on Hasten Sown The Wind that meet this singing theoretical criterion. Willie Nelson’s Crazy sees Linda pleasantly with idyllic simplicity, unencumbered by violins or cellos. "Lo Siento Mi Vida" flows with the smooth, pronounced Spanish romance that is familiarly foreign. (Remove the old high school 'Spanish-English' dictionary with those swear words you had once curiously underscored from the closet for this one, folks. You II want to know what Linda's singing about on this, the first song she s written in quite a while.) Despite the fact Hasten Down The Wind is a very good recording. are that Linda's ballads are bogged down with instrumentation, they with the still pleasing to the ear. As I have said, the only problem ballads is reliability to the audience; each listener cannot be deemed an individual since the focus is on the masses. As John McGahn of Q-FM 97 once mused, 'The Masses are asses." And one's intelligence becomes insulted. discover In recordings like this one, it is inevitable that one should dreamy the philosophy of combines a favorite cut. Where the ballad the listener reality, of stark thought with artifice of imagination becomes entranced. Such is the song by Jackson Brown protege, lyrics: Warren Zevon, entitled "Hasten Down The Wind" Here are some / She tells him she thinks she wants to be free He tells her he doesn't understand She takes his hand. And tells him nothing's working out the way she planned She's so many women He can't find the one that was his friend He's hanging on to half her heartBut he can't have the restless part So he tells her to hasten down the wind. Instrumentation or no, no one interprets a ballad with as much —Harold Goldberg feeling as does Linda Ronstadt.

One problem the team faces is that it does not have a full-size field to practice on, but coach Julie Herman expects the team to do much better than their 3-5 record of last year because of the large number of returning players. Last year’s team consisted of many women who were either inexperienced or did not play well, but with experienced players such as Beth Liebeskind and Pam Tellock, the coach expects the team to score a lot more goals and win a lot more games. There is also more experience on the defensive line with Lynne Azzaro and Brenda Judkiewicz returning. Herman also adds her ! expertise, having just completed four years of playing field hockey at Cortland. Come and see These positive factors led Herman to confidently say, “We are looking forward to making Buffalo a name in field hockey circles.” The coach also hopes that more students come to watch the games, even though the women will not play their first home game until October 8. Don’t be deluded into thinking field hockey is a watered down version of ice hockey because you couldn’t be more wrong. The field hockey team plays its games no matter what the weater and during the thirty-five minute halves, no time outs or substitions are allowed.

But of course this assumption was a fallacy. China was not Soviet dominated, as subsequent events (mainly the Sino-Soviet rift which was making itself apparent in the late 1950s) were to testify. At the 1954 Geneva Conference on then-Foreign China’s Korea, and chief representative, Minister the late Chou En Lai, extended the to overtures friendly representative, American Secretary Of State John Foster Dulles. Dulles declined to even shake the urbane-Chou's hand. Even to this day that snub has not been forgotten. Fifteen more years were to pass before U.S.-Chinese relations were to be somewhat normalized. Will friendly relations be pursued now that the old guard (Chou and Mao) has passed or will it be discarded as a rash policy conceived by an ailing leader? It all hangs on the outcome of the anticipated power struggle pitting radicals against moderates. After the soccer Bulls had opened their season with a relatively easy 5-0 win over Buffalo State on Wednesday, soccer coach Sal Esposito was a bit surprised. “1 really didn’t expect to beat them 5-0, he said. “I was hoping for about 3-1 “The key to the game was hustle,” Esposito continued, “and at Bengals first our guys weren’t hustling.” For a while at least, the the controlled the action but couldn’t score.

Frieday said determining the schedules each year was an “educated guess,” based on what times more students took more courses, and at what times these courses started. Estimated annual cost of the service for all campuses is in excess of $400,000, about $60 per hour per bus. Estimated costs of calling in more buses when an overload occurs is approximately $45.20 per bus, since the University must pay for at least four hours worth of service, even if the bus is used for less time.

Those who have, already submitted applications include Steve Blumberg, acting treasurer, Abdul Wahab, former chairman of the Black Student union and Sub Board Delegate, Tyrone Wilson, SA minorities affairs coordinator for SA and Neil, Seiden, Student Association of the State Universities (SASU) delegate. In addition to the SA treasurer election, there will b,e balloting for six “at large” members of the SA Senate, an SASU delegate and an election for a student representative in the College Council. An important referendum will be held focusing on several important campus issues. One of the referendum articles will focus on procedural changes in the plus/minus grading system. At this University, plus/minus grades are not recorded on students’ transcripts. Whether the present three contact hour/four credit system should be retained or changed to a commensurate setup of four credits per four hours is another question appearing on the referendum. Buffalo’s rusty gridiron At the present time faculty can opt for exclusion from the Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) survey. The outcome of a referendum article dealing with SCATE will determine if this policy is to be. continued or changed to a mandatory evaluation where ' instructors have no input. The time and honored tradition of an annual football referendum will not be violated this year. If a sizable number of students advocate the reactivation of Buffalo’s rusty gridiron the possibility exists, though quite remote, that a dozen minus one burly bruisers will be seen scrimmaging on a now neglected Rotary Field. Students are strongly urged to vote. Voting booths can be found at the following locations: on the Main Street Campus at Norton and Goodyear and on the Amherst Campus at Richmond Porter Clinton and Roosevelt. Another voting booth will be manned at the Ridge Lea 11;00 respectively.

He said there is a new plan to avoid another large deficit and to help offset the pharmacy’s summer losses. A professional fee of $2.25 will be charged for compound prescriptions, which take a significant amount of time to prepare. There will be a professional fee of $1.75 on all other prescriptions. The professional fees help to cover the cost of the pharmacist’s salary. A three percent markup is charged on over-the-counter items to cover the pharmacy’s overhead. The remainder of the pharmacy’s expenses are absorbed by student activity fees. Sub Board is a student corporation, made up of officers of the six student governments, which distributes over $350,000 in student activity fees. Its divisions include publications, UUAB, Health Care approximately and others. The pharmacy opened in November 1975, after Board approved the School of Pharmacy’s proposal for the student pharmacy in the fall of Sub 1973., $56,000 was allocated for equipment, drugs, salaries and other expenses. In January 1976, President Robert Ketter announced, cutting off the'pharmacy’s funds .until the license was transferred from Sub Board to the University. Ketter said that he could easily justify the pharmacy’s educational function if the license was transferred to the University. There was a need to justify the educational purpose of the pharmacy because of complaints from local pharmacists of unfair competition, and to ensure it complied with student activity fee law. The educational function of the pharmacy is served through clerkships, a requirement for pharmacy majors. By last March, the pharmacy was thousands of dollars in debt. It was then that Sub Board transferred the license to the University. However, Sub Board, in an agreement with the administration, still administrates the pharmacy’s operations. The pharmacy will remain open all year, offering low costs to students on prescriptions.. It is hoped that stiidehts will take advantage. The new hours are 9-12 ndori and 1-5 p.m., Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday; Wednesday 9-12 noon and 1-6:15 p.m. The evening hours are directed at Millard Fillmore students. - Executive Vice President Albert Somit has been named Acting President of the University while Robert Ketter is away on a six month sabbatical.

A survey of 60 non-Communist nations suggests that the United States professes a greater level of religious commitment than any other major industrialized nation and ranks only behind India among all countries studied. Compared to Europe, the gap is particularly striking.

It was shut down amidst much controversy by (he Ketter Administration last semester after Carl Cavage, owner of a chain of record stores in Buffalo, complained that the Coop was competing unfairly with the Cavages store on Main Street. Cavage contended that the Coop could charge lower prices because it was not subject to rent and taxes and thus was illegitimately drawing business away from his store. Cavage complained that since the Coop was located on state property, and thereby aided by state taxes, he was, in effect, funding his competition. As a result of the Cavages complaint, Edward Doty, vice president for Finance and a Management, issued memorandum to then SA President Michele Smith which ordered that the Coop must close its doors, and shut down all operations within two weeks. In the memo, he asserted that the Coop was an illegal commercial enterprise under its present condition. APHOS (Association of Professional Health Oriented Students) ■ Thurs.

I also protest The Spectrum’s editorial endorsement for the Communist party which appeared in the edition of 30 July, 1976. I would like to read about other alternative candidates besides the Democrats and Republicans but think it is wrong for the newspaper, being run on student fees, to endorse any particular party and therefore allotting more publicity, to it. 1 think it is right for our school newspaper to feature stories on any other alternative party, such as the Libertarian party, to keep the University community informed but not to endorse it as Mr. Barzel A headline in your Monday issue may undergraduates.

It bases its political position on Terri Cap one simple premise: that each individual has the Republicans - - By classifying Judaic Studies as a program which [and] treats “ethnic, religious, philosophical interests,” the Committee is stating a gross inaccuracy the purpose of which is obviously the eventual demise of the Judaic Studies program. Judaic Studies is far from being an ethnic eccentricity. Rather, it represents an important current in Western Civilization in its origins, history, and modern culture. To say that it serves the “interests” of a specific group only, merely points up the ignorance concerning the importance of this area of study. In the light of the demonstrated ignorance, the suggestion that Judaic Studies not be a “separate” program is absurd. It is only by having scholars adequately trained in various fields of Judaica that the University can enable students to fully comprehend the importance of the Jewish heritage within general culture. By giving Jewish Studies a peripheral place within the University structure, (i.e. leaving it as a few courses within English, History, Classics, and Religious Studies) the Committee is continuing a distorted view which hurts the student and the University as a whole.

The remainder will share prizes of $5,000 each, The old lottery, which was begun in 1968, was suspended by Carey last Governor Hugh October when it was revealed that tickets had been duplicate printed. Sherry Harrington, a public relations representative for the lottery commission, said that they “don’t really want to be identified with the old lottery.’’ Harrington is certain the problems which developed with the old system would not crop up again. 4 ’ | - I a9 ara Falls Blwd. an C* | Bagels,! \ in Buffalo! | ■ FOK PRICE OF IJHSAGELb (with this adj DOZEN VARIETIES: plain, onion, poppy, sesame, salt, garlic ALSO: IM.Y. rye bread, bialys & - ' J KXPIKKS >>/,IO/7(i | Packard available at LACO BOOKSTORES 3610 Main Street - across from campus - 883-7)31 Wednesday, 15 September 1976 The Spectrum Page nine . . �' * 1 ,» . 1 ,*Kg»j . ■ Community Action Corps j We get by with a little helo from our friends.

Financial crisis Teacher Marion Porter said that last year alone she had to spend $600 of her own money to equip her class. Porter felt that the root of the problem was in the New York City financial crisis, which she theorizes has spread across the state even to Buffalo. Teacher Norman Rothdenberg feels that all these cutbacks will inevitably have an adverse effect on the quality of education available in the Buffalo Public Schools, although he pointed out that if a pupil is motivated enough, there will still be much he can learn. “We need more teachers,” he said. “We have tough kids to teach and we need all the help we can Call 8348814 or 8364738 for more information WELCOME BACK — get.” ' . . Principal Ronald Neer felt that the cutbacks were a loss to everyone. “For the school system to be a good one, the programs would have to be reinstated,” he said, hesitating to give detailed analysis until the school begins operating again. Presently negotiations to end the strike are still in a state of limbo. According to Meer and Porter the rumor mills are busy, so the only news they accept is what they read in the newspapers. The common hope is that the teachers will soon be able to trade in their picket signs for chalk, and return to the classrooms. ; personal pleasures. “We officially sign in and ten minutes later unofficially sign out,” student one told The Spectrum. The teachers usually continue their marching until about 3 p.m. in the afternoon and then head home. Sometimes they take a break, relaxing on the shaded stone wall and drinking Shasta orange soda.

After capturing last year’s Big Four title with a 9-3 season, this could be the year that will catapult the University of Buffalo soccer team into prominence. In just four short years, Buffalo's soccer team has begun to establish itself as a potential powerhouse in the state of New York. Since the soccer program began here in ’72, the Bulls have had several winning seasons, culminating with last years 9-3, when Buffalo was ranked in the state’s top 10. But to all the followers of Buffalo soccer who anticipated an outstanding year, due primarily to the return ol an Without doubt, this year’s big question mark is at goalie. Last year’s goalie, MVP Brian Smaszcz, had to leave because of personal reasons and his replacement, Mike Harbin, likewise will not be returning. That leaves the goaltending duties to freshman Bill Gleason. He is an excellent athlete, but will depend heavily on support from the rest of the team. In addition, Emmanuel Kulu, an All-America selection for the past two years, has decided to turn professional and is currently playing for the Buffalo Blazers. For unknown reasons, many other players have not yet returned, but this does not mean that the Bulls will be taking their lumps in ’76. Quite the contrary, this year’s team could very well be an even better and stronger one then last year’s with many others returning. With the v Bulls facing Buffalo State today. Coach Sal Esposito thinks his squad is ready to play. Last week iii a scrimmage against Erie Community College, Esposito he was.t - “encouraged by the said replacements he put in.” “With our key people out at certain times, our replacements picked up the slack, and there were no big gaps in the team,” he remarked. Esposito is looking forward to a good season. He predicted that “we have the best chance to win the Big Four Conference.” In fact, he believes that the final standings will be a close repeat of last year’s: Buffalo on top, followed by Niagara, Buffalo State and Canisius. In quest of the title “major contender,” Esposito has upgraded the soccer schedule for ’76. The Bulls will be facing more Division 1 schools this year, including McMaster University, Cleveland State, Fredonia State and Houghton. In addition to these new opponents', other outstanding rivals include Syracuse, Hartwick, Brockport and St. Bonayenture. The only problem with this year s schedule is the unfortunate breakup of the SUNY Center Championships. Because of financial problems, Stony Brook has been forced to disband its soccer team, but the Bulls will continue to face both Binghamton and Albany. The Bulls’ first game of the ’76 season is at Rotary Field against Buffalo State today at 4:00. “They’re a pretty tough team,” Esposito remarked, while sporting a faint smile, depicting the optimism he has for the upcoming season. This year, the bleachers adjacent to Bailey Avenue have been closed, so all spectators have been asked to use the stands nearer to the gym. This year, all students will be admitted free of charge with an ID card, while all others will have to pay a game charge.

The report, first released this summer and re-released this week, also recommended a study of the four-course load and allegations of grade inflation. The Committeeis interim report created a small uproar on campus when it was released last February. It was criticized mainly for calling for the phasing out of several departments and Colleges. The Committee’s final report, however, revised some of its recommendations for phasing out programs into recommended centralization of the programs it questioned. The Committee said there should ideally be a balance between the humanities and science in order to provide a broadly based curriculum. But the natural sciences have been slated for the bulk of attention. The report recommends that past achievements in the basic and applied natural sciences and the post-baccalaureate programs combine, consistent with societal demands, to define the basis for the future development of the University. This mission will be based on a university model derived from the The Committee recommended with “land-grant” continual concern for both public a shift in the balance between graduate fundamental undergraduate and service and scholarship. This contrasts with education to a 60:40 ratio. This other notions of universities, such will require a 5 percent increase in degrees as the Ivy League ideal of post-baccalaureate not awarded over present figures (with self-generated research accountable to external demands. a corresponding decrease in Undergraduate numbers).

The basic ideals to which it pays lip service are praiseworthy, but unfortunately this philosophy is not translated into actual recommendations. Issues which will have a profound impact upon students consolidation of departments and are evaluation of grading procedures language, and confusing muffled in vague while minor points are dramatized. What are the lofty goals to which the Commission subscribes? A comprehensive education is called for, balanced between science. “The the humanities and the sciences are without humanities without the the sciences incomplete; humanities are dangerous,” they assert. The University must also respect the needs and demands of society, they say, without — - falling prey to the dangers of “career education.” But once these ideals are stated, the Report recommends steps which 'ead in the reverse direction away from a liberal education, away from a concern with socially aware students, and toward a job-oriented education. Instead of a commitment to improve the areas promising insights mto social processes and cultural dynamics as its ideals would indicate, we see an emphasis on classical literature. If the Committee’s concern is to produce individuals with awareness of contemporary issues, the should be on anthropology, stress sociology, political science and history, areas in which they say student interest is waning. If a balanced education means equal parts of applied science and classics, then the Committee is missing the point. consistent, This attitude would be however, with recent administrative decisions such as the dismissal of the Social Sciences College. — After showing a keen awareness of all the pitfalls of educating students for specific occupations changes in the job market, difficulty in preparing for even entry level jobs, shortening of career ladders it concludes that “growth is limited by support and demand” and that society’s negative view of a liberal education must be taken into account. In other words, let’s do it anyway. This reduces the commodity of education to the let us principles of a market economy demands. supply what society — - - Should the demands of society dictate the direction of scholarly interests? Should intellectual growth be determined by today’s job market? One need only look around at the thousands of unemployed products of teachers in our society answer these to career speculation questions. undergraduate liberal arts program. It will admit an elite intellectual few who, in their first two years of education, have proven themselves fit for this rigorous training. Apparently gone is the ideal of a liberal arts education for all who desire it. The sensitivity of the Commission to internal political problems between the administration and faculty is one area which is deserving of praise. Hopefully the higher echelons of the administration will to heed their advice improve communications with the rest of the community and avoid university confrontations, such as was recently witnessed in the resignation of a large segment of the School of Pharmacy this summer. - — The Committee’s false concern with a liberal, well-balanced education is further revealed in its plans for an upper division The content of this important document, which deserves the attention ot every student concerned with the direction of education in this state, consists of ideals which somehow elude themselves when translated into a plan of action. �Policy Studies internships New appointment Acting dean has fresh ideas The scheduled closing of Social Sciences College on July 31 has made the Colleges a subject of controversy this summer. Kunz does not believe that the demise of the College will hinder the other Colleges. “Each College has to rise and fall on its own merits.” However, he does feel that the Colleges will be hurt by the budget cuts, although he claims that the cuts have probably leveled off. by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor This.

Family Planning Clinic picksmew supervisor After reviewing over 100 prospective candidates, the Family Planning Clinic has appointed a new supervisor. Linda Guhlow replaces Pat Criscione, who resigned her position last May. The School of Medicine this summer refused to continue paying the $8000 annual salary of the Clinic supervisor because it saw no additional educational benefits for their students and because of cutbacks in the school’s budget, according to Sub Board Health Care Division Director Bob Olds. After the Medical School cut off funding for the position, the Clinic staff appealed to Sub Board\to pay the salary for a full-time supervisor. Sub Board turned down the request because they did not have the necessary funds, according to Olds, but they did agree to furnish the funds for a part-time supervisor. When funding was supplied the criteria for the position was determined according to Olds. A graduate nursing student was preferred in the hope that the new supervisor would be removed from the student body, and be able to provide a bit of hospital floor experience. Olds said another consideration was limited amount of time to fill the position:the only instruction needed to assume supervisors’ duties would be in the administrative procedures involved. Responsibilites The responsibilities of the position include; miantaining'inventory supplies, insuring payment of doctors at the clinic, scheduling the volunteers and professipnals, selecting the educational materials for patients, and ensuring that the lab materials are quickly processed. Instead of last years’ $8000 salary, Guhlow will recieve only a $4100 stipend for a position that will demand between 30-36 hours per week. Guhlow is enrolled in a Masters degree programm at this University. She has experience as both a teacher and as a head floor nurse which Olds said will be invaluable in Coordinating the training of volunteers and supervision of the staff. The Family Planning Clinic will be open September 15, 21, 28, and 30. In October the clinic will be open after staff training and orientation.

For six years SSC offered courses in Marxist social and economic theory until its charter was revoked by President Robert Ketter July 30. In closing the College, Ketter upheld criticisms of the College voiced in the minority report of the Colleges Chartering Review Committee which recommended (CCRC) termination, and the majority which had advised report conditional retention, if the College successfully completed major revisions of its program and leadership. The CCRC conducted an evaluation of Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges in late spring, While the CCRC painted a favorable picture of Tolstoy College in recommending its continuance, the committee, in both its majority and minority reports, offered serious criticism of Social Sciences College academic quality. Students and faculty of the College bitterly complain that undemocratic methods were Ketter and the employed by CCRC in rescinding the College’s charter. A protest memo issued by SSC this month elucidates this charge in two basic contentions, “We maintain that our College was closed because of University opposition to our political beliefs. This is in violation of academic freedom, which Ketter and the State University claim to uphold, Further we charge the Ketter adminstratipn with undemocratic procedures recently most his arbitrary manifested in rejection of the Majority Report of the Charter Review Committee, which recommended conditional approval of our charter until January 1977.” Precarious state Both the and Majority of the CCRC Minority Reports the academic question qualifications of Social Sciences faculty and the adminstrative of its top competence Majority coordinators. The Report recommended a total revamping of SSC’s faculty and administrative structure as a precondition for the College’s continued survival past January 1977.

Pupils were supervised by about 500 regular teachers and subsitutes, some of whom have reportedly experienced difficulty passing striking teachers while crossing the picket lines. A spokesperson for the Buffalo Teacher’s Federation expressed guarded optimism that ’negociaters could reach an agreement before classes resumed today. Meanwhile, city attorneys sought a Federal Court restraining order against the strike. School Superintendent Eugene T.

Karras a cowboy? Plimpton spoke kindly of Alex Karras, the defensive lineman turned sports broadcaster. Karras is the funniest athlete he has ever known, he said, adding that Karras’ dream was to be a “different” sort of cowboy in a Western movie. Karras wanted to play the role of Ace Zablonski and carry a small Japanese parasol instead of wearing a hat. Plimpton also did time as a trapeze artist, something at which he failed miserably. He once tried to go to a local clinic to get a shot of pain killer for his hemhorraged shoulders, but the clinic turned him down, explaining that, “the human body is a cathedral, and yop have desecrated it.” The question most often asked of George Plimpton is, “What next?” The answer is manifold. Plimpton is scheduled to act as linesman for part of the closing rounds of the U.S. Open at Forest Hills. He is currently writing a book on boxing and Muhammed Ali. • that he has been approached by the Buffalo Sabres for a possible “career” but that nothing definite has been planned. Plimpton has some ideas about hockey, though. Firstly, he plans on playing goal, simply because he can’t skate.

It was shut down midst much controversy by , the Ketter idministration last semester after Carl avkge, owner of a . chain of record stores i Buffalo, complained that the Coop was ampeting unfairly with the Cavages stone n Main Street. Cavage contended that the Coop could large lower prices because it was not ibject to rent and taxes and thus was legitimately drawing business away from is store. Cavage complained that since the oop was located on state property, and icreby aided by state taxes, he was, jn feet, funding his competition. As a result of the Cavages complaint, dward Doty, Vice President for Finance id Management, issued a memorandum to ten (SA) President Michele Smith which dered that the Coop must close its doors id shut down all operations within two eeks. In the memo, he asserted that the oop was ?n illegal commercial enterprise nder its present conditiOnss. The p i would cause us to be more profit oriented and (would) make us increase our Prices.” However, about one month after the memorandum was issued, President Robert Ketter overruled Doty’s decision, allowing the Coop to reopen undgr new guidelines, which includedia sound financial bookkeeping system, a limit of $10,000 gross sale per month, an inventory of not At that time, the Administration suggested the Coop either move to another location off campus or resettle under the Student of the Faculty auspices Association (FSA). Members of the Coop were reluctant to follow the suggestion, claiming that it would be difficult, as well as expensive, to find an accessible place off campus. They also felt that moving off campus or joining FSA would “defeat the purpose” of the Coop, explained Leonard Rollins, Vice President of the Record Coop. “We’re aware of the profitmaking urges of the FSA, he said “referring to the organization Which runs Food Service and the University Bookstores. “Joining th.em than.' $20,000 at all times, and monthly income statements to Ketter and more James Gruber, Director of Norton Hall, involved in two law suits filed by Cavage. The first suit charges Ketfer with illegally reopening the Coop after limiting its sales to $10,000. The second suit claims the Coop constitutes unfair competition. The Coop, however, remains open under the guidance of SA while the legal problems are being resolved.(SA was named co-defendant in the lawsuit by Judge Gilbert King.) Meanwhile, the gripe students most often voice is that the Coop maintains irregular hoiks, remaining open only four days a week, .as opposed to. the normal five-day business week, according to Bruce Insana, Record Coop President. The Coop is only allowed to achieve $600 in gross sales per day, limiting the number of hours of business it can do. All items are marked up only three percent over cost as a matter of policy, Insana stressed. The three percent mark-up is to cover expenses, supplies, paper bags, and losses due to shoplifting. The Coop is located in the basement of Norton Hall, and opens every day at 12 noon. It is run by a staff of student volunteers. This week marks the beginning of an all-label sale. w?

Undaunted faith in the masses of people as the true heroes, the real makers of history, guided him as he led the Chinese people forward against the oppression of a feudal and colonial society and into the building of socialist New China. Chariman Mao’s faith in the people was not limited to the Chinese people alone. Over several decades, Chairman Mao maintained a deep sense of the role to be played , by American people in a changing world. Even when the U.S. government was providing Chiang Kai-Shek with millions of dollars of military aid to crush the Communists in 1946, Chairman Mao recognized the American people as an important force to bring about a peaceful resolution to the civil war. He said,“in the United States there are others (besides the imperialists) who are really strong the American people.” In 1949, Mao stated, “Certain ties do exist between the Chinese people and the American people. Through their joint efforts, these ties may develop in the future to the point of the ‘closest - friendship’.” ' We of the USCPFA are working to realize this developing But block to goal. major a is people-tO‘people friendship the continued recognition of and the military aid to Nationalist regime in Taiwan by th U.S. government.

Check it out for yourself! slightly longer To the Editor To the editor Charlie Goldberg c/k./ice To the editor tr Do you respond to the words “Oakstone Farm”? Possibly your initial reaction is positive, or possibly Negative. Or maybe you have never heard of the place. But I live there, and 1 want to give the University Community my view of what it’s like. It might be the only place in Buffalo where learning actually coincies with living. Oakstone is about 16 miles northeast of the South Campus, in Clarence Center. It has over 50 acres of farmland, but there is no farming. We have no pigs, no cows, no chickens or turkeys, not even a rooster to wake us up in the morning. Maybe you’re beginning to get the idea it’s not really a farm. Well, you’re right. There are two barns, but they contain a wood and auto shop, a music room with two pianos, a fully-equipped weight lifting room, a ping-pong table, and a studio. The rebuilt farmhouse has a library of over six thousand books, the best stereo system I’ve ever heard, and a kitchen with all the ingredients and spices needed for the most complicated receipe I’ll ever try. j 1 might be making the Farm out to be the last word in material luxury. Possibly it is, but 1 want to make an important point now,before you get the wrong idea: These materials are there to be used intelligently; and every time I use them that way, I gain some new knowledge and perspective on life. I find myself constantly using my imagination and straining my curiosity. Jonathan Ketchum owns and “runs” this huge, renovated farmhouse, and is the, cornerstone of Oakstone Farm. He has studied and taught, at Harvard, Stanford, and U.B. He started the project 18 years ago in Palo Alto, California, and in 1968 brought a new way of learning to Western New York-the integration of philosophy with daily life and general education. Don’t let the word “philosophy” scare you. It’s literal translation is “love of wisdom”. In my view, Jon is trying to achieve something very seldom attempted. He wants to help the residents to understand the possibilities for their lives, and to pick out the alternatives best suited to each one. Jon dones not pick out the way. He makes us question and decide what is best for ourselves.’ If you want to discover a different way of life, and feel that something important is missing from your formal studies'at the University, give the Farm a call(741-3110)and we will invite yor to a home-cooked supper. You can stay and talk with us after the meal, and you can explore the library. It may change your response to the words “Oakstone Farm,” and it might even change your life.

His delivery is poor; he mumbles; he swallows his yvords; it’s . hard to understand him sometimes on radio or TV. It's not a southern accent, it’s his articulation. The speech here was a good one the prepared text that is dealing with basic economic differences with the Ford Administration which are deep and vital. The election should turn on Ihern. The text was without eloquence, humor, or memorable phrases but there were sentences in it that we could imagine Franklin Roosevelt, with a lift of his chm and that tremendous way of his, belting right out of the ball park. Carter had an eager audience, it is hard to think of a more committed one, and George Meany, bald, elderly, in dark framed glasses, promised him the support of Labbr’s political adjunct, COPE, which he called “the best political machine in the country.” It was the moment for a stem winder of a speech but it didn’t come, particularly as the candidate didn’t follow text. He lapsed back into his pre-convention style of sequential generalities, delivered with love and compassion, and in a kind of falling cadence. The tough labor barons looked at each other inquiringly. The first debate comes September 23, dealing with domestic affairs. It would seem made to order for Jimmy Carter. By a coincidence it was just two years ago that the newly installed President, one of the most conservative in modern times, was making his choice of fighting inflation by cutting back the economy. Two years ago representatives of the poor, the aged, the handicapped, minority groups and consumers were holding a “pre-Summit” meeting, September 19-20 here with Administration leaders to discuss the worsening situation. Delegates charged that the new Administration planned to undertake fiscal restraint by making cutbacks in the Health, Education, Welfare Department’s social service programs. Why should the poor make the greatest sacrifices? They demanded. Mr. Ford’s chairman of the Council of Economic Advisers, Alan Greenspan, patiently explained, “Everybody is hurt by inflation. If you really want to examine percentage-wise who was hurt most in their income, it was Wall Street 'C'MON, LET'S ADD A LITTLE GREENERY FOR THE VOTERS' ' — % T from Washington I don’t think’ the public realizes yet what’s ahead of it in the Ford-Carter debates. The outrageously long 1976 campaign has dragged on for nine benumbing months, the nation to near-stupefaction. Neither candidate has turned on the voters despite all the efforts of the media. Estimates are that half the voters wouldn’t vote if the election came tomorrow. The Gallup poll says 52 percent would take a chance on Jimmy Carter, the Stranger, compared to 37 percent for President Ford plodding and likeable. That could change with a bang, however, after the first debate next week. That’s what happened in the Kennedy-Nixon show in 1960. The election 1 thought was decided in a 10-second interval in the first debate not when anybody was saying anything but when the camera turned on Richard Nixon and caught him listening to Kennedy, wetting his lips nervously, jowls sweating and apparently near collapse. It was a brutal exposure. It happened again in the fourth debate when one of the panel of reporters somehow raised the fact that Harry Truman had uttered the awful word “hell” right in public and Kennedy smilingly responded that he couldn’t control Truman’s language and that probably nobody else could except maybe Mrs. Truman. Nixon unwisely tried to strike a moral pose about bad language in politics and again the camera cut in to Kennedy. His calm, cool, Irish patrician face broke into a smile that conveyed relaxed derision and contempt;, In 10 seconds an audience of 75 million or so representing two-thirds of America’s adult population, learned a lot about your Mr. Kennedy’s identity, guessed at Nixon’s, and felt its emotions rise. Nixon led Kennedy on the Gallup poll before the debates, 50 percent to 44 percent, but the election result was a Nixon 49.5 percent to Kennedy 49.7 percent fantastically small popular margin of 120,000 out of nearly 69 million! The debates did it. The debates changed the character of the campaign 16 years ago and will do so again now. They are going to pump adrenalin into the battle. It seems to be taken for granted that Carter has the verbal advantage. I am not at all certain. Mr. Ford graduated from Yale Law School in the top third of his class, practiced debated 25 years in the House and was minority leader nine years. Last January I watched him put on a remarkable performance in the annual budget seminar for the press and TV in the big State Department auditorium. Cabinet members lined up beside him as his aides passed out pounds of documents, and staff members were ready to supply answers to reporters’ questions if he faltered.. But he didn’t. He knew his'stuff. Only q couple of times in the big extravaganza did he call on an assistant for statistics. Mr. Ford is a plodding speaker (with the single exception of that Acceptance Speech at Kansas City which he had practiced for days) but he holds his own m general debate. We have seen Jimmy Carter once of twice on panels in primary contests with other Bgtnocrats where he didn’t distinguish himself, and VPa heard him speak here the other dav before — - m 1/ — fM^awAvor Hrihlorh is on mention $45-00. rne du WXLUOSP uvs A 10/ hap mv OFFtce PAiurec? me COLOR OJAS om>5 I THe RMK)T fOReor FLMCep TO JtfV iioaxpemjce RASTER- brokers.” Catcalls drowned out his remarks. That was two years ago. Mr. Ford was a brand new president and can be excused in part for following poor advice. But he had picked, or continued, the advisers, whose conservative instincts re-enforced his own. Very soon he reversed his position (but retaining his advisers) and instead of asking for a 5 percent surtax and a slash of government expenditures (not military) he was demanding stimulative tax cuts which liberal academic, economists like Walter Heller. James Tobin, Otto Eckstein had urged from the start. “The hurry-up tax cut process in early 1975,” recalls Heller, “was the occasion for one of those exercises in political irony to which the U.S. system of divided powers lends itself.” In short a by-now-thproughly-alarmed president berated the legislature for not acting faster in reversing the course which he had just urged: “These charges were directed at a Democratic Congress that had been virtually hooted down for its timely efforts to mount a modest fiscal offensive against the gathering forces of recession in 1974.” Wonder if Jimmy Carter will recall this odd anniversary next week, as Mr. Ford arrives for the debate on domestic affairs with his 55 vetoes ip his pocket?

The terms of the contract between the Department of the Interior (DOI) and Alyeska (a consortium of eight oil companies) stipulate that all main line girth welds, joining eighty foot-long forty-eight inch diameter pipes, must be radiographed in order to guard against leaks in the pipeline. Responding to charges of weld radiograph falsifications made by a disgruntled employee of one of Alyseka’s subcontractors, the company began an internalaudit of all 1975 weld radiographs. This audit revealed 3,955 questionable welds, possibly either inadequately or falsely radiographed or of an unknown caliber. Nearly 1000 ot them are under twelve feet of permafrost or installed beneath rivers. The DOI hired the accounting firm of Arthur Andersen and Company to examine Alyseka’s internal audit of weld-x-rays. The firm’s report stated that the Alyseka x-rays and documents were in such disorder that it was impossible to determine whether or not every defective weld was accounted for in their audit. Consequently, there may have been more that 3955 questionable welds. Due to the findings of the Andersen report, the DOI ordered Alyseka to bring their records of the 1975 Welding Program into an auditable condition. From now on two x-rays will be taken of each weld, one of which will be sent ot the DOI. Costly Mistakes Alyseka recently released the news that they have already unearthed 2.6 miles of pipe in order to correct poor welding. Thus far the constructions mistakes have cost an estimated $55 million. The project is four weeks behind schedule; however, Alyseka officials maintain that the oil will flow on time. At this point Alyseka is testing an acoustical imaging device to increase its accuracy in determining the quality of welds. This audio mechanism uses sound to form visual images. The company hopes this method will prove to be as good as radiography in checking weld quality so that questionable welds bpried in permafrost or beneath one of which will be sent to the DOI. rivers will not have to be unearthed unless determined to be defective. The pipeline is supposed to start flowing at the rate of 600,00 barrels a day in July, 1977. At this point it is two-thirds complete. However, with valid x-rays of each weld, the Secretary of the Interior cann t give permission for the oil to flow. BACKPACKING - Interested in: CANOEING - ROCKCLIMBING?

Dept. 658G, 19310Prunetidge Avenue, Cupertino, CA 95014 �Sportspaige by Paige Miller Sports Editor There’s a new set of initials, RARI (sometimes shortened by the computer to RAI), running around campus, and for those of you who are interested in such curiosities they stand for the newly created Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related Instruction. Like all new things, it has its share of problems, not the least of which is its name. Sal Esposito, the department’s new chairman, felt the name “was not indicative of what we do here,” pointing to one of the major differences between RARI and the old Department of Health Education. The “Related Instruction” part of the title includes only the mandatory gym classes, and, not the undergraduate education majors physical program, which is now housed under the Department of Health Related Professions (HRP). The reasons for the split were never made clear to Esposito. “I only have my own theories as to why it was done,” he said. As for the advantages of the new set-up, Esposito said, “I don’t see any. I personally see [prefer a total physical education program.” Esposito was one of the new faculty members to teach in both the majors and non-majors programs last year Phone money The fact that RARI and HRP both occupy Clark Hall didn’t help matters, since they previously shared the same phone system. Now, they each had to be given their own separate phone budgets, although the total of the twp remains the same. In an example of classic bureaucratic the overall phone bungling, budget was split in half, even though RARI has 21 full-time faculty members, to HRP's 10. So Esposito reorganized the phone system in a way that amazed phone company experts, and achieved a donsiderable cost reduction. The result: “1 still don’t have enough money,” Esposito lamented. The new department probably can get along with a sub-par phone system, but the budget crunch struck harder in other areas. Five thousand dollars were allocated for equipment, even though $15,000 were needed. So RARI is down below the bare minimum in a vital area, and it’s not too hard to imagine the baseball team running out of bats midway through its season. forcing fhe athletic department to find alternate sources of funding (which probably weren’t available) or eliminate intercollegiate athletics. Aside from that, the splitting of the Department of Health Education seems to be a purely cosmetic maneuvre. Athletics was never one of the administration’s favorite departments, and it clearly still isn’t now. There appears to be a lack of communication between the administration and RARI the fact that Esposito was never told why the new department was created clearly points to this. Regardless of what type of year Buffalo’s teams have on the field, and regardless of how successful this year’s gym courses are, in the, front office, RARI faces an uphill battle. Even if the baseball team doesn’t run out of bats, and they probably won't, there might be no one available in the equipment room to hand them out. Currently, there is only one full-time employee for each of the men’s and women’s equipment rooms. The rooms are open from eight in the morning to ten at and three full-time night, employees for each room would be a reasonable figure. Esposito concluded, “We’re tyring to make the best of a less than bearable situation. It left us with not enough money to do whab we have to do, and it left them with not enough money to do waht they have to do.” Some good points Esposito was quick to point out the vew bright spots' “Dr. Walter Kunz [Associate Dean of Undergraduate Education] has bent over backwards for me. He’s come through on the things that I asked,” Esposito said. “Anybody we’ve gone to for help has been more than willing to help us.” Also, coaches’ salaries have been virtually guaranteed, since all varsity coaches also teach gym courses which are mandated by state law. In the past, the state has threatened to withdraw coaches salaries, — * , The two experienced Bulls figure to be Buffalo’s top players, but LaPenna could not say which was better. Bill Cole played number one singles last spring, but Rob Gurbaski, who was second singles last year, has been coming on strong. Others who probably will win spots in the starting lineup include sophomores Jack Kaminski and David Kerr along with senior Steve Spiegel. LaPenna called Kaminski “a great talent," while Kerr won last year’s intramural tennis tournament and moved up to the varsity for a few games. Spiegel has been more active lately as Student Association’s executive vice president. Freshman team Beyond that, LaPenna figures to rely on some of the many freshmen who tried out,for the squad. For those freshmen who don’t make the team this year, LaPenna is beginning what might be called a junior varsity team. “We’re going to have a small freshman squad,” he said. “We’re doing this strictly on our own since there are no funds. We just want to keep them interested.” LaPenna has tentatively set his doubles teams for the upcoming season with seniors Gurbacki and Cole making up the number one doubles * * Miscellany: Others appointed Bill positions in RAR1 Monkarsh as Director of suggesting Esposito was quick “to point Intramurals and Recreation, a post he held under the old set-up; out the few bright spots. “Dr. former basketball coach Ed Muto Walter suggesting “It Could Have as director of Men’s Been Worse,” John Baboukis for Intercollegiate Athletics; tennis suggesting “Sports Miller” and coach Betty Dimmick as Director Larry Levy of Stony Brook for of Women’s Intercollegiate not suggesting anything. — sportsquiz Today marks the return of a popular feature The Spectrum's Sports Quiz. Last year, the Quiz’s highlight was a photo pertaining to a question, but today we present three “classic” trivia-questions, and unfortunately, no adequate pictures were available Answers are at the bottom Name the two baserunners when Bobby I Thompson hit his famous homerun during the 1951 National League playoffs. 2. Who was Harry Steinfeldt? 3. Off what pitcher did Roger Maris hit his 61st homerun in 1961? - and Spiegel figure to be second while Kerr and Arthur Goldblum, who played together in high school, make up the third combination, Kaminski pair, * to New blood for tennis Bulls , There’s a completely new look about the tennis Bulls this year. Their lineup is new, with only two returnees from last year’s team, and their coach, Tom LaPenna was appointed only a short while before the fall season began. * Athletics; Viola Diebold as Director of Basic Instruction. Dick Baldwin. Director of Sports information has been moved from his- conveniently located offices in Clark Hall to more spacious but inconveniently located offices in The Crofts Building. Baldwin is responsible for off-campus publicity, so RARI has another hardship to deal with. Belated congratulations to former Buffalo baseball player John Buszka for leading the nation in batting average. His .517 was fifty points ahead of the second place finisher. Other Bulls nationally ranked: Bob Amico, eleventh in batting average at .424, seventh in triples and eighth in stolen bases; Him Niewczyk. seventh in strikeouts with 11.3 per game; and the entire team, first in the country with a .361 batting average. I’d like to thank both Rick Davidson and Jim Hunting for • LaPennna’s goal for his first year at the helm is to rebuild the team. “We lost four players from last year,” he noted,, “but I think we should pull out a 50—50 season." LaPenna added that the squad is very young, but that he expects the freshmen to be challenging the established players for spots in the linup as the season progresses. “There's no doubt that we’ll have an established team by this spring or next fall,” he said. Answers: 1. Clint Hartung and Whitey Lockman. 2. He was the third baseman when the Cubs boasted their famous doubleplay combination Tinker to Evers to Chance. 3. Tracy Stallard. Helpful captain The new coach singled out Burbacki, the team’s captain, for helping him with the team. “He’s the team’s leader,” LaPenna said. “He’s a great asset to any team because he’s all for the team. He’s helped me a lot getting me oriented.” Gurbacki was the only Bull to score a win in the team’s opener last Saturday at Cortland. Buffalo lost their remaining singles matches, but were ahead in the doubles competition when rain brought the match to a halt. “That match hurt us because we weren’t ready mentally,” LaPenna said. “We had only two days to prepare while they had two weeks. They came out ready to play.” The Bulls continued their season this weekend at Oneonta. Tomorrow they travel to Rochester, a local tennis power, before opening at home against Niagara on Thursday.

All of which goes to sayrnothing has changed, at least nothing for the better.

Although increased university costs affect all students, no more than a few hundred people at any given time marched, sat-in or attended rallies to fight the cutbacks and cost hikes, with the real work and planning taken care of by fewer than twenty-five people. On the other hand, if some ambitious (and desparate) potheads were to organize a rally to promote the distribution of marijuana, it would be attended by thousands of students, there at-least, in the hope of copping some good reefers. Signs reading:“Bring Back the Brown” and “End the Hex of Mex” would be held high, but it would all be to no avail; the site of the rally would reek of stinknay ragweed. costs.

William Scott, a representative of the New York Life Insurance Company which underwrites the plan, had hoped for a favorable response from 60 percent of the 18,000 eligible students. A Sub Board spokesman howevei*, reported that only 2000 students have applied for waiver of the S67 premium thusfar. The deadline for filing waivers is September 15. Missing forms Sub Board Health Care director Robert Olds said a major problem with the waiver process stems from the failure ot the University to include the waiver forms in the same mailing as the policy information which was mailed to student's several weeks Spectrum Staff Writer Student Association (SA) and Sub Board I have adopted a new comprehensive Legal Services Program which will greatly increase the services previously offered by the Legal Aid Clinic. The new program costs about S30,000. double .the • allocation granted the old Legal Aid Clinic. It will be funded by both Sub Board and SA. They are currently waiting for Appellate Bourt approval and a possible University administration ruling on the legality of using mandatory activity fees to support the new plan. Appellate Court approval is required for agencies which dispense legal advice. Sub Board is a student corporation, which spends about S350.000 in student activity fees. Its hoard of directors is made up of representatives of the six student governments. Under the new program, every student will be entitled to representation involving drug arrests, domestic problems, landlord/tenant suits, and all University-related proceedings. While the program will continue to offer the same types of legal advise as the Clinic, the new plan calls for a public interest component involving research and representation for possible class action suits on relevant social issues, and a research and education aspect utilizing political science and law students to provide the campus community with greater insight into the legal and judicial systems Insetting'up this new program. S A officially withdrew recognition ol the Legal Aid Clinic and transferred the control and funding mechanisms to Sub Board. However, both SA and Sub Board came under criticism I t orn representatives of the Legal Aid Clinic for their handling of the transition procedures, and in the formulation of the proposal itself. Michele Lippa, former Director of the Clinic, said the Clinic stall (including diagnostic x-rays-, laboratory tests, medicines and dressing) and mental and nervous treatment. UgO Donald Larson, associate Vice President for Health Services, said the waiver form was not mailed because the original form was unacceptable and had to be redesigned. The -new form was not ready until it was too late to include it in the mailing package, he explained. To waive the premium the student must complete a waiver form, which can be obtained in Michael Hall, the Millard Fillmore College (MFC) office, the Student Association (SA) office, or the Sub Board Business office. The completed form is submitted to University Health Service in Michael Hall not later than September 15, 19,76 where it will be reviewed.

Mussclman, in explaining the need for a health insurance plan, cited the rising cost of quality health care, as well as sonic key drawbacks in University health service.

The > differ on merit of new program Both Lippa and Granat lelt the large scope of the program, as well as some possible conflicts, such as legal representation for one student group opposing another, might diminish the overall 'quality of the basic services. Norman- Lffman, formerattorney for the Legal Aid Clinic, said that under live provisions in the proposal, an attorney could be involved in 10 15 cases involving litigation per week, and thus be overwhelmed and unable to fulfill the other provisions of the plan. Effman claimed it would require at least three attorneys to conduct the basic operations ol the plan, and given the -existing $30,000 limitation, felt the services,could not be provided. suggested that what S.ub Board had really done was to abolish a functioning program without having anything ready to replace it. Former Clinic Director Lippa claimed she was not contacted until a week alter the Clinic was officially dissolved about the possibility of having the old workers staff the office during the transition period. Dave Brownstcin, now •Acting Services Director, of tlic Sub B d. blamed Ill I' the anxiety of old Clinic workers who feared they would lose their jobs. He conceded that the transition could have been a loj smoother, but claimed that the old Clinic staffdid have input into the process and had submitted their own proposal for a .legal many’ of the problems 'on rejected by Sub Board. Bmwnsicin suid much uj' ihc luis subsided, and that the basic services arc now bciny Controversy provided until necessary administrative and appelate court approval are obtained. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller said he saw no problem with the courts or the University administration. However. Assistant Vice President for Student Allairs Anthony Lor.cn/etti indicated jvisions of the program might need to be clarified before it receives adminsitjation approval tor use of student activity fee money. The SA attorney is Richard Lippes. His law firm's bid to run the new program was accepted by Sub Board. In disagreeing with hliman’s evaluation, Lippes said he would not have submitted a bid il he did not feel he could fulfill the services offered in the program. He added that a program of this nature is unique, and hopes it will serve as a model for other campuses across the country. Still, individuals connected with the old clinic describe the new program as a ploy by SA to replace liftman's law firm with Lippes' firm. They suggested that the program concept originated with Lippes. and that he had contributed to the writing of the proposal. Most of the individuals blamed Sub Board for the confusion in the initial transition period and the problems in maintaining the Oil-Campus Housing Office during the last August. They further was not consulted, and lelt that members of the Clinic should have been asked to sit on the Sub Board Committee wlijch drew up the proposal because ol “their obvious expertise.” Jell Granat. a third year litw student at the Clinic, said students are being slighted by not being provided with the highest quality service.

SA has hired students to maintain an information table at the end of the ID line, equipped with registration forms, absentee balotrequests, and all the necessary information for Using them. Working with SA is the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), which hopes to motivate large numbers of college-age people (18-25) to register to vote, and at the same time to gather statistical data on their registration trends. Problems Ron Wainrib. one of the three local co-ordinators of NYPIRG at this University, staled that in l l>72 less than half of New York Stale’s college students registered to vote. Consequently, candidates for political office did not pay , much attention to the 18-25 age group. Ideally, NYPIRG hopes for a large percentage not only to register, but to complete their survey form, whose ultimate objective will be to. impress political candidates with the number of college students voting, as well as to convince them to take students’ concerns seriously. A few problems are being-anticipated, however. Distribution of literature and forms has been limited due to a lack of student Voting increase •NVP1RC has set up distribution points at Buffalo and five other universities (Syracuse, Brooklyn. Albany. Queens and Binghamton). At these schools, a pamphlet with a thorough explanation of the various laws and procedures involved in registering to vote.

The course is designed for beginners, and she emphasizes "it won't be taught in an academic way it should not be taught by people who are ‘college bred.' but rather by someone who is a professional in the Held.” Strauss .herself has studied under such greats as Martha Graham and Doris Humphrey. In addition, she has choreographed., directed operas, and performed. Her interest in dance criticism grew as a result of several interviews with dancers that she conducted on cable television in Buffalo. Site (eels that dance has traditionally been at the bottom of the totem pole in contrast with the other arts, and yet notes that only within the past decade has interest in dance risen dramatically, reaching an audience that has jumped from one to fifteen million. As a result of the period when dance was not that popular. Strauss feels that even now “most people know little about dance and are willing to admit it." yet many people wish to be better Strauss asks that all interested students contact her at 881-0894.

Schwartz's proposal, on behalf of SA, to have classes begin the Wednesday after Labor Day was voted down 7 to 1.

Stale University of New York regulations require a minimum number of classes to be held on each day of the week. A week of school was added before Labor clay and subtracted at the end of the Christmas vacation in order to save on heating bills, which naturally will be greater during the winter.

A middle-aged graying man, German university in the stacks and papers type, he looked dazed. “I'm so glad to find you,” he kept muttering. (Buffalo has a way of inviting people, meaning to be nice, and often losing track of them, so that would-be chairmen are just sort of left lost in the halls as some other activity claims the host’s attention.) We tried to give the man a chair, a cup of coffee, and to reassure him about Buffalo, though, to be sure, it was certainly far from the center of the universe (when strangers hear that, they often get a certain dazed, disoriented, and frightened look on their face, seeing the parachute they’d been told to leap out of suddenly fail to open in mid-air, that look of tumbling to the professor earth). Finally named his price, what he wanted from Buffalo was a mistress. It was the first time I had seen Bruce Jackson lose his cool. His mouth fell open, and as if he remembered that suddenly not professors are perhaps supposed to sit perched on the tops of desks but on chairs alongside of them, he jumped down, turned off the video. I myself stared at the wall on which was affixed a poster of Jean-Paul Belmondo. Definitely this shy Humbert Humbert had been given the word about the “swinging English department at Buffalo,” and was manfully trying to live up to what he thought was expected of him. The poor man seemed to be suffering from some sort of temporary cultural shock, and on and on he went, quite seriously explaining his needs (in Buffalo people spend a great deal of time discussing their emotional states of mind). 1 think what he was a actually describing was housekeeper, but anyway there was no doubt about it, he was standing his ground.

In the middle of one of those graying Buffalo nights, I sit up in bed, creaming of solutions. The only group I had seen actually make something work on the at campus were the Maoists, there was bright-eyed least organizational discipline in their teach-in. Everything went off on schedule. Certainly there was the sense at, good in Buffalo least of life going on in the place, if at times a bit mad, it was better than no life at all. I thought of the children playing with balloons in a spychedelic tent with strobe lights and music, while nearby the old heated Marxist-Leninist rhetoric of the ’thirties was blanketing the teach-in, and there was something oddly moving and wistful about this American university, this “Buffalo Is a Winter Carnival" ambience that one didn’t want to and see altogether disappear something quite moving in Mdrtin Meyerson’s dream of a free and open campus. Still, something hadto be done to make the whole thing work, so that geniuses, poets, students, and faculty could all go about their business in pegce.

My story is going to be about the week I just spent visiting friends, of mine, Charlie and Gladys. I’ll tell you what I did and what I saw. Fart of visiting these friends of mine is being introduced to The latest in appliances, gadgets and affluent living. You might say that Charlie and Gladys are thoroughly middle-class. Charlie is especially haunted by the American dream of more and more. He’s a compulsive consumer and there are always new purchases to see when 1 visit him. A while ago he went through what I call his “Kodak phase.” He had five or six cameras and three slide projectors. (Most of his slides were of people sitting around a table with drinks in their hands, and of course he never looked at them.) Then he went through his “Panasonic phase,” when there were stereos, portable TVs, and digital clock radios everywhere. Another time motorcycles. Then a it was Cadillac, which got five miles to the gallon. Last summer when 1 visited Charlie there was a new swimming pool. Then 1 arrived this summer, predictably, he had just picked up CB radio. The CB confounded him; he could not see how he had lived so long without it! Charlie and Gladys live on the Jersey shore, so naturally along with their two cars they have a boat. This year, like past years, Charlie had a bigger boat to show me. First he had a small speed boat, not much bigger than a rowboat. This time, however, we went for cruises on what he calls his “personal yacht,” a $12,000 a cabin cruiser. Charlie’s problem is that he is never satisfied. Take his “yacht” for instance. He likes this boat and he is proud of it. However, whenever he is out in it, he cannot help envying the bigger boats that others have. To him, bigger is better. The way Charlie sees it, not to strive for something bigger. when something bigger exists, is to, give up on life itself. Charlie is one who intends to live, so he lives for that bigger something. But 1 don’t want to give you the impression that my vacation was all boat-riding. 1 also had the chance to enjoy the facilities of the famous Charlie’s Playland. What is Charlie’s Playland? Well, it’s actually Charlie and Gladys’ backyard. Years in the making, it is named after its creator and continuing inspiration, Charlie. Besides the pool, there’s a covered patio, an outdoor gas grill, a miniature bar (on wheels), and fun and games galore. The whole thing is surrounded by a high fence. While I was visiting, it was hot and I spent time swimming around in the pool. (I it’s a had to swim around circular pool.) the wm. hengeren co. JIM’S CHARCOAL BROILED HOT DOGS , Z8C30 Niagara Falls — , Sunday, to Charlie’s delight, his playland was utilized to the fullest. Mutual friends of ours arrived and they were on enjoying themselves. There was a barbecue and much eating and drinking. We swam. We played One horseshoes, darts and badminton. Needless to say, beer was poured on a few heads and even the pool’s filter got a little drunk. Every now and then the festivities would slow and Charlie and 1 would have a serious discussion. The best one pertained to the nature and significance of pot-bellies. I mentioned that some people took them to be evidence Charlie, living. of decadent hpwever, did not see bellies in that way. I can remember him, affectionately patting his own paunch, saying, “This is my pleasure spot.” To him, it’s a symbol of success. Consumption is good.

Almost,- • ■ This year Sub Board, through its publication division director, informed the editors of The Spectrum that there would be several stipulations attached to the contract with The Spectrum that had not been made before. There were four relatively unimportant technical stipulations which, it was agreed, would be written i it to the contract. Besides that, there were four provisions advanced by members of Sub Board and the Student Association which were settled as verbal agreements, and are as follows; "Public Service space will be provided. This will be a centralized section b evote d to student government and Sub Board notices (i.e., meetings, grants and scholarships, activities, etc.) "When physically possible, The Spectrum will strive for conscientious coverage of meetings (SA Senate and Assembly; GSA Senate; Sub Board board of directors, etc.) —"On controversial issues, student governments and/or Sub Board will be allowed to address the student body through a Guest Opinion — — 'Public notice will be made of any stipended positions, as they become available As we told the members of Sub Board, alt except the last verbal proviso were already a regular part of the paper's policy,, and were therefor acceptable. The last stipulation is reasonable and presents no difficulty, either. The/point of dragging you through all this discussion is that college journalism as practiced at the State University of Buffalo is not free from restraint and divorced of government intervention; the practicalities of funding a thrice weekfy newspaper do not permit it. At the same time, most of the members of the student government and Sub Board respect the rights of a free press, and restrain themselves from making any overt attempt to influence editorial policy. For a variety of reasons, which probably include a desire to serve the students and a desite to serve themselves, the officers of the Student governments and Sub Board felt it necessary to formalize these provisions As journalists, we recognize our responsibility as a public service vehicle and an avenue of communication for the student governments that help fund us. As journalists, however, we protest the formalized stipulations imposed on The Spectrum this year by Sub Board and the student governments as precedents in the dangerous direction of editorial control, as inroads on the sanctity of what should be a vigorous, free and responsil)le press.

On 'main occasions during this past summer. I could not find a parking space in the Sherman lot where students arc permitted to park- On these occasions. I noticed that both the Sherman faculty lot and the Diefeiulorf lacully/slalf/visilor lot was never more than half full at any given lime. It would have been much easier for me and oilier students if we had been able to have used these two restricted lots when ours was filled. I am annoyed at this My feelings are these whole situation. It was aggravating to have to see practically empty but these two close-by because I was a student I could not. park there. We students who pay luition'and taxes, only ask to be allowed to park somewhere so we can make our classes and other appointments on lime. My suggestion is that at least, during the summer, have open parkipg for everyone. l.csIcV /.Vims Faculty compensation In ih i l iliini 1 want Id commend Tin-’ Spccinun for its concern' with the relative eompensa+ton of faculty as was described in your article oC the Ihtli. I am article on especially pleased that your staff developing a style which examines relevant taels ami figures in somewhat more detail than in the past. I want to adjust some errors that'were in the article, probably due to deadline pressure. X major confusion is in confusing salary with compensation. Your article quoted figures' (front AAUI’ Annual salary Report. I presume! for the average various levels, hi tact those figures' were for salary plus Cringe benefits or average “compensation The writer did mention that the figures combined salary with fringes, but both before and after that clarifying sentence, the compensation figures were referred to as salaries. This contributed to problems when there was a later description of data which I provided on true salary distribution. Your major point-is valid and important; SUNVAIf does have one of the highest compensation and Again, the article made valid points when discussing the differences between male and female faculty salaries at various ranks. However, the figures Therefore, your renders should know I ho t there were only 24K lull-time slate faculty who received he I ween S 25.000 and S'20.000 of which 20 (K percent I were women (not 2K of 520), Also there were only 242 (not 2S7) such faculty who earned over S20.000. of which S (2 percent) were women. It is true that 12 of IS instructors (tenured or tenure-track) were women hut I do not recognize your average salary figures. Nevertheless, your point is both valid and important. Women are clustered at lower ranks and receive lower average salary at given ranks than men do. I also want to expand the statement attributed to me. t here is "a bulge at the highest salary ranks" but this holds whether you discuss faculty or non-facuily. finis, there were 445 tenured l ull Professors and only 2S7 tenured Associate Professors and still fewer Assistant Professors on tenure track (210). Overall, over (>4 percent of the full-time faculty held tenure- and many units were well above this Iniversity average. Since the upper ranks command the largest salaries and the largest annual increments (in absolute dollars), il is clear that there is a gross distortion of the'more frequent pyramid salary structure. furthermore. in a cutback economy, the lowest ranks will he retrenched and the discrepancy will increase. The "tenured in” status of the faculty will make affirmative action hiring even more frustrating than it is now and will contribute to a further gap in.salary and proportion of positions held hy women and minorities. quoted the national percentage of l ull and Associate Professors as ,57 percent. The percentage in December of I‘>75 was'at ft 1 percent for SUNYAIi It is clear that the continuing cojvcentralipn of extremely highly paid senior faculty is a major factor in the budgetary crisis of the University. A given percentage of salary increase becomes a much higher absolute amount when applied to their inflated salary base and drains money (hat otherwise could be used for hiring the highly talented, innovative new generations of faculty. Also, the draJ+mfoesjnot contribute an increment in service to the University directly since the same people are merely being paid more- finally., the drain lakes money that could otherwise be used-for graduate assistantships (which ) In'chising.

Mitch Hen/a, on loan from Buffalo State's Strait magazine, has contributed his view of the Beach Boys. by John Duncan Music Editor How is it that the typical rock audience will stand for five minutes, simultaneously clapping and screaming for more, only to end the ovation with almost equally overpowering boos and jeers when refused a second or third encore? Such a farewell was conveyed to Jeff Beck and the Jan Hammer Group after a stunning set and one encore, 90 minutes of thoroughly professional jazz-rock which came as a completely unexpected bonus to a great many of the people there. Although the exact figures are not likely to become available, it is probably safe to say that about 70 percent of the crowd was present to see the Bpach Boys, who were to go on last. With Memorial Aud filled to capacity, this works out to a rather large number of disinterested or unfamiliar listeners to be diverted by the unlucky second fiddles of this unlikely doubling bill. The what brothers? The evening was actually opened by the Kate Brothers ("Mr. Union Man"), whose lack of memorability typified the faceless "filler" acts who always seem to open events of this nature. A four-piece rock band with R&B aspirations, the Brothers played a predictably short set, highlighted only by tight vocal harmonies and isolated smiles of recognition as they sneaked into a ten-minute version of their hit single, which resembles none of their other material. Next? Beck did not come onstage at first, allowing the Jan Hammer Group to warm.up the audience with "Oh Yeah!,' the title cut to their Saunders recent album. Comprised of Steve Kindler (violin), Fernando characteristic (bass), and Tony Smith (drums), the outfit played "fusion" fare, proving to be a flawless backdrop vehicle for the —continued on page 14— Everybody liked the Beach Boys been stereotyped and trapped ever Not that this is an uncomfortable position tor since. the boys, they're still filthy rich. Why, they even withstood that psychedelic period of bullshit when Brian was getting shot down by gvery, rock critic in the country. They just never gave him a chance back then, but that question of Suburban mass acceptance may be answered by a hypothesis'l propose here and They've now. It seems that we are dealing with the second generation of Beach Boys consumers, not the first. Primarily I find that a majority of heavy metal (Black Sabbath, Kiss, etc.) is consumed in the inner city core of tough punk-street latitudes where theey aviod the Beach Boys like they avoid the Osmonds. Out in suburbia, things are still peachy even though dope consumption is higher due to increased affluence. Here the kids can relate to the Beach Boys because they sing about materialistic wants and good times of the middle classes. I Funny, y'know? When was a kid everybody liked the Beach Boys, but always listened to the music as a background-track to my childhood. It was there and I listened to the stuff but I always took it on a musical rather than a lyrical acceptance. was too young to drive or pick up girls.

As they were setting up keyboards to the right of the, stage before the set, I was letting my imagination wander, hoping that Brian Wilson would appear behind that keyboard' console. After all, why should the other four revel in all the glory; Jeez, Bri, I thought you got over your monk-like behavior. Regardless, the Boys had an excellent sound system and their accompanists consisted of a brass section (which added considerable fullness to the numbers it was used on), as well as percussionist Bod Figeroa, bassist Ed Carter (I still miss Bruce Johnston) and the likes of Billy Hinschp, who sang the verses to. "Sail on Sailor," as well as. playing keyboards and guitar. - ■ The applause was voracious upon, recognition of the classics by all the youngsters present. This is also amazing, since the Beach Boys' more dated classics aren't played with such great regularity on the radio, except on rare occasions such as the "Beach Boys month" Buffalo airwaves seem to be going through lately. When the group reverted to cuts from the new album, the applause was less deafening. Believe me, the new album is solid and the choice of numbers (which from it was good. Songs like "It's OK Ones) Big 15 and single the from should have been Al Jardine's "Suzie Cincinatti” were performed with just as much loving care as the surfin' favorites. At one point when Mike Love introduced a cut from the new album he said something to the effect that they were in hopes of a successful single, "and believe me we need it". Not the money of course, but the success of the single to prove that they still have the touch. And they still do have it.

Thanks to superb casting by Artistic Director Robin Phillips, combined with a rare talent that makes everything the festival company touches turn to gold, this bittersweet story of romance and revenge becomes as alive to us as the actors themselves. Shy lock Out of The Merchant of Venice comes one of the memorable figures in literary history: Shylock, the most Antonio, Venetian merchant whose ships are all at sea. Bassanio needs the money to finance his suit for the hand of Portia, an heiress from Belmont. Shylock agrees to the loan, although he hates Antonio fpr the way the merchant has treated him and interfered with his business by lending money interest-free, on the condition that Antonio will sign a bond to forfeit one pound of flesh if he does not repay the principal on the stipulated day. Mission accomplished Meanwhile, in Belmont, Baddanio succeeds in winning Portia’s love, as well as choosing the correct one of three caskets which contains her portrait, a condition of marriage set forth in her dead father's will. The lovers' joy is compounded by the announcement of the impending marriage of Bassanio's friend, Gratiano, to Portia's companion, Nerissa. Back in Venice, Antonio learns that his ships have met with disaster and cannot reimburse Shylock on time. Shylock, his heart hardened by the elopment of his daughter, Jessica, with Lorenzo, a Christian, is determined the end when he loses all, Shylock has never been dealt accept no payment for the default his toll and will short of one pound of Antonio's Flesh. Deaf to pleas of mercy and refusing even twice the original sum, Shylock stands by his rights to the forfeiture-in court until Portia, disguised as a lawyer, rules that drop of blood, as blood is not mentioned in the bond. Finding this drop of bliid, as blood is not mentioned in the bond. Finding this loses half his property and his religion as punishment for attempting losed half his property and his religion as punishment for attempting to take the jjfe of a Venetian citizen. to exact Jew. Although this' character has the potential to be an emotionless stereotype, Shakespeare has wisely endowed him with qualities that make him as vulnerable and; therefore human, as any other man. When Shylock, greedy, vengeful person that he is, utters the words, "Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions?" one has to feel sympathy and a little guilt for the loneliness he has endured. Shylock is by profession a usurer and to him one day comes Bassanio, who seeks to borrow 3000 ducats (Approximately $20,000) on the credit of his friend, V '-v Unjust treatment — - GRADUATE OR UNDERGRADUATE CREDIT AVAILABLE: FALL 1976 MUSIC DEPARTMENT ENSEMBLES DAY & TIME PREREQUISITE ensemble University Chorus University Choir U/B Winds U/B Symphony Band U/B Jazz Ensemble Collegium Musicum University Opera Studio University Philharmonia University Orchestra � The motivation behind iShylock's adamant desire to get revenge from AntonioSs clear.

He kindly dedicated the number to all the girls in the audience, and this was met with another round of sexual fantasy. Everybody got their wishes fulfilled that night. The most ironic part of the concert came when Mike made reference to all the "older folks" in the audience. Towards the end of the show he reiterated "I've never seen so many old people make such fools of themselves." He should have taken a walk around the audience and seen what I curiously took note of before making such statements. There eere very, very, very few thirty-year olds at the concert that for the overdubbed guitar lines heard on the records, there was little or night.

I want prool that they can be just as good and new as they were ten years ago. Speaking from a realistic point of view, this all depends on the actions of Brian Wilson. In the past his ideas were looked upon by the rest of the group with questionable remorse, and today they- look to him for the success of the future with these same ideas. Brian Wilson is the Beach Boys, and has one of the greatest pop minds to evolve oh this planet. No one will ever understand years after the success of "Good Vibrations" what actually happened. And I don't want to know. I wanna keep Brian in my mind as perfect and musically untouchable as he was in the early sixties. Brian should have toured with the band this time aroimd.

The music was still a vehicle where jazz musicians could display their ultimate axe skills, but it also displayed the amplification and simple time signatures adored by the palates of rock aficionados. In the seventies this music went mass market with the early projects of the Mahavishnu Orchestra and later with the solo products of the members of this band, the most noteworthy examples being Billy Cobham's Spectrum and Jan Hammer's and Jerry Goodman's Like Children. Today this genre of music, which has been aptly labeled "progressive rock-jazz" features many stars, among whom shine brightly are Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Larry Coryell and Jeff Beck'. Perhaps though one of the most ingenious, but less commercially accepted artists is bass player Stanley Clarke. Though Clarke is not exactly void of His appeal here is customary standard, the sole purpose Of rhythm, he uses the bass as a lead instrument. In this sense, Clarke's playing is impressive, for not only is it unusual for the bass player to be the focal point, but he performs with precision and speed that substantiates his high placing in recent Downbeat j Cameras Although it might not be apparent, it is not only the uniqueness of Clarke's playing that sets School Days apart from other albums irv this vein.

One of the most pleasing explanations for this is the choice of Sancious instead of someone like Jan Hammer.

Generally speaking, albums are not bought because they offer and excellent rhythm section. On the contrary, with the release of School Days. Stanley Clarke may be about to break this barrier, as well as a few others. To begin with, Clarke is light-years ahead of most other bass players in musical virtuosity. His ability to propel enthusiasm is best ’exemplified on the title track, an exuberant eight minute exercise led by his creative propensity. Instead of the usual , electric etcentricities that McLaughlin normally adds, he accentuates the piece with some very Django Reinhard-sounding six string: Also on the cut is the interesting percussion highlights of CTI veteran Milton Holland. If none of this sounds appealing, there is always the supercharged combination of Clarke, Billy Cobham, George Duke and Icarus Johnson on the last song of the album, "Life is Just A Game". To say the least about this record, Clarke is true to his art and has not sold out to any mechanized formulas. Whatever your taste is in regard to jazz or rock, Stanley Clarke will satify your musical thirst. jt-CaLEVI •LEE lRNDLUBBUR HIMRLRYR I SUNDOWNER] Biacount prieaa Guys G Gala Slxmm WASHINGTON SURPLUS OERTER "Tent City” mMMMTIWVCa mgrn WS-tBISHH Prodigal Sun Bflo.,N.Y. - ...CHECK IT OUT • • • • • • • •••••*•• ! tmmmm l?005£.y£LT C/\R;/ 7~L£’ VOUR S'worc.lt WRRNCLERI CRMPUS ' a.m. • —Dimitri Papadopoulos - 2 Munchies ‘til C,R/ 20/*^ 1,65 M / ~f>Cus 'S CHICKEN WINGS 1.0foiT 1.35 Jvrow OPEN VJED’-' XMURS fJil SAT > M M iOPn^lAH Friday, 10 September 1976 .

Their technique at the time, which was amply apparent on their first four albums, was to play louder, longer and faster. Steal Your Face, which was recorded at Winterland Arena, in 1974, is quite a departure from Live Dead, the album that best expressed their synonomy with the acid culture of the sixties. What is found on Steal Your Face is a more polished and structured band; a band that no longer relies on sheer energy to propel them into far-off spaces, Instead the Dead lay back, churning out new familiars and playing arrangements of old lackadaisical ballads. Though they, have picked upmuch in technical proficiency over the years, the band has lost most of their urgency. One reason the Starship sounds different now is the change in personnel they have gone through, New to the band, in place of old Airplane members Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Cassidy (who went on to form Hot Tuna), are innovative lead guitarist Craig Chaquio, bassist Pete Sears, drummer Johnny Barbata from C.S.N, and Y„ and David Freiberg from Quicksilver Messenger Service. An important plus for the band's reincarnation is the return of lead singer Marty Balin. Marty helps, the band considerably with his vocal efforts, especially by patching up weak harmonies and by adding original songs to the band's repitoire.. "Cruisin" is immediately his most recognizable contribution to the album and will undoubtedly be the most popular. The song is an up-beat rock number about the happiness found a Maybe the words that best describe Steal Your cruisin' and beepin' in your automobile. Surely that Face are Deja-vu. With the exception of a.few songs is easy to identify with; at least it is in comparison to which work well, are a pleasure to hear, and uphold the flying saucers they always sing about. What's their image of excellence in live musical virtuosity more is that "Cruisin," like the rest of the album, is ("Big, River" and "El Paso"), little turntable time going to please the ''its got a good beat and you can will produce the overwhelming sensation of having dance to it" types, as well as the West Coast music heard it all,before. freaks. Analyzing, each song is pointless, as the album contains nothing new, taut is simply a live version of their last few albums. What really bothers me is that at the time the Dead bothered to record this crap, they also bothered to sink about 300,000 dollars into a movie of the same event. As the story goes, Ambrosia, Somewhere I've Never Travelled (20th Century Records) God, what a trip it was, walking out of Fellini's Satyricon and listening to the new Ambrosia album. I thought Fellini made the album. Where else do we find a love song such as "Danse With Me George," a piece Chopin hypothetically wrote for his flame, writer George Sand? But the way they do it- whew! It's a bigstep from their last album, their first as well, and they really go bananas this time. Ambrosia contained doses of Kurt Vonnegut Jr., T.S. Eliot and Lewis Carroll. Somewhere I've Never Travelled has poetry recitals, and orchestrated cowboy showdown (gunshots included), elephant stampedes, African war chants, pinball machines and traffic noise. Enough to make Pink Floyd jealous. Let's face it, it's a pretty strange album. The tunes themselves are Beatle-ish, but that's narrowing a bit as well. There are definite shots of Yes vocals and Frank Zappa arrangements throughout most cuts. They rock hard but in a sophisticated way, with some amazing guitar and keyboard interplay as well as unobtrusive string arrangements to heighten the action. Besides tight harmonies, Christopher North stands out with his prowess on the acoustic and electric keyboards. This boy is one ace-upthe-sleeve other bands would like to hold. \ Three cuts on the album shine as arty and adventures in themselves. "Cowboy Star" is a Althqugh the Starship, like the Dead, have put an album that also includes a beautiful cover, they have at least proved that it's what's inside that counts. Spitfire is an album one should play to get into a good mood Dimitri Papadopvulos out melodic ballad depicting the fantasy world all we up-and-coming dreamers would like to get into, the one of a rootin' shootin' cowboy. The song breaks momentarily for an instrumental scene, orchestrated right out of a motion picture score. The sound effects man has a field day with "The Brunt", a trip that brings us into the jungle or everyday life as these boys see it. The real epic is "Danse With Me George" which goes to prove that even classical composers can rock with clever lines "You know your lips can spout quotations/But when your hips start their : gyrations/They can thaw Valley Forge/Danse with me George . . ." It all sounds like some upbeat grand waltz and it breaks into the instrumental "Le Danse" that includes some Spanish finger snappin' and a humorous foxtrot on the sax. And the way Christopher North lets loose those ultra-classical riffs should make Elton John retreat back to the Royal Music Ac^emy. Credit all the elaborate arrangements to the band too. This is the group that has it all. Even a knockout cover for the album that folds into a pyriamid and can be placed on the table next to your T V. (and it holds the record too). If their first album didn't get them on the track of popularity, this album has got to do it. Who says rock n' roll can't be cultured? Ambrosia says to hell with all the pseudo intellectuals do it with class! Drew Kerr — Prodigal Sun �Roxy Music, Viva! (ATCO) RECORDS Roxy Music maintain a weird blend of energies throughout their new live album, Viva! Stiangeness takes the form of anachronism in listening to an album that doesn't feel "live," It doesn't seem dead either, folks. The senses tell you it's “limbo,"hut you can't believe what you hear about any Roxy Music album. How about, et, sounds like, ah "Alive Can there be life in an inanimate object? The musical answer is, "Yes." A turntable turns, its heart beats steadily, its blood pumps. The force breathes, it lives. But, in actuality, it's truly cold.

If applause- is present, meditative thoughf is stopped. With simple intricacy, instruments are layered, one on top of the other, to secrete sounds relatively pure gnd untarnished in "The Bogus Man." Like rain falling to a river, swirling into a waterfall, the sound builds to a clear, rushing cresendo at the falls' base. Sound is smooth but wary of rabid audience reaction, i.e. cat-calls and rhythmic clapping; Bryan Ferry concocting verbal potions, drugging audience minds to feel the Roxy magic. Ferry's keyboards and Andrew Mackay's saxophone add to Phil Manzanera's guitar a sensuous glow, growing, bursting to a rehearsed musical tantrum in "Both Ends Burning." Of course, when the pacedd tantrum's point is made, the song is climaxed, and the roped crowd is left hanging, inflated but a bit unfulfilled. (Now I know how some of my lady friends feel.) And the audience claps while the listener listens. But the strand of feeling remaining is somewhat exciting and its weaving is forceful. Ferry's airy, breathy voice mutes the extroverted tone of his lyrics to an opposing meaning that is confidential, perhaps grim. Such a secretive edge based upon open energy breeds enigma at the least and manic abstraction at the most As a "live" album, Viva! fails. Throughout the summer, really since the success of Clapton Comes Alive, there, has been a profusion of marketed "live" albums. Only a handful of "big-name" artists sold very well. With the exception of the "live" abandoned the group a few albums ago, whose Renaissance album, the performances were poor. departure led Bryan Ferry From the incarnate The only boon to the overall gimmick was the price shadows to the rocky Roxy foreground. Ferry broke for the packaged two-record sets. By no means iS Roxy Music completely a the mold of Eno's gay theatrics by employing an articulate diligence which is a formula for good rock "studio" group, to see them is to wholly appreciate 'n roll. While Eno was an experimental rocker ala them. Capturing Roxy Music "live" is a sadistic act that stunts the sensual growth linked to the visual Lou Reed, Ferry is steady and basic. Basic rock sells records and is more appealing experience of viewing the band on stage. What you than that of the experimental genre.

Friday, 10 September 1976 service from 11 110 IVuneridye 2 offices in countries. Avenue, Cupertino, CA 9S014 �Marathon by David J. Rubin Special I calincs l:iliior The naming of buildings at ibis University is not ,one of the more pressing problems of the day. If people are willingto accept names like "Mayes A" or "4224 Ridge Lea." then there is little hope that the board Trustees' of Wives (or whoever picks out the names for new buildings) will ever see lit to let some creativity in the way. Most schools name their buildings for people who make large contributions of time and/or money. Without doing any extensive checking, there likely were Buffalo benefactors named Hayes. Foster. Parker who deserve to' have buildings that bear their names. In fact. Pcellc Field honors Jim Pccllc who is now in his fifth decade with the physical education program at Buffalo. However, the new buildings at the Amherst Campus present a problem. Slate schools in New York notoriously, lack private donations, and there are no friends of the University who deserve ,to have their names carved in stone forever. As a result, the BTW (that’s see above) has started groping for suitable Board of Trustees' Wives names. Take Governor’s Residence Halls for instance. The only thing Tom Dewey is remembered for is not healing Harry Truman in 1948. Governor Lehman already has an entire college named for him. As for Teddy Roosevelt, he only hung around the Governor's mansion until his big stick took him into the White House. DeWitt Clinton was dead before the University of Buffalo was created,. ElHcott is even worse. Even if you're willing to accept Joseph P. as notable Buffalonian. that still doesn't excuse Peter Porter. William a Fargo or Red Jacket. What we need is relevance. Halls should be named after people whose contributions to society affect our daily lives. Moreover, we need people Who students can identify with. What kind of love can you build up for Dean Richmond? The first thing to be done is to replace the BTW with the SB1W (Sons of the Board of Trustees' Wives see above) or SBT for short. Hopefully, these younger, more aware souls will see lit to enact changes like some of these: Change Governors' Residence to Bcatle Dormitory and rename the four wings John, Paul. George and Ringo, Change Ellicolt to Sabre City and rename the quads Perrault. Marling, Robert. Schoenleld. Korab and Desjardins. The intradorm rivalry would spring up almost immediately. When the new student union is finally coniplete.it would only be fair to name it Krainden Hall as the counterpart to Main Streets Union, Norton Hall. If any additions are made at the recently opened Samuel H. Clemens Hall, they might be named Huck 1 inn Hall. Becky , Thatcher Theatre, or Tom.Sawyer Library. Ridge Lea presents an interesting opportunity for the SBT to show its creativity. Numbered buildings like those at the Lea'a re just asking for improved names. If a numbered system is necessary, how about “Log O Ridge Lea” or “D x2. x=l Ridge Lea? v Calculus grades are sine to rise. • If things go well, the SBT might even try changing names. Lord knows, whoever’s hr charge now hasn’t been afraid of,change. John Lord O’Brian Hall (or is it Lord John O’Brian) could be changed to Perry Mason, much more fitting for a school ol law in this day and age. Do you know who Christopher Baldy is'.’ There is one theory that he's an eagle cooked up or A .-A. Milne in an obscure Winnie the Pooh t ale.’Cert a inly a change i.s in order here too. It is a shame that the prospect for any ot these changes actually coming about is grim. This dilemma is just another dillicull situation that ■ students, as well as faculty, will have to grin and boar here at Buffalo. But then, things are rough all over. - • " ■ Sh6rter wins Falmouth face Last summer. defending Olympic marathon champion Frank Shorter won a. duel with Marathon defending Boston champion Bill Rodgers in the Falmouth Road Race, held in Cape Cod. Massachusetts. Rodgers was also the defending Falmouth Road Race champion of 074. Everyone said that the promoter Tommy Leonard couldn't possibly top last year's feat. He did. How? Well, both/ Shorter and Rodgers had each experienced their disappointments in the rain in Montreal. After both made the Olympic team Shorter, the pre-race favorite for the marathon, was upset in his attempt to recapture the gold medal, by relatively unknown Waldemar Czicrpenski of East Germany, and had to settle for second. Rodgers, after leading for the first third of the race, faded badly and wound up 40th in a field of 70.

Monkarsh has added some Staff Writer innovations for the competitive football leagues. He would like to expand the leagues out on the Amherst Campus, and if possible, start leagues with other neighboring colleges. new With classes how in full swing, it's another exciting year at Buffalo.

It also includes an extended coverage clause which continued certain kinds of coverage after the basic benefits have depleated. Although the plan does not provide blanket benefits, which is unlimited, but The plan, discussed in detail at last 'hursday night’s meeting of Sub Board, Would allow students already covered by some form of health insurance to waive the fee. Those who do pay will be entitled to the full range of benefits negotiated by Sub Board Health Care Division Director A1 Campagna. (Campagna withheld the name of the insurance company pending notification of those firms whose bids were has risen. He also said doctors and hospitals have become increasingly reluctant to treat students whom they suspect will never pay their bill. Campagna began his efforts to bring back compulsory-with-waiver health insurance in 1973. Along the way he obtained endorsements.from major student groups and specific permission from the State University Board of Trustees to The division directors’ participation is justified because 1 they are responsible for supervising all personnel and are aware of the day-to-day operations of the division. “Sub Board is a further rejected.) The Sub Board directors, division heads, and employees also debated the terms of a new system of employee evaluation which provides for yearly review of salaried positions. student-owned, Ketter’s tentative approval of the health insurance plan came when he returned to Sub Board a letter-of-intent to do business with the insurance company, allowing Sub Board to sign the letter and cany out a program in which the University would require participation. Sub Board Executive Director Tom Van Nortwick said this was the first time Ketter had formally recognized Sub Board, ’ which was incorporated in 1971. Executive Director, to date.” Several board members countered that including the division directors in the evaluation would unnecessarily complicate the process and cause inconsistency in the evaluations among the different divisions. They added that a division director’s presence may make an employee uncomfortable. Board members stressed that the evaluation process was aimed mainly at evaluating the position and changing the job description, not evaluating the employee. UUAB Division Director Susan Cassute, however, held that the division directors would be included because they have frequent contact with the employees in each division and with the Executive Director. Counsel ruling first submitted the letter-of-intent to Ketter, but he was told after inquiring of SUNY Central legal counsel in Albany that he could not sign untU the plan had been reviewed by the State Office of General Services, a process that would take at least two months. This would have made it impossible to implement' the plan by September, so Ketter returned the letter-of-intent to Sub Board. This meant that “the University has determined there will be already compulsory-with-waiver health insurance, not Sub Board,” Van Nortwick told the Board. Campagna said the University will mail letters explaining the plan to students and their parents in August, insurance identification cards will be issued in the fall. The fee will be collected by the Bursar’s office. The plan covers accidental injury, ambulance service, anesthetic, surgical student-financed corporation and should promote the maximum feasible amount of student input.” “We believe that the Evaluations Committee should actively require the division directors’ input and are surprised that we have nofbeen contacted, especially concerning the evaluation of Sub Board’s # Sub Board had should be mandatory. As the evaluation procedure currently stands, the division directors may only be present at meetings between Board members and employees at the employees request. The division directors’ letter said their participation in the evaluation procedure was necessary to halt what they see in recent years as “a pattern of student-staff dichotomy” on Sub Board. scheduled benefits,” all coverage is extensive for student type problems,” Campagna explained. The plan also provides that unused premiums be used either to improve the benefits or lower the fee. Campagna said at the meeting that compulsory-with-waiver student health insurance had been the pOlicjjfat this University through the 1960’s. In 1970, however, the University administration decided to make the program completely voluntary. Since then, Campagna said, the benefits have deteriorated while the cost conduct an experimental compulsory-with-waiver insurance program here for three years. Campagna will step down as Health Care Division Director this month. The new director i£ Bob Olds. Employee evaluations lire debate over the terms of the new Sub Board employee evaluations centered around a letter from four Sub Board division directors Health Care, Norton Hall, Publications and UUAB who feel their participation in the evaluation process - - Additionally, Publications Division Director Bill Finkelstein pointed out that if a committee head or employee within a division resigned, the division director has nd formal avenue of input into choosing a successor, as the evaluation process currently stands. Board members reminded the division directors that they may involve themselves in the process by writing a letter at any time. The relative powers and responsibilities of the board of directors and division directors has been a longstanding debate within Sub Board. Social Science Support for College shown Members and supporters of Social Sciences College picketed Hayes Hall Tuesday to protest today’s scheduled termination of the College by President Robert Ketter. About 60 people, including members of the Student Association, Women’s Studies College, Graduate Student Employees Union, United University Professions, Civil Service Employees Union and National Lawyers Guild, joined Social Sciences College members in sending a delegation into Hayes Hall to request a meeting with Executive Vice President Albert Somit. According to one spokesman, the group wanted to arrange a meeting with Somit to discuss the impending “unjust and arbitrary” suspension of the College. Somit refused to meet with the group until it presented a written request and proposed agenda. “Somit has refused to meet with us before July 30,” said Howard Kling, a spokesman for the College. He stated the group would provide a written request, although he did not think there would be many planned protests until the fall. “Our main strategy is for the fall when we’ll put more pressure on the administrators,” he said. He feared that even if the College was reinstated in the fall, “it wouldn’t have the same kind of budget as it did before.” Social Sciences College was founded in ' before closing date 1970 to study political economy and contemporary social issues from a radical perspective. In the course of this study, many members of the College included the study of Marxism, which has become the dominant trend in the College over the last two or three years. While the University claims that Social Sciences College was abolished because of questions concerning the qualifications of some instructors, a College spokesperson maintained that this was only a cover for the administration’s opposition to the political beliefs and activities of the College. The picketers chanted slogans charging Ketter and the College’s Dean, Irving Spitzberg, with violations of academic freedom in their decision to rescind the College’s charter. Additionally, the group claimed subliminally catchy; and that Ketter’s decision was undemocratic, since he refused to endorse the decision of the of the Chartering majority report Committee, which reviewed the College this past semester. The Committee majority report recommended “provisional approval” until January 1977, when the College’s charter is up for renewal. Social Sciences College plans to distribute its response to Ketter’s letter campus-wide, and to conduct a petition campaign the first two weeks of school in the fall session, culminating in a large rally. �Controversy Halfway-houses questioned by Paul Dluqosz county Spectrum Staff Winter Political and psychiatric groups in Buffalo are currently involved in a growing controversy over dispersal of mental patients throughout the community. The the dispute is centered around concentration of group treatment residences in certain neighborhoods, particularly along Elmwood Avenue. There are several types of “halfway houses,” a term which counselors who were interviewed by The Spectrum prefer to use. The biggest source of clients is the Buffalo Psychiatric Center, formerly called Buffalo State Hospital, which has cut its own in-patient population from over 4000 ten years ago to 650 today. This is part of a statewide policy of integrating mental patients into the community. About 606 former residents of the operated by the Center are now living in “family care drawn attention are those Youth, the for Division $50 week State N.Y. per family receives homes.” A Probation Department, and Catholic per patient to provide room, board and “some supervision” for persons until they Charities.

He maintained that he is not against “de-institutionalization” but opposes concentrating too According to many facilities in a few areas. proposed the office, Swift’s Councilman the geographical mapping directory, distribution of facilities in the county, “could be used as an argument against new centers in neighborhoods that have several halfway houses already.” Besides trying to influence department policy on site location, politicians can also use zoning regulations to try to block unwanted facilities. Last month a center for alcoholics in the Elmwood vicinity was refused a zoning permit on the grounds that the area was “saturated.” Local mental health professionals maintain that they have given adequate preparation in choosing clients and sites, with favorable results as compared to other areas. (One employee of a Rochester Psychiatric facility; reported that his unit to was given a quota of patients who had month, community each be placed in the regardless of whether the halfway houses or clients were ready. None of the local mental health professionals interviewed was aware of a similar policy locally.) Media focus Tom Nelson is a counselor at a Youth Division 'residence at 6 Courtland Avenue, which has seven youths and two counselors. He described the relationship with the neighbors as very good over the last six years, and said that most of the by family agencies. court, were referred the police,, or other Orndoff, director of stated that they have Services,, Transitional adequate supervision, with 54 counselors for the 160 clients, and the “successes far outnumber the failures.” However, he said that the media focused only on the occasional individual who attracts attention. He described the neighborhood response as “passive acceptance.” Residents are generally free to come and go, but a curfew or other restrictions may be used on an individual basis as needed. No one can be kept in a “halfway house” against their will, according to the Mental Hygiene Law. Omdoff said that the biggest criteria for selecting locations was the availability of large buildings for sale and access to public transportation and ' social services. Presently, the greatest concentration of halfway houses and family care homes is in the west-central part of Buffalo between Richmond and Fillmore Avenues. The lack public .suburbs generally transportation and other sections of Buffalo lack inexpensive, large buildings that would be suitable. It is possible that alternate systems of delivering mental health care might reduce the present concentration of facilities in certain neighborhoods, by designing different types of facilities and reaching people in the neighborhoods where they already live. However, a program of community education would be needed to reach more mentally ill people and prepare for greater community acceptance. Richard - Schizophrenia Soteria House alternative therapy Spectrum Staff and a commune.” Mosher is a proponent of a psycho-social theory of schizophrenia, which he views not ‘as a “disease” but instead as an altered state of consciousness in an individual who is experiencing a major crisis in living. This “crisis theory” is espoused at Soteria House. Non-professionals work with those persons deemed schizophrenic and guide them through their psychotic experiences, rather than repress their behavior (as with drugs and electroshock therapy). Mosher explained the function of nonprofessionals. “We believe that untrained, psychologically relatively unsophisticated persons can work within this theoretical framework more easily than highly trained ones because they have learned no theory of schizophrenia, whether psychodynamic, organic, or a combination of both. This allows them freedom to be themselves, to follow their visceral responses, to adopt a phenomenological stance, and to be a ‘person’ with the psychotic individual.” family by Victor Gulotta Writer As an alternative to hospitalization for people diagnosed “schizophrenic,” a therapeutic community called Soteria House has been developed in the San Fransisco Bay area. Dr. Loren R. Mosher, Chief of the Center for Studies of Schizophrenia at the National Institute of Mental Health and consultant psychiatrist at the community in San Fransisco refers to it as “a cross between an extended Nonheirarchical At Soteria there is no real medical heirarchy. No one carries out the roles of the doctor, nurse, attendant, patient staff and residents live and work together in a nonauthoritarian atmosphere. There is no kind of formal program of “therapy” and there is a minimal amount of structured activities. At Soteria, psychosis is viewed as a valid experience and the staff emphasizes understanding that experience rather than negating and aborting it. Even such extreme forms of behavior such as are allowed and seen as regression necessary for psychological growth. Mosher elaborated on his view of schizophrenia. “My position is that I don’t know what it is, and what I’d like to do is assume a stance that is most positive for the individual. If you assume that the person has a brain malfunction, that gives you a certain set of expectations about the person; but if you assume that the person is in a crisis and he’s got terrible problems, then you can approach him in a positive way.” Defending what some consider to be an overly optimistic stance he added, “I’m not denying the reality of odd, bizarre — Page two The Spectrum Friday, 30 July 1976 . . behaviors that one sees - the person needs help, obviously. We view that problem as a difficult one, but one that is change not without potential to change in a positive way.” some — Comparison of patients The Soteria project consists of an experimental group and a control group. The control group resides at Soteria, the experimental group is treated at a local community health center. All those persons deemed in need of hospitalization and formally doagnosed schizophrenic are admitted on the basis of their age (16-30), their marital status (single) and their medical history (little or no previous hospitalization). The Soteria people are guided and “treated” extra-medically by specially trained paraprofessionals. The control group (who meet the same criteria as the experimental group) are treated in a traditional psychiatric manner, characterized by a structured ward milieu, an orientation towards symptom suppression and an avoidance with close, prolonged, contacts. one-to-one interpersonal Mosher explained the results. “We find that in terms of symptoms, Soteria people get better as quickly and as well as the other people do, even though all of the control subjects in the hospital get phenothiazenes. The Soteria people still do as well over the short term and certainly over the longer term as the hospital patients do, although very few of the Soteria people get drugs while all of the hospital people do.” Reintegration Mosher identified the main difference between the two groups as being the degree of psychosocial functioning after discharge. “Soteria people are able to leave home; they begin go out and to live independently of their families or origin. Seventy percent of the people treated in the hospital go back home. At Soteria, about fifteen percent go back home the rest go out to be independent. This is associated with increased levels of community activity.” — Readmission rates are substantial at both places. As of now, roughly 45 percent of the control subjects will be back in the hospital. Among the Soteria subjects, it’s about 35 percent. Violent behavior at Soteria is dealt with in an interpersonal way. People exhibiting violent behavior are physically restrained by staff members if necessary, but no person is ever locked up. No type of mechanical restraints, such as wet packs and straight jackets, are ever used. The Soteria project is funded by two National Institute of Mental Health grants one supports the staff and the other supports the research. Mosher spoke of his opposers. “As we are becoming better known, organized psychiatry is beginning to get very unhappy with us. So far, we have survived. Organized psychiatry is not known for its openmindedness. I think that we have established a viable alternative to hospitalization for at least some people who are deemed schizophrenic. It certainly is more human.” — �Newcomers discover Buffalo during Freshman Orientation in it temporarily disrupted last year’s program and got the planriing off to a late start, Ferber said.

There was no fanfare, no celebration; in fact, some of us are still waiting for our fair share of springtime. After the long wait, Buffalonians are sure to take pleasure in the balmy months, even if they’re not jubilant. Aside from the Allentown Art Festival, which drew a throng of nearly 200,000, most summertime events here have been on a much smaller scale. Corner hangouts are. especially visible, and a stroll along any Buffalo street on a sunny day Will reveal backyard'pools and the hidden family activities dinner cookouts. On the whole, most people agree - it’s a quiet and restful atmosphere a drastic change from the high-pitched activity level during the rest of the school year. Replies to questions about summerlife in Buffalo ranged from “ideal” to “idle.” After racking his braih for several thoughtful moments, one summer resident decided that the most memorable event in his summer so far has been finding a job. Most people, when asked about interesting summer experiences here name activities outside the city. - In the city and out Zoar Valley attracts large numbers of students every summer with its deep shale gorge cut out by three rivers and a dramatic waterfall. In the same vicinity is Ashford Hollow, a small County town which houses Griffis Sculpture Park. On a clear moonlit night the twenty foot steel figures seem to parade gracefully over the rolling hills. Other events outside the city include Artpark theater productions and concerts, such as a Mozart marathon and Shakespearean plays. general Cattaraugus For the faithful urbanites, Buffalo offer*; a rollicking night life. Of course there’s the Eiuiwood strip, Anacone’s, and Central Park Grill (CPG). Some prefer the sound of jazz, or a Sunday poetry reading at Trafalmadore Cafe. And an excursion across town through the “ethnic quartet” of the Lower West Side will take one to Johnny’s Renevous Bar where 10,000 combinations of organic liquid ingredients reportedly will quench any thirst. City sports m Sports inthe city are winning over increasing numbers of fans each year and this summer the courts are packed with tennis players and the streets are congested wifh bicyclists. One popular route takes riders north through the city on Niagara Falls Boulevard (preferably on some other road for as long as possible) past Route 290. Just beyond Ellicott Creek Park is another left turn off the Boulevard to. Ellicott Park Creek Island where tall maples and log cabin style pagodas provide picnicing privacy even when the crowds are out. Fishing is also suppoed to be fair. And of course no discussion of urban sports should omit mention of frisbee, which jeapordizes parks, lawns and streets throughout Buffalo. Other park activities Include a Shakespearean drama on the hill overlooking Delaware Park pond. Nearby, in the albright Knox Art Gallery, strains of unusual musical fcompositions called “Evenings for New Music” could be heard. One piece by Yannis Xenakis contained six percussionists, surrounding the audience in different locations around the room, who produced the musical effect of city streets with cars rushing by and sirens blaring. With summer orientation here comes a variety of things to do pn campus including medieval sports games on the fourth of July, folk and blues coffeehouses, unlimited films often with screenings and discussions by the artists, and folk and square dancing. ... . • • . • • • • ... - TSUJIMOTO • • William Hinton to speak William Hinton, author of “Fanshen” and Chairman of the U.S.-China People’s Friendship Association will speak here on Thursday, August 5 at Acheson Hall, Room 70.

Composition Contributing .... To the Editor. In the last few weeks you have written and published much about the termination of Social Sciences College and my role in it. In the course of this brief letter, I cannot begin to respond in detail to the various assertions made and arguments offered in your pages. I wish only to suggest that there was no disagreement among any of the people reviewing Social Sciences College about the fact that Social Sciences College did not meet the letter or the spirit of the Prospectus and that the result of its policies was a program which was mediocre at best. The only disagreement among any of those reviewing the College was whether there was any hope for change in the future. 1 and many others, after extensive discussion, saw no prospect for meaningful change. No evidence has come forward since the President’s decision to indicate that that judgment was incorrect, and, indeed, further information from those who participated in the College as well as public statements by the graduate students in the College continue to confirm this judgment.

Editorial policy it determined by the Editor-in-Chief I am amused by the amount of power ascribed to me by some persons in the College and only wish that I had the authority to affect all presidential decisions in a way consistent with the views of the conspiracy theorists. There would be many changes around here. Let me conclude by indicating that I view the chartering process as being quite constructive in the life of the Colleges. My role in it is to make the most considered judgment possible. I must make quality judgments and defend them as I do here and as I have done in my report on Tolstoy College and Social Sciences College. Your readers may wish to note, although they could not know this from your pages, that my criticism of Social Sciences College has been matched by my enthusiastic defense of Tolstoy College. The future of the Colleges demands that all those associated with innovation in this University be prepared to make judgments of quality. Without such judgments, the future of the whole system will be at risk. record of the Irving J. Spitzberg, Jr Dean of the Colleges Keep Jerry Frye To the Editor. Editor-in-Chief Arts Judgements of qualify Dr.-Jerry Frye, instructor in the course on Mass Communication and Political Campaigns in the Speech Communications department, will have, his contract expire fh August, 1977. I was very sad, as I think was the whole class, to hear that Professor Frye’s position was terminated. Without knowing exactly why the department wants him out, I must respond by saying that the department will lose one of its most dedicated professors unless its policies are changed. Finding courses that are beneficial to studying mass media at this University is difficult; therefore my decision to take Professor Frye’s course was a good one. The reason that I have come to feel so strongly for the course is that Frye is an excellent lecturer. He goes over all the material in a precise manner that brings out the relevance of the subject. Also, he takes the time to explain even the simplest things and will correct any student’s misunderstandings. You have to work hard in his class, but all the work is justified in, the sense that it is not “busy work” but work that brings the student closer to the actual reality of the subject. Another positive aspect of his class is that it demonstrates a sense of openness; Professor Frye is very considerate of students’ opinions. To explain the rationality behind this attitude, let me allude to the first day of class. When I first walk into a new class, I normally feel alienated. Often I feel foolish if I have to ask a question. As a result of this my gain in some classes has been limited. Its been three weeks since the beginning of this class and contrary to my original feelings, I feel no intimidation. I owe much of the class’s success to Professor Frye. I really think this man cares about his students and that is something I wouldn’t say of every professor here I have had. The results of his methods in teaching have been a happy, productive and very together class. I only hope that other students at the University have a chance to be taught so professionally. Dimitri Papadopoulos Page four The Spectrum . . Friday, 30 July 1976 �Stratford Importance ofBeing Ernest' Arts Editor The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde's masterpiece, a perfect piece of turn-of-the-century English satire, of which Wilde was the perverse master. The society it focuses on revolves around petty jealousies and deceptions and even less significant truths, but it transcends simple, albeit stunning,,triviality by virtue of a wit whose brilliance shines without the aid of much wisdom. The essential emotionlessness of Wilde's who make and break characters, engagements between the covers of diaries months before the unnecessary formality of actually meeting the errant fiance, leave babies in railway inadvertently station cloakrooms, and are perfectly capable of quitting the depths of lovelorn despair for the relative stability of bread-and-butter sandwiches at the softest rattle of a tea-tray, has long made the play a favorite of high school drama classes and amateur groups. But the production currently on view at the Stratford Festival, first mounted last summer by director Robin Phillips and revived this season with most of the same actors, proves once again the superiority of the Festival company and its guiding spirit. Wilde's plot is as convoluted as only a minor intrigue set up by people who have absolutely nothing better to do with their lives can be. John Worthing, young, country-squirish guardian to Cecily Cardew, invents a dissolute brother Ernest in order to be able to run off to London and be dissolute (always, of course, in poor Ernest's name) as often as he feels the need. His friend Algernon Moncrieff, on the other hand, has created an invalid friend named Bunbury, safely ensconced in the country, so that he can go Bunburying out of town whenever it becomes necessary to get away from his cousin Gwendolen Fairfax and her overbearing (to put it very, very mildly) mother, Lady Bracknell. Worthing poses as Ernest to court Gwendolen in town; Moncrieff assumes the same identity at the same moment to seek out and fall in love with Cecily in the and each, the men suddenly find country out, owes his immediate success to a sipgle disconcerting fact: both women are head over heels in love with the name Ernest. Its bearer hardly matters at all. — to jge, ack he 'ager less of toilette; the content, as bitter as his mother's mercenary motives. The elegantly polished surfaces come easily to the Festival actors (as to nearly any company with even a modicum of training and talent Wilde's characters are, after all, the collective personification of superficiality; hence, their great popularity among equally shallow performers). In fact, the relative ease with which these people can be gotten across with some degree of* after all, Wilde had done effectiveness makes really most of the work already more superlative productions perhaps difficult than usual and far more rare. The Stratford Company, however, has produced just that. — — - Wonderful cast The casting of William Hutt, one of its finest actors-, as the imperious Augusta Hutt Bracknell is a special masterstroke plays Lady Bracknell as broadly as the indeed, he/she towers over actor is tall everyone else onstage litBrally as well as and his slow-motion figuratively double-takes and hilariously horrible grimaces herald Bracknell's victory in every verbal scrimmage long before shft opens her tightly pinched month. Nicholas Pennell's Worthing is charmingly sincere, and Barry MacGregor's Moncrieff is as wonderfully devious, a suavely casual sophist who requires nothing more from life than a straight man and a sandwich. He and Marti Maraden, the sweet practicality of whose face and manner give the barest hint of a worldly sophistication more drastic than his own (the paper-bound engagement mentioned earlier was all hers) are a perfect pair. - — — Nice teeth Pat Galloway i* as adorably cruel as Gwendolen should be she is a fluffy little pet, but with fangs which she makes few but her twitchiness, attempts to conceal especially during the first act, is somewhat - of as i by Randi Schnur jn's — less than attractive; inexplicably, her mouth moves faster when she is quiet than it does when she speaks. The only minor disappointment among the cast is Amelia Hall, whose Miss Prism is a good deal too mousy; Wilde's Prism, of course, lacks the native wit and color of her employers (they wouldn't have it any other way), but in the context of Phillips' staging. Hall seems positively anemic. The deep browns and beiges of Daphne Dare's sets and Molly Harris Campbell's costumes set off Wilde's shimmering dialogue to perfection, just as the actors and director constantly play classically British restraint off against broad comedy, and with just as gorgeous an effect. No matter how many times you may have seen it performed already, the importance of this Earnest, which will run through September 12, makes it well worth the trip to Ontario. �OurWeekiy Reader Anna, by David Reed (New York, Basic Books, 1976). i Some years ago R.D. Laing and.others founded what they called the "anti-psychiatry," movement, which insisted that "ipsanity" and "mental illness" were terms defined by a society often blatant in its own madness. Rather'than viewing schizophrenia, for example, as a "mental illness" and treating it in the traditional' (usually ineffective) manner, the "anti-psychiatrists" held that a schizophrenic's perceptions of the world, while different, were still valid. It is only by treating these perceptions as valid and helping the patient think through them that she/he could return to the "normal" world. Mental institutions and traditional psychiatry have little, if any, place in Laingian therapy. The latest addition to the literature of radical psychiatry is Anna, written by "David Reed," the pseudonym of a British writer. He watched his wife "anna" go increasingly mad and finally die of self-inflicted bbrns. At the beginning of her madness, David decides that institutionalization is not the answer and resolves to keep Arina at home With loved ones to help Her work out her "mad" perceptions while showing her she is loved and needed. Reed's journal begins in the weeks leading up to Anna's initial breakdown. We learn she has been under therapy with a Laingian for several years, apparently trying to work through her problems: an overbearing mother who pushed her into marrying David rather than another man; the traumas from having grown up in wartime Germany; feelings of inferiority toward her husband, and even fear of him. The warning signs of the coming crisis were Anna's sudden preoccupation with writing reams of self-analytical letters, as well as an insistence she was pregnant because she had missed taking a single daily birth control pill. Thfen, at a London Underground (subway) station, "the dam burst" when Anna was convinced she and David were being followed, both by David's father and by the CIA. By the time David persuaded her to get on a bus for an unplanned visit to her therapist, she had worked herself into a — >■ frenzy. the Laingians and David over just how serious Anna's condition was. Laing himself comes to visit and to see Anna; he concludes that David is .overwrought and that she'll work out her problems in 9 month or two, given enough understanding. A "helper" insists to David that the family should strive to see the literal truth in her perceptions, even if they seem "insane." David disagrees; he feels that her family must provide a "normal" world that Anna can return to, whenever she is ready. In the end, Anna's problems are "solved" only by her death. For reasons she never explains, she sets fire to an automiblie (and herself), and dies several weeks later without ever regaining her "sanity." Whether Anna's case shows the bankruptcy of Laingian therapy, and of "anti-psychiatry" in general, is open to question. David never quite tells us what he thinks, although he drops inconclusive hints here and there. He refused to let the local mental hospital give her shock treatments, but now admits in retrospect that he, was "signing her death warrant." On the one hand he seems totally convinced of the worth of Laing's theories, to the extent that he cared for a clearly insane wife at involved, rather than home, despite committing her. On the other hand there is an underlying bitterness toward the Laingians that surfaces in many places. . Perhaps no therpay yet known would have allowed Anna to lead a normal, anxiety-free life, yet the circumstances of her death are precisely those mental institutions prevent; whatever else their failings, they at least keep gasoline and matches away from patients who have self-destructive tendencies. Had she been given conventional treatment, Anna might have lived long enough for therapy to work. We'll never know. Anna is a profoundly depressing book, as you might have guessed. David is a writer by profession and has painstakingly (and painfully) laid out in journal form the progress of Anna's final struggle with herself. Every portentous incicent is examined, as is David's continuous anguish and doubt over how to respond in a way most helpful to Anna, And it is a highly frustrating book, as well: Anna, David, and the Laingians all fail in the end. Anna is, nonetheless, highly recommended; perhaps it is even necessary reading for those interested in psychology, particularly radical psychology. David sincerely wanted to understand his wife's madness, as Laing himself counseled. But a warning unless you are a serious student of psychology, and madness, expect Anna to thoroughly ruin your day, if not your week.

Outside Inn Concert. Nils Lofgren is adequate, but not nearly spectacular by Jim Switala Spectrum Music Staff From his early days as a back-up musician for Neil Young and Crazy Horse to the recent release of his third solo album, Nils Lofgren has proven to be one of the most innovative rock musicians of the seventies. Last Thursday night it took him a seventy-minute set of electrifying punk-rock riffs to convince the greater-than-capacity crowd that his status is more than just heresay. He opened the set with the title cut of his most recent album. Cry Tough, which contains his best developed material to date and is the major factor in his new-found success. The song itself, now being pushed on the AM waves, is a perfect example of Lofgren format: a the well-balanced survey of Nils soft-but-stern vocals, conveniently punctuated midway through by a hard-driving, intricate jgtiitar solo. This was followed by another song off the same album entitled "It's Not A Crime." Again Nils is featured on vocals and guitar, but this time the tempo is a little faster; a more complex solo was interjected this time, and Nils is equal to the task, and lightning fast. Very impressive. Lofgren format By the third song the crowd was to their feet; hands clappin' and heads bobbin' while Nils played alternate phrases on piano and, guitar. It was a rhythmic, overpowering piece that seerried to compound the funky mood of the audience with every note Nils played on both instruments. The microphones died out during this song, just as they did on a number of others later, but this had no effect on the ever-increasing emotional ties between him and his fans. Nils could do no wrong. Only one problem existed at this point. It was all beginning to sound the same. What had once been the Lofgren format was now the Lofgren formula, providing Page six The Spectrum FRiday, 30 July 1976 . . too strong a constant throughout the majority of his material. Everything sounds the same? That's crazy! Even the drinks Sorry diehards, but it was evident that becoming quite evening. Sure he does a good job in juggling the variables, but ih the end it's all the same: Nils sings. Nils takes a solo. Nils sings again, end of the song. Why, Nils even ordered the same drinks for the band all night. This unidirectional attitude may very well be one Nils wishes to keep for awhile, but whether it is or not is irrelevant. The point is that Lofgren is not strong enough to carry the band all evening, nor does anyone want him to. Other than "Beggar's Day," (a song Nils wrote for Crazy Horse) and "Jailbait," (probably the best cut off the new album), everything else seemed to sound the same. So near yet so far And it's really too bad. It would compliment him so much more to have musicians he could work with better, trading solos; maybe some different vocals occasionally, etc. But as it stands right now, Lofgren is not god and even his expertise can get dull. One final point is also in need of discussion. I did not mean to say that Lofgren has neither been associated with quality musicians ndr had their assistance on his albums. The personnel on the Cry Tough album (namely Wornell Jones on bass and Ansley Dunbar on drums) along with the excellent production genius of Al Kooper are responsible for the tightness of the album.

The dazzle has worn away from its technique, and its references to the political assassinations of the '60's have lost their keenest edges. The fading of the accompanying flash has revealed a work whose strength, skill and conviction assure its ability to stand on its own, minus its value as a novelty. I expect The Serpent to endure, and the Commedia Repertory Company’s fine production at the Allentown Community Center is worth seeing because it boldly illuminates the production's strengths. Van Itallie's theme that our violent acts are our legacy from the — is an first sin in the Garden of Eden, and the murder of Abel accessible one, stated clearly; its clarity is, in fact, atypical for open theatre, but beneficially so. It's well served by being cast as a "ceremony;" the play uncoils with the power of a liturgy, with the creation, betrayal, and death stark simplicity of the timeless reduced to their essences. — — Mass Any production of The Serpent stands or falls on the strength of its cast, and the Commedia troupe, under Steven Porter's direction, more an an shows great ability and sensitivity as an ensemble ensemble, in fact, than as individuals. Their sympathy to the play, and to each other, is the source for many affecting moments. From a quasi-religious opening, we progress to a depiction of the J.F.K. assassination, punctuated with gunfire, repeating like an endlessly rereeling nightmare. The sin that this reflects is seen in the temptation of Eve, with all of the tnales in the cast forming a sinuous, serpentine tree; those same males are to declare the wrath of God, their bodies twisted into distorted, jagged postures. The link between modern man and these first forebearers is direct: neither the end nor the beginning." We have "I'm in the middle returned to the beginning, and are in the middle. Van Itallie can only infer what the end may be and wisely so. One additional comment: I was heartened by the "community" nature of the audience at the performance I attended. Far from being an expected clientele, fully half the audience was native West Siders, one of whom regaled us with an impromptu rendition of an Italian song. "I've never seen anything like that in Buffalo," was a friend's delighted reaction; no less gladdening than that spontaneity was the Center’s bringing many of the audience their first exposure to non-traditional theatre. — ..

RECORDS - # — . — " — . — Page eight The Spectrum . . Friday, 30 July 1976 Prodigal Sun �by R. Gilbert Special to The Spectrum “New Journalist” Hunter S. Thompson has gained fame and notoriety from his undeniably unique approach to political reporting. Thompson’s work has not always been “political.” He first reached some kind of recognition writing national articles and a book on the Hell’s Angels in the early sixties. His style at this point really bore no resemblance to his spiked and barbed words of today. Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas came like a king-hell bat out of the sixties drug scene, with its free-wheeling-and-constantlywrecked lifestyle. His writing had changed by this time. The continual use of perjorative and degenerate adjectives, and a keen story-telling mind made the tale an excellent book in the beat tradition, especially that of Neal Cassidy. But Neal didn’t spend his life holed up in a secluded corner of Colorado, or in suites atop the Washington Hilton, making his living with type and hype. This is a curcial difference, with a though the political reflection politics in Las Vegas lie most in its support of ruling class attitudes. Probably his most well-known work, it was written in 1969—70, and is the tale of his journey to Las Vegas primarily to cover a national D.A.’s conference on drug abuse. The narrative is “nobody does unbelievable but it has a things like that” distinct appeal. Hunter (Dr. Gonzo) and his attorney (a mammoth Saoan) are constantly doing the most abusive and scintillating of drugs while ripping off swank hotels and making fools of country cops, fat maids, Okies, and other straight “outback” rednecks. This is indeed incisive social commentary, conVeyed in a most original manner if an elitist derision of the lower classes, can be considered original. his liberal with squares that honest and any assumption rational candidate could unseat Nixon in ’72. Honest political differences Though severely handicapped with biases such as these, his writings' are also limited by 'the only restricted criticisms he does make. He dumps on Humphrey, and fellow hacks mercilessly, but only secondarily for their political stands. He emphasizes the dishonesty and closed personal approach that Nixon\ people’s movements that are the only real support for freedom. And so it is with Hunter. It is not the substance of the existing order that is at issue, rather the prinicple of honesty in what is essentially a “workable system.” Actually, Thompson has a lot in common with most politicians, not just liberals he never says what he’s for. He covers with for explicit support Acid, Amnesty and Abortion, but the substantive issues such as full employment, urban crises or the defense are never budget — hopelessly and unresponsive corrupt. What he does say implies that through some disgusting mischance or scheme (the Devil’s societies’ scum has risen to the surface to rule us all, and with God’s will, we can collectively skim it off to reveal the clean water of the American political system below. As he wrote: The Tragedy of all this is that George McGovern is one of the few men who’ve run for President of the United States in century this really who — ' ... Guest Opinion — — — — ' - amyl-mescaline-ether combinations. Some of his snottiness also seems to have ebbed in thinking and writing about the campaign he must have become more aware of the negative political content inherent in his northern-liberal disdain. Equating the lower uneducated and' unsophisticated masses with fascism and stupidity hardly — Flaws Ana what defines that which is most interesting in Hunter’s work, his writing style? It too has political content content manifest in a way of looking at the world a flawed method of negating the positive urge in us all to change that part,of our reality with which we are dissatisfied. This flaw is the cychicism that pervades his work. His implicit assumption that most of society is hopelessly reactionary, and his experience watching that “decent man” George McGovern, go down in flames, have combined of late to make him even more rambling, less to the point, and more cynical than ever before. In fact, Hunter is barely readable anymore, and that’s why. Thompson’s is the cynicism of a person hopelessly trapped in the restrictive confines of looking for change from within the system and having to make all the contradictions in our American capitalist society fit into the narrow framework of ruling class ideology and morality. Cynicism, totil and all-encompassing, can bring all apparent inconsistencies to heel, because one needn’t think about them. Consciously refuse to ponder a contradiction, and it is no longer necessary to act to resolve it. The system can accept this, is not threatened by even virulent criticism, so long as it is non-militant anti-militant or (insiStant the nothing need be done because nothing can be done). Hunter’s recent endorsement of Jimmy Carter demonstrates his complete collapse as a viable political commentator, but that viability never really existed. boils down to a Hunter counter-culture version of the New York Times critical (even outraged) at dishonest politics, but respectful of honest political differences never critical of the system, merely the Establishment. This has finally left Hunter with hack writing and pointless — — Mellowing The general thrust of this book, however, is perfectly in tune with the modern day of “democractic” notion freedom: freedom to be however, whatever, and wherever one wants to be. Too bad the maids, bellboys and rednecks Thompson constantly derides don’t exactly have that freedom, tied as they are into their faimlies and their place on the economic ladder. This plain, though undeclared, chauvinism is continued in Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail ’72, though not to such an extreme. This book is the sum of his writings for Rolling Stone as he followed the campaign trail of the 1972 presidential election from the New Hampshire primary to November election night. A couple of years has passed since Las Vegas and he was off “hard drugs” meaning, 1 assume, cocaine and high-powered blotter acid as well as such oddities as the incedible and adrenochrome was quite which Hunter impressed. Unbelievably, Hunter only repeats, with variations, that this speech was perhaps the finest he has heard. So fine was this speech that it is his major reason for supporting Carter. Hunter writes that Jimmy has yet, on the campaign trail ’76, to begin to equal the quality of that Spring ’75 Law Day Speech, and that in his personal interviews, they have differences. political severe Without telling us anything about Jimmy Carter politically, Hunter gives him unrestricted praise, mostly because he likes the man. As political journalism, this piece is worthless, but even as readable prose it has little to offer. His originality and humor are markedly absent or stale. It seems, however, only to be the a chain of final link in decaying progressively commentary that never had much substance. characterize the scum-encrusted Old Guard. Identical or more conservative political positions, dressed with “clean” up politicians, receive only muted criticism or, as in the cases of McGovern and Jimmy Carter, broad support. The operative phrase here is honest political “respecting differences.” This is the liberal principle which is the basis for such actions as the libertarian American Civil Liberties Union defense (ACLU) supplying lawyers for the KKK and Nazi Party. To the ACLU, it is the ephemeral principle ot freedom that is the issue, not the substance of fascism and racism. Defending the principle of freedom that is seen as on a higher plane than defending the broad democratic discussed. And nothing serious is ever said about ajiy left alternative, least of all socialism. No basis Of course, he implies that he is on the progressive side of these issues, but why won’t he come out and tell us? In taking few concrete stands, he can avoid substantive criticism by leaving us with nothing but his feelings to find flaws with. Hunter doesn’t come off as unclear and ill-defined as he is, however, the reason he can avoid specifics and re-route our reading of him is that he ties into all our discontents with the system without showing us the social or economic basis for them. He never probes into why the political is establishment in America understood what a fantastic monument to all the best instincts of the human race this country might have been, if we could have kept it out of the hands of greedy little hustlers like Richard Nixon. Simplistic Now that's simplistic analysis. of the reality The political-economic him escapes interconnection entirely. As such, he is necessarily reduced to thinking in terms of analyzing when personalities political movement. Hunter’s latest work is an article recently published in Rolling Stone detailing his “Leap of Faith” and liking for Jimmy Carter. The main body of the article deals with a speech given at a law school by Carter, with — — content. To end on a hopelessly liberal note, I have to say that 1 do like the man.

Executive, Vice President Albert Somit has been recommended to replace him as Acting President by Ketter and the Executive Committee of the College Council, and is awaiting approval from the Board of Trustees. The six month sabbatical was labeled “normal” by an administration spokesperson, and is a requirement of the five year review procedure mandated by the State University of New York (SUNY) Board of Trustees. In a letter announcing his sabbatical, Ketter said that normally he would have taken his leave last year after the review of his tenure in office. However, due to a number of unspecified “factors,” he explained, “it was preferred that the leave be delayed.” “Earlier this summer I asked the Chancellor to seek approval from the Board [Ernest Boyer] of Trustees for my taking the study leave this fall,” Ketter said. He added that Boyer will recommend approval.of this request at the first opportunity. under three Bloodmobile here today The Bloodmobile will be making its rounds at Blood this University once again on Friday, Jttly 30. in donations will be taken in the Fillmore Room students 9 3 All p.m. a.m. and Norton Hall between it doesn’t hurt as much as you are urged to give think. conditions, including: maintenance of his responsibility for the defense of the operating and capital budgets; periodic review of the status of construction at the Amherst and Main Street campuses; and his continued guidance of the University’s efforts. According to an Administration spokesperson, Somit’s appointment to Temporary President during Ketter’s absence, although recommended by Ketter and the Executive Committee of the College Council, will not become finalized until the Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees meets and discusses the matter on August 4. The recommendations have been forwarded to the Chancellor’s office, and will then be presented at the Executive Committee meeting. Rumors that Ketter would resign as President of this University after his study leave were termed “groundless and pure speculation” by an administration spokesperson. It was stressed that poor health was not a factor in Ketter’s decision to take his leave now, although he has had severe back troubles for the past few Not finalized yet graduation Ketter also said the College Council Executive months, which forced him to miss the • his a ceremonies. sabbatical, request for Committee supported — ... ‘ Alternative Communist parti; candidate by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor - 'Republicans and Democrats are not the only candidates running for the nation’s top two offices this November.

One place hot to look is the athletic Bubble on the Amherst campus: the $250,000 facility has been closed since May. There is apparently nothing wrong with it, but for unknown reasons the air-supported recreational facility has remained shut all summer. An individual connected with the Athletic Department indicated that the decision to close the Bubble may have been motivated by the increased summer heat. Another person suggested that the University could not afford to pay student monitors. However, fans are available, and money is continuously being spent on electricity to operate the generators that keep the structure inflated 24 hours a day. The enclosed bubble is 250 feet long, 120 feet wide, and fifty feet high. It contains four tennis courts, four basketball courts, a running track, three universal weight-lifting machines, a high jump bar and cushion, hurdles, equipment for volleyball and badminton, and showers and changing rooms. This spring the University baseball team practiced in the bubble when the weather was poor. Open to some? This summer, a reporter for The Spectrum observed several individuals using the facilities inside the bubble, after it was closed to the general University community, Executive Vice President Albert Somit has used the tennis courts, and apparently has access to keys to the facility. During the school year, the bubble was open to the University from 5 p.m. to 11 p.m. and was often overcrowded. The bubble was closed most of the day, except for a couple of gym classes, and was from 1 p.m. to 8 p.m. Clark gym is open only until open 7 p.m. this summer.

Pinkertons 403 Main St. Equal Opportunity Employer Sailor, Trouble (Epic) Trouble is an album that you can put up there with your Sparks, lOcc, Move, Abba and Hollies discs. Well, in all fairness, it really shouldn’t be right up there with them maybe a notch or two below, but certainly not as low as the Bay City Rollers or even Elton John. As you may have guessed. Sailor’s music is that bright, bubbly, exuberant, unabashed variety of pop the type that goes to number one in milliseconds on British charts and scarcely makes a murmur on this side of the Atlantic. If I had to make a comparison between them and another group, I would say their sound is closest to that of Sparks. The high energy and straight-ahead melodies are usually there; in fact, “Stop That Man” could almost be Sparks if they lowered their voices and did not rely so much on keyboards. However, Sailor is fairly original and quite distinct from other bands. There are several reasons why Trouble is not right up there with the pop “biggies.” One of them is a lack of'consistency. Good albums mostly have songs which are above average, and at most one or two which are inferior. Not so with Trouble. Three cuts: “Glass of Champagne,”' “Girls, Girls, Girls” and “Trouble in Hong Kong” are absolutely brilliant, both in conception and execution. (“Girls, Girls, Girls” is particularly noteworthy because of the way it, combines twenties and seventies pop styles.) Then there are several good pieces like “Coconut” and “Stop That Man” nothing really spectacular, but they do keep the album going. At the bottom are a couple of slow, boring cuts which tend to drag the album down. These variations in quality unfortunately give Trouble an uneven feeling. Most good pop songs rely on a fair amount of energy to succeed, while their lyrics usually depend on witty and/or intelligent themes. This is generally true of the material on Trouble, although it is far from the calibre of lOcc or early Sparks. Georg Kajanus, who wrote all of the songs and sings them as well, alternates between ballads and reflections on experiences with love. Regrettably, they are a bit too simplistic for the genre, and they are not helped at all by some of the rhyme schemes. Who would ever try to rhyme Panama with camera ? This review is beginning to sound rather negative, isn’t jt? It really shouldn’t, because this album’s defects (and it has enough of them) are not sa serious that they can’t be corrected. What Sailor has going for it is an ability for writing good melodies that do not require a lot of complicated instrumental work to keep them interesting. The group also has the talented production team of Jeffrey Lesser and Rupert Holmes, who give Trouble a full but uncluttered sound. Sailor is a band I’ll have to try to remember, because they show a great amount of promise. Provided they don’t grow tired of their style, it should be only a matter of tune and experience before we’ll be able to put them right up there with lOcc, Abba and all the rest. -Eugene Zielinski — — — Tracy Nelson, Time Is On My Side (MCA) Let it first be said that Tracy Nelson is a damn fine singer:, at the moment there Is no one who is significantly better at singing the gospel-XX rich, blues-tinged songs of the woman done wrong. Bonnie Raitt, for example, is more like poet Diane Wakoski, “dancing on the grave of a son-of-a-bitch,” more spirited (in every sense). When Tracy hurts, though, she feels it as deep as it goes, and she brings the feeling across with amazing power and intensity; if it wasn’t rock, I think I could get away with calling it poignant. Let it also be said that Tracy, after about a decade of trying in every conceivable situation, has yet to put out a record that takes her full measure. She’s done a couple of good albums with Mother Earth and a nice solo Bring Me Home and Tracy Nelson/Mother Earth effort, Poor Man ’4 Paradise. But even these were basically good half-records; all of her albums have had stretches where the songs were dull, the playing uninspired, and Tracy was either out of her depth, unconcerned, or both. The worst records simply had more of this than the others. The culprit is elusive; the obvious suspect is the producer, but even Bob Johnston, with Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel, and Leonard Cohen under his belt, couldn’t turn the trick. Neither does Jimmy Bowen here, though Time Is On My Side is far from the worst. If further proof of Tracy’s talent is needed, consider that none of the songs on this album is really that good. But they seem that good (some of them), solely because of what Tracy does with them, giving them more life than they can justly lay claim to. So why are the other songs so lackluster? (No tune ever had a more apt title than Let The Memory Fade.”) Tracy's range can't be faulted, either; when she dives into An Arm And A Leg,” with that soul-shattering wail, and “The Woman In Your Heart,” it satisfies as much as the spiritual aura of “Sudden Changes” and Jerry Ragovoy’s title song. But “Couldn’t Do Nothin’ Right” doesn’t work in its high-energy, quasi-disco arrangement. It’s much better suited to the low, burnt-out quality Jerry Walker gave it on hisIt’s A Good Night For Singing. because most of the songs that don’t fit into Tracy s Maybe strongest suit don’t succeed that the album has a sense of sameness to it. I don’t like having to say this; Tracy has the potential to turn out the best record of whatever year, so it’s all the more tragic that so little of her work is more than “above average.” A better, more consistent choice of songs would help. Sometimes, on Time Is On My Side, Tracy actually sounds bored; whether with the music per se or with what has been a decade of small victories and defeats, I don’t kno«. Whatever producer, writer, or session band wakes Tracy Nelson up will have earned our undying gratitude; Bill Maraschiello for now, she’s still a slumbering giant. campus on Winspear. $87.50+, Sept. 1, no pets, garage option.

The elimination of SUS has left the four SUNY Centers about $1 million short of the funds needed to grant tuition waivers to all eligible graduate students. In the past, financial aid for graduate students has been provided by SUS funds, the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) ( for in-state students only) and the tuition waiver pool. There are about 1800 graduate students here eligible for full or partial support. Earlier this mohth Graduate School Dean MacAllister Hull announced several steps the University would take to close the gap in tuition waiver funds. However, Union Graduate Students Employee (GSEU) President Howard Kling voiced strong objections this week to the measures announced by Hull, saying they would hurt students and blaming the University for not lobbying for the SUS funds. GSEU members also implied that the attempts to close the tuition waiver gap would fall short of their goal. Hull’s proposals basically aim at reducing the level of claims on the tuition waiver funds by requiring emancipated-" American-born students to declare New York State residency and by asking research assistants to reduce their summer enrollment “where it would not hurt them.” Reduced enrollment Hull said research assistants are being asked by their departments to reduce their summer enrollments because graduate students often complete their degrees with more than the required credit hours. If a PhD candidate registered for six credits of thesis guidance could reduce his enrollment tfl a single credit, this would reduce his students. If is not known how many could have availed foreign students themselves of the withheld $60,000. A spokesman in the Student Affairs office believed the number would be small, and claim on the tuition waiver pool, and may save up to $72,000 out of the $207,000 set aside for the summer session tuition waiver pool, according to Hull. Hull reported at a meeting earlier in July that five of the six departments with students who may be 'able to reduce their enrollments have already complied. He added that students should not be asked to reduce their enrollment in courses which , they really need. Hull suggested that out-of-state students file for in-state residency because in-state tuition is lower than out-of-state tuition and would reduce the claims on the tuition waiver pool, and because TAP money is available to in-state residents. Hull said that in-state residency is easily obtained, but added that each student must apply for TAP and have one year residency in order to obtain the TAP money. If all out-of-state students $Jid this, lull estimated $110,000 could be saved.Additionally, Hull cited as a possible source of funds for tuition waivers for $60,000 graduate foreign students remaining in the budget of the Foreign Student Tuition Waiver Program. The Foreign Student Financial Aid Committee, Of which Associate Graduate School Dean Andrew Holt is a member decided to withhold the $60,000 in case there was not enough money in the tuition waiver pool graduate and teaching foreign for assistants. Ordinarily, this money would be reserved for new, needy foreign students who apply to the University without the sponsorship of an overseas study program, or to open new categories of eligibility for aid. ■ However, there is still up to $16,000 available to new, non-sponsored foreign said the University’s primary committment was to those students already enrolled. GSEU criticisms Kling GSEU President said the to University’s stated committment covering the tuition waiver gap was similar to promises made earlier in the year by President Robert Ketter about SUS funds which his administration eventually failed to obtain. The State University decided not to make restoration of SUS a part of its supplemental budget request. At this University, the schools of Law and Pharmacy did receive SUS allocations; they were specifically permitted to lobby with the Division of the Budget by the Chancellor’s office, through which all lobbying in the State University must be cleared. The Division of the Budget has final say on what items are included in budgets submitted to the Legislature. Kling maintained that the SUS funds should never have been lost, and that the State University did not apply sufficient pressure to have them restored. Kling said Hull’s proposals wovtlcl. hurt foreign students immediately and other groups in the near future. He said the measures would set precedents which will lead to further cuts. He cited summer session credit deductions as an example, by determined calling policy it cost-accounting rather than educational considerations. He claimed the administration has in the past cut departments because of lowered credit hours, especially in the humanities and social sciences. Natural sciences, grad education emphasized RHHNtf OH THE by Nancy Ellett Campus Editor The for this prospectus Uiversity as put forth in the final Report on the Future of the University from the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, includes a trend toward graduate and professional education and an emphasis on the natural sciences. And before long students may be seeing a return to five-course a load and a tightening-up on grade inflation. The Commission said there should ideally be a balance between the humanities and science in order to provide a broadly based curriculum. But the natural sciences have been slated for the bulk of attention. The report recommends that past achievements in the basic and applied natural sciences and the post-baccalaureate programs combine, consistent with societal demands, to define the basis for the future development of the University. This mission will be based on a university model derived from the concept, with “land-grant” Continual concern for both public service and fundamental scholarship. This contrasts with other notions of universities, such as the Ivy League ideal of not self-generated reserach FUTURE OETHE UHI1/ER$EEV accountable to external demands. The reprecussions of the definition are great and place the university in a position of responsibility with regard to the needs and demands of society. The committee recommended a shift in the balance between undergraduate graduate and education to a 60:40 ratio. This will require a 5 percent increase in post-baccalaureate degrees awarded over present figures (with a corresponding decrease in Undergraduate numbers). When by reckoned credit hour enroUment, the margin of increase in the graduate population will be 14 percent. Certain operational improvements be are to considered in a period of study and discussion designed to evaluate the present four-course load. The current allegations of grade inflation should be studied through publication of grade distributions. The Report made suggestions for redirection of various academic areas, straying little from the interim report published in February. Chemistry and the applied natural sciences were singled out for commendation, with particular emphasis on clinical programs. The area of Educational Studies is slated for a reassessment of purposes. Regarding the humanities, which are referred to as basic to any ideal of comprehensive education, “societal demand does not currently suggest growth” in that area. While aware of the pitfalls of “career education” (for personal rather than societal goals Report concerns), the recommends modifications of traditional education in humanities, anthropology, history and foreign languages in the direction of opening new career options in order to be consistent with projected national trends in student interests. The Commission stressed an increasing concern with providing an education coincident with the needs of a complex technological society, calling for the “development of the professional as an organizer and manager of knowledge and resources.” In response to this ideal a liberal studies major was proposed for upper division students (junior and senior standing). It would be very selective and provide a rigorous integrated opportunity for “disciplined intellectual and creative self-development.” Several changes were proposed to move the departments toward centralization with some shared theme. One of these recommendations involved the formation of a department of languages and literature. Another planned localization of related departments would see the creation of a Department of American Cultures. This would locate the present departments of Black Studies, Puerto Rican Studies, American Studies, Native American Studies, Women’s Studies, Judiac Studies, Urban --continued on page 2— �Drop-In Center Erie County A major tax hike Harridan basement, oj *ers immediate The Drop-In Center, located in Room 67S The sfi iff consists of comiriunity. the University of to member counseling any to talk with volunteers-students, staff, and faculty who are trained So there is too much on your if listen. help with problems.

The announced tax hike and cutbacks, which he blamed on rising welfare costs, have already set off a storm of protests among public employee unions, citizen groups and legislators. In order to meet a projected $20.6 million deficit for 1976, the County has already allowed 740 positions to remain vacant and department heads have been directed to carry out most of the layoffs by September. The reductions would also affect a variety of independent contract agencies that receiye all or part of their funds from the County For example, the Mental Health Department, which subsidizes organizations for counseling, psychiatry anc crisis intervention, would cut its total grants from $7.5 million in this year’s budget to $5.8 million in 1977.

Carter characterized Mondale as having “a great feeling of understanding, comprehension and compassion.” Carter also said that Mondale had “the trust of a wide range of Democrats.” Questioned about his reasons for selecting the vice presidential candidate, Carter said that he had established only two criteria; general compatibility with Carter’s political philosophy; and the ability to step into the office of the presidency in case Carter should somehow become incapacitated. Carter said that political considerations played little or no role in the selection process and that he had downgraded the importance of polls which showed that Senators Edward Muskie and John Glenn ranked high in public favor. have an easy election in the fall,” but added bis usual statement that he doesn’t “intend to lose the election.” He also praised New York City for making the convention delegates feel at home.

As an example, the Aid to Dependent Children (ADC) program receives about fydf of its income from the federal government, and one fourth from the State.

Its budget last year was balanced expenditures, in the only by projecting a $40 million drop in government would and the federal improve economy would hope the increase its share. This did not occur, however. In 1975 and 1976 increasing numbers of persons exhausted their unemployment benefits and became eligible for welfare. At the same time several tax-paying industries, such as Western Electric, announced plans to leave the area. Although the Department of Social Services has received the biggest share of blame for the tax increase, its share of the total county budget has actually decreased from 50 percent in 1971 to 47.5 percent in Regan’s proposed budget. Report Affairs and the Center for Studies in American Culture around one focal point.

County employees are represented by several unions, some of which have recently opposed each other in representation elections. Union leaders have accused Regan of making irresponsible tax cuts in the three years preceding his re-election year in 1975, as well as committing the County to excessive long-term expense in subsidizing Rich Stadium and the Convention Center. Much protest has also centered on the issue of library cutbacks. The County Executive has publicly criticized librarians for allegedly pressuring patrons to sign petitions as they check out books. Librarians and their supporters, led by Legislator Susan Lubick (D., Buffalo) staged a march and rally in front of the Rath Building July 15, . protesting cuts. Some employee organizations have tentatively offered to give up part of their scheduled 8 percent increase next year in return for a cancellation of layoffs, but other union leaders have denied they will go along with this plan.

It is not learning. ” Creative thought When uncommon for a student who is questioned whether he having an academic problem to feel lost in this enormity, not knowing where to find the semester, answer. Each registration and course scheduling problems find a number of students angry, disillusioned and frustrated. Walter Kunz, who will become Acting Undergraduate Dean on August 1 upon the departure of Dean Charles Ebert (leaving on sabbatical), believes the major function of his office to be the place where the run-around ends. ‘The buck stops here,” he stressed in an interview Tuesday. Kunz said that there must be one or two offices on campus with enough knowledge and authority to be able to solve or help assist all academic problems on campus. He usually sees between 30 and 40 students a week. He sees the other functions of his job as directing the.Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE), seven which includes the and undergraduate faculties advisement, arid determining the curriculum and academic policy in conjunction with the Faculty Senate. He must also* ensure that academic standards are maintained and that modifications changes are and made for improveme’nts. Yet, he feels that the Acting Dean “has to be careful not to make any major changes in that role.” Problems are soluble As far as advisement and registration go, he says he would be willing and able to help most students, explaining that most academic problems are soluable. “Whenever you’re dealing with human beings, things can be very flexible,” yet he also says that he would never do anything at the of the University’s expense integrity. The University is a very large place, “by definition of a bureaucracy,” and Kunz feels that it may not be the place for some students, but for others he thinks the University offers unlimited possibilities, with programs that are excellent in the social sciences, humanities, and natural sciences. However, he also conceded that because of the size and nature of the University, it is possible for students to spend four years here and receive a poor education, and he emphasizes that We're the HOUSE Of BAMBOO” “ Roody?...

Yet the Graduate Record Exam’s (GRE) socres are lower, especially the parts dealing with vocabulary and writing abilities. Kunz, who was once a high School English teacher, says, “It distresses me somewhat that people could get a BA in this University without taking a course in English. He supports the idea of course and, in fact, wrote his own proposal for such a course right before the Faculty Senate drew up its draft. “What I want to do above everything else is to develop the individual’s power of creative and critical thought.” Kunz has held a clinical appointment in the health related sciences and feels that in regard to the relationship between himself and the students, there is not much difference between teaching and administrative work. He prefers working at the University to his high school career, explaining that as a high school teacher, his role had to be more of a disciplinarian. Concerning the high schools, he believes “we need a lot more reserach into learning theory, motivation, and the working of the mind; the subsequent mechanics grading and curricular approach will fall into place.” a mandatory writing Advisement Early Advisement was another big issue this summer that resulted in controversy between members of the Orientation staff, DUE, and the Student Association. While the concept of Early Advisement has its merits, Kunz said, “1 am aware that advisement is only one of the aspects of Orientation.” In this venture, Kunz said “we must all cooperate.” DUE difficult Advisement is made with the flexibility, complexity and number of course options, coupled with the fact that it is, of a voluntary nature. advisors do an excellent job, working within the constraints and there are few problems or criticisms,” he said.

He assistant to the Dean of Millard Fillmore College from 1965-68 1968, he went to and in Washington on an Office of fellowship.

Kunz does not believe that the demise of the College will hinder the other Colleges. “Each College has to rise and fall On its own merits.” However, he does feel that the Colleges will be hurt by the budget cuts, although he claims that the cuts have probably leveled off. .

Page three �EditPrial Market economy education Once stripped of its academic jargon, Committee Report on the Future of the University reveals an adequate but unenlightened prospectus. The basic ideals to which it pays lip service are praiseworthy, but unfortunately this philosophy is not translated into actual recommendations. Isspes which will have a profound impact upon students consolidation of departments and evaluation of grading procedures are muffled in vague and confusing language, while minor points are dramatized. What are the lofty goals to which the Commission subscribes? A comprehensive education is called for, balanced between the humanities and science. "The humanities without the sciences are incomplete; the sciences without the humanities are dangerous," they assert. The University must also respect the needs and demands of society, they say, without falling prey to the dangers of "career education." But once these ideals are stated, the Report recommends steps away from a liberal education, which lead in the reverse direction away from a concern with socially aware students, and toward a job-oriented education. Instead of a committment to improve the areas promising insights into social processes and cultural dynamics as its ideals would indicate, we see an emphasis on classical literature. If the Committee'S concern is to produce individdals with awareness of contemporary issues, the stress should be on anthropology, sociology, political science and history, areas in which they say student interest is waning. If a balanced education means equal parts of applied science and classics, then the Committee is missing the point. This attitude would be consistent, however, with recent admjnistrative decisions such as the dismissal of the Social Sciences College. After showing a keen awareness of all the pitfalls of educating students for specific occupations changes in the job market, difficulty in preparing for even entry level jobs, shortening of career ladders it concludes that "growth is limited by support and demand" and that society's negative view of a liberal education must be taken into account. In other words, let's do it anyway. This- reduces the commodity of education to.the principles of a market economy let us supply what society demands. Should the demands of society dictate the direction of scholarly interests? Should intellectual growth be determined by today's job market? One need only look around at the thousands of unemployed teachers in our society products of career speculation to answer these questions. The Committee's false concern with a liberal, well-balanced education is further revealed in its plans for an upper division undergraduate liberal arts program. It will admit an elite intellectual few who, in their first two years of education, have proven themselves fit?for this rigorous training. Apparently gone is the ideal of a liberal arts education for all.who desire it. The sensitivity of the Commission to internal political problems f between the administration and faculty is one area which is deserving of praise. Hopefully the higher echelons of the administration will heed their advice to improve communications with the rest of the university community and avoid confrontations, such as was recently witnessed in the resignation of a large segment of the School of Pharmacy. The content of this important document, which deserves the attention of every student concerned with the direction of education in this state, consists of ideals which somehow elude themselves when translated into a plan of action. A response is called for which will demand an education that inspires political awareness, social consciiousness and critical judgement in determining the future of pur :iety and quality of life in America. — — — — — — — — The Spectrum Vol. 27, No. 7 Friday, 23 July 1976 Editor-in-Chief — Richard Korman Managing Editor Laura Bartlett Managing Editor Fredda Cohen Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — — - — Arts • Bill Maraschiello .

Page four . The Spectrum Friday, 23 July 1976 . Throat-cutting . To the Editor I would like to comment on the letter to the editor titled “Good Intentions,” as written by Mr. Fritten, Mr. Riozko, and Mr. Wallace of Advisement, as itNappeared in the July 9 issue of The Spectrum. Clearw their attempts to justify their actions have not only failed, but rather have served only to add fuel to the battle they claim exists between their department and the Office of Student Affairs. Such a situation, they say, is “unfortpnate.” I think the word “ludicrous” says it better. If, as we are led to believe, these ipen are truly concerned with the welfare of incoming students, why do they allow this rivalry to continue? Obviously such a situation benefits no one, least of all the students. In fact, can these students honestly receive the proper and effective guidance they need and deserve if these two units are arguing amongst themselves? The answer is obvious. The main concern of the controversy questions the legitimacy of the “early advisement” sessions, and their effectiveness once completed. According to the | Division of Undergraduate Education, it had beeri proposed early last fall that the Advisement offer these early advisement sessions, a proposal, that was refused. Some individuals in Advisement paid np heed to this and went ahead with their plans, regardless of the possible effects of the program. Is this what is meant by “innovative” programming? Just how effective were these sessions? These gentlemen claim that our objections arose only after finding we had been left out of their brilliant success, and in effect were just plain jealous. Put your fears aside gentlemen, for this was not the case. I, for my part, was very upset to have found out only I found out after the what was occurring - alternatives and decide which one “looked” the best. But not for our objections would it have looked so good in August and September when 25% of those who did register found that their schedules failed to materialize due to some error in filling out their forms? The standard argument is thrown at us that orientation is voluntary anyway, so what’s the hassle? Let’s face reality, how many students really look upon it as being voluntary? The Freshman Orientation period is as much a necessity to new students as is academic advisement. There’s a lot to be discovered; so much to learn in but a few brief hours. Yes, academic, advisement is important, but plainly it is not all of orientation! Most students will see their advisors for no more than a half hour during this time, and that’s it. Even in your “special advisement” period, if the students were to return for normal orientation they would not see their regular advisor again, but rather the whole group would be assigned to one advisor. But freshman orientation means much more. Getting to know a little of the campus; being exposed to what university life is like; meeting new people. These are all important, and are equally as important. Advisement is important, but it’s not the center of the freshman experience. One must face reality, and in doing so will find there’s much more to the world then one’s own niche. I applaud any steps toward “innovative programming” advisement is certainly an area which needs such change. And I would be more than willing to help in setting up a more comprehensive orientation plan, I deplore, however, those programs carried out for the so-called “benefit” of the students, but in fact only benefit their programmers and do nothing of value for students. The early advisement program as carried out may have aided some, but I fear more will have come away having lost more than they could have ever possibly gained. Believe it or not gentlemen 1 care about my “peers,” and I don’t like this University’s habit of “screwing” students for “our own benefit.” I would be glad to discuss this situation with you, and I’m sure there are many others on campus who would be as interesteed as I in hearing what you have to say. So let’s stop cutting each other’s throats, and let’s get back to our jobs; which are to help my “peers,” your students, in - event! Yes, there were those who knew that freshmen were coming to visit for_a day, but never (as noted in Mr. Ferres’ letter of July 16) was it, stated that the students were to be registered, or given the materials to be sent in at a later date. Yes, it is a good idea for freshmen to come to this campus early so that they can get their thoughts together before their regular orientation period. Your department went beyond this, however, and promised instead an easy ticket to early registration, a proposed chance to get first class choice, and ultimately a way to get out of paying $35 for every way possible. orientation.

Let me reiterate that the entire Charter Committee was deeply disturbed by the College’s academic quality, or lack of it. Furthermore, a strong minority report recommended discontinuation of the College rather than a reliance once more upon the hope that the College might somehow strengthen programs. its This recommendation was endorsed with near unanimity by the responsible academic officers who were asked to review the Charter Committee’s recommendations. In regard to the second point of your letter, that of student representation on the Academic Cabinet, 1 believe you are aware that I have made a great effort to secure student viewpoints* in a variety of ways and on numerous important issues. Students have been and are represented on such University bodies as the Budget Committee, the Budget Criteria Committee, the Academic Planning Committee, the , U/B Council, major search committees, and the F.S.A. Additionally, I meet periodically and regularly with officers of the student associations. There is, then, ample opportunity under the present system for student opinion to be made known on any issue. I also should emphasize to' you that the Academic Cabinet was organized to provide me with the advice from a University-wide perspective rather than from the point-of-view of specific constituent groups. When I introduced your suggestion to the members this past Monday, they were unanimous in expressing the opinion that the Cabinet should not become a body of constituent representatives. I agree, for that clearly is not its purpose. When constituent-based advice is appropriate, individuals may be invited to appear at Cabinet meetings, as students have been in the past. As usual, I am happy to hear from you on such issues as these, and I look forward to our meetings this year.

Pointed parody The ten dancers who make up the Trock, as they call their company, are not hermaphrodites, but they do represent a breed nearly as rare. Since the great Vaslav Les Ballets Trockadera de Monte Carlo offers unusual technique to the world of dance Nijinsky was laughed off a Paris stage some fifty years ago for dancing en pointe (on the "points" of the toes, in positions and shoes traditionally restricted to women) no or had, other man has tried it in public — least, until Les Ballets Trockadero hit the New York dance scene two years ago. Today, classes which feature the Trock's style, merely unconventional to their new students but absolutely unthinkable even five years ago, are undergoing a sort of spontaneous generation process all over, and it may not be long before the Trock can stop paying custom prices for all those king-sized toe shoes. Dancing experience among members of Les Ballets Trockadero ranges from about ten years in classical ballet to a year begun with this company. All the dancers, though, regardless of practical background, had in common a frustration with the man's role in ballet, which is often limited if he'ts to supporting female stars, and really good performing a few solo leaps after he's put them down. at — — Juicy roles Thus, the Trock's repertoire (obviously in extreme reaction to their collective discontent) Is drawn primarily from among the biggest, most dramatically effective, juiciest female showcases there are: Swan Lake, The Dying Swan first danced by Pavlova, the abstract but emotion-packed so forth.

Against the flow Among the most interesting works unveiled for the Artpark audience were Go Jor Barocco (a three-part ensemble piece memorable for its chaotic daisy chains of dancers who knot themselves up in hopeless tangles while trying to pass smoothly through the arches of each others' arms, as Bach's music flows serenely, utterly imperturbably, around them.) and The Dance of Liberation of the American People the full title is about four times this long, and makes only about half as much sense in whTch Olga Plushinskaya dances Isadora Duncan dancing Betsy Ross, replete with Greek tunic and fluttering flag, to the roaring of Tchaikovsky's melodrama 1812 Overture. (Incidentally, each of the dancers has conjured up a full-fledged alter ego for performance purposes, with her biography printed in every program. "There's a lot of theatre involved," insist the Trock members; working within the company's structure is "like playing someone through someone else," as reacting in character to both choreographed movements and the occasional onstage faUx pas is an important part of the act.) With an international tour about to begin and eight performance "seasons" undertaken in only two years, Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo is becoming more and more visible in the most hitherto unlikely places. In fact, says dadcer/artistic director Peter Anastos, "We'jV almost not group underground performance an anymore." The troup's sudden popularity is as well-deserved as it is surprising; we can only hope that Artpark will give us another chance to fill the seats that were left empty last week. — — �Street theatre forBuffalo by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Arts Staff That'll Be the Day, on its first release in 1974, attracted most of the attention that went to it because of Ringo Starr's role. Besides its attraction for the fan of punk (David Essex has the lead role, and Keith Moon is also in the cast), Michael Wertham's film is the first half of a two-film portrayal of a working-class British boy who dreams of becoming a rock star. (The second film. Stardust, will be showing on campus next weekend.) That'll Be The Day is showing in the Norton Conference Theatre on Saturday at 8 p.m. and 10 p.m., and Sunday at 7 p.m. and 9 p.m., sponsored by the UUAB Film Committee. The streets of Buffalo won't be the same this summer. If they are the same, they'll be the same as the streets of New York City because they'll have street theatre. A tradition in some large cities, street theatre has been a rarity in Buffalo. SUNYAB's Department of Theatre hopes to make it a regular attraction for Buffalonians as well. Programmed by department Chairman Saul Elkin, as part of the Summer Theatre schedule, it will serve not only as a cultural entertainment treat for the community, but also as an apprenticeship for undergraduates and graduates in the department. Entitled The Buffalo Play, under the direction of Ed Smith, the production features not only faculty and graduates, but undergraduates and high school students as well. The program stems from the students themselves, all of various backgrounds, who express their individual viewpoints on Buffalo and other large cities, and the issues surrounding them. Jeff Brooks, studying here on a writing fellowship, wrote most of the script, admitting that he "basically just listened to discussions and put it in a coherent dramatic form." The cohesiveness is centered on "The Spirit of Buffalo," played by Tommy Koenig, a SUNYAB graduate now with the BBC project in New York City, who. guides the audience through the scenes of Buffalo life. "willing to work." The play is of a physical nature that puts heavy themes in a satirical light. Smith used the words "fun" and "funny" in his description of The Buffalo Play. The cast reflects a fantastically wide range of social and ethnic viewpoints. It is composed of undergraduates Irene Burns Normandale, Evan Parry, Monique Mojica, June Duell, June Guralnick, Chris A. Milhouse, Lorelle Chizen, Terry Williams, Millie Prezioso, Cindy Williams, and Mark Donahue. High school students from a theatre apprenticeship program co-ordinated by their schools and the Theatre Department have roles in both the Summer Shakespeare program and the street theatre program. Several high school students from the New York State Division for Youth, currently involved in a theatre in-class training program, were also selected to act in The Buffalo Play. A flat-bed truck with two side platforms will be used as a stage, making this a theatre-in-the-round experience. Before taking their show to various sites in the community, the students will be performing on campus July 26, 27 and 28 at 7 p.m. Downtown performances are also planned, including an August 6 date outside of Shea's Buffalo Theatre. The performances will run afternoons and evenings from July 26 to August 15. - Real life "The scenes," Smith explained, "deal with unemployment, welfare, 'the Avenue' (Chippewa Street), and heavy themes to show why people are in these situations and why they are they way that they are."

Still, this is less bothersome than it might be in a different kind of play, since Eve is not really about a relationship but rather about a single figure. All the other characters relatively are unimportant. And the structure of the play does demand that Eva be left alone at the end. The set by John Ferguson represents Eva's basement apartment. This is a small revolving stage at the back, where the figures from her memory appear, and two garbage cans on either side, representing the alleys where she scrounges for throw-aways. This stage effectively conveys a sense of her isolation and confinement (she describes both her former home and her present one as prisons). Because no other place for her to live is visualized, and because this place seems to exist in a void, we get a powerful impression of how trapped she is. She has nowhere to turn. The play runs through August 28 at the Avon Theatre in downtown Stratford. Prodigal Sun �Our Weekly Reader The 400 Eels of Sigmund Freud, A.G. Mojtabai (Sirtion & Schuster, $7.95) When a'n ex-salesman named Valparosi visits Richard Henken, the librarian, carrying a jar full of ashes and tells him that is all that is left of a novel he has written, Henken has very little patience for the man. The book, Valparosi says, was his only reason for living. (His wife had already left him.) After eight rejection slips he burned it. He tells Henken that he would like the library to have the remains of his novel. This, of course, isn't the main reason for his trip to the library. He is a man alone in the world looking for another person with whom to share a cup of coffee. He is grasping for a measure of compassion. However, a measure is more than Henken can afford. He, after all, is a busy man. Henken realizes his own callousness, and knows he can spare a moment but doesn't. This is the only affecting scene in A.G. Mojtabai's first novel, Mundome, and Valparosi is the only character who moved me. Mundome is a simple tale simply told about a man, Henken, and his mentally disturbed sister, Meg. (Valparosi is just an auxiliary character.) The relationship, or non-relationship, between the two defined, principles is well although little warmth is felt by the reader" who , reamins, throughout, a disinterested third party< The language, however, is often haunting and sometimes beautiful. The pure idelicacy of the prose was something unique to me. That, combined with the brutal reality the novel depicts, made for a startling contrast. Mojtabai's second novel. The 400 Eels of Sigmund Freud, deals with a group of high school students engaged in scientific research in an isolated mansion called the Four Winds. The students have been chosen for this summer project for their academic excellence and are America's future scientific leaders. Obviously these "leaders" are going to have problems in coping with life's normal situations and Ms. Mojtabai this very well. Naomi'S initiation into what she considers to be sex represents the graceful awkwardness of such a beginning more honestly than a similar scene in The Summer of '42 . The innocence and ignorance of the students is played off against the frustrations and world-weariness of their teachers and adult supervisors. When Aunt Ethel, the wife of the scientist who is running the project, insists that the students clean up the house thoroughly at the sacrifice of time spent in the lab, she doesn't off as a silly middle-aged, woman but as a person trying desperately to maintain a sense of self. She later says of her famous husband: "A big man, I made him big." She is proud of him but resents him at the same time because her own life has been stifled. Mojtabai's novels deal with people in trouble. Along with Valparosi, Henken, and Aunt Isaiah, the Ethel there is introverted student who is publicly reprimanded by Aunt Ethel for practicing his violin instead of doing his share of the household chores. Fate has not thrown obstacles in these people's paths, they have done it to each other. They are not cosmic victims but victims of their own imperfections. The language in this novel, as in the first, is its strongest point. It has improved in the sense that it is more varied. The texture of the prose (if prose can have texture) rangesVfrom a sinewy tautness to a sort ot tree-flowing, lilting verse. The sentences fall frequency. First there are limits on where and when he can play; finally, he is hot allowed to play inside the Four Winds at all. He is forced of the being out slowly mainstream, he is into one another and then one comes which jars the reader with its abruptness.

When William Rose, Stephen Vincent and / Were Young is only charming a kind of antiRagtime. (The title itself is an allusion to A.A. Milne's When We Were Very Young, which is thoroughly appropriate.) — For example, she describes a childhood summer in Gloucester: "So we sailed and had Ping-Pong games, all being the same age and delightfully inconsequent. How I hated to leave!" Laura Benet's book has a special, whimsical air because it is a childhood memoir that of three childhoods to be seen through the eyes of Laura, the oldest. It stops abruptly when Stephen, the youngest, turns twelve and commences his formal education. exact — — is something adults only through and understand When momentary reveries and acknowledges this fact: the stories, games objects, places, and people are all remembered as if in a pleasantly long .dream all "delightfully inconsequent." Childhood possess stable feature of everyday life exist now only in the imagination, the last real parents apparently having lived at the turn of the century. After that the breed seems to have died out with the War or at least seems to have been maimed and distorted in the burgeoning media; the funny papers, movies, books. But here Laura gives us back our mythical American parents (i.e., remembered parents) for a moment; there is no ambiguous wife or confused husband as in Ragtime, but only real and substantial adults who are so good and kind and intelligent we suspect they never existed, though we continue to wish they had. "We were never whipped," Laura relates, "not even when Willie went out driving with some of the boys [in a donkey cart] and ran over a farmer's turkey." If the Benet parents are. attractively unreal, some aspects of Laura's childhood in America’s Gilded Age are more real than real and point up the sometimes tragic differences between growing up then and now. We forget how tenuous a gift early life was and we forget how high mortality even those, like rates were for children the Benet's, who were ensconsed in the cozy upper-middle class. Willie and Laura both had dangerous cases of measles, whooping cough and scarlet fever; and Willie and Stephen, different times, nearly died of typhoid fever. (As an infant Stephen was saved only when his mother threw open a window at a critical moment and held him out in the winter air.) — — One recurrent element in this shared dream is Laura's memory of her parents, especially her father. He was a West Point graduate and career Army officer who had a gift for spontaneous doggerel verse, absurd stories, and other amusements: Another one he told us was about a green house we saw on one of our walks. “In that house," he said, “lives a cross-eyed daughter with an aged father. They subsist entirely on stale bread and peanuts. And they keep a parrot that sings out all day, 'You're another'." Parents as an attractive, respected and Prodigal Sun A natural, early familiarity with disease and sudden death manifested itself in curious ways, including a degree of fatalism not found in children today. Laura, for instance, remembers her first adolescent crush with a strange mixture of tenderness, romance, whimsy and dead calm: boy for me. But alas, Charlie died during the following winter and my romance was ended. " Similarly, Stephen was blase even as a very young child in a way which is now the perhaps lost to childhood experience sinde the first readers of Beatrix Potter have all grown up. — Mother, entering the nursery one morning, discovered an empty mousetrap and a dead mouse on the floor next to Stephen, who was holding a picture book. “What are you doing, dear child, with that AND IWEQE YOUNG dead mouse?" she asked. "Oh, it isn't dead at all. It's a dear little mouse," replied her offspring. "/ took it out of the trap this morning and read it a story." One of the most fascinating revelations about middle class childhood then, to this reviewer, was one which Laura Benet certainly did not calculate, but one which occurred quite naturally: a strange, literate formality of address between children. Willie whispers to Laura at one point about their pet bantam chickens: "Lollie, Cleopatra has disturbed Annie off her nest and she is swelling with rage." And while the Benet's are living in Buffalo for a time in 1895, Willie gets into trouble for writing a "legend" in the snow on the doorstep of a snooty neighbor. The offending graffito: "Funny doings." Such innocence the world and the English language will never know again. There is another feature of Laura's little mentioning; memoir worth the photographs family snapshots and portraits. More than the words Benet remembers and uses to remember, these pictures are distinct to that age and no streaked, other. Some of them are bad faded, folded, poorly composed but, if bad, they are always bad in a charming — — — “Thu bby / hoped would be my husband was Charlie Chase. met him but once, one day when / was passing a pleasant house facing the water.

Squinting, distant figures sit in unreal gardens on unreal furniture; pale children's faces stare out from under old hats, one face clear, the other blurred and featureless. There is a picture, too, which appears late in the book. It is small, almost incidental. "Father, Aurtt Margaret, and Mother (left) view the Pacific at Coronado Beach during a trip to San Diego," reads the cutline. They are standing with a crowd of derbied men and full-skirted women. The men are gazing at the sea spread-legged and imperious; the women look to the side, seemingly legless, solid as inverted cones. It is as if that age and those people E.L. Doctorow described in Ragtime suddenly existed, as if they were real and without irony: Women were stouter then. They visited the fleet carrying white parasols. Everyone wore white in summer. Tennis racquets were hefty and the racquet faces elliptical. There was a lot of sexual fainting. There were no Negroes. There were no immigrants. The glimpse this book gives us of the Benet's is as enchanting as it is private and incidental; but the real worth of When William Rose, Stephen Vincent and / Were of Young is what we see turn-of-the-century American society itself its public life as it is accidentally evoked.

The Spectrum . Friday, 23 July 1976 book, you used to read in you, pediatrician’, office when you were a kl What halts Derringer's substantive direction is his worship of a genre of rock I shall call "suicide music." It possesses a tempo with a temperament that, when joined with grief-stricken tact, emerges tasting of depression; in this way suicide music yields a satisfying empathetic experience on the listner's part Derringer fails dreadfully in this mode of music by obeying its heavy touch for almost every emotion cited on his record's lyrics. In asking for love in “Let Me In," giving love in "Yqu Can Have Me and feeling jealousy in "Envy," Derringer grovels in a musical exposition of suicide depression when there is little reason for such abject feeling. Hell, he may be a masochist for all I know. Again, tastes of well-fashioned contrivances of depression are some things to meditate upon, to think about, and to feel. The music of blues artists has legitimate finality to it and that finality is appropriately successful in the realm of lessons learned; intensity that expressly opposes the idea of blues is Derringer's idea of suicide music. Beginning with side two. Derringer becomes aware of where downtrodden feeling lies and moves to cut away ugly, overweight depression with a calmness that delicately mates to an even equilibrium of empathy. Depression bears and gives the key value of focused understanding. The listener is not bemused as familiar suppositions of despondency are presented well in "Comes a Woman"; Tve survived disasters Lived through all kinds of hell Kept my head when braver men Didn't do half as well. But / am losing faith in me And I am losing heart Cause comes a woman in my life I always fall apart. "Beyond the Universe" is unique in that Derringer's guitar solos are traded with the solos of Danny Johnson to produce what amounts to "dueling guitars." Johnson wins though, as Derringer's gun fingers seem a bit arthritic. There are many more guitar and drum solos and hard rock and depression that will possibly be better received when Derringer appears here live in concert tonight. I hope they are, but don't get, ah, depressed if they aren't.

In the June 25th issue of The Spectrum an article appeared which was largely the result of an interview with me concerning Ketter’s decision to terminate Social Sciences College. In the otherwise generally accurate account, there was one gross error which must be set straight. 1 am paraphrased as charging that “the Committee’s members were selected specifically for their bias against the College.” This is a remark that 1 never made, nor would make, since it is not completely true. The fact of the matter is, and this is undoubtedly the source of the mistake, that one member of the Committee was chosen despite his open and well-known antagonism to the College. At the time of his selection we fought against his inclusion, citing provisos in the governing “Reichert Prospectus” which suggest that, enemies of the Colleges not be placed on the Chartering Committees. Our efforts were obviously in yam since it served the desire of Faculty Senate Chairman George Hochfield to have at our evaluation. him No other members of the Committee were specifically objected to by Social Sciences College, and no others were so apparently biased. Yet we did have other objections to the way selection of the whole committee was carried out. In some sense the evaluation was weighted against" us by this procedure. First of all, there was significant underrepresentation of Black people and other minorities on the Committee. In f?ct, only one voting member of the Committee was black, and that person was a representative from the Colleges. Second, there was no faculty member on the Committee (with the possible exception of Chairperson Norman Solkoff) whe had sympathy for, or a general understanding of, Radical Political Economy, Marxism, or the type of social criticism and historical evaluation that forms a major part of the College’s curriculum. Third, the “Reichert Prospectus” calls for a mutual agreement between the Faculty Senate and the Colleges Council on the selection of Committee members. Yet the actual situation was one in which the Senate Executive •Committee gave the Council several name.s the Council objected that they were unsatisfactory and the Senate Executive responded that they were to be approved or else they would be forced on us: in other works, the composition of the Committee was forced on the Council The spsult was an increased possibility that there would in fact be a minority report, of the type that was finally issued, which Ketter could then exploit to his advantage. Yet the mere fact that Ketter, and seemed Spitzberg, so eager to. accept any as recommendation to abolish the College evidenced by their support for the “Minority Report” (written by Barbara Howell, and signed by Yoram Szekely and Daisie Radner) despite the fact that it is poorly written, intellectually shoddy,' unprofessional,' unscientific and unobjective reveals that the Committee was important only for the sake Of .appearances. It could be said that a stronger Committee may have made it more difficult for the Administration to eliminate the College. But, in the end, Ketter obviously didn’t even care about — — appearances. It is certainly becoming clearer that the decision to eliminate Social Sciences College had been made in the minds of Ketter, et. al, well before the constitution of the Committee. We were being set up for the operation at least a year ago. First, Spitzberg issued a series of memos to Dr. Stein complaining that he was unwilling to attend a lot of meetings, including extra “Old Boy” meetings. Second came Spitzberg’s sudden “interest” in out instructors’ qualifications at (the end of the Fall 1975 semester. From my understanding of the events that occurred during the review, coupled with a of Spitzberg’s memo to Ketter knowledge concerning our evaluation, it is clear to me that Spitzberg’s personal machinations were behind much of the final content of both the majority and minority reports. From his memo it can be seen that it is his opinions and statements that are being accepted by Ketter: positions which, one might wish to speculate, could have been worked out between them a while ago. At least, objectively speaking, the actions and statements of Ketter and Spitzberg are in accord with each other, whether it was an “accident” or not. Thus Spitzberg has placed himself in a league with the perpetual opponents of the Colleges system. This fact is either in obvious contradiction to his job, or is the very essence of it. Howard L.

Greg Tylinski - To the Editor After more than a decade of disarmament pacts that have allowed both the U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals to continue to grow, the two superpowers sat down last month and signed one of the most meaningless treaties in history. This latest treaty has betrayed their intention to “manage” the arms race, not to end it! On paper, the treaty limits peaceful tests to 150 kilotons, virtually no limit at all. Neither superpower has conducted or conetmplated a test of such incredible magnitude within memory. Furthermore, while no single blast is to exceed 150 kilotons, the treaty allows testing of a series of blasts totaling Also included are detailed 1,500 kilofons. specifications for on-site inspection, but the provisions are so restrictive there is little chance they will ever be used. These treaties create the illusion that our “enlightened” imperialists intend to make the world safe. However, the Socialist Labor Party points out, inherent in the rivalry between modern war economic systems that need markets* sources of raw materials, and spheres of influence to survive.. The U:S. and Soviet • Union’s (which is not socialist) systems are based on production for sale with a view to profit. Until they change to a system of production for human needs in which their respective working people receive the full* value of their product, we will continue to see economic war, the real basis of military war. �‘Measure for Measure’ Shakespeare in Stratford performances are superb The Luck) of Richard Monette is also as vital as it was in the original production.

The action comes about one week after the State Legislature failed to restore State teaching undergraduate Graduate stipends are a major in the University of request for Buffalo budget stipend “The situation 1,976-77. is serious for all SUNY University Centers” and the “stipend must be raised to competitive market levels,” the budget request states. objective (SUS) University Scholarship funds in the supplemental budget, thus decreasing the amount of financial aid available to graduate students. The two measures, which ate already enforced by the three other SUNY Centers, are aimed at closing the gap in available graduate student financial aid by requiring emancipated graduate their students to announce residency and by asking research students to reduce their summer enrollment where it would not hurt them. Graduate students often complete their degrees with more than the required number of credits. They are now being asked by their departments to reduce their summer enrollment to free some of the tuition waivers they now claim. 1800 There are currently graduate Students here eligible for full or partial support. In the past, this support has been provided through SUS funds, the Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) and tuition waivers. The State Legislature s failure to restore the SUS funds for all but law and pharmacy students effectively wiped out one source of graduate students financial aid, according to in programs. *-Santos Mac A Ulster Hull Graduate School Dean MacAllisfer Hull. Hull said that the elimination prompted of SUS funds of problems in expectations providing full support to graduate students. He stressed in an interview Monday that the State University did not intend to abandon graduate students, and that it was with working together the individual SUNY Centers to ensure adequate financial aid was provided to graduate students. , Financial aid and stipends for graduate students are increasingly a cause for concern at the four Waivers not enough The State Legislature reduced tuition waiver funds from $15 million to $10 million in 1973. Since then about $1 million has been restored, putting the current level at about $11 million. Hull said the cut in tuition waiver funds three years ago .was made because of charges that the program was granting waivers to ineligible students. But he added that these charges were never substantiated and that the University would have been glad to reveal its records of the program to public scrutiny. that the tuition itself has never had the capability, as a singe source, to fully cover the financial Hull said waiver program aid needs of graduate students. Stipends and tuition waivers students must be approved by the State Legislature for graduate in the same way the University’s operating budget is approved by the State University Board of Trustees. Veteran benefits are finally reapproved for the next year by Fredda Cohen Managing Editor three-quarter payment; 6-8 hours will yield half a payment; and under 6 hours will provide for tuition and fees. After a year of negotiations with the Office of Veterans Affairs at this University, the Veterans Administration in Washington, D.C. finally approved Wednesday this University’s application for veterans educational benefits for 1976-77. Earlier this year, VA began enforcing a 1966 regulation requiring colleges and universities to maintain records of the numbers of veterans attending the institution and to report within 30 days any changes in credit hours or addresses. However, the 3 to 4 week drop and add period here, and an additional wait of at least a week for class lists, made release of the information by the Office of Admissions and Records in the required time impossible. However, a compromise was worked out by Coordinator of Veterans Affairs Clarence Dye and the State approving agency, which is part of the State Education Department. Signed form As of September 1, veterans will be required to hand in a monthly signed form that declares the veteran is a registered student at this University and lists any changes in credits or addresses. This form, which the veteran will receive when he initially registers, must be submitted to the Office of Veterans Affairs on the tenth of every month, following a VA payment. For example, once a veteran receives his September payment, he must either mail in or bring in personally his signed form by October 10. Otherwise, he will not receive his payment for the following month. Accordingly, if a veteran enrolls for 12 contact hours a semester, he will receive the full $270-a-month payment; 9-11 hours will yield a While this compromise does not exactly fit into the plan designated by the VA in Washington, it is another type of 30 day plan which is acceptable to both the State approving agency and the VA. “We resolved our problem today,” Dye said in an interview Wednesday, commenting, “Like all things, it was a thing of aggravation for a year, and then there was a quick solution.” Renewed enforcement Because of the time problem caused by this University’s registration policy, the State approving agency had originally rejected this University’s application. The renewed enforcement of eligibility rules grows partly out of ongoing controversy concerning several million dollars in overpayments to ineligible veterans, and substantial cutbacks in VA’s budget. However, in spite of the fact that the veteran’s problems seem to be over, the VA is trying to enforce several new policies. The VA has modified its regulations to gain a greater say in what it considers “satisfactory progress” by a veteran towards a degree. Dye says the University will fight this policy, reasoning that “we [the University] should be the ones who are checking them.” Dye said that many schools were fighting this policy, including the entire State University of Colorado, and does not see this as a major problem. A more significant problem is that of veterans who have been signing up for courses, and then receiving X grades (unofficial resignations), instead of normal letter grades. Dye said that any student who received an X grade will have to return the money to the VA, admitting that he does foresee problems for individual students. Reactor shut-down is caused by water leak ■ * by Paul Dlugosz Spectrum Staff Writer The nuclear reactor on the Main Campus, repaired in January, has been shut down again following a detection.of another leak in its water system Although 2500 gallons escaped before the leak was repaired, spokesmen maintained there was no danger to the community or the environment from radioactivity in the water or loss of coolant in the reactor Martin Haas, Assistant Director of the Nuclear Science and Technology Facility, reported that the radioactivity of the water was only 12 percent of. the maximum radioactivity the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) allows to be pumped into municipal sewer systems. Dr. MacAllister Hull, Dean of the Graduate School, has been chief academic officer over the facility since July 1. He estimated that “almost all” of the 2500 gallons would have gone into the Buffalo sewage system, with the remainder sinking directly through the concrete floor beneath the facility. He maintained there was no chance of radioactivity adversely affecting the University’s water supply or ground water beneath the campus. Reactor to operate this week This facility has a “light water” reactor, which means it uses ordinary water, as opposed to “heavy water” a mixture of deuterium and oxygen used in “heavy water” reactors. The water serves as a coolant and also as a medium for slowing down nuetrons emitted by uranium atoms, which make up the “fuel” of the reactor. The water increases the possibility of uranium particles hitting each other and producing fission. Technicians at the facility were alerted to the leak when the volume of water declined. The accident was reported immediately, by phone and mail, to NRC and, according to the administration, an inspector from that agency gave formal approval to the University’s repair plans on July 8. It was expected the reactor would be started again this week, pending approval of the University’s Nuclear Safety Committee. The leak is in the same section of pipe as an earlier break-through in which 250 to 730 gallons per day were being lost from last September until January. The administration did not publicize the earlier leak until April, when a local television station broke the story. — Controversy over refueling cost The earlier leak, which resulted from “galvanized corrosion,” was located by means of a television camera and patched with an inflatable apparatus known as a “leak plugger” and a powerful resin applied by pressurized air. This time the repair job involved a similar procedure, except that the workers removed a ten foot section of pipe to get closer to the hole. i The pipe, wrapped in six feet of concrete and located under the reactor, is part of an elaborate system of pipes and a holding tank through which the facility’s water is continuously recirculated. The cost of this repair job was $4400. On July 11a small truck was seen parked next to the delivery entrance with hoses leading into the facility. On the side of the truck was written: “Cherne Inspection/Grout System Tough on Sewer Leaks.” The budget for the nuclear facility in 1975-76 included $149,000 in University funds and $135,000 in expenses which were reimbursed or offset by income from its services. There was a controversy earlier in the year over the projected cost of refueling the uranium core, scheduled for 1977. Figures between $680,000 and $900,000 were estimated by several sources. Hull insisted that previously quoted figures had only been rejected bids from different companies, and that a “firm commitment” had been made with a company to handle the refueling for $330,000. — —continued on page 2— �Peoples Power Coalition er Municipally owned could lessen utility costs by Eric Nussbaum Spectrum Staff Writer The Western New York branch of The People’s Power Coalition, a state-wide organization, is attempting to municipalize all gas and electric utilities ih the Western New York area. composed of Coalition, The representatives from various labor, consumer, and environmental groups, is questioning the priorities of power companies, such as Niagara Mohawk and National Fuel Gas. A fact sheet circulated in the Buffalo area claims that “the only purpose of the in- estor-owned utility is to make maximum guaranteed, profits for its investors. The sole purpose of a municipally owned’ system is to provide a public service for us.” The Coalition’s primary concern is to get the Buffalo Common Council to realize and the benefits of municipally owned gas currently being electric companies.

Massena, New York, is now in the process of going through Condemnation Court. Forty-five municipalities in New York State now distribute their own electrical power. Customers pay rates which are about 49 percent lower than customers of privately-owned utilities. For instance, customers of Niagara 250 for $11.60 Mohawk pay Akron, of customers while kilowatt-hours and New York Municipal pay $4.71 Municipal York of New Bath, customers pay $5.71. Residents of Bath pay $.18 for 100 cubic feet of gas, while customers of National Fuel Gas pay $.25.

Page three . �TRB Two way communication To the Editor. It amazes me that Mr. Frittoh, Mr. Risho, and Mr. Wallace can think that we are foolish enough to believe what they said in their recent letter concerning the matter of early registration. Firstly, we were told the decision to have an early advisement program was made by Mr. Grantham, not the Committee. This was well after it occurred. The Orientation staff was promised in numerous phone calls that no students would be registered. Foolishly they believed you. 700 students were Interestingly enough, registered, 25 percent of which had errors in their data forms. I wonder why? Secondly, advisement is only a small portion of orientation, program. Apparently there must be a the snobbish attitude on your behalf that advisement is the only matter of importance to freshmen. 1 am not fully sure if you\ realise it or not but this is a University, and there are a lot of areas other than Academic Advisement that are important to know about. This early registration program did nothing in the way of orienting people to the University. Are you trying to furfhelsdienate commuters? As far as the great significance of early or not, but I advisement. I’m not sure would tend to think that studelrte-felt they had an advantage of getting their courses sooner, and believe it or not this coulcThave been a strong motive for Last time the Democrats met in New York (1924) they took 103 ballots; this time they don’t need any. As the convention opens it looks like a crashing bore, like the one that renominated FDR in 1936 where they brought entertainer Eddie Dowling on to the platform to sing songs or Atlantic City in 1964 where incumbent Lyndon Johnson did tricks with the vice presidential mystery, even trotting out poor old Senator Tom Dodd of Connecticut before giving the imperial nod to Hubert. You can’t blame Jimmy Carter for using the vice presidential gimmick again; after all, what other suspense is there? The Founding Fathers invented the one-heartbeat-away office, the job of spare wheel whose importance is mortuarial. Just to keep you informed, one vice president was named Daniel D. Tompkins (with James Monroe) and somewhere along the line was Alexander Throttlebottom. Who will be the ? It’s nothing Daniel D. Tompkins for Jimmy to be stand-in for a to laugh about, of course king; the Warren Commission noted that “attempts have been made on the lives of one of every five presidents; one in everymine Presidents has been killed.” The other day a woman snapped a gun at Jerry Ford. Of the last eight Truman, presidents four have moved up Johnson, Nixon, Ford. So now the usual chatter is going on of elevating the vice presidency; of again promising to give him something to do besides wait. Pay no attention to it. It is always promised and never happens (look at Rocky). The jobs are incompatible. Kings and Crown Princes never get along. Presidential conventions can be great shows and you can generally count on the rowdy democrats to find something to fight about with each other if not the Republicans. On occasion the drama is tremendous: a state banner finally wigwags for recognition, and you know the great contest is over; or when the southern delegates walk out of the Democrats’ Philadelphia convention in 1948 over the civil rights plank; or when Sen. Everett M. Dirksen passionately attacks Gov. Dewey at the Chicago Ampitheater in 1952, shouting, “You led us down to defeat!” Old pros remember these - - — early registration. the Academic Advisement program Thirdly, here is far from efficient. You might be interested to know that in the past, many people thought the program was terrible once they got up here and realized that they could have done fine themselves. Some of them also found that the Advisors “screwed” their schedules up pretty badly. Let’s face it gentlemen, the advisement program here is far from infallible. If you dqn’t agree ask some of the people whose schedules were “screwed” up. Granted there are some excellent advisors, but the leadership can’t seem to enable everyone to get their acts — together. As far as the “flagrant lack of consideration for you informed Student Association as to what you were doing? NO-ONE. What the hell do you call it, consideration! We were also never informed about transfer orientation. How do you expect us to do something for people we don’t even know are here? •It truly bothers me that you gentlemen think that you are the only people on campus who can help the new students. You are not, by any means, that efficient. While I am also sure that some of your ideas for orientation are good, if you, the advisement people tried to communicate with other groups, you might find reasons why certain programs are not good for an overall orientation program. Please remember, communications are a two-way channel. Rivalry is a two-way game. If you look past your egos, you might also find that rivalries do not help students at all. students,” which one of >( — - The Spectrum - scenes The convention is the ad hoc body that for a few days every four years governs the party, writes a platform, nominates a candidate, listens to ritualistic oratory of a rich badness, and stages a ceremonial war dance down the aisles to show the world (and convince itself) that it is united.

It’s not fair to compare candidates of 1976 with 1960, least of all with Nixon, but the fact - remains that a great deal of uneasiness persists. Things have been almost too easy for Jimmy Carter.

More specifically, it takes a scathingly cynical look at one of the legends on which this country has been Jbuilt, and the somewhat shaky nature of its foundations. Wisely, director Robert Altman underplays the ramifications of the "Indian problem," the hostile arrowsfrom which shot William Cody to fame and fortune in the first place (a central theme of Arthur Kopit's play Indians, upon which the film was Martin Scorcese's initial jaunt down his cinematic "Mean Streets," ostensibly based but which neither Altman nor Who's That Knocking At My Door, is this weekend's UUAB Film co-writer Alan Rudolph had read so much as a line Committee feature in the Norton Conference Theatre, showing of before completing their shooting script), although Saturday and Sunday. they cannot, of course, be altogether ignored.

No matter whom Altman chooses to make, lately, he always seems to be a primary butt of his own joke, and that can be a dangerous strategy to follow; the more bitter and cynical the satire becomes, the harder it is to hold onto a viewpoint higher than mere parody, or to maintain any sense of perspective at all. Layered legends Altman is, of course, much too good at what he does to ever actually lose that perspective altogether; but this study of the making and unmaking of legends works oa so many levels at one time taking one and yfometimes ripping apart the Wild West itself, Buffalo Bill's over-inflated position within it, the very similar position of Paul Newman-as-superstar-as Buffalo Bill-as-superstar, the director's own role in the process of recreating the recreators of something that never really existed in that we often find ourselves trapped the first place somewhere between the layers, and nothing seems to be happening at all. Altman's vision of the Wild West Show (as metaphor for just about everything in our lives?) in all its vividly imagined detail does have tremendous on depth.

Prodigal Sun �Our Weekly Reader Homosexuality: Lesbians and Gay Men in Society, History, and Literature, Arno Press (54 vol. series) against taboo The homosexuality is being broken very slowly. State by state, the laws are slowly changing. In spite of this fact, the highest court in the land still sees fit to continue a long standing and illogical bigotry perpetrated by the demands of an outmoded mythic condition and the more subtle requirements of a rapidly disintegrating economic system. But there is aid and comfort for the long embattled minority appearing on every front. The freedom of the press guarantees that, no matter how much the pseudo-sancitified institutions against their own fight perceptions of this lifestyle, material of a positive nature can be printed and disseminated to the public, and ip particular, to gays. One of the most recent attempts to provide this positive reinforcement has been taken by Arno Press with the release of their new series. Homosexuality: Lesbians and Gay Men in Society, History and Literature. This series is for the most part made up of reprints of long or hard-to-obtain out-of-print materials. Several new works are included to round out the collection. For those of a scholarly bent one of the most useful books in the collection could be the Gay News Chronology, a series of abstracted articles from the New York Times. The period covered is from the Stonewall Riots of 1969—75. For research purposes this will be an invaluable aid and it is to be sincerely hoped that a companion book, updating the news, will be forthcoming in 1980. One of the most useful and difficult to obtain books that gays involved in the movement can use is The Gay Crusaders by Kay Tobin and Randy Wicker. this book is Although comparatively recent (1972), it has literally become a collectors item. It is a rare collection of interviews with leading members of the gay movement. The gay rights movement is undeniably political in nature. There can be no reform of the outmoded criminal code without a political basis and a large, vocal and highly visible support group. Size meaning numbers of votes always impresses those in seats ,of governmental power. To overlook the political implications of the movement is to bury one's head in the sand. The people interviewed in The Gay Crusaders are all political, both inside and outside of the movement. Del Martin and Phyllis Lyon for instance, are two women who have contributed much to the general gay movement. They were the guiding spirit and co-founders of the Daughters of Bilitis, one of the oldest lesbian organizations in Their the co u n try. disenchantment with the male dominated gay rights movement fueled by their determination to increase the importance of the lesbian and, by association, the women's movement. As the founders of The Ladder they greatly increased the scope of the lesbian cause by sending this newspaper around the country and thereby creating a focal point for the fledgling movement. A certain poingancy is felt in reading the interview with Jack Nichols and his lover, the late Lige Clarke. These two men furnished the movement with enthusiasm and excitemem. Together they wrote two "rooks that have become classics. Yet it is, strange that after the death of Lige Clarke", Jack Nichols published a book that in no way mentions the gay struggle in this country or his part in it. Other prominent people interviewed are Barbara Gittings, founder of the Task Force on Gay Liberation for> the American Association; Library Frank Kameny, one of the most effective leaders of the movement and the only voice in Washington for many years; Troy Perry, founder of the first gay church in this country, and many others. of the famous lesbians of the twenties and thirties. Along with her realistic interpretation of a series that could easily people be ranked with many famous male artists' works she has created a series of drawings that can only be described as thematic. Their quality and execution is equal to the work of Picasso. Altogether this fascinating set of artistic creations would be a worthwhile addition to any art collection and a prime focus for the gay movement or the women's — — movement. ***** — — To say that The Young and Evis is strictly a gay novel would be wrong. It is the story of a gay male in a particular setting, at a particular time in New York City. Charles Ford and Parker Tyler created this novel in the early artistic thirties. As an interpretation of what the authors saw in that period it is of great interest and serves as an interesting comparison with the more recent works. Although the style is different, the book becomes quite readable once you are used to its form. There exists in the mind of the general public the unfortunate stereotype of the gay artistic male, a stereotype true only in the same ratio of artistic males to the general male population. Those people, and gays, tend to overlook the fact that women can be artistic just as easily as men. Art knows no sexual boundaries. There are fifty-four books in the series from Arno Press. They cover materials from the early ninteenth century to the present. There are, however, a few minor drawbacks. The collection was obviously designed to be purchased by a library. Its $904 price tag puts it out of the range of the average student, faculty member, or impoverished) gay (usually organization. But this limitation is overcome by the fact that each volume may be purchased separately. Those interested can find out which books they really want and obtain them for prices similar to those most of us pay for textbooks. The second problem I ran across is harder to describe. Several of the books are printed in ''N French. This is a hardship to those of us who do not have the talent for learning foreign languages. It also appears that there are no English translations of these vblumes available. The collection, in spite of these minor hinderances, is excellent. There is no way to describe its existence other than to say thay it falls into an area that can loosely be described as "political." By printing this series Arno Press has reinforced the claim for legitimization gays have been crying for for centuries. By providing a source for general academic study it has added to the cause for legal changes and altitudinal changes with regards those people who choose a lifestyle which fits their own tight, personalities and not confining molds created by an uptight, fearful society and augmented by the structures of religio -economic passe institutions. All people should start asking their local librarians for books in the Homosexuality series just bring home two points; gays do exist and their lifestyles need more study to insure a better or German popular understanding. —A.

The Cult in my mostly magenta mind somehow became intimately associated with the lurid, third-rate horror flicks churned out by Roger Corman (Rich's dad) except BOC lacked the visuals. They don't make Roger Corman soundtracks flames requires a cogent and cunning game plan, not just an endless skien of riffs composed of eannumbing cacophony and plain old sensory overload. The Cult has reached Plato's ideal, Aristotle's golden mean and Todd Rundgren's Utopia by means of solid songwriting, clever instrumentation and clean production. The result is an aesthetically balanced aural ballet of power chording and melodies. The Cult shifts between lyrical interludes and demonic raunch with amazing acumen, pulling you into swirling rhythms that sway and quake like senuous snakes on leather leashes. Yet, I'm dealing in glowing generalities and any critic worth his mustard stained chinos zeroes in on the jewel-edged particulars. "This Ain't the Summer of Love" would bring Charles Manson to his knees. It's a 2:20 bone cruncher that has all the murky, perverse power of Lou Reed before he became a Neil Young groupie. "Don't Fear the Reaper" is a brilliant fragment of romantic necrophelia. The hypnotic, Siren-soaked guitars and the whispered and layered vocals recall the best of the Byrds and Mott. Romeo and Juliet are used as justification for the ultimate union in death. It's a tune that even the old beardecf bard himself would have liked. Finally, at least for the particulars, there is "The Reve.nge of Vera Gemini" and Patti Smith lends her vocal chords to this effort. She trades off vocal assignments with Cult's Albert Bouchard with interesting results. Patti portrays a seductive, ethereal woman who is asked to forsake "horses" to swim like a fish. Don’t ask me what it means, I'm still trying to figure out the Warren Commission Report. Patti co-wrote two songs and has been rumored to be the honey of Cult's bassist Allen Lanier.

The entertainer of the evening, Jerry Jeff Walker, is in the middle of a set. From a table in the ffont, he hears the rumBly growl of a the kind Utah Phillips would big, burly guy "five-foot-forty" as being describe "Hey, boy, do that song about the redneck." Now Jerry Jeff knows that "the song about the redneck" doesn't speak too highly of them; he knows that if he does it, the guy's likely-lo get so pissed that he'll beat the hell out of him. But if he doesn't do the song, the same thing'll probably happen. Well, fuck it. He does the song anyway. And he walks off stage, right into a roundhouse right from Mr. 5-40, who then reduces Jerry Jeff's guitar to splinters, and beerily stumbles out. It sounds like a harrowing story, but Walker smiles when he tells it, like someone describing a rueful event in the Old Home Town. That's exactly what it is, too. Walker's a folkie of long standing, writer of the legendary "Mr. Bojangles," holding his he "Couldn't Do Nothin'f Right," though he tried to own in the big time, but his heart belongs to the work things out ("Won t You Give Me One More corner saloons where he swilled oceans of beer, Chance"); about’hitching around, "just a high hobo learned to handle raucous drunks, and generally put in the breeze," heading for Texas but "settling for El in an arduous apprenticeship as what's been recently Paso" ("Head Full of Nothin' "). Finally, he shrugs all of his lost hopes off: "I guess an old five and dubbed an "outlaw singer." Look at the cover of It's A Good Night For dimer/ls all I intended to be." In time, he meets up with a lady who's willing Singin'. It's the same kind of scene I was in a couple of Saturday nights ago: some musical friends:and I to stay with him, despite his not being around for hauled ourselves into the back room of a West Side long ("Very Short Time"). In the local gin mills, he tavern, broke out our guitars, and went from Hank meets some of the folks. There's a wornout old Williams to Tom Paxton, to Loudon Wainwright, singer who keeps telling himself "Someday I'll Get fueled by several foamy pitchers. Although it's a Out Of These Bars," but who knows he'll never do studio record, Jerry Jeff's album has the same kind it. There's Stoney, another transient, traveling with an old concertina, a "gray pillowcase full of books of loose, friendly, one-in-the-morning mood. He's not writing much anymore; the only by Durrell," and a head full of old gospel songs. original song on the album, "Stony," is six years old. The "Dear John Letter Lounge" is missing one But he's developed a good nose for finding nice bar of its regulars tonight; he's given up the, "fly by night life" and gone home to his wife for good. But songs. The "bar song" pigeonhole shares a lot of space with the one marked "country;" what it leaves there's someone to take his place: his woman just out is the sticky sentiment and Bible Belt mentality ran out on him, and he keeps telling the bartender, the "Please don't play me no more heavies, Leroy/ I that the C&W available on, say, "Hee Haw" continually churns out. can't take them sad songs anymore .." hack, cliche country song Finally, the music starts; Jerry Jeff's singing Some people go to bars to forget their troubles; others, to look for something that can pass as love; about Saturday nights, and old five and dimers, and so much more gritty and real others, just to meet friends for a good time. Some Dear John letters even go to sing. For someone who lives on the road, than the slicked-back, squeaky-clean Big Nashville bars can mean all those things, but they're mostly product. He's been there; you can see it. He means the closest thing many of them know to home. what he sings, and the songs are good, and before Good Night is hardly a concept album, but long everyone's nodding their heads in time, and .a there's a great sense of progression in the songs.

The audience professional craved for more and I conceived it possible since a month ago he did four encores at New York's "The Bottom Line." But the house lights came on while scenes of his Harry Chapin-like stories rushed through my mind. After a very short time, (thanks to efficient roadies) the Jefferson Starship took the stage for what would prove to be a two-and-one-half hour music ("Extravaganza" extravaganza. the because the music was long word does not necessarily connote quality.) What was definite from the moment Starship launched into their first number ("Ride The Tiger") was that the group was out tp have a "good time." The last time that expression fit was last summer,' when the Stones appeared at Rich Stadium; their music was horrible but the crowd was jubilant because of sheer stage presence and the knowledge that Jagger was having a "good time." — Den mother A thought which poked its meandering way into my mind as Starship wailed "Hot Water" from Spitfire was that Grace Slick holds, controls and consoles the group like a mother from a conventional family or a leader in a liberal commune. She dances up to each Starship member to check that all is calm and sees that her children are safe from the stormy masses. Quite a change from Airplane-Woodstock days. Starship in orbit is not as musically tight as I had expected. It's not Paul Kantner's fault (as he harmonizes with his usual fine gloss), nor is it Craig Chaquico's adequate guitar; the rub comes with John Barbata's booming and tedious drums, replete with solos that sounds like high school band marches and last ten minutes. Also, Marty Balin sounds very thin and childishly hollow as he plays top-forty showman in a twenty-minute rendition of "Volunteers," by telling the audience to clap and sing at his whim. With a man like this • —continued from page 5 • — • around, Peter Frampton and his pretty boy crowpl control had better beware. Balm's voice in a live Setting is suited well, though, to sixties type rock 'n, roll (as witnessed in the songs "Cruisin'" and "Big 'City"). This is the appropriate time for wailing and departure from a tune's written notes, but deviations on such tunes as "Miracles" and its rehash, "With Your mistaken only serve purpose, as they sour mood. Grace Slick is in all ways perfect as she sipgs with the audience (even to me) and carries on with light comedic remarks to hold the act together. She talks about tongues in a sexual way as Chaquico's guitar licks a bluesy solo which turns into "White Rabbit," and finishes her tongue routine by adding lyrics to the song: "Remember what the doormouse said/ Give some head, give some head." consequent Love" nutshell It was a good concert but had Balin been less vocally delinquent Starship could have been great. Egotistic Critic Advice Dept : When my backstage pass failed to arrive at the Convention Center, I persevered to obtain one to no avail. My photographer had one and, being with him, one would think that a certain assinine stage manager would have used a bit of logic and let me pass.

Prodigal Sun �Editor’s note: The following Student Association statement was sent to President Robert Ketter. We at Student Association are appalled at your recent decision to discontinue the Charter of Social Science College. Although we were not surprised at cither the decision or the manner in which the decision was made, we urge you to re-evaluate it. The value of the majority report of the Chartering Committee was not truly"reflected in the final outcome. The major purpose of a majority report of any select committee on campus, is to come out with recommendations on its assigned topic, since they would be the most knowledgeable body on that topic after their deliberations. By choosing the minority report as well as relying heavily on your Academic Cabinet, you are by-passing the significance behind the majority report. Nowhere in the majority report did it recommend that the college be phased out. On the contrary,'the Chartering Committee strongly supported an extension of the Social Science College Charter. All of the members of the College Chartering Committee subject matter which the the importance of recognize constitutes the academic core of Social Sciences College. There is both a need and demand for other perspectives and orientations by which to describe and understand societal processes. However, where the three voting members who selected the option of revdcation and discontinuation felt that the College as presently constituted could not adequately implement its academic program, the six voting members opting for continuation of provisional approval were more optimistic. The majority report emphasizes the importance of the college. It states that its function is: To study social processes from a radical perspective and to develop models which may then be applied to current social problems. Their curriculum has been designed to provide an orientation to social and political theory currently underrepresented at the State University of New York at Buffalo. It then points out that in Social Science College At least theoretically an "ideal”learning environment may have been established. and Because of the relatively small class sizes, student input is strongly encouraged and informal, academic environment where for the most part dialogue replaces didacticism. One of the major reasons you have stated in making your decision was: Concern over the lack of, or at best uncertain qualifications of some of the instructors to teach courses assigned to them. The key word here is “some.” This does not imply most of the instructors, or even a majority of them, but just a few. It then goes on to say: - However, to the credit of many of the faculty participants in the College, considerable time is spent with students, in academic pursuits, outside of regularly scheduled class time. Again, let us emphasize that two-thirds of the committee supported the majority report. The minority report was written by only one person and supported by but one third of the overall committee. We make this assumption by noting that it was written in the first person singular, (i.e., my impression; / am not convinced.) The major contrast between this report and the majority report is that “Gut feelings and personal views play a major role as opposed to the majority report which bases its report on testimonies and facts. Did the author in fact write this report because she honestly felt her views were in the best interest of the University or was it merely a personal disagreement with the philosophy of the College? A report should evaluate its subject matter honestly, without bias. Clearly this was not the case in the minority report. We disagree with the comment that (she is); Not convinced that a need for this College does exist in the minds of the students. Following the suggestion by the Academic Planning Committee that Social Sciences be phased out, I noted no letters to The Spectrum from students of the College petitions Contrast that lack of response to that evoked by the phasing out of the undergraduate program in Social Welfare and the present uproar over the cutting of programs in Sociology, Social Welfare, etc. There have not even been letters of support for Social Sciences College, sent to the Committee or to the newspapers, by any of the other Colleges. On the contrary, many students were upset over the results of the Academic Planning Committee Report pertaining to Social Science College. As members of Student Association we receive a lot of input, undoubtedly more than Ms. Howell does, (keep in mind the Academic Planning Committee Report was released during election week, allowing thousands of*'students to give us their opinion.) Petitions were started, letters were written and signs of protest were conspicuous on campus. But alas Ms. Howell did ndt see them. Instead she just assumes that no one cared (or students were against the college’s existence). We guess if you do not want to find something, you just do not look. Just as upsetting as the decision, was the method in which it was done. When the Committee was formed students had only three representatives. However, one of the student members could not attend any of the meetings first semester, due to a conflict in her class schedule. It is important to note, that no other members had conflicts in their schedules. This coupled with the fact that Bertram Herbert did not join the Committee until second semester, left only one student on the Committee for the first semester. , Furthermore, after talking to one of the students on the Committee, we discovered that she was not getting regular (or proper) notice of the meetings. Often the notice would arrive days later or hours before the meeting was to be held. The student also felt she was misled with the secrecy behind the whole affair. She told us that it was implied by the Committee that the reports would be made public when they were sent to you. However, they were not. We at Student Association feel that the lack of public disclosure was a drastic mistake. The releasing of the report, as well as requests for input from the different constituent groups, was essential in arriving at a fair conclusion. But none of this was sought. It should be noted that Social Science College was not asked to respond to their “Accusor.” If the accusations were wrong, they should have been allowed to refute them. No student groups were asked for their input. After this decision does affect students. When we talked to all, Somit about both these points, he said he did not feel Dr. it was necessary to talk to anyone from Social Science College. As far as Student Association goes, we found out about the decision by mistake'. When we spoke to Dr. Somit, he said we could write a response to the reports (in which we still had not seen) and if we got it in by the next day, it may or may not be considered. We,felt it was implied that it would not, as our input seemed at most unwanted. But we wrote the response anyway. We assume it was read with “a grain of salt.” The only one who was aware and allowed to respond was Dr. Spitzberg. Dr. Spitzberg, who has always been on the record as being opposed to the College, backed the minority report. The College’s Council, however, voted 8-2-2 to back Social Science College. This, as well as other examples, brings up another point: How successful can the head of an academic branch be if there is a great deal of dissatisfaction in the units under him? This is something that should not be skimmed over lightly, but seriously considered. The final point we would like to raise is that of your The Academic Cabinet. By chief advisor on this issue a cross-section of the seeking to them not and turning University for input, you have limited your ability to view the entire issue. Therefore, on behalf of the Undergraduate Student Association, we would like to make the following — requests:: l)That students sit as regular members on your Academic Cabinet. This would be an important step in obtaining a wider range of input when you make your decision. 2. We are appealing the decision of Social Science College to you, as President of this University. Hopefully you will then actively seek input from all concerned parties and re-evaluate your decision and decision-making process. The college must not be convicted for “political” reasons alone; individual whims must not be the ultimate reason for its downfall or survival. The State University motto boldly declares “Let each become all he is capable of being,” and in this case its meaning stands out clearer than ever. Courses that challenge the norm, that teach both political and social theory and thought that might be contrary to this country’s challenge the student’s awareness of his environment, and can only be beneficial to both the individual and the community. Finally, there exist no other departments at this time that offer this type of curriculum and openness, and due to the severe cutbacks this university has suffered, there exists little hope for its development in the future. The student on this campus pays for the right to open education, and the Social Science College has shown that it can provide an able program, an awareness that diversifies it from the structured departments. Thank you for your time and co-operation. Steven Schwartz, President Studen t A ssociation Andrew Lalonde A cademic A ffairs Director Student Association Friday, 16 July 1976 The Spectrum . . Page nine �Seneca Indians see bright light in land deal negotiation by Nancy Ellett Campus Editor The Seneca Nation of Indians will see a construction project claim another piece of ther 25,000 acres of reservation land, but this time following negotiations with New York State which all parties consider fair, according to statements by representatives on both sides. The project will close a 16 mile gap in the Southern Tier Expressway (Route 17), running through the Allegany Reservation at Salamanca, New York, near the Pennsylvannia state line. The. pact was termed “historic” by William Hennessy, Executive Deputy Commissioner of Transportation, because for the first time in modern history Native Americans of New York State were treated as equals at the bargaining table. A federal often made meager reimbursements to the original inhabitants. ThiS"goes back to the early 19th century purchase by New York State of the land where Buffalo now It cost 48.5 cents an acre. Robert Hokg, President of the Seneca Nation, expressed" satisfaction over the agreement. He told the The York Times, “Times have changed. This is an excellent deal. We want to see the expressway completed because it will benefit everybody.” New York State Department of Transportation likewise found the pact agreeable.. Hennessy commented, ‘There has been no such agreement before. For the first time we had to reach an agreement without the right of emminent domain behind us.” court ruling removed the state’s normal power of emminent domain. The Seneca Nation will be giving the State an easement on but not title to 795 acres of reservation land for which they will receive an equivalent piece of land from Allegany State Park, nearly two million dollars to individual residents, and other considerations. The State will also purchase privately owned property to replenish state park land given to the Senecas and will make improvements on the park land. — — Proponents of the Native American cause claim that there was an attempt across the centuries to recapture their lands and return them to a taxable status. Edmund Wilson, in his book Apologies to the Iroquois, claims that studies showed the 1958 Kinzua Dam project, which inundated one third of the Allegany reservation land, to be a needless waste of money. Engineers hired by the nation to assess the proposal concluded that the dam would better achieve its purpose and cost two thirds the price if the river were diverted several miles to a large glacial Emminent domain overturned Negotiations for road construction usually begin with state condemnation of the land to be confiscated with a lair market value for the land named by the 1974 Supreme Court state.

This decision may mark a turn in U.S. Native attitude, toward government State was Until Hie recently Americans. assured of any property it wanted, and All parties satisfied THe Allegany Park Commission is reported to be in agreement with the deal.

'Way of the World combines wit and cruelty , — High style Millamant is not only witty; she is also the least cruel, and most attractive, of the play’s charaxters. Her comparative generosity arises not so much at from a moral indignatiop cruelty as from an aesthetic rejection of it. Millamant’s wit is emminently capable of artfully as she proves in attacking others her dialogue with Marwood in Act but she prefers, like III - - Mirabell, to cause no pain. Maggie Smith is particularly adept at conveying this aesthetic distaste for anything crude or unkind, arid -her performance throughout is a tour de force, an exhibition of high style which carries everything before it. by beautifully Alan -Scarfe, particularly the key scene of his dialogue with Marwood in Act 11. Although Fainall is a despicable character in many ways, we are meant to feel as much concern for his predicament in this scene as to feel for the play allows He sees through anyone. Marwood’s lies (she really is in love with Mirabell), but, conscious of his own moral lapses and desperate to keep her, succumbs to her demands. The emotional dynamics are very complex, here as throughout the play, and Scarfe succeeds admirably in walking the thin line between our sympathy and our contempt. His wit becomes more and more brittle as the play proceeds, and the desperation he exhibits in this scene hardens convincingly into a pompous and dictatorial cruelty. Jeremy Brett is excellent as Mirabell. His cleverness, charm, and consummate manners render quite comprehensible the powerful attraction most of the other characters feel for him. Even if Mr. Brett were no more than adequate, however, it would not matter. probably Congreve organizes things in such a way as to deflect serious moral criticism of Mirabell, of the sort we do direct against Fainall. Mirabell’s faults are never brought up to his face, or only in such ways that they can be dismissed. They are, so to speak, thrown outside the boundaries of the play. Comedy of cruelty Mirabell is, in his actions, the cruelest and most self-serving character in The Way of the As Fainall, Alan Scarfe is World. He has married off his nearly as perfect as she. His is the mistress, Mrs. Fainall (warmly most difficult of the male roles in played by Mia Anderson), to a the play, a much more demanding rogue (Fainall), in order to cover part than Mirabell, who only has up a suspected pregnancy. Not to be charming and clever. Fainall content with this escape and her begins the play on an equal compliance, he has held onto footing with Mirabell, as they joke control of her property, unwilling together about their respective to relinquish his material gains romantic and financial problems. even while he evades the moral In fact, since Fainall has delivered consequences of his actions.

Millamant is the first woman he has met who is as tough, and as ironically detached as he is. The picture of their future marriage conjured up in their great Act IV humorously and dialogue — played touchingly by Maggie Smith and Jeremy Brett is like a colder version of the relationship between Beatrice and Benedick in Much Ado Ahum Nothing. Mirabell and Millamant do love each other, but it is only the fact that they could never rely upon each other which will keep them together. Millamant says that as soon as things get settled, they become boring. In a world like this, one can only be alive to someone who does not finally know one whom one holds in — anticipation. Self-conscious society Finally, 1 would like to add a word about the play’s theatrical self-consciousness, which is prominent in the Stratford production. It manifests itself in: references to other plays; remarks, at various points, about the the Prologue and theater; (addressed to the Epilogue audience); and Witwould’s Pointedly low In a way, what this play is comment upon entering the last about is not taking anything act; “Hey day! What are you all gof together, like players at the end of the last act?” Self-reference in drama can have a variety of effects. In this case, it seems to me', 'Congreve is more immediate and making of specific his criticism Restoration society. It is not just the foibles of the aristocracy the gentlemen and ladies of ‘manners” which he is ironically reflecting. It is, more, particularly, that segment of Restoration Society which was attracted to cruel and witty plays, like this one. The standard satirist’s defense, presented in the and Epilogue, is Prologue congruent with this. It prevents censure by any members of the audience by charging that anyone who finds fault with it must have been hit by one of the play’s satiric darts. By the same token, the audience which came to look af and laugh at the theatrical conventions of Restoration comedy of manners is forced (or, permitted) to least, at contemplate the cruelty that lies behind that enjoyment. Congreve is saying, it seems to me, that the sensibility which relishes brilliant wit devoid of kindness is just as guilty as the mind that produces it or the characters-of-humors who embody it.

It is a play of brilliant wit and considerable cruelty, and both characterize the qualities production at the Stratford (Ontario) Shakespeare Festival, under the direction of Robin Phillips. It comes as near to being a definitive production of this play as we are likely to see. Maggie Smith is absolutely perfect for this sort of play and for the role of Millamant. Her arch, intelligent, fluttery- but completely self-possessed wit the quality she has displayed in Privdte Lives; The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie and in numerous seems to other performances ‘ have been created and developed specifically to play Restoration Comedy, and this character above all. It is a world of affectations; Millamant succeeds because she is a first-rate ironist who refuses to take anything seriously. Maggie Smith has so much style that she can permit us to enjoy fully Millamant’s frivolity without for a moment letting the character appear trivial. She, like Millamant, laughs at the roles she is playing while she plays them, and thus shares her enjoyment with us. makes false love to his former mistress's mother; Lady Wishfort, in order to have access to Millamant, her niece. And he only pursues Millamant in a which will ensure that he gets his hands on her money, too. Even as he joked with Fainall in the first scene, Mirabell was deceiving him, holding the trump card of his legal possession of Mrs' Fainall s property, which he produces at the end. If we knew all this at the start, our judgement of Mirabell’s actions might be very different. But, in fact, this is all presented in such a way that we do not condemn him. We identify with Mirabell, we come to look at the world of the play with him, rather than looking at him in the play. Congreve does not bring his faults into direct confrontation with his virtues, as he does Fainall’s and Lady Wishfort’s. We are not forced to confront our contrary reactions to Mirabell. His faults are there, however, and serve as a means of distancing us from the whole world of the play. Our potential ambivalence to him becomes an atmosphere or tone of ironic detachment that hovers over the entire play. Since we look at this world with him, our detachment from him is a detachment from ourselves, or from our own sympathies. In the cruelty and sparkling wit which are the way of this play’s world, the hero is the most graciously cruel and stylishly brilliant. then | Spectrum Arts Staff the Prologue, we might say that he initially claims more of our sympathies than does Mirabell. Certainly, he is as witty, and rather more genial, in the opening scene. Over the course of the play, Congreve gradually reduces him before our eyes to the grasping, clumsy, and nasty bitter, character he has become by the end. l by Michael Wing - STUDENT DISCOUNT On Repairs $ With I.D. 1375 Millersport Hwy.

THE OFFICE Is located In 355 Norton Hall, SUNY/Buffalo, 3436 Main Street, Buffalo, New York 14214. > The SUNYAB Department of Theatre is producing a summer theater program which will begin next Thursday with a production of William Shakespeare’s The Winter’s Tale in Delaware Park. The stage is being constructed near the casino on the lake using the sloping grass behind the rose garden as the seating for the audience. The play will be offered free of charge to students and the community. Funding for the program has come from Summer Session fund, a grant from the Dean of Graduate Studies, endowment funds from the Center for Theatre Research, and a donation from the Student Association. Dr. Saul Elkin, chairman of the Theatre Department, conceived the program wTlJ? strong feelings about offering it as “a gift towards the betterment of the cultural and spiritual life” of the Buffalo community. He hopes to make it a regular attraction modeling it after the summer Shakespeare Festival in New York City’s Central Park. An amphitheatre in the park is part of. his plan for a place where people can see the “great plays” without having to go to the City. Elkin has another, stronger motivation for producing the program: to give students in the Theatre Department here an opportunity to work in a “non-academic environment in which their time is not divided between plays and classes.” Here they could apprentice in a professional .environment something that'-is'very rare in this area\ THE RATE for classified ads is $1.40 for the first 10 words, 5 cents each additional word.

Theresa DePaolo, who is studying here on a Theatre Department fellowship, and John Emmert and Kneland Stickles, both undergraduates in the Department, had lead roles in Love's Labour’s Lost as well ias in The Winter's Tale. Dr. Elkin, who is directing the play, describes it as one that “combines great tragic overtones, low and farcical comedy, and romantic and lyrical poetic strains It is as though Shakespeare dipped back into his catalogue of styles that he’d used over his career and did a little of each.” A comic touch is added by the Old Shepherd and his son, Clown, played by Greg Maday, head of the Drama Department at Mount Saint Joseph’s High School, and Charlie Wisnet, an admitted disciple of Maday’s who has appeared in a number of his productions, most recently Showboat at “The '. Mount.” Time, one of the aforementioned themes in the play, is also a character who'serves as the narrative chorus. Time’s passage is also reflected in the seasonal colors of the costumes and scenery. The play begins with winter colors of white and gray, then goes into the greens and blues of spring, and finally borwns and ambers of autumn.

Shakespeare also uses The Winter’s Tale to explore the relationship between generations. In this play younger people educate their parents about interpersonal values. The cast is a combination of students and former students, with one exception. Jerry Finnegan, who plays the lead role, is, in Elkin’s words, “really a find.” He has extensive professional experience, including the New York Shakespeare Festival and the Stratford, Connecticut Festival. He has studied under the former head of England’s Royal Academy of the Dramatic Arts. Finnegan plays Leontes, King of Sicilia, a man who becomes insanely suspicious and jealous of the relationship between his wife Hermione and his best friend Polixenes, although in fact they are innocent in thought and deed.

SASU President Frank Jackalone termed the legislation “a great stride toward a truly open and democractic public University.” The other bill ensures the rights of student representatives on the SUNY Board of Trustees and each institution’s College Council to make and second motions and place ideas on the agenda, thus granting them all the privileges of the voting members. SASU Legislative Director termed the passage of the bills “progressive,” and was especially pleased because New York was the only remaining state which did not have this kind of legislation. Jackalone said it is unfortunate that the Trustees had to be “forced” to “responsibly appear before . the University constituents whom they most affect.” “The fact of the matter is that the Trustees have refused to appear before a public gathering to solicit impact into the direction and focus of the University,” he said. “The Trustees stand in direct contradiction of their City University counterparts, the Board of Higher Education, which has voluntarily opened its formal meetings.” . .

Berlin admitted he did not list three former jobs, explaining that they were of such short duration that an employer would have little basis for an accurate judgement. One union member said that it is common practice to leave out such jobs when filling out applications and is usually not questioned. Contributing Editor The firing of a local union newspaper editor has led to charges of “unjustified attack” by members of the union, Local 1183 of the United Steelworkers of America (USWA). Jim Berlin, the editor of the paper, was fired the T.R.W. by Company, J.H. industrial tool an producer, last April 14. The local union went into arbitration with the Company last Friday to regain Berlin’s job, although a decision is not expected for at least a month. Former union President, Irving and elected newly Bryant, Presidents Sam Triggs, issued a joint statement several weeks ago claiming the firing was an a on “all of labor” which mu “confronted by a united labor Williams, movement.” A spokesperson from the Public Relations Office of J.H. Williams declined to comment on the issue. ‘Falsified application’ According to union officials, Berlin was dismissed from the company because he “falsified his The t.R.W. Company positively evaluated Berlin’s wofk during his two and a half year stay maintained with the union officials. Rank-and-file The Steelworkers District 4 < Rank and File Committee charged in the May issue of its newsletter, fTY, that J.H. Williams fired lin, a leader in the committee, to “Influence the elections of Local 1183” and “to halt the growing unity in the shop.” Over half of the 1183 Rank and File candidates were Committee elected to union office on a militant program calling for job security, an end to discrimination, Unproved health and safety, political action, trade union education, full union democracy and full representation on the AFL-ClO council. Trigge, current President of Local 1183, is Co-chairman of the 4 District Rank and File Committee, which includes steelworkers from. Bethlehem Republic, Anaconda, Dresser and other Western New York area steel plants. The District 4 Rank and File Committee, a leading force in the nationwide rank and file movement to end the no-strike agreement in the present contract for basic. , ste'e< This movement is also fighting for black-white, leadership in USWA. ‘Labor Committee’ interference On April 9, Berlin was sent home from work for allegedly spending too much time in the locker room. The company claims he was there for 45 minutes, while other workers say it was only three or four minutes. Berlin filed a grievance. Two days latet, the company told Berlin he was fired for falsifying his application. The following day it withdrew the disciplinary action for his break and paid him for his lost time. UNITY explains that the company “made It known that they would not allow him to be a teller in the union elections” which were to be held In the plant cafeteria, but would allow him to vote* A spokesperson for the company maintains Berlin was “not stopped” from being a teller, but would not say if he preformed this task. Berlin insists that he was not permitted to be a teller. UNITY reported that the company’s charges of falsification of the job application were based upon an “anonymous” phone call received immediately after the “Labor Committee” handed out more'literature at the plant which carried wild accusations against Then, Berlin. to according UNITY just three days before the “Labor union election, the Committee” came to the plant gates again with literature which , revealed a bomb was to go off in the cafeteria during the local elections. ‘Fradulent discharge' The elections went on anyway, UNITY asked, “Does the “company call them (the “Labor Committee”! in when they need a “hit man” against workers who stand up for the men and women in the shop?” Berlin said, “The company has gone all out to keep me out of the plant.” When asked whether this is a personal attack against him, Berlin replied, “No. Any union member who fights for his rijhts or the rights of others could also come under attack from the company. Every man and woman in the shop knows this Is a fradulent discharge,” Berlin said, —continued on page 2— Library needs tops in budget m Scholastic Housing is Santos closed by Sub Board by Steve Greune Staff Writer Spectrum Poor organization by the directors of Scholastic Housing, tnc. has been the major factor which led to the demise of the experimental off-campUs cooperative, according to members of Sub Board I. Scholastic Housing is a division of Sub Board, which distributes about $300,000 in student activity fees. Sub Board is comprised of representatives of the six student governments. Crescent House at 252 Crescent Avenue, is the 22 bedroom rooming house owned by Scholastic Housing. It was purchased in the Fall of 1973 for about $16,500. Conservative estimates by a few independent real estate assessors now value the house at about $8,000. In a report to Sub Board Scholastic Housing Chairman Ed Cavan, suggestions that poor planning by the original directors plagued the experiment from its inception. Crescent House, according to Cavan, is too far away from the Main Street Campus to justify living there. Transportation costs are too great when added to a student’s basic monthly expenses. Declining enrollment and inflation also contributed to expenses, he suggested. Wrong people “the house was set up to be a cooperative living experience where residents Were supposed to share the responsibilities of running the -continued on page a—- Library acquisitions and graduate and leaching stipends are the top priorities in the University’s budget request for 1977-78. The book-sized budget request, which was shaped by the severe reductions in staff and funding last year, also lists as goals the funding of a Primary Health Care Program and a center for the Study of the Aging, a degree granting program in Architecture, and computer, services which would compensate for mandated cuts in staff. The goals in the budget request were prepared by the nine-member budget committee, which is comprised of a cross-section of University members. The request was defended before State University financial officers in Albany last week by President Robert Ketter and an entourage which included Student Association President St ve Schwartz. The budget request asks that the funds for library acquisitions be increased $770,000 overall to adequately maintain the library up-to-date for now, and, apart from the affects of inflation, in the coming years. funding in potentially available, according to the request. Health Care The request for the Prirrtary Health Care Program is for three faculty lines and $55,000 to be allotted to the Schools of Medicine and Nursing.

Before he died eleven days later, he told medics “The finally got me,” and murmured the “Adamson” and names “Emprise.” Larry Kraftowitz, former editor-in-chief of The Spectrum and presently working on an internship with Jack Anderson, however, was assigned to pick up the pieces of the puzzle where Bolles left off. Investigating in Arizona, Kraftowitz found one dead end after another. Fred Porter, a Phoenix businessman and one of Bolles’ sources who met with him secretly the morning of his death, admitted seeing Porter, but refused further comment. An attorney for Ramcorp Metals, Inc., an Emprise Affiliate, also refrained from discussing the matter.

Restrictions The Coop is presently restricted to sales of $10,000 a month, and are required to close down for the month as soon as this level has been reached. The Coop spokesperson said, however, that Summer sales have been nowhere close to this figure, and speculated that students may be unaware that the operation is open Monday through Friday from 11:30 a.m. to 3:30 p m.

Friday, 9 July 1976 . The Spectrum Page three . �I TRB Editorial Bicentennialism There is an expectant air abogt America this year. Despite the commerical horrors of the Bicentennial and the uncertainty over the next president, there is the expectation that this year is special, possibly marking a changing point in American life, maybe the beginning of an epoch of peace and stability. Some of these expectations take their strength from the revival and reexamination -ot traditional American values that has been prompted by the Bicentennial; others, taking Watergate to heart, look anxiously toward the election of one of the two anti-Washington candidates, Reagan or Carter; many others rely on the election of Jimmy Carter, V/ho, though his politics are indefinite, believe in the honesty of his smile. And so, in what ordinarily would have been another dreary year of climbing out of the recession, we find there is great anticipation of change for the better; and the feeling sdme improvement will be made this year. To begin to explain this expectation of progress, one must rememberfirst that the Bicentennial is primarily a historical revival, a popularization of Colonial American history, and a sentimental idealization of what we today believe to be the true American spirit. In 1 other words, the Bicentennial is reawakening historical consciousness in Americans, and forces us to ponder where we have come from and where we are going. This is the use to which history has always been put by mankind. In a sense, it forces us to become philosophical and seek the meaning of history. And people have sought the meaning of history persistently through the ages, as a defense against the terror inherent in the consideration of so much meaningless human suffering. Are this year's expectations overly optimistic? Are we only rationalizing the continuing poverty and unemployment in America? Are we becoming defensive about the humiliation of Vietnam and the decline of American influence worldwide? Americans are reacting to what would appear to be major failings in our system; the great domestic issues of poverty and face go unresolved, the great problems among countries become more complicated and entangling. Most Americans realize that the optimistic expectations of the 1960's are still unfulfilled, and they have reacted with a new spirit of isolationism and conservatism. At the same time, many of the liberal precepts of the 1960's have been subtly endorsed by Americans who speak of these ideals less frequently because they are now assumed to be true, are a part of our consciousness, for a while at least. Perhaps the biggest lesson of this type is that of Watergate, and its confirmation of so many people's suspicion and distrust of government. Americans who fear the growing Communist world put their support behind strengthening America militarily. Those who do not feel threatened by the changing political balance (who stress, for example, conflict within the Communist world, and detente) emphasize domestic problems. This does not do justice to the variety of opinions currently flourishing, the point is that no Single point of view is likely to dominate the others in this country for quite some time, and that because of this the kind of policy we can expect from our next president, is likely to be piecemeal, one crisis ?t a time. This, we can only conclude, will deny any unified advancement in America overall. Individual problems will either improve or deteriorate according to the ingenuity of the individual solutions we apply. Certainly America is in a time of change. Beyond this, however, the future is impossible to predict, mainly because of the biased frame of reference with which we surround our prediction, and the awareness that all world views are relative, and will pass with time. The Bicentennial and the presidential election have suggestive powers which color our opinions very thoroughly, and cause us to believe we are on the eve of a new age. By tomorrow morning we should all know better.

Paqi four Tht Spoctrum Friday, 9 July 1976 . . ; from Washington July 6,1976 With mounting wonder this reporter has seen one of the most important Senate debates in recent years go almost unreported for the past three weeks. A great Christmas Tree tax grab has been in process for the benefit fo the rich against the middle-incomes and the poor. Strong bipartisan voices of protest are raised by men who carry respect, Edward Kennedy of Massachusettes, Edmund Muskie of Maine, Fritz Mondale of Minn., Henrty Bellmon of Okla., but the television and the press seem almost oblivious. Time and Newsweek are occupied with special Bicentennial ululations about Ben Franklin and Thomas Jefferson; television is watching Jimmy Carter; the printed press can’t spare a minute from speculation £m the next vice president. All that is at stake in the Senate debate is whether Congress will continue enough tax reductions to moderate the recession, whether the new Senate budget control procedure which was passed a couple of years ago almost by a miracle will work, and whether the present shocking disparity of income in the United States will be widened. Who was it who said the present tax structure is “a disgrace to the human race?” Why, Jimmy Carter, to be sure. A group of Senate tax reformers 4s fightingto improve matters, and the struggle may'Bontinueall summer. But who cares? you wouldn’t know about it from the papers. The plot is simple. The House, which originates tax matters, sent over a reasonably good bill to the Senate with a number of reforms. It went to the Senate with a number of reforms. It went to the Senate Finance Committee under Russell Long, the oil senator from Louisiana. There the amendments began. They reported out a bill 1536 pages long, as thick as a telephone book, — — — ' • “HR 113612.” bauble Here is one Christmas Tree added by the Long committee as described by good, dependable, Sen. Mondale: it would cost the Treasury $300 million a year. This would give “over 99 percent of the relief to the top one percent of American income levels,” • Mondale explains. These tax rebates and loopholes are enormously technical. It is terribly hard for the press to decipher and describe them. By the time any one particular gimmick is explained most of the space in the newspaper news “hole” is used up. This particular proposal Mondale explains would but the tax rate on “investment income” above $100,000 (income from mortgages, stocks and bonds) from the present 70 percent to a 50 percent ceiling. If your investment income is over $100,000 you would benefit. If you are part of the unemployed, working poor, or just an average income citizen you wouldn’t benefit, you would be taxed to make up the cost. This is one of Russell Long’s Christmas-in-July proposals, and this one was fortunately defeated last week, 66—17, but others weren’t. Pending are assorted goodies to corporations and special favorites; “to be paid for,” exclaimed Sen. ' ' 12-year retroactivity. Kennedy doesn’t say these items are bad; he listed 36 specific examples, big and little, June 28; he called them “special interest provisions,” perhaps a third of them, he thought, had merit. But why handle them like this, he demanded? On a single day, more than 50 so-called “midnight loopholes” tip-toed into the bill, he revealed; the last day of the bill’s mark-up, clothed in almost impenetrably technical phraseology. In 1$74 in America some 244 individual taxpayers with adjusted gross incomes of $200,000 or over paid no federal income tax at all. At the present time the wealthiest 5 percent of the nation’s citizens get 20 percent of the income. The Long so-called tax “reform” bill would enhance this disparity and deepen the loopholes. Alert Eileen Shanahan of the New York Times came up with a funny item ,the other day; a couple of “technical” amendments in the bill would benefit members of the Long family who receive royalties frdm oil leases held by trusts by thousands perhaps millions. The amendments to the House bill had been inserted without debate or formal vote. Sen. Long denied sponsorship. He was “not even thotoughly familiar with them” he said. Who put them in? Sen. Dole of Kansas. They were proposed for him by J.D. Williams, an oil industry lobbyist, he said. Where did Williams get them? From a lawyer (unnamed) from Louisiana. Sen. Dole turned them over to a staff aide, Kim Wells, and Williams’ law partner, Donald C. Evans, Jr., was kind enough to help Kim Wells put them in shape. By coincidence, Williams and his family contributed $1500 to Dole, and $2050 to Long, in their 1974 reeelection campaign. “Son there we have it,” says the Washington Star editorially. “Two provisions drafted by lobbyists put into a tax bill at the request of lobbyists. No hearing. No chance for anyone who might oppose to testify.” — - Evaluate the Colleges To the Editor Richard Korman — “by the ordinary, hard-working. Proxmire, God-fearing average American family, to almost every major industry in the country.” “The shameful fact is,” Kennedy told the Senate, “that many of these special provisions have no merit at all. They are insinuated into the tax bills at the behest of lobbyists, and added at the' request of big campaign contributors. lt gives the obvious impression that the Internal Revenue 'ode is up for sale,” The press hasn’t been giving much attention to these technical matters. Chances are you got instead stories about uncommitted delegates, the big Reagan-Ford sporting event of the century, and whether Jimmy Carter would benefit more from Rep. Rodino or John Glenn as runningmate. Just the same these affect your pocketbook. Do you think Mobil Oil and other companies should be allowed to claim tax deductions for certain sums paid to Iran, which would cost the U.S. Treasury $40 million a year for 10 years? That’s in the bill. Should Congress overturn an IRS ruling requiring Marriott (hotel) Corporation and the Restaurant Employees Union to include tips (listed on charge account slips) for tax purposes? It’s in the bill; cost about $5 million. Should Coca Cola be allowed to exempt a particular franchise from personal holding company rules, reducing the tax rate from 70 percent to 48 percent? This item would include with it.

Cooper's Leatherstocking Tales survived Mark Twain's crochety literary complaints, the Lone Ranger has survived ingenious commercial (including a exploitation campaign by Geno's Pizza Rolls) and the satire of Lenny Bruce; and now the Wizard of Oz has survived a new book about it: Doug McClelland's Down The Yellow Brick Road: The Making of the Wizard of Oz. Oz is certainly one of the-fnost magical and affecting films of all time, the popularity of which is not an emblem of its slight worth but is a as is often the case real mythical true sign of ■ — — power. As all creations which have this compelling universal appeal and significance. The Wizard of Oz explains the world at the same time it cannot itself be explained. Yet McClelland, among other things, tries valiantly and fails —' to explain this film in his lame and fascinating book: lame for its and sometimes embarrassing nostalgia and for its indulgent awkward attempts to give Oz — mythical for perspective; fascinating its anecdotes, it technical detail, and its slight, but adequate, historical embrace. Down the Yellow Brick Road fails, in a way, not because McClelland searches for Oz's, meaning, but because he finds it. Ray Bolger, for instance, is quoted in the book's last chapter ("The Legend") as if to explain the Wizard of Oz: "The philosophy of Oz is man's search a heart, for basic human needs brains, courage. And that, chum, will never be old hat." Attempts like this to give The Wizard of Oz meaning it deserves not to have reminds me of every marriage manual ever written: scores of pictures and diagrams and yards of sincere prose are all woven about an uncomfortably simple core of meaning; it's nice. McClelland relies too much on Hamilton's bland Margaret testimony about the making of Oz. From the variety of his sources in quoting her it is obvious she is the one surviv/or of the original case most willing to be interviewed. As such, she shares with legions of other willing interview subjects a penchant for pleasant, but essentially useless, enthusiasms for the past. (At one point, referring to a musical sequence cut out of the film at the last moment, McClelland provides us with this deathless piece of parenthetical scholarship: "Margaret Hamilton recalls it as 'great'.") Of course, in his attempt to Oz with a firm provide — - significance in our own time, the author drags the familiar Dorothy Gale Judy Garland irony out of the closet and, once again, beats it to death before our glazed eyes.

The minor parts are acted with energy and pervades convincing professionalism. even the throughout, final scene robbing of the that we More than a lover Keith Baxter's Anthony is not simply a conscience-ridden lover, but also a man whose exalted conception of himself is out of proportion with his reality, and grows more inflated as his actual Complex, but coherent diminishes.

It does so by taking care not to subordinate has been momentarily victorious in battle, the full force of his any of the play's parts in order to produce a superficially coherent over-blown rant is conveyed to us.

She sometimes seems less to want his love than to want no one else to have it. Maggie Smith does not convey this desperate need to hold Anthony in body, nor the misdirection or fnisunderstanding it imples. Cleopatra is herself an actress, but actress-as-whore, willing to play any part, to become anything, and to abandon her identity and/or integrity. She frustrated at her. We feel she is playing a trivial, self-centered of, unaware and game, unconcerned for, the serious business at hand. By the end of the play, of course, we will come to feel that her instinctive perception upon which she was able to act only in the most misguided and self-defeating manner was wiser than ours, that the really serious business at hand was the deep love not the trivial one between her and Anthony, a love which only their deaths allow to take its true form. We come to feel that there was an irreconcilable rift between Egypt and Rome, and between the physical world and Anthony's Cleopatra's and exalted understandings of themselves and each other. It is as metaphors or symbols to each other that they most importantly exist. Though they cannot translate those metaphors into physical fact without becoming absurd, they can, as Sigurd Burckhardt argued in The King's Language, win through to their own proper realm where imaginative reality has detached itself from any necessary connection to a physical reality and has assumed its own validity as and meaning.

Perhaps it is because she relies upon the fluttery indecisiveness which has virtually become her acting trademark, and because this mannerism seems to come from the center of her being. indecisive — Love and lies Whatever the reason, there ought always to be a sense that Cleopatra's changeableness and wantonness are not profound, are — contrived, are all on the surface.

I don't think so. There's a very special feeling about any festival, and it has a lot to do with the nature of folk music and the people who love it. For one thing, those people do indeed love it enough to brave sometimes long and hard journeys, and hang the expense. What draws people to a folk festival is usually not the "stars"; it's the music itself, the vibrations that come out when people gather to celebrate an art which is made for us to share with each other. And we go not just to see it happen, but to do it ourselves as well. It's impossible to go through an entire festival without once Trying your hand all right, your feet at square dancing, joining in on a rousing chorus, or strumming your favorite Joni Mitchell 'song. Most of the time, the performers are friendly, too, with anyone who wants to talk to them as much as among themselves. The setting helps to gentle the mood, too acres of green grass, with a river or lake almost always nearby. And nowhere is the setting more lovely, the performers and audience more pleasant, or the mood more golden than at Mariposa.' — John Roberts and Tony Barrand ji \ Mariposa craftsmen. an experience in folk Every year, *at around the end of June, a major music happening takes place on a small island in Lake Ontario off the shores of Toronto,’ yet surprisingly few Americans know it exists. The Mariposa Folk Festival is actually a multi-faceted event, combining some of the most talented, but not necessarily most well-known musicians of North America and Great Britain with crafts exhibits Native demonstrations, and People's workshops, and activities towards geared especially an children. The result: experience that means a little bit different to everyone is remembered and but appreciated by all. Not so tong ago, I belpnged to the ranks of those who had never deeply in our past and continually enriches our present. I made my first trip to Mariposa last June, so this year, although a host of unfamiliar names turned up in the program, I felt much more at home. There's a special feeling at Mariposa which comes from lying on your back in the grass with the warmth of the sun penetrating your skin and the sound of great music penetrating your soul. The feeling is so strong that even a vicious rainstorm, which washed out the afternoon and early evening schedule from’ the second day (June 26) of the festival, could not three-day dampen the spirits of the soaking wet crowd. Although extremely intimate for an event of its size, the Festival is carefully structured and the major activity revolves around seven make-shift stages that are spread out over the grounds. The performers move from area to area throughout the tong days, , playing bearing titles like "List Ye Well, Songs at workshops Moral" With a Newfoundland Time." and "A Everyone's a star This year's most sought-after Margaret MacArthur heard of Mariposa. Having been what you might call a "music dilettante" my whole life, folk music, to me, meant the popular artists, like Joni Mitchell and Bob Dylan, with Dave Bromberg and Doc Watson standing on the sidelines.

For many of the performers, it is often a reunion with old friends, a place to jam and exchange some of the musical knowledge and insights they have acquired since the last time they met. For most of the audience, it is a listening and learning experience, a total involvement with folk music and folk musicians. For children, it is a place to hear stories and run in the grass and watch paper-mache people come to life.

Like Amy, this was my second year at Mariposa; when I stepped off the ferry from the Toronto mainland to Center Island, walked past the concession booths, the Last-Year-At-Marienbad gardens, and the "Please Walk On The Grass" signs to the festival grounds. The Festival seemed to have gone on without stopping since last summer; it felt the Same. This time, though, there were white puffs floating in the air, the same kind that drifted through the town of Fellini's Amarcord. That was a memory, too. There was Robert Pete Williams, one of the very last of-the great Southern blUesmen, playing as hard as he can and then apologizing "This isn't my guitar; it's the best 1 can do with it." There were familiar sounds: the gentle, ethereal tones of Margaret MacArthur's voice and lap harp, and the strong, unaccompanied ones- of Scottish singer — Norman Kennedy.

Several performers, including a large contingent from Newfoundland, were unable to make it because, of the Canadian air controllers' strike (settled, ironically, on the last day of the Festival). The strike was in protest of the use of French at airports. At Mariposa, though, there was no rancor evident as fiddler Louis Boudreault played, and Robert Pacquette even led a group-sing of "Alouette," (After which I overheard "Is he from Montreal or that — — Quebec?") Patchwork quilt "Here we're presenting a culture that's strong and viable, and that stands on its own." That statement by Bernice Reagon, embodiment of pride in being black and a woman, reaches far; every culture at the Festival stood on its own, while mixing with all the others. I saw it in Reverend Pearly Brown, whose legacy is that of Blind Willie McTell and Reverend Gary Davis, as he sat listening to Scottish piper Finlay Mac Neil.* I heard it in the African drummers whose tempo matched exactly with that of the mournful banjo and ancient tenor of Kentucky's Roscoe Holcomb. Taj Mahal, John Jackson, and Robert Pete Williams cover three generations of music, but it all came out blues. For sheer energy, the high point had to be the union of Steve Goodman, Ken Bloom, and Gamble Rogers, whose "Three Men In A Tub" workshop expanded into six with the unscheduled arrival of bassist Jim Gordon, harmonica master Saul Broudy, and Lewis London, who can smoke on anything with strings.

'The Omen' scarier than 'The Exorcist' Looks are deceiving,.and from the looks of five-year-old Harvey Stevens, nobody would guess that he is really a little devil a Satan in the flesh. Scarier than The Exorcist, The Omen, starring Harvey Stevens, Gregory Peck (who still looks as good as ever) and Lee Remick, captures the audience's attention from the first death to the last minute. Throughout the movie, audiences sit white-knuckled at their seats To heighten the tension, a few seconds before anything is about to happen, Gregorian Chants are heard low at first, then rising to a momentous crescendo, making one’s hair stand on end.

Page nine �RECORDS Ian Matthews, Go For Broke (Columbia) Ian Matthews is what you could call a rather obscure musical personage, that is if you were so inclined. Matthews' obscurity had led me to believe he had forsaken the music industry for the aluminium siding and storm-window trade, but Go For Broke proves just how wrong a critic can be. It shows that the doctrine of infallibility doesn't apply to us longhaired another curators of musical excellence myth shot to hell. Getting back to the subject at hand, Ian's musical history is rather mundane. He enjoyed a stint with the Fairport Convention, only then to follow a solo career that was occasionally allied with a band called Southern Comfort. From the Anglo-folk meanderings of the Convention, Ian journeyed into folk-rock and a bit of distilled country music. Go For Broke is Matthews' attempt to gear his sound more toward the lines of pop and disco. While Matthews, at best, has never been wildly creative or brilliant, he sometimes attains a precision and peacefulness which can be Neil Diamond Beautiful Noise (Columbia) You may be wondering why I bothered to review this album;- indeed, after three listenings, I began to do the same thing myself. My original reasons v/ere two: first, it was the only thing that interested me out of all this week's promos. Second, Neil Diamond has not done any recording since 1974 (when the commercially successful Serenade was released), so I figured that the comeback of any major artist, even if after less than two years, deserved some pop or disco, and it isn't distinct enough to stick in the memory. Admittedly there are some attempts at rock 'n-roll the modern type, not what Diamond used to do. These meet with some success but they lack the force and well-controlled energy needed to be effective. The overall impression I get is that the title should really be Beautiful mildly hypnotic. — mention. On the inside envelope there is a quote, written by Diamond, which reads, in part: "This album is a series of recollections . . seen through the eyes of a young songwriter making his way through the streets of New York City's tin pan alley in the early 1960's." So that's it; old Neil has decided to go back to his roots. He's decided to start putting more effort into his music and create something that radiates energy, like "Cherie, Cherie" or even "Thank the Lord for the Nighttime," instead of the mellowed out stuff he's been . producing lately . Or so I thought, and once again I was wrong. Beautiful Noise offers little respite from the soft rock you hear on AM when they aren't playing heavy metal, country It's too bad Go For Broke is such a sickly offering. and Ian's weak transformation to pop and disco is sabotaged on several fronts. Probably the biggest stumbling block is Matthews' voice, which while pleasing enough just cannot sustain the dynamics involved hs{e to bring this caper off. His treatment of Van Morrison's “Brown Eyed Girl" is about as soulful as Julie Eisenhower hustling on Soul Train. “Groovin'" completely lacks the urban funky harmonies and joyous sweat that the Rascals brought to the tune. Matthews' voice doesn't have the flexibility and range required to do these songs justice. The tunes penned by Ian and friends sound like throwaway numbers from the Sonny and Cher Show. The melodies are hollow and the studio band plays with all the fervor of a fallen Catholic defending the Pope (now there is a fella who is infallible). Only on Tim MOore's anyway. Beautiful Noise is, after all, a Neil Diamond album, so he is the orte ultimately responsible for it. No amount of crack musicianship is going to mask his lyrical pretensions found in "Street of Jeff Beck, Wired (Epic) Jeff Beck made a major breakthrough a little over a year ago when he released the album Blow by Blow, an amazing departure from his prevalent rock-blues forte into purely instrumental realms of and even nine-eight Mahavishnu jazz,, soul guitar-gunning. Wired, the follow-up to Blow by Blow, is a logical progression along the same lines, and although it is as not as surprisingly original or melodically strong as its predecessor, it succeeds on a number of other levels. Beck is joined on this LP by two ex-members of the various Mahavishnu orchestras, and their influence is all too apparent. Narada Michael Walden, who had a tough time replacing Billy Cobham after McLaughlin's first purge, plays drums on half of Wired. Despite ah excellent grasp of jazz and dance rhythms, he does not quite fill the shoes of Blow by Blow's Richard Bailey, who appears here on only two cuts. However, Walden seems to be Beck's new protege, and half of the eight compositions on the album are his he even plays piano on the acoustic ''Love is Green," seemingly the best of his four. Keyboardist Jan Hammer, whose tasteful, musical use of synthesizer (with McLaughlin's original M.O.) has since been mimicked by every jazz-rocker worth his Moog, is at a loss for ideas on Wired. His unison riffs with Beck's guitar remind one of too many things heard before, and his solos all guitar-like flourishes, pitch-bent and echoplexed, are beginning to repeat themselves (so to speak). His aesthetic contribution to this album is almost nil (he plays surprisingly adept drums on "Blue Wind," his own composition), and he could have easily been replaced here by one of his many imitators. The bass playing of Wilbur Bascomb is slightly better than that of Phil Chenn (the bassist on Blow by Blow), and he displays excellent knowledge of the funky bottom, one of the basic trademarks of Beck's "new sound." The chief conspirator in the aforementioned funky bottom, however, is Max Middleton, Jeff's longtime keyboard man, who syncopates on clavinet and Fender Rhodes with the best of them. Middleton's composition "Led Boot (as the title may or may not imply) seems to be a parody of riff-rock, and is far inferior to his "Freeway Jam" on Blow by Blow. There is also nothing approaching that album's Beck-Middleton collaborations "You Know What I Mean" and West" does Matthews .connect with the material. The remainder of the songs should be' piped to that big muzak bingo hall in the sky. Go For Broke comes up with nothing more than a handful of dust. Matthews must come to terms with his musical limitations and recruit a band that will challenge his capabilities and until that time, Matthews deserves to dwell in he'll be doing obscurity. Whether aluminium siding work in Sussex may well rest on the outcome of his next disc. —Sebastian Flyte idea of what it was like I must be fair, though; there are three songs that actually, enjoy listening to. One of them'is the title tune a well produced, forceful effort rather reminiscent of Billy Joel. I also like "Sings" because it is restful and graceful without being lethargic. It gives the same effect as "Stones," one of Neil Diamond's better recent compositions. Finally, there is "If You Know What I Mean," which alternates •mediocre verses This choruses. very strong with incidentally, has been called as the first a perplexing choice, but one that single seems to be working out. A better selection, in my opinion, would have been "Don't Think . . because it is'more throwawy in tune with this I — Music. This album's defects certainly cannot be laid at the doorstep of the accompnaying musicians, for Diamond has amassed quite a backup band. As the cover loudly proclaims, Robbie Robertson of the Band acts as producer, as well as frequent electric guitarist and co-author of one of the songs. The drummers include Russ Kunkel and Jim Keltner; sometimes Joe Lala adds a little percussion. Keyboards are usually handled by Larry Knechtel, and Tom Scott does a nice tenor sax solo on one of the cuts. These are the most well-known musicians. The list could be made longer, but why bother? They have little bearing on the album's quality, poignant and bittersweet "A Fool Like You," and Ian's’own' "Rhythm of the - — . age. disguise the synthesized reggae sound of Feel," the ersatz "Don't Think Dixieland band style of "Stargazer" or the weak, gospel-ish choruses in "Surviving the Life." Better arrangements might have improved the slow ballads like "Lady Oh," (which Sound washed out as they are) but I doubt it. If Diamond's aim was to . . . — recreate parts of time pan alley, I think he's failed. His conception of that time and place seems to be worse than mine, which is saVing a lot because I have only a vague ’ Frankly, I cannot find anything here that is really distinguishable from the other Neil Diamond material I've heard. In fact, it may be worse, because Diamond's voice becomes annoyingly raspy when he tries to of feeling into his pump a lot compositions, which occurs frequently here.

Friday, 9 July 1976 "Scatterbrain" on Wired, and in fact, the head guitar honcho has given up writing altogether. It is Beck himself, nonetheless; who makes this album shine as it does. On Blow by Blow, the prevailing magic was in the themes, rhythms ahd production, and Jeff's solos seemed to be almost afterthoughts. Wired, lacking the chordal mystique of Stevie Wonder's "Since We've Ended as Lovers" or Bud Holland's "Diamond Dust" has Beck concentrating more on improvisation. His guitar is consistently amazing, and the occasional use of electronic effects adds to expressive content, rather than noise. The weeping beauty of "Since We've Ended As Lovers" is recaptured on Charlie Mingus' "Goodbye Pork Pie Hat" (quite possibly the album's best), and the octave-divided funk of "Thelonius" is outdone in several places, most notably Walden's "Come Dancing." Although it is not the masterpiece that last year's offering proved to be. Beck's newest holds its own, and will please his fans as well as many jazz purists. Less concentration on guest stars and more on composition (let's see some Vnore Beck-Middleton tunesf would have made this album great rather than just good.

Books, rather than having any intrinsic value, have become adjuncts to events, and, more precisely, adjuncts to mass media events. Although a section of the population still reads literature, a growing number of people read in order to relive events first presented to them by newspapers, radio, movies and television. In fact, many readers will discover Miss Ray's book through its serialization in a famous weekly scandal sheet.

Young's electric Cotton's acoustic twelve-string, and Garth's fiddle, was a pleasant from Poco's usual respite redundancy. After a brief' intermission, the Stills Young Band hit the stage with a sloppy, strained versibn of "Love the One You're With" which, regrettably, set the tone for most of the evening's electric music. The band, consisting of Jerry Aiello on organ, Joe Lala on percussion, Malcolm Holmes on, bass, and Joe Vitale on drums and vocals, provided adequate backing Mostly but little versatility. members of Stills' latest backup tended to they band, over-Latinize the arrangements, and came nowhere near Poco in terms of instrumental elegance. More of the same Most of the material which featured the entire band was repetitive with weak harmonies, mundane arrangements, and too much volume detracting from what could have been decent versions of several Stills/Young classics. Songs such as "The Loner'A (the newer Stills-arranged version), "Black Queen" (electric, with a five-minute Stills guitar barrage), and Stills' "Buyin' Time" (a ripoff of the Isleys' "Work to Do") tended to sound like different takes of the same thing. Particularly messy versions of "Southern Man" and "Cowgirl in the Sand" (check the Four l/Vay Street LP) were rescued by moments of atypically fascinating guitar interplay by Stills and Young. These moments were rare. The most tolerable of the electric material came during the first set, with a slowed down "For What It's Worth," and excellent mellow versions of .Stills' "Open Young's Door” and the "Helpless."

The slapped-together Stills-Young Band served to detract from it's leaders' sound (as did CSNY's rhythm section) by making a "rock group" out of them excessive volume and the proliferation of lengthy guitar jams made this a forgettable show. When working together, these two men seem to shine only on their more subdued country and folk material, and this was the case at the Falls Sunday night.

In revoking the College’s charter, Ketter endorsed the minority report of the Colleges Chartering Review Committee (CCRC) which asked that the College be terminated, rather than the majority report, which recommended .conditional approval. Ketter announced his decision in a memorandum Tuesday, along with his conditional approval of Tolstoy College until July 1977. In the memo, Ketter said that besides considering the CCRC report he also sought and heeded the opinions of Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg and members of the “Academic Cabinet.” SSC Executive Committee member Howie Kling termed the decision undemocratic, stating that no one at the College was contacted and that there had been no talks or negotiations regarding future restrictions on the College. Kling felt there was a lack of communication between the College and the entire Chartering process. Kling said there would be attempts made to reverse the decision. A letter writting campaign is already underway. College meetings have been held to discuss strategy. Support gathering Kling indicated that the College was gathering support from community people and faculty. Several faculty associated with other Colleges have expressed support for Social Sciences. The Colleges Council voted 8 to 2 last week to support the College. A Buffalo community center has praised the College for providing services to West Side Youth enrolled here. Ketter’s memo indicated his basic rationale for revoking the College’s charter was a lack of “faculty participation” and “absence of academic and an administrative leadership.” The memo also questioned the qualifications of some instructors. In a letter dated May 26, Spitzberg told Ketter, “there is no doubt that of all the Colleges, SSC has the weakest set of instructors in terms of demonstrated qualifications.” Spitzberg’s letter also called for less teaching by graduate students, and full faculty involvement. Spitzberg went on to say that only two of the graduate students currently teaching met with his qualifications. Kling countered that over ninety percent of the grad student teachers are teaching courses well within their specialized fields of study, and that there are several instructors teaching courses in subjects directly related to their theses projects. A letter from the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) charged that Spitzberg has ignored graduate student teaching throughout the University. Forty percent of all undergraduate teaching is done by graduate students, it said. GSEU claimed Spitzberg told an organization official that graduate students teach too much at the University and that most of them are incompetent and incapable of running a program like SSC. Kling said that Spitzberg has also been opposed to hiring instructors drawn from the community, citing the recent veterans course taught by Dan Amigone, who was a leader of the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and a veterans counselor at this University. Spitzberg canceled the course because he felt Coordinator of Veteran’s Affairs Clarence Dye’s evaluation of the course was incomplete. College members claimed Spitzberg was ignoring community work and experience in favor of traditional qualifications. Review process The chartering process, which Ketter mandate'dan January 1975, required review of tne charters of both Tolstoy and Social abolished, and that all the Colleges cease offering credit-bearing courses. Assurances Gangemi said that the Chartering Committee decided to continue only if it had assurances that its report would be given as much credence as the Planning Report. Kling charged that the Committee’s members were selected specifically for their bias against the College. After several votes, the majority report was approved by six votes, and the minority report by three. Graduate School Dean MacAlister Hull, a member of the Executive Cabinet, said that his “personal recommendation to the President was to support the minority Dr. Robert Ketter Sciences Colleges. The process, which commenced the day prior to release of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, was finished by the end of the Spring 1976 semester. According to Marcia Gangemi, a student on the chartering committee, the report was supposed to have been made public after its release from committee, and sent to Ketter. The committee’s majority report proposes that the College be continued if there is a significant overturn in its leadership. The minority recommendation expressed doubt that this transformation is possible and that the College had already been given sufficient time to comply with the committee chartering previous recommendation which also called for new leadership, and that the College should therefore be abolished. According to Gangemi, the Chartering Committee almost decided to disband at the end of its first meeting in this series when Spitzberg announced the results of the Academic Committee Planning regarding the two Colleges in question. The Academic Planning Committee recommended that both Colleges be for the reasons which they expressed,” although he noted that he did not see continuation of the College as recommendation ... “unreasonable.” Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Kisk, another Cabinet member, said he endorsed Ketter’s decision because he was disturbed by the lack of faculty involvement in the College. When asked whether he thought the timing of the announcement had been planned for a period when College activity is low, Kling emphatically agreed, this is our weakest point of “Absolutely that won’t stop us.” the year, but Student Association (SA) President Steven Schwartz said that he was upset — both with the decision and the way it was reached. He added that SA was considering action but that first it would consult with College members. Ketter said in his memo that the strong with minority report, coupled overwhelming disapproval of the College from what he termed “responsible academic officers” whose comments he requested provided a strong argument for dissolving the College. When Kling was asked whether it would be possible to incorporate the program in another department,, he said that the faculty of SSC could probably not cooperate with such a move, and it was too early to answer the question. Howard Kling Kling also stated that he thought that the hiring of a Marxist professor to carry on the ideas of the College was a “pipe dream,” and suggested that Marxist scholars at this University were being fired rather than hired. He also said the adminsitration was looking for a purely academic, non-activist, “Ivy League” Marxist college. College Chief Administrative Officer William Stein, after being told of Ketter’s the decision, commented, “If administration of this University wants a transformation in the leadership of the College, at my age, 54, I am no caterpillar. I am not going to turn into a butterfly at this point,” Correction It was incorrectly reported in last Friday’s issue of The Spectrum that educational benefits to University of Buffalo veterans had been cut off. Actually, the Veteran’s Administration is studying the University’s application for “approved” status, and it is likely no decision will be reached for several months. Meanwhile, veteran’s are encouraged to seek available benefits. See story on page 3. �‘Tattle Tale System’ slows library thefts Besides having been hit hard by the cutbacks in the University ‘book.

Serba said it takes 3 to 4 weeks or longer to effect a change in records, and since payments are made in advance of each semester, overpayments often occur. A who beings a semester with 12 credit hours and drops four, for example, will often months, of three receive overpayment until the change is noticed. Joseph Krakowiak, Veterans Associate Coordinator, said the VA has an outmoded idea of education which does not include the liberal academic policies of certain institutions. He added that VA often overlooks the “human factors” in attempting to enforce educational standards for eligible veterans, a function usually left to the states, and carried out by the state veteran approving agencies. Serba maintained that because the approving agencies are funded with federal money and operate according to VA guidelines, the separation between the agency and the VA only “gives the appearance of independence.” veterans Meanwhile, all released from service before January, 1955, and June, 1956, lost their educational benefits May 3 1.

Schwartz cited the desire to return to teaching and research as part of his reason for resigning. The resignation was also a protest 6f the recent cutbacks to the School of Pharmacy. “Unless other sources of funds are found, it will have very severe effects on the school’s program,” Schwartz said. Schwartz claimed the cuts were irrational in light of the high rating of the Pharmacy School, and based upon a misunderstanding of the School’s financial status and misleading information which should not have been used.

This allowance is made with the agreement that no additional space will be allotted to them untji they 8 row to the normal 118 percent occupancy, a figure established by the administration planning, their The Spectrum has have the school will be decimated after next year if the outlook for the budget does not change. Failure to communicate Although the cahirmen of several departments also tendered because of their resignations internal problems, they ary now being held in abeyance pending the with negotiations Administration, according to a source in the School. The chairmen were not available for comment; however, it has been learned that at least one of them also listed protests against the budget cuts as a cause. Other reasons given for the resignations included the lowered amount of space provided for Pharmacy at new Amherst campus and failure of administration outside the School of Pharmacy to communicate with the School. Apparently the tendering of the resignations has had a positive effect, according to the same source, because Vice President for Health Affairs F. Carter Pannill is now willing to iron out the School’s fiscal problems. One of the factors leading to the protest by faculty is the cutback in the number of square feet allocated to the School of the Cookein Pharmacy Hochstetter Towers where they will be housed. According to Albert Dahlberg, Assistant to the Vice President for Facilities Planning, the original promise to Pharmacy was nearly 80,000 of 150,000 approximately the available square feet in the building, which they will share with the biologies.

The School was asked to take a 20 percent cutback of the 1.2 million dollar budget it maintained this year. Facilities Planning are the gatekeepers of space for the University, said Dahlberg. “We have to control space based on state guidelines. There’s a very close tie-in with the budget.” In a nationwide survey of professional schools conducted a year ago, the School of Pharmacy was the only unit at SUNY at Buffalo and one of only three in the entire SUNY system, to be rated near the top of its profession.

Ketter's revocation of the College's charter Tuesday, in the atmosphere of the budget crisis, officially punishes the Social Sciences College for failing to comply with an academic standard imposed by the faculty-dominated review process. Here the purposes of conservative faculty coincide with the purposes of conservative administrators. The new Colleges constitution passed by the Faculty Senate in 1973 required “substantial faculty involvement" as a prerequisite for having charters renewed. The Chartering Review Committee reported that Social Sciences College failed on this count. We are not so sure. 'Substantial' is a fairly arbitrary term. Less controversial Colleges find it easy tb attract faculty, and have fewer reservations about the review process. But Social Sciences has resisted the chartering and review process, on principle, from the beginning. Part of the problem is the imposition of an academic standard which is antithetical to the original conception of the Colleges. The new constitution was bitterly opposed by many Collegians at the time it was passed. This brings us to the problem of instructor qualifications. The courses and instructors in the College have been previously approved by the Division of Undergraduate Education. Many of the instructors are graduate students, with varying academic backgrounds. Many have specialized experiences outside academics, and teach classes well within their qualification. The poverty of faculty review is its bias against non-traditional education, and, therefore, its bias against the idea of the Colleges as an alternative to traditionally qualified faculty. This bias is inherent in academic “legitimization," the ostensible motive for chartering. The attempts to infuse Social Sciences College with traditionally qualified faculty could do nothing.but fail. Social Sciences College is living, activated political economy and Marxism, and is not at all theoretical in the sense that is wishes to prove or simply consider Marxist hypotheses. These hypotheses are assumed to be true, and so a Social Sciences College lesson may be devoted to ways of acting on these hypotheses in real life. This is at the heart of Social Sciences College, and is behind the antagonism between the College and conservative elements on campus. In the end, an explanation of the College's termination must overlook the pretense an appointed committee makes to academic objectivity, and return to a political economist's view; that is, that th,e University, as an agency of the State is presided over by Trustees drawn from the wealthy capitalist and industrial classes. President Ketter is their designee. His action will disenfranchise a large part of the active political left at this University.

The recent report of the review committee for Social Sciences College, and attendant memorandum issued by Irving Spitzberg, Dean of the Colleges, present a clear attack on graduate student teaching at this university. The major thrust of criticism expressed in Spitzberg’s memo and the committee report is directed towards the composition of leadership and staff of the College. At present the coordinators of the College are two graduate students, an undergraduate, and a faculty “chief administrative officer.” The staff is comprised of a majority of graduate students, with a significant proportion of community people. Underlying all the remarks regarding the College is a profound objection to the extensive participation of graduate students. Spitzberg himself proposes as a condition for reconstitution a “reduction in graduate student dominance of the College’s life.” He questions the qualifications of the College staff, calling for the “elimination of all old courses and instructors,” and maintains that only two instructors were able to meet his requirements in letter and spirit. It is important to note that he is questioning the teaching credentials of a large number of graduate employees. Most graduate employees are teaching courses in the College directly related to their own field of study in their respective departments. Why then this new zeal in dealing with people normally deemed qualified to teach at this university? The Dean and the Committee, who seem determined to apply the general standards of the university to a College dedicated to alternative education have mysteriously ignored the presence of graduate teaching in the larger university structure. In fact, 40 percent of all undergraduate teaching is done by graduate students. Certainly, Spitzberg is well aware of the population of graduate staff at U.B. Either he is disregarding the facts or he finds them incompatible with his own interests and educational philosophy. Spitzberg’s attitudes toward education and the university become clear in light of his remarks to a GSEU official. He stated that graduate students teach too much at the university and maintained' that most of them are incompetent teachers, He further noted that graduate students are clearly incapable of running a program like the College, Such remarks invite speculation on a larger issue. The present attack on Social Sciences College is not .simply an isolated assault on a few radical instructors, but is part of a more general and malicious threat against graduate student employees. Such an attack appears to be part of a general university trend to question the suitability of graduate students for teaching responsibilities. The GSEU recognizes the plight of Social Sciences reflects in part, the deteriorating position of graduate students at this university. The GSEU supports the endeavors to maintain Social Sciences College as part of a larger struggle to improve the status and working conditions of graduate employees at SUNYAB.

The scores to the "Makrokosmos" show a precise notation and certain selections take a shape symbolizing their subtitle. Only Mikhashoff could suspend the tension and drama of Crumb's music; which if not controlled could overpower and/or lose its liste'ner. The next concert was Wednesday, a night for Satie. Four-handed piano pieces ("Trois Morceaux en Forme de Poire" and "En Habit fie Cheval") were rendered by Mikhashoff and Nils Vigeland, and a piano solo ("Trois Nocturnes") by Vigeland (whose somber style seems tp better fit Satie's - provided a full view of Erik Satie.

I calmness Charlie Byrd transmits a genuine calmness that tears you from the steely, manufactured city to an unkown El Dorado set amidst tranquil fields of sound. This is accomplished through an aural orientation that lines the senses with a seemingly impossible actuality. Many times I find it difficult to believe something I can't see. I was not more than fifteen feet away from Byrd, but I very often could not see his fingers pluck his guitar's strings. I could hear the concerto-like singing in the melodic grace of Byrd's interpretation, and that was enough to make me hold creed in his ability. During a tune called "One Note Song," Byrd's creative expression \vith a lilting Spanish guitar seemed to enamour the accepted version of the number with a jovial spirit of jazz. I thought a problem with Byrd's style might be in his meticulous, almost nit-picking artistry. In this age of unstudied and unlearned rock music production, it seems the rule's exception to discover an artist even in the jazz mode. If this seemed to create an using sheet music uneasiness on my part, the halting of the show when an FM radio image stowed its ghostly self amidst the speakers seemed just a bit too much for me. After all, the show must go on, since you destroy audience mood when the act stops, right? Genuine — I Plays Beatle tune Byrd really begins to cook with his rendition of the Beatles' "Hey Jude." His fingers move with ease up and down the neck of his guitar. The notes wind and twist through the air to grab at the crowd at the back of the club. It is a large crowd some of the standing-room-only crowd at the Statler can't see Byrd but still they appreciate the sound as witnessed by long, wild appaluse subsequent to each number. After this, you somehow wish that Byrd wasn't caged in the night-club scene but was free in the middle of a field where all who cared to listen could come and go as they pleased while Byrd would allude to nature and idyllic life through his guitar. He has much independence at present although this scene's simile'seems a very graphic setting for Byrd's artistry. The Charlie Byrd Trio is composed of the drums of Wayne Phillips and Byrd's brother Joe on bass. The two don't supplement Byrd's acoustic sound, but complement it. As well as Charlie plays guitar, Joe plays both electric and stand-up bass. This is especially prominent on the original Byrd composition, "Blues for Night People," as the bass soars and throbs with riffs fit for the label of perfection. Whether they be soft or pounding, Wayne Phillip's drums capture the enraptured freedom that is so often found in the notes of Byrd's guitar. Charlie Byrd has built himself a nest of welcome reception that —Harold Goldberg will be his always when he travels to Buffalo. — a fact thfat was never mentioned in the dialogue credits. This doctoring on the sly was a disservice to both Mr. Mifune and Mr. Frees, as well as the audience What Midway most closely compares to is a rather profane rewrite of a DC war comic, with all of the attendant depth. Sensurround contributes a lot of deafening sound, the bombastic production a lot of fury all signifying absolutely nothing. Midway's title is too generous; it only goes about a quarter of the way towards being worth seeing. Midway is playing at the Holiday and Boulevard Mall Theatres. Page six The Spectrum Friday, 25 June 1976 . A relatively short-lived time ago, I lived on a farm in West Virginia; recalling those days is a magic cloaked in a child's fantasy world, as I was only two' years of age. Nevertheless, I remember playing alone in pastoral grassy fields with the muddy Shenendoah River meandering slowly by, its smell lingering because of the humid summer heat in that area. Amidst that scene, I caught my first monarch butterfly, put it in a jar with holes poked in for air and dropped in a fistful of clover arid thistles to simulate the butterfly's meadow environment. The butterfly almost died and I had to free it. What the hell does that story have to do with a jazz review? It bears a great deal of significance to my critique of Charlie Byrd, the fine jazz and classical guitarist who is in the midst of a two-week series of gigs at the Statler Hilton's Downtown Room. I'm usually a semi-stalwart and unendingly persevering character in attempt to review. trying to obtain an interview with the people an artist adds form to an Usually, any form of conversation with subjective or talk adds usually, the article's interpretation. And metaphor in leads to to writer's mind which a obective information print. But I couldn't talk to Charlie Byrd. He quite probably would have been willing, but I wouldn't hav/e< been as any conversation would have killed the matric of a mood that rapidly formed as the evening progressed. Simple rock I don't know exactly why this bothers me so. Perhaps the feeling emerges from the rock world I'm immersed in, along with its relatively simple melodies and its uncomplicated, easy-going style. Or maybe the feeling has its roots in the route music takes in approaching the ear. Music should come from the human physical form; when even a guitar is employed to interpret music, a wall is built through employing a mechanical object to yield sound. At least this somewhat palpable phenomenon comes with the end product t)f music; but when the audience sees the beginning of the music process hampered by the extra thought process needed to read sheet music, and then has those thoughts deceived by another wall in the form of a radio image; the crystal clear, immaculate music form seems forced. All this brings us back to Byrd and the illusive butterfly analogy. could have asked the guitarist about the sheet music, but bringing up the point would further wall the music process. Soon my fears for Charlie Byrd's music disappeared. With a voice flickering with humor, Byrd spoke early enough to dismiss the bothersome radid image by saying, "You've got two for the price of one." As for the sheet music, its annoying quality passed from existence as Byrd began to play a better guitar than anyone I've ever heard. ci Monumental Henry Fonda in command of the Amei forces, contributes a good deal of posing for M Rushmore, while subordinate Heston seems to sustained a hernia from dragging his Ben Hur persona abogt. Perhaps he's simply showing his strain at the subplot involving his Ken-doll son (Edward Albert), who's the enamored of a Japanese girl, a gambit I thought "Love Is A Many-Splendored Thing" had killed ages ago. In total Glenn Ford, Cliff Robertson, James Coburn Robert Mitchum, and Robert Wagner are on screen for perhaps five minutes. Even more unforgivable is the treatment afforded Toshiro Mifune, the greatest actor in Japanese cinema; only very careful watching revealed that his performance seemed so ponderous mostly because narrator and cartoon-voice Paul Frees had dubbed in Mifune's Charlie Byrd Trio a calmness in jazz — — Prodigal Sun �I Our Weekly Reader Friendly Fire, C.D.B.

What is all accessible dozen American poetry dealing with Vietnam can be read easily in a weekend or two.

Fiction aside, there is a mass of expository writing about the Vietnam war available, some of it quite good. There are volumes of reportage (including that of John Steinbeck, .Mary McCarthy, Susan Sontag, William Eastlake and other literary war tourists), political and military memoirs, commentaries, popular histories, and there are even memorable examples of standard war copy (by Eric Pace, Peter Arnett, and others). In fact, Vietnam might not be remembered for the fiction it occasioned, but instead it might represent, as David Halberstam once told me, a renaissance of expository prose. subtitled ■"a work of Enter Friendly Fire, non-fiction," by literary critic and novelist C.D.B. Bryan. It is the latest addition to the Vietnam shelf and the first attempt I know of to report the war's effect on ordinary people at home. If the Vietnam war, as Leslie Fiedler once put it, was fought exclusively by our servants, it has so far been written about by our gentlemen and ladies with the exception of a few soldier-novelists for the purpose of extolling the special nobility created by any war, the nobility of brave men. Friendly Fire, on the other hand, is an attempt to examine the private and ordinary grief felt by one set of parents whose son died an inglorious accidental death in Vietnam, killed by "friendly fire," that is, killed by allied forces. (There is another way the military puts this, which perhaps better illustrates my point: such a death is a — — — — "misadventure.") even The basic premise of the book is worthy compelling: it is time to glimpse into an ordinary American household, preferably in the representatively conservative midwest, and examine in the fullest possible way one son's death in Vietnam and its effect on his family. There is in this idea the possibility for a great, even momentous, story; one well told tragedy, after all, can be a type for all tragedies; one death in Vietnam, related fully enough, can make a reader feel t+ie weight of all. Two factors unfortunately prevent C.D.B. Bryan from ever turning the instrument of this idea to good use: first, he is a cool, facile, and utterly unauthentic writer, whose swirls of colorful adjectives and dexterous adverbs conceal a mere breeze of real talent; and second, Bryan is, was, and always will be an alien in the midwest, except for those parts of it controlled by the Iowa Writer's Workshop. When Truman Capote hummed into Kansas in his silver Jaguar XKE to write a book about a bizzare murder, he was able to make himself temporarily less interesting than the story at hand; Bryan can't. objects of this promising failure of a The subjects book are Peg and Gene Mullen of La Porte City, Iowa, whose 25-year-old son Michael was killed by friendly artillery fire in Vietnam. Solid and well-liked members of this farming community, the Mullens exhibited the standard thoughtlessness about American involvement in Indochina before their son died there. After his body was flown home, the Mullens began collecting documents and gathering testimonies to find out exactly how Michael died. In the beginning these gestures for information were a solace for the Mullens; but before long, after being insulted and frustrated by the military bureaucracy, these gestures took on the lineaments of anger, desperation, even rage. The Mullens put an ad in the Des Moines Register two months after their son's death. It was simply one for each of composed: a brief text and 715 crosses including to Michael. Vietnam, the lowans die in Understandably, the oddity of this ad in the heart of middle America created something of a stir, but it was not until six months later that Bryan heard of it, and six months more before he decided to do a magazine piece. Once in Iowa, Bryan realized two things:.there was a bigger story here than he thought; and here was a chance to use everything he had previously learned and taught at the Writer's Workshop. Many of the scenes in the book involving the. Mullens naturally took place well before he was present; therefore it was necessary for him to imaginatively reconstruct these events. He does this with a singular flair for artifice, giving much of Friendly Fire the fervid air of a first novel. For instance, he imagines these Iowa neighbors at Michael's funeral: The men wearing faded bjb overalls, ankle-high workboots, dayglo orange earflapped vinyl caps, their mellow, weathered faces creased with sorrow, approached Gene shyly, hesitantly. Gently they touched him on the shoulder, laid their calloused hands almost tenderly across his back. Their wives, in woolen slacks and heavy hand-knit cardigans, brought baskets of food . . . Art early chapter relates the history of the Mullens in Iowa (five generations) in order to deepen the effect and significance of Michael's death. Aside from doing this, of course, such a chapter is the perfect opportunity for a trained writer to exercise his command of the sentimental and pastoral literary conventions which have plagued the West since it was invented by the east: In the fall the winds would come and coo / the cornstalks. The months of jarring and preserving, of grinding flour and tanning hides would be upon them. John Dobshire, out gathering wood along the banks of the Cedar River, would look up at'the great skeins of duck and geese, watch them form their August Vs and beat their way south. The corn would be harvested, the wheat gathered and threshed. The grouse would call, - the incredible swarms of passenger pigeons (whose numbers then could be measured only by square miles) would whir! and scatter like an old lady's handwriting, gather again, then flash away. The buffalo would pass, fewer and fewer with each succeeding year. The first snow would fall, and at night, looking out their cabin window, the Dobshires might see the lantern of a far-off wagon glowing as brightly as a distant boat across a glaze of frozen water, like some ephemera voyager upon a tideless sea. But such innocent displays of selfishness and disproportion are riot the real problem with Friendly Fire. I can, sit through such ardent displays of useless talent as well as anyone can. No, the real problem with this book is finally not literary at all. It is moral. Friendly Fire, after all, starts out very clearly as an attempt to vindicate the loss the Mullens felt, to show how the Vietnam war was a patchwork of accidents and useless death, and (perhaps) to make the Mullens articulate when they were not, in an effort to get at the final mystery of their son's death. To these ends Bryan puts his skills as an investigator and interviewer to work, leading him to confrontations with all the principals involved on the same hilltop on the night Michael was mysteriously killed. The primary and was with Michael's representative confrontation —continued on page 8 / — Tearjerker — — - — Prodigal Sun Other Side of the Mountain by Amira Lapidot Spectrum Arts Staff There are stupid, downright bad tear-jerkers, good tear-jerkers, and excellent tear-jerkers; The Other Side of the Mountain is an excellent one. The movie stars two fantastic actors, Marilyn Hassett and Beau Bridges. Aside from the fact that the basic story is true, both these actors, playing Jill Kinmont and boyfriend Dick Buek respectively, bring the characters to a magnificent reality. Basically, the story concerns Jill Kinmont, a great skier who would have made it to the 1956 Olympics if her luck hadn't run out when she almost died in a skiing accident. Marilyn Hassett is as good on the slopes as in the wheelchair. The movie is really touching, both as a love story and as a portrayal of a quadraplegic trying to get back to “normalcy." The movie is set up as a flashback but the fact that the audience knows what to expect only heightens the excitement at the moment of the accident. The entire audience sat at the edge of its seats, anxiously awaiting this scene — Stunning slopes The scenery is stunning, from the initial view of snow-capped mountains and a lush green valley below. The precipitousness of the ski slopes would make any non-skier swear never to try it; yet the skiers in the movie manage the curves and obstacles smoothly and gracefully. Unlike Love Story, in which "love is never having to say you're sorry," The Other Side of the Mountain is realistic, enjoyable, and bearable for those boyfriends who are cajoled by their girlfriends into seeing it. Nor is it like a soap-opera, in which melodrama sickens the very souls of sensible watchers; it is a true story, maybe slightly exaggerated for effect, of a young woman who has an unbelievable run of bad luck which extends to those who are close to her. The movie's main emphasis, however, is not on luck (good or bad) and how it affects a certain life, but on how Jill Kinmount surpassed her handicap and suffering, and made herself into something in spite of her useless body. It is a success story on a human, rather than a super human, scale. It is filled with touching scenes that anybody with sensitivity and feelings can relate to; even non-skiers can comprehend Jill's love of the sport and her determination, while in the hospital, to walk again. I highly recommend this movie just don't forget the Kleenex when you go.

Titled "The Making and Understanding of Film and Media," the series of events will include a wide variety of conferences, fourteen credit-bearing courses, fourteen public lectures, the screening of five different programs of American film classics, a six-week Film/Media Workshop, and (possibly the essence of the whole program) a "Visiting Mediamakers and Theorists" series. "This summer's program will have a creative emphasis, and is planned to satisfy several needs," according to Dr. Gerald O'Grady, director of both the Media Center and Media Study/Buffalo. With over 100 visiting lecturers invited, the Center hopes to involve creative artists in the teaching process. This could be seen as a breeding ground for new professors, since the Center for Media Study hopes to screen a wide variety of independent and "personal" filmmakers to teach courses that may be available in the fall. By bringing fine media arts to Buffalo, Dr. O'Grady hopes to get students, visiting students,, and the public involved in.this summer's program. He would also like to Zodiaque performers outdo everyone else stress that "it's all free," with respect to University activities. Uniqueness pays The program is supported by a grant from the Exxon Corporation and a $15,000 endowment from the Public country supported by the National Endowment for the Arts.

'The Summer Institute" was designed for "the purpose of improving standards of film 'and media study in schools and colleges and at institutions engaged in regional media development." (This and other unattributed quotes are taken from the Center's Summer Institute brochure.) By the scheduling of over 250 films, Dr. O'Grady hopes "to reach as many people as possible on and off campus." The films will revolve around five different themes to honor American film.

Interweaving disciplines seems to be a upon themselves only in the past few years have we seen the likes of brand new genre "modern ballet" and "modern jazz.” The intention is fine and, at best, can be highly innovative. However, this mixing of the disciplines does not work when there is an inbalance of talent among the companies, which was precisely the problem of Gbnce and Friends, which was performed on Saturday. The concert featured the Zodiaque Company, sponsored by SUNY at Buffalo, Ginger Burke's RA Ballet and Am-Dance in Concert. Unfortunately, the time allotted each company was in no way proportional to the amount of talent displayed. The evening dragged on and on, as Am-Dance strutted their stuff, not exactly too eye-pleasingly. Am-Dance has the distinction of being the first tap and jazz company to be founded in the United States since 1952. Hopefully, it will not be the last, for if the company is the sole survivor of those dance forms, neither jazz nor tap will be remembered too page 10— Steve Stills and Neil Young are back together, and will be appearing at the Niagara Falls Convention Center on none other than the 4th of July, Niagara '1 Frontier's Bison-tennial.

Am-Dance performs like a high school marching band a little bit too cute, a little too brass, and way too rigid. The precision of each movement, and exactness of the costumes left little room for the imagination. With absolutely no shame, it blasphemed the music of Gershwin, as it imitated dance of the twenties. Of course, it is no sin to skim the past, but if there is no form of interpretation, the act becomes a severe form of regression, if not outright theft. The company performed six dances to the music of Gershwin at the beginning of the concert (if you closed your eyes, the music was really enjoyable), rested while Zodiaque and the RA Ballet really danced, and then ended the concert with a banged-up guided tour of this century, as they danced to The Charleston, Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy, Rock Around the Clock and Space Odyssey in one medley. Not only did they destroy our past and present, but they also severely jeopardized our future as they sashayed to the Lord'd Prayer. But enough of that.

This collection of eight normally unavailable films will be shown in 35mm gauge at the Norton Conference Theater. Again, this will be held in conjunction with the UUAB Film Committee and admission will be charged. Of particular interest in this series are the two-color Technicolor Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933), the newly reconstructed Foolish Wives (1922), and Frank Capra's controversial American Madness (1932). The fourth series, "Low Doings in High Society," is strictly light entertainment. These events are free, and will be held at Page ten . from Blues for Allah, "The Music Never, dozen or so other percussionists, plus the Stopped." From a reactionary point of everpresent Garcia. view, this might not seem like such a tremendous opening, but to those around More than Grateful When the Defed finally returned to the me there was that old flash of something really good about to happen. It was more stage, the crowd was all set to go, and evident Yjn the next song, "Brown Eyed remained standing to prove it. Without a Woman," with Garcia rocking back and doubt, the New York area is populated forth, playing powerful chords, as he with the most devoted Dead fans anywhere hadn't the other nights. Phil Lesh was in the world. They clapped and screamed thumping away louder and louder, and the and danced and at no point acted laid drummers. Bill and Micky, were having back. And no one had any reason to; the small percussion wars. It was evident that set was filled with many treats. There was a "Cosmic Charlie," a fast "Promised Land" the band was getting serious. The entire first set was an excellent one, and a medley of the band's new disco highlighted by "Cassidy," a rousing version Of "Dancing In The Streets" with "Tennessee Jed," and "Crazy Fingers," the Chuck Berry tune "Around and Around." And the joint was jumping! A split-second after the note that ended the song, Garcia launched injo a fiery "Going Down The Road Feeling Bad." At this point the energy level of the band was at a climax from which their music was to continue down to the final notes of the night. I'd like to think that this outburst was the band's way of saying thanks to the New York chapter of Dead Heads for all their financial and spiritual support. These people would be appreciated by any band in the world. As Donna sat down for air, the Dead said goodbye with a long and jumping "One More Saturday Night," and indeed it was. As the last crescendo came to a halt, I confessed to myself I was glad I had the luck not to sell my ticket as I had originally planned. I thought the last set had been one of the most encouraging I had seen on the tour so far. And so must have everyone else, because the applause did not cease. I was pessimistic about an encore due to the high quality of the previous music, and as the bright hall lights went on, I thought my suspicions were confirmed. I shot through the crowd hoping to avoid the pushing, and kept wondering as I was leaving how long the rest of the people would stay, until they realized like in the song, "the band was packed and gone." And the music played the band Much to my surprise, as I reached humid Monroe Street, there was a roar from within the hall. The Dead freaks’ dedication and persistence had been rewarded. Some of the security men weren't letting people back in, but my friend and I were lucky enough to find an unguarded gate. As the drummers started to pound out the beat to "Not Fade Away," I had just finished twisting through a batch of bodies in the center aisle around the tenth row. The song lasted fifteen minutes, and they couldn't have chosen a better one to play. On the way to my car I could only think of three things; that it was good to know that when they wanted to, the Dead could still play quite well together, that it was worth every second of my time to have come that night,-and that there is truly nothing tike a GratefulDead concert. —continued from page 9— ... the Allentown Community Center starting July 9, with the Marx Brothers in Room Service and ending August 13 with the Howard Hawks classic Twentieth Century.

Rubin Special Features Editor Jimmy Carter knew full well that he would be the Democratic presidential nominee after he respectably in performed California, Ohio, and New Jersey on June 8. However, begin at running for inexperienced president, he did not know how to go about choosing a running mate. He asked his wife Rosalynn for help, but she had no ideas. He asked his campaign manager Hamilton Jordan, but he didn’t know what to do. He thought about calling his good buddy George Wallace or, even Richartl tips, but some Nixon for somehow he didn’t think they could help him either. Even God was stumped on this one. Sure, the Lord can move mountains, work in mysterious ways, and change the course of mighty rivers, but he never entered a presidential primary. With convention time approaching, Carter knew he had to do something. So he drew up a list of fourteen potential candidates for America’s number two job. Then, using bicentennial stamps, he sent to each name on the list a questionnaire.

California Governor Jerry Brown said that he’d always wanted to camp out on the White House lawn, and that since Vice don’t Presidents do much anyhow, he’d have more time to meditate. But Carter rejected Brown because he felt that a Carter-Brown ticket would imply mystery in givernment. Senator Frank Church wrote that his fairly liberal tendencies Carter’s complement would conservatism, giving the ticket broader appeal. But Carter felt that he’s be best off Separating Church and state. Morris Udall said that there wefe some big environmental projects he w.ould like to “sink his teeth into” and that as Vice President, he could really do something toward that end. Carter did not like Uriah's choice of words. Through it all, of course, Carter made no substantial statements about who he would finally nominate, and the speculation continued right on through to the Democratic National Convention in New York just as he planned. Carter was nominated at Madison Square Garden amidst plenty of hoopla, and then it was time for the fateful announcement. “Unfortunately,” Carter began, “my top choice for the position of Vice President is not available.” At that moment Carter lifted his skyward, reverently. head “However there is a man here oh earth who is second only to the Lord himself,” he continued. “I know that he will spread my word across the country, and with his more 1 see a, better, help, prosperous America. He is dedicated, well known and well liked, and although he is an outsider just as I am, I know that together we can win the November election, and start rebuilding America. Therefore, I nominate for the office of Vice President of the United States, Billy Graham.” Stunned for a mement, the crowd was hushed until it became clear that Carter’s move was a stroke of genius. With the crucial vote now well in hand. Carter and Graham eased into the White House where President Carter’s first official act was to boost peanut subsidies 50 percent. As for Vice President Graham, his first order was to banish ,the Reverend Sun Myung Moon from the United States, because, after all, who needs competition?

The letter requested that utmost secrecy be maintained, and accordingly, it was not signed the Georgian personally. by Instead, a reprint of two lips and 32 huge teeth in the shape of a grin was affixed to each letter. When Carter told Rosalynn what he’d done, she turned a pale shade of green and yelled, “That’s no way to run a dad-blamed Jimmy. What in campaign, tarnation do you think yer doin’?” “It’s obvious,” replied Carter, coyly. He explained that it doesn’t matter who runs for Vice President, but that good publicity is always beneficial. By asking for secrecy, Carter knew that the story would leak in three days, gave no and as long as indication as to who his choice would actually be, the speculation by the press would be unending.

The covers are torn off the books and returned to' the for credit. The publisher percentage of books destroyed each semester is small compared to the number in stock, Bookstore officials said. But they could not provide an exact figure. The practice of stripping books and returning only the covers to the publishers for credit is common, especially among widely sold popular books. However, the the policy destroying of remainder of the books, which are mostly in excellent condition, is unusual, according to spokesmen from area bookstores. Thelma Streesack, book buyer, said the policy is carried out on publishers’ orders. She did not policy know this where originated, however, and could not cite any source where publishers state explicitly that the Friday, 18 June 1976 State University of New York at Buffalo Vol. 27, No. 3 books may not be donated or given away instead of destroyed. Once stripped from the books, the covers are mailed back to the publishing company. Due to high costs in reprocessing returned books, some companies prefer to receive only the front covers or, in the' case of' 1 newspapers or journals, the title page. This is practiced primarily with popular pocket books, which one „ publishing company employee referred to as “the bread and butter of the industry.” This generally includes “the pulp,” poorer quality books, as opposed to more expensive and larger “trade” paperbacks. Bookstore Manager Thomas Moore said bookstore officials sign a notice certifying that the cover has been cut off and the book destroyed in keeping with a policy by “dictated the publisher.” This is the common practice, he said. Some hardcovers are stripped too, Moore added. However, representatives from five major New York paperback book publishers contacted by The Spectrum said their only concern is that these stripped books do not end up for sale. A spokesman from Avon Publishing Company cited specifically by Moore as among those requiring a signed statement that the books have been destroyed, declared in an interview that no such certification of destruction is required. Similarly, an official at New Library, American another by company Moore, cited explained that “once a front cover has been stripped and sent in for credit, a manager or store owner has several alternatives. He can destroy the books, or he can donate them. Often they will be given to prisons, hospitals or charitable organizations. Our only stipulation is that they may not be sold.” Although these alternatives Library New Anierican exist. issues a “directive” requesting that books be destroyed. This is a contract or binding not agreement, just a policy that serves to “close out the area of abuse” (namely, resale). It is a discretionary matter, the New American spokesman' indicated, entirely up to the owner or manager of the bookstore. An informal survey of eight area bookstores by The Spectrum found most of the surveyed stores preferred other procedures while which are ordered are then shipped to the bookstore with freight costs prepaid by the publishing company.

Sub Board officials are now attempting to comply with the Medical School’s request so that the money for the supervisor can be reinstated in September. Howeer, members of the Board feel confident that the Clinic will remain open this summer, with examination sessions held once a week. Because summer business is at least 50 percent lighter than that of the normal academic year, Sub Board members claim that the Clinic will operate successfully in the next few months without the aid and direction of a supervisor. Yet, thesfe same members feel that a supervisor is essential to oversee the busier operations this fall. No program submitted The Medical School, which has supported the supervisor for the past two years, discontinued the position when it did not receive the academic justification it sought. In the past, academic justification has meant medical students would be present in the examination rooms during gynecological check-ups and involved in the consultation and classes. Donald Larson, Associate Vice President for Health Sciences, said that he spoke with Sub Board Health Care Division Director Al Campagna about the need for some type of academic justification, but apparently they weren’t able to come up with any program. “The Medical School can’t spend its money unless there are actual academic programs,” Larson said. This year’s supervisor, Pam Criscione, quit her position in May when she learned that she would not receive her $2000 summer salary. She was the only member of the Clinic to receive a full weekly salary, as opposed to its director who receives a semesterly stipend and its volunteers. Her responsibilities included; maintaining inventory supplies, insuring payment of the doctors at the Clinic, scheduling the volunteers and professionals, selecting educational materials for patients, and ensuring that lab materials are quickly processed. Indisputable necessity Larson claimed there are two elements to consider in a situation like this. First, he said the money could come from within the University, if the program was academically justified. Second, money is appropriated from New York State for Student Health Services. The Health Care Division Director provides a budget of this money to the various health centers, whereupon a University Advisory Committee, of which Larson is a member, makes recommendations about the budget. When asked whether he felt the Committee would suggest paying the supervisor’s salary with the state money, he said that there had been no appeal for the money thus far, and it “would be wrong for the Advisory Committee to jump in.” Although Crisciohe asserted that a supervisor was an “indisputable necessity,” she also said, “1 can understand their [the Medical School’s] position in view of their acute financial situation.” ‘The Medical School isn’t to blame in this thing,”.she siad. “It’s hard to justify the firing of a professor, while it still supports a supervisor at the Clinic.” Justification is detrimental According to Criscione, the Clinic never had any academic justification, although Larson insists that there was. Because medical students work in hospitals throughout Buffalo, Criscione feels the students would receive no extra benefits through observation. In addition, this justification would be detrimental to the Clinic, she said, because patients might feel uncomfortable under observation, and the Clinic could not afford to teach medical students because it would slow up itsoperatidns. The only reason she said she resigned her position was because she could not afford to work without a salary. “I’m very regretful about this whole thing,” she commented, adding that she hoped University women would not let the, Clinic collapse. Both Health Care Division Business Manager Barbara Pientka and Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller were optimistic that the supervisor’s salary would once again be picked up by the Medical School in the fall. Will remain open Pientka said that since Sub Board is in poor financial shape, and a Clinic supervisor is crucial to the operation (there are usually three or four clinics a week during the regular school year), some concessions would have to be made to justify the academic value of the Clinic. The supervisor would most likely have to teach classes, perhaps affiliated with the Medical School, while it was probable that medical students would observe. “They would only be women,” she said. Roller added that the Clinic would have to be a “real teaching place.” He said there might have to be certain changes which would “make it less attractive to a degree.” Meanwhile, the supply rOom of the Clinic will remain open daily beginning Monday, and gynecological examinations , and contraceptive distribution will begin within three weeks. College of Social Sciences to remain The College’s Council, the governing body of the Collegiate passed System, a resolution “the Thursday supporting continued existence of Social Sciences College.” The resolution was a response to the minority report of the Colleges Charter (CCRC), Review Committee which recommended the College be disolved, and a report to President Robert Ketter from Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg, which upheld much of the criticism offered in the report. The review committee majority report recommended continuation of the College until January 1977, if the College re-forms with new leadership and a new program. The council resolution was passed by a vote of eight to two, with two abstentions. Haynie, Tolstoy Charlie representative, College said “political repression” on campus included attempts to get rid of all Marxists. “Social Sciences College has been on the front lines all year, and if the Administration gets rid of them, the cutting edge of the Administration will be that much closer to all of us.” The motion supports the right of all Colleges to complete their charters and notes that this is the sentiment of the review committee majority report. “We do not support changes in Social Sciences College or in any College which would violate the full participation of staff, students and faculty in the governance ojF or ehtniriate College the instructors drawn from the community,” it stated. The motion adds that the changes would “contradict the concept of the Colleges as they were formulated from their inception.” The motion also calls for out revisions in a carrying reasonable, democractic manner, and allowing sufficient time for their implementation. Lastlyj it said that channels for discussion and negotiation should be set up immediately with the Chartering Committee. t , Representatives at the meeting also expressed fears that similar actions would be taken against them by the administration, in attempts to do away with all the Colleges, a spokesman said. Executive Vice President (and acting University President) Albert Somit said the Committee had done a “very scrupulous. Irving Spitzberg impartial, detailed study” of Social Sciences College. Somit also said he is convinced that this report will follow the usual pattern; copies have already been sent to senior officers concerned with the report and their replies have been solicited, and all pertinent information will be collected and correlated by the president’s office. Then the report will be released, he added. Somit stated that all documents are expected to have been received within the next few days, and action should be taken next week. “It is very unfortunate that the impartiality of the Committee has been questioned,” Somit said. Veterans’ benefits sharply decreased Approximately 3000 veterans attending this University have lost educational benefits provided under the G.I. Bill because the University’s “approved” status has been revoked by the Veterans Administration (VA). Earlier this year VA began enforcing a 20-year old regulation requfring colleges and universities to maintain records of the number of veterans attending their institution, any changes in their credit hours or addresses, and to report them within 30 days of the beginning of the semester. . At that time, this University’s Veterans Coordinator Clarence F. Dye stated that the regulation could not be met. The drop-add period here is three to four weeks, with an additional wait of at least a week for class lists. At this University the Office of Admissions and Records cannot provide the necessary information in the allotted time, he explained. Stricter a ilication Additionally, VA has modified its regulations to gain a greater say in what shall be considered “satisfactory progress” by a veteran tpward his degree, according to Ed Serba, Chairman of the Western New York Concerned Veterans Coalition. (See Serba’s assessment of the many difficulties facing the Vietnam veteran on today’s editorial page.) Dye said V.A’s interference would infringe on the right of the University to administer its own academic .programs. Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti added that any student allowed to continue in this University has met the required standard for progress and such standards should be-left up to the discretion of the University. Sefba said the current problem stems from VA’s desire to strictly apply its laws concerning veteran eligibility. Last year a great deal of controversy arose over overpayments totalling several million dollars to ineligible veterans. Faced with substantial cutbacks in its funding, the VA sought to reduce spending and exert greater control over the benefits being disbursed. Additional difficulty faces veteran’s who wish to transfer to another institution with “approved” status because of 4 another VA technicality which does not allow vets to transfer more than twice and still receive educational benefits. Veterans who have already done this and are now at this University face complete loss of benefits. Friday, 18 June 1976 . The Spectrum . Page three �Guest Opinion EditPrial A terrible waste The University Bookstore's policy of destroying overstocked and unsold books is carried out as a convenience. Stripping the covers and returning them to the publishers for credit is a legitimate business practice. But dumping them by the bagful is as needless and wasteful as ’ , . . ' . it is ridiculous. sVnall horrors from public many conceals large university A scrutiny. The quiet, almost invisible fashion in which the books are dropped into the receptacle behind Norton Hall, and the reluctance of the Bookstore officials to discuss it, betrays an embarassing failure of imagination, if not an admission of guilt. If the simple destruction of books is not the policy’s goal, the end result is certainly the same, and ? deserves to be questioned on those grounds. There are an ample number of creative alternatives. Of the three separate retail outlets of Walden Books, each indicated that it frequently donated stripped books to individual employees, charities, or local hospitals. For obvious reasons, those who receive the donated books are only too happy to handle the shipping themselves. Similarly, two employees from Buffalo Textbook at University Plaza said stripped books are thrown in a big bin in front of the store where people may take them for free. University Bookstore Manager Thomas Moore‘s insistence that the books are destroyed on publishers orders appears to be more rationalization than reality. Publishers contacted in New York indicated that they either had no concern with what happens to unsold only books, as long as they are not put on sale again, or that they any said there was destroyed. publisher No preferred that the books be to unsold books. way they could control what happened Although the majority of books destroyed are paperbacks, and although the numbers may be small compared to the size of the inventory, virtually all books are expensive, and certainly each one is a precious educational commodity. We strongly urge the bookstore management to find some better way of disposing unsold, stripped books. Other bookstores have showen us better ways. A book is a terrible thing to waste. SASU and Jackalone Former Student Association President Frank Jackalone's election as president of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) is fortunate for all SUNV students. Jackalone has shown himself to be perhaps the most competent and best prepared advocate of student rights we have seen in past years. But the challenge he faces in taking over the leadership,of SASU is great. SASU has been declining steadily in quality, often finding itself bogged down in procedural and technical matters. These cases have concerned the seating of SASU delegations, restrictions on Executive Committee membership, and, symptomatically, payment of dues by member schools. In the past academic year, at least three member schools have dropped out, and others are questioning the value of the organization. This, to an extent, is understandable in view of the personal bickering that has occured while the SUNY budget was drastically cut and tuition increased. But the crisis facing SUNY only points out the need for a strong statewide student lobby, free from internal strife, which can devote itself to improving the condition of SUNY, and ensure that the students' voice is informed, intelligent, and forceful. This must certainly be Jackalone's. goal. In this we wish him good luck.

Please let me clarify matters, since I would never accuse President Ketter of responsibility for a general condition of American universities that existed before he and 1 were born! Universities are authoritarian structures. Their chancellors and presidents are appointed by boards of trustees, councils, or special committees representing community elite groups, regional elite, corporate interests, business and industry, etc. They are not elected, and they serve at the pleasure of those who appoint them. Lesser administrative personnel, faculty senates, and standing and special committees serve at the chief’s pleasure and are advisory, not legislative. The chief may also advise his superiors, but he is not free to run his unit according to his own design. For more information, I recommend the new book by Samuel Bowles and Herbert Gintis, Schooling in Capitalist America (New York: Basic Books, 1976).

This contradiction is impossible to resolve, and no amount of “reform” can bring about its realization. This is not a quantitative issue of giving a little more here and taking a little more there; it is qualitative. That is, only a qualitative change in the nature of the institution will bring it about. Can an authoritarian, elitist educational structure which is geared to the production of workers on all levels, who are required to internalize or submit to the “discipline” of the working place (or be fired) become a democracy? I submit that if it did, its garduates would not be able easily to hold down jobs for which they had not been prepared. Who would tolerate democracy, from kindergarten to graduate school, if education equipped people to change things? Only the people! It is a pity that our ideology obscures the real nature of the institution we are in for so many of us. We all should work harder to understand the nature and limitations of our workplace. William W.

Prodigal Sun �'June in Buffalo'festival produces quality music by L.H. Brokoff Spectrum Music Staff There will be periods when some of us will not be able to attend nor enjoy evenings of new musics but here and now we have the fortune of the "June in Buffalo" festival. It presents night after night quality performances and a variety of events. This past week started with "Miss Simpson's Parlor, 1905," Monday (June 7) night's audience entered, a turn of the century parlor and were delighted by soprano Winifred Simpson and her illustrious pianist, Professor Yvar Mikhashoff. "Does this belong on a new music festival?" The songs and repartee were dug out of an old attic, but dusted off meticulously and if the language seemed old, the form was certainly new theater, total! Tuesday night belonged to the four sonatas for violin and piano of Charles Ives. A suburban audience hearing an Ives' Symphony by the Buffalo Philharmonic equates him with "that modern music," but this week he is the tradition. Paul Zukpfsky was very much in control, his violin playing lyrical, smooth and occasionally exiciting. f was impressed with the piano (more than accompaniment) playing of Gilvert Kalish; it was sometimes strong and aggressive, overshadowing/overpowering the violin. Wednesday evening was devoted to the music of University of Buffalo music professor Lejaren Hiller. I have always enjoyed Dr. Hiller's music be it computer, electronic or acoustical, there always seems to be that witty palyfulness about it. This concert was no exception. His detailed program notes gave the embarrassingly small audience insight into his present research of computer-generated music ("Algorithms") and his more personal choices ("Malta for Tuba and Tape" and "Portfolio for Diverse Performers and Tape"). The Creative Associates were not in their finest hour that evening; a missed cue in the first piece caused a restart and set an uncomfortable attitude on and off stage. — — —. Manes plays Schonberg Thursday was to be all Pierre Boulez night (his three piano sonatas), but his first piano sonata was replaced with solo piano pieces of Schonberg, Op. 11, and Webern, Op. 27, played by Stephen Manes.

Much excitement unfortunately hinged on whether or not Mr. Kubera's page, turner would help or hinder the performance. The force of the evening could only be reposed by Friday night with Steve Reich and Musicians. Reich was the composer in residence all week, most of which explaining and rehearsing his music is based on repeating patterns falling in and out of phase with themselves or other constants. The result is a texture (different in each piece) allowing the — listener to find/look for minute changes within, or sense tension until a safe return, or relax and enjoy. On the program were; "Clapping Music" for two hand clappers; "Piano Phase" for two pianos 1967); (Reich's first instrumental phase piece "Drumming" part 3 for four glockenspiels and piccolo; "Music for Pieces of Wood" for five tuned claves; and a tape recording of the premiere of his newest piece, "Music of 18 Musicians.'

"Love Song" from Tumbleweed Connection Do you remember that tender ballad from Elton John's most Creative album? Incisive, but lovingly touching, "Love Song" was penned by Leslie Duncan, who now has lent her talents to the solo effort. Moon Bathing. A serious but sweet release. Moon Bathing is an exhibition of a talent that treats the ear with a striking similarity to Olivia Newton-John. Duncan is better than Olivia in that she writes her own material, which is magnificent in its objective correlation to her listening audience. With Duncan one doesn't feel the candy store, pop or country rock sounds that are indigenous to Olivia's style. Olivia is great at what she does but when it comes to a final judgment, you know she isn't relating to you, the listener. In writing her own soft rock material, Lesley Duncan succeeds in making the audience feel as if she is actually singing to you and not at you. The analogy to Olivia seems an awfully shrewd concept to me. I've often wondered why a producer, any producer, hadn't sought to reap the Olivia gold mine. Well it seems someone has, either by accident or contrivance, and at the risk of souhding Lesley-Olivia redundant another perfect as as Olivia Lesley isn't analogy: (thank God) in the realm of vocal range, since her semi-soprano voice stops its upward climb at a few points during Moon — - "Oh it's fine to fee/ this free Just let me keep this much A touch of sanity.

And what a tradition it is. Southside Johnny grooves to his lifestyle and / Don't Want To Go Home reflects his friendly style of music to the world. r As Bruce Springsteen tells it in .the liner notes, Southside Johnny is a weird personality who can sing and play the blues. His “general conversation consists of insulting everyone within 50 feet.” Those words cannot tell the whole story of Southside Johnny; his life is told in his music. It's an E Street kind of beat that relates to dark bars, wild laughter, and sticky, hot-summer-night fun. This fantastic beat may soon be lost forever a cardinal reason for this album's production — premise. I first heard Southside Johnny a couple of weeks back when the local progressive to broadcast a live concert from Asbury Park. The reception and engineering made the concert sound like mud, but one could gather that the audience was having a great time and Southside Johnny was playing his heart FM station decided out. So now f've got the Southside Johnny album right in my grubby, ruddy, ready little paws, and the artist’s transgression from Hersey live to studio album gives the lift that flaunts the listener a street-life syncopation so reminiscent t»f except it's livlier. Southside Springsteen Johnny interprets music with a rhythm that peits the senses with a feeling that is nightclub and professionally flowing enough to produce a mindful matrix that is the best of both those worlds. The music,is arranged in such a way that ong can conceive the pathos Johnny is trying to convey via vocal tone. The life in Asbury Park must. be somewhat shoddy, and I must venture to say boring, and one must turn to ijiusic as an escape. Such music has — " Page eight The Spectrum .

Her sad but complements the playing strengthened mood. Lesley learns the lesson of freedom in "Wooden Spoon," and relates philosophy that is not overruling but understood by the audience. The song's arrangement is disconcerting in trying to keep up with Lesley's tale of maturing in life and wisdom while Lesley progresses through a certain stage in her life a lotid synthesizer note travels from one speaker to another spoiling the song's tempo. Her backup group is well-balanced but somewhere in the engineering or production backing strings, synthesizers, and drums overpower the fine voice of Lesley Duncan. a cold night the earth's in pain But in the firelight I'll start again." No one could offer you more in lyrics filming with simple truth as espoused in me above quoted words from my favorite aloDw cut, "Rocking Chair." Through the unpretentious words, there flies a haunting a pleasing melody. The similes she puts forth stir the listener to thought and leaves him deeply pondering the power of the gentle songstress. "Rocking Chair" is special in that it doesn't display Lesley Duncan, the "hooker" in profusion. By this I mean the tiresome "hooker" that contrives a melody of a few notes and repeats those notes at least ten times in succession through the course of a song. A few songs on the album reveal this horrid phenomenon and would be unbearable in their redundancy save for Lesley's voice. At first I was a trifle apprehensive in reviewing this album. It seemed that another artist was about to jump upon the success of the E-lton John bandwagon and superstardom's smother,.. me in Further, as I saw Lesley was recotcTing on Elton's label I almost lost all hope. But the soft rock music and lyric within Moon Bathing put that unwarranted conclusion to' rest. I usually fall in live about once a week and, face it, folks, this week it's with Lesley Duncan. I'm sure you'll feet the same if you. purchase Lesely's album. "Do you know what I mean, have your eyes really seen?" Harold Goldberg commercialism. — with the vibraphone played by Pierre Moerlen. Pierre Moerlen is the group's drummer. His grace and dexterity are fantastic, conjuring up images of Bill Bruford and Mick Fleetwood while still maintaining a unique identity; he could easily put such contemporaries as Alan White and Carl Palmer to shame. As if this weren't enough, he has also written one of the album's best songs: the intricate, beautiful "Mandrake." As a bassist, Mike Hewlett is more than adequate, which is fine since Gong does not rely too heavily on bass. He less adequate at writing lyrics; they tend to be shallow and trivial. Fortunately, though, Gong does not concentrate on lyrics, either. Patrice Lemoine is a new addition to the are usually good and add to the jazz like group. His keyboard playing is reminiscent flavor of the album (unless, he breaks for of the Chick Corea, but he is so good at it too long). Malherbe does not stick that it is worth listening to anyway. He completely to jazz-rock, but brings in utilizes synthesizers sparingly, something oriental and Spanish motifs which give that should be very much to his credit. Shamal some welcome variety without Shamal is a very straightforward album breaking its continuity. which lacks most of the weirdness that Much of the percussion is handled by used to be the band's trademark.

Every ounce of energy the a,rtist has is put into his music it turns out well since there is nothing else — to do. Johnny's spirit is in the music which covers years of hard and struggling city life. The R&B flavor that permeates the album's texture is a treasure found especially in the Springsteen remake, "You Mean So Much To Me." Johnny's rough, moving voice combines with the softly raucous Ronnie Spector to yield a funk that is better than Springsteen's. The piano plunks on a snack of notes while the horn section is nourished by pure facile energy. I hold an imaginary shot glass of gin in my hand while Southside provides the tonic. It's hard to believe that everyone is so together on this album; throughout "I Don't Want To Go Home" there is the pleasing ramification that every band member knows his place and no one ever, ever oversteps his designated musical boundary. There is comedy in the angry sadness that pierces the heart when one knows that Johnny's girl has been cheating on him; the song is "How Come You Treat Me So Bad" and showcases a Gascoigne-like joy in grief. Another Springsteen remake is "The Fever"; as powerful waves of music filter through the speakers there is a turgid raunch to Johnny's vocals that somehow produces a crisply clear tone. "I Don't Want To Go Home's" title track shows how horny Southside can be by this I mean that the trumpets and trombones seem to breeze their way through tpe song like a stiff summer wind on a hot, humid day. And that's what Southside Johnny does; they flow high above much of the rock schlock that my ears are constantly bombarded with. The effort is lilting and glowing with the music of an area that is destined to become as classic as Chicago's blues. Make your house into a raunchy nite-club, gather 'round the phonograph and get your little bod high on the music of Southside Johnny and the Asbury Jukes. -Harold Goldberg — Prodigal Sun �The class of ’26 celebrates by line Nussbaum Spectrum St'aff Writer The class of '26 rediscovered the grounds of the UB cantpus last Friday, celebrating its 50th reunion with roast beef and sherry a la food service. Thrity-five members of the class, along with 56 members of previous classes, gathered in the Ellicott Complex, some seeing each other for the first time in fifty years The reunion began at 10 a.m. in the Spaulding dining area. Upon registering at the reception desk, alumni members received a “yearbook," especially prepared for the occasion which contained updated photographs of members of the class, along with capsule biographies attempting to bring alumni up to date with each other. A reception, lasting about three hours, allowed guests to mingle, talk and revive old memories. Joseph Pisa of the medical class of 1926 said that he has attended almost all the reunions.’ which are.held every five years per class, explaining that he maintains no other contact with the members of his class. When’ asked his impression of the Ellicott complex, he called it “fabulous')" Little interaction The alumni generally commented that since there was no campus in 1926. there was little student interaction. Pisa said that the only contact with other students earnest sporting events such as football or basketball games. Leo Marabella of the 1926 pharmacy class said that sports were “the only entertainment" available to UB students in 1926. For Benjamin Clark, a 1926 graduate in Arts and Letters, this was the first reunion he had ever attended. After leaving Buffalo, he did graduate work at M.I.T.. thus losing contact with many of his fellow classmates. He, too, mentioned football as the chief source of .entertainment because it was on campus. Despite popular belief, he claimed, "the twenties were not exactly roaring." There were also several members of pre-l l )26 classes present. Glenn DeGalleke ol' the I 1>I5 dentistry class was impressed with the hIIicon its fiftieth reunion Complex, although he said it looks as if “they just spent a hell of a lot of money." DeGalleke said that when he was a student here, “there was no campus, just a building." Students from outside Buffalo (DeGalleke came from Rochester) generally lived in boarding houses. He recalled paying five dollars a week for hjs. room and board. For entertainment, the DeGalleke said, “We out in hung GermtJn-Amcrican Brewing Company on Main Street." ‘Too busy working' Many of the people felt that since the medical school was located on High Street, the dentistry school on Goodrich Street, and the law building on Eagle Street (all in downtown Buffalo), students had little, if any. opportunity to meet students from other disciplines. In 1926 the Main Street campus was relatively undeveloped, and Rotary Field was the only place where a large number of student could gather socially. Freda D. Newbury, a graduate of the 1926 law class, said that even in the law school there was little political activity among the students because they were “loo busy working.” To her knowledge, most of the women in the law class were able to find jobs without difficulty. She personally never encountered any problems, as a woman, in her work. While in school, she worked in a law office, starling as a secretary, then working as a clerk, and eventually beginning her legal career in that office. Slje still maintains a practice, in Lancaster. New York. Benjamin Clark -Santos Myron McGuire Accessible to minorities Myron McGuire was the only black graduate of the class of 1926. though, he emphasized, not the first in the University. McGuire said the University never had any policy against blacks and added that “the University was very helpful in getting minorities through school." He said said there were no racial but high school quotas. Local high school students were given priority in admissions to the University over those'students from out of the area. McGuire received a full scholarship from the Douglass Club, a black women's organi/alion. which continued on paqe 11 —courtesy of University Archives Computerized welfare and Medicaid systems ? by Paul Dlugosz S/Hxtmm Staff Writer Two bills under consideration the State Legislature could result in computerized Welfare and Medicaid systems for New York State. The two Senate Bills, S-10525 and S-10526, were introduced by Republican W.T. Smith and are presently in the Senate Rules Committee. Two comparable bills the A-12233 Assembly, in (Welfare) and A-l 2234 (Medicaid) were proposed by Democrat George Miller and are presently in the Ways and Means Committee. Assemblyman William B. Hoyt (D.. Buffalo) has announced his strong support for both bills as a means of relieving the State’s fiscal crisis, citing "horror stories of abuse and fiscal nightmares that local governments are having with these programs." “The creation of a Welfare Management System and Medicaid Information System to administer eligibility and claims adjustment by computer could save the State and localities millions of tax dollars,” Hoyt emphasized, “as daily waste is estimated at one million dollars.” Welfare costs are presently shared by County, State and governments, Federal the by proportions varying according to the program. The two bills carry a total price tag of forty million dollars, with an estimated three years before they would be operational.

The Spectrum Page nine . ; �$ 1.87 an hour wage is legal by Curl Koehler Special to The Spectrum (This story was originally prepared for NSA Momentum, the newsletter of the National Student Association.) (CPS) What’s the starting wage for the student worker who checks out library books, answers the phone at the student union or cleans tables at the campus dining hall? At most schools, students receive the federally legislated minimum wage of $2.20 an hour. Yet student workers at some 540 schools earn only $1.87 an hour for the exact same jobs. What’s the catch? paid students receive the The poorly “subminimum” wage, a legally sanctioned pay policy for full-time students working up to 20 hours per week. Students at these schools forego 15 percent of the wages they would otherwise be legally entitled to simply because they are students. Schools aren’t the only ones who rely on discount student labor to get their work done. Retail and service establishments such as fast food chain restaurants along with agricultural employers are also authorized to paj£_>hili-time students the subminimum. — — — Abolition urged NOW OPEN application of subminimum wages than currently authorized would encourage employers to hire “less competent” young people to receive “on-the-job training," thus reducing the unemployment level for this group. These hopes have not panned out with the subminimum laws currently on the books, Rep. O’Hara told the subcommittee. Instead, the subminimum “has depressed wage standards, gutted the basic principle' of the Fair Labor Standards Acti and feathered the economic nest of the large and politically powerful fast-food chains.” O’Hara argued that youth unemployment cannot be solved by subminimum wages for students or anyone else. “Lower wages do not create more jobs,” he said. “Instead,” O’Hara added, “meaningful reductions in unemployment rates for American can only be achieved workers younger or older by the adoption and Vigorous implementation of national goals, policies and programs that promote a sound and expanding full employment economy.” — — Hash slingers Responding to an argument that those who pay the subminimum need an incentive to “teach” young and unskilled workers job skills, one opponent of the subminimum noted that the “great youth employers of this country” want “hash slingers and hamburger servers, not learners.” On the other hand, proponents of the subminimum have claimed that authority to pay reduced wages is necessary to prevent the loss of already existing student jobs. In response, NSL’s Pressman argued that students are hired, not out of some altruistic desire to give students money, but to do a job that needs to be done. “We must get away from the notion that paying a student a subminimum wage to work in a dining hall carting dishes or in a library stacking books is doing that student a favor,” Pressman said. NSA’s Gilbert noted that many of these 540 schools also paid subminimum wages to College Work-Study students. Work-Study is a financial aid program where students with documented financial need work for wages subsidized by an 80 percent federal contribution. In recent testimony before the House Labor Standards Subcommittee, National Student Association President Clarissa Gilbert branded the subminimum “discriminatory” and urged its abolition. “Students work because they have to,” Gilbert said. “We are asking for fair treatment for these student workers in their battle to stay even with the skyrocketing costs pf education and the debilitating effects of inflation.” “The dollar amounts these students earn directly affects whether or not they can buy books, where they live, what they eat, where they go to school and the amounts of additional monies that they need to finance their education in the form of grants, loans and support from their families.” Rep. James O’Hara (D., Mich.) and the National Student Lobby Co-Director Steve Pressman also testified before the House subcommittee during We find it unthinkable that the federal hearings on an O’Hara bill that would virtually government, which established minimum wage abolish the subminimum. Standards, should subsidize subminimum wages,” Gilbert said. Rationale offerred of the subminimum have Proponents The NSA president noted that Work-Study was argued that substandard wages spur the creation of new set up primarily to allocate financial aid, and that student jobs by offering employers an incentive to with the subminimum, students only have to work hire students. They contend that even broader longer hours to meet their financial needs.” SASU conference... Earlier, the conference Had been marred by procedural battles over the credentials of many SASU delegates. On Friday night, the outgoing officers stated that some of the schools present would not be permitted to vote if they did not sign a “contract” committing their SA to pay SASU dues for the 1976-77 year. Representatives of many schools protested that they had not seen the contract nor had known about the necessity of signing it before the beginning of the conference. Some also said they could not legally sign such a contract anyway because of fiscal policies them, as SUNY governing Buffalo’s SA Treasurer Carol Block pointed out, or because their respective student senates would have to approve them first. However, the SASU officers insisted upon not seating the disputed delegates, and when the roll was called their names were not included. This led to a challenge of the ruling of the (Kirkpatrick) Chairman and commenced a four-hour debate on who is a delegate and who isn’t. Finally, Kirkpatrick’s ruling was overturned by the membership almost unanimously. The only Page ten . The Spectrum . three votes supporting the ruling came from Kirkpatrick, Kaboolian and Hamowitz. Controversial first action The contract idea apparently stemmed from difficulty in recent years in collecting dues from several schools, who were allowed' to participate in conferences and be active members while they had not paid, compounding SASU’s already shaky budgetary situation. The only school not seated in time for the elections was Stony Brook, whose application was tabled until after the elections because they had dropped ouf of the organization earlier this year during the inter-organizational disputes and are, as one delegate termed it, “a member in bad standing.” Finally, the roll was complete and elections were held on Saturday night.

But despite these rare occasions of antagonism and general rudeness, the operators seem to note and agree that the general courtesy level of the students has greatly improved in the,past few years. “It seems that the students have become more polite, injecting more ‘pleases’ and ‘thank-yous’ into their speech,” Claimed Kay Marshall. The women attribute this to the end of the war period, claiming that students are more at peace with themselves now, and are reflecting this in their behavior. They also attribute this new politeness to the general lack of money associated with most students. The operators perform a task on campus that is often considered small within a huge University system. Yet, ironically enough, without their aid, it would be almost , impossible to get through the bureaucracy of the University. During registration periods, the number 831-900 is one of the busiest in Buffalo. So next time you seek their help, don’t , r forget your thank-yous.

The University telephone operator provides a campus service which is often ignored and unrewarded. Students and faculty in need of information dial “O” rather mechanically, taking the people at the other end for granted. Yet, Mildred Wilhelm, Sally Pasternak, Gloria Roselle, and Marge Parlotto, the members of the staff, do not seem to mind as they go beyond that call of duty each day to satisfy the incoming and inquisitive requests. Each of these woman are civil service employees, who must follow ~the rules and regulations that the government enforces. All five operators work thirty-seven and a half hours a week, and are not permitted to work overtime. Nevertheless, from the hours of 8 a.m. to 12 midnight, the switchboard is ponstantly “manned,’’ After - midnight, an answering service receives all ;t incoming calls. Besides performing the most obvious task of searching for home and office numbers, the staff, which works out of a small office on the first floor of Goodyear, must also keep records and books on all the activities associated with the University. This type of organization often becomes burdensome because of the everchanging positions of the various offices, Clubs and department figures. The one major complaint is that, no one ever informs them of the changes that are made. Many times they have no idea how to inform their callers. Each day extra homework is required. Besides the regular work that their official title of Information Clerk requires, the operators must go type of even further and become a “jack-of-all-trades.” Often their routine of relaying information is not enough, and they must aid in other ways. This occurs in several different manners. One such instance is when a new foreign student will call the ftperator. Not only must the operator locate a number for them, but she must also be able to communicate the information in a way that will be easily understood by the student.

Huskies and pencil cases Following the luncheon, alumni members took bus tours of the North Campus. Many had never seen the campus, and asked questions about the “Bubble” and Governors Residence Halls, among other things. ToUr director Richard Baldwin discreetly avoided using the more common name for the Bubble (The Ketterpillar) when describing it to the visitors. Several people felt the new campus was too big, and one woman could not believe the campus was only one-third completed. “In wintertime you’d need a pair of skis to get between buildings on the campus,” one man exclaimed, while another felt that a team of huskies might be more valuable. The thirty-five people who attended the reunion represented one-third of the surviving members of the class of ’26, which originally numbered about 400.

A separate minority opinion recommended immediate termination of the College because its three signers felt the College would be unable to meet the conditions and was more detrimenal than helpful in its current form. In addition, Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg said in an accompanying memorandum to President Robert Ketter that the College should be terminated if it does not meet the conditions—fijit he added that steps should be eiWe the decision about the future, of toe College is divorced from a decision about 6 U re emiC pr °^ ramS tau^t °t ffrom a |w Marxist perspective. ° Win8 rhartp chartering % nf t committee hy fhearings, *"!“ in Colleges, but ordered periodic review. Representatives of the College denounced the report as contradictory and politically motivated (see editorial page). The documents, dated May 26, have not been made public yet by University administrators. They give an incomplete picture of what appears to be a favorable recommendation from the Chartering Committee on behalf of Tolstoy College and scathing criticism of the condition of Social Sciences College (see page 2 for text). Ketter was originally expected to make a final decision on the future of the two Colleges Tuesday, but this was postponed pending further evaluation. The Chatering Committee was set up as part of a new constitution for the Colleges written by the Faculty Senate Colleges Committee in 1974. The Committee was headed by Physics Professor Jonathan Reichert, this years Faculty Senate Chairman. The Reichert prospectus, as it to be called was a roved by the PP entire Faculty Senate , in February over -- ’ Fall Social Sciences, among others, to undergo further bitter opposition from those who claimed that subjecting the Colleges to the scrutiny of Faculty dominated chartering committee was the first step toward dismantling the system, or affecting a fundamental change for the worse in the Colleges character. The new constitution and system of review, its supporters argued at the time, would strengthen the Colleges by ensuring their academic legitimacy. The six conditions for chartering are: -continued on page u- Orientation program is disrupted bp DUE action by Bert Black Spectrum Staff Writer In an action termed “unauthorized” by Division of Undergraduate Education (DUE) Dean Charles Ebert, over seven hundred prospective freshmen from Western New York were invited to campus in mid-May for an “early advisement” program, carried out by the DUE advisement staff. The students completed course request forms, thus shortcurcuiting activities normally supervised during Freshman Orientation. Orientation officials expressed over a possible drop in attendance and a corresponding decrease in funds. Ebert made his statement in a memorandum, sent to Robert Grantham, Associate Dean and Director of Advisement. The memo also indicated that the University Orientation Committee met June 2 to discuss the problems brought on by the unauthorized early advisement. The University Orientation Committee consists of Ebert, Admissions and Records Director Richard Dremuk, Associate Vice President Anthony Lorenzetti, EOP Director Ranee Jackson, and Director of Orientation John Buerk. Letters to high schools The Ebert memorandum also stated that a letter being sent to high school counselors at local schools should not state that the early advisement was unauthorized, but should instead emphasize the “experimental” nature of the program. The letter will also ask the counselors to urge their students to attend Orientation, the memo indicated. Buerk said he expects a decrease in attendance at Orientation. The Orientation program as currently planned wfflgay\ for itself, Buerk said.'But in the case that 716 Western New Yorkers fail to attend, there would be a loss of over $24,000 according to Howard Schapiro, Buerk’s administrative assistant. However, the total loss will be diminished somewhat by variable costs that depend on the number of students attending. Ebert said in an interview Friday that “early advisement” was not integrated with the Orientation program, not cleared with the University Orientation Committee, and was not a substitute for Orientation. He characterized it as an “independent operation.” Grantham reported Tuesday that the 716 students who were invited to campus met with academic advisors, while some students saw faculty and staff members in the Engineering and Health Sciences Faculties. They were then given individual appointments with their advisors and an opportunity to work with the registration materials, he said. According to Grantham, some freshmen did fill out and return data and course request forms, but he said that approximately 60 percent took the forms home to consult with their high school and parents. Most of these students will either return their registration forms later this summer, or at Orientation sessions. Grantham also said that no attempt has been made to process the forms. They will be processed August 6 after all Orientation sessions are over. When asked who authorized the program, Grantham said it was run by the DUE Advisement staff. “My staff can’t do anything of that size without my knowing about it,” he added. , Did their jobs Similarly, a DUE staff member said, “We take our orders from Dr. Grantham. Whatever we do must be sanctioned by him. We cannot do anything without the permission of Dr. Grantham or Assistant Director Dorothy Wynne. Otherwise we would be fired.” The staff member added, “We did our job the early advisement was i* v Tcent advisement. I don’t feel that Dr. Grantham ur his staff did anything wrong by doing their job. It is the perrogative of the Director of the staff to direct.” According to the staff member, both the early advisement and transfer orientation, which are similar programs, were discussed at staff meetings in December on problem areas in advisement. The staff member said he was — ' • surprised that no complaints had been raised at the time over transfer orientation which is completely under the control of DUE Advisement. Also, the staffer said that the early advisement program was not kept a secret and that it was not intended to hurt Orientation. The staff member added that approval of the program had not come from their advisors, but that “some good people are being made to look bad. The advisors are being made to look as if they did this in spite of everything. We did it under direction.]' Buerk said that his initial reaction to the early advisement was concern that the various programs at the University not be confused. He also said that he hoped that the early advisement could be well integrated with Orientation, but that it was inevitable to encounter some confusion in such a large University. No one registered Ebert emphasized that no students have been registered during the early advisement. He called a report in the June 3 Summer Reporter inaccurate, for saying that they had. He asked that news reports by cleared through his office from now on. Dorothy Wynne, Assitant Director of Advisement, said that there would be no problems if the “early” students wished to change their registration. DUE advisors would be available to these students throughout the summer if they requested further advisement or a change of registration before the forms were run through the computer. This would relieve the load on other advisors, allowing them to spend more time with other students attending Orientation. Another reason for the program was the desire to supply information about SUNYAB to students through their high school counselors first through local schools, and then on a statewide basis, Wynne said. In the past, many incoming students have asked for appointments with advisors, she said, and this was an attempt to organize these students into one group. Wynne said that those - —continued on page 6— �Text of the report on Social Sciences College Results of Evaluation; Sciences College Social individuals without clear direction or purpose.

Social Sciences College needs to Although Professor Stein has be Initial indicated that he plans to resign as questioned. intransigence only slowly gave Master at the end of the Spring, viable way to reluctant cooperation, an 1976 semester, no attitude that pretty much candidates to replace him have yet characterized the College’s emerged. coordinators throughout our evaluation procedures. Perceived C. Academic Theme of the threats to the academic freedom College As stated in their charter and of the College as well as residual suspiciousness from last year’s reinforced in the introduction to chartering process served as their attractively prepared 1975 academic year. Favorable, though informal, evaluations were made by nearly all students participating in the College’s courses. It would certainly be useful,.and to the advantage of Social Sciences College, to student translate these objective a more into impressions format. Members of the Social Sciences Sub-committee about the reasons for speculated the strong show of student enthusiasm. One possibility concerned the relevance to current social problems of topics covered in courses, especially when they are considered from less traditional points of view. A second hypothesis focused on the members of the Executive Committee of Social Sciences College was particularly adamant to permitting in relation classroom visits by individuals functionally unrelated to the College who, it was felt would also probably not have the requisite backgrounds to properly and objectively evaluate how and what was being taught. In essence, their objections represented a concern that their academic not be violated. freedom Agreement to outside evaluations was finally, though reluctantly, obtained with a significant provision which was designed to both the College’s uphold ideologically based resistance to their perception of a potential violation of their academic integrity and to comply with our Committee’s request. The resulting compromise offered individual faculty members the option of deciding whether or not they would permit observers in their classrooms. Once the selection was made in this manner, sampling of courses could no considered longer be representative. Two classes, Political Economy and Press and Society, were visited by three sub-committee members and one class, Vietnam Veterans, by one sub-committee member. Because of the relatively small class sizes, student input is strongly encouraged and indeed obtained within a seminar-like, informal, academic rather environment where for the most part dialogue replaced didacticism. Many examples, usually drawn from the current social scene, are used to reinforce a particular theoretical position or to demonstrate its applicability. When such a “case study” approach to teaching is utilized there is always the danger that examples and illustrations will either substitute for more precisely gathered, consensually validated data or will render such data less important or relevant. It is also clear that examples may be employed selectively, thereby precluding a balanced \ apparent justifications for resisting further evaluations. After several, meetings with the Master and members of the Executive Committee, resistance relaxed, thereby facilitating the data-gathering process, and suspiciousness was replaced by caution. It was not until the present evaluation process was completed that the College’s appeared representatives comfortable genuinely with members of our Committee. catalogue of courses, the academic missions of Social Sciences College are to study social from a processes radical perspective and to develop models which may then be applied to current social problems. Their curriculum has been designed to provide an orientation to social and political theory currently underrepresented at the State University of New York at Buffalo. D. Academic Program B. The Master Professor Stein, the Master of Social Sciences College accepts little direct responsibility for either the development of the College’s academic programs or for the way it functions Although administratively. certainly competent and within his own productive discipline, Professor Stein, in harmony with his ideological and theoretical positions, seems to equate leadership with intrusive control and therefore insists upon equality among scholars and students within any academic community. While one may respect and even encourage this sort of arrangement, it is also the kind of organizational structure which requires considerable monitoring to avoid the trap of confusing an egalitarian environment with one that consists of a collection of Pagi two . The theme of the College is adequately implemented by an abundance of courses which deal with such issues as: Jensenism, Criminal Justice in America, Day Care, Radical Psychology, Marxist Economics, and Vietnam titles are Veterans. Course accompanied by informative descriptions and in some are requirements instances, stipulated. The topics and areas of knowledge covered by most of the courses lend themselves to a strong inter-disciplinary approach, an observation confirmed by the relatively high percentage of courses cross-listed with other departments.

Thirdly, the deemphasis on examinations and grades may make the students fee) more comfortable. At least theoretically an “ideal” learning environment may have been established. F. Classroom Visits The initial opposition to the current evaluations expressed by presentation of a particular topic These problems did arise during some of the classroom observations and it}ay have been exacerbated as a function of the heterogenous levels of academic sophistication among the students. Without appropriate backgrounds and concerns for critical thinking, examples remain the trappings of an intellectual discipline instead of serving to support and elaborate the tenets or postulates derived from that discipline. G. Grading Grades are assigned by instructors and are most often based upon the quality of students’ oral presentations or occasionally on term papers. Formal examining procedures are rarely employed. Nonetheless, the grade distributions in Social Sciences College courses are not significantly different from thosy in courses elsewhere in the Social Sciences. Except for a relatively large number of incompletes, the two most frequently assigned grades are A (about 40%) and B (about 30%). Grading standards appear to have become more stringent over the past year. H. Quality of Instructors Although the students’ evaluations of the instructors ranged from adequate to good, some of the Social Sciences Sub-committee members were less enthusiastic. In spite of their recognition that observers may interfere with and even influence what it is they are observing, they over the registered concern disproportionate amount of time devoted to “trivial” issues, to the neglect of more substantive considerations of data and critical analyses of how and from what sources the data were obtained. Of course, what is considered “trivial” to some observers is based upon definitions and values which are not necessarily shared by others. Perhaps more cogent is the observation that opinions are sometimes stated as fact to which —continued on page 14— �IMPOTENCE Can I offer you a cure for $10.00?

Once again Social Sciences College has been subjected to scrutiny by the Administration. Just a little over a year ago President Ketter granted us a two year charter with the stipulation that there be a total review after 12 months. Having begun at the outset of the spring semester, this review has continued through the end v/f the school year. It is only now, June 1st, when many students and faculty are away, that we have learned of the results of the Chartering Committee. So far, the reports have remained secret,' however, some members of the College were at least able to read portions of the documents, and Spitzberg’s letter. (six votes) calls for , The majority report continuation of the provisional charter through January 1977. The minority report (three votes) calls for immediate termination of the program. The report denigrates the “Master” of the College, Dr. Stein, for his insistence upon “equality among scholars and students within the academic community,” which they maintain is consistent with his “ideological and theoretical positions.” The report further states, that “While one may respect and even encourage this sort of arrangement, it is also the kind of structure which requires considerable monitoring to avoid the trap of confusing an egalitarian environment with one that consists, of a collection of individuals without clear direction or purpose.” Yet, in just the next two paragraphs, we find that the academic program of the college is praised: “The theme of the College is adequately implemented by an abundance of courses.” Clearly then, the Committee’s fear of lack of focus is either abstract, or is not the real criticism. It would seem that the real criticism is Dr. Stein’s and the College’s “ideological and theoretical positions.” The College was originally attacked by Ketter for alleged violations of academic freedom a case this Committee was supposed to investigate. Such a charge of lack of clear direction contradicts the heated cries about - THE i one nao ueuwwR ii ' f /« GDUtCXlOti 1 All lCRR wj H lorp. m In 1 1 III IdohF M Hasaio A«6APV A Good account, but possible ideological biases. Spitzberg himself praises the College for upholding academic freedom, while “offering a particular viewpoint and having the courage to state its perspective clearly for all to see.” the majority report continues by explaining that student interest is high and speculates that this is because the college has created “at least theoretically an ‘ideal’ learning environment” due to “the relevance to current social problems of topics covered in courses,” and “a classroom setting where the emphasis is on dialogue and student input.” Yet, when it comes to the evaluation of classroom visits and instructors we find that those very teachers who have been able to create such an environment are criticized and deemed incompetant, biased and uncritical. It is interesting that the committee cldhrjs to support the purpose of the College in me abstract, while in the concrete everyday! reality of instruction, has nothing but contempt. Our instructors are being attacked for carrying out the theme, methods, and purposes of the and doing so in a manner which facilitates the freedom to question and criticize. Such inconsistencies shed the official appearance of objectivity generated by the Committee, and underscore_Jhe'perpetual political harrassment that has existed since the College’s inception. Nonetheless, most of the recommendations of the majority report do not violate the purpose of the College. Efforts are underway to comply with them. Yet what we have seen of the minority report, and Spitzberg’s report i$ totally unacceptable. The recommendations of both call for such drastic changes in the College that it would be completely unrecognizable as a center of radical and Marxist analysis. We are working on a lengthy analysis of the reports, as we obtain the, and will publish our findings in the near future. We intend to mount a major campaign in our defense, and invite all concerned people to support us. ... To the Editor.

Cooking outside, she saw a number of unfamiliar white men on her property. The men were part of a group of 16 Niagara Mohawk Power Corporation supervisors accompanied by 17 plainclothed policemen who came to the Reservation to shut off the power from the homes of twelve Seneca families who refused to pay their utility bills. Some had refused payment for as long as seventeen months, protesting the use of Seneca land by the power company. Kennedy claimed that after unsuccessful attempts to learn the men’s identities she fired three but warning shots into the air not at them. She was, however* subsequently arrested and charged with attempted murder and reckless endangerment. - Philosophical differences This incident is but one manifestation of a d e eply-ingraned emotional controversy between factions of the Seneca nation. One one hand Seneca Nation is the and its elected (Corporation) officials; on the other is the r “Traditionalist Senecas so-called “dissident group,” of which Kennedy is a member. The loyalties of 5000 members of the Seneca nation are at stake. The Traditionalists as an organization were formed in 1973, claiming a membership of over 400. They were brought together by deep emotions about their heritage and culture, and questioned the competency of the Seneca Corporation’s leadership, especially in land sales to the Federal and New York State governments. As a group, the Traditionalists refuse to accept the authority of the Seneca Corporation and its foundation, which they consider “the white man’s ways.” They support the return to “clan mother rule” and reject the Corporation as illegal; as such they consider themselves to be the only responsible leaders of the Seneca people’s return to tradition and legitimacy. Convenience and necessity The Seneca Corporation, according to Treasurer Clavin Lay, traces it existence “back to the 1700’s when the white man’s form of democracy was adopted” '"“as a matter of convenience and necessity; clan rule was thought to be too laborious and out-dated.

Art, like any part of a culture, cannot remain insular to if it is to continuously progress; poetry the history and events of its time, as is music and dance. Likewise, each art form has its own various disciplines, which must be interconnected to benefit one another. The Zodiaque Company, under the direction of Linda Swiniuch, recognizes this need, and uses it to its ultimate advantage. Within the company itself, which is primarily modern, there is a mixture of ballet, modern and jazz, all combined in various proportions to add greater dimensions to the dances — — \i produced. 'Dance and Friends': Interdisciplinary theme enhances Zodiaque concert at Artpark Tv The company, which has grown tremendously since its affiliation with the University in 1961, has years of scintillating dance to the provided University community. For the first time in its career, Zodiaque will step out of its campus bounds, performing at the Artpark in Lewiston on Saturday, June 19 and Sunday, June 20. The concert has been planned in collaboration with the AmDance Company and the Royal Academy of Ballet, both of Western New York. Unity of disciplines The performance is an actual enactment of three different disciplines working together. The AmDance Company is one of the only Tap/Jazz companies in the country, while Ginger Burke's Royal Academy performs solely classical ballet. Swiniuch is thrilled by the interdisciplinary theme of the concert. "I've always felt very strongly that you can't make isolations," she stated. "It is essential that the three elements of dance are 1 interrelated at times." Although the fact that a University dance company (which is sponsored by a University that does not even have its own separate dance department) has made it so far is obviously fantastic and fairly unbelievable, Swiniuch takes it in carefully calculated stride. She is immensely proud of the progress that Zodiaque has made, and, yet, she is prepared not to move too fast "so that it doesn't fall apart by being too top-heavy." This booking, she suggests, is "kind of a beginning." Rapid growth The beginning actually occured in 1961, when Swiniuch's original company. The Company of„Man, • <-27 dispanded. This performance group was more a part the city community than the University community, yet classes were held for students. The company's building burnt down in '61, leading to the demise of the Company of Man, which, in turn, activated the creation of Zodiaque, sponsored by of SUN Vat Buffalo. "I decided that a company needs a school to develop dancers," she explained. 'This provides the University students with a performing outlet, as well as performing training, which many companies require." The company has grown rapidly since then. Dancers from the troupe have gone on to dance in professional companies. Others have gone into choreography. In fact, Janice Birnbaum, a Zodiaque "graduate" choreographed one of the pieces that will appear in Artpark. Zodiaque has performed a number of times this year at the University, usually in the small and cramped Harriman Theatre. The transition to Artpark, where the stage is 50 feet wide by 40 feet deep, has been a real uplift. "It's exciting to work in a place that huge," said Swiniuch. "We can just fly." Dance for everyone Of course, it hasn't been all that easy. Dances that were specifically choreographed for Harriman had to be revised. The company brings its own prop people to the theater, who begin work at 8 a.m. for an 8 p.m. performance. The concert itself is considered a popular concert. The music will range from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite to the music of George Gershwin to more modern compositions, and so on. The dances, like the music, are varied so that people just beginning to develop an interest in this art will not be turned off by too much depth, while dance aficianados should have something new to encounter. "The concert should be fun to watch," claimed Swiniuch. "It will not be so heavy and so esoteric that people won't know what's coming off." The title alone. Dance and Friends, suggests its accessibility. Dance is absolutely for anyone who has ever had the urge to jump in the air for joy or huddle in terror. The movement of the body is as familiar a the physical sensation as one will ever feel expression of every and any emotion. To see this expression of freedom is as relieving as experiencing it yourself. Go see our Zodiaque Dance Company next weekend.

'Trouble in Mind' features fine cast by Ken Norman Spectrum Arts Staff The SUNYAB Black Theatre Workshop's version of Trouble In Mind is being extended into the summer in conjunction with the Department of Theatre's summer theatre program. The program, which includes Shakespeare's The Winter's Tale and a travelling street theatre show for Buffalo city dwellers, begins with Trouble In MinS this weekend. An Obie Award-winning drama by Alice Childress, Trouble In Mind was presented this year in early May. Although attendance was good, the fact that finals were so close and that there was a Shakespearean comedy on campus at the same time prevented many people from seeing the highly-acclaimed work. Roberta Plutzik, a reviewer for the Buffalo Courier-Express, said the run was "really much too short." Lorna Hill, who directed the two-act drama, received invitations to Haven, take the play to other threatres around the state Connecticut. Hill hopes to start the tour with the Center in Lockport and finish with the New Haven performance as part of their summer arts festival. The touring company will be composed of the original cast, featuring Lorna Hill, Chuck Fadel, and Frank J. Robinson, who received very good reviews for his performance as Sheldon Forrester, a middle-aged black character actor. One new member will be Theresa Jackson, a student at Fredonia State College, replacing Dorothy Hill as Millie Davis. More than making up The closely-knit cast will rely heavily on the work of its stage manager, Karen Chamberlain, and production manager, Michael Hill, both of whom were superlative in taking on more than their share to make up for a weak technical crew. Congratulations on the success of the May run and best wishes for the summer run were sent in a letter from Alice Childress. Childress wrote Trouble In Mind in 1955, setting the drama in 1957 on Broadway during rehearsal for a play about the civil rights movement entitled Chaos In Bellville. Chaos features the usual stereotyped roles for blacks, even while being labelled "ahead of its time." Despite the controversial subject matter, it still features a plantation owner as the lead character and "tenant farmers" with lines like "Bless your soul, you just one of God's golden-haired little angels." Lorna Hill plays Willetta Mayer, who has acted in dozens of these type of roles and is determined to break the mold and play some genuine characters. Al Manners (Chuck Fadel), the director, tells her to "relate" and "justify." None of the other actors are really on her side. Her conflict with Manners brings out many truths some funny and some sad until finally everyone sees the truth about each other. Trouble In Mind, under the direction of Lorna Hill, is an "actor's play." There are no special props, scenery, or lighting tricks to distract alone because of its cast, and audiences. The play as such stands specifically because of the performances of Hill, Fadel and Robinson, who provide the bulk of the drama and entertainment. Trouble In Mind opens tonight at 8, running through Sunday, June 13, and June 18-20, at Pfeifer (Courtyard) Theater. Tickets are available at Norton or at the door. , — — Page eight . The Spectrum .

Bassist Guus Willemse, who pinch-hits in both these areas, seems to be most at home on his primary instrument, which he handles with a flair many mainstream rock players would admire. His vocals (when present) are never heard without the benefit of a backup chorus, and thj sound is similar to that of Pink Floyd's light, innocuous harmonies, Waters and Wright pretty but unimpressive.

It seems a shame to say that Rumplestiltskin's Resolve is enjoyable only because of the artist's choice of studio musicians, but it's true. Anyway, it has gotten me listening to Phillips again, and perhaps it will do the same to cither former or potential fans. Better listen quick though, because it won't be long before Robinson leaves to "pursue a solo career" and we all know from past experience (with folks like Rick Wakeman) what that will sound like. John Dinican - sax lines, many of which sound like, retakes of Chris Wood's solos for Traffic, are not the most inventive in the world. Ennes' keyboards are Solution's only chordal component and as such are used excellently. Extremely lush mixtures of organ, piano and string synthesizer give Cordon Bleu the rich ambience of many of Europe's "classical" rock groups and this, combined with their forceful jazz rhythm section, is probably what makes the album enjoyable. Hans Waterman, possibly the most techmbally adept member of Solution, lends a touch of fire to everything on Cordon Bleu, and his ease of communication and cooperation* with bassist Willemse indicates years of experience. It has been said that lately the only significant difference between "progressive'' rock and "electric" jazz is in the rhythm section. If this is true, then Solution must surely be a jazz group; although if rated by their improvisational skills, they would come up as a second-rate one. When viewed as a rock group, however, they come up with a clean if ohty<for their nice arrangements and lack of ear-jarring guitar or synthesizer breaks. I won't say that Cordon Bleu is an album everyone should rush out and buy, but I do know that at least a few people out there share a taste for this kind of music. If you are fond of any of the groups I've-mentioned their music is akin to, or if you have a predisposition towards the soundtracks from late-1960's spy movies, you will like Solution.

"Saih 1" by Paul Gutama Soegijo performed with total concerted effort by Eberhard Blum on bass flute; "Discours 111" by Vinko Globokar amplified and prerecorded oboe playing by Nora Post; the American premiere of Iannis Xenakis's "Psappha" for solo percussionist like other works of Xenakis this piece changes timbre by sections and then concentrates contrast/seduction within that color, equalling a seduction contrast/seduction format. Donald Knaack's performance of Wednesday night, I feel, did not capture this, it was a lack luster rendition. June 3, The Kronos Quartet, a young string quartet with a new violaist performed differing and difficult pieces by festival featured composers: Xenakis's "ST/4,'' in which the first violinist's string broke but was replaced quickly and the tension of the piece was unbroken; "Structures for String Quartet" by Morton Feldman a delicate whisp of a piece which allows and obtained transient sounds from around the hall and nearby practice rooms; "llliac Suite" by Lejaren Hiller was the first experiment ever using a computer to order notes in such a way as is that to sound exactly like the playful style of Lejaren Hiller programable?; the second half of the concert was taken up with George Crumb's "Black Angels" for amplified string quartet, assorted the volume levels on the percussion and tuned water glasses amplifiers were extreme, the performance lacked polish but the excitement of the piece transcended everything, like the devil coming through in all of us! June 4, Morton Feldman evening featuring "Instruments 1" and the world premiere of "Instruments 11" a competent and controlled performance by the Creative Associates exposed the beauty of individual sonorities, though I must admit I love Feldman's ostinatos and I questioned (and enjoyed) a constant ticking-like sound throughout the evening.

Very few cities in the country can boast of a new music festival of three weeks, twelve (more associated evenings) concerts, some of the most recent music being composed today and most of all fine, professional performances. Of particular mention are the upcoming concerts of Steve Reich and Musicians on Friday June 11, Saturday and Sunday at the Albright-Knox days and evenings of multi-media events will occur presented by the S.E.M. ensemble of Buffalo, and evenings of the music of George Crumb on Monday, June 14 and Friday June 18. — I'm SA SAM TheSA Summer Bunny! h Steve Reich, New York composer involved with hypnotic, slow-subtle changing repetitive music, will be in residence the second week of June.

Scholars from Europe ahd the United States will converge on Buffalo to unravel aspects of Joyce’s work in panels, lectures, discussions and film. An interdisciplinary approach takes into work, Joyce in film, places and historical and recount music iferary figures in Joyce. Major papers will be read by prominent European and American scholars including Leo Knuth of the Instituut voor Oudgermaanse, Utrecht, the’Netherlands; Fritz Senn, Swiss editor, translator and critic; and Morris Beja, Ohio State University. James Atherton, originally scheduled to attend from England, has cancelled his participation because of ill health. State University Lockwood's Joyce Collection Panel discussions will be led by three distinguished American Joyceans: SUNYAB’s Leslie Fiedler and Adaline Glasheen and Mary Reynolds of Yale University. Zack Bowen of the State University College at Binghamton will present music in Joyce and Mark Shechner of this University’s English Department will arrange a slide presentation of Joyce’s manuscripts and photographs from the Joyce Collection in Lockwood Library. Lockwood’s Joyce Collection is known throughout the world for its holdings. Seventy-five (nearly all) of Joyce’s notbooks for Finnegan’s Wake, photographs, portraits of Joyce and his family and friends, manuscripts, first editions, eyeglasses, walkingsticks and more are included. Out of this array, Thomas Connolly, professor of English, and K.C. Gay, curator of the Poetry Collection, have mounted an exhibition illuminating Joyce’s writing habits and endless editing. Excruciatingly apparent is the scholar’s dilmma in approaching the manuscripts and notebooks. Not only was Joyce’s hand almost illegible, but his habit was to “harvest” phrases and paragraphs from notes to manuscripts and cross over each bit, with crayons of different colors. “Scribbledehobble,” Joyce’s largest manuscript for Finnegan’s Wake, is on view and illustrates the crayoning device. • , slowly engulfing setbacks.

Detrimental The minority report was written by Physiology Professor Barbara Howeel and signed by Associate Librarian Yoram Szekely and Philosophy Trbfessor Daisie Radner. They were pessimistic about the College’s ability to effect the changes deemed necessary and so called for discontinuation, according to Howell. While noting that Social Sciences College fills a void in the design of the University, she charged that the College lacked leadership and direction, and was more detrimental than helpful in its current form. Although Howell Claimed the minority report was not intended as a personal < ... attack on any individual, three people including, Howard Kling, Robin Weeks, and Administrative Officer William Stein, were singled out as those who had to be replaced to revitalize the College’s leadership. Spitzberg’s report to Ketter argued that both the majority and minority Committee reports were essentially the same. He criticized the leadership and faculty of Social Sciences College, saying that the chief administrative officer (Stein) “has proven to be less than vigorous in his leadership.” He claimed that the College is essentially the same as it was prior, to chartering. Spitzberg„ aJso said that he asked for written documentation of the competence of College instructors, and asserted that with the exception of two instructors, Social!Sciences College was unable to meet this requirement. He added that the documentation for many Social Sciences College instructors lased on brief consisted of ilty affiliated interviews will found highly with the Colle] >st instructors inadequate.

Although such an approach, through its potential provocation of student reaction could serve as a useful pedagogical device, sub-committee members felt that it was overutilized and, more often than not, distorted or ignored facts. Indeed, the major concern of most of the members of our entire Committee was that in the rush to emphasize and reinforce a particular theoretical orientation to our society or societies in general, critical scholarship could easily give way to glib generalizations, supported by emotion, and in defiance of data. Concern w; over the lad uncertain quali of the instruct! assigned to remains uncle; assignments addition, instructor of demonstrated qualifications,” Spitzberg charged. “I believe that a College committed to radical political thought in the Marxist tradition contributes to the diversity of this University, and that its existence is a significant contribution to the academic freedom of the campus he asserted. But, Spitzberg added that he believes the transformation necessary to maintain Social Sciences College is unlikely to be successfully carried out, thus explaining his stand that the College be disbanded. Spitzberg urged Ketter to allow Social Sciences College to file a detailed restructuring plan (original deadline: June 8), to include completely new leadership, elimination of all old courses and instructors, and submission of a new list of approved courses and instructors. “Should this plan not be satisfactory and should it not involve substantial regular faculty participation in day-to-day administration, teaching, and decision-making with an in graduate accompanying reduction student dominance of the College’s life, of the then the recommendation should be minority Committee Chartering followed and the College terminated.” Spitzberg added that he is currently conferring with faculty members and graduate students in attempts to devise a restructuring plan. Stein charged that Spitzberg did not consult him in regard to any of the important decisions or policies of the instructors in difficult to make in the absence of complete and current resumes.

Stein also said that the report was only an opinion expressed by the Committee, and although he disagrees with them, the Committee members are entitled to their beliefs. “This University is an authoritarian system; Ketter is responsible for it and everyone else serves only in an advisory capacity,” he charged. Continual harassment Stein complained that the College had been the subject of continual harassment and perpetual review by Administration officials. “I’m damn sick and tired of this harassment, and 1 wish that the matter would be finally resolved,” he protested.

However, to the credit of many of the faculty participants in the College, considerable time is spent with students, in academic pursuits, outside of regularly scheduled class time. I. Future Plans Members of the College’s Executive Committee are aware of most of the College’s deficiencies, but do not yet appear ready to offer a set of concrete plans for the future. In part, this may be due to the lack of vigorous leadership on the part of the Master and to uncertainties about who will replace Professor Stein upon his resignation at the end of May, 1976. Looking to the future is also difficult because of the dearth of University faculty who have become significantly involved with the academic affairs of the College. College representatives plan a concerted effort to invite more participation from other segments of the University, which would then them with the provide interdisciplinary base essential to the pursuit of their less traditional methods of analyzing societal problems. J. Vote The voting members of the Colleges Chartering Committee were requested to select one of three recommendations relating to the future of Social Sciences College. The three options were: 1. removal of provisional and approval granting of unconditional approval through December 31,1976; 2. continuation of provisional approval through December 31, 1976; 3. revocation of provisional approval and discontinuation. the offer which would have meant paying back 25 percent of the losses so not to interfere with the normal operations of the pub Six votes were cast for for an entire year.

Call Feature Editor Students with a Bachelor of Art in Psychology may be found in a larger range of graduate and professional programs than those from any other undergraduate discipline in the social sciences. It was the only social science department which saw 1974 and 1975 graduates continue in such professional programs as law, medicine, dentistry and business, as well as a number of graduate departments, including library science, sociology, philosophy, english and architecture. According to questionnaire responses from 47 graduating seniors in the Psychplogy department, 64 percent plan to continue their education in the fall. Of those 25 who have finalized plans for entering graduate and professional programs next year, leas than half (44 percent) are entering graduate the field of psychology. An programs in undergraduate major in phychology may thus provide a springboard to a variety of career opportunities. The number staying in the field is up from last year’s. Figures from the University Placement and Career Guidance office indicated that only 22 percent of those 1975 graduates continuing their education were entering psychology graduate programs. Data from the previous year (1974) showed 32 percent were pursuing higher degrees within the field of psychology, the majority in public educational facilities. Acceptances of psychology majors from this University to graduate programs is high. 77 percent of the applicants have definitely been accepted as of early spring and another 18 percent wait-listed or waiting for financial aid. Only 7 percent were not accepted to any programs of their choice. Diverse interests This year’s psychology graduates also have diverse interests.

In addition, there were applications to programs in library science, business, anthropology and sociology. 25 percent of the graduates have no immediate educational plans for next fall. Half of these graduates expressed an interest in attending graduate or professional school at some point in the future, predominantly social work and counseling. Others indicated an emphasis in some area other than psychology, such as education. Within the field of psychology the most popular graduate program was counseling. 50 percent of the applicants to psychology graduate departments were to this area.

Another 25 percent of the psychology school applications were to developmental psychology departments and the remainder (3) were to clinical and cognitive areas. Financial aid 35 percent of graduating psychology seniors had been offered some form of financial aid at the time of the survey, while others were still waiting to hear. Among those going on in a psychology program, 55 percent were given some form of assistance, including fellowships or tuition waivers. Comments by the accepted students point up the importance of involvement in research during undergraduate years as crucial to (heir admittance into graduate schools. The differences in undergraduate performances between those going directly to graduate school and those with no immediate educational prospects are slight. The mean overall grade point average (gpa) of those entering school in the fall is 3.45. The mean psychology gpa is 3.47. Both the overall and psychology gpa of those not attending graduate school is 3.40. Both groups have equal experience with regard to research and volunteer work; about 70 percent of each group have been involved with one or the other or both. In general, there is little difference between the credentials of those continuing on in the fall and those with no immediate plans. This indicates that reasons other than scholastic record are determining what sort of plans a graduate makes. — • 5 WEST NORTHRUP PLACE around — Diverse interests of psych grads is reflected in survey by Nancy Ellett FURNITURE Whole apartment; table, couch, chairs, .mattresses, etc. Also dishes.

Of them, less than half plan to remain in the field of psychology. Almost one-third took graduate record exams in preparation for it. If this poll is representative of the other academic areas, it may be concluded that there is a general trend toward application of undergraduate skills toward other fields of endeavor following graduation. Diminishing financial aid for graduate students and the more stringent graduate admissions criteria possibly have combined to discourage students from considering graduate careers in psychology, although the figures show that 91 percent of those who applied for such'a program were accepted to at least one.

The burden of passing the budget fell to the Executive Committee after the Assembly’s final meeting April 30 was students disrupted by the SA Finance protesting ConvjTuttee’s recommended allocation to the Black Student ynion (BSD), which cut $10,100 from last year’s budget. Although the budget had not been officially released at press time, pending approval from the Office of Student Affairs, an SA source provided the following approximate figures: New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG) 522,000, down $3000 from last year and $7500 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; Action Community Corps (CAC) $20,000, down $12,000 from last year and $3000 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; $14,555, down Legal Aid Executive — - — $5000 from last year and the same amount originally recommended "by the Finance Committee Sunshine House $8210, down $1000 from last year and mbre than $60 originally recommended by the Finance -* Committee; Black Student Union (BSU) $25,000, down $4900 from last - year and $5000 more than was originally recommended by the Finance Committee; PODER $13,000, down $1000 from last year and $3000 more than was originally allocated by the Finance Committee; Jewish Student Union (JSU) $9000, up $2000 from last year and $4600 more than, was allocated originally by the Finance Committee. - — Coffee break $51,0(30 was Within SA, allocated for office staff salaries, $13,400 to activities, down $600 from last year and S4400 more than the Finance Committee’s figure.

This $600 increase was allocated specifically for him to conduct a budgetary priorities survey. The Executive Committee meeting scheduled for May 24 was never officially convened, according to SA President Steve Schwartz. Several students pushed passed Schwartz into the room where the meeting was to take place, and he immediately dismissed the members claiming "under those conditions a reasonable budget could not be passed.” One SA official charged that several members of the BSU entered the office and caused minor damage, spilling coffee and coke on desks and floors, and throwing mail into the garbage Steve Schwartz can All-nighter The Executive Committee met later that night “off-campus" location from 7 to 10 p.m. The meeting-wits recessed until II. at another location. Debtffe continued until 4:30 a.ni.. when the meeting was recessed once again. Schwartz said "the budget was not close to being passe/i at that point . . The meeting resumed the next night at a third location. Deliberations started at 10 that and the Executive night, Committee finally came up with what they considered to be a “balanced budget” at 7 in the motaulg. Schwartz —— • by Steve Milligram asserted that intimidation took no role in the final passage of the budget. “The final motion that was passed before the meeting was adjourned stated that the budget had not been passed under any from of duress,” he said. At p ress , t ime, no representatives of the BSU were available to comment. Schwartz the emphasized budget was very fair in its dispersal of funds, but added “it was most unfortunate that we had to go behind closed doors and rely solely on written statements from the clubs instead of hearing their representatives present arguments for funding.” Copies of the completed budget should be available to all organizations by mid-June. /Payment default forces shut-down at CUNY the same rates as those in SUNY would mean annual charges of $750 for underclassmen and $900 for juniors and by Laura Bartlett Managing. Editor After defaulting on its faculty payroll last Friday, leaving the academic future of 250,000 students in danger, the City University of New York (CUNY) is minus its expected to reopen this week tuition md open traditional free admissions policies A tuition, at levels currently charged to students in the State University (SUNY) system, was expected to be imposed by the State Board of Higher Education Tuesday night. Sources close to the Board said that a series of token conditions would be attached. Free higher education in New York City dates back to 1847. Although a CUNY aid package was defeated in the legislature Friday, forcing the system’s 20 institutions to close with almost 40,000 seniors midway through final examinations, enough financial aid to allow CUNY to remain solvent through the next academic year was expected to be provided by the legislature if the tuition increase is imposed. — Cutbacks The imposition of tuition next fall at seniors Friday’s missed payroll was- the first time a City agency was compelled to default since its financial problems came to a head earlier this year. In March, as part of an effort to control spending, the City put the CUNY monthly spending on limitations, but these were not enforced as funds were advanced from future month’s budgets. In April, CUNY itself made some effort to cut back on spending. Following CUNY Chancellor J. Kibbee’s Robert recommendations for belt-tightening, the Board came up with its own plan, which even then included a recommendation for the imposition of tuition. The series of changes recommended by the Board also included limiting admission to CUNY senior colleges to those in the top one-third of their high school graduating class, or with a grade average of 80 or better, and limiting admission to community colleges to those in the top three-fourths of their class or with a grade average of 70 or better. Both these stipulations would put an end to CUNY’s traditional open admission policy, although its requirements much more liberal than SUNY’s. Also recommended was the merger of four CUNY campuses into two, and the elimination of several degree programs, effective September 1. Kibbee was directed by the Board' to recommend further elimination of programs that appear to be weak, duplicate or that cannot be justified by student demand. Geographic distribution of programs in the system’s centers was also a concern of the Board. CUNY should offer a wide range of programs, but not necessarily at all its locations, they said. Concerning the 30,000 to 40,000 students scheduled to graduate this week, Kibbee told reporters “they are not in danger of not graduating eventually.” According tp a spokesperson from the CUNY student government, the United Student Senate (USS), a massive student demonstration to protest the imposition of tuition is being planned, but details were not yet available. �The Eternal Return, American style Dreamers relive history as mythic bubble bursts We have given the voyage of family, friends and goods for the the MayPower a major role in our open road? interpretation of the dream: the The 1970’s stand to the 1960’s bold venture Westward in search /Myth and history a We were faced with somewhat as the 1930’s were to of freedom and then the signing a blueprint comparable Westering impulse the 1920’s: retrenchment is to of the “compact” liberation as Bust was to Boom. for the future.

Last week, a young British woman who spent five years in an Indian jail came to the University with another analysis: India under Indira Ghandi never really was a democracy, and has been rife with political repression of the- most blatant kind for years before the June emergency. The woman, Mary Tyler, 33, was arrested and imprisoned in the Bengal-Bihar section of India corpus.

Since her declaration of a state of emergency last June 26, giving herself full dictatorial powers, courage in the American media has been extensive. Most Americans are therefore familiar with reports from India of mass arrests, rigid press censorship, and of constitutional suspension rights. And all this, we now know, was done to save democracy, and in the hope it would not last long. Much attention had been given to Mrs. Ghandi’s conviction last Jtfne 12 by the High Court of Aiiahbad of finding her campaign manager in the 1971 national election frorft the public payroll. It seemed as if the prime minister of what was then often called the world’s most popular democracy (600 million people) would be forced from office for violations of an elections law, in a race most observers agree she would have won easily, anyway.

Page three �EditPrial A eulogy So far this year, we have seen tuition increased at the State University and imposed at the City University in similar fashion; Governor Carey has submitted a budget which already includes revenues to be realized from tuition levels expected to be set by the respective University governing panel, thus saving himself from the politically unpalatable act of imposing or increasing the tuitions himself. Carey has an excellent sense of administrative inevitability. Faced with funding deficits if they did not comply, the State University Board of Trustees meekly passed the tuition increase. The Board of Higher Education, which governs City University, in contrast, saw five of its members, including Chairman Alfred A. Giardino, resign in protest. But tuition was finally imposed by a reconstituted ending a tradition that dates to 1847. We mourn the passing of free tuition at the City University because it continues the dangerous trend of sacrificing education in the name of the new economic consciousness of restraint. This is a grave error. Even in a contracted economy, education must be held above other priorities for reasons that are obvious: a truly free, equalitarian society depends on equal opportunity, and equal opportunity in modern, post-industrial societies, is nothing less than equal opportunity to obtain an education. Without that guarantee, with work and middle class families now being priced out of public education, and with increased competition for available tuition assistance monies, we can only fall short of a committment to an educated, open country. • The politicians have correctly sensed how much their constituencies abhor the now greatly increased cost of sending their children to school. Students, many of whom are sending themselves to college, can only become embittered at the prospect of having to shell out hundreds of dollars more a year for school. Maybe not being able to attend at all. Disheartened by the cutbacks and shutdown at the City University, applications for the fall semester there are already down by 10,000. It was thought that many City University students would instead attend a State University branch; however, State University enrollments have peaked, and it is doubtful that very many more New York City residents will find their way into SUNY. It was also intended that some of those who formerly would have gone to City will now enroll at private schools. This only continues the folly of bolstering the state's private colleges by dismantling the public ones. One last thought: the most likely consequence of the City University financial crisis is the eventual formation of a state policy to fund the City University at the same levels as the State University. Without fully knowing the final details of parity funding, we wish to caution against an increased committment to the City University which would be balanced by a decreased committment to the State University. This might possibly lead to a rivalry in seeking state funds, which would be truly unfortunate. Fiscal responsibility is necessary. Saving on education is the wrong road to that goal.

You need a band. It tells patriotic things to crowds nothing else can, about presidents and people, and fun, and excitement, and America the beautiful and to hell with issues. There are four bands here for Ford, and the wonderful march from Music Man , “Seventy-six Trombones;” and then there is big, honest, mediocre Jerry Ford in the flesh waving; it stirs the blood, shakes off the miasma of this dreadful election; now we are back in an older tradition, “Tippicanoe and Tyler too,” surely there is nothing wrong with a little festival ... , /took : foksiness.

Saturday, June 12, we were rolling down speaking, speaking all the way, 18 California hours. Jerry Ford, take note. Yes, it was fun... The train slows and telephone polls march slower. People gawking. There is a distant rhythmic throbbing, the band, - “Hail to the Chief!” Correspondents move from club car to platform and with easy familiarity swing back the iron doors and release the floor catch Which brings up the iron plate above the steps. Jump off at the band; where the band is the crowd is and that’s where the engineer will halt the rear platform. The crowd stretches back a block and a half. Truman starts talking; which one will it be this about Grandfather Young and the covered time wagon? No, this time after a brief plug for a federal 28 years ago health insurance program (Imagine! Truman was urging it and still we alone of modern nations don’t have it) he is telling unaffectedly of his great romance with The Boss: “She was five and I was six. 1 sat in front of her, and now and then she used to tap me over the head with a - - - ruler.” (At Los Angeles, when he left the train, a million people saw him; pity he was going to lose; all t|je polls showed Dewey way ahead.) The reporter at a whistle stop jumped off the moving steps, raced the slowing train down the roped platform to the crowd around the band, had his yellow Western Union page against the dusty side of the Ferdinand Magellan at the first yell of the throng when the President appeared and was ready for the climax with the President spacing his words and chip-chopping with his hands, for the party that gave emphasis, “I am talking us that no-account do-nothing Republican Eightieth Congress...” “Give ’em hell, Harry!” somebody shouts. The whistle toots four dimes. “Western, Western. Western!’’ yells the reporter tossing the hasty copy to a messenger boy like throwing a fish to a gull. Away we go. It’ll be a wonder if Truman stops at the MexicD line . . . So there’s my advice, your secret on the special weapon. 1 watched you train that day in Michigan. You’re good at it. A big smile. A big wave. A quick descent from the car, working the crowd. Then roll away like a movie fade-out, down the shining tracks, you and Betty alone on the platform, exeunt waving.

At the same time that we demand continued affirmative action hiring, we assert that the women of this University shall not be pitted against other employees in the struggle to keep jobs. Therefore, we urge.that all personnel cutbacks in this institution be resisted.

Organization for University Women �r W. and Me' Uniruths in film injurious to star's reputation by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor When you consider the multitude of fascinating foitrles, quirks, and oddities that made up the -life and character of W.C. Fields, it's difficult not to wonder why film biography, W.C. Fields and Me, didn't the Great to simply tell the truth. It would have been much decide more entertaining, and' much less injurious to Fields' reputation, if it had. Fields' own work speaks far more eloquently in its own behalf than I could; his blend of transparent bluster, longsuffering-misanthropy (he never.hit a baby unless the toddler attacked him first), and impeccable comic instinct made him the most legendary comedian of the sound cinema. A runaway at eleven, he became the most famous (and funniest) juggler in the world by the tirpe he was a Career he tossed aside for what proved to twenty-one be even greater renown as a star of the Ziegfeld Follies and musical comedy. He later dumped this calling as well to drive crosscountry to California (reportedly with 350 thousand-dpllar bills pinned to his coat lining) and '[continue the film work he started in New York. After a brief lean period, he' hit his screen stride, and remained a star for the rest of his life. full-fledged — mo«|e Butterfingers All well and good. But PV.C. Fields and Me juggles the Fteldsian cirriculum vitae as prodigiously as W.C. did cigar boxes and top hats, and a fraction as dexterously. Fields, whose comedy was always scrupulously clean, is shown being'canned by Ziegfeld for- refusing to dean up a sketch a vulgar, unfunny one which Fields never in fact and cleaned out by a shady investment performed advisor. More crippling than any of this, all of which is totally untrue, is the'fypVs contention that Fields was a sodden drunk whose mind and body were long ravaged by the bottle, to which he turned out of a gnawing loneliness. To he was a lifelong him, "happiness meant quiet insomniac and booze was, above all, a sedative. His memory was faultless, though he often used assumed forgetfulness to dodge having to play humorless lines. According to Mack Sennet, in fact. Fields' timing and skill were better when he was drinking than not. — — - Gin and sympathy Why the change? An important clue is realizing that women, as a whole, have never cared much for-Fields — Rod Steiger as since his screen wives were an endless succession of harpies, who served him cold toast at breakfast and insults at night. The decision was to make Fields sympathetic by converting him into a bulb-nosed reincarnation of Days of Wine and Roses, which he emphatically was not. K But the film still has some entertainment value, above all because of Rod Steiger, who turns in, against all odds, a magnificent portrayal of Fields. Besides looking startlingly like him, thanks to an exemplary makeup job, Stieger hits precisely the right tones of pomposity and sheepish sentiment. And the events that did indeed take place, like his famous spiking of Baby LeRoy's bottle with a shot from his own, ring delightfully true. The "Me" in the title is Carlotta Monti, not only one of Fields’ few surviving friends, but also one of his closest. She was also his mistress, companion, and nurse for some fourteen years. (Ms. Monti was consultant to the film, making the wholesale fabrication all the more inexcusable.) As Carlotta, Valerie Perrine is best when understandbaly, W.C. Fields she's most sincere, she and Steiger showing sympathy an affecting both as characters and actors. What's so funny? Bob Merrill's screenply, based on Monti's book, is currently, voguish scatological stuffed with and body-function jokes, at the expense of any expositions of Fields' own genius. It's only in what Steiger provides in insight that we see any glimmerings of Fields' skill as a clown which is the reason that the film was made in the first place. Perhaps the whole tone of the film can be summed up with the comment that the life of Fields was directed by Arthur Hiller, director of Love Story.

RECORDS Todd Rundgren, Faithful (Bearsville) The advent of summer heralds the release of Faithful. Faithful Todd Rundgren's latest outing revels in Todd's facility to expand in a score of disparate directions and yet never slip or falter. The music is miraculously welded into a Cohesive whole by Rundgren's muse. Some rock purists might be inclined to dismiss the album as an unimaginative, rehash of seminal songs of the sixties, or just another artist paying homage to his roots while the audience -mQst squirm and suffer through his lame indulgences. What these purists neglect to bring into ken, beside their misplaced sacrosanct concern for rock classics, is the attitude and philosophy Todd is attempting to fashion and forge on Faithful. The first side is an anthology of tunes that influenced Todd and have a distinct message of what rock music can become. The album title bespeaks the fact that Todd has chosen to perform the songs exactly in their original context and form. The selection of material performed reveals a close affinity with what Rundgren has done with his music. Todd's music has challenged the, prevalent preconception of rock as meaningless AM commercialized fodder for moronic, malevolent adolescents preoccupied with thstant gratification, a wonder drug to cure acne, and the number of nimble cuties laid with the next three-month time span. The Runt is more interested in developing and mutating his music with a healthy injection of the prophetic and even the educational. Rundgren doesn't see why his music can't carry the baggage of a cogent message as well as being humorous, toughing and just plain entertaining. Perhaps this stems from his own psychic matrix, which is more attracted by the consciousness raising aspects and possibilities of his music than the vacuity of a pop star's life. His exact replications of "Rain", "Strawberry Fields Forever", "If Six Was Nine", "Good Vibrations", "Most Likely You Go Your Way and I'll Go Mine", and "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago", reflect Todd's leanings toward production and songs that ask their audiences to reconsider Assumptions about their lives whether it be conformity or apathy. But for those bent on apathy and conformity the side provides the perfect soundtrack to complete an outdoors summer soiree; curling your toes around the dandelions, sipping mint juleps while ponderously peering and clouds, the soft cumulous contemplating hoodwinking your naive neighbors into thinking it really is Bobby Dylan and the Beach Boys. Either way the collection of tunes served up by Todd have their purpose and an enjoyable one at that. But Faithful soars on albatross wings because — of the Rundgren originals. Side two is crammed with six dandies that clock in at over 27 minutes. The adage, "more is better" seems to hold true most of the time when Todd assembles his albums. The originals verify and reinforce the contention that he is faithful to the transcendental vision that marks the best of rock music. All the originals succeed in being both musically compelling and lyrically searching. "Black and White" is a churning powerhouse of a rocker lamenting the fact that the visionary forces of the music of the sixties have heeded. The rousing choruses ring out against the alleged changes which the sixties supposedly brought about were reformist at best and at worst led to a reactionary backlash. "Love of the Comrtrwi Man" is an eloquent ballad concerned with the /iope of recapturing a sense of community. "When I Pray" is a tongue-in-cheek chant about man's reliance on the cosmic father rather than their own capatilities. Its comical yet gripping choral resounds with the cries of the multitudes pressed within the confining cathedral walls of organized religion. s "Cliche" and "The Verb 'To Love' are infectious, well produced numbers. Todd's critical eye zooms in the words that people pass off as emotion yet .have np inkling of the emotions tied to the words. The sphgs enable Rundgren to exhibit his blue-eyed Phiiw soul background. Gambel and Huff are probably eating their hearts out. "Cliche" 's harpsichord and "To Love" 's dreamy cocktail piano effectively highlight Roger Powell's keyboard abilities. Finally "Boogies (hlamburger Hell)" closes the album and once again Todd is off to the races, brandishing a guitar so hot it creates an inferno. But the Runt isn't too busy rocking to impart a broadside at the mammouth junk food industry. Todd realizes you are what you eat. The song is his Statement to cbunteract the near 50 million dollar advertising onslaught that McDonald's alone saturates the media with. Faithful reconfirms Rundgren's ability to create music with a feel, flow and verve that only his fecund and bohemian mind could produce. Todd's aspirations aren't confined to music. He forsees his leaving music upon reaching the magical age of 30. Rundgren has even talked about the possibility of running for the Presidency. -Ironically enough, he becomes eligible to run for the office in 1984. If his political platform makes half the sense his music does I'll stuff ballots for him. Faithful is an affirmatien of Rundgren's musical" ah aesthetic that seeks out knowledge and love and is characterized by its courage and vision.

Every fact about every person is to be entered on tape, with privacy blocks to prevent unauthorized access. Every medical case would be recorded as well as every business transaction. Every home a person ever lived in, every job ever held, every dime ever spent would all be on fife. But then our ambitious protagonist spoke with a friend who had peripheral connections with the Mafia who laughed at his enthusiasm and idealism, and told him that no one knew how much money there was in the world. No one had yet managed to crack Switzerland, and if they did, other places could be found. No one knows how many unregistered vessels of every kind there are. All medical reports might not be filed, especially if the doctor does not want to pay taxes on the money received. He had forgotten the human factor. Disillusioned, he went to the card file, removedjhis own cards, due to be entered next week, and tore them up. He found a-tiny, secluded little place in the north Atlantic, and built himself a private programming location. He can now place any information into the Data Bank that he wants. Now he works under aliases for Don Walsh, and is paid ridiculously huge sums of money from Walsh's firm, the second largest detective agency in the world, for solving cases they could not.

I still believe that the loud thunder trained by Manny Charlton's fine guitar drowns out the unique yelling lyric pitch of McCafferty's interpretation. On record, that is. When Nazareth comes alive and transforms rock and roll to true artistry you can forget Kiss, you can dispose of J. Ceils, and you can use your last Bad Company record as a frisbee. All these late second generation rock bands have, or had, their good points in the boogie genre. But as Nazareth plays their heart out on stage, and roll heavy metal -rock becomes fresh,' versatile, and most importantly, fun. the any Ask of fifteen-hundred-plus audience at last Century the Theatre Wednesday evening.

The harmonies are clear and crisp but some in the audience scream and whistle to vanish the placid effect. Looking and strutting like Sparks' Ron Mael, McCafferty stalks the stage puppeted by the music's pace. He leads the audience to clapping. I am twenty rows back. He looks at me. I clap. He thanks me. I thank him. He nods. It's that kind of simbiotic evening. It's a relationship where the band is the audience and the audience makes the band. They're Nazareth and they are here. Playing second bill was the Earl Slick Band; Slick is an old cronie of David Bowie's who has one or two albums on the market. If a man christens his band with his name, one would think he could play a good guitar. Slick thinks he can and is overly obnoxious in persevering to prove it. Every song is a medley of guitar solos which are tedious and unflattering in their poor facsimile of Hendrix or Beck via the use of reverb and feedback. The band is lethargic and redundant but is shrewd and er, ah, "slick" enough to fool some of the teeny-boppers in the crowd into clapping and stomping for an encore. —Harold Goldberg received. loud.

For years the dominant members of the English Rand Family, these two musicians delighted rock critics and FM deejays (but few other people) with several unorthodox albums, which can only be termed as. "vaudeville rock". Reaching a creative peak with Fearless and Bandstand, Family disbanded in or around 1974 due to a general lack of public interest (particularly on this side of the Atlantic). Chapman and Whitney soon released an entitled undistinguished .solo LP Streetwalkers, then joined with ex-Jeff Beck Group vocalist Bob Tench (now primarily playing rhythm guitar) to form a band of the same name. Red Card, Streetwalkers' second album, is another the and ' disappointing attempt at mixing loud, guitar-oriented rock and R&B vocal styles, which only really succeeds during its few subtle moments. Although there are a few hints at the former style of Family (the on "Decadence Code", electric twelve-string and vocal on "Hole in Your Pocket), the Streetwalker sound does not approach that of its'parent group for all-around creativity and versatility. For some reason, the songwriting talents of Chapman and Whitney (joined by Tench for three sOngs);seems to have and the lyrics here, deal mostly with debauchery and other boozing, manifestations of machismo. , The instrumental arrangements, supplemented by Whitney and Tench on keyboards, are thoyghtfully worked out and occasionally brilliant .(as on "Run for Cover"),'but the Streetwalkers sorely miss the assistance of Poli Palmer, Family's keyboard man and arranger extraordinaire. Also missing from Red Card are tfie acoustic songs and delicate harmonies which were another key factor in the aesthetic appeal of Family, Chapman's lead vocals, however, are surprisingly restrained here; the raspy, bleating screams which scared away so many potential Family fans are kept to a minimum. Unfortunately, the Fripp and Eno, Evening Star (Antilles) Robert Fripp, enigmatic mentor of King Crimson and thus perhaps the greatest influence in progressive rock, has returned. j It was he who introduced the mellotrop as a major instrument into the realm of rock music, and after seeing it become the foundation of an entire style, he abandoned it almost completely in an effort to return the guitar to its rightful place in music. In doing so, he developed a unique, angular style, somewhat closer to jazz than to rock, but more "Frippian" than anything else. Now, a year and half after the demise of King Crimson, he is back, in a collaboration with Brian Eno, an equally unusual keyboard artist. Fripp stopped The main reason composing and performing had something to do with "taking too much energy'from the universe and not putting enough back." If this trend continued, the universe would be doomed, its end coming in the 1980's. In retiring, he hoped to reverse or at least restrain this trend. So then, why did he come back? Couldn't he stay away from performing, or has he discarded his theories? If he hasn't, how will his convictions affect his music? Will he try te compose, or will he act as an instrumentalist for Eno's ideas? Will he let Eno run the whole show? Tm But enough of speculation, supposed to be doing a record review. Plotel and drummer Nicko. "Crazy Charade", a ditty about Cleopatra and her asp, is an interesting, though mismatched, union of funky rhythm and a rehashed Family riff (from "It's Only a Movie"). The remaining songs ("Shotgun Messiah", "Me an' Me Horse an' Me Rum", and "Between Us") are, for the most part,'messy attempts at R&B which come nowhere near "Run for Cover" or "Roll Up Roll Up" in sustaining interest. So it seems that Chapman and Whitney's Streetwalkers are at their best when reliving the weirdness of Family, an which these abilities would have dovetailed beautifully: Fripp laying down the basic scaffolding and Eno ornamenting it with carefully chosen sounds and instruments. Such was not to be, because each musician identity has maintained his own throughout the whole album. Thus you can find some parts that sound like Fripp compositions, and some more that sould like Eno compositions, but very few that sound like actual Fripp-Eno collaborations. (Which is strange, since all but one of the songs were written by Fripp and Eno together.) This is rather noticeable on side two: a half hour musical piece entitled "An Index of Metals". It is a pastiche of sounds a collage of instruments layered upon each other. The order is simple: one movement flowing into the next. The movements themselves have no structure; they are just composed of unordered sounds, although you can hear an occasional bass or guitar riff. "Index" is more intruguing than interesting, especially when heard over a set of stereophones, whereby none of the sounds are lost. From the Debussy-like "Wind on Water" to the Eno composition "Wind on Wind", (which sounds like a bunch of fog horns tuning up for a concert, but it's interesting anyway) side one has a bit more variety. It also has the best song on the album; the title track. This is a vintage — Td like to say that Evening Star is a fantastic album, the best thing to be released this year, but I honestly cannot. It is admittedly very good, yet it is not a true dual effort. Fripp is a structuralist; his main concern is the arrangement of notes and not the variety of instruments that can produce them. Eno is pretty much the opposite.. He tends to experiment with tone color and sound layering, while structure is relegated at best to a secondary position. Given their respective talents, Fripp and Eno could have put together something in Page eight . The Spectrum Friday, 4 June 1976 . acoustic" voice once-interesting melodies make Chapman's limitations all too apparent: Whitney's electric guitar playing, much moie predominant than before, has improved, albeit in the direction of hard rock, as the' blazing solo on Otis Blackwell's "Daddy Rolling Stone" attests to. "Roll Up Roll Up", one of Red Card's better (and most Family-ish) offerings, features a nice harmony slide guitar break (a new medium for Whitney), as well as excellent, jazzy backup by bassist John objective they probably did not have in mind when forming it. There is no reason in the world that these two should not be able to produce an outstanding album on their own, but they haven't done it yet. Maybe theirs was a Family that should —John Duncan have prayed together. . . Fripp composition. The stage is set by two guitars, one playing a couple of three-note riffs while the other plays a rhythm similar to that heard in "Lament" (a King Crimson song). Within this framewqrk, Fripp glides from one note to another on a different guitar somewhat consonant, sometimes — dissonant, sometimes harmonizing with himself, but never boring. Eno occasionally adds a few simple keyboard note progressions which round the song out perfectly. The brief following track, "Evensong", is also worth noting because it is the closest thing to a Fripp-Eno collaboration on this album. It starts out with Eno repeating a seven note motif on a weird sounding keyboard instrument. Fripp joins in on guitar and keeps adding different sounding riffs until the motif, but not its feeling, is completely obscured. In all, it is quite a pleasant As song. I have said before. Evening Star is a good album, not a great one. This, I believe, is due to the fact that it relies too much on Eno and not enough on Fripp. To most people, this music will probably sound like the soundtrack to some science fiction or avant-garde film, but it should please those whose tastes are esoteric or just plain weird. Fripp and Eno are cultivating a viable offshoot of progressive rock, even if it is mutated almost recognition. —Eugene Zielinski Prodigal Sun f �Sub-Board : - UUAB constitution okayed by Bert Black Staff Writer Spectrum of Sub Board 1 approved a ne\fc constitution for the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) and appointed a Publications Division Director at their May meeting two weeks agoSub Board I is a not-for-profit corporation funded by voluntary contributionsrfrom each of the six student governments. It provides student services through its Norton Hall, Publications, Health Care and UUAB Divisions. Sub Board’s total budget last year topped $350,000. The new UUAB Constitution redefines the relationship between Division personnel and Sub Board by placing “Ultimate responsibility” for all UUAB business on the Division Director, while delegating all responsibility for financial matters to the Business, Manager. These,responsibilities were formerly undefined. The new Constitution, unlike its predecessor, also makes the UUAB standing Committee Chairpersons responsible to the Division Director. Formation of a UUAB Hearing Goard, to meet at least once a semester to review and'discuss division policies, was also approved. Membership will consist of the Sub Board Directors, UUAB’s Division Director and Business Manager, and two UUAB Committee Chairpersons of the Director’s choice. . Controversial appointment The appointment of Williarh Finkelstein as Publications Division Director was approved by only two of the seven voting members present. The other five members abstained after heated discussion of Finkelstein’s qualifications. Student Association (SA) President and Sub Board representative Steve Schwartz expressed reservations about Finkelstein’s ability to get along with people. When Sub Board Treasurer Art Lalonde was asked why the Personnel and Appointments Finkelstein for Committee recommended he had confidence said the Committee appointment, in Finkelstein’s ability to do a large amount of hard work. He indicated that the committee did not have such confidence in former Division Director Marvin Miles, the other applicant under consideration by the board. This led to a proposal by Schwartz that both the appointment be position itself and reviewed in September. Sclwartz noted that the Publications Division Directorship was “a job that hasn’t done anything yet” and whose functions are not yet clearly defined. Revitalization Finkelstein agreed. “It’s a good policy. Periodic review is essential, especially for a position that does not have firmfy established guidelines.” He said his first priority would be to determine the function of his job. In other business, the Directors approved the appointment of Susan Cassuto as UUAB Division Director. A letter from UUAB Dance and Drama co-chairperson Yvonne James was read into the record, expressing disapproval of the Directors failure to appoint Abdullah Wahaab as the Division Director, Hames cited several positions previously held by Wahaab in her letter. In the Health Care Division, Barbara Pientka was appointed Business Manager, and Stephanie Aronow and Jamie Westfall were approved as co-directors of the Human Sexuality Center. A1 Campgana, Division Director since the establishment of the Health Care Division, announced that he will resign as soon as the Directors find a replacement. Sub Board Vice Chairman Mitch Zoler presented a report to the Directors that proposed continuance of the Amherst Campus Division next year as both an informational source and a “facilitator” of Sub Board’s move to the new campus. Applications, will be available until Wednesday in room 214 Norton, for the position. The post is expected to be filled at the next Sub Board meeting on June 10. Sub Board Chairman Jon Roller informed the Board that he has been appointed head of the Parcel B Advisory Board, a group of students, faculty, staff and alumni who will advise the DBF Corporation on developmertt of the new Amherst Campus shopping Threatening skies forced Governor Hugh Carey to forsake his original intentions of an outdoor dedication of the Ellicott Complex and, instead, retreat into the shelter of the Bubble, along with an audience who attended by invitation only.

The playoffs ended disappointingly for the baseball Bulls this year. After the Bulls beat Princeton 4-2 and St. John’s 4-1, the East Coast Athletic Conference’s double elimination setup meant that all the Bulls had to do was beat St. John’s once more before the Redmen beat Buffalo twice. But that wasn’t as easy as it sounded, since St. John’s entered the tournament at 29-4-1, compared to the Bulls 25-13. The Redmen won twice, 8-1 and 9-3, and advanced to the NCAA Regional Playoffs. The Bulls opened the tournament by jumping on Princeton’s starting pitcher Mark Softy for a run in the first inning. Jim Mary singled and then the (.519 nation’s leading hitter John Buszka pre-tournament) singled, sending Mary to third. A groundout by John Kidd scored Mary. The game remained 1-0 until the fifth when consecutive doubles by the Tigers Glenn Christy and Ed Kuchar tied the game. But in the bottom of the sixth the Bulls broke the game open. Buszka walked, but was forced out at second by'another Kidd grounder. Then designated hitter John Mineo singled and Mike Dixon walked on a 3-2 ’pitch. Bulls’ centerfielder Dan Gorman then hit a sacrifice fly to right, scoring Kidd and Mike Groh executed a perfect hit-and-run play to score Mineo from second. - Fine play Buffalo continued their fine play later that day — — just wanted to say 355 Norton Hall 831-3610 10% discount for students with I.D.’s Mechanics on duty days and We work on Foreign cars also.

Bulls pitcher Jim Riedel was suffering from terrible wildness (12 walks in seven innings); but was unhittable. Riedel even walked four men in a row in the fifth inning, but avoided yielding a run when he picked Eric Restin off third base between the third and fourth walks. Buffalo scored three runs in the ninth, when the Redihen infielders misplayed two bunts and a slow roller. Then Bpszk-a laid down a perfect bunt which St. John’s never hatha chance to mishandle. But Buffalo’s domination seemed to vanish into the night, and the next day they weren’t the same team. The Bulls hitters, which had been leading the nation with a .372 team average, fell silent. The Bulls’ pitchers still had trouble getting the ball over the plate, and every ground ball seemed to take a bad hop. Mary doubled for Buffalo in the first inning, Buszka singled him to third, and Dixon’s sacrifice fly scored the run. And after that, the Bulls were lifeless. They managed' two hits in the next eight innings, as the Redmen’s Tom Raponi retired the last twelve Buffalo batters. St. John’s put the game out of reach in the sixth inning. Their first seven batters reached base, four via walks and three with singles, as they tallied four singles won-loss record in the political school's history.

SA budget to pass without public forum by Laura Bartlett Camput Editor , Y Strife within his department by Marty Schwartz Spectrum Staff Writer The Speech Communication Faculty approved 7 to 4 Monday a no-confidence resolution against Department Chairman. Molefi Asante, and have demanded his immediate resignation. The resolution stated that since the controversy surrounding Asante’s reappointment in October, 1975, Asante “has demonstrated continued contempt and utter disrespect for his faculty and their rights to participation and consultation in academic matters affecting them and the Department.” It also said that Asante has resorted “to libel, harassment, unprofessional behavior and political expediency instead of sound academic judgement.” - . ... .W~ V' The faculty voted on the resolution at a meeting in which Social Science Provost Arthur Butler explained his reasons for cutting a faculty member in the Department. According to one faculty person, the line was lost because of “internal contention” and that the resources could be better utilized in other areas. The faculty member quoted Butler as saying that he would only recommend expansion if the internal contention were resolved, and that it was up to the faculty to get together. Butler reportedly said he “supported Asante, that he appointed him, and that he supports him even more i today.” Professor Charles Petrie said the resolution was passed in frustration by the faculty, at being put in a position of either “toeing the line or being retrenched.” He claimed that the Department has been threatened by Butler and that the provost implied that Asante can make all the decisions if he so chooses. of the grievances have been over academic questions and violations of due process. In one instance involving a senior faculty member, Asante was condemned by a Faculty Senate committee in March for violating due process. The general complaints against Asante stem from the autocractic manner in which he runs the Department, one professor said. Asante has continually by-passed and overruled the Admission and- Standards Committee on appointments of Graduate Assistantships and Graduate Students, and has hired professors without the full faculty ever meeting them or reviewing their credentials, the professor continued. Following the no-confidence vote Monday afternoon,.faculty member Gerald Golhabber, who introduced the resolution, said Asante gave a verbal order to the secretaries not to type any of his [Golhabber’s] papers or run 6ft any of his work. Goldhabber claimed Asante said that “unless ' Wave of retribution Passage of the resolution was a response to what some members of the Department called a “wave of political retribution and vindictiveness” against those graduate students and faculty who do not support Asante's positions or his reappointment. They claimed' Asanle's alleged abuses' range from promoting graduate students who favored him, regardless of whether they met the objective criteria of the Department's Admission and Standards Committee, to using the budget cuts in an attempt io purge dissident younger faculty. The net effect has been “to polarize the Department around those who support him and those who do not,” one graduate student claimed. Neither Asante nor faculty members supporting him would comment on the record on the validity of the charges in the resolution. However, one graduate student who called The Spectrum, said the resolution had absolutely nothing to do with Asante’s academic or administrative competence, but that it was, strictly motivated by racism and a continual power struggle amongst a few professors. Another graduate student claimed, however, that “that faculty that voted against Asante’s initial reappointment were faculty that originally voted to bring Asante here or those he (Asante] personally hired. Thus; the only issue is over his lack of managerial skills (and not racism dr power].” _ Me? Nervous? When asked if he felt actually threatened or in physical danger, Spiegel said no. “If I had thought something was going to happen. I wouldn’t have stood up on that chair!”, he said. He said it was an “emergency situation,” in which he did what he felt he had to, and was nervous about it only when fte thought about it later. Following the meeting, ht and other SA officials and Assembly representatives conferred with Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti and his assistant Ron Stein. Spiegel said Lorenzetti was in the process of leaving the office when they arrived, and thus did little but “try to calm us down.” With Stein, they discussed the technical aspects of the budgeting process facing. the Executive Committee. Friday’s meeting followed two other stormy sessions on Wednesday and Thursday in which only the SA Office Budget, Stipends, SASU dues, Sub Board and Athletics allocations were acted upon by the Assembly, leaving some 100 clubs and organizations untouched. ' Spiegel said when it became apparent during Wednesday’s meeting that members of the student services organizations (NYPIRG, Community Action Corps [CAC] and the Legal Aid Clinic) were unhappy with their recommended allocations, the- meeting was ‘. 1/ . recessed. Wednesday evening SA officials met withrepresentatives from the services and minority organizations. A revised budget was hammered out which satisfied the services groups, but not the minorities. Thursday’s session was also disrupted by unhappy students, but Speigel was able to maintain control long enough to call for a recess. Members of the Black Student Union (BSU) and the Third World Vet* , . then took charge of the meeting. >’• , - Adjournment of last Friday’s meeting of the Financial Assembly eliminated any chance for that body to consider or pass any of the Student Association’s (SA) 13-page budget proposals before today, the end of the academic year. Therefore, as stipulated in the SA constitution, the budgets will be considered by the Executive Committee. SA Executive Vice President Steve Spiegel said the deadline for them to do so is mid July. The Assembly’s adjournment was necessitated by disruptions and threats of physical violence by a number of students unhappy with the recommended allocations for minority organizations. Moments after Spiegel called the meeting to order, the tables at which he and the Executive Committee sat were turned over and his microphone was grabbed away. Spiegel then stood .up on a chair and attempted to regain control of the meeting. “I went out of my way to outshout them to tell them I would call for adjournement, and that the Executive Committee would pass the budget if I did,” he said. “Then I explained it to the Assembly and took the vote.” He said the Executive Committee had already discussed the tense situation that would face them at Friday’s meeting, and planned what they would do if things got “out of hand.” “Things were never quite ‘in hand’,” Spiegel said. “But everybody did what we had planned,” as did a person who had agreed to second the motion. ‘4 Grievances Since he arrived here in 1973, Asante had seven four from graduate grievances filed against him — students ' Lashing out Goldhabber claimed it was “strictly a vindictive move on the part of the chairman to strike out against those who will speak out against him. The proof of his vindictiveness lies in the fact that he is standing in the way of a professor who’s attempting to do his job, namely present the result of his research. Goldhabber was once the vice chairman of the Department, according to one facility member and three from faculty.

Lee Clju's Resfeui^qt We offer you the finest Chinese Food No promises Spiegel said not enough Assembly members remained at this meeting to conduct business, but the session served to allow people to “let off steam.”That evening, he and other SA officials met with BSU minority organization members to see if an agreement similar to the one reached with the services groups could be found. A tentative agreement was reached which was subject to approval by the Finance Committee. On Friday before the meeting, however, when Spiegel told the minority groups that the terms of the agreement would not be met completely, was promising these they were angered. “I think they took it to mean I things to them,” he said. —continued on page 18— your work is meant for the classroom, I’m using my discretion to determine whether our clerical staff should do your work. Hire a secretary outside to handle your convention papers and joilnal articles,” Asante reportedly said. Goldhabber claimed he had paid for the paper out of his own pocket, but that in any event, “it is standard practice, for a professor is hired to teach and to do research and then present his/her-results and that’s what Department resources are for.” * .

JudaicStudies given a one year reprieve The Judaic Studies program at this University has been given at least one more year to live, according to its only faculty member, Michael Silverman. Silverman was granted a contract this month that will enable him to continue teaching his Judaic Studies courses, althoughlie has not received his expected tenure as yet. It was feared earlier in the year that the Judaic Studies program would weaken or even dissolve because of the possible denial of Silverman’s tenure, combined with the University’s budget cuts and the hiring freeze imposed by Governor Carey. In an earlier interview with The Spectrum, Silverman said students would still be able to take Judaic Studies courses that were cross-listed with other departments, yet emphasized that a random sprinkling of courses would be academically ineffective. “While there still may be a Judaic Studies course in peripheral areas,” Silverman said, “the program cannot be run satisfactorily and give students a decent education in the area without core courses.” Once fully alarmed by the situation, Silverman filed a grievance which resulted in the rescue of the program. “The death sentence has been averted for a year,” he said. Silverman contended that Judaic Studies is “as legitimate a field as English,” and that many students in the University are interested in its courses. Although the program does not offer a regular BA degree, it is possible to attain a special major in the field. Silverman has been a co-sponsor for most of the people who have taken the special majors. jjEWISlTSTUDENTUNIONI * witt beholding - Tomorrow night »7:30 pm344 Norton I Positions open k - !

This place is Zoar Valley. The Zoar is not a public park in the official sense. It is a valley which has been sold, section by section, to a number of private landowners. Most of these landowners are farmers, and therefore, much of the immediate area surrounding the gorge has been left untouched since farming there is highly unfeasible. The Cattaraugus Creek cuts through Zoar Valley and is responsible for its gorge, formed during the Ice Age. As most of the region is comprised of loose shale and other glacial deposits, the land is soft 'and most unstable. The creek has cut down through two hundred feet of shale in some places. The result of this erosion is both the beauty of the high cliffs, and their inherent danger. Because of the relative weakness of the shale, climbing on and leaning over the edge of these cliffs is extremely hazardous. While no statistics are available, it is common knowledge among the people who live near the valley that many deaths and injuries have occurred as a result of attempted climbs. Adding to both the beauty and the danger is the presence of many smaller Sunday kicks off anniversary fest 20,000 visitors are expected for the annual Over Community-University Day on Sunday, which will start a week-long celebration of this University’s 130th Anniversary. The planned afternoon activities, all of which will take place on the Amherst Campus, will include an air-conditioned bus tour of the campus and interior tours of the various completed buildings and facilities.

It includes a basketball free-throw contest, co-educational volleyball, an exhibition by the womens’ tennis team, a judo demonstration and a first aid display.” The Music Department will present Tchaikovsky’s 1812 Overture performed by the UB Symphony Band and Tonawanda Post 264 American Legion Band on the second-floor terrace of the Ellicott Complex. Also scheduled is an all women’s barbershop quartet ‘The Baird Belles,” an “Hour of Big Band Sounds” by the UB Jazz Ensemble, and a University Opera Studio presentation. President Robert Ketter and his staff will be available for conversation and information in the Fargo Quadrangle Dining Hall. There will also be an “information arena” to answer questions on academic programs, admissions and financial aid in the same location. Other events planned for the University’s 130lh Anniversary week include rededicalion of the Ellicott Complex, a Bicentennial Flag Raising on Tuesday, May 11th, and the General Commencement on Sunday, May 16th. r - brooks which feed the Cattaraugus- These brooks weaken the already soft ground, and add to its instability. Hours may be spent exploring these brooks, wandering through the surrounding woods, climbing hills and finding one of the many waterfalls that cascade over the rock and clay. At least one of these waterfalls empties into a small swimming hole, a genuine delight in hot weather. According to a historian in of Zoar’s Gowanda, one neighboring communities, the Valley has gone through a number of changes over the years. It was first settled in the early 19th Century, when many early inhabitants built saw mills and grist mills on the many streams in the area. Because the valley drains over seven hundred square miles of Allegheny foothills, there was more than enough water power for everybody. Power company In fact, the Mohawk Power Company recently bought the rights to build a power plant on the Cattaraugus, but luckily they could find no stable land upon which to build. The pollution and topological destruction this would have caused has therefore been avoided. The area developed quickly for two reasons.

Another famous painting of that era is “The Spirit of ’76” which is also the recipient of false popular beliefs.

His appearance was deliberately timed to coincide with finals so as to attract as tittle attention from students as possible. Yet, if all goes well, he will be greeted by an orderly, visible demonstration by campus and community groups who wish to make known their outrage at the crisis facing public higher education in our state today. It was Hugh Carey who promised two years ago that should he be elected governor, the state, not the students, ligher education, with in the SUNV witnessed increasing cutbacks in elimination of State University md professional school students, by Mindy Lubber The year of the Bicentennial is an appropriate time for us all to reflect on our roles, or more precisely the “peoples” role in our democracy. Ideally, it is the responsibility of the citizen to be eternally vigilant of government and government officials. However, this has never been the case, and presently it is further from reality than at any time in American history. The sheer size and complexity of our government on all levels makes citizenship a complicated job. The average citizen has too little time to gain the knowledge of government to apply oneself effectively to fighting today’s social problems. As a result, government continues to grow, as we citizens delegate away our respoeiibffity and authority. In response to this teak «>f citizen participation in societal probteiW. we must look university at the role or our universities. To has two functions: orte it to provide “knowledge” and the other Is to explore the application of this “knowledge” to solving societal problems. The first is to a large degree fulfilled, but it is in the satisfaction ofthe second tha{ we fall short. The reason is that current problems are seldom incorporated into our academic curriculum. For example, the possible economic collapse of New York City, Buffalo and the SUNY system directly affects all of us as citizens and students. Yet 1 have no knowledge of these issues ever being critically examined in any economics course. Certainly they could fit into any professor’s curriculum and be discussed at any level of sophistication. But as a rule, they are ignored. At a time when students are becoming more involved with their coinmunities, the educational system continues to stay away from these issues. It is a gils it a given that academia be isolated from the surrounding environment to be . effective? I accept the fact that classroom teaching has to be abstract to some extent, but this does not mean that current, problems should be completely ignored. Where is there a better environment to analyze community problems except the universities? I cannot imagine any ; likes, the closing of academic , across that state, retrenching of and lots more. Unless there is a public universities will soon they were intended to be, as can afford to attend them.

Management courses could deal with the mismanagement of city funds, economics courses with the demand for city and state bonds, sociology courses with the problems of those living in the inner cities, engineering courses with the technological problems of rebuilding the dilapidated ghettos, and so on My main concern is that we stop studying, analyzing, and critiquing hypothetical cases relevant to ten years past. When we add to this another ten years before we will be in a position to apply this knowledge, the case for incorporating current problems into the classroom becomes even stronger. Students tend to be aware of the complex iAter-retationsbips between the country’s economic troubles, the energy crises, and the continuing threat to our environment. But since we lack the ability to apply our book knowledge, it becomes difficult for us to understand and analyze those interrelationships. Hence our solutions are at a. micro level and often — non-optimal. This dilemma gives us no incentive to deal with the thousands of problems surrounding us, and it leaves us uncaring. We as citizens should be finding the information that is needed to make intelligent decisions necessary for a true democracy and infusing the “public interest” into areas that too long have been dominated by corporate, political, and other special interests. Bril success at being “good” citizens requires practical training and preparation; ingredients notably lacking at the undergraduate level. The University was organized for educational purposes. but it seems to have excluded a major concern of instructing and training its members as responsible citizens. The only fundamental solution to many of today’s problems is through the education a university can supply, but the solutions, if they arrive, often arrive too late. If our democracy is to ever approach its potential, a sophisticated and knowledgeable citizenry will be the key, only possible through a more relevant education process. 1976 200 years after our government was first conceived is the year to begin to rededicate ourselves to this goal. - - is if Carey is going to make empty promises he knows he cannot keep, we must see to it that he eats his Street talk To the Editor.

When I used the words, “instrumentation was heavenly,” they expressed the thought 1 had intended. If they were not my intended words they would not have been used. If Paul looks in the dictionary, he will find that connotations may be suggested by words or things. So he thought wrong when he said the term applied only to words. The phrase “back on the set” is a figure of speech. It’s what you can call “street talk.” Evidently Paul is not hip to street language at all and he probably had a very hard time reading my review of the Trammps new album too. So 1 suggest that he skip over my album reviews totally. Regarding his question, “how long is a couple of years?”, a couple of years is as long as it takes Kook and The Gang to come out with a new jam (album, Paul).

A The Spectrum interview of two United Farm Worker Support Committee members appeared in the March 3 edition. A copy of the article just arrived via an East coast friend. If it is not too late. I’d like to correct some of the misstatements made by the UFW supporters. On April 21, in San Diego, Cesar Chavez indicated that the UFW ‘‘May have to resort to boycotts” if the UFW’s proposed California Initiative fails. Yet, The Spectrum clearly indicated there is still a boycott. Obviously, Roger Glasgow and Steve Vitoff are living in the past. Unfortunately, they also demonstrate an abysmal ignorance of UFW policies. The E. & J. Gallo Winery, for example, has consistently supported bringing all American farmworkers under the rules and procedures of the National Labor Relations Act, thereby guaranteeing all farmworkers the right to a free secret ballot election to choose a union. The UFW has consistently opposed the NLRA. Besides guaranteeing secret ballot elections, it also does away with secondary boycotts. Yet, the two UFW supporters are advocating the NLRA for farmworkers, thereby'placing them at odds with the UFW. (By the way, the UFW position on the NLRA has consistently astounded me. If farmworkers vote in a free secret ballot election, why do you need a secondary boycott? A secondary boycott is an attempt to force an employer to sign a contract with a union without workers having a say.) The Spectrum article then discussed the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act. The E. & J. Gallo Winery supported the passage of this law because of our long history supporting legislation that provides secret ballot elections for farmworkers. The electipns held to date, under the California Agricultural Labor Relations Act, reveals that (contrary to statements of UFW Public Relations people), all farmworkers do not wish to belong to the UFW just as all farmworkers do not wish to belong to the Teamsters Union. 1 enclose a summary sheet received from the Agricultural Labor Relations Board. You will note Forceful that many elections have been held where the ballot reads “UFW versus no union.” The UFW has won most of these electkyis, indicating that given a choice, farmworkers generally tend to favor unionization. Please note that there have been only 125 elections where farmworkers had the clear choice of voting for the UFW or the TFamsters or no union. Where both unions appeared on the ballot, the Teamsters are ahead by a narrow margin. The UFW supporters indicate "it merely wants a living wage for its workers.” Please note that Gallo farmworkers are guaranteed by their Teamsters contract a minimum of S3.36 per hour up to S4.25 per hour depending on job classification. Plus fringe benefits, paid pension plan, paid vacation, paid holidays, premium paid overtime, paid health paid life insurance, and paid insurance, unemployment insurance. On September 19, 1975, Gallo farmworkers voted in a secret ballot election, supervised by the State Agricultural Labor Relations Board. Gallo farmworkers voted 223 Teamsters, 131 UFW and 0 votes for no union. An additional 195 ballots were challenged. The challenged ballots are now being adjudicated and no amount of boycotting (which Mr. Chavez indicates no longer is taking place) can effect the outcome of this election. It is in the hands of the Agricultural Labor Relations Board. The E. & J. Gallo Winery is 100 percent union from grape to bottle. Besides Gallo’s 199 permanent employs more and 300 seasonal than 2,000 members of Ihree different AFL-CIO unions, Our history of unionization dates back more than 30 years. Of the 2.2 million farmworkers in this country, less than 60,000 belong to a union, any union. There are no union farmworkers in the State of New York. Should not time, money and effort be directed towards unionizing this vast non-union population rather than attacking a 100 percent union winery? Much remains to be done for farmworkers throughout the country. Let’s get on with it. Daniel J. Solomon Communications Direction E. J. Gallo Winery, & Modesto, California lobbying To the Editor I thoroughly enjoyed your recent column on hints for prospective student lobbyists and wanted to let you know that I think you did a very good job of capturing the situation involving both the Member of Congress, and the lobbyists just prior to a vote on a particular legislative issue. The students that I encountered prior to the recent House vote to an amendment (obey-Roybal) to increase the appropriation for the Basic Opportunity Grant program were very articulate in and regard to the merits of the BEOG program made thoughtful comments that helped me support the amendment. I am pleased that the amendment did pass by a wide margin, and will raise the amount appropriated for the BEOG program by $315 million which will prevent college students across the country from having their grants reduced next year. - As you know, the BEOG program is- the foundation of the federal financial structure designed to assist the college student meet the high costs of higher education. Many questions were raised in conjunction with the proposed amendment to increase the appropriation for this program and I am pleased to say that the student lobbyists on Capitol Hill that day were instrumental in getting the facts out on the need for the amendment, and the projected repercussions of failure to Adopt the / amendment. The Second Supplemental Appropriation bill containing the amendment is now before the Senate. If the student lobbyists do as good arjob explaining to the Senators the need for the BEOG increase as they did to members of the House, I am confident the amendment will remain intact. To the Editor. As student choreographers who participated in this year’s dance repertory concert, we wish to express our thanks to Joan VerDun for her time and effort in putting this concert together. We found Ms. VerDun’s comments and suggestions helpful, and appreciated her accessability. Working in the concert valuable experience for both of us. We would also like to correct certain misconceptions that may have been engendered by a latter published in The Spectrum last Friday. To begin with, it is untrue that no guidance was given to choreographers until the last three weeks before the concert. Both of us were present at a preliminary rehearsal on March 25th, at which time all works in progress were discussed and criticized, including Cindy Ickes and June Guralnik’s piece. It was understood that revisions might be necessary after subsequent viewings. Furthermore, it had been made clear at the beginning of the semester that rehearsals for student pieces would take place outside of class was a ■- time. We doubt that many choreographers have avoided aggravation and frustration while preparing a dance for performance. Nevertheless, we feel in this case, it was a small price to pay in light of what we learned. Lorrie Indyke Cheryl Johnson Give us a break To the Editor. The enlightening editorial by Keith Friedlander shows some of the many modes by which students get raw deals via the education business. We are forced to deal with monopolies (food service), have members of the business world dictate University policy to enhance their profits (Cavages), and are constantly getting less for our money (an increase in tuition coupled with a decrease in services and budget cuts). The last one gets me the most. More tuition, less education. Now for the double ripoff. The Bookstore is the villian here. As we all know, it charges retail, profit making, prices. Now this is a: 1) State Institution, 2) Educational Institution, 3) Service (?) to students, and should be 4) non profit. However, I’m sure profit is made, plus. “Plus what,” you ask? Why 7 percent! Notice we still have to pay state tax on all items, even those under the guise of “necessity” to our education. I feel that books purchased for a course here from the Bookstore should not have tax charged on them. We contributed to the state when we paid our tuition (and its increases).

On May 3rd in “the President’s report on resource reductions and reallocations,’’ Robert Ketter addresses us with innocent amazement: “Some persons are still expressing surprise at the realization that it is necessary, as a result of the fiscal situation, for the University to release faculty and staff.” It is not the quoted realization that is generating surprise and anger, nor simply the valid frustration many are feeling as their means of subsisting is pulled out from under them. What is being realized, with frightening swiftness to many, is the silhouette of the social force that directs this University, whose interests this University was erected to serve, and the clarification of philosophical and structural direction that surfaces during times of “tight” economy, such as the present. We are all coming to recognize that incidents which might have once, to some, appeared coincidental, such as the struggle of nationally respected programs, American Studies, and Women’s Studies, to name a few, that worsen with the expansion of University areas that serve local industrial interests, are not coincidences. In 1969, and 1970, we were confronted with these political priorities, and we recognized that ROTC, and nuclear defense were not priorities in our University, but that direction in form of residential colleges, and day care, were. It is the re-emergence of this conflict of interests under slightly altered circumstances that surprises some of us, and angers others. We get angry when it becomes painstakingly obvious, that this is not our University that it only moves in small steps towards that direction when conditions force us to fight for this. I mention these thoughts for two reasons: 1. It is summer, the traditional time for introducing the most reactionary administrative - decisions. 2. I have had the dubious honor of a ringside seat to the installation of one of these decisions. The security system that is being installed at the Department of Art is only the first emergence of a policy that is planned and being installed throughout the University. That this sytem becomes a physical reality at the same time' that the University is cutback where it attempts to reach out into the community is no coincidence. That this system will completely and effectively lock the doors that have been closed through pernicious funding allocations is an enforcement of University policy. As the University is directed away from people and towards the anarchistic development of industrial whims, people who must pay for this direction will realize the need to appropriate for themselves what is rightfully theirs. These security systems are being designed to combat this. It is we because access to who steal from this University educational and living materials is constantly frustrated. We are the thieves to be Iqpked out; we are paying for this privilege behind the guise of “our - own interests.” some It is summer, and we will be away physically, some spiritually. If we are here, let’s watch the University and its administration as it moves. If we are away, let’s use this time to develop further our awareness of these conflicts, and the resultant repression. In the fall, it will take many times the battle waved in 1969 and 1970 to redirect the reactionary movement of this institution. - Alan Friedman r *Dapt. of A* iv r .V* • , Last but not least, our roommates, Fra “.

Friday 1 saw an ad in The Spectrum from Grolier, announcing that there were 25 positions open for the summer. The ad stated that the positions offer a $630 monthly guarantee. I worked for Grolier last summer and I want to inform students of my experience so that they will not fall into the same trap as I did. When people read the ad, most of them figure, “I’ll never get that job.” The truth is, everyone gets hired. What the job boils down to is selling encyclopedias door to door fof commission. At Grolier, they call it “promoting.” Whatever you call it, the job involves knocking on doors, getting into someone’s house, and trying to convince them that the educational package you have for them (including encyclopedias) is worth $600. The material you will show people is of the highest calibre and definitely worth the money. Convincing another person of that is another story. Working four 60-hour weeks, I made a total of $60. I wrote four orders in that time. Of these, three either cancelled or could not receive credit, so 1 got my commission on one order. My experience was similar to that of many others, although the common pattern is to work a week of two (60 hours a week) an4 quit after making no money. At Grolicr, the management is great at telling you how easy the job is. If you go to work for them, they’ll have you believing that you can make $1200 a month. Everyone eventaully finds that this is not true. They do a great psyche job on you and keep you hanging on, convinced that you’ll start writing orders tomorrow. At Grolier, there are two ways of making money. You get paid $60 for each order you write. than 11 orders a month ($660) they If you write tell you that you’ll get the rest of the $630 which you are “guaranteed.” This guarantee, though, is only if you have made 60 presentations of the program that month (excluding showing it to friends). What happens in reality is that after a couple of weeks you realize that you can never make your 60 presentations and you are now working for commission. They are very slick at Grolier and will have you convinced of how easy it is to make a lot of money. This is simply not true. But many people find out too late. I am hoping that others are not fooled this summer as 1 was last summer. Elliott Witkin Business or school To the Editor. With many worthwhile clubs and organizations getting their budgets cut back, I think we should abolish all student stipended positions. S.A. stipends alone, for the coming year, amount to about $12,000. Instead of paying students money to run the student government and newspaper, academic credit should be given. In this way we would have a government and newspaper of better quality since the students running them would have more time and energy to put into their work. I know from working on The Spectrum that even to put out a fair-to-poor issue requires a lot of work from a lot of people. Working in these organizations can be a great learning experience; there is no reason why a different plan couldn’t be worked out.

Barry Malzberg writes a short introduction to each story in the collection The Best of Barry N. Malzberg (Pocket Books, $1.95). He says in the opening paragraph to the last story in the book that “at the time of this writing (July 23, 1975 ...), I have made the irrevocable decision to write no more science fiction.” If he sticks by his promise, the genre will have lost a truly great artist. The stories of Barry Malzberg are usually dark and forboding, with an occasional light beam playing across their craggy surfaces as a delightful surprise or as a touch of whimsy. His sense of the strange can be all too realistic and frighteningly plausible. In “Culture Lock” he deals with a 1 future in which gay relations are perfectly free and in which the love has gone. The total achievement of gay rights and the all-inclusive acceptance of gay love by society and its controllers has taken away, much of the inherent mystique that their places as forbiddens have instilled in their practitioners. The horror of the story is the embracing of that loss by the characters as a natural condition. In “Fin de Sieclethe first story in Future Without Future by Jacques Sternberg (Seabury/Continuum, $6.95), the major character keeps a diary. The entry for October 4, 1999 reades, in part: "...And to prevent any risk of any commemoration whatever, the Center for Distribution of Time regularly suppresses, every year, the third of October. ” If black humor is the holding up of a warped mirror to the viewer, the showing of a possible but distorted reality, then Sternberg has indeed mastered that art. “Vacation’ will utterly destroy you. Its too-close resemblence to the reality of too many past vacations will haunt you all the summer. (Maybe you had better read this one in late August.) I presume that there are graduations of humor and that the next step up from black humor could conceivably be somewhere in the range of the purples. The Cyberiad: Fables for the Cybernetic Age by Stanislaw Lem (Seabury/Continuum, $9.50) would probably wind up in the low indigo range or maybe high lavendar. Meet Trurl and Klapaucius, two of the most unlikely and likeable wierdos-heroes you will ever come across. If Max Sennett were ever to do sci-fi flicks, these two characters would be his stars. The action takes place in the far distant future tomorrow. The universe is populated by robots and other living devices, all of which have been built by the robots. -Trurl and Klapaucius are “constructors,” which means they build things like more robots, but robots with a difference. For instance, Trurl builds an eight-story-tall thinking machine which does simple arithmetic but always comes up with the wrong answer and stoutly defends its inaccuracy by trying to kill its inventor. (If that doesn’t sound too funny I can only suggest you read the story.) For the most part, the book is a collection of loosely-joined short stories each in the form of a “Sally,” which is a trip, not a this medium of trollop. Through expression they go from the. delightfully sublime to the hilariously abusrd. The find fable about the palefaces is well worth the price of the entire book. If you want to read something else by the same author try The Invincible (Seabury/Continuum, $6.95). This is an entirely different type of story, yet has all of the readability factors of The Cyberiad. This story is more along the lines of the standard space classic. Each one of us is capable of being slightly, and positively or productively, schizophrenic. Our daydream characterizations of our self-images are enhanced and we find a safety valve for the multiple, and often miniscule, frustrations of daily life. In The Triune Man by Richard A. Lupoff (G.P. Putnam’s Sons, $6.95), schizophrenia reaches new heights of fascinating absurdity.

And, of course, the police can’t find the body but there is another one lying there a person you never met and don’t know. If you are getting confused by my description of this work K don’t worry this is only the beginning. The three characters have to get it together in time to save the universe.

In view of the action, the last few paragraphs make very little sense but do ameliorate the fact that somewhere someone dould be owrking on such a device even as you read this. “Social” science fiction has a long and honorable background. You can find superb examples (More’s Utopia, Orwell’s 1984) but it is unfortunate that so many bad or mediocre works outnumber the better ones. You really have to hunt at times to find a good piece of writing in this particular genre. Science fiction, of course, social questions by its very nature and, at times, finds answers to those questions. Zone Null by Herbert Franke (Seabury/Continuum, attempts to answer questions that -have not been clearly asked by the author. The main character can only question his society and its goals. He has seen another society, on Earth, that has been insulated from the “Free World” and has finally, been conquered by the “forces of good” (sic).

In other instances, they pontificate appear to have all situations well in hand, when in reality they are as puzzled and worried as the populace whose fears they are trying to allay. As much as certain scholars wish for the opposite, speculation will not go away. A perfect example of this is the apparent constant manifestation of UFOs, flying saucers, which The Invisible College by Jacques Vallee (Duttdn & Co., $8.95) attempts to deal with. Mr. Vallee equates the manifestation of flying saucers and other related incidents with psychic phenomena. His premise is that in times of extreme mental stress or change we produce our own materially sound occurrences which can be tested by other observers. (The “miracle” at Fatima is a perfect example.)

Earl Hershberger is a graduate student in Social Foundations and an instructor in Tolstoy College. �Play within play Trouble in Mind racial drama unfolded on stage rehearsals of Chaos. He is a neurotic who refuses to eat lunch with the rest of the cast because he feels that people stare at by Amirs Lapidot Spectrum Arts Staff As it is in life, where whites try to direct blacks, so it is in Alice Childress’ meta-drama Trouble in Mind where whites literally direct the predominantly black cast of the play-within-the-play, Chaos in Belleville. The real drama then is one of racial tensions between the characters of the tw'o plays. The complexity of the actors and actresses of Trouble is contrasted with the naive, simplistic stereotyping of the same characters in the play within it, Chaps. As the director within -the play, A1 Manners (Chuck Fadel), explains it: You can’t get a black play with a true message on Broa way because 1) white people won’t believe it; 2) they don’t want to believe it; and 3) they’re mot ready to believe it so you have to take it slow. But he is a “some-of-my-friends-are-black” type, anyway. In the opening scene, for instance, Wiletta Mayer (Lorna A. Hill, who also directed the play) tries to instruct John Nevins (Ken Norman) on how to behave when A1 Manners comes: Just keep smiling and laughing, she said, because white folks hate to see unhappy coloreds. - him; he can just imagine what they’re thinking! When A1 finally convinces Bill to go out with the cast, Bill only puts his foot in his mouth by telling racial jokes. Judy Sears (Susan Grajek) plays a naive young lady who sees the world as filled with roses, cotton candy, and Sunday School marches; she persistently asks the cast to come to her parents’ house in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She plays a similar role in Chaos', she is a rich planter’s daughter at a time when blacks are about to receive the vote. She keeps begging her father to let the darkies hold a barn stomp so they can have their fun. The two most down-to-earth characters are Millie Davis (Josephine Ewing) and Sheldon Forrester (Frankie J. Robinson); they have given up trying to attain stardom and are content with any part at all, just as long as they can get their money and live decently. John and Judy are both new in the field; they want to rise to the top, so they do what they are told without too much fu$s. Wiletta, however, is completely different Not all an act but her protests only get her out the door and on to the sidewalk. Although most of the director-actor friction is between A1 and Willeta concerning the “turn yourself in“ line, there are many other factors involved principally, Wiletta’s determination to become a star and to relate the truth while doing so. She refuses to be treated or cast as a “dumb nigger;” she insists on being treated as a person. This is not to say that the other characters feel no resentment toward Al. ft is mostly sensed in Millie, Sheldon, Eddie Fenton, Al’s “gofer, ’-(Tom Dooney), and Henry (Evan Perry), the 78-year-old janitor. Al’s character is so imposing and d thr by thr of thr day h; — Most importantly, however, it got the theme of “reality and truth versus imagination and fantasy’’ across; Chaos portrays life simplistically by showing the blacks as down-home people who really don’t know any better. The truth lies in the cast and crew; all are trying to be realistic, but some have a very warped perception of the world. Only the ending is lacking; I’m afraid that the reading of the 23rd Psalm tears none of my heartstrings. And after its completion, the audience didn’t know whether to clap or wait for something else. Thus the stereotyped roles from the racial-political aspect of life were condensed and given life in Trouble in 'ifferent people’s (ect their ideas and ;reate lion an absurd against the and unnecessary mean that life is some of the optics and cynics the unnecessary las seen so many icse unnecessary 'bsurd? jly abstract, this ti-war play.

As usual, he has followed the musical trend of the times by recording his new album in Jamaica, and the album flows well because of its reggae undertones. But it also overflows with monotony. Joe Cocker’s usually flawless choice of material suffers a reversal on this album. He sings two new Dylan songs (not yet recorded by Bob “Catfish” and “The Man in Me”) neither of which appear to be worth the effort. That is not Cocker’s problem, though. “The Man in Me” is the album’s only totally reggae cut, and it works well musically, but Cocker’s phlegm-infested voice annihilates the words beyond comprehension; the song loses out in the end. He does three of Matthew Moore’s songs, all of which are neither showy or catchy, but his voice and style pull them off nicely. Most of the album is pleasant — enough to listen to, Cocker having not lost his ability to communicate emotion in song. R is just that there are no songs that stand out. tt is an album filled with pleasing mediocrity, but lacking a bit of musical polish and push. This is enlivened a bit by Leon RusSefl’s “A Song For You,” the type of tune Cocker enjoys and is best at interpreting. The result, however, is a slowed-down, drawn out, strained attempt to achieve the intensity that Leon introduced in his version. As much as it appears that Cocker enjoyed recording this album, it would seem he has lot a little of his confidence. Joe Cocker does succeed in showing how reggae can be worked into any type of song well and makes good use of his backing vocalists. He gives the band lots of room to maneuver but they seem content in just backing the man with the voice. The man with the voice seems to be satisfied with his contribution to the continuance of music in whatever form it takes. Joel Dinerstein Leslie Gore Love Me By Name Talented and knowledgeable people have been involved in the making of Leslie Gore’s new, “comeback” album love Me By Name. Love Me By Name is largely a MOR effort, produced by Quincy Jones and featuring the Herbie Hancock Orchestra as well as the saxophone af Tom Scott. But despite this help, it is apparent that Jones was never really able to locate the right niche in which,to showcase Gore’s fine ringing abilities. Although Love Me By Name contains one outstanding tune, a lisco-oriented number entitled, “Sometimes” as well as some other lecent cuts, the materia) is generally flat. Core is a talented, though obviously limited singer and these limitations arc particularly evident an the songs that make even the slightest allusions to being ballads. Also much of the material has a “been down but not out” attitude to it :hat soon becomes annoying. The up-tempo numbers are best, the voice is still there, and a following effort could really produce surprises. Anyway, “It’s My Party” was a great song.

Appearing a little tense at first. Manes started the program with the Sonata in C Minor (Opus 10, No. 1), an early piece that closely fits the classical three-movement sonata form (fast-slow-fast). The first movement (allegro molto e con brio) uses strongly contrasting themes and dynamics to achieve a lively, dramatic effect. Manes overemphasized the dynamics a 0 ■munimmuim bit, resulting in a somewhat unbalanced sound. However, the second (adagio molto) movement, which develops ~as a set of variations on the opening theme and sometimes stops to achieve its dramatic effect, was very cleanly performed. The companion to Beethoven’s famous “Moonlight” Sonata, the Sonata (quasi una Fantasia) in C Flat Major (Opus 27, No. 1), is written in four continuous movements. In this piece. Manes achieved a sensitive tonal and dynamic balance. The second movement, with its sudden outbursts and changes of mood, was handled especially well.

Successful year Beethoven’s last and perhaps greatest sonata is the Sonata in C Minor, Opus 111. The turbulent first movement can only be described as a furious, chaotic barrage of sound. (It is pure Beethoven in its intensity and granduer!). The extraordinary coda of this movement gradually slows down the music to allow the listener to make the transition into the tranquil second movement. The second movement reaches its climax with the two hands at the extreme ends of the keyboard. The. final quiet statement of the theme lends an ethereal quality to this finely-spun musical maze. With his sensitive handling of this intricate piece. Manes proved himself more than just a skilled technician. This performance brought to a close College B’s very successful 1975-76 concert program. Several of the Beethoven sonata programs filled the Cornell Theater despite being held on Sunday mornings, with most of the audience made up of non-students. College B master Carlo Pinto has yet .to announce a firm schedule of events for next year. Howe er, it is known that pianist Yvar Mikhashoff will continue his series of Sunday night recitals and a series of Thursday night student recitals will be started in the fall. In addition.

Academic problems are dealt with by Ms- Bird in an attempt to bring understanding to the problem of the liberal arts or “religion” as she calls it school. This is an age of extreme specialization and liberal arts training is broadbasefl. Of course, once you have an arts degree, you could go on to graduate work of a narrower range.

For catalog: ROSARY HILL COLLEGE / Director of Admission* / 4380 Main St, ■/ Amherst, N.Y. 14226 / 716-839-3600 man.” That very same afternoon, Professor Thomas Porter, once a recognized supporter of Asante, was informed by the chairman that he was being removed as acting director of the Communications Research Center, and was in effect being kicked out of his office. At a meeting two weeks ago over a review of his year's work, Porter was informed by Asante that his teaching was bad, his research irrelevant, and th$t not enough people were involved in the Communication Research Center, according to an informed source. Tire source said Asante told Porter he couldn’t support him if he had to reappoint him now, and speculated that this was directly related to Porter’s recent lack of support for Asante’s policies. Porter, who was once one of the few faculty members Asante consulted, changed his position because he felt Asante had lied to him, another faculty member claimed. Porter had reportedly asked Asante why he was singling out Professors Charles Petrie and Ernest Tompson for a larger course load, lower level courses and no summer work. In a private conversation. Asante reportedly told Porter that he wanted to isloate Petrie and Thompson for being uncooperative. However, Asante said at a faculty meeting the reason he singled them out was that he wanted to get tenured professors leaching undergraduate classes. Amending by-laws The source claimed that the other reason for Asante's reversal of support for Porter was due to his disapproval of what some faculty members have called Asante's “Feuhrer amendment.” The Feuhrer Amendement" would have changed the Department's by-laws so that the chairman could reserve the right to appoint the chairperson of the various departmental committees, as opposed to them being selected by democractic election, which is now the policy. One faculty member claimed that Asante has the power, but wants to legitimatize it with this amendment. At the meeting in which Asante had introduced the “Feuhrer amendment," Professor Gerald Frye, considered by observers to be neutral in Department politics, stated that “he would resign before he would tolerate a non-democratic Department.!’ Two weeks later, when Frye was informed that Asante had not supported him on the vote on his reappointment, Frye expressed shock, claiming that before the “Feuhrer amendment” Asante told him “he would give his full support even if the entire faculty voted against me.” Frye said he told Asante he felt he had been deceived. Frye said Asante replied, “Yes, the Department is full of deception.” One of the explanations for Asante’s lack of support, according to "Frye, was that his research was weak and was not useful to the Department. Frye claimed that this was “strange indeed,” considering that he [Frye] is working on a textbook for undergraduates with Asante and that Asante has accepted two of Frye’s articles for publication in a journal Asante himself is editing. p I II I I Each fiutotune-up”.

Lau claims that Asante lied to him in saying last March that the faculty vote on Lau’s tenure had been 50—50, and that he could not count on it being approved. Lau said he asked Asante whether that was a final decision. He said Asante replied no During the Sttmmer' updated resume from Lau, assui toe ?Sf?|P "; ■7- - 1 + -.•> ■£,. , ■*>. ; .s .. v •• -'X'U _.t 4 -V. —continued from page 3-*- who was brought here by Asante as his “right hand i. ‘ ■ ' interim-[one 1 25 regular june 28-aug 6 ■ • • t- indicating that he would not be reappointed. At that time, Lau was told that the initial vote on his reappointment had really been 7—5, and that Asante had recommended not to reappoint. Some members of the Department claim that during the threats of retrenchment, Asante told Walter Gantz, another faculty member, that he was going to be cut if a Department line had to be lost, and that this was related to Gantz’s lack of support for Asante. The Department members also claimed that Asante selected Gantz despite the fact that he was hired specifically as a mass communications specialist, and that his academic credentials are better than another professor hired at the same time. Both job descriptions call for mass communication specialists, but the other faculty member’s degree is in rhetoric, and he is considered a supporter of Asante, they said. Lack of consultation Other members of the Department cited Asante for his “lack of formal consultation” in Departmental matters, particularly over the hiring of professors and the appointment of graduate students. Professor Thompson has filed a formal grievance against Asante for a violation of the by-laws by hiring Rita Alvis without a formal vote. Other faculty members claimed that Alvis was offered the job before her on-campus interview. Most significantly they claim, for two years, “PhD” has appeared beside Alvis’ name in both the Graduate Catalogue and the Graduate Handbook, as well as at an International Symposium on Communication. Alvis only received word that her thesis was accepted last January. This action was a major breach of ethics especially since they both continued the fascade, one professor said. They also claimed that Professors Gantz and Blake were appointed without formal consultation. Similarly, some faculty claim that Asante has and overruled repeatedly by-passed recommendations of the Admissions and Standards Committee by accepting graduate students that do not meet the committee’s objective criteria, thus lowering the quality of the program. One member of the committee claimed that in Fall 1975, one quarter of the students who were accepted to the graduate department were rejected or never seen by the committee. Another professor said that of the 16 Assistantships awarded at that time, Asante renewed and appointed two students who didn’t meet the criteria set up by the Personnel and Appointments committee for Assistantships. 1 No rebutai Responding to complaints over these actions, Asante reportedly told the committees that if he were going to reverse a decision, he would give reasons and offer an opportunity for rebutai, one faculty member claimed. However, four students were admitted in Spring 1974 that the Admissions Committee either opposed or never saw, the professor countered. This is not quality control, another claimed. You can’t give lip service to offering a program of excellence and allow these types of situations to happen, he said. Faculty memebrs don’t object to Asante’s desire to bring in minorities and foreign students who might not perform well on standardized tests, a professor explained, but this should be the exception and not the rule and should be done with faculty > input.

He said he felt SA had “handled both the groups the same way,” meaning that any proposals made during negotiations with Services groups were also subject to approval by the Finance Committee. NYPIRG member David Lennett said an initial coalition of the minority and services groups broke down when the minorities refused to be realistic in their negotiations. Poor planning “A lot of people were willing to take voluntary cuts. They were willing to take voluntary increases,” he said. “They weren’t willing to negotiate on reasonable terms.” Lennett said he didn’t think the Finance Committee had any malice toward the organizations that were cut in the proposed budgets, but that they made the mistake of passing the two “biggies” (Athletics and Sub Board) before planning the rest of the budget. “Before PIRG even walked in that door it was the prevelant feeling of the Committee members that we would have to be cut,” he said. Lennett believes they “didn’t think about where the money was going to come from” when Athletics and Sub Board were given substantial increases. “I just hope the Executive Committee doesn’t start screwing V around with the budgets after all this,” he said. the that the “legitimate” up by saying summed situation Spiegel political system of open meetings and “caucusing” are the ones that SA ideally uses for its budgeting process, but in the event that the legitimate system “breaks down,” the Executive Committee is given the power to act “unilaterally.” “It was either the system’s fault or our fault” that the process broke down,” he said. “We really tried and it almost worked.” Natuml splendor..: farming highly productive. Also important was the fact that the Valley contains the finest hardwood stands east of the Mississippi River. While farming continues today, the mills are all but a thing of the past.

Overnight camping, while once popular, is now illegal as a result of these problems. Those people who wish to spend a day in the Valley, however, are welcome.

The final point totals were: University of Buffalo 81, Niagara 65, Buffalo State 60Vi, St. Bonaventure 39 and Canisius 35. Bulls track coach A1 Heinen had high hopes for victory, but admitted, “I didn’t think we’d win that big.” Buffalo’s success was due in large part to the exploits of Eldred Stephens who took first place in four different events. First, he captured the long jump, and a few minutes later he won the hundred-yard dash. Then he returned to the field events to take the triple jumjp competition. He ended his prolific performance in good fashion with a victory in the 220-yard dash, one stride ahead of teammate Paul Kubicki. This strong, one-two finish in the 220 was a key factor in winning tlfe meet. Due to an injury earlier in the year, Stephens hadn’t entered as many events during previous meets. But Saturday, the junior from Niagara Falls showed no signs of any injury with his four wins. He also placed second with the 400-yard relay team for his fifth event of the Bold Forbes Derby winner The undermanned Bulls aren’t overpowering in any one area, but disperse their talent well through many events. Their consistent performances' in sprints, distances and field events gave them a wide margin of Victory. Last year, Walt Halady of Buffalo set the meet record for the shot gwput. He wasn’t able to top that feat this year, but his 46 feet, 4 inches was good enough for another font place finish. He was also second in - 'the hammer throw. Larry Williams helped the Bulls’-cause with a win in the 120 high hurdtoa, but more unexpected was the strong running of Mike Fisher and John Ryeeson. These two finished a suprising second and third in the 3-mile run. -Alnupugh knany contributed to the victory, Stephens stole the show, and almost single-handedly carried the Bulls with his four individual victories. Without Stephens, it would have been anyone’s meet, hd his versatility in the field and sprints enabled Buffalo to win >. , > those events. The meet was viewed by a sparse crowd gt Sweet Home High School. The track has a rubcor surface, which is different from the cinder track at Rotary Field, but the different track had little effect on the University of Buffalo track team, which finished its home schedule as an intercollegiate sport on an impressive note. • • VAT MED.

When Baeza moved, so did Cordero, and with the length of a horse to spare, Bold Forbes stole the Kentucky Derby. Much had been said during the week about differences between Baeza and Honest Pleasure’s trainer, Leroy Jolley. Honest Pleasure likes to run, but Jolley had wanted Baeza to teach him to hang behind the lead if necessary. In the Bluegrass Stakes a week earlier, Baeza tried to hold Honest Pleasure back, but the horse fought so hard that Baeza couldn’t stop him, and the extra strain nearly cost him the race. -V*: Sold Forbes wi—hoMiy But in the end, the day belonged to Bold Forbes and his trainer.

Barrera also had winning horses in Saturday’s Illinois Derby and in the Carter Handicap at Aqueduck, making May 1, 1976 perhaps the most successful day in his life. v , Crowd small but super The success of any Kentucky Derby depends on the mood of the crowd. This year’s crowd was instrumental in making the *76 Derby most memorable. They were a friendly, content bunch, somewhat calmer than in past years, but completely enthralled by the charm of the Derby. They drank, they slept, they ate, they necked, and they enjoyed every minute they spent dwarfed by the twin spires. The total crowd of 115,387 was not the largest in history, but what they lacked in size, they made up for in enthusiasm. The smoke bomb which was hurled onto the track fortunately had no effect on the race thanks to top notch security. Louisville law enforcement agencies do not spare the manpower on Derby Day, but all the officers are efficient and enjoy themselves almost as much as the crowd. The crowd bet almost $8.5 million for the 10-race card, and nearly $4.5 million on the Derby itself, both new records, but ultimately it was the horse, his Jockey, his owner and his trainer that won more than any bettor at Churchill Downs.

For every sparse week, though, there are two heavy weeks where two, three or even four athletes will turn in stellar performances. Eldred Stephens’ four victories in Saturday’s UB Invitational track meet was the top performance of last week, and Stephens is the year’s final Athlete of the Week.

Then, on Sunday, they beat the Kenmore Lacrosse Club 12-7. The win gave the Bulls a .5711 record with 4 wins and 3 losses. Buffalo had beaten Niagara earlier in the season so the game was not expected to be close. The Bulls overwhelmed the Purple Eagle’s weak defense, with high scorer Frank Massero getting 5 goals. Club president Herb Roisman tallied for a hr.t trick, his first points of the season. Dave Caplan, Steve Hackly and Jack Simon all scored 2 goals giving Buffalo an easy win. The Bulls took 26 shots on goal to the Eagles’ 28 shots, however many of Niagara’s shots were wild. Buffalo goalie George Talboys put in an excellent effort stopping what looked like four sure goals, and holding off 22 shots-on-goal overall. Niagara never really could get going. Their passes were inaccurate and their offense seemed to fizzle out around the crease. Hie Eagles did have a hat trick, with their best scoring effort in the second period. Extra-curricular activity The futility of their effort climaxed in a fight during the third period. When Bull Marty Wilcox was hit in the neck with a stick by Niagara’s Art Roberts, the gloves and sticks were dropped and a fight ensued. Player-coach Perry Hanson and defenseman Mark Smitolski came off of the bench to join the melee while another Eagle entered the fight. Soon after the referees regained control. When the game continued, two players were ejected, (Wilcox and Roberts) and 3 sticksters were in the penalty box. Hanson and Smitolski received 3 mirtutes for coming off the bench and Niagara received 3 minutes for third man in on a fight. For Niagara this game was costly. Three Eagles were injured, and their high scorer for the game left with his knee injured badly when he was blind-sided by one of the Bulls. Buffalo was checking very hard. T hey’re (Niagara) playing pretty dirty, low checking and hitting with their sticks,” Roisman said. But in the end the Eagles were outplayed and seemed to lack the skills to beat the Bulls. Buffalo was the stronger 9f the two clubs and showed it. Sunday the Lacrosse club played the Kenmore Lacrosse Club which is a team of ex-high school and college lacrosse players who play for fun. Among their ranks are a brother pair whose age is 58 and 60. Last year they ruined the Bulls perfect record. “We’re afraid to hit them [the 60-year old playqgkj hard,’’ said defenseman Gary Passer. “ Number Ones clinch softball by Ira A.

The Number Ones, aptly named, put on a slugging and fielding exhibition before a loyal crowd of about 15 who couldn’t be kept away by the rain. Ones a product of evolution Co-captains Ernie McKeever and Doug Zeif pointed out the selective nature of the team. “We’re not just a bunch of guys who hang around together. We’re a hand-picked group. There are no missing links,” Zief said. The left fielder was understandably smug in continuing, “No one can touch us. We should have gotten a bye right into the finals.” In winning this championship, three players from the Ones, Makinajian, Ernie Schindler, catcher, and McKeever, -became the only athletes in the school to be members of two of the three Intramural Championship teams, as each played for the football Clits. Losing Captain Rick Sahlman, one of the few good fielders for the Trek at third base, was disappointed with his team’s performance but had no excuses. “We’ve been averaging over 10 runs a game,” he moaned, “but we just didn’t hit today. They had an excellent defensive team.” • Both teams had S-0 seasons but their equal records were not indicative of their relative talents. Star Trek had a poor defensive team which was weakened farther by the injury to their regular centerfielder. In lob-pitch softball, everybody hits the ball hard, and the Trekkies’ inability to judge fly balls and throw out runners on groundballs was their downfall. Ones tight gloved The Ones, on the other hand, sported a stellar defensive unit that only committed three errors throughout the game. Trek batters were hitting the ball just as hard as the Ones, the difference being the Ones’ ability to make the catches. It is hard to pick out one star for the Ones, although each member of the team made a case for himself, citing his gaudy batting statistics after the liF’Cbl REFRIGERATOR RETURNS Wednesday, May 5th Main Street Campus: Goodyear Hall and Schoellkopf Hall 7 pm 8:30 pm Clement Hall and McDonald Halt 8:30 pm 10 pm -HITCH HIKING- — - — HIS SUMMER.

The meeting on the proposed SA budget for next year was called because the Wednesday and Thursday meetings were also halted by a disorderly and vocal crowd. Adjournment of the meeting means the budget is now solely in the hands of the SA Executive Committee. No further public debate is scheduled. The controversy arose over the proposed cuts in the budgets of the Black Student Union (BSU) and PODER. The original proposal called for S22.000 to be allocated to BSU (Jown from 29,900 last year), and $13,000 to PODER (versus $14,000 last year). Both groups indicated that these figures were unacceptable. The. Executive recommended Committee Thursdays that an additional $2,000 be given to both BSy and PODER from money previously earmarked for the Office of Minority Affairs. Members of this both groups rejected proposal, too. Physical threats Immediately after Speigel called the meeting to order, three men overturned the speakers’ table, grabbing the microphone. The men then announced that there would be no meeting. In an attempt to restore order, Speigel called for adjournment. Despite great tension and confusion, the the motion was passed by Senators still present. A person who had apparently been taking movie pictures of the campus all day long set up his camera in Haas Lounge. He was surrounded and threatened with bodily harm should any pictures be taken. At Thursday’s meeting, a photographer for The Spectrum was also threatened verbally. As the crowd nervously filed - out of the room, a group of black students began singing “We Shall Overcome” with one line changed “no blacks and whites to together.” The SA Executive Committee also recommended cutting $1500 from the proposed S4.450 increase in the stipends of all elected officers. Recommended stipend increases for appointed officers are not affected by the proposed cut. The $1500 would go to Academic Affairs to publish the Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE). If the cut is approved, proposed increases of $2,950 over last year's allocation for stipends will remain. The original $4,450 increase called for the President and Treasurer to receive an increase from $1,750 to $2,220; a jump from $700 to $1500 for the Executive Vice President; a $200 increase for the Vice President for Sub Board. Other lesser increases were also proposed. the Already passed by Executive Committee was a cut in salaries from $51,000 to $41,633. This still represents an increase of $7,285 over last year’s budget. Salaries are paid to secretaries and professional office workers. SA Travel was cut $300. The Committee agreed to pay Student Association of State University (SASU) dues of $9,735. The Speakers Bureau was given $3,000 specifically geared towards The New York Public Interest Research Group. (NYPIRG) was to receive $22,000. Nuclear reactor in need of costly refueling job by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor The reactor at the Nuclear Research Facility here is due for a uranium core refueling by the summer of 1977. Specific arrangements for the fuel replacement procedure are being 'worked out at this time. Charles Thomas, director of the nuclear facility estimated that the entire operation, including extraction of depleted fuel bundles and transportation of incoming and outgoing materials will cost $330,000, althou’gh one administration spokesman indicated that the total costs will run as high as $680,000. The uranium core must be enriched at approximately ten year intervals, said Martin Haas, assistant director of the facility. The proposed refueling will keep the reactor running until 1990 even though it entails only a partial replacement of consumed fuel rods. The nuclear facility has been in operation (discounting continuous rountine maintenance shutdowns and a couple of minor water leaks causing brief service cutailments) since late 1964, providing a wide gamut of community and general services. These include large scale production of medicinal radio isotopes for diagnostic traces and cancer therapy, research in a variety of fields ranging from archeology, and nuclear physics to engineering instruction. Radioactive wastes After the depleted uranium is removed from the reactor core it is placed in a water filled lead casket and transported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC) fuel reprocessing plant in Savannah, Georgia. Because the fuel can be used again after the reprocessing procedure which salvages the remaining parcel of “burnable uranium, a radioactive waste disposal problem is avoided. However, a waste disposal problem does crop up with the reactor core parts contiguous to the semi-exhausted fuel. These materials remain hot (radioactively speaking) long after their dismantlement and have to be buried underground, indicated Marvin Resnikoff, a theoretical physicist working with the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). It used to be that the now defunct would Commission Energy Atomic generously pick up the entire tab for the uranium replacement process. This is not the case any longer. The University is now waiting to hear from the newly formed Energy Resource Development Association (ERDA) which will determine the amount of forthcoming federal subsidization, if any, for the refueling. Cost discrepancy If ERDA funds cover only part of the purported $330,000 cost, the University administration must then decide if any additional appropriations over and above the original $200,000 annual allotment for reactor operations will be provided to the Nuclear Facility. In lieu of the tight fiscal bind which the State University now finds itself in, many groups would likely_express strident opposition to any further depletions of the emaciated University treasury while faculty lines are being cut in the wake of Steep academic retrenchments. It is unclear as to exactly where the money would come from if GRDA shouldered only a small portion or none of the costs. The reactor facility generated around $125,000 in its own revenue through the sale of radio-isotopes to medical concerns. Assuming that $330,000 is the actual cost incurred and that the $125,000 could be put towards the fuel replacement bill, a $205,000 cost discrepancy would have to be made up if ERDA earmarked no monies whatsoever. The question is where will this money refueling come from? If the $680,000 figure is the correct replacement sum then the anomlay becomes even more insoluble. It is not an absolute certainty that the reactor will in fact be refueled. The decision is contingent upon what ERDA does. It is anticipated that after May 2S uranium fuel prices will undergo a substantial hike. If ERDA delays its subsidy decision until after May 25, the University will face the prospect of shelling out even more money than originally anticipated, making things still bleaker. �Pregnancy Clinic fighting Sub Board on rule change by Alan Most Spectrum Staff Writer Members of the Pregnancy Counseling (Human Sexuality) Center are fighting a decision by Sub Board to change the process by which new Center directors are Traditionally, Sub Board has director of the organization in question, an individual of the division director’s choice, and two non-voting staff or faculty personnel “who would clearly have of the programming area or knowledge services.” The spokesperson went on to say that responsibility for the management of any under Sub Board lies organization ultimately with the Board. The spokesperson felt there was perhaps a communication gap between Pregnancy Counseling and A1 Campagna, Sub Board’s Health Care Division director. Campagna was out of town and could not be reached for comment. When Sub Board decided to allow all qualified candidates from the University to apply for director, several staff persons officials were believed Sub Board attempting to choose a director with whom they could deal with easily. According to Amy Francis Millard, current Center co-director, there is little contact between herself and Campagna or Sub Board itself.

Both question the effectiveness of appointing an untrained and inexperienced dirtetorwho must train new counselors. They said group cohesion would be seriously damaged by the removal of the present democratic process within the organization. However, a Sub-Board spokesperson claimed that in a "sensitive area such as human sexuality, the credentials of the Center’s directors become a very important issue.

If a decision to institute the fee is reached over the summer, it would begin to be levied this fall. According to an informed spokesperson, revenues from the fee would go to Albany and would not necessarily benefit the Placement Office or other offices on this campus. The fee was initially suggested by administrative officials here, who were following the lead of several other SUNY units which now charge for similar services. Placement Director Eugene Martel confirmed that a fee was under consideration, but stressed that no decision has yet been made. Rising costs for paper and postage were cited by Martel as one reason for the charge. buffalo State, Albany, and Stony Brook have instituted fees for sending out placement files, Martel said. He added that his office would query these schools " experience with charging the fee. Martel expressed doubts, ' however, that the Placement Office would actually gain anything by the fee. He said he and his staff are currently examining all factors involved in the proposal to see if it is worth the “bother and cost” it entails. The spokesperson took somewhat stronger view of the proposal, however. He said the University’s expenses will be raised because more people will have to be hired to administer the charge. He added that a maximum of will be raised by the a sum he felt did proposed fee justify putting not students through the expense involved in sending out several files, Dr the inconvenience of waiting on a Student Accounts line to pay the fee. The official went on to say that the only possible motive for the proposed fee is to make Placement “look like a good guy with Albany,” since he felt the fee could not possibly raise enough money to pay for the costs of sending out the placement files. $7,000 — by Amy Dunk in Editor-in-Chief 19, 1976, the House of On February Representatives voted to order its ethics committee to investigate the leak of the Select Committee on Intelligence’s secret report to CBS correspondent Daniel Schorr and to determine whether to take action against the Washington journalist for his role in its publication. The exclusive “Report on the CIA that President Ford Doesn’t Want You to Read” appeared in the February 16 issue of The Village Voice. CBS news on February 23 formally relieved Daniel Schorr of all duties as Washington of the resolution correspondent pending Congressional investigation of his leak of the “Pike Report” to the Voice. Although CBS News President Richard Salant said the network would back Schorr against attempts to require him to reveal his source, he felt the inquiry placed Schorr in an “adversary position.” Schorr remains on the CBS payroll and maintains an office in Washington. But he has been off the air since February 18. Life as martyr With all that free time, Schorr has had many hours to think about what he did. “Suspension like hanging is very good for concentrating your mind,” he told an audience of 500 Friday night in the Fillmore Room. Rather than dewll on “his new life as martyr,” he prefers to fit it into a larger picture. He said it was strange being translated from behind the camera to before it, from interviewer to interviewee. In an hour and a half long narrative, Schorr traced his career through what he calls the “era of disclosure," beginning with Watergate and culminating in Congressional investigations into domestic and foreign intelligence activities. He said he came to Washington, after being a foreign correspondent for many years, somewhat alienated from the country, and he wanted to cover subjects he felt weren't being covered very well pollution, housing, etc. After the national conventions in 1972, his bureau chief suggested he start paying more attention to the Watergate break-in. With all the intuition of a good reporter, Schorr recalled he had said, “I don't think it’s really much of a story." But he covered Watergate for two years and in August, 1974. with the resignation of Richard Nixon, most everyone thought the story was finished. — Add these words tb your basic vocabulary now, whether or not you’re planning a trip to Mexico soon.

Two plus two After reviewing' the coverage of Watergate, Schorr explained, he found many questions that remained unanswered, particularly with respect to the CIA’s connection to the scandal. Then, in September, 1974, Seymour Hirsch of theAtew York Times wrote a story about covert operations of the CIA in Chile. It occurred to Schorr that he couldn’t remember anything important ever leaking from the CIA. So he wanted to do one story on the CIA and Chile, discovering soon after mat it was really a continuation of an old assignment, a veritable “son of Watergate.” “I was confronted with the same secret techniques -and abuses of investigative flowers,” espionage of Americans on Americans and an organized corps developing covert operations, he said. But Schorr found that the Chile story didn’t grab hold of many, that it was too far away from the — - JOSE CUERVO*TEQUILA. 80 PROOF IMPORTED AND BOTTLED BY © 1975, HEUBLE1N. INC., HARTFORD, CONN. UJS. In December, 1974, however, Saymour Hirsch brought home all the dirty tricks developed for abroad in a story on Operation Chaos. Schorr said even President Ford became alarmed and within no time, established a blue-ribbon commission, headed by Vice President Nelson Rockefeller, to investigate CIA espionage operations in the United States. He noted that the Rockefeller Commission only looked into what Hirsch had reported anyway. CIA O.K. The executive branch investigation was followed by Senate and House proceedings. Schorr stated that the Senate issued two reports, one on foreign and one on domestic activities, but because it didn’t want trouble, the report was first approved by the CIA. “The extent to which intelligence agencies have gone beyond what should be going on is quite unbelievable,” Schorr remarked. “It is a black mark on the way government operates that it could have gone on undetected.” After Watergate, though, it seemed as if Americans would not rest until they knew all. Schorr related that in the process, the press uncovered all kinds of secrets. He mentioned the National Security Agency (NSA), an organization with a secret budget believed to be used primarily for decoding purposes. It was discovered, however, that NSA spent most of its budget developing the most astonishing means for to NSA’s electronic eavesdropping. Thanks technology, U.S. leaders can listen to Kremlin leaders in Moscow listening to U.S. leaders in Washington, Schorr pointed out. ‘Secrecy backlash’ Yet things started happening to turn the tables on the trend towards disclosure. The “secrecy backlash” began with the attempts on Ford’s life and was strengthened by the murder of CIA embassy chief Richard Welsh in Athens, which Schorr feels was orchestrated to make CIA disclosures appear responsible for his death. On January 23, the House Intelligence Committee voted 9—4 to make public its report on the CIA. Shortly after, Schorr obtained a copy and for a week, reported highlights of it on the air. The House decided on January 29 that the report would be withheld, heeding the wishes of the White House to prevent anv further leaks. Schorr, left with a copy of a report the House didn’t want published, decided it was a document, paid for by taxpayers’ money, that the people should see. “So I published it,” he said. Where it stands The House voted to launch a $350,000 investigation into the leak, although as columnist Mary McGrory pointed out, it only cost-$450,000 to write the report. The former figure was subsequently reduced to $150,000. Schorr said he has not yet been called to testify, but stressed that he will under no circumstances reveal his source if he is summoned. He firmly believes that it would have been a “fault of contempt not to publish what the House of Representatives wanted us not to publish.” If the House ultimately cites Schorr for contempt, or the Justice Department prosecutes him for violation of the federal espionage law, it will raise freedom of the press and other First Amendment rights similar to those raised in the case of Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers. Schorr is confident that what he did is right and will be upheld. “The press saved this country” in many ways, he said. “It will do it again.” ATTENTION; All Funded Organ izations.

The Loving Cup Quinlan family decided they wanted to allow Karen to die, and that they would do so by attending authorizing her physicians to turn off the respirator. To obtain authority to do this, Karen’s father went to the local court to be appointed her* official guardian, for the expressed purpose of giving authorization for her treatment to be discontinued. Parody of dignity The attending physicians, the hospital, and the state of New Jersey opposed him. Although Quinlan lost the case, his appeal to the Slate Supreme Court of New Jersey was successful. Armstrong himself feels strongly about Karen’s case, and called her condition “a parody of essential human dignity,” and her continuation on the respirator a “futile use of extraordinary medical procedures." He and the Quinlans concentrated on four points in the case, he said. First, that the withdrawal of her treatment would be to her benefit, since it would allow her natural body processes to take their course. 'Second, the decision to let Karen die by her family was based in religious beliefs and followed consultation with religious authorities, making it illegal for the state not to allow them to carry out their decision. Third, that the 8th amendment guarantee of privacy would be violated if the Quinlan’s were interferred with in such a personal, private, family matter; and finally, that the denial of Quinlan as his daughter's legal guardian would constitute cruel and unusual punishment. Five arguments were raised against tite Quinlans, he said. First, that the court lacks jurisdiction to make a decision on a medical matter of life and death. Second, that it can never be in anyone’s self-interest to let them die. Third, that there is no constitutionally protected “right to die,” although Euthanasia proponants insist that there is a moral one. Fourth, to allow Quinlan to end his daughter’s life would be to interfere with “prevailing medical standards;” and lastly, that the court would in effect be giving Quinlan permission to commit a homicide. , Unparalleled courage Removing Karen’s respirator would not constitute homicide, the court decided, because her death would be “the result of a previously existing natural cause,” and not the result of injury by another person. Armstrong called the court’s decision an act of “wisdom, courage and clarity unparalleled in current judicial history.” Kohl began by suggesting three moral defenses for possible Quinlan Karen r=emoVing respirator and allowing her to die. First would be to deny that to do so would be killing. Second would be to insist that a human in Karen's state is no longer a “person.” Or finally, it could be argued that it would be killing, but not wrong. The bulk of his presentation pertained to his first whether or not allowing point Karen to die would constitute killing. • — What is murder?

Curtin ruled on Friday todesegregate all Buffalo public schools, as a result of a year-and-a-half long class action suit pursued by two civil rights groups and five Buffalo parents. In his decision, Curtin declared what the Citizen’s Council on Human Relations (CCHR) and the Buffalo chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People had maintained for more than ten years that the Buffalo Board of Education, superintendent of schools, and Common Council, and the New York State Board of Regents and its commissioner of education/ the been Violating have Fourteenth Amendment rights of Buffalo minority group citizens by “intentionally causing and maintaining a segregated school - system.” _ i In his report, Curtin charged “a decade or more of intransigence and obstruction, of delay and procrastination” on the part of city and state officials who are against integration efforts, and upheld the plaintinffs’ claim that “intentionally these officials created and maintained in substantial part” the segregation in Buffalo schools. Justification Curtin’s verdict was distributed in the form of a 200-page brief, five copies of which were made available for examination to the news media. Citing the bases of his findings, he listed many of the actions that the organizations and their attorneys had presented to the -court. These included charges that the Board had used discriminatory student admissions' and transfer practices, had gerrymandered school districts, had hired and promoted staff on the basis of race, and had refused to adopt a workable integration plan, that the Buffalo Common Council had obstructed the few integrative steps the Board had taken, and that the Regents and state commissioner had failed to move - effectively to desegregate Curtin termed the Board’s “neighborhood schools” policy (which the defendants had labeled “racially neutral”) a “shiboleth” “disregarded and that was subverted when the Board saw fit.” He added that the state officials’ ‘‘lack of effective action” encouraged the city’s recalcitrance, and that the few efforts by the defendants at “too desegregation insignificant to alleviate the harm done.” Laying blame Curtin also found that the federal and city government housing agencies, the real estate industry, and the common council were at fault in much of Buffalo’s housing segregation. Because of this, the city defendants could not use the existence of segregated housing as an excuse for maintaining segregated schools, he said. Although he did not find the state officials guilty of segregative housing practices, he said that the state defendants were not excused by housing imbalance either, because, “in the final analysis, [the Regents and commissioner] are responsible for education in New York.” Curtin was less specific when it came to ordering remedies to racial segregation. He forbade the defendants to take “any further in violation . of the action plaintiffs’ rights under the Constitution.” (In a class-action suit, this would include the rights of all persons in the same category of “class” the court sees the plaintiffs to be in, and is therefore applicable to most minority persons in Buffalo.) Then, saying that the court lacks the educational expertise to prescribe -solutions, he determined that it was the defendants’ devise an to responsibility adequate desegregation plan. “The court’s role is to -review school of the adequacy and to efforts authorities’ substitute its own plan only if they default,” wrote Curtin. “It is therefore the responsibility of the defendants to come forward with attorney Richard Griffin reads the integration suit verdict to NAACP New York Plaintiff's Conference S 1.25 (a hardcover edition cheaper than paper!)

They were not parties to the suit. I found that there was no discriminatory intent [on the part of] suburban communities.” (It is probable that Curtin did not take into CCHR consideration recent statements that their research has turned up thousands of restrictive suburban housing covenants. The covenants were said to have been drawn up in the same years that much of the city racial housing patterns took shape, and to have weighed heavily in closing the suburbs off to black residents.) Persistently asked about busing, Curtin said that it is one of many possible solutions. “However,” he.added, “all other steps should be takeh before any kind of forced busing should be put into effect.

The Office for Credit-Free Programs, located in Hayes Annex B, was founded in 1965. Since then, it has developed hundreds of activities which feature courses, conferences, institutes, seminars, workshops and lecture series. Over the past Kerman, “Dogs Course” has been a big success.

A -new computer system to replace the now in use CDC 6400 is scheduled for installation in early July. Final approval was recently granted for a CDC CYBER 173 computer system by the SUNY Systems Development. The new computer is similar to the one presently operating but it provides approximately two and one-half times the “through put” power. The central memory and permanent file space will be doubled for further advantage to the computer users. Telex port capacity will initially double with plans for further expansion in the first year. The CYBER 173 has excellent enhancement potential, according to Hinrich R. Martens, acting director of University Computer Services. The new computer has the capacity to add more memory, processing and disk storage. If sufficient funding is provided, then the academic computing needs of this University will be amply met over the next five years, he explained. Remote batch In addition to the installation of new central computing facilities, the remote batch terminals will be improved so that they can handle twice their present load. UNI VAC 9200/9300 batch terminals in Parker, Goodyear, Bell Hall and the Ellicott Complex will be replaced by the higher capacity COPE 1600 batch terminals. The projected arrival of the new computer systems in July culminates a two-year plus effort to upgrade the computer facilities on campus. Martens indicated. The upgrading process 'almost did not happen due to the statewide budgetary crisis. This University, however, was permitted to reallocate sufficient funds within the legislative budget using nonpersonnel lines, he added. Coordination The entire process of obtaining technical and budgetary approval required a high level of coordination between the many participants, Martens indicated. The staff of the academic computing center was responsible for the evaluation and selecting of vendors. The Advisory Committee for Academic Computing under the chairmanship of James Mclver of the Chemistry Department campaigned for campus-wide support for the project and asked President Robert Ketter to do all in his power to secure the appropriate funds. Access to the new system will be limited through a process as yet to be announced. One of the primary concerns of the process will be to an increase income to University promote Computing Services for services rendered to externally funded research projects. The new equipment requires higher standards of site preparation than the one currently in service, according to Martens. These standards include a different type of “grid grounding” which must be installed in the subfloor. To facjhtate this improvement, computing operations will be suspended for up to two weeks this summer. Every will be made to minimize this attempt inconvenience, he added.

Monday, 3 May 1976 �Ju/y 4th Some trouble to be expected this year by Mike McGuire Campus Editor Several million Americans will converge on either Philadelphia or Washington, D.C. on July 4 to celebrate the nation’s Bicentennial, according to official estimates. They will see pageantry and exhibits, and listen to speakers expound on their view of the country’s past 200 years. For those who are already somewhat weary of Bicentennial hoopla, however, two alternative Bicentennial programs will be presented the same day in Philadelphia and Washington. In sharp contrast to Philadelphia’s official Bicentennial program featuring President Ford, a coalition initiated by the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (WAW) will be presenting a program revolving around the slogan, “We’ve been carrying the rich on our backs for 200 years, them off!” The let’s get “celebration” starts on July 1 and culminates on the Fourth. Sweat and toil The WAW, which is joined in the July Fourth Coalition by the Unemployed Workers Organizing Committee (UWOCC), the Revolutionary Student Brigade (RSB), and the Revolutionary Communist Party (RCP), takes the view that American history has been a continuing saga of sweat and toil for most people while the rich have led a life of ease. Sheryl Gordon, of the State University at Buffalo chapter of RSB, emphasized that participants will not be demonstrating against those who attend the official program, but that they are opposing a “handful” of rich families who run this country. While people like the Mellons, DuPonts, and Rockefellers call for unity behind their exploitation, said Gordon, the demonstrators will be linking up the various struggles now going on into a unified mass movement. The two main demands for the m£rch will be “Jobs or Income Now!” and “We won’t fight in rich men’s wars!” Gordon asserted that the two “running scores” of American capitalism have been wars and unemployment. Wars serve to relieve unemployment, she said, but unemployment invariably follows each war to form a “war-crisis-war” cycle. Link up struggles According to Gordon, a number of local workers’ caucuses and other local groups will join the national groups for the demonstration. Philadelphia Gordon characterized the planned actions as “sometimes militant, and disciplined but well-organized.” Gordon saw the Phildelphia demonstration as an excellent way for students fighting cutbacks to assert their solidarity with other victims of the current economic crisis. ‘The crisis is hitting students here and elsewhere mostly in the form of cutbacks, but it’s hitting the rest of America in the form of unemployment, wage cuts, cuts in public services, the threat of war and so forth. July 1 A is an opportunity for us to link our fights as one common struggle against the rich who rule this country.” ‘The demonstrations are a declaration that we won’t just fight for crumbs, but that we’ll fight instead to get the rich off our backs altogether,” Gordon �, concluded. — Washington events Alternative Bicentennial events will also be held in Washington under the sponsorship of the People’s Bicentennial Commission (PBC). The PBC has attracted national attention through its “counter-celebrations” of Paul Revere’s ride and the Boston Tea ■ Party. The group’s activities will start early in the morning of the an Fourth with inter-denominational memorial service at the Jefferson Memorial, in honor of all the men and women who died in “people’s struggles” across America in the past 200 years.

After spending upwards of $10,000 for tuition and living expenses over four years in order to obtain an undergraduate degree, the student would be forced to wait on yet another line and fork over yet another $1 each time his file is sent out. If Placement decides to institute this fee, nobody on this campus will benefit. All money raised will go back to Albany; Placement will not be able to use it to expand its services or even to rehire the secretary there who was recently retrenched. Students could lose as much as $20 in placement fees and more forms will have to be processed by Student Accounts which will help neither their staff not the students who wait on their apparently interminable lines. As Placement Director Eugene Martel points out, however, this proposal is not yet reality. It will be discussed this summer, when at least some of us will be here, and decided on in time for next fall. If it should be implemented, we can expect in the next few years to be "nickeled and dimes to death" first a fee will be charged for testing, then counseling, and eventually for nearly any necessary campus - — serviced Curiously enough, the idea did not originate in some bureaucrat's office in Albany. It started on this campus, and students, faculty and staff should ensure that this pointless proposal die a quick death here. for students to create one of their own.

Two questions come to mind; What is the overtones, The third attempt to conduct the Student Association (SA) Financial Assembly ended virtually seconds after it began Friday afternoon when a group of angry students upset the tables in Haas Lounge. This is the third year in a row that childish shenanigans have disrupted what were supposed to be rational public discussions of the SA budget, and frankly, enough is enough. Adjournment of the meeting Friday now means the budget is completely out of the hands of the student body, subject to final approval by the Executive Committee only. Students who saw fit to carry on last week may pat themselves on the back for forfeiting the much sought after opportunity for "open government." The SA Executives and the Financial Assembly gave students every possible chance for open hearings but there was no reason for them to subject themselves to humiliation and the threat of physical violence any longer. They are, after all, students like anyone else. They do not under any circumstances deserve the kind of treatment they received at the hands of other students. The circus comes to town every year.

To the Editor: It has been brought to our attention that on line add-drop for the Fall semester begins two weeks before the dorms open. This is highly unfair to the half of undergrads who will not be in Buffalo then (and can’t be due to the expense of travel, motels, etc.). Commuters have a tremendous advantage and will be able to close many courses out. I do not want to dampen your day, but instead make you think about your long-distance friendships. Yesterday my friend since childhood was killed in the St. Thomas plane crash. Joanie lived life to the fullest, so it is hard for me to associate the word death with her.

Steven London answer the feel compelled to I misrepresentations of Murray Nussbaum’s letter on Wednesday, April 28, 1976 regarding problems of commuters. First, Mr. Nussbaum begins with the understatement of the year that commuters are slighted at this University.” Then he goes on to state that dorm students are not getting a bargain regarding SA activities. FACT: While it is true that a large chunk of the SA budget goes to athletics, NYPIRG, CAC, which commuters may benefit from, I have also found that few Buffalo area commuters are involved in these organizations. In addition, involvement in these groups is not just motivated by a desiry to help others, but it is also true that when these people apply to law or graduate schools, having worked in NYPIRG looks very good on their applications. FACT: Mr. Nussbaum cites one organization where commuters are the major users. The organization is APHOS, which is a club for pre-med, pre-dental, or other health careers. He then haphazardly decides that because this one organization has many commuters, then all clubs have the same proportion. NONSENSE!!! Go to a few club meetings or any meetings of the student government and you will find almost no Buffalo area commuters. So I'm afraid Mr. Nusshaum's “gut feeling” is dead wrong. “ Swing at the puck only ... To the Editor I am writing this letter as a reaction to last Wednesday’s article on hockey violence written by Larry Amoros. In it, Mr. Amoros suggests that the action taken by Toronto DA Roy McMurty in a recent hockey game was inappropriate. I disagree. Severe hockey violence, such as the recent melee in Toronto, must be curbed somehow. Obviously, the NHL has not been doing the job. I don’t know how long Mr. Amoros has been a hockey fan, but he would do well to consider hockey violence in the past. I can only recall my first hockey game. 1 was seven years old when 1 was taken to Madison Square Garden for the first time. In the middle of the second period a fight broke out. Both teams cleared their benches and engaged in a stick swinging dual that lasted at least 15 minutes. This is not hockey. I admit that violence in hockey has toned down since 1 was seven, but 1 feel that it is on the rise again. If Clarence Campbell (Commissioner of the National Hockey League) does not take any action, then someone, such as the Toronto DA, has to. Mr. Amoros claims that hockey is a violent game by nature. So is football, and you don’t see O.J. Simpson slam a football in an opposing player’s face when he gets angry. It is true that the Flyers’ style of hockey is successful on the ice, and it is also true that they “pack the house” in every arena they play in. But to use these reasons for sanctioning brutal violence suggests that the end justifies the means. Finally, let’s consider a large percentage of the hockey audience, namely the children. Girls and boys tend to emulate sports heroes. Does Mr. Amoros want children.to copy the tactics of a Dave Mr. Nussbaum insists that Norton Hall is not a dorm. While it may not seem like a dorm to Mr. Nussbaum. it sure does to commuters. Dorm students are provided bus service to and from their dorms at regular intervals which enables them to take advantage of the activities going on in Norton. C'ommuters have to have cars, or lake buses to get to Norton. Not all commuters have cars or can get them and taking a bus late at night is not a very appealing or necessarily very safe thing to do in a large city whether it be Buffalo. New York. Syracuse, or Albany. Also, a city bus does NOT lake you right up to your door nor is it scheduled very regularly late at FACT; n ight. FACT: Mr Nussbaum is right in saying UUAB is an area ripe for reform. Thanks to former Commuter Coordinator Boh Wallace and Steve Ferst (who is from the dorms and is a strong supporter of commuter rights) UUAB must now spend 10 percent of its funds during the day so perhaps more commuters may benefit from UUAB’s films and activities. It must be noted, however, that a similar proposal setting the limit at 20 percent was soundly defeated. Since commuters are 55 percent of the Forbes or a Dave Schultz? I suggest that hockey violence must be toned down. If the League will not do it, then people such as Roy McMurty must. The game will only improve Skating, good checking and with less shooting instead of stick swinging, will become the prevailing factor. Larry Myerson iiBe&i, co&ewAvve na/e m/ero FACT: The SA has a rather bizarre way of defining commuters. As a matter of fact there is no mention of commuters in the SA constitution; at le?st where the Constitution explains how At-Large Senators will be elected. In this very important section they use the terms “dorm” and “off-campus” residents. An off campus resident includes not only permanent 12 month residents of Western New York who may have lived in the Buffalo area all their lives, but also former dorm students who have moved into the student ghettos of Minnesota and Lisbon Streets and who live here only eight months a year. Obviously the three groups have different interests and problems. After all, commuting from Lisbon Street is not exactly commuting from South Buffalo, Tonawanda, or Lockport. Also, not surprisingly, most temporary off campus residents still identify more with dorm students and not with permanent life-long residents of Western New York. Mr. Nussbaum’s final comment is whether the organizations are offering services attractive to commuters. A discussion of that could take forever but a few points. First, many UUAB films can be seen on the Late Show. Also, many of the movies reflect the personal view of those in UUAB which is a preference for bizarre foreign films. As a writer for the Commuter Comment wrote: “They’re fascinating the comedies generally take place during the Depression and their dramas are hilarious. The audience usually has a very entertaining time trying to decide if the movie is supposed to be a drama or a comedy. WHERE DOES UUAB FIND THESE FILMS ANYWAY???” Why can’t more popular films be shown at a lower cost? And why can’t they be shown in the afternoons on weekdays and not just on weekends? And when UUAB does hold an afternoon event, why isn’t it better publicized? Just once couldn’t they give some more thought to commuters who provide 55 percent of the mandatory fees? I'm afraid, therefore, Mr. Nussbaum is wrong when he says that our feelings are based “solely on emotion and little fact.” They’re based on emotion and an awful lot of facts. We’re simply not too thrilled about the fact that we are getting ripped off for S67 which we could put to better use. Next time I suggest that Mr. Nussbaum not just leaf through the Commuter Comment but read the whole paper carefully. He might just learn something about - • commuter problems.

Angela Davis: An An tobiography (Bantam Books, paperback, SI.95. 399 pp.) "It is hard to resist feeling curious about her as an individual. For 1 she appears so unusually intelligent, articulate and well-grounded in her beliefs that one almost instinctively looks to her for explanations one wouldn V expect from others. ” Angela Davis was bom in Alabama, and felt the deadly poison of racism seep into every facet of her life. As a young girl, she recalls moving into a white neighborhood with her family, and being kept on their “side” of the street. ” So writes the New York Times. It certainly appears to be an exceptionally high compliment for the Times to give to a militant black woman and leading member of the Communist Party. Angela Davis is deserving of high compliments, and people will look to her for explanations about social, political and economic problems. But the praise of the Times leads people to see Angela Davis as one who stands apart from other people, an image that Angela believes is false. She writes in the Preface: When a black family moved in on the other side (of town) their house was blown up by an a hundred times “explosion louder than the loudest, most frightening thunderclap I had ever heard.” She. recalls restaurants, lunch counters, schools, theatres, neighborhoods, restrooms and other public places for' “Whiles only." “Most Southern Black children of my generation learned how to read the words ‘Colored’ and White’ long before they learned ‘Look, Dick, Look’." “I felt that such a book might end up obscuring the most essential fact: the forces that have made my life what it is are the very same forces that have shaped and misshaped the lives of millions of my people. Furthermore, I am Convinced that my response to these forces has been unexceptional as well, that my political involvement, ultimately as a member of the Communist Party, has been a natural, logical way to defend our embattled humanity . . . with a little twist of history, another Angela visited friends of her family’s in New York during the while she summer, and experienced other forms of racism there, she was glad to be relatively free from the vicious practice of segregation. Yet. in New York, she learned that the image of Northern social harmony was a myth. Angela was about eight at the time, and the McCarthy era was in full swing. She remembers that her friend’s father. James Jackson, went into hiding because the authorities were (poking for him. He was Black, and a leading member of the Communist Party Angela writes: "Because I was too young to know what a Communist was, the meaning of the McCarthy witch hunts escaped me. As a result, I understood only what my eyes saw: evil white men out to get an innocent Black man. ” Discrimination, attacks and murders of black people occurred all around her, and was the most common experience of most black people. An opportunity to attend a progressive high school in New York came along, and Angela took it. Here, she met black and white men and women who were working together to fight for equality and justice. She learned about socialism in her history classes, and when she read the Communist Manifesto “it hit me like a bolt of lightning.” While not completely understanding every passage or idea. Angela writes that she “began to see the problems of Black people within the context of a large working-class movement.” The bombings, beatings, abuse, and bloodshed that she had seen lor so many years “tell into place. What had seemed like a personal haired of me, an inexplicable refusal of Southern whites to confront their own emotions, and a stubborn willingness of Blacks acquiesce, became the to inevitable consequence of a ruthless system which kept itselt alive and well by encouraging spite, competition and the , , oppression of one group by another. Profit was the word: the cold and constant motive for the behavior, the contempt and despair I had seen.” What moved Angela most, “was the vision of a new society, without exploiters and exploited, a society without classes, a society where no one would be permitted to own so much that he could use his possessions to exploit other human beings.” Finished with high school, she enrolled at Brandeis University. Yet. here she felt alienated, and began reading Sartre and the [existentialists. She knew she had 'to change her circumstances, and (decided to go to school in Europe.

Soon she was involved in the case of George Jackson and other prisoners form Soledad, who were charged with murdering a prison guard. While the state had little evidence against them, Angela was convinced that these men were singled out because they had been leaders in the fight to improve prison conditions. During this time, George Jackson’s younger brother Jonathan, armed other prisoners who were on trial in a courthouse in Marin County, California, and they attempted to escape. Prisoners and the Judge died in the shoot-out that followed, and the ownership of one of the guns was traced to Angela Davis. One of the largest searches ever began for Angela, and she was finally apprehended and went on trial. Much of her autobiography goes into details of her flight, imprisonment, and the movement that was built to free her. a Today, Angela is Co-Chairperson of the National Alliance Against Racism and Political Repression, and concludes her book with a plea for others to get involved in the free political movement to prisoners. Specifically, she mentions Reverend Ben Chavis of North Carolina, Donald Smith, and Marie Hill, all of whom are behind bars today.

WORLD-WIDE SOCIAL PROBLEMS — reunion Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) helath, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women in trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of recent, little-known world wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases the readings of these 36 objective tests through statistical correlations or readings measures among primitive tribes and modern nations.

Eventually, towards the end Spectrum Staff Writer of the game I threw nothing but Jim Niewczyk, a Buffalo fastballs. [Catcher Mike] Dixon lefthander, pitched a no-hitter in asked me in the seventh whether I the first game of a doubleheader wanted to throw some breaking against Brockport Friday. The pitches to keep them off balance. Bulls won the game 6—0 and then I told him no, just fastballs. I came back to win the nightcap figured if they were going to get a hit, they may as well hit my best 6-1. by Johnji. Reiss Fpr Niewczyk, it was the first no-hitter of his college career. He has come close in the past but had never managed to go all the way. This time Niewczyk was in control of the game from the start as he struck out sixteen men (setting a record for a seven-inning game). He also had the benefit of a six run leac) from the third inning on. “When you have a lead, tha you’ve got a knowing no-hitter doesn’t affect your pitching that much,” Niewczyk claimed after the game. “Still, you say you don’t think about pitching the no-hitter, but you really do.” Fantastic fastball The southpaw’s big weapon was his fastball. He was getting his smoke over the plate consistently and the Golden Eagles were virtually unable to touch it. “My fastball was definitely my best pitch. I threw it more and ptich.” Only two men reached base off NiewcZyk, as he retired the first thirteen men he faced. He hit Brockport’s Dave Hunt on the elbow in the fifth inning, and Bill McConnell reached base leading off the seventh when Bulls' shortstop Mike Groh booted grounder. McConnell's Unperturbed, Niewczyk struck out the side to complete his no hitter. Buszka stars offensively Niewczyk got all the offensive support from his teammates that he needed as the Bulls scored three times in each of the first two innings. In the first. Bob Amioo singled. Jim Mary walked and John Buszka cracked a home run over the right field fence and onto the sidewalk pavement. Groh lead off the second with a single and Duke Marzo followed by drawing a walk. Amico hit a ground rule double to left that Sports Quiz scored Groh and moved Marzo to third. Then Buszka hit a ball to deep rightfield that appeared to have bounced off the top of the fence and over for a home run. But it was ruled that the ball sailed through the fence for a two run ground rule double. The second game proved to be another easy win for the Bulls. They jumped out to a one run lead in the first when Amico singled, went to third on an error and scored on Buszka’s single. Buffalo put the game away in the second with five big runs. With runners on second and third Marzo and Jack Kaminska hit back to back singles, each of which drove in a run. After Amico walked. Mary and Buszka hit consecutive sacrifice Hies and then John Kidd doubled home Amico. Meanwhile. Buszka did an excellent job on the mound, striking out eleven. He allowed only one hit in five innings, when a bad hop turned a routine grounder into a single. Dave throwing a hard Borsuk. lefthander pitched the last two innings and yielded the only Brockporl run scored all day. Steve Luke got all of a Borsuk pitch and planted it just over the left field fence for a home run.

Fumas awards for outstanding athletes Nine varsity athletes have been selected to receive C.C. Furnas Scholarships for the 1976-77 academic year. The nine were honored at a special luncheon on Thursday, hosted by athletes President Robert Ketter. The scholarships, which range from $500 to $800, are awarded to those who have done well in both athletics and academics during their stay at Buffalo. The scholarship fund was begun in 1965 by the then University Chancellor Clifford C. Furnas, and the fund is currently administered by the University of Buffalo Foundation. The nine athletes are Rich Abbott (tennis), Tom Bremer and (baseball), Gary Marty Schiff (fencing), Mike Dean and Bill Lasky (women’s basketball), basketball), Trapper Anne Domzalski (men’s Jerry Galkiewicz (soccer) and Keil Wurl (swimming). Domzalski was a member of the varsity basketball team ever since his freshman year. He holds the career, season .and single game records plans to tor assists. Domzalski is majoring in physical education and teach or coach after graduation Trapper was the dominating center for the women’s basketball team. She led the Bulls in both scoring and rebounding, and was named one of the ten outstanding players at the New York State Division II Championships. She is also a physical education major and intends to follow a career in adaptive physical education. Lasky and Dean both are pitchers, but that is where the similarity stops. Dean majors in physical education while Lasky is a mathematics major. Dean intends to study rehabilitative medicine in graduate school, while Lasky is hoping for a career in business administration. Abbott graduated in January with the best singles won-lost record in the school’s history. He intends to go to law school in September. As captain of the soccer team, Galkiewicz’ contributions were mostly unselfish ones, as he led the team in assists his senior year. With a double major in geography and economics, he intends to continue his education at Buffalo grad school. Bremer transferred from Navy am' quickly became one ol the school’s top fencers. He is majoring in mechanical engineering, and wants to go to law school to become a legal consultant for engineering Graduate firms Schiff was co-captain of the fencing team, and he intends to attend dental school next year. Buffalo’s top diver, Wurl, made it to the state championships every one of his four years at Buffalo. He is a chemical engineering major. Monday, 3 May 1976 .The Spectrum Page seventeen . �NYPIRG investigates undertaking business The New York Public Interest Research Group, Inc. (NYPIRG) has been chosen by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to serve as consumer representative at the FTC’s upcoming hearing on funeral industry practices. “NYPIRG has long been concerned with the lack of protection offered to consumers of funeral services,” said Donald Ross, Director of NYPIRG, “and participation in these hearings offers a way for us to help end some of the industry’s worst abuses.” The funeral industry has been under fire from consumer groups since publication of The American Way of Death by Jessica Mitford in 1963. Mitford exposed practices in merchandising funeral goods and services. NYPIRG studies conducted throughout New York State revealed that some of the worst practices continue to flourish unabated. Funerals are the third largest expense, behind purchase of a house and car, that most consumers ever confront. “But unlike other major purchases, the prices are usually not carefully scrutinized. Funerals are arranged at a time of shock and grief when consumers are particularly vulnerable,” said Val Washington, the attorney representing NYPIRG at the FTC hearings in New York City. Casket controversy A dignified funeral with adequate services should cost hundreds of dollars less than it does now, NYPIRG contends. “Of course many people may choose to pay more to obtain a more lavish funeral,” adds Washington, “but the option to cut out some of the elaborate extras should be there.” NYPIRG believes that deceptive practices, such as fetaXatelTSI failure to disclose the availability of cheaper caskets and the misrepresentation of legal requirements, deprives many consumers of the full range of choices. The rules proposed by the FTC were designed to stimulate “an industry too long insulated competition in the funeral industry free from the realities of the enterprise system” according to NYPIRG. chosen As the organization to represent consumer interests, NYPIRG will seek to document the particular need for laws requiring disclosure of prices, legal considerations and accurate merchandise descriptions. NYPIRG also supports the FTC’s proposed sanctions for “deceptive practices” of funeral directors. NYPIRG has published a series of guides for New York City, Binghamton and Syracuse dealing with funeral costs. In other cities, organized opposition by funeral directors thwarted publication of similar guides. - Advance registration Advance registration materials are available to all undergraduates in Diefendorf Hall from now until May 7.

Upon discovery of a theft, the tapes would be viewed. However, inventory at the Art Department is only taken twice a year. opened at the discretion of the secretaries. No communication system has been planned. The system has another major drawback. The basement, used by both art and architecture students, has no security planned for it and was described as “the most vulnerable area” by one student. Once the system goes into effect (the date has not been set) access to the basement will be limited to the elevators. It is entirely possible that an outsider to gain entrance could the elevator with a card-carrying student or faculty member. Once in the basement, where there is no video or alarm system being installed, anything can happen. The planned installation of an extensive security system in the art building, Bethune Hall, at 2917 Main Street, has generated a major controversy among Art Department administrators and Ail wired up Burglar alarms are scheduled students.

A main sculpture studio on the fourth floor where torches and welding machines are used has no extinguishers. In the basement there is a room which, according to a number of students, has an exhaust fan which does not draw in any fresh air. As a result, students frequently complain of headaches and of not being able to work for screen press many hours. As for First Aid, there is According to Robertson, the art department has virtually none. done to provide immediate relief for him while waiting for Campus Security. Another question raised by the students was over an "effective means of communication” to summon Campus Security or other assistance in the event of an emergency. There are no campus phones in the building. The only phones that are in the building are in the secretaries’ offices and on the first floor, which is a pay phone. In the event that an accident or some other emergency occurred after five o’clock when the offices are locked, a student would have to rush down to the first floor to use a public phone. At a meeting on Wednesday, over one hundred students ‘‘no unanimously voted confidence” in the security system as planned. In addition, student representatives were chosed to attend the next faculty meeting. Objections by groups stall approval of SA budget by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Despite attempts to emphasize the parlimentary rules for “structured debate,” Financial Assembly Chairman Steve Speigel recessed a chaotic meeting before any of the Finance Committee’s proposed 13-page budget was voted on. A number of student service and minority organizations and clubs, displeased with the cuts in funding recommended for them by the Student Association (SA) Finance Committee’s proposed resolutions which would have recalled, the Athletic and SA office budgets. Both received substantial increased over last year. After the meeting had run for two hours, however, a recess was called until 2:30 p-im yesterday afternoon so that SA and organization representatives could meet and discuss the situation. Although no SA officials were available to comment on the meeting, one organization spokesperson fold The Spectrum little was settled, and another heated meeting was expected yesterday afternoon. NYPIRG One of the special interest groups most severely cut back by the Finance Committee was the New Uork Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) whose funding was reduced from last year’s $25,000 to $14,500, after requesting an increase to $35,000. Committee, however, said he did This amount, according to believe this was a serious NYPIRG Director-Elect Paul possibility. “There was a NYPIRG Magiotto, would have allowed the here before there was a NYPIRG organization to continue to Central,” he remarked, referring to'the former Western New York function at its present level. The biggest reduction in the Public Research Group organization’s budget was (WNYPIRG). Should NYPIRG attributed to a complete cut in “shut down,” he said, there were staff salaries. According to many other places the money Magiotto, for NYPIRG to lose its could be allocated. legal counsel and nuclear power When questioned during the consultants Marvin Resnikoff would cause the organization to Assembly meeting, SA Treasurer virtually “shut down.” Besides the Carol Block said in preparing its limitation it would put on proposed budget, the Finance research projects, Magiotto said Committee faced three limiting such low funding would probably conditions: 400 Fee Waivers lead NYPIRG’s central office in reduced SA’s income by $26,800; Albany to refuse Buffalo’s there has been no increase in the membership. mandatory fee in three years; and 15 new clubs and organizations One member of the Finance are seeking funding Dummy me When proposing to cut the SA office staff salaries line from $51,000 to $29,452, NYPIRG member David Lennet said he was endeavoring to be “just as stupid as the Finance Committee” to get the Assembly members to object to its treatment of NYPIRG. He pointed out that NYPIRG receives Resnikoffs services for about $8000 a year, which, with benefits, is slightly more than SA’s three full-time secrataries make each. Included in SA’s 11 salaried positions are the salaries of student office workers. Black said these account for about $9000 of the $51,000. �- ■.» * / - - Atf-J' ; Commentary Carter moves closer with Penn victory In the complicated race for convention delegates, Carter pulled another 'surprise, coming Former Governor Jimmy away with more delegates than Carter of Georgia took another either of his main rivals, Jackson giant step toward achieving the or Udall.

Halberstam won a 1964 Pulitzer Prize for his Viet Nam news dispatches for the New York Times and has been nominated for the Pulitzer on two other occasions. He is however, best known for The Best and the Brightest, a book published in 1973, about the Lyndon Johnsopadministration. Halberstam first appeared in the limelight as a Viet Nam war correspondent in 1962. He played a key role in exposing contradictions in the stated American war policy in the early years. His expositions on the Diem regime were the source of much embarassment for American officials and his reports on the combat use of United States “military advisors” was the cause of great concern at the White House. Kennedy irked * President John F. Kennedy personally asked New York Times publisher Arthur Ochs Sulzberger to remove Halberstam from his Viet Nam reporting role in 1962. Sulzberger would not accede to the White House request and even postponed a scheduled vacation for Halberstam so that it would not appear that the publication was bending under Administration pressure. Two years later Halberstam won the Pulitzer Proze for his Viet Nam reporting. After leaving the New York Times Halberstam vent on to publish several books, including One Very Hot Day, Ho, The Making of a Quagmire. The Unfinished Legacy of Robert Kennedy, and the already mentioned The Best and the Brightest. He is cureently writing CBS & the News: The Power and the Profits, which discusses the degree to which political power is possessed in our society by those who control access to information. After thanking the audience for attending his lecture and not the Buffalo Braves basketball game, Halberstam announced that he would give his own “update” on the topics he is most often questioned about. In explaining the attention given to the Woodstein team (Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein), he said what is different about their new book is not their methodology but the high level of work energy and talent that went into producing the book. Sexy Nixon Halberstam said that unlike the published excerpts from Newsweek, protraying a “sexy backdoor relationship” between Nixon and his wife, Woodstein’s book is the story of a government in collapse. It describes a “Hitler’s Bunker” situation with a bright,/ ambitious Alexander Haig caught between a demented President and the problems of the daily administration of a government. Halberstam added a footnote to his commentary on Woodstein, saying that hte movie of their first book is “terrific.” It was in his opinion the best movie ever made on reporting and like many of his colleagues he admitted to being jealous of them. “It would be my luck that if they did a movie about my work as a journalist, I would be portrayed by Walter Mathau and not Robert Bedford,” he said. On the subject of Barbara Walters’ new position as anchorperson on the American Broadcasting Company network news at an annual salary of $1 million, Halberstam complained that his highest salary at the New York Times even after winning the Pulitzer Prize was only $16,000. “I do not think she is classically a journalist, but an interviewer, indeed she asks the questions that a lot of very average citizens would ask,” he said in explaining the major area of her reporting prowess. The oldline broadcast journalist is being replaced by glamour kings and queens, especially the “Redford-like” local anchorman, charged Halberstam. The coming of Walters to national news is bridging the gap between the oldline network news and its local affiliates. However, the knowledge that the anchorperson has a hairstylist on call and arrives at the studio in a chauffer driven limosine cannot improve at all the quality or credibility of the news broadcast, he said. Halberstam then alluded to a recent Congressional study of the CIA which stated that as many as 50 journalists also work for the CIA. “I hope that their names will be leaked to Schorr, Sy Hirsch or Carl Bernstein so we can rid ourselves of those wearing two hats,” he said, adding that the nation needs a good intelligence operation but, it should not interfere with the reporting of news. The news media will have to be its own watchdog he explained. Peanut farmer makes good In reflecting on the Pennsylvania primary he said that 20 years ago Carter would still have been shelling peanuts in Georgia. He did compliment Carter’s excellent use of the mass media in attracting favorable coverage to his campaign and getting votes. Despite the full array of Party Machine and labor leaders supporting Jackson, this support could not be transformed into votes because now modern television media gives the candidate access to the voters that in the past were reached only by the ward boss. This is a major part of the drastic changes in the American lifestyle in the past 30-40 years according to Halberstam. What is more astonishing, “going to the moon or being able to watch a man on the moon at home?” he asked his audience. With this increase in news reporting technology of the past few years, the office of the Presidency has become more powerful than ever, he said. Halberstam referred to this new broadcast power of the chief executive as an “unwritten electronic amendment to the Constitution.” The opponents of the President cannot possibly get equal media time, this is so serious because the founding fathers never envisioned the “President or Soveriegn” of all the people “parachuting” into everyone’s home when they developed the office of the presidency, he explained. The media vs. the President Real political party control of the electroate was ended in 1960 when the Kennedy-Nixon debates were aired on national tv, according to Halberstam. He cited as an example of how far this has extended as the 1972 Committee to Re-elect the President, in which the Republican Party did receive the campaign donations, but an organization directly responsible to the President collected and dispersed the campaign funds. In the two major obstacles faced by the presidency in the last 16 years (the Viet Nam war and Watergate), the major adversary of the President was not the opposition in Congress, but the new? media, according to Halberstam. President Johnson at a convention of journalists in Chicago the day after announcing he was not a candidate for re-election, blamed the press for the American loss in Viet Nam, he added. Nixon was obsessed by the power of tv, observed Halberstam. The former President desired to control his tv exposure to such a degree that in his campaign Haldeman was able to limit the amount of opportunities the press would have to photograph Nixon to one a day instead of the usual four or five, This obsession continued through the Nixon presidency, even to the point when the Watergate scandal was closing in. Nixon, Haldeman, and Ehrlichman still felt that skillful manipulation of the press could save them, he added.' • --j , TIME IS RUNNING OUT FROM The - GET THE COPIES YOU NEED OFFICE OPEN DAILY 9 AM -r- 5 PM — x\| i - 355 Norton Union j Student Senate vote on new amendment by Cindy Kaplan Spectrum Sports Writer The Student Senate passed an amendment to the Student Association (SA) constitution in its final meeting Tuesday, changing the status of the Minority Affairs Coordinator and International Affairs Coordinator to voting members of the Executive Committee. Previously, the two positions, along with the Commuter Affairs, held non-voting seats, the Derby. This excitement is what the Derby really is, the horse race Treasurer. Also expressing approval of the amendment was Frank Jackalone, SASU delegate and former SA President. No one spoke against the proposal, and it was passed 27 to 1. The Executive Committee is an emergency action-decision making body composed of 13 members of SA: The President; Executive Vice President; Vice President of Sub Board; Treasurer; the Directors of Academic Affairs, Student Affairs, and Student Activities and Services, the three SASU delegates; and the Coordinators for Minority Affairs, Commuter Affairs and International Affairs. The new amendment changes the number of voting members of the committee from 10 tO 12. Minorities pick coordinator Also passed was an amendment stating that, “The Minority Student Affairs Coordinator shall be elected by the Minority Groups, with the approval of the Student Senate.” All the other members of the Executive Committee are either elected by the students in a general election or else appointed by SA. In other major business, the Student Senate approved with some opposition all of the appointments made by SA President Steve Schwartz. The procedure for appointments to SA positions, according to Dennis Black, chairman of the Personnel and Appointments Committee, is that the Personnel and Appointments Committee (composed of nine Senators and the Executive Vice President) interviews all the applicants and hands down a recommendation to in most cases the SA whomever is making the appointment President. Only those committee members present at the interviews of all candidates for a position can vote on the recommendation. The President then appoints someone to the position. The Student Senate must approve all presidential appointments. — Dirty politics? Ron Washington’s appointment as Director of Public Information was finally passed but after an accusation by Senator Jill Siegal that “dirty politics” was involved. Since only two members of the Personnel and Appointments Committee were present at all the interviews for the position, and each had a different preference (Executive Vice President Steve Speigel favored Ron Washington while Chairperson Block favored Marty Schwartz), the appointment was made by Steve Schwartz. Schwartz explained his decision saying, “I granted both candidates Ron’s publicity work at Bronx second round interviews. Community College and his efforts to join the CUNY (City University of New York) schools together determined my choice.” Appointments were approved for three people as board members of Sub Board Inc.: David Brownstein, Art Lalonde and Judy Sack. Schwartz’s appointments were made even though the Personnel and Appointments Committee, in this case represented by Spiegel alone, suggested Howie Cohen (Inter-Residence Council President) in place of Brownstein. Schwartz was approved as the fourth board member of Sub Board, but only after an objection by Senator Mike Jones who said, “The President should be a full time job . . . I don’t think the President should be a member of Sub Board.” Abdul Wahaab also questioned whether, “Steve can be effective on Sub Board.” Schwartz justified his own appointment explaining, “It’s important to have the President there to lead the committee as a carry-over from SA to Sub Board.” (The fifth undergraduate board member is Jon Roller, who was elected Vice President for Sub Board in last month’s SA elections.) Several other presidential appointments were also passed by the Senate: Russ Fustino as Sub-director for the North Campus, Judy Garelick and Steven Blumberg as assistant treasurers, Laura Bartlett to the Parcel B Advisory Committee (Parcel B is the planned shopping center for the North Campus), Janet Evans as Director of the Speakers’ Bureau, and David Brownstein and Joyce Levin as SASU Coordinators.

When asked her particular reactions to getting high, A. Comet “When I’m highlcantalk blurted: by Cliff Dickson Spectrum Staff Writer Have you ever, in the depths of a marijuana induced coma, found yourself unable to tie your shoes? Pot smokers often suffer from Marginal Concentration Activity Disfunction (MCAD), the inability to perform simple tasks which are ordinarily handled without conscious effort. This phenomenon is prevalent at many institutions of higher learning, this University notwithstanding, where, many rpeople say, students espouse a “chemical clearly wcllnotreallybut yes lean sometimesbutit’s likelcanthinkclea rlybutallthewordsyouknowdon’tseemtocome outright.” Stardom bound cafe guitarist and voice of his generation G. Zuck spoke from Red Jacket Quad of the particular way in which “disfunction” affected him. “1 was appearing at a small club in the Village, very stoned, doing a ibally intricate guitar piece. It was going along smoothly when about half-way through I dropped my pick. It was very embarassing, but I retreived the pick and continued. A few bars later I dropped it again; by this time I was almost crying. After the third fumble I was so frustrated that I smashed my guitar to the ground and stormed off. I guess that’s how Pete Townshend started.” philosophy.” MCAD has received little attention from niedical science. Marijuana studies have, in the past, been designed to test limits of endurance or reaction speed (i.e. the effects of electro-shock torture on the cannibus user as opposed to on the non-user). Consequently it is left to the “afficionado” to his own study unconscious coordination. (Three times daily however, is not necessarily an advisable rate of experimentation.) If stapling fingers and bumping into stationary objects have become part of a daily routine, then interest should be taken in MCAD research. Studies have been conducted, but not yet to the extent warranted by the growing scope of “disfunction.” In Fargo Quad alone, 17 spilled bongs were reported last week, leading noted drug researcher S. Berg to comment: “It seems that the. problem gets more acute later in the year. The effect of the drug, Tetra-Hydro-Cannibinol, the lactive ingredient in marijuana is culmulative with regard to MCAD. Two semesters at this University and many students are no longer physically capable of taking a shower. 1 just wonder why they always spill bongwater on my bed.” Manipulating gym suits B. Wise of Richmond Quad, another researcher, has, after years of intensive experimentation, reached several conclusions regarding the nature of MCAD. “I’ve found that people can play tennis or basketball stoned, but are often less successful in changing into their gym clothes than actually playing ball.” Wise designed a study in which the low concentration coordination of 10 pot smokers was compared to that of 10 non-smokers. Two circles were formed and drug a joint placed at an arbitrary starting point in each. The reefer was passed from hand to hand; whether the smokers or non-smokers finished 10 laps first would determine if marijuana usage effects marginal concentration activity. When informed that the experiment was scientifically invalid because the smokers had the advantage of practice, Wise said, “What do you expect from an English , Smokathon At a recent Ellicott smokathon, 400 in Buffalo Self help program aids Vietnamese refugees When vast numbers of Vietnamese refugees entered the United States last summer, over 400 settled in the Buffalo area. Realizing that these people faced many confusing language and cultural barriers, the Vietnam Student Association and the Intensive English Language Institute (IELI) helped form a small volunteer group called the Vietnam Self-Help Program. Initiated last October with about 30 members, the prt 'ram is the only Vietnamese refugee organization in the country without any local, state or federal funding. Although groups on campus are involved with the program, access to classroom facilities are not allowed because it isn’t officially affiliated with the University. ' Nghia Nguyen and Le Thi Xuan Ha, a senior at this school, both helped establish the program. For her efforts, Ms. Ha received a community service award from the Student Association, citing her services to the community. Teaching the rudiments The self-help program is presently being conducted in the Newman Center, where classes and small group discussions are held every week. individual tutors are assigned to work on a one-to-one basis with Often a Vietnamese immigrant. Because the program has no money, textbooks cannot be purchased. But IELI Director Stephen Dunnet has allowed access to the Institute to help tutoring English. According to co-coordinator Helen Funnicello, the program gears itself towards high school or college age people. The program concentrates on teac ing these young adults the rudiments of the English language, and acquainting them with the social lifestyle of Americans. Father Dominic Luong, a Catholic Priest, runs a small Vietnam self-help group on Deleware Avenue. It is here housewives, small children and older people find assistance not available at the Center. anonymous Bongwater on calculus His failed experiment led Wise to observe “We’re getting pretty good at passing joints these days because joint handling has left the realm of marginal concentration activity to become the subject of primary mental effort.” He was, however, able to offer a hard clinical example of MCAD. I was playing with my Bong without realizing it was full. I spilled about a quart of bongwater on my open calc, book.” Was he distressed?*! just tore out the pages, set ’em ablaze, and snorted them right up.” Many drug researchers feel that MCAD might be affecting American politics.

There is no way of knowing for certain without a full physical and mental examination of the President, but it is a matter of public record that he is aware that his son and daughter get high.

At an estimated cost of $9000, the network of video cameras, burglar alarms, and card access systems is simply not justified by the thefts that have been reported to Campus Security in the past four years, thefts which barely total $1000, according to Security records. Additionally, the system already has a number of obvious loopholes and flaws which will prevent it from serving as an effective deterrent against possible theft. The basement, for example, which is used by both art and architecture students, will not be profited by the security hook up. Unauthorized persons could easily obtain access to the basement by riding on an elevator with a card-carrying student or faculty member. The apparent determination of the Art Department Chairman to have the system installed seems way out of line, especially since the very people it is purported to protect object to the project vehemently. There are rumors that should the security system work in Bethune Hall, similar operations will be installed in other buildings on the Amherst and Main Street campuses, once again limiting student access. Would Hayes Hall be one of the electronically surveyed buildings? A large number of art students have been struggling continuously to block the security system since its coming was announced two weeks ago and over 100 voted no confidence in the system in a special meeting this week. Cutting art students off from their materials at night is like locking the UGL at 5 p.m., and the former is exactly what will happen unless they are all given keys to the ten rooms that will be locked after hours. With all the money that has been cut out of the budget this year, it is inconceivable how the University can spend $9000 on a security system that the art students clearly do not want and that will probably not afford the type of protection intended. If the University officials want to improve the building, perhaps one way they might start is by installing a campus phone that is accessible to art students after the administrative offices close. The way things are now, a student working late at night on the third or fourth floor who notices anything suspicious would not have a telephone to use to call Security. The nearest telephone is a pay phone on the first floor. If the student had no change, then what would he/she do? There are too many problems with this security system for the University to justify shoving it down students' throats. It creates a needless expense, one that the University can certainly do without. - The Spectrum Friday, 30 April 1976 Vol. 26, No. 80 Editor-in-Chief - Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard K or man Advartiaing Managar Gorrv McKnen Business Manaoar Howard Greenblatt — — - David Raphael Brett Kline Graphic* Bob Budiansky Jill Kirschenbaum Layout C.P.

We, the Graduate Students of the Department of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese, are unanimously opposed to the proposed merger of our Department with the Departments of French, Germanic and Slavic, to create a Department of Modern. Languages. This arrangement has already been implemented in various other universities, notably the University of Rochester, where it has resulted in administrative and teaching inefficiency. At this University, three years ago, a merger of the Departments of French and Spanish had been proposed for economic reasons, but on discussion, it was found that this economy was merely specious. Now, the proposal seems to be on a larger scale, as it includes the Department of Germanic and Slavic. This proposal appears also to be made principally for economic reasons. The posts of two chairpersons would be saved, and one individual would be placed in charge of all the departments concerned. But when one considers that each department would retain the semi-autonomy, its Associate Chairpersons, and have separate committees, the resultant economy would most likely be non-existent. Besides, the reason usually advanced by Albany for the merging of departments is that they are not functioning properly. This is surely not the case with any of the departments concerned. SINCE ALL OF THEM FAVORABLY RATED IN THE LAST S.E.D. REPORTS. Perhaps, the administration is tacitly acknowledging that its proposal is arbitrary, that its decision would not redound to the benefit of any of the departments concerned, by handling this matter in such a clandestine and undemocratic manner. In the French Department, according to the / information of students, there was no discussion but this decision was handed down as a “fait accompli” late last week. Within the Spanish .Department, despite the requests over the last six months for more information, and for an open discussion, by at least two professors, nothing was discussed. The reason advanced was that this matter was not immediate. Suddenly, last week, the cat was let out of the bag, when someone mentioned that the administration had not only agreed upon but was ready to implement the merger. What we strongly protest against is not only this secrecy itself and its undemocratic overtones, but also the fact that this secrecy has stifled the voicing of cogent arguments for the maintenance of these departmental structures as they exist at present. The Spanish Department has struggled for a long time to create a department of national and international standing, to develop a viable graduate program, to foster avenues in which the views of both faculty and students could be heard. A1 of this would be in jeopardy if we were suddenly submerged under the rubric of an amorphously organized Department of Modem Languages. We are also sure that the Departments of French and German would Iik£'t6 fetain their identity, autonomy, and safeguard their reputations and their graduate programs. We urge, therefore, an end to secrecy, misinformation and authoritarian handling of this matter, and maintain, it should be brought before all faculty and students involved and openly discussed in a democratic manner. Our agreement is necessary before any attempt at amalgamation should even be entertained. .• The Graduate Students-of Spanish, Italian and Portuguese Watch that bike To the Editor. Roughly two weeks ago I rode my newly tuned bicycle from my palatial suite on Bailey Avenue to engage in two relaxing hours of swimming fun at crowded Clark Hall Pool, leaving said bicycle locked to the bicycle rack in front of Clark. I neglected to quick release my quick release Weinmann front rim and lock it to the frame a sad and tragic error. Needless to say, upon leaving Clark I found -.nay, I did not find my quick release hub still attached to my frame. It had been quickly released. Plunged into the depths of sobriety, I only notified Campus Security, who were very helpful in giving me a ride home with the mutilated machine. While being helpfully whisked home I thought “well, since this has happened it probably will preclude anything else happening to my bike, but how can I afford a new tire, wheel, hub etc., etc., ad infinitum? Tonight I rode the same bicycle, with a very shoddy and wobbly borrowed front rim, to - Diefendorf to see Ben Bur. Now, get ready, because this is the interesting and thought provoking part of the letter; When I left the film to ride home I found that someone had taken by Brooks saddle and replaced(!) it with a very shoddy plastic seat. But that’s not all, folks! While in the process of pilfering my seat the culprits removed my saddle bag and U.B. license plate, and attaching them to my new seat, a process taking 5-10 minutes. c b' So the moral of the story is four-fold: t. Your best bicycle lock is your eyes. 2. If you lock your bike anywhere take every precaution to keep ail the parts assembled in one ; ; spot when you return. 3. If you lock your bike anywhere expect to lose something you can’t lock. 4. Whether or not you ride a bicycle, if you see anybody hovering over a locked bicycle with a monkey wrench or similar looking device while on campus, ASK QUESTIONS!

Shut Lei Chen Less ranting To the Editor: This letter is in response to David Slive’s letter which appeared in the April 23rd edition of The Spectrum. David’s letterreferred to the speech made by Jimmy Carter in which he used the term “ethnic purity.” In his letter David informs us that “Mr. Carter’s wanton use of the term “ethnic purity” constitutes a bellicose manifestation of racism. I would be very interested to know how David found out that Mr. Carter meant this to be a “bellicose manifestation of racism.” Perhaps David has personal access to Mr. Carter and called him up on the telephone to ask himTThe only bellicosity that I can detect is in David’s interpretation of Mr. Carter’s remark. It would seem that David himself is bellicose ' and wishes to project it onto Mr. Carter. Mr. Carter explained himself in the news conference he had subsequent to making this remark. He fully intends to support equality of opportunity for all ethnic groups in America. He does not intend to forcibly destroy all local neighborhoods. Mr. C rter is nof a segregationist. This can be deduced by looking at his actions while Governor of Georgia. Perhaps David should do a little less ranting and a little more listening before he jumps to conclusions. I resent very much David’s comparison of Mr. Carter’s statement to the “Hitlerite concept of racial purity.” It is very unfortunate that David has such a poor understanding of who Hitler was and what he stood for. One should not go around labeling everyone with a different viewpoint as a Nazi. This obscures the true meaning of Naziism. It was one of the vilest and most destructive movements ever conceived of by mankind. David should do some reading about what took place in Europe during World War II. Perhaps if he understood the true meaning of Naziism, he would not tryt to turn it into a cliche to be hurled at anyone with whom be happens to disagree. David should not try to impress us by quoting (out of context) from Harold Laski and Arthur Schlessinger. Instead he would do better to try to straighten out his own thinking. Norman Frankel �*• r-5fc Reggae is whitewashed for the American music industry by Walt Behnke Special to The Spectrum The wave of reggae fever, forecasted by nearly every member of rock journalism's to cogniscenti sweep North America for the past five years, is apparently at hand. The current Waiters' tour as well as Jimmy Cliff's successes last year (consummated by his appearance on the Paul Simon-Phoebe,Snpw benefit) are reasonable indicators that the industry is, for better or worse, ready for rock-steady. The question that still haunts many of the music's more 'underground' audience, those hermits subsisting on a dearth of available imports and a few domestic releases, is. precisely what aspects of reggae will survive its assimilation into the multi-billion dollar American music industry, and which will be / * suppressed? Honky reggae There seems to be little doubt that the entertainment complex of promoters and record companies will find it in their best interest to play down some of the music's more radical aspirations in avor of a strictly formal There's an interpretation. indication of this on the Stones' new LP Black and Blue. The cover of Eric Donaldson's regpae hit of 1971 "Cherry Oh Baby" sans rudness and patois, rivals only Patti Smith's "Redondo Beach" for its honkey anemia. Other examples of reggae whitewashing such as Clapton's "I Shot the Sheriff," the Dead's Blues for Allan album and even Paul Simon's "Mother and Child Reunion," the first to actually use Jamaican musicians, offer little evidence that white musicians will be willing to accept reggae on its own terms. Like the New Orleans “Jump" music and the urban R&B of the fifties, the roots and conditions under which reggai has come to be will be de-emphasized for the sake of promoting a mass culture entertainment. The language, the • simplicity, certainly the politics, the basic rudeness of reggae will be asked to give way to the calypso-like effect that can be superimposed over any rock song, by relocating the bass accent from the first to the second beat and including a sharp, muffled rhythm guitar style called "cuffin." Presley not Boone Like the early black music of America's 40's that sprang from the ghettoes of Chicago and Detroit, rubbing up against jazz and the blues, migrating through the south to mysteriously influence parts of the Texas backwoods, and the ports of louisiana, reggae grew by leaps and bounds, the unlikely offspring of diyerse parents. Throughout the late 30's and 40's, calypso served as the- English language music of the Caribbean. Giants like the Mighty Sparrow are today performing what the tourists of those days listened to amidst the hullabaloo of the Caribbean heydays. During the 50's the music mated with the West Indian Mento and West African sounds and grew into dance music at the black clubs under names such as Ska, Rock-Steady, Blue Beat, Skank, and Reggae. It was the result of people like Cliff and Desmond Marley, Dekker listening to AM radio broadcasts from the states playing thie early R&B of the Drifters, Huey Smith, Jewel Aikens and Fats Domino. As translated, the beat changed, the tempo slowed to match the climate, but R&B it was and still remains. To make it more complex, Marley admits to being greatly influenced by the rock and roll of many of America's white musicians, mainly Presley and Rick Nelson (both of whom treated black music more on its own terms than most of their peers, i.e., Pat Boone and Chubby Checker), and considers the Beatles roots for his brand of _ reggae. The thing is that reggae may be of outgrowth the one Afro-American culture that whites have had a productive and appreciable role in forming. Both from a technical and promotional standpoint British musicians and friends, notably Chris Blackwell and Perry Henzell have made reggae's viability in the world market as well as in native Jamaica. But more importantly, it is the influence upon Jamaican music of American pop, by that time a complex of cultural strains, that enables it to compete in this amazingly sophisticated and muscular market as a progressive music Fundamental reggae Marley himself, son of a Jamaican woman and a British this symbolizes man, best complexity of roots and influences that puts reggae at the top of the list of cultural treasures for those seeking to be bailed out of the numbing legacy of the 70's. And for the skeptics, it is Marley more than anyone else to watch. Rastman Vibration is a remprkable response to those harbingers inside the industry (critics) who see it as a matter of time before these highly idealized Wailers go the way of Bob Dylan and the Dead, towering their expectations for change, seeking private lives and the opportunity to release undisturbing quality work all under the auspices of a widened maturity. Marley has played a trick. The 1976 tour has been a guaranteed sellout for a year (except here for some reason). The- 1976 album has been guaranteed gold. Yet, instead of releasing an album as rich and sophisticated as Natty Dread or Burnin', Rastman seems to be opting for some more basic formal structures with more attention to the conceptual principles his work has been about since the late 60's. Political reggae The lyrics belie new concerns for Marley, that were not so much in evidence in the past seven albums. Agriculture is thematic in at least three of the new songs. Not the growing of herb (grass) as in the past works, but the non-Rastifarian agri-business of corn and the oppressiveness of growing food for other people while your people starve. Two songs "Rat Race" and "Johnny Was" abound with urban themes: waste; young kids and political violence abound. One track, "Niglht Shift" even deals with Marley's experiences working at the Wilmington Chrysler Plant tor the three years |'65-'68) before he re-patriated to Jamaica fleeing the American draft. Another curious fact is that for the first time in the seven (or eight) Wailers albums available, Marley hasn't penned all the songs. Bob Marley actually wrote only two, "Night Shift" and a mellow ballad "Cry to Me." The remainder were written by band members. "Johnny Was," a beautiful ballad in the tradition of "No Woman No Cry," comes by way of Rita Marley, ascending reggae star in her own right, member of the I-Threes who accompany the Wailers on tour and the mother of some of Bob's eight childrne. The dynamic Barrett Brothers, formerly of the Upsetters, legendary reggae stars, authored three cuts including "Want More," a really tasty skank song, warning against back-stabbers and nay sayers, and "War," adapted from a California speech by Haile Selassie I . The title cut as well as "Roots", "Rock." "Reggae" an updated political version of Toot's "Do the Reggae," were written by V. Ford, Rasta-mon and friend of the family. With Rita he wrote one of the most powerful songs on the album, "Crazy Baldhead," which at first seems to refer to the British skinheads who are largely responsible for supporting reggae throughout the past decade, but on close listening alludes to general colonialists in who exterminated the indigenous Arawak indians, (the Spanish) and settled the land with African and Indian slaves (The British). and build the cabin and plant the corn Didn't my people before me Slave for this country Now you look me with a scorn And you eat up all my corn We gonna chase them crazy baldheads Out of town. / / / / Mastafarian culture faithfully interpreting the biblical ban on the combing and cutting of men's hair rightfully pinpoints all non-Rastas as baldheads. Wailers' Connection There is however, despite the diverse authorship of the tracks, a cohesiveness to the album that confirms Marley's presence. The lyrics to Wailers' music always more rhetorical than more prayerful than poetic; this (inked to the seems imagistic, rock and roll the Wallers band represents is the key to their Marley is a uniqueness. personality on record and especially of in person extraordinary person, with an aggressiveness and elan that forces people to regard him in the same light as Jagger or whoever. It is Marley's control and personna that pulls the band above the pedagogical postures of Burning Spear, a recent reggae release on Island, into the fresh and open air of mass acceptance; yet at the same time holding to a tangible enough principle of Rastafarian lifestyle to prevent them suffering from the innocuousness of another debut band Third World. (Both albums are recent releases and recommended for rasta-fledglings). The politics in Marley's music exists within it. You find yourself conceding to his principles of right and wrong as your body responds to the infectious rhythm of skank. Danci is first and foremost what a reggae experience is about and there's no way to learn unless you see the I Threes shuck and sway or Marley wrapped in his amp cord from half dozen pirouettes, shaking his locks and singing songs of Jah! You need only be sympathetic to a good time, have a bit of belief that life can improve with human effort, that the chains of racism block all our paths and that ethnic culture can touch you on its own terms; no further ideology is unbelieveable powerhouse required. �7?vyv Sit-coms to news TV displays macho in by Phillip Krause EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITY residential treatment camps Television is one of the most pervasive perpetuators of th? myth of male dominance in our culture. The men who run the industry treat women whether they are on television or in front of it as if they were something to be taken care of. In its attempt to give women what they want (or, at least, what they are supposed to want), the medium has become a kind of electronic sugar daddy adding yet another oppressive ring around the feminist collar. Although television tries to cater to all segments of the product-buying population by reducing viewers to the simplest of stereotypes, it is especially cruel to women. Just look at the kinds-of programs the industry spews out for their consumption. Between her bon-bons and fan magazines, the typical woman is supposed to endure a daily barrage of insipid quiz shows hosted by disc jockeys turned smiling studs, schmaltzy soap operas with their made-to-order sentiments, and daytime "variety" shows populated by Merv Griffin rejects. The only kind of development a television-watching woman is supposed to experience is that of her bust, as supervised by Jack LaLanne or some other fleshy Philistine. — — GMAT • • Women on television don't fare any better either. For all its talk about how many more opportunities there are for women to portray "realistic" characters on television than in films, the industry treats its women today basically the same as it did twenty years ago. Maude is nothing more than Lucy Ricardo without Clairol; and Alice Kramden (in The Honeymooners) had more independent thoughts than Rhoda will ever have. Most of the women you see on television are hawking household products in commercials, feeding straight lines to their video spouses in situation comedies, or taking up domestic space in order to humanize one of the medium's (too) many police-types. Even those female characters "independent" enough to have their shows named after them are always provided with a steady supply of reassuring males at (frail) arm's length. The fact that they do not have to marry one of them is a concession to the women's movement. Speaking of concessions to the women's movement, last week's news that ABC had succeeded in luring Barbara Walters away from NBC and The Today Show has to rank as one of television's most acknowledgements of the emergence of the visible and expensive 'new woman' in today's society. The network, basking in the fiscal sunshine of its vastly improved ratings, has decided that it could afford to take a chance with a woman (shudder, shudder) as co-host of its evening news program; hopefully, it can also afford to pay her the one million dollars a year (for the next five years) that her contract calls — • & ECFMG GRE * DENT.

The news that Walters reads will be the same news that her partner, Harry Reasoner, would have read by himself.

In choosing to temper the wry, midwestern common sense of Harry Reasoner (and his silver cowlick) with a woman as co-host (would the whole show be too much for the "little lady?"), ABC, instead of "honoring" the new woman, is actually demeaning her. To the network's way of thinking, there is no real difference between the they are just programmed differently "new" and the "old" woman and respond to other stimuli.

Earl Hershberger Spactrum Arts Staff Possibly the only person who can really appreciate the fire and decadence of the works of Franz Liszt, nineteenth century composer and piano virtuoso, is another great pianist. What makes a pianist great is his ability to instill his fervent enthusiasm for a piece into his audience. Even if this were the only criterion for greatness, Andre Watts would be remembered for the rest of time. Fortunately, Mr. Watts is more than a consummate actor; he is a skilled technician of the keyboard. Without going into the phoney-sounding superlatives of so many other critics, l#t me attempt to convey to you what I have seen and heard of Mr. Watts. At the age of twenty, Mr. Watts won the hearts of Buffalonians with his brilliant interpretation of the Macdowell Piano Concerto. I was there and remember the ovation he received; my hands still get sore when I think The various themes of the piece reflect life (especially that of the nobility), the eventual tViumph of Death, and the dual possibilities of the afterlife worlds. It is a difficult piece in that the emotional range is so very wide and can not literally be covered from the experience of a living artist. Mr. Watts keeps Buffalo waiting too long between visits. There is a definite need for more performers of his calibre. The younger generation of performers that Mr. mark to aim for if they are to Watts represents has a standards that this man has set. fulfill the virtuosity Michael Tilson Thomas led the Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra in an exciting, and somewhat heavy performance of Gustav Mahler's Symphony No. 5 in C-sharp minor. It is refreshing to see a conductor, who is usually placed on some sort of pedestal by his audience, make a small, but human, mistake. The Mahler piece was conducted brilliantly by the young conductor. It is a long piece and Mr. Thomas, did you have to sit down very tiring, but on the job? Anyway, bravo and well done. how long we, an enthusiastic and appreciative audience, stood there literally begging I im to return to the stage to accept our adulation. Now, ten years later, I still want him to return to Kleinhans' stage and play again. Franck's Symphonic Variations for Piano and Orchestra could be an interesting piece but nothing to rave about. The interpretation it received at the hands of Mr. Watts last Sunday and Tuesday was probably enough to start a reviva) of the music of Franck. If that revival does occur, it Will be due solely to Mr. Watts. Ultimate challenge Totentanz for Piano and Orchestra by Franz Liszt is a real test of a virtuoso's skill. Each of Liszt's works can be construed as a challenge of interpretation to the performer. Mr. Watts not only met but surpassed the challenge. The Totentanz, literally the "Dance of Death," is said to be Liszt's musical answer to the fresco by Andrea Orcagna in the Santa Groce in Pisa. - Cassavettes 'Bookie' has style but little substance « by Bill Maraschiello Arts Editor "You have no style," Ben Gazzara tells a friend in the early minutes of John Cassavettes' newest film. The Killing of A Chinese Bookie. "I do business with you, but you have no style." Bookie itself makes a different, but much more fatal mistake. It has a surfeit of style the gangly, improvisational style that is both Cassavettes' trademark but less substance than a cat's cradle; lots of string, and his albatross — — but no cat and no cradle. Husbands and A Woman Under The In his previpus, best films Cassavettes dealt with plots which needed very little Influence emphasis to be clear to the viewer. In fact. Husbands' American-macho odyssey actually benefited from the loose grip. Woman's tale of alcoholic schizophrenia. Cassavettes' technique is to depend on the momentary creations of his cast, trusting on their evocations of everyday speech to clarify what's happening. (The theory, apparently, is that the "plot" of life is never really explained, so why should the plot of a film that reflects life?) — - Scattershot Bookie, however, is a gangster film, and a modern one as well. A traditional crime film like The Maltese Falcon can get complicated enough without the conscious introduction of metaphysics into an already complex dramatic scheme. It's the kind of plot that has to be the worst kind for Cassavettes explained in detail to register he Vet it's the one uses. proposes. How complex does it get? After an attentive viewing, I still had to consult another review of the film to understand what had happened. I knew that the graying, jowly, Frank Sinatra-ite Cosmo (Gazzara) was the owner/operator/pimp (confusion already) of a sleazy New York nightclub, and that he had a hefty gambling debt to pay to friends in low places. I'm told Gazzara shoots the "Chinese bookie" to settle that debt, but it wasn't the film that told me. — Unanswered questions accumulate: who was the "bookie?" How did Gazzara find out about his task? How exactly does Gazzara relate to the cheap girls who work at his club? Why is almost a third of the film devoted to the club performances, which are as exquisitely boring as any other sixth-rate soft-porn show? Speech: impediment Even the chatty stretches of dialogue (poorly recorded as well) skirt around telling us what we need to know to make sense of the film, without ever doing so. The incessant barrage of extreme close-ups throw us up against the cast's faces, but everyone is speaking bilge and including Gazzara and Seymour Cassel, both actors no one is acting of some talent who are totally wasted. The rationale of Cassavettes approach is that it brings out "natural acting," in a way, it's poetic justice that all the performances in Bookie are horrid. — Any technique of creation in any medium is, of course, a means to an end: a tool to be used to create. In Bookie, CassavetteiLtechnique is used solely for its own sake, without achieving its purposeVa tragedy figure, of penny wisdom and pound foolishness. If Bookies, like be is inscrutable, the ultimate reason is because there is seen The film is Prodigal Sun showing at the Kensington Friday, 30 April and Valu 5 Theatres 1976 The Spectrum .

Prodigal Sun • �Inserts': degenerate dignity h by Amira Lapidot Spectrum Arts STaff Inserts is described as "a degenerate film, with dignity" in the ad, and it's true. Inserts is a film adaptation of the one-act, one-set play by John Byrum, who also produced the movie. It stars Richard Dreyfuss as the magnificent film producer of the 1930's, the Boy Wonder. But, unfortunately, he is no longer a boy, although he remains at least from John Byrum's point of view, quite a wonder when it comes to ingenuity in the field of creative film-making. At this stage of the Boy Wonder's life, he has succumbed to staying at home, dressed in a lounging robe and slacks, drinking Martell cognac, and making porno flicks. Although Inserts is rated "X," it is by no means lewd, lascivious, or vile; it is a "day in the life of ." story portraying the making . of silent, black and white, hard-core pornography. But more than showing the mere making of the violently lustful films. Inserts portrays the man behind them the despair in his certain knowledge that he is no longer the wonder he was as a boy, and that he had reached fame too soon and cannot keep up with it. Above all, he has no interest in the razzle-dazzle plasticity of Hollywood. The Boy Wonder realizes that both his backers and his audience have ceased to view actors as human beings, with feelings, emotions or talent; they see them as pieces of meat. Using his creative talent in attempting innovations, he takes this to extremes . — by giving his audience body and between-the-legs shots instead of faces. Inserts is not maudlin or melodramatic; on the contrary, every occurrence is taken in stride by the characters even the death of Dreyfuss' star actress from an overdose of heroin before the completion of the film. All the actors and actresses perform excellently. All but Dreyfuss have stereotypical roles: Harlene is the horny heroin hooker; Rex the Wonderdog is a spineless quiff, who thinks more of himself than his probable IQ merits; Big Mac is your all-too-shallow meat patty; and last, though certainly not least, is Miss Cathy Cake, a cute college grad with pancake breasts, who is willing and eager to give up anything and everything to become a celluloid heroine. Insertts can be understood on at least three levels. First, and most obvious, it is a story about how a once-great man makes porno films. Second, it shows how a certain man makes a specific film and why it comes to the audience in that particular form. Third, it is the story of the man himself: what forces affected him and, to some extent, how his mind works. The film is psychologically (not emotionally) depressing; it doesn't leave us crying but it definitely leaves us thinking. The audience gets a glimpse of a man who sees himself as a has-been, and is now in abysmal hopelessness; he cannot understand why people continue to seek him out. But it ends on an upbeat, showing a glimmer of hope in the distance. Inserts is well worth one's time and money. It's playing at the Evans Theatre. — Harriman Theatre Shakespeare a la Grigsby does okay by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Arts Staff Lov€'s Labour's Lost, presented at Harriman Studio last weekend and also scheduled for tonight through Sunday, was a must-see not only because it is the only Shakespearean play to be staged in Harriman in the past ten years, but because of the publicity posters in which the director's name stands out as prominently as that of immortal author William Shakespeare. Did Clyde Grigsby plan to make innovations to render this production as Grigsby-esque as it is Shakespearean? We knew in advance that Gribsby had made a change in the time period. The action was to take place in the early 1900's, between the Victorian age and World War I. We also know that the cast list included some colorful performers of note. This precluded its being just another Shakespearean play in the cliche "over-enunciation, grand gesture, huge facial expression" mold. The stage and set caught my attention as soon as I walked in. The stage slopes downward and the color scheme is a bright green and soft white. The attractive garden setting features ivy climbing up white latticed porches, creating a fresh spring feeling that almost made me believe that it was spring despite the near-freezing temperatures in the studio Sunday night. Spring songs Love's Labour's Lost, presented by the SUNYAB Department of Theatre in conjunction with the Center for Theatre Research, features the music of Ray Leslee, a fellow in the Department. His music's light texture adds to the springtime feeling. The comedy begins with Ferdinand, the King of Navarre (Kneland Stickles) and his three lords, Longaville, Dumaine, and Berowne (Lawrence Turner, Barry S. Cohen, and John B. Emmert), agreeing to spend three years in earnest study abstaining from the company of women and fasting. However, King Ferdinand has a commitment to lodge the Princess of France (Marcia Wiesenfeld) and her three ladies, Maria, Katherine, and Rosaline (Phyllis Seaman, Sally Bagot, and Theresa DePaolo.) Of course, it isn't long before they discover each other writing love letters to the maidens and agree that the oath should be broken. The ensuing courtship attempts provide the bulk of the remaining action. Turner and Cohen, who were outstanding in The Alley Between Our Two Houses, have flashes of brilliance but John B. Emmert comes through with an outstanding characterization of the witty Lord Berowne. His verbal pacing is excellent and does not seem to say one extraneous word. The threesome are perfectly cast as the young student types, with Stickles as the equally youthful professor. % Secrets of success In the same manner, Marcia Wiesenfeld has a motherly dominance over her three ladies. Moreover, she puts a certain depth in her character that makes her a person we would like to see and know more of. She seems always to have some secret thought, making her much more of a person than Shakespeare intended. Closeness with all of the characters was effected by Grigsby's switch of the time period to one in which the fashions were closer to our own. Thus we could put ourselves into the action more easily than with a more distant time period. There is a lower-class love affair in the play between Don Adriano de Armado, a Spanish Army officer (Ted Kryczko), and Jacquenetta, a common wench (Lorelle D. Chizen). Another comic highlight of the production was John Simonetti as Costard, a Chaplinesque vagabond kicked from scene to scene causing confusion whenever he appears. The costumes, prehaps the most lavish of any University play so far, are a huge asset. The lords and ladies wear bright pastels which combine with the set and colorful lighting to create an appealing picture which can be seen again at'Harriman Theatre STudio from April 29 to May 2.

After the move to have producer George Martin (of Beatle fame) do the arranging, producing and conducting of their albums, their sound transformed into what might best be called "Schmaltz Pop." Their first three albums had been almost entirely done with acoustic guitars and an occasional piano. Beginning with Holiday, the first Martin production, the guitars and pianos were heavily accompanied by an orchestra. It's been that way ever since. I didn't mind the change that much, since their production needed a bit of a jolt, but Hideaway is a good example of how this new production can go too far. The songs are catchy as usual, the lyrics are predictable but sometimes it sounds like America is being backed by either the N.Y. Philharmonic or even worse.

Sure, they always had a cult following among heavy metal fans, but the first four albums, which were viewed so poorly by critics everywhere, had a certain flair which still sets them head and shoulders above any of the Bad Companies, ZZ Tops or B.T.O.'s which are so popular these days. The rock press laughed long and hard at the millions who bought their records, obstinately refusing to listen to the tasteful (yes, I said tasteful) amalgam of instrumental pyrotechnics and deftly produced acoustic interludes of which the well-received "Stairway to Heaven" is only one example. As fate would have it, "Stairway" was a huge success, Zeppelin became respectable. Page and Plant dropped their veil of secrecy and started acting like other rock stars, and before long they were setting attendance records in football stadiums throughout the globe. Presence, their seventh album, is a reversion into raunch; a gratingly authentic example it sounds better from a of rock-festival music quarter of a mile away. Even with popular taste as bad as it is, were Zeppelin a new band and this their debut album, they would probably have trouble competing with the dozens of bands that have copied their earlier style. (Unless; of course, they came onstage dressed in glitter Gestapo uniforms or something a good gimmick still makes the turnstiles spin.) But then again, if the Zep hadn't been around in the first place, we might not have as many Blue Oyster Cults and R.E.O. Speedwagons bidding for our mastoid bones today I disagree. of the seven cuts, Getting back to Presence five of them sound exactly alike; guitar-bass-drum shuffle riffs similar to "Out on the Tiles" (from Zeppelin III), but lacking that song's drive. The remaining two songs are distinguished only by their divergence from this pattern. "Achilles Last Stand," the album's opener, is a long power chord saga highlighted by a Mahavishnu-esque guitar intro and some dissonant (read sour) vocal work. The last cut on side two, "Tea for One" is (ahh yess ...) a slow blues, with a minor-key guitar solo which almost gets off the ground, but not quite. .. . — — ... - Robert Plant's once amazing voice, which has been going for a long time, is now completely gone doubtless too much screaming of "B-b-b-baby" and "N-n-n-na-na-na-yeah," which is about all he docs on this album.

On Presence, he has completely foresaken keyboards, but sounds as if he could stand a little retraining on the bass. He does nothing but follow Page's riffs note-for note in agonizing unison, and the overall texture, missing both overdubbed guitars and keyboards, is frightfully thin. And then there's John Bonham the Jack Benny of the drum kit, whose consistently simplistic drumming never really bothered me when the rest of the band was more active. With their new bare-bones Bonham's dinosaurean sound, thumpa-thumpa-bang-crash (to the tune of an he has incessant high-hat) sounds ridiculous learned nothing in the last eight years, except perhaps how to pillage hotel rooms.

The Stones are off and rolling. It's been quite a while since these satanic jesters have come up with a platter of polyvinyl that approached their early and much vaunted period of violent and dark rock 'n roll rage. The Stones, of that time, intuitively lived out the perverted and snarled nightmares and dangerous visions of teenagers drowning in a pimpled vortex of hormonal overload. Their music communicated a hypnotic randiness clothed in nihilistic abandon and delivered straight from the pulsing pelvis; rebels with no inkling of a cause. The perfect band for the tempestuous and turbulent times which erupted from the sleepy brow of the fifties and exploded into the teenage cataclysm of the sixties. But times change and time has its way with all of us. The vision of the adolescent is slowly shed for a catholic getsalt. The Stones haven't aged gracefully. Black and Blue is further proof that they will never again rule rock with the mystical power of divine right. Altamont is gone and so are the days of the Stones achieving an everlasting satisfaction. Black and Blue is essentially.what the title implies: a collection of derivative black music and blues. There's reggae, disco, funk, and the expected quota of guitar sleaze churned out by Keith, Woody and friends. Most of the songs are about a year ol; and almost all of them were recorded in Munich. Could this be the Stones' European album? The reggae influence of "Cherry Oh Baby" is a far cry from the palatial beef halls of Munich. The attempt at reggae is sloppy and sophomoric, lacking the slickness and tightness that should have characterized it. Even Keith's Bob Marley t-shirt can't salvage this one. dagger isn't above having a little bit of fun with the tune. On the tag Mick simulates male and female coital coos driving home reggae's major claim to fame. "Hot Stuff," the Stones disco entry, boasts a nice guitar line by Harvey Mandel as dagger pouts inane lyrics with the delivery of a mad hatter. Mick, showing off his London School of Economics background, tosses in a comment about New York, "Ail the people in New York City, I know you're going broke but I know you're tough." The fault with the Stones' stylizations is they never achieve their own identity and as a result remain merely genre pieces. Mick and the boys throw a new wrinkle into the proceedings. That wrinkle, hard as it is to believe, is attempts at harmony. Billy Preston and dagger turn in a competent vocal performance on "Melody" and even "Fool to Cry" is brought off with an uncharacteristically lilting touch. But too often Mick sings as if he were constipated or gargling with Ajax. The album's opus is the seven minute "Memory Motel." Mick and Keith trade off vocal chores as if they unravel a sentimental saga of a lost love reminiscent of a Ruby Tuesday type. "Memory Motel" makes the major mistake of believing sheer repetition can somehow be transformed into dynamic expansion and power. An earlier Stones' song that shares similarities with "Memory Motel," "Moonlight Mile," succeeded in part because it side-stepped repetition and dagger rendered a haunting vocal that perfectly complemented Paul Buckmaster's stirring string arrangement. It would be easy to, but inaccurate, to dismiss Black and Blue out of hand. The Stones, above all else, are professional. The album is listenable and competent but it just isn't compelling enough to surmount its inherent mediocrity. The Stones aren’t any longer pioneers at the forefront of rock. Black and Blue isn't as much a testimony to the Stones' greatness as it is to their durability and longevity. -Kristofer Farkas . / tell you that "you only go around once in life, so it's about time you add some spice" and "all work and The disco phenomenon is in full swing and no play makes a very dull day."

In this song, they The Tramp* Where the Happy People Gq (Atlantic Records) Foot's Gold (Arista) The current Orange County gang in Los Angeles has produced still another Fender telecaster and pedal steel countrified rock band. Dan Fogetberg's back up band has stepped into the spotlight for an album of their own. Fool's Gold has the classic signs for an exciting harmonizing group; Fogelberg and three members shared writing chores, and Souther, Hillman, Furay drummer Ron Grind assumed trap chores. Walsh and producing cohorts John Stronach and Glyn Johns joined to polish the sound of this former stage-only aggregation. Even Johns' old pupil, Eagle Glenn Frey, tried his first hand on the boards. The result has me in a dilemma: I want to like this band with the dynamic stage performance that I have had the pleasure to witness three times, and a production so crisp and sharp you could split hairs with it, and yet, I question if there is any truly original material on this release. Of course, there are some unique cuts, but there has to be something a little more outstanding about their performance. Tom Kelly, the group's bassist, has more than proven himself in the writing department. Doug Livingston, the pedal steel man of the band, has added some nice musical flair. However, guitarist Denny Henson was not the best addition to the band. "Balloon Dick" Richard Bowden would have been a better choice instrumentally, and the group members could surely have handled the vocals alone. The album opens with "Coming Out of Hiding." It's a strong cut, one of the most lively on the album. Of course, Welsh slipped in his electric guitar. There are other cuts with guest musicians, and it's unfortunate that these had to'be the best on the album. The best puts should belong exclusively to the band members. For instance, Don Felder plays on "Rain, Oh Rain," the most outstanding acoustic cut on the album. "Choices" was written with and very heavily influenced by Fogelberg. "Love Me Through and Through" would have been on a Fogelberg album if the lead vocals weren't done by Henson. "One by One" is a nice ballad, but certainly no "Kind Woman," the proverbial originator of the style. It is unusual that the best cut on the album is an exclusive of the band. "I Will Run" complete with a country four part a capella opening, is a class picked number, like "Midnight Flyer." Frey handles the production on this number, and it is as immaculate as on the other two songs he is responsible for. Joe Walsh and Stronach are both experienced boardmen, and Glyn Johns is probably the best British producer. So where is my complaint with this band? Too many people want to step out of the shadow of their lead singer. Unfortunately, most are not as well equipped as the Eagles were when they left Linda Ronstadt, or as Poco was when the Springfield disbanded. They are all outstanding stage and studio musicians, but cannot seem to make it alone. Remember, even Souther, Hillman and Furay was made up of three tremendous talents and something still went wrong. With a few more changes and additions Fool's Gold could be the next Poco. I hope so their stage act indicates an untapped reservoir of talent that could prove most productive. -Barbara Komansky — — YOUR CHILDHOOD AND ADOLESCENCE HAVE PASSED You are as tall as you will ever be, but psychological growth will continue throughout the life span.

All it serves to point up is the notion of the University-as-goldmine. As students, we are a vulnerable lot. We are rooted, both physically and mentally, to the University and its immediate environs. For those who live in the dorms, there is the added factor of food, which if not purchased through Food Service, will more than likely have been bought within a few blocks of the campus. The books that we want almost invariably come from one of two sources and even our recreation, more often than not, will take place on university grounds. In a word, we are dependent. We are not, as some would have us believe, “out on our own.” Csywe cfigrgqd that the ReconJCq-op as, using his tax dollars in ruinous competition. People, those tax dollars were just as much ours. In addition, the Co-op is supported by the mandatory student activity fee. If the records were cheaper it was, for the most part, because our money had already paid for them. We were getting no “deal” and the only thing we were fighting for was who would get our money. Basically, there seems to be two methods employed to divest the student of his money. The mos common is characterized by an attempt to hide the source of the money. Foock Service is a prime example. At the beginning, or sometimes months before the beginning of each term, we pay a large sura of money to FSA to insure that we will receive our meals on a somewhat regular schedule. Just because we do not pay separately for each meal, and just because we on a contract, does not mean that we have to put up with poor quality. The only reason for granting a monopoly to any organization on campus should be in order to provide cheaper and better service. There should be no profit taken anywhere along the line. The Food Service monopoly, being ubiquitous, even effects those who would have a sub or a slice of pizza. If Food Service buys sauce, cheese and cold cuts by the truckload and, in our name, why shouldn’t we be entitled to the savings? And, while we are eating our pizza, should we decide to use one of the pin-ball machines, we will pay a quarter for the privilege of playing two games. > There is no reason for this. With over 3000 students at EUicott alone, surely we could have our own machines with a token charge of a nickel to pay for maintenance. I do not propose this as “the solution” but rather as a motivation for thought. The other method of separating student from My roommate, being a chem major, was required to go out and purchase one “HGS Molecular Model Kit” which upon superficial inspection, resembled a tinkertoy set, and a small one . at that. The unfortunate part was that this “tinkertoy set” cost him almost $8. I had a similarly shocking experience when I went to purchase two paperback French books, only to find that together they came to almost $ 19. Again, why does this have to beWhat is the purpose of having a Bookstore in Norton if it is going to stock the same books as Buffalo Text and, at essentially the same price?More importantly, why isn’t anyone else asking these questions? Another sore spot is the Ellicott Complex. To some people, it seems as if the outside of the buddings, their locations and the roads that connect them, took precedence over the inside of the buddings. It should not come as a revelation to the person who specified brick walk-ways that perhaps students would have preferred something more basic, such as a greater number of bathrooms. If one accepts the fact that we are here for an education then an appropriate question might be just how many teachers could be hired for $71 million. What it all comes down to is change. When something doesn’t work, we either change it or get rid of it. What we cannot let out of our sight is the3 fact that the sole purpose of this, or any, University is to educate us. Our job is to make sure that this is accomplished, both inside the classroom and out. When we find that the very institution with which we have entrusted our education has turned around and started to take advantage of us, we must ascertain what steps are to be taken. One obvious thing is that we are going to get into trouble if we let someone whose business is based upon profit supply us. To this end, anything that can feasibly be run by students, should be. That includes bookstores, grocery stores, food service and snack bars. If it turns out that by buying a hundred gallons of tomato sauce, it is possible to make a pizza that costs a buck and a half, let’s sell it for a buck and a half. Should we find that the profit margins on the books and the food were paying the rent on the J. Ellicott complex, let’s begin to as who authorized the building of a campus so outlandish in price as to require that students pay for it everytime we drop a quarter and a nickel into the Coke machine. This is our school. There is no sense in being intimidated by anyone connected with it if we realize that the only reason he is there is because we arc. Keith Friedlander Diagrammatical To the Editor. An announcement by, I presume, this University’s administration in a recent The Spectrum that a number of “faculty proclaimed would occur this fall. nonreappointments’’ Non-reappointments? Whatever happened to “firings” or “dismissals? If Braulio Baeza’s horse tost the race, would he go home and tell his wife that he diswonif I skip a class, does that mean that I nonattended? If I flunked out, would I have committed academic credit discompletion?Would 1 disgraduate? Please, whoever’s responsible for concocting words (nonwords) like “nonreappointment" stop it!! There are plenty of perfectly functional words in English already. Compounding prefix upon prefix, or creating new combinations, too often seems like an unnecessary complication of the language. It only tends to obscure. That is not only unaesthetic, it’s dangerous. Please, you’re getting too dyslogical. De-proliferate. Choreography for naught To the Editor. We are writing to express our anger concerning the management of dance repertory class headed by Joan Verdun. The object of this class was originally to put on a student-run dance concert, previewing the student’s own works. We-found out the hard way that this was not so. Firstly, two of the dance pieces in the concert are being performed solely by the dance faculty, unfairly forcing students to compete performance-wise with their teachers. Also, the one piece Ms. Verdun choreographed for the students monopolized the entire four hours a week alotted to the repertory class for. the whole semester. This forced the dancers and student choreographers, ourselves included, to do all the choreography, teaching and rehearsing on our own time. We worked hard for four months, four hours daily to choreograph and teach our piece, plus laying out the money for costume material, and tapes and records for the soundtrack, for which we have never been reimbursed. No guidance was given to us by the head of the dance repertory class, until the last three weeks and we hesitate calling that guidance. Ms. Verdun saw our entire piece three times. The first two times, she gave us sporadic corrections, all of which we implemented. The final time, the week before the concert, Ms. Verdun decided that our piece would have to be cut in half, because suddenly she realized it was too long (12 minutes). We found this very unfair because of the magnitude of such change would require rechoreographing and reteaching the piece which would not have allowed enough time to rehearse the revised piece to performance level. We also felt that cutting our piece would effectively destroy its content and meaning. Our piece concerns the struggles of the working class. In the first half, where different work our dancers portray movements to a soundtrack we made, Ms. Verdun was greatly amused, contrary to our feeling that working class struggles are not “amusing.” She subsequently told us to cut the first half out because it was her feeling as an “experienced” choreographer that the audience would laugh at our portrayal of the working class. At our refusal to cut the piece in half, Ms. Verdun dropped our piece from the concert, and expelled us from the dance repertory class. We feel that her behavior throughout the semester was unprofessional and we would like to warn students who have considered taking dance repertory to think twice before committing themselves to a class that can only lead to frustration and aggravation.

Trucks, so big they make the American variety look like wheelbarrows, are rumbling from Iran to Jordan, but not without some very strange problems. Size is one problem. One company operates a fleet of 400 container trucks, each having a capacity of 23 tons. Another owns six gigantic units which run on 264 wheels, carrying 860 tons each on its 12 foot wide, 335 foot long trailers. Four tractors power this behemoth and the drivers communicate by radio so they can brake simultaneously. The roads also cause problems for the inexperienced drivers. Rigs often overturn on mountain passes and one driver recently had to drive 10 miles in reverse when he inadvertantly took a wrong turn on a dead end road. Another driver, cruising easily through Turkey, accidently turned a young child into a grease spot after the youngster darted in front of his semi. The driver- stopped and an angry crowd promptly seized him and lopped off his head. - room and nine Italian tiled bathrooms, as well as nine fireplaces. — Cleaning Up the World’s Tallest Junk Heap Nick Langtoii and five of his buddies from Evergreen College in Olympia, Washington are getting high on junk. 29,028 feet high to be exact, and it’s mostly work and no fun. The six are cleaning up Mt. Everest, which has been turned into “the highest junkyard in the world” by sloppy mountaineers. “You can hardly take a step up hefe without encountering garbage,” complains Langton, looking out from his 18,000 base camp where he and his friends have already disposed of 3,000 pounds of trash. Several tons of trash remain to be cleared, according to the Evergreen Six. “This is one of man’s great injustices to nature,” Langton says. Gone, but not Forgotten Summerorientation program is planned An estimated 1800 students are expected to participate in ten two and one half day orientation conferences that will run from June 30 through August 6. Orientation will be geared primarily towards incoming freshmen although there will be a special program for transfer students. Orientation Director John Buerk said that while orientation will be basically unchanged, “more emphasis will be placed on students in the health and health related fields, natural sciences, mathematics and' engineering. They will be in direct contact with faculty representing those areas.” Unlike other programs ihit by budget cutbacks. Summer Orientation, which pays for itself through the orientation fee charged to each student who attends, faces no financial worries. Guerk said this year’s budget will be $60,000, none of which comes fyom the _ Although the Drug Abuse Law Enforcement Agency has been disbanded, it hasn’t been forgotten. At least not by John Meiners of Edwardsville, 111. Three years ago Meiners was arrested by Drug Abuse agents, even though they didn’t have warrants for the raid on his house or for his arrest. Officers later held him for 77 hours without charge. Meiners also claimed that some of his property was damaged or stolen during the raid. On April 16, Meindrs was ordered by an Illinois court to pay each of the eight raiding officers $15,000. Meiners, they said, libeled them in a press conference at which he discussed the raid. Spaced out Profs find New Frontier How do you deal with extraterrestrial travelers? Calmly, according to a Florida sociologist. Dr. Richard Yinger has given students at Palm Beach Junior College this and other advice during the course he teaches in the study of the social forms of life on other planets. Remember not to panic, Yinger claims, and the space beings may stick around to teach us a thing or two. There’s a lot to learn, since beings that could travel to earth are also likely to have moved beyond wars and violence, he says. Space visitors would also be likely to have developed a high degree of technological expertise, the sociologist says, enabling them “to survive the tremendous energy systems they would need to move about in space.” Yinger isn’t alone in exploring how earthlings will relate to space travelers. A full credit course at Northwestern University offers students the chance to study how to identify strange discs in the sky, evaluate alleged human contact with space travelers, and sight space-craft in daylight. The Northwestern coursy is taught by Dr. J. Hynek, an astronomy professor and former consultant to the Air Force’s official UFO study. — University budget. Included on the orientation staff will be ten undergraduate student aides who will live in the dormitories with the freshmen and help them with any problems or questions they might have. Each aide receives seven weeks of training in academics, housing, registration and communications to prepare him/her for the job. In addition to registering for fall courses, the most important aspect of orientation, the daytime program will include workshops for commuters and resident students, and an introduction to the campus libraries, and the Colleges. Planned evening programs include a coffeehouse and square dance. Various student organizations and clubs will set up tables in Norton Hall so that representatives can speak personally to new students. Buerk feels one of the problems facing orientation is designing an acceptable program for transfer students. “Transfer students are very difficult to orient because they consider themselves established college students,” he said. , The Rich Get Richer, the Poor Pay Taxes Not all Americans go info a state of financial shock for six months after tax time.

Rubin Sportt Editor We live in a busy, fast-paced world where news breaks any place, any time. Carter, Jackson, Ford, et al. make news regularly in their bids for the presidency. Hockey violence and the Stanley Cup Playoffs are coming to a head. New shows are opening on Broadway. Fires, crimes, wars, discoveries, and achievements take place every day.

Yet it is not so much the horses or the money or the prestige associated with the Derby that makes it great. In reality, it is the tradition and ceremony which surround the Derby that put it head and shoulders above other big races. The Derby marks the peak of the celebration for the city of Louisville.

Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum The baseball Bulls extended their modest winning streak to three with a doubleheader sweep over the University of Pittsburgh on Wednesday. Buffalo won a tight opener, 4—3, and then crushed the Panthers in the nightcap, 9—1. The twin bill victory lifted Buffalo’s overall record to 11—12. In game number 1 the Bulls jumped on Pittsburgh starter Don Kennedy for three first inning runs. Rightfielder Bob Amico led off with a walk, stole second and scored on Jim Mary’s triple. One out later, Mike Dixon drove Mary home with a single. Dixon’s pinch runner Mike Burg then stole second, went to third on a throwing error by the catcher and scored on John White’s single. Buffalo scored what proved to be the winning run in the fourth. John Mineo walked, went to second on a balk, took third on another error by catcher Don DeStrout and scored on Maico’s single. While the Bulls’ hitters were supplying the offense, Buffalo righthander tossed five innings of shutout ball, giving up only two hits while striking out seven. A few years ago Reidel was considered to be Buffalo’s ace. Injuries, though, got the best of him and for the past two years, Reidel has been a struggling pitcher. However, he has rebounded very well this season and once again has found his way at the top of the Bulls’ pitching staff. His E.R.A. was fourth in the EC AC before Wednesday’s game. Sixth inning woes Pitcher Bill Lasky, a senior, began the sixth inning for Buffalo and got into immediate trouble. He gave up a double, a walk and a single before giving way to reliever Rick Kobel with a two ball two strike count on the hitter. Kobel completed the strikeout but then got the Bulls into deeper trouble by issuing a walk and a single.. He was saved when rightfielder Bob Amico grabbed the base hit and fired the ball home. Amico’s throw was slightly off the mark so catcher Mike Dixon went up the first base line to take the throw and then made a spectacular head first drive at the plate to nab the Panthers’ Nania as he slid home.

Dean to the rescue It turned out to be the play of the game because Pittsburgh scored again in the seventh and final inning. With one out and a man on first, DeStout hit a tremendous triple to centerfield scoring one run and putting the tying run on third. Mike Dean, generally a starter, relieved Kobe! and did an excellent job of putting out the fire. He induced the two Panther hitters he faced to slap harmless ground balls to third and second, both of which were handled cleanly for the final outs of the game. The nightcap was a laugher for both the Bulls and the sparse crowd that attended the game at Peelle Field. Pittsburgh picked up its only run in the seventh off reliever John Buszka, but the game had already been decided. The Bulls scored singleton runs in the third and fourth innings, the second run coming on John Kidd’s home run to left field. Buffalo then exploded for seven runs in the fifth. In that outburst, Mike Dixon drove in a run with a single to give him a share of the University seasonal RBI record.

Lock port - As the year draws to a close, I feel it is time to look back at the Sports Department of The Spectrum during 1975-76. We weren’t bad at all. We expanded intramural coverage, and ran considerably more commentary than has been published in the past. We made up with the Gark Hall hierarchy without losing face. Sports Quiz made its debut, and the Wizard of Odds had his best and most controversial season in history. Of course, not all our plans were successful. The picture of John Buszka as Athlete of the Week a few weeks ago strangely resembled Marc Scarcello. Our interview series flopped. I’m sure there were other flaws, but they have mysteriously seemed to skip my mind just now. Unfortunately, despite our efforts, there were some stories which slipped by, and we regret that we didn’t pass them on. For instance, during intersession, maintenance forgot to feed the Ketterpillar (Bubble). This made it very mad, and in retaliation, it picked itself up and took a bite out of Ellicott. Fortunately, indigestion set in and the Ketterpillar has remained lethargic since. We failed to acknowledge perhaps the most impressive athletic achievement of the year that Bert Black set a record by attending 37 meetings in a single 24 hour period. Another biggie we muffed was the big Hayes Hall University squirrel demonstration last fall. To be an official University squirrel, the animal must be stamped “approved” by an authorized member of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee. Upon official approval, the squirrel is confined to collecting nuts only on SUNY Buffalo campuses. The squirrel is free to ride the buses between campuses, and has authority to spend the winter months in either Parker basement or Suite 109 Lehman. Last fall, 30 University squirrels streaked across the front lawn of Hayes, busted down the doors, mooned the offices of Drs. Ketter and Somit, and continued out the back and up the trees behind Hayes. They were protesting the “Do Not Feed the Squirrels” signs on campus. Once in the trees they chanted in unison, “We like nuts, but in your case we’ll make an exception.” I also wish to acknowledge the vast improvement in a 1976 intramural softball entry, namely Ziggy Stardust. Only 1-1 last year, Ziggy, as it is affectionately known, has improved to a 7-2 record overall including a perfect 2-0 mark in league play. Ziggy has been sparked by the clutch hitting of Spectrum Staff Writer John Reiss, who despite being a dead pull hitter, has had many key hits this season. The coaching of yours truly has also been invaluable. Aggressive coaching on the lines at third has led to key runs in many games this year for Ziggy. But seriously, this is my last stand. Paige Miller, my extremely competent assistant will take over sports next fall. He, along with a fine staff, will undoubtedly improve and expand an already respectible Sports Department. I believe that The Spectrum sports has had a rewarding year, but there’s an easy way to tell for sure. If this column or any sports story in The Spectrum this past year has affected you, then the year has been a success. If we’ve made you laugh, or if we’ve made you angry, or interested, or cynical, or aware, then we’ve done our job because that is what this column and this newspaper are all about.

However, greater number of interested students has forced the" school to raise its standards. What once was a minimal cumulative grade point of 2.0 requirement average became a 2.5 in 1975 and 2.8 this year. this fall. ”1 based my future on the requirements existing when I entered college. Now, in two years, I’m on the borderline. I have a 2.7S and if I don’t get in. I’ve wasted all this time.” Licata recognizes the steady flow of students into the management field. “There seems to be an influx of students from other departments into the Management Department,” he said. “Where do all the pre-meds go that can’t cut it? They fill up the Management Department!” Sanford Lottor, assistant dean of the School of Management, said, “Many students feel it will be easier to get a job if he specializes in a field. The School offers this Management of specialization." there year, Last were approximately 1200 applicants to the undergraduate department. Of these, 600 were accepted and 450 enrolled. This year, however, Down the tirain This rise would have been more if not for in the change admissions majors. With a relatively healthy job market for people who hold degrees in management, more and more students here are seeking entrance into the School of Management. Class sizes have increased over the past few years in most of the prerequisite courses and competition for management has been steadily degrees increasing. The School of Management (formerly the School of Business Administration) once had easy entrance relatively *• worries some Dismissal of faculty protested by AAUP by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Opposition to the cutbacks scheduled for the State University system, previously generated only in New York,-has now come from a national source. The American Association of University Professors (AAUP), based in Washington, D.C., sent a memorandum to the Chancellor of the. State University of New York, Ernest L. Boyer, protesting the lack of adequate notice to faculty members whose positions are being terminated, and urging that corrective action be taken. Associate General Secretary of the AAUP, Jordan E. Kurland, who authored the communication to Boyer, cited the Association’s 1940 “Statement of Principles on Academic Freedom and Tenure,” which held that faculty members with two or more years of service should receive at least 12 months notice of non-retention. Kurland’s letter stated, in part, “A large and increasing number of individual faculty members at colleges and universities that comprise the State University of New York have been registering complaints with the American Association of University Professors after they were informed by administrative officers that their positions were being terminated.” These complaints, said Kurland, came from both tenured and non-tenured but multi-year faculty, whose administrations wished to break their contracts before they had^xpired. requirement) but only 549 were accepted. “We’re hoping that only 350 of these will enroll,” said Judith Dingeldey, Director of Undergraduate Programs for the School of Management. Dingeldey said the decrease from last year was a result of budget cuts and the limited number of instructors. Too much Lottor said too many students enrolled last year. “It’s important to the School to offer the highest quality program we possibly can,” he said. “In order to do this we had to cut back on the number of students accepted.” He said that last year, the Department had one of the largest faculty/student ratios in the University, which put the school of its danger in accreditation by the Americair Assembly of Collegeate Schools of Business. Another problem arises for students who are accepted by the school and then wish to go on to accounting. “Up until this fall, anyone could get into accounting,’!, said Loiter. “Starting this fall, we are limiting number of accounting the students because of limited resources. We just can’t house all who want the students accounting.” The School offers a multitude of degree options, including combined graduate degrees and and combined graduate undergraduate degrees.

The cause of the blaze is as yet unknown, although fireman and University personnel have hypothesized that faulty electrical equipment could be responsible. Educational Communications Director Gerald O'Grady estimated that $344,000 in audio-visual and tv equipment. was either badly damaged or destroyed along the with $19,S00Q in materials and supplies, such as Wdeo tapes. It is believed that Foster Hall sustained an additional $100,000 or more in structural damage due to heavy smoke and intense hety. The wing of Foster that was affected by the fire is presently closed, ifc University officials are anxious to keep weight off the ceiling until the actual extent of the damage is determined. O'Grady does not think any of the equipment was insured. However, there was talk in Hayes Hall Monday of submitting an emergency request for funds in the Supplemental Budget to replace some of the important production and playback equipment. O'Grady said $50,000 will be needed to reestablish minimal operating ability. In any case, he cannot foresee restoring a production studio comparable to the one that was destroyed for at least a year. - - - • - - — - - - - - Clubs 38 Academic Chibs $11,896 12 Hobby Clubs $4,350 11 InternationalClubs $6, 625 6 Special Interest Chibs $6,036 (Debate, Vets, Gay Lib) *Already passed by Assembly — - - - �Summer session Effectiveness discussed Summer Session Registration will not be processed unless your Account is clear in the Office of Student Accounts, Hayes A, Room 1. Office Committee seeks to upgrade faculty teaching quality here Ex-prisoner Sostre will speak in Haas hours are 8:45 a.m.-4 p.m., Monday through Friday. by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor “What makes a good teacher?” was the question of the day last Saturday as a group of University instructors gathered at the Ellicott Complex to discuss a subject that concerns us all, teaching effectiveness. Physics professor Jonathan Reichert heads the Senate Committee on Teaching Faculty Effectiveness, composed of six faculty and one student, which organized the' one-day conference. The day’s discussion centered on what the role of the committee should be over the next few years, and whether or not the teaching effectiveness at this or can be influenced for University needs to be the better. Donald Brown of the Center of ..Research on Learning and Teaching at the University of Michigan also joined in the discussion. - - Reinvent the wheel One professor suggested that the committee could provide a “pool of resources” for instructors interested in improving their teaching. He said teachers often share experiences and teaching methods in informal discussion, but usually each new instructor has to “reinvent the wheel” and learn effective teaching methods on his own, by trial and error. Brown pointed out that teaching effectiveness is often difficult to measure, if not impossible, and university administrations and departments often other publications and stress grants, accomplishments. Several of the participants believe that a person who is known for being an outstanding instructor too often aquires a reputation for being negligent in resefach and publications. Brown agreed that the “reqards to keep you going” for trying to improve your teaching ability are fewer than for the professor who delves into reserach. “Change can happen, but I suspect its a , Cluade Welch noted that two considerations work against a teacher seeking to improve his teaching: shame and guilt. Looking at Student Course And Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) results can be a humbling experience for a teacher, he said. If you thought you were coming across to students one way, you sometimes find you were making quite a different impression. Guilt comes from admitting or fearing that you may not be as knowledgeable in your teaching area as you should be, he said. Three possible methods for improving teaching that came out "of the discussion were watching videotapes of yourself teaching, talking to peers, and talking to students. Can’t fake it Several participants added that an obvious interest and enthusiasm for the subject being taught is imp:>>tint to a teacher’s effectiveness. “Students arc extremely sensitive to fraudulent behavior in the classroom,” one instructor said. If a teacher is feigning interest in the topic and is in reality unenthusiastic about what he is doing, students will spot the insincerity quickly, he said. In the discussion’s afternoon session, Brown expounded on the emotional state of the students. “The process involves human beings in a very crucial of development,” he said. But while the of the “young adults” being taught must be kept in mind, “the class has to be centered around the material,” and not be “course in adjustment.” The students should be presented with material in a way that is not “intellectually or emotionally threatening,” making them “feel stupid” or “unable to deal” with the classroom situation, he said. “Peers are in better shape to deal with [their emotional problems] than you are,” he said. stage maturing process Martin Sostre, a Black-Puerto Rican activist from Buffalo who was recently freed from prison, will be returning here Friday, April 30 fot the first time since his release. Sostre will be speaking in Norton Hall’s Haas Lounge at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 1. The event, sponsored by Student Association Speaker’s Bureau, is free and tickets are not necessary. Sostre has two other speaking engagements in Buffalo during his visit. At 7 p.m. on April 30, Sostre will speak at the Lincoln Memorial Church, at Main Street and Mastcn Avenue, followed by a cultural program of poetry and dance. He will also appear at the Porter library, Porter and Niagara Streets, on Sunday, May 2, at 3 p.m., followed by a program of poetry and music. Sostre first attained prominence within the Buffalo community when he opened the Afro-Asian Bookstore on Jefferson Avenue, which sold anti-war literature, revolutionary works, and books on black history. In 1967 the East Side community erupted in disorders, and local officials blamed Sostre and his bookstore for much Of what had happened. Jail house lawyer Sostre was arrested shortly afterward for allegedly selling heroin to a police undercover agent in the bookstore. He was convicted and sentenced to up to 41 years in prison. The informer, who was the chief prosecution witness, admitted in 1973 that he had lied about the heroin sale Once in prison, Sistre gained a national reputation as a “jailhousc lawyer." In Sostre vs. Rockefeller, the court found that Sostre had unfairly been placed in solitary confinement, and awarded him damages from the state. The court also ruled that certain procedures must be carried out before a prisoner can be placed in solitary, and that he has certain rights while there. In Sostre vs. Otis, the court again ruled in Sostre’s favor, in this case restricting censorship of prisoners’ reading materials. Sostre was released from prison in February after being pardoned Carey in December. His release had been sought by a Governor by number of individuals and groups including Amnesty International. Sostre is currently working in the office of Assemblywoman Marie Runyon of New York City, dealing mostly with tenants’ problems. He has announced plans to reopen his bookstore in Buffalo, but there is no firm timetable for this yet. Groups co-sponsoring Sostre’s visit to Buffalo include the Buffalo Call Committee, the Buffalo Workers Committee, the Puerto Rican Coalition, the Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson, and the Committee for Non-Intervention in Chile.

RESENTS: April 1976 Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 28 . . �Off and running for the best off-campus houses by Jmy Rosoff Spectrum Staff Writer now The off-campus housing market is not its busiest in competivite stage nearly as crowded as it seems. There are currently about 2 or 3 thousand' off campus homes available to about 4 or 5 thousand students who look for a (dace to live each year, according to estimates by Legal Aid Clinic staff member Paul Sharratt. The clinic’s off-campus Housing Office conducted a telephone survey earlier this semester of students already living off-campus. A computer bank with information on approximately 600 apartments has been compiled. Sharratt said roughly 120 apartments already rented have been withdrawn from the computer’s data bank. The bulletin board located in the Off-Campus Housing Office on the third floor of Norton Hall is reported to be responsible for appro ximatly 100 successful rentings. Richman said many students decide not to return to residence halls because dorm life can be psychologically wearing, and because there is no sense of community. - - On the other hand, the most often cited drawbacks to living off-campus were inconvenience and isolation. Sharratt did not believe the recent increase in dorm rents would prompt landlords to increase their rents. But Cliff Wilson, Assistant Director of Housing, said that dorm rent increases would lead to an increase in off-campus rates. Moving off Many universities find themselves in the midst of on-campus housing shortages as part of a general student return to the dorms. But the situation here seems to be different. It is almost an unwritten law here that seniors not live on campus. Even great numbers of sophomores and juniors also make the move. Wilson simply attributed this phenomena to the “normal maturation” of students. The students that do move off “are ready for the responsibilities of off-campus life,” according to Wilson. They have many friends and have used the residence halls to make these contacts. Sharratt, conversely, sees a trend here toward people staying on campus rather than leaving, but added, “If dorm rates go up, who knows what will ahppen.” The Legal Aid Clinic’s major dealings with students concern* student-landlord problems. Richman indicated that, on the whole, relationships between tenant and landlord are good. He mentioned a letter from a landlord to the Clinic which expressed deep concern for students searching for off-campus housing. Richman believes the ideal way to control off-campus rents and conditions would be to establish a tenants union. He said an unsuccessful attempt to organize a tenants union was made two years ago by the Student Association. Wilson sees the University’s move to Amherst as a major problem because there are very few houses around Amherst that would be within the financial range of students.

Luce was one of the initial key people against the Vietnam War. He is currently head of the Assemblywoman International Amnesty Board. The seminar is co-sponsored with the Community Action Corps. The final event of the year, and the one that Cohen is most proud of, is a special salute to the Bicentennial, which will consist of a series of lectures on the Revolutionary Period by visiting scholars. A meaningful bicentennial Cohen labeled this series an “alternative to all the Bicentennial schlock.” He said that the Administration had not really initiated any serious program dedicated to the Bicentennial, and insisted that therefore, “students would have to take it upon to the make themselves Bicentennial meaningful.” The program will consist of four eminent scholars offering their perceptions of the Revolution. Invitations were sent to most of the high schools within the Buffalo community, because the Committee felt that the lectures would provide a history not usually offered in the high schools. Cohen conceded that he was taking a chance by offering this program, due to the general the unreceptiveness to Bicentennial, yet insisted that the program was worth the risk. “Just because businessmen are doing the wrong things in regard to the Bicentennial (for example, reel, white and blue toilet paper), why should we not attempt to do what we feel is right?” Away from escapism Cohen’s program this year has differed conspicuously from speakers’ programs in the past, lie has concentrated his focus on and politicians journalists primarily, thus avoiding the Lois Lane type of lectures that didn't make their expected quite Wednesday, Robby Cohen nostalgia appeal haunted Cohen’s and ever-after predecessor, Stan Morrow. Cohen claimed that this year tried to do “something different.” “A lot of Speakers’ Bureau he agencies throughout the country are entertainment-minded,” he said. “I’ve been trying to get away from that as much as possible.” His major concern was to get students concerned about social problems and away from escapism. He said that even with a limited budget, his priority was to hire people who had something to say, and then to consider if they would draw. He said that although he realized that not everyone shared his priorities, he felt this year’s program balanced last year’s. He thought speakers his most successful were the Presidential candidates and Ramsey Clark. Although he was satisfied with the program, he still wished that more money had been made available, and that students had responded with more force. “Students should sit down and think out what they’re doing,” he “There should be more ideology moving them.” said. 28 April 1976 .

His wife of several years recently flew the coop and his pet lion died in January, but for companionship, Brown need only dip into his ever-present briefcase to ring up a friend on his portable phone. Some people might consider Ken Brown eccentric. That is open to debate, but one thing is certain Ken Brown is mighty rich. So rich, in fact, that this year alone he will gross a cool $3.5 million to add to his already substantial fortune of $2 million in net assets. Often working 20-hour days and taking few vacations, Ken Brown is certainly different but one of the most different things about him is that he is only 31 years old and rich. “The fear of being a failure is what drives me,” Brown recently told Money magazine. “Money is just a way of keeping score.” Brown, who made most of his fortune by selling motorcycles and organizing cycle shows, is a member of one of America’s biggest growth industries: young millionaires. The number of young Americans under 35 years who put their worth in the seven-figure category jumped from 2,400 in 1962 to 14,500 in 1972 an astounding 500 percent increase according to James Smith, a Pennsylvania State University economist who studies patterns of wealth. Overall, there were 133,400 millionaires in this country in 1972, an increase of 144 percent in the previous decade. — — — - Greedy in outlook Sociologists who study people and the self-made money say young millionaires are mostly white Protestants who jumped from the middle class, loners by disposition and greedy in outlook. “They are the compulsive acquisators with outsized ambitions and capacities to work,” one executive recruiter told Money. “You have to be obsessed with money to make big money,” added a Boston sociologist who also studies wealth. Many of them made their fortunes in FINANCIAL such modem fields as computers, electronics and land development, financial experts say, pointing out that the old way to wealth, such as starting a major heavy industry like John D. Rockefeller or Henry Ford, is all but dead. Playing the stock market is still very much alive, however. While many of the young nouveau riche are self-starters like Brown, the son of a Chicago dentist who also dabbled in used cars, many of them have received their bucks through the lucky but time-honored method of inheritance. The young inheritors heirs and heiresses to fortunes with names like Rockefeller, Levi-Strauss and J.C. Penney appear to be a different breed of fat cat than those like Brown who hail from more humble backgrounds. Their problem is not acquiring money but rather giving it away. — — Giveaways In San Francisco, a young band of 16 heirs has for four years operated the Vanguard Foundation, a philanthropic institution which specializes in doling out funds to groups like the Black Panthers, radical newsletters, radio stations and ethnic self-help organizations in short, programs that are “too controversial or too risky to find funds at most other foundations,” as one Vanguard member puts it. In its first four years, the Vanguard Foundation has given away nearly $200,000. The average grant is only $2,000 and members of organizations who have received the grants say the foundation members question them closely about where the money is going. A Vanguard-type group called the Haymarket Foundation, started two years ago by baking heir George Pillsbury, operates from Cambridge, Mass, and rich kids in Los Angeles and Sante Fe, New Mexico have also expressed interest in forming groups similar to the Vanguard outfit, mainly as a way of dealing with the responsibility and guilt of having all that money in the first place. “I felt very uncomfortable when I first got my money,” Obie Benz, heir to a food company fortune and founder of Vanguard admitted to the Wall Street Journal Benz says rich young people all across the country are devising ways to spread around the wealth and create what they feel is a more equal society. He has been meeting for two years with about 20 other — - wealthy Americans between the ages of 21 and 35 who are also interested in albeit a different brand of philanthropy philanthropy than their parents are used to. “My father’s idea of charity is giving money to the Republicans,” quips one Vanguard member. — Money homing holes The irony of trying to change society with money made in the grand robber baron tradition is not lost on these young, rich philanthropists. “It’s hard to get rid of the money in a way that does more good than harm,” explains a daughter of Laurence Rockefeller. “One of the ways is to subsidize people who are trying to change the system and get rid of people like us.” Getting rid of one of the world’s largest fortunes has been a thorn in the sides of many of the 21 Rockefeller cousins, the great grandchildren of John D. himself. As ' For Elegance OfTradmonals ASSEMBLY WILL MEET TODAY City Stock Exchange on the corner of Broad and Wall Streets where many a potential millionaire makes or breaks his fortune. Peter Collier arid David Horowitz explain in a new book, The Rockefellers, the cousins, who range in ideology from Marxists to spitting images of their fathers, have wrestled with the dubious honor of being a Rockefeller for several years with mixed results. The activists among them have set up their own foundations, initiated “alternative corporations” and argued about social responsibility with their more conservative leaning cousins at great length. Marion, another daughter of Laurance who lives in an old caboose in Northern California on $700 a month, has come up with her own solution. “The fortune should be made extinct, states Marion, who has a $10 million trust fund waiting for her in Uncle David’s Chase Manhattan Bank. “1 hope the social revolution will come soon and take away from us the necessity of having to deal with it.” M t&cAt IN THE HAAS LOUNGE a 4:00 pm * Diamond solitaire set in a circle of ALL CLUB BUDGETS 14kt. white or yellow gold Or Artistry There IS a difference!!!

Professor Raoul Naroll Hayes Hall 239 - — 4 Credit Hours. Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) health, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women in trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of world-wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases these 36 measures. We look carefully at three general systems of cultural dynamics: 1) Social servomechanisms. 2) Natural selection arenas. 3) Accumulation processes. We sum up in two ways. First, we ask: “What sort of a world moral order is suggested by what we have already learned?” Last, we ask: “What further world wide studies do we need to do next?" Page six . The Spectrum .

Toler Special to The Spectrum (SASU) The SUNY Board of Trustees have cancelled a promised open meeting in Albany on April 28 and have substituted a meeting in Nebr York City with invited representatives on the 27th. At least three - Trustees feel that communication between themselves and the “University’s constituents” will be improved, as a result. However, Bob Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and a student member of the Board of Trustees, refused to invite six student representatives to the New York City meeting, saying that the SASU representatives do not approve of the way in which the meeting was cancelled. Elizabeth L. Moore, who presides over the Boarji of Trustees, explained that to hold one meeting for 325,000 students, the “logistics were too complicated.” Trustee Gretchen Siegal elaborated further, stating that the Trustees voted to cancel the open meeting because, “We just felt it was going to be a yelling mass, and a crowd we would not be able to handle in a democratic way.” Wouldn’t be useful Siegel said the April 27 meeting would include discussion on ways of improving communications. She hopes there will be additional meetings during the remainder of this year, continuing into next year. Moore said that although the meeting was scheduled to discuss communications, “that doesn’t mean that a lot of concrete things won’t come up." She said students in Binghamton who met with James Kelly, Executive Vice Chancellor of SUNY in a rather hostile session may have hampered their call for an open meeting with the Trustees. “We (the trustees) want our meetings in a parliamentary form.” Trustee Darwin Wales, who was turned away in an attempt to meet with students in Binghamton last week, thinks that the original request by the students for four regional meetings, one in each of the University centers, would have been the best way to handle open meetings. However, he feels that the students should be more realistic in their demands and think towards the future, rather than discussing a budget which has already been passed by the legislature. “We have to talk about next year’s budget,” he said. “The budget which has been adopted is a fait acompli, there’s nothing that can be changed.” When asked if he thought there might be additional funds in the supplemental budget, Wales said that, “There won’t be enough money in that to put in your eye.” No concerted effort Moore reported that the Trustees have already started to work on next year’s budget with the division of the budget. Sounding k little annoyed by the students requests for the Trustees to more actively defend the University to the legislators and the Governor, Moore excalimad, “I don’t think the students or anyone else knows how much we’ve done. Nobody’s caused us to cut any single campus.” She refused to discuss any victories the Trustees won in the budget that may be unknown to the public. “It’s a very delicate situation,” and publicity could harm their chances of getting funds for next year’s budget, she said. Wales placed part of the blame on the drastic 1976-77 budget cuts on a lack of action by the students. “Students didn’t pay much attention until the budget was passed,” he said. “The student demonstration was timed too late.” Wales feels that if the students had acted earlier it might have helped restore some of the cuts. SASU Legislative Director Joyce Chubka was outraged at Wales’ accusation of student apathy. “This statement shows that the Trustees are completely out of touch with how hard the students and SASU worked to fight the budget cuts, starting with a Washington rally in November. As far as we are concerned, the Trustees never put forth a concerted effort to oppose the cuts.” Neither Wales or.Moore were concerned with the fact that students would not be attending the April 27th meeting. “I can’t help it if they don’t want to come,” said Moore.

On the plus side. Sub Board and Athletics received increases of $24,000 and $17,000 respectively, in the negative category, every one of the Special Interest Groups sustained cuts in their allocations, most notably $10,000 for NYPIRG, $12,000' for the Community Action Corps, and $10,000 for the Black Student Union. With no anticipated rise in the amount of mandatory stu,dent fee money, it appears the SA Finance Committee has been forced to do a little housecleaning within its organization in order to maintain some of the widely-used services at their present levels. Sub Board, for example, will have to duplicate a number of activities in the process of moving out to the Amherst Campus and this, despite skyrocketing expenses. Athletics, which has been pruned down to a skeleton program, must get more money this coming year to operate on an acceptable level. Yet disturbing is the fact that CAC and NYPIRG, organizations which have always received widespread student support for the social service and consumer action projects they have done, are being cutback by approximately one-third. We feel the Finance Committee could have been more lenient in recommneding budgets for these two groups and we suggest the Financial Assembly reconsider the $20,000 increase in the SA staff budget when it reviews the budgets today.

Mr. Cohen's perception of the office differed substantially from his predecessors, notably last year's chairman, Stan Morrow, who felt the size of the crowd was more important than the relevance of the speaker. Mr. Cohen, however, read the newspapers first and then chose his guests. The names of many of the speakers he brought to the University, such as Jimmy Carter, Morris Udall, I.F. Stone, and Daniel Schorr, have all made or commented on the news recently and their discussions were based on topics that were of far more interest and importance than old Superman shows. Entertainment has its place in a speaker's program as long as it doesn't become the overriding criterion for organizing the programs. Mr. Cohen's hope was that the majority of his speakers would give their audiences something to think about. And that should be the first concern in preparing a schedule of speakers for a University audience, when you think about it. Vol. 26, No. This letter is directed to all the pre-law students that fear that low LSAT scores will keep them out of law school. I was advised by pre-law advisor Jerome Fink that my low LSAT’s would make it difficult for me to get into law school even though I had a very high academic average. He suggested that I apply to Antioch Law School, University of Akron, University of Toledo, Nova University in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, Delaware Law School and South Texas College ofLaw. Luckily, I had a-little more faith in myself than Mr. Fink did. 1 was selected by the Political Science Washington Semester Program and have worked fot the past year for Congressman Charles Rangel and as a judicial intern at the Supreme Court, receiving full • academic credit from U.B. For those who suggest that working in Washington does not help you get into law school, I strongly disagree. Almost every intern who works on Capitol Hill receives a letter of recommendation from the congressional member they work for. Although Mr. Fink told me when I was in Buffalo that this probably would not help me, I beg to differ. I have already been accepted by the University of Pennsylvania Law School, the University at California at Davis Law School, U.B. Law School and I have been placed on Georgetown’s waiting list. If you really want to get into law school, don't let anyone, including our pre-law advisor, discourage you. Law school’s are interested in your experience Don’t give up! as well as your It is interesting to note that students at U.B. seem to have priorities which differ considerably from those who make decisions in Washington. About 100 students played the “Taxpayers Game” which was set up in Haas Lounge on April 22nd and 23rd. Each of the participants was given what the average taxpayer pays in taxes every year, $2000 (in not exactly negotiable currency), and asked to “spend" it as he or she saw fit. Seventy-five percent of these tax dollars were earmarked by students for human need programs, education, health care, transportation, pollution control, aid to poor, etc.; 15 percent for a tax rebate, and only 10 percent for the military. This contrasts significantly with current federal priorities where nearly half of our tax dollars are spent on the military. Our experience with the “taxpayers game” suggests that when U.B. students leave the campus and venture into the world of working (assuming they can find a job) and paying taxes, many will find themselves in the predicament of financing national priorities they disagree with or cannot conscience. Rather than acquiescing, I hope they put up a fight. Together we can and must reorder our national priorities. Our lives and the lives of our children depend on it. Walter Simpson WNY Peace Center/CAC Subsidizing the wealthy To the Editor. increasingly clear that it is the banks, not the needs of the people, that determine budget priorities. The State University system accounts for 17 percent of the budget, but has been forced to absorb 34 percent of the state’s budget cuts. The banks on the other hand are receiving record interest rates. The recent New York State budget has eliminated all State University Scholarships, (SUS), for graduate and professional students in the State University of New York (SUNY) system. Previously It is a salient feature of any democratic society there had been a provision that those graduate would year that one achieves on their ability and not on students earning less than $2000 a receive a tuition waiver.

Class size has been demonstrated to be one very important variable in the humanist equation of education at SUNY Buffalo. An increased class size not only limits the Quantity of education per student (if such an inference is not yet too mechanistic), but the quality and indeed the philosophy of education. The thesis that students learn at least as much by collective interaction and student instruction as by faculty instruction, I feel is verifiable. It is the thought behind the oft-repeated but never defined slogan: Education is a social (and dare I add, a political) process. If a class whose form is inclusive of student leadership as well as faculty direction, and gives all a chance to instruct and learn, is faced with increased size (not' to mention reduced adjunct facilities, reduced library services, reduced G.A. and T.A. participation, etc.), the results will probably mean a reversion to auditorium-sized lectureships, little personal contact and no student participation on many levels. Many T.A.’s and faculty depend heavily upon the seminar model. This reversion, I suggest, would be in essence a reversion to ivory towers which neither students nor administration would care to abide. Hence one may see the manner in which class size may (perhaps will) affect the philosophy of education at this University. This will certainly undergraduate make and graduate applicants think twice before depositing their application fee in the provided envelope. The mayhem of administration policy (or non-policy as the case may be) towards educational quality and institutional progressiyism may not be apparent yet. One variable alone proves nothing, but indicates much, yet the long-term affects of said policy, will erupt on the University like a volcano in years to come. What alternatives are there? Well, a “workers control” adaptation to the University from industrial theory is one obvious answer to the acceptance and administration, or revolt against cutbacks. An economically viable model for University control of Univeristy monies, that can also satisfy the demands of the State University Construction Fund and its eternal bonds, has been proposed by one Michael Steven Levinson, ex-Colleges instructor. Educational philosophy is abundantly available from specialists and educators at this University, alike. The Only Mm or Shakeup may be that Ketter would have to go and Somit et al’s job revamped a bit. So, without going into too much detail, it is evident that such plans will probably not succeed nor be given fair hearing. There’s a Catch-22 ring to the whole affair, isn’t there? Fred T. Friedman G.A., Dept, of History As a reporter for this paper, I am sick, sick and tired of trying to get information from “out of town” administrators. Sick of “no comments” from people who’s decisions effect the very life of this University. Sick of faculty who won’t tell me what they know and then complain they don’t know what’s going on. People on this campus have a responsibility to keep students and faculty informed of the decision-making process over issues that ultimately affect the quality of education on this campus. I’m sick of struggling to tell people what’s going on. The old cliche still applies. Honesty is the best policy.

Barclay BARC Suicide not acceptable To the Editor: Emil Fackenheim, internationally-recognized philosopher, has defined an anti-Semite as “anyone who believes that the Jews theologian t>€ t)W and should be homeless.” The desire to destroy Israel is anti-Semitic. No matter how cleverly the UN delegates or Mr. “One Arab” (Wahad Arab!) word their phrases and arguments, they are saying that the Jew deserves less than any other; he deserves to be homeless. The problem of the Palestinian Arabs can be solved via mutual cooperation between Arabs and Jews. As long as accep mce of Arab demands is the equivalent of suicide however, the Arabs will receive no cooperation. Unlike many other peoples of the world, Jews do not enjoy Jewish funerals.

Isolated government because of brutal internationally repression, and crumbling economically despite massive United States aid, the Chilean military dictatorship is in trouble. Last December England broke off diplomatic relations after the Chilean government tortured an English citizen, Dr. Sheila Cassidy, who was accused of treating a wounded resistance leader. Italy has no Ambassador in Chile, nor does Mexico. England, Italy, West Germany, and the Scandanavian countries have cut off economic aid. Most European countries send no military aid. Chile is seen as an international outcast. Recently the United Nations, for the second year in a row, voted overwhelmingly to condemn Chile’s violation of human rights. A UN team, refused entry to Chile last July, nevertheless repared a report based on hundreds of interviews with Chilean exiles. The report documents “routine torture of Aid Two years after the coup of September 1973, Chile remains under a state-of-siege. A curfew is in effect, the press is censored, political parties are banned, and civil liberties suspended. The Chilean military itself has admitted causing 30,000 deaths since the coup. Church sources indicate that over 100,000 people have been imprisoned since the coup, for varying lengths of time. (Chile’s population is 10 million. Comparable statistics in the United States would be 660,000 dead and 2,200,000 imprisoned.) The United States government offers the main support to the military junta in Chile. On December 30, 1974, Congress cut off all military aid to the junta and limited economic aid to $25 million. However, the Executive Branch and the Pentagon have gotten around such restrictions, much as they did in Southeast Asia a few years earlier. Congressman Michael Harrington of Massachusetts documented this in a speech he gave in Congress January 26. He showed by Kyle Steenland Many important that in 1975 Chile received the largest Such abuses led the Senate in February amounts of both economic and military aid to pass the Kennedy amendment, which cut off the loopholes which had enabled of any country in Latin America. Chile received $91 million in economic aid, twice as much as any other Latin American country. Several hundred million more dollars in aid was provided indirectly, through loan guarantees. Military aid to Chile totalled $14 millionbetween January and September of 1975; $102 million more in military aid was scheduled as of September 30 of last year. the Ford administration to give Chile this preferential treatment. But the House watered down the amendment, and it is expected that the junta will receive massive aid from the United States in 1976. But such aid, despite it enormity, has not been enough to save the ruined Chilean economy. A comprehensive report —continued on page 12— Fiscal Year 77 More guns in Ford’s budget NEW YORK (LNS) Guns, not butter, is the message of the Ford Administration’s proposed federal budget for Fiscal Year 1, 1976 1977 (October September 30, 1977). It contains $12.9 billion increase a in military-related spending over the previous year, and a $7 billion decrease for human resources (education, health, food stamps) and physical resources (agriculture, natural resources, housing, environment). Although the Administration claims its request for national defense is $101.1 billion, the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom (WILPF) says the proposed 1977 military budget is really $159.9 billion. The WILPF figures include the costs of military aid to foreign - - countries, military atomic energy activities, the Coast Guard and Selective Service System, as well as expenses due to past military programs, such as interest on war debts and on veterans’ benefits. None of these expenses are included under the budget’s “national defense” heading. Altogether military-related spending accounts for 55.9 percent of the Administration’s request (it was 53.2 percent in Fiscal Year 1976), whereas all domestic non-military programs comprised only 30.8 percent of the request (34.3 percent in 1976). The remaining portion of the proposed federal budget is for foreign affairs and general government expenses. The most expensive items are “strategic weapons systems” such as B-l bombers. Trident submarines and atomic cruise missiles. These three weapons systems, the most expensive ever conceived, are in their early stages of development and are currently costing very little compared to their guture production costs. The B-l bomber, for instance, only accounts for $1.6 billion on the proposed budget, but will cost billion $92 according to Administration sources (more likely over $100 billion) over a 30-year period. The Ford Administration’s projections for the “national defense” part of the military budget amounts to a 45 percent increase over the next four years. Although Ford’s budget shows a $7 billion cutback for domestic spending, when inflation factors are taken into consideration, the cutbacks amount to nearly $21 billion, according to the Nationwide Campaign to Stop the B-l Bomber. Some of the areas facing massive cutbacks are as follows: Health Ford is proposing changes in Medicare (aid to elderly or disabled) which will require all recipients to pay part of the medical expenses they receive. Under the proposal, it is projected that Medicare patients would pay $1.9 billion for medical costs, while receiving only $568 million for Medicare. The new requirements will all but eliminate 22 million people from the program. — In addition. Ford wants to eliminate federal Medicaid (aid to poor patients) and 15 other health programs entirely, with the federal government turning over a lesser amount to individual states to operate their own programs. Food and Nutrition Ford proposes to pare $900 million from the food stamp program despite the fact that more people than ever qualify under current standards. A proposed change in standards would eliminate five million of the 25 million recipients. Ford is proposing to cut another $600 million from 15 child nutrition programs which have a current budget of $2.9 billion. 1977 will be “only” 6.9 percent Taxes To raise money for the budget, workers will be hit with a 5 percent increase in social security taxes, a provision intended to for the compensate high unemployment rate which leaves fewer people paying social security. Meanwhile, Ford is proposing corporate tax writeoffs, and reduction of the corporate Education tax rate representing $13 billion Federal spending on education in lost tax revenues. will get cut back by $500 million Congress has opposed most of under the Ford proposal to the proposed cutbacks in $7.6 billion.

The Spectrum . Page eleven �I Cril/6... V g ¥ • —continued from page 11— - published in the -Wew York Times last February detailed the economic disaster. Chile’s official inflation rate in 1974 was 360 percent; in 1975 it was 340 percent. The true inflation rate is probably more tiian 500 percent a year. Unemployment is officially 18 percent but more probably 20-25 percent. According to the report, industrial production dropped 24 percent in 1975, while the Gross National Product (GNP) dropped 10-12 percent. The foreign debt is a staggering $5 billion, with interest alone totalling nearly $750 million this year. Real wages of salaried employees have dropped a shocking 50 percent since 1970, and there has been an even more drastic decline compared to wage levels enjoyed in 1973 under AUende. In short, Chile is suffering from a depression worse than that of the 1930’s. Chile’s internal market system has collapsed. Major industries are either shut down or producing only part-time. Many people do not have enough money to buy needed food. Junta destabilized? The economic disaster has, predictably, led to political unrest. The poorer people the workers and the peasants in Chile suffer the brunt of the repression and strongly oppose the junta. The leftist parties went underground after the coup and have organized a growing resistance movement. Even some of those who supported the coup are now calling for changes. The Christian Democratic party, which supported the coup, is now sharply criticizing the junta. Christian Democratic leader Eduardo Frei, President of Chile from 1964-70 and defeated by Allende in 1970, has publicly come out against the junta. - - Thus, 1976 may see some big changes. The junta has had to purge other factions Weekend rough on track, tennis teams ' s .. It was a rocky weekend for the Bull track and tennis teams. Both journeyed to the state capital for SUNY Center meets, and both fell victim to powerful teams from the host school. In track, the Bulls scrambled to a second place finish, but trailed the Great Danes by 68 points when all the points were tallied. The final score was Albany 104, Buffalo 36, Binghamton 34, and Stony Brook 33. v The Bulls managed three first place performances courtesy of fldred Stephens, Walt Malady, and Ron McGraw. Malady took the shot put and grabbed seconds in both the hammer and discus. The bufly weight man has emerged as the Bulls’ top performer since sprinter jumper Stephens has been slowed by an injury. The injury to Stephens, a chronically sprained ankle, did not stop him from winning altogether at Albany, though. Stephens triumphed in the long jump with a leap of 22’5-3/4”. McGraw, who is primarily known for his work on the basketball court, was a surprise victor for Buffalo in the 440 yard run as the other Buffalo winner. On the tennis courts, things did not go nearly as well for Buffalo. Without the service of former captain Rich Abbott, the tennis Bulls finished last in the three team SUNY Center championship. Albany won the tennis tournament and Binghamton came in second. Stony Brook did not send a team. The tennis Bulls will try their luck tomorrow at Colgate and on Saturday, the track Bulls host the 24th annual UB Invitational. 20 ACRE FARM WITH SECLUDED WOODLAND MONROE COUNTY, W.

ERIE MEDICAL CENTER Buffalo, N.Y.(716)883-2213 �Commentary Toronto DA taking on NHL Editor’s note: The Toronto-Philadelphia series was one of the most brutal series in NHL history, involving players, fans and law enforcers. This is a commentary on the actions of the various parties involved. by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer Last week there was an incident in the National Hockey League playoffs that was of major importance to the sport of ice hockey. It was the arrest of three Philadelphia Flyers in Toronto for assault with a dangerous weapon, namely a hockey stick. Don Saleski, Mel Bridgman and Joe Watson were arraigned in a Toronto police station on varying counts of assault and assault with a weapon, on charges brought about by Ontario District Attorney Roy McMurtry. The arrests stemmed from an on-the-ice incident in the third playoff game between the Flyers and the Toronto Maple Leafs jn Toronto. Saleski was serving a penalty when many of the Leafs’ fans began spitting on him and throwing cans of beer at him for his rugged style of play. Saleski, in retaliation, leaned over the “protective” glass partition and began swinging his stick at the fans. His Flyer teammates quickly came to his rescue, and they, too, went after the fans. In the midst of the melee a rink security guard was struck on the shoulder with a hockey stick, but was not seriously hurt. DA morning The next McMurtry pressed charges and had the Philadelphia players arrested. End of factual incident, start of big controversy. Who the hell is Roy McMurtry to intercede in a National Hockey League playoff game and start arresting the participants? (Or should that be the visiting participants?) McMurtry feels that the game of hockey, Canada’s national pastime is in need of cleaning up, and he’s going to ride through the league’s arenas on his legal white horse and do the job himself. Ha, what a joke. He should be taking care of true legal activities in Ontario, not those he creates himself. Granted the game of hockey may indeed be a little more violent than it should be, but what qualifies McMurtry to make that judgement? The league is set up in such a way that it should be able to govern itself and handle its own problems. Dirty pool What motivates McMurtry to play court, police and league official is unknown to the public, and anyone’s guess stands a good chance of being right. A thought here is that the Ontario DA has his eyes gazing on some higher position in “the legal political circus” and is trying to make a name for himself. Indeed, his name has been splashed across the sports pages of every newspaper and magazine this side of the Atlantic Ocean. A truly ingenious publicity stunt, if in actuality, that’s what this is. Or is McMurtry really just a hardened Maple Leaf fan, tired of seeing the locals getting pumelled everytime they engage in fisticuffs? The Maple Leafs have, until this year, been dead last in penalty minutes in the league, and easy conquests in physical battles. So McMurtry may be trying to protect his beloved Leafs. Mind you, this is not the first time that McMurtry has “refereed.” Earlier this season he brought charges against Detroit’s Danny Maloney for clobbering the Leafs’ Brian Glennie in a fight. If Roy McMurtry is at all the hockey games in Toronto, then who is minding the store? Negative repercussions The results of McMurtry’s actions are yet to be seen, but the possibilities are endless. First, assuming that nothing comes of these charges (as most people think), then there will probably be.a lot less violence in games played in Toronto, but the Leafs can expect to cath hell on the road. Or, other DA’s will imitate McMurtry, and in time half the league will be in the slammer. Should players start being jailed with regularity for actions occuring in Toronto, it is not unreasonable to think that the NHL Players’ Association would boycott all games played in the Canadian city. While the Leaf players might enjoy the nights off, owner Harold Ballard’s pocketbook surely wouldn’t enjoy Fights liks the one above between Montreal's Peter Mahovlich and Gerry Hart of the Islanders (Hart at the time of the photo was playing for Detroit) have been the cause of increasing concern about violence the vacation. in the NHL. There are various issues which should be kept in mind. The first of which is that hockey is a violent game by nature, and it is foolish to think that it can be extensively. restructured Secondly, the style of play that the Flyers use is not only successful on the ice, but it also brings fans to the games. the financial sorespots like St. Louis and Kansas City. So if McMurtry feels that he can alter the style of play, then he will be bucking the entire NHL system which is, after all, a business. And finally, any changes that are going to be leveled are going to have to start within the organization in order to set a realistic precedent for future troubles. Whatever city the Flyers play in, they pack the house, even in Bowlers freed bp computer by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Computers have invaded Suburban Lanes on Niagara Falls Boulevard in Amherst, Instead of the usual paper and pencil, Suburban boast? a new computerized scoring mechanism known as the Rapid Score Automatic Scoring System. Bowlers now need only to touch a button and bowl, and their scores are computed electronically by this robot serf. Sururban Lanes Manager Jack Robins said the new system is a progressive step in the bowling business, and he expects that eventually all bowling establishments will have units similar to the Rapid Score system. For the bowler, Rapid Score makes life easy. The bowler merely presses one button every time he is ready to bowl a frame, and the way is then clear to shoot. Never again will he have to remember that a strike is worth ten plus the next two balls because Rapid Score" will remember for him. error be detected Robins says that despite this problem reaction by bowlers to Rapid Score has been good. He said, "Ninety percent of the bowlers enjoy using it. They don’t complain about the system. They like not being tied into the scoring table. It lets tham socialize more, gives them more of a chance to kibbitz.” Views differ But bowlers in Suburban’s two Monday Night Leagues differed from Robins in their view of the merits of Rapid Score. Most everyone felt that it makes too many mistakes, affects the price they pay to bowl, and has to be watched very carefully. Members of a team from the Delaware Park Memorial Chapel all agreed that Rapid Score is less than perfect. One member siad, “I think it stinks because it’s not infallible.” An error of a point or two could throw an entire match.” Another member added, “I haven’t heard anybody say anything good about it.” Bowlers pay The cost of this autmoated system is not small, and like most increased costs, is affecting the final consumer, the bowler. Prices per game have risen five cents, according to Robins. He explained, “Rapid Score hit us at a bad time economically. We had to increase the price of bowling of compensate for costs.” Robins estimated that the cost for installing Rapid Score into the 52 lanes at Suburban was about 200,000 dollars. Rapid Score is the brand name of one of three new automated bowling systems. It was produced by RCA, but Brunswick and AMF are also in the process of refining similar systems. Suburban is one of four bowling centers in Western New York that have already installed an automated system. Perhaps Rapid Score’s biggest shortcoming is that it has a tendency to make mistakes, mainly because the unit is still being researched and because it currently requires considerable maintenance. Although the mistakes can be corrected the procedure is. tedious, and only by inspection can an Niagara Hobby team members had similar reactions. One member of that team observed, “You can’t tell the marks. You don’t know how many marks you’re down, and it takes half an hour' to correct the score.” A teammate added, “1 don’t imagine they took a survey to find out if people wanted it or not.” A contingent from Ryan Homes was not quite as hostile toward Rapid Score as were other teams, but they did admit that it can be “a real headache” when it makes a mistake. They also pointed out, that, “it lets you drink more.” Robins explained that the reason for the machine’s tendency to err was due to the fact that “they haven’t gotten all the bugs out yet.” He added that there is a minority of people who say they like to keep score, but that there is little he can do to appease them. Despite the other adverse comments, Robins felt that Rapid Score has still been sell received by its users. He said, “People have left Suburban and then come back saying that they missed Rapid Score.”, The baseball Bulls won their home opener last week against Canisius by the score of 7-1. The hitting star of the game for Buffalo, third baseman John Kidd, who knocked in four runs and scored one of his own for Buffalo, is also this week's Athlete of the Week. Kidd's first inning single brought home the first Bull score, while his double in the seventh with bases full was good for three runs worth of insurance.

Refunds may be obtained at theNorton Hall Ticket Office. > Different points of view on the desegregation 6f the Buffalo schools will be presented at a forum to be held in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room Thursday night at 8 p.m. Wjiiiam Gaiter of the BUILD organization, Norman Goldfarb of the Citizens Council on Human Relations (CCHR), and Buffalo Common Council Member Bill Price have agreed to participate in the discussion. A fourth panelist, as yet unidentified, is expected to represent the Board of Education’s position on the issue. Sponsors are the Student Association Speaker’s Bureau, Tolstoy College, and the American Studies and Sociology Departments. The forum is free to all. The CCHR, in cooperation with the Buffalo Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and a number of parents of Buffalo school children, have sued city and state officials to desegregate the public school system. The case was heard in Federal District Court in 1974 by Judge John T. Curtin, and the parties have been awaiting his decision since then. Earlier this month, Curtin promised to announce his verdict by April 30, and there is a good chance he will do so in timefor the discussion. The black rights federation, BUILD (Build Unity Independence Liberty Dignity) is a strong advocate of community control of public schools. By special arrangement with the city, the organization shares in running the BUILD Academy as a public elementary school. Price attacked a recently released board “integration plan” when talking with the conference sponsors. The proposal had been presented as an alternative to a more demanding set of recommendations previously presented by State Regents officials. “The board’s alternative plan, as applied to North-East Buffalo, so patently stimulates a pattern of re-segregation, 1 contend that it violates the Fourteenth Amendment rights of some of my constituents,” said Price.

No. 78 University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 23 April 1976 Present five demands Coalition meets with Ketter by Brett Kline Feature Editor Four members of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks met for over one hour Wednesday with President Robert Ketter, after about 35 students had marched from the Union to Hayes Hall to demand such a meeting. questioned Anthony students had The Lorenzetti, Associate Vice-President for Student Affairs, about the cutbacks and the Coalition demands for an hour or so in the lobby of Hayes, before Ketter arrived in the building. The first Coalition action was to present Ketter with the petitions supporting the five demands which contained over 2800 signatures. Ketter told the Coalition he had received recommendations for all areas of the University except the health science unit, which includes all medical and health science related fields. By .today, the administration will have already printed and distributed 1400 copies of an unfinished report of the recommended cuts, too late for publication n Friday’s issue of The Spectrum. To be circulated This incomplete report will be circulated among student groups and administrative, faculty including those the University, throughout departments which have already been notified of faculty firings. These departments will be given time next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday to present any statements or statistics opposing the proposed firings. Work on the incomplete report was already in progress before Ketter met with the Coalition, but some Coalition members felt that they had pressured him somewhat into releasing it earlier than originally planned. The final report will be made available to the public by next Friday, possibly in the Reporter, according to Ketter. He said it will detail exact budgetary and faculty cuts. The Coalition representatives asked Ketter if all courses listed in the Class Schedule for Fall/76 will definitely still be offered in September. Students in some departments are wondering if they are registering for courses, which may not be offered. No definite answer Ketter could not guarantee that all courses would definitely be offered in September, according to one representative, but emphasized that tenured professors who are cut must be given one year’s notice of their retrenchment. It was not clear if Ketter was suggesting that the cutbacks will go into effect next fall the student continued. But he said the administration is reportedly seeking to establish the same one year’s notice system with untenured professors. The delegates asked Ketter if he would write another letter to the SUNY Board of Trustees, urging them to reopen to students a meeting now scheduled for April 29 in New York City. Ketter refused, saying he didn’t know the circumstances under which it was closed. One Coalition member remarked that Ketter did not seem willing to pressure the Trustees to any great length. Ketter was not available for comment because he flew to Albany immediately after the meeting to confer with the presidents of all SUNY University Centers and Colleges. In a somewhat candid statement to the students and to Albert Somit and Anthony Lorenzetti, also present at the meeting, Ketter said, referring to the Board of Trustees, “The State University is not a democracy it is benevolent despotism.” A few minutes later, he asserted that this University was no different than any other school that no University is a democracy. Ketter told the students that the best way lo put direct pressure on the Board is to speak with its two Buffalo representatives, Bill Hasset, owner of the Buffalo Statler Hilton, and Manley Fleischman, a — — Clark for reordering America’s priorities by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor “Let’s not defer the American dream; no, let’s believe in ourselves, become involved and be the masters rather than the victims of change.” Keynoting “change” as the magic formula for curing the widespread ills and inequities in American society, U.S. Senate candidate Ramsey Clarke addressed a receptive audience in Haas Lounge, Tuesday afternoon. Clark’s latest political plunge marks his second bid for a New York senate seat in two years, having lost a surprisingly close race to longstanding incumbant Jacob Javits in 1974. Thusfar he is the only Democratic candidate to officiaUy declare his intention of entering the September primary which determines the nomination. However, Congresswoman Bella Abzug is expected to enter the “ass” race shortly, and reliable rumor hash that former U.N. ambassador fighting Irishman Daniel Moynihan is now carefully his weighing political options e After serving in the Kennedy-Johnson Justice Department for eight years, first as assistant Attorney General and then Attorney General (1967-69), Clark went on to champion a plethora of controversial causes from the Berrigan brothers to protesting Eskimos in Alcatraz. Last year he and William Kunstler led the defense of Attica brothers Dacajewiah and Charlie Joe Pernasales. An outspoken liberal from a traditionally conservative state, Texas, Ramsey has an outstanding record as a civil libertarian and crusading public defender. Speaking in a slow precise manner with a trace of Texas twang, Clark expressed concern over the present state of America. Referring to — —continued on page 2— • —continued on page 2— SA replaces Ketter as defendant in Coop case by Steve Milligram Contributing Editor The Student Association (SA) was named defendent intervenor Wednesday in the lawsuit brought by record store owner Carl Cavage against the University and President Ketter over the Record Coop. Judge Joseph Ricotta also accepted a motion to dismiss one of the two sections of the suit. Cavage hopes to close down the Record Coop on the grounds that a public employee (Ketter) overstepped his authority, and that the Coop uses state facilities to unfairly compete with private enterprise. The section charging Ketter with misconduct in allowing the Coop to reopen was dismissed. Prosecuting Attorney Jim Sullivan said that Ricotta’s action will be appealed, but added. that it could cause problems for both sides since Ricotta gave no reason for his decision. Gaining co-defendent status was labeled a “victory” by Student Association (SA) President Steven Schwartz. “We can all witness, make motions, raise arguments, and appeal the decision if it goes against us,” Schwartz explained. Related suit remains The part of the suit remaining charges that under Article 7-A of the State Finance Law, any citizen has the right to bring suit state funds and/or properties are misappropriated and/or misapplied, according to Jim Kennedy of the State Attorney General’s office, who is defending the University. Cavage charges that under this law, the Coop is an illegal operation. Kennedy will now be joined by SA’s lawyer Dick lippes in the University and SA’s defense. Schwartz said SA has 20 days to answer Cavage’s original complaint in court, and that they will be doing so shortly. “Hopefully, we will now be able to have a quick trial and a quick decision,” he said. “Things look good.” Sullivan said Cavage’s will seek reversal of Judge Ricotta’s dismissal of the misconduct suit. “We have three options: we can appeal after a decision has been reached under Article 7-A; we can let it go, or we can appeal now,” he said. Sullivan added that they want to proceed with an appeal now, and will repeat the appeal later if this one is unsuccessful. if Trouble last summer Controversy arose over the Record Coop last fall when Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty ordered it to close following a complaint from Cavages. Ketter reversed Doty’s decision after several meetings were held between SA and Coop leaders and administration officials. Cavages complaint stemmed from the size to which the Record Coop had grown, totaling sales of over $200,000 annually. The compromise solution reached meetings with Ketter and SA representative called for a ceiling of $10,000 monthly, severely cutting back the stock and hours of the Coop. The Coop first opened in September, 1971 when Ketter established three guidelines for its operation. The first required that records be kept of gross receipts and net income; the second mandated that all net proceeds be subject to mandatory fee guidelines, and the third called for renewal of approval on a yearly basis. �Coalitibn....... Clark speech —continued from page I— ■i prominent Buffalo lawyer. The Coalition delegates said that Ketter would not issue any new statement to the Board members, but that Ketter gave the Coalition permission to quote from his recent telegram. The SUNY Board of Trustees will hold four open regional meetings during the upcoming fall semester. ~ - The Coalition further demanded that Ketter schedule an open forum between the UB Council and the entire student and faculty population. Ketter did not exclude the possibility of this forum, but insisted that he would prefere a meeting with a few members of the Council, as opposed to the entire group. He indicated that Student Association President Steve Schwartz should propose the open forum at the next Coucil meeting, to which he is the sole student representative. The next Council meeting is scheduled for May 10, so an open forum, if decided upon, would not occur until the fall semester. Asked for letter Schwartz said after the meeting, ‘Twill bring up this proposal at the next Council meeting.” The four Coalition members also asked Ketter to write a letter to The Spectrum, explaining his position on the cutbacks, and to address a formal answer to their three demands. His response to writing both letters was positive. All four students agreed they were “dissatisfied with the administration’s slowness in voicing concern for students.” Somit termed the meeting “a constructive disucssion, what you might call a full and frank exchange of views.” “The students understand the problem better i " i 4 it i * • and we understand their viewpoint better,” he continued. Steve Schwgrtz commented, “It was an informative meeting... I don’t know how productive it was.” • Before the meeting with Ketter, Coalition leaders had tried, with little apparent success, to organize a rally in the fountain area behind Norton Union. Few of those people around the fountain responded to the students, who, with bullhorns, urged them to join the march to Hayes Hall. Once there, the 30 to 40 students debated their next move while six plainclothed and uniformed security guards looked on. When they learned that Ketter was not available at that moment, the students demanded to see Lorenzetti. A few minutes later, a uniformed guard reported from the inner hallway, “Lorenzetti will come over, make yourselves at home.” When Lorenzetti did appear, the students immediately presented him with the petitions and asked if he personally would send a telegram to the Trustees. “The Board has its own perogatives about opening or closing its meeting and answering questions like these,” he replied, “but I completely understand the anxiety of students.” Under repeated questioning, Lorenzetti insisted that he knew nothing about the cuts made in Social Sciences or American Studies, and he could not explain how the Buffalo Evening News had received this information. Insisting further that he had no say in budget allocations, Lorenzetti said, “We have little or no control over the amount of money that comes into this University.” It “is a creature of the state.” I——####—####—**—#####*#**#—##******—*—1****—t BE PART OF THE FAMILY ij ANACONE'S INN I A HOME AWAY FROM HOME . ji 3178 Bailey Ave. jj (across from Capri Art Theatre) i; |!

NAME ADDRESS j MAJOR Page two The Spectrum Friday, 23 April 1976 . . . . — . agricultural subsidy programs which pay farmers billions of dollars per annum for not growing certain- crops, he said, “What kind of people can sit around knowing they can produce more food while watching millions worldwide starve.” He lamented over the State Senate’s failure to confirm Herman Schwartz as chairman of the newly reconstituted Commission of Corrections. Schwartz, a professor at the law school here, is one of the nation’s foremost defenders of prisoner rights. Clark called him a prophet and one of the most knowledgeable lawyers on the subject in the United States. “Apparently there are powerful forces at work in this state, actively undermining change,” he said. One New York Times legislative analyst indicated that the Schwartz’s unfavorable vote was solely motivated by politics The the Republicans, were beyond question. integrity and competence Senate notably leaders, were pressured by party reporter explained, majority leader Warren Anderson, to turn down Schwartz because they had not been displaying enough opposition to the initiatives of Democratic Governor Hugh Carey. - American ideals Recalling the ideals of the founding fathers and the high importance they placed on education, Clark denounced the country’s decreased commitment to public education. Benjamin Franklin wrote in Poor Richard’s Almanac, “There is only one thing more expensive than education and that’s ignorance.” Thomas Jefferson wished to be most fondly remembered for his founding of the University of Virginia and the epitaph on his gravestone mentions this action. Literacy, Clark maintained, is a precondition for power. Higher education used to be the pursuit of the aristocracy. Over the decades, he added, the universities have been gradually democratized but now there is a movement afoot to turn the clock back and deprive the masses of higher learning. The attacks on the City University of New York (CUNY) Clark said," are counterproductive and totally unwarranted. “Where do we get the idea that compulsory public education stops at high school?” Deploring contemporary educational techniques, Clark insisted that the operant conditioning of education must be broken down. Mentor Kennedy Clark touched on a popular and familiar issue when he spoke forcefully for fuller exploitation of solar energy. He referred to the late Robert Kennedy in the most glowing of terms. Clark, who served under Kennedy when the latter was attorney general, humbly admitted that he owes a large part of his success to the man. Clark believes that Kennedy’s dormant sense of justice was reawakened by the 1966 Mississippi Civil Rights hearings, causing him to become “one of the great moral forces of our time. Before this transformation of attitude, Kennedy was much narrower, he said. Clark adyocates unconditional amnesty for Vietnam War draft resisters and deserters. He considers Ford’s partial amnesty to be not only inadequate but .cruel. The privileged and wealthy were able to escape the draft through deferments or obtain non-combat positions, while the poor and powerless had no way out. Clark condemned State Bill S.l, a comprehensive compilation of federal law, as wholly inimical to freedom. “It contains more than 50 provisions which would perpetuate an authoritarian, police state.” Clark conceded the need for a jnodel federal criminal code but added that this freedom stifling product of the subversive ideas of Richard Nixon and John Mitchell has no place in American society. Clark favors a $30 billion reduction in the defense budget, a highly unpopular view in the current political climate. This money, he insisted, could be better spent on pressing social needs. “$60 billion could be easily collected by closing a handful of tax loopholes.” “The defense budget skyrockets without a whimper from the overwhelmingly Democratic Congress. Once heavily scrutinized by Pentagon watchdogs in Congress the military budget is rammed down the throats of the American people in the form of a $110 billion sacred cow.” Clark is deeply troubled about the ordering of America’s priorities, which he says lacks any moral fiber. His concern seems genuine, unlike the contrived and rehearsed moaning of many other political aspirants. His tone is academic, yet digestible to the man on the street. No media consultants and pollsters swarm around Clark. His style so informal and on the level that one Time magazine correspondent is describing Clark’s campaign against Javits in 1974 observed, “it looks like he isn’t even running.” The Spectrum is published Monday, Wednesday and Friday during the ZIP STATE I CITY I UNDERGRADUATE COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY —continued from page 1 academic year and on Friday only during the summer by The .Spectrum Student Periodical.

Their presence seems to move the entire department to keep up to date on current advances in the field, he said. Fisk was accused by Miles of using only one criteria in determining what programs get his support: namely, the amount of outside research grants the faculty receives. He charged that Fisk doesn’t consider the faculty’s teaching ability or demand by students. Both Fisk_and Reitan were unavailable for comment. There are presently 35 graduate students in the Biology division and 1200 undergraduate majors, the largest enrollment in the Natural Sciences and Mathematics Faculty. Because so many students going into health science related careers chose Biology as their major. Miles said there is already a 31.9 student to faculty ratio in the department, which is almost twice the University average. Miles claims the other departments would not be able to handle the overload of students- coming from Biology. by Jeff Edwards Spectrum Staff Writer Robert Fisk, Vice President for Academic Affairs, has recommended that the Biology graduate program here be discontinued, The Spectrum has learned. Biology Graduate Division Director Philip. Miles received notice two weeks ago from Paul H. Reitan, Provost of the Faculty of Natural Sciences and that Mathematics, Fisk had recommended admissions be suspended to the MA, MS and PhD in Biology, excluding Physiology. An additional recommendation that one faculty position be eliminated has been withdrawn. The Biology Division faculty is writing Fisk urging him not to go through with the proposed reductions. A group of concerned students are also circulating petitions endorsed by the Student Association and the Graduate Student Association, opposing the cuts in the division. Besides ending the graduate program. Miles said cutbacks facing the department, if enacted, would be “an absolute disaster to the undergraduate students at this University.” Without graduate students as teaching assistants (TA), he said, there would be no qualified instructors to teach laboratories. According to Miles, this would result in a great decrease in the number of laboratory sections offered. TA’s from the Cell and Molecular Division of Biology were used to teach regular Biology laboratories this year, but because their background is chemical, not biological, the switch was unsuccessful. THE TWO GREATESTMONSTUkS 1 OF OUR TIME- TOGETHER! programs Housing agrees to change in contract by Diane Gitiin Spectrum Staff Writer Among several changes in next that without the lawsuit, changes in the contract length wouldn’t have occurred. Summer and fall negotiations last year between vear’s Housing contract, students will no longer be bound to remain in their dormitory residences beyond one semestef. Students wishing to leave the dorms after one semester will be required to pay 55 percent of the total annual housing fee. In the past, residents have been required to remain for the full year. Associate Director of Housing, (IRC) President David Brownstein, Schwartz, Wilson and Wilson, described Clifford change as contract lawsuit, as a result of an Albany ruling which declared it contrary the an “experiment.” Its effects will be observed > and then the fiscal and public impact will be determined. Other changes in last year’s contract include omission of the collective liability clause, holding a dormitory floor responsible for by made an damages unidentifiable and perpetrator; the requirement that there be a 24-hour warning period, except in emergency situations, before a Housing employee may enter a dormitory room. What constitutes has been verbally agreed upon by University and Student Association (SA) lawyers. an emergency Responsibility for neglect The new contract also states that Housing may be held responsible dormitory for damages due to neglect and that a student has the right to sue th,e Housing office for breach of contract. SA President Steve Schwartz and Wilson disagree on the influences which brought about the Housing contract changes. Housing Director Madison Boyce over several contract terms were by Schwartz as fruitless. Schwartz said the lawsuit was policy. However, SUNY Schwartz pointed out that this decision was never put in writing, therefore not making it binding. Several students suspect that a number of dormitory residents have been billed on the basis of collective liability despite Housing officials’ verbal assurance that they wouldn’t enforce the clause. Wilson stated that although the collective liability clause was in this year’s contract, it wasn’t enforced. “The state was billed and not the students.” JAWS ' explained and President , Robert Ketter will hold Bureau PRESENTS- fri.

The court case lasted from December, 1975 to April, 1976. However, Schwartz maintains Fisk hearings for programs with planned major reductions April 26 to 28. jJni Wilson said the contract length was altered due to the Housing office’s concern. “We were aware that the students wanted this kind of arrangement,” he said. “It was a way to meet student needs while also being able to fulfill our own fiscal responsibilities to Albany.” Wilson is being compounded by uncertainty, according to Miles; nothing is definite.

But the proliferation of photocopying machines in recent yean has caused a conflict between publiahen, who hold the copyrights, and educaton, who like to copy material for classroom .. - use. Recently, representatives of both educaton and publiahen agreed on guidelines for making multiple copies to be used in school classrooms. The guidelines will be given to a congressional committee revising the copyright kws. Basically, the publishers agreed not to sue a prof for copyright infringement if the copy is short — approximately one article, one two-page excerpt, or one illustration from a work. An entire chapter may be reproduced for the teacher, but not in multiple copies for the class. The guidelines also limit the overall use to nine instances in one class term and do not permit copying the same material term after term. Only one copy per student may be made and only actual photocopying costs may be charged to the student. The guidelines are intended to prevent photocopying from being used as a substitute for purchasing a book, and yet allow students and faculty access to supplementary text material without straining their budgets. . . Anything for capitalism (CPS) If you’ve been wondering why you stay in school lately, Michigan Representative Elford Cederberg has the answer. Take a tip from Elford profits is the magic word. Profits, he said recently in the Congressional Record, “provides the dreams of better days and higher standards of living which motivate our youth to educate themselves.” And what does education do? It “provides the mechanism for even greater untilization of the tools of capitalization.” Increased efficiency and production will then lead to “more jobs and a greater surplus, above our consumption.” And now a sobering note from the College Placement Council: jobs for college grads will probably be at an all time low for the class of 1976. Job offers are down about 16 percent, the Council - Discussion led by SUE URBAS Golden State students hit silver screen in blue movies Someone has been making pornographic movies in the dorms at San Jose State College in California for the past two yean, and the productions have opened to mixed reviews. “The whole college thing has come together for me for the fint time,” gushed one coed who took part in the filming. “Drinking, drugs and sex, all at once.” “Obscene behavior is clearly contrary to university policy,” harumphed college president John Bunzel, who has launched an investigation into the incident. “I tried to be a cool reporter but I must have turned 12 shades of purple before they were through,” admitted Louise Randall, a writer for the student newspaper who hunted down the action for two months and then witnessed the Aiming of a couple scenes. “Most of them are clean, well-raised, mom-and-apple-pie types you wouldn’t pick as porno chicks, commented the director, speaking of the nine female students who acted for him.

Main Street Campus Fall 1976. Monday-Wednesday-Friday 1:00 -1:50 Professor Raoul Naroll No Prerei ulslte. Hayes Hall 239 - — 4 Credit Hours. Can we find a moral order for all mankind through world wide studies of social problems? In this course, we try. We take five basic core values as given: 1) health, 2) pleasure, 3) science, 4) justice and 5) peace. We take 36 working measures of these five values. Most of these measures involve twelve basic social problems: 1) mental illness; 2) alcoholism; 3) suicide; 4) child abuse; 5) women ip trouble; 6) teenagers in trouble; 7) old people in trouble; 8) divorce; 9) income sharing; 10) economic progress; 11) civil strife; and 12) war. We review hundreds of world wide tests of theories about what increases or decreases these 36 measures. We look carefully at three general systems of cultural dynamics: 1) Social seromechanisms. 2) Natural selection arenas. 3) Accumulation processes. We sum up in two ways. First, we ask: "What sort of a world moral order is suggested by what we have already learned?" \.ast, we ask: "What further world wide studies do we need to do next?"

When he arrived, the three allegedly jumped him, beat him in an elevator, and dragged him from the Center without identifying themselves as police. This occurred after Johnson learned the police were investigating him and had offered to meet with them voluntarily, according to the committee. Two- of Johnson’s co-workers at the Center, C. Ray Whitaker and Lumon Ross, were arrested trying to defend him. A jury them innocent of found obstruction of justice charges on January 28, partly because their trial showed a number of irregularities and errors by police in Johnson’s arrest. , Last December 3, Buffalo police arrested Kenneth Johnson in connection with a series of highly publicized rapes that took place in several downtown parking ramps. Johnson was subsequently indicted by a grand jury on two counts of first-degree rape, two counts of first-degree robbery, one count of first-degree sodomy, and one count of resisting arrest. The Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson insist that Buffalo Police, under pressure from downtown merchants, arrested the wrong man. “The rapist is still at large,” the Committee warns. The rapes occurred Thanksgiving in several parking ramps in the vicinity of the Main Place Mall. With the help of the victims, police put together a composite sketch of the rapist. This sketch was then printed in area newspapers and shown on television. Ambush About a week later, a security General in Buffalo guard Hospital’s Community Health Center, where Johnson works, called police to report that an employee seemed to resemble the sketch of the rapist. According to the committee, three members of the police Street Crime Unit dressed as No resemblence Johnson was initially held in lieu of $50,000 bail, but was released when his family and friends posted $30,000. While he is currently free, he faces up to 126 years in prison if convicted of all charges. His trial is not expected to start until late August or early September. The committee insists that Johnson is innocent and has proof of his whereabouts at the time of the rapes. Also, they claim he does not even resemble the sketch of the rapist. “Victims described the rapist as being light-skinned ,” flyer states, a committee “Kenneth Johnson is dark-skinned v< FRIDAY Commuter Day — 2:00 pm Coffeehouse with John Williams Student Club (Ellicott) Sponsored by SA Activities — 7:00 pm & 9:00 pm Film; "Yellow Submarine" 147 Diefendorf Tickets $1.00 available at Norton Ticket Office Club Proceeds for Divine Divine Club by Light Co-sponsored and S.A.

Persistence and hard work has won SA the right to be named co-defender of the Record Coop along with the University in the lawsuit initiated by Buffalo record store owner Carl Cavage. Cavage wants more than anything to see the Coop shut down once and for all so, that his store across the street can prosper at the expense of student dollars. With SA lawyers representing the Coop, we have some assurance that this valuable, not-for-profit student service will receive a strong, carefully planned defense. And SA has promised to appeal in the event that the final decision goes against the Coop After battling with the University Housing Office for over a year, SA and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) have apparently convinced Housing officials that a number of provisions in the contract gave, them an unfair advantage over dormitory residents. Under the terms of the new agreement, students who live in the dorms may leave after one semester without resorting to phony marriage licenses or special diets, as they have had to in the past. The contract also protects a student's right of privacy since Housing authorities will no longer be permitted to enter a room without prior warning If there were nothing more than the malice of a couple of students behind the recent anonymous attacks against me and my work at Oakstone Farm, I wouldn’t bother to respond. But there is a great deal more at stake, including a general misrepresentation of the academic enterprise, and the suffocation of academic freedom. To make that clear, there are some things I want to state about philosophy and its reception in the University community. If I’m silenced, have a look around for the totalitarians; they’re probably closer than you think, and by the time you-find them out, it may be too late. Almost 20 years ago, I began to have grave doubts about the human value of the highly technical approach to education I saw developing in the universities, and started to look for more humane alternatives. I turned from current empiricism to German phenomenology and Greek philosophy, especially Plato and Hegel. 1 was then at Stanford University, whose Philosophy Department Chairman, Patrick Suppes, told one of my advisors, “Hegel is not philosophy,” and wrote a negative opinion on my Hegel dissertation, resulting in the termination of my doctoral candidacy. But there were two catches: First, Suppes had never seen the dissertation; second, he controlled about two million dollars of research funds. Two million dollars can’t be wrong, although the president of Stanford did concede, after I had been forced to leave, that the action was “a regrettable error.” Stanford of course made the usual vague allegations about my character in its official coverup. But I think the basic motive behind Suppes’ actions was a widespread prejudice against Hegel, which asserts the Platonic origins of Hegelian thought and the totalitarian consequences. Marxism is sometimes involved, and we are dealing with ideological issues over which many intellectuals have lost their lives. The process starts with apparently mild academic defamation like this; “Hegel achieved the most miraculous He even accomplished the deduction things of the actual positions of the planets, thereby proving that no planet could be situated between Mars and Jupiter (unfortunately, it had escaped his notice that such a planet had been discovered Hegel’s fame was made a few months earlier) by those who prefer a quick initiation into the deeper secrets of this world to the laborious technicalities of science.” (Sir Karl Popper, The Open Society and its Enemies .) The general idea is that Hegel, following Plato, is a mystery-monger unworthy of serious study, and that we should turn to empirically responsible science for intellectual salvation (as many have done). Unfortunately for Popper, whose passion for empirical method does not go so far as reading the texts he abuses, Hegel actually writes no such thing; he tries instead to show that the empirically-known solar system will also reveal an intelligible ordering close to what we still know today as the Titius-Bode Law. The real issue is the controversy between rationalism and empiricism recently revived by the linguist, Noam Chomsky; and it has unexpected social and political results. We can get a glimpse of what they are by looking at the late Jacob Bronowski’s view of the matter. Like Popper, he achieved fame and fortune by belittling Hegel thus: “The society of scientists is simple because it has a directing purpose; to explore the truth.... (Scientists] did not set out to become moralists or revolutionaries. Napoleon did not find a scientist to elevate tyranny into a system; that was done by the philosopher Hegel. Hegel had written his university dissertation to prove philosophically ' ... It took much complaining, first, and persistence, second, to the get Housing and contract changed to secure co-defendant status in the Coop case. But it just goes to ... prove that students do have some recourse if ever they feel they are being given a raw deal.

Unhappily for Bronowski’s simple truths,... Bertrand Lord Russell wrote more of the same kind of thing (Authority and the Individual), and the public devoured it. But it is not only Popper, Bronowski, Russell, Suppes, and my courageous but anonymous critics who feel thus justified in dismissing what they fail to understand or even examine, and label “authoritarian.” As Chomsky suggests, it is a favorite manipulative trick of the technocrat; it first appears within the works of Plato, as a contest between Socrates the philosopher and his sophistic and technocratic opponents. There are numerous examples of the sophistic abuse and defamation of the philosopher. I don’t mean that I am Socrates, and have so far been subject only to academic banishment and personal abuse;-nobody has threatened me with death (yet). If Socrates himself appeared at UB today, he probably would get instant justice in a mob scene, while the local potentates looked on from afar with relief. Still, my detractors flatter me by finding certain Socratic characteristics: “Ask youself the simple question, but ask it more than once. Why would a 45-year-old graduate student seek to live with younger students, 20 years of age?” (Anonymous 2) “Scientists may have mistresses or read Karl Marx; some of them may even be homosexuals and read Plato. But in a world in which state and dogma seem always either to threaten or cajole, the body of scientists is trained to avoid and organized to resist every form of persuasion but the fact.” (Bronowski again, at his noblest.) Needless to say, I have run into the same difficulties in teaching Plato at UB as I ran into while studying Hegel at Stanford. “Plato is parlor games,” stated former Academic V.P. Bernard Gelbaum while “visiting” Oakstone Farm, and then dismissed me from the College B faculty in flagrant violation of the Policies of the Board of Trustees. Obviously, Messrs. Ketter and Somit approved. They have been busy covering up violation of my academic freedom and civil liberties ever since. They created the climate for my Detractor 2, who, to “clear up the air a bit,” asserted the complete lie that I teach or taught as part of my “Fellowship responsibilities.” All the teaching I have done at this University in the last five years has taken place despite the ■■University, and not with its support; and more than two years of administrative work were extorted from me as the price for my academic freedom. Messrs. Ketter and Somit are still working on the coverup. They’ve done a splendid job cultivating ground for the malicious. The reason the Ketter administration gives for putting philosophy at the bottom of the priority list is that it has little or no practical or social value. That’s true. It discourages manipulation. In fact, philosophy has the very impractical value, in the current mad power struggle, of insisting that truthfulness and integrity are worth something, and that there is more to life. Whoever still cares and understands the role of philosophy in the defense of academic freedom may well prefer the climate at Oakstone Farm to the climate at UB. But remember, it’s a lot of work to fight almost a century of prejudice and irresponsible abuse, especially when it’s sanctioned from the top. If you don’t give a hoot about intellectual honesty or academic freedom, the Oakstone Farm experience will not be the kind you’re expecting. Good luck anyway, but don’t take your hostilities out on me; I’m not in your ball park. planets ... _ �« ,ir% Our Weekly Reader Dave Dellinger, More Power Than We Know: The People's Movement Toward Democracy (Anchor Press/Doubleday, $3.95, 326 pp.) Dave Dellinger is a political activist; the sixties, even the early seventies, were politically activist times. Today it seems we are cloaked with indifference. There is an aura to those political times which breeds that feeling. In More Power Than I'Ve Know, Dave Dellinger says such feeling is simply the calm before the storm of people moving toward democracy. Dellinger's book is a subjective excursion into a not too many years ago spawned revolutionary causes. The Yippies, The Panther-21, the Chicago-7, the Weatherpeople, are given a great deal of space as Dellinger relates their skirmishes with government injustices. It is a subjective account, but one can still gather objective and empirical facts of government atrocity. Dellinger's account is enough to shock even a conservative like myself. What disturbs me is not the flap-jawing of activist types, nor the fact that branches of government can affect society-at-large by brutally wielding an unsound law, but what federal judge in the district both knowledgeable in the law and shrewd enough to handle such a prominent case." Dellinger believes the case's prosecuting attorney, in effect, conspired with Judge Hoffman during the process of jury selection and so justice system. The destroyed the adversary government's evidence, he proposes, was so miniscule that it was even unfair to hold the trial which ensued. (Dellinger fails to point out that a government prosecutor has the right, under law, to prosecute whomever he so wishes, regardless of how small the evidence may be.) But no matter: justice is Dellinger's section dealing with realm that by Randi Schnur Arts Editor The year is 1199, or thereabouts. The Crusades are long past, and Richard the Lionhearted, a rather over-enthusiastic conqueror who seems to believe that the perpetuation of his legend depends upon the slaughtering of everyone in sight, whether or not he can come up with a reason, has finally met up with the wrong end of an arrow himself. As there are no more causes left to fight for in the vicinity of Richard's camp, and since he is fed up with taking orders from other men anyway, Robin Hood informs Little John, his constant companion, that a 20-year absence from Sherwood Forest is quite enough. It is time to go home The decades have not been kind to the Merry Band, though. The old tree under which they lived has rotted, and although Will Scarlett and Friar Tuck are still around, their idealism has rotted as well the only poor they can afford to steel for are themselves. ("While I take confession, he takes the horses," the good friar laughs contentedly.) The Sheriff of Nottingham has grown mellow and wise wise enough, in fact, to set traps that work. - - Curse of the forest And Marian no longer exists. As Mother Janet, the abess of the local nunnery ("My confessions were the envy of the convent!"), she has worked hard to suppress all remnants of the old fighting spirit. Although an occasional, incongruous curse still escapes to remind her of the freedom of the forest, she has succeeded in forcing most memories of the long-ago lover who never even said goodbye out behond the convent's heavy walls. But the legend of Robin Hood is still alive, and there are dozens of awed followers running through the forest, looking for the old tree and awaiting their chance to defend it. In Robin and Marian, director Richard Lester takes an look at the life and death of a legend who has affectionately outlived his usefulness and the hopelessness of his struggle with that fact. The trio of apples which appears first and last in the film, aging from green immaturity to shrivelled petrification within the space of a single frame, is a somewhat paradoxical metaphor for both the obsolete hero art® the timeless ballads which esaggerated and immortalized his worth; while the songs and stories caught and froze Robin’s moment in history, solidifying the ideals he represented for all time, the heroism they celebrated became trapped in its own self-destructive compulsiveness, finally drying and crumbling under the weight of his over=invlated expectations. Boyish bravado ■ Robin's role demands a lot from its actor: he is an odd mixture of that cynicism Snd naivete, full of the kind of swashbuckling bravado its but presence, he senses death wherever compels him to challenge unable to realize that death must some day win thp fight. Contradictions abound, but their significance always eludes him; devoting the first half of his life to the blind defiance of authority, he spends its next 20 years in equally thoughtless obedience, condoning admitted atrocities because the madman who orders them is, after all, his friend and his king. Sean Connery is excellent at this sort of thing; just as in his wonderful The Man Who Would Be King (released only a irrepressible few months earlier), his worldliness is mixed with an idealism which dictates both his rise tp glory and his inescapable doom. John There is an excess of sentimentality flooding this forest Barry's music is often right out of Marlboro Country, and Audrey Hepburn's love-stricken Marian contrives an ending which, though perhaps inevitable, is certainly improbable. But its pervasive good humor and marvelously witty performances by such as Nicol surprisingly respectful Williamson (Little John), Robert Shaw (the Sheriff), and Connery go far toward stemming its flow. — The gorgeous scenery is worth the price of admission in itself, but it needn't be. Although a minor effort from the director of A Hard Day's Night (indeed, virtually all Lester's work since that high-water mark of the sicties, up to and including his two-volume Three Musketeers, has seemed awfully insignificant in comparison), Robin and Marian, now on view at the Holiday and Boulevard Mall Theatres, contains enough little insights and other small joys to make it well worth anyone's two hours. S3 95 THAN \VE KNOW: shocks is the possibility that a "government of the people" can so easily turn against elements within a society which embrace different ideologies. Dellinger takes joy in describing a movement that fought for civil rights and tried to stop the war. But as he proceeds, he defeats his own arguments by using contradictory information. Take, for instance, THE PFjOFIJTS MOVEMENT TCAVARD DEMOCRACY DAVE DELLINGER media relations in an age of unrest, protest and revolution; Dellinger argues at one point that a New York Times year-end account on South Vietnam in the sixties presents the facts in a way which misleads the reader, revealing the political bias of the writer. But later in the book he wholeheartedly praises the media for sympathetically relating the story of the Chicago 7; without the media's help, he says, many perhaps of the defendants would still be in jail they would enver get out alive. Further on, Delfinger perhaps they wouls never get out alive. Further on, Dellinger argues that the media became "existentially involved beyond its normal wont" during the 1968 Democratic convention in Chicago since they sided with the government. Dellinger's fallacy should be obvious: Whenever the views of the media side with his ideology, he approves; whenever they do not, the same media become the objects of his criticism. — Amid all its subjectivity. More Power Than We it deals with the American judicial system. Dellinger says the courts maintained his case study being only a facade of impartiality Judge Julius Hoffman's court in the Chicago-7 trial. He quotes an informed source who claims that Hoffman "was chosen because he was the only Know shines when — - gh. at least in regard to the Chicago case Portions of More Power Than We Know are devoted to "revolutionary" philosophy; in fact, it is a kind of hornbook on methods and goals. Dellinger advocates non-violence, unless violence is necessary. (The "times" and "reasons" for violence are not explained.) He points to a future when capitalism will be abolished and true democracy will rise up. But although Dellinger denies it, the movement seems to be lackadaisical compared to the sixties, making one wonder whether his hope for utopia is very real. But all told. More Power Than We Know is stimulating reading and a worthwhile memoir of the movement and its workings.

The hottest releases this year to date have been the watered down prowess of Peter Frampton on Live, the infinite possibilities of guitar acrobat Nils Lofgren and Boz Scagg's newest release Silk Degrees, a record destined for cult-rave status. On the new side are Epic's premiere releases of two virtual guitar unknowns. One, Les Dudek, former sideman with Boz Scaggs, and technique twin of brother Duane, is a musical force to be reckoned with. This brings us to Lee Ritenour, anal retentive Los Angeles studio hermit with his brand new product. First Course, featuring some of L.A.'s better known musical recluses. From the start there is a chopped cadence of guitar chording which alerts us to the rock steady rhythm section anchored by ex Head-Hunter Harvey Mason. The album is professional and organized to include all the limitation and sophistication of that session demon Tom Scott's horn arrangements and the progressive, encouraging sounds of ex-Mother's keyboard crazy Ian Underwood on synthesizer. First Course has two musical relatives, Kissin' Cousin's, so to peak. The Brecker Bros, reflect the differences of New York City vs. Hollywood in attitude as well as conceptualization. One is also Jeff Beck collaboration Blow by eminded of the George Martin Blow. The closest approximation to something novel is Side One's closer, "Memories Past," which finds Lee back in those expensive suburban guitar studios, practicing a solo classical piece. Skip Drinkwater's production is safe and clear and is well within range of his northeastern attempts with Duke Williams and the Extremes and the James Montgomery Band. If push leads to shove, then overextended guitar-hook riffing leads to quarter-pounder sinus headaches. In small doses, Lee Ritenour's First Course is a pleasant, if not engaging Ip. However, its reliance on common sense white funk deals a crippling blow. Harkening back to Frank Sinatra chasing Von Ryan's Express, as long as he's in the neighborhood maybe Lee Ritenour should stop in on those tireless innovators The Crusaders. Carl Savage Lee Ritenourr,, First Course - Good Rats*, Rat City in Blue (Platinum) The Good Rats, a hot and nasty rock quintet originally from Orange, N.J., gained what little recognition they have from their frequent appearances in numerous local Long Island clubs. Their brand of hard rock, spiced and seasoned with bits of jazz, was well incorporated in their debut album, Tasty. That disc contained a superb tune (one of my favorites) "Tasty," and on "Injun Joe," a fine guitar solo is performed by Micky Marchello. Peppi Marchello, the lead vocalist, sang quite well with his stylishly raunchy voice. On the new album, Rat City in Blue, the Good Rats are swarming in garbage. Alas, another hard rock band turned sour. The Good Rats have much potential, with the likes of super drummer Joe Franco and guitarist John Gatto but on Rat City in Blue• the music coming out is hard rock crap. The tunes are quite commercial with excessive guitar soloing and lyrics that just don't make it. Peppy Marchello, whose pleasantly peppy voice sparked the last album, must have excessively taxed his larynx. His voice has regressed into one raunchy mess. There is one spmi-decent song. "Rat City in Blue" has a nice jazzy touch that almost puts it into an acceptable class. This album is a strong contender for the year's worst disc. The only factor that could possibly save it from this distinct position is its corny but catchy title. To do penance for releasing this album, the Good Rats should munch Doug Alpernn on Some strychnine. 10 MINUTES FROM CAMPUS AT COLVIN EXIT OF YOUNGMANN So.

Frankie Avalon, Venus (De-Lite) One Sunday afternoon when I was seven years old, my older sister and her white-socked friends took me with them to see Frankie Avalon. I guess it was my first live concert. My appraisal, as I watched him sing and flirt with the pubescent pony-tailers, was that he wasn't so hot. I must have been quite an astute kid for now, almost 20 years later and after listening to his latest vocal effort, my opinion hasn't changed. Recording now for De-Lite records and wearing a very wrinkled suit on the front cover, Frankie fakes it through a host of middle-aged muzakal melodies. His- voice is full bodied but his delivery is undynamic (probably as a result of numerous cases of blue-balls from Annette Funicello in all those beach party movies) and each song lapses into repetitive choruses with annoying background vocals. The fully orchestrated musical arrangements are not bad and often employ a disco beat The highlight of the album is undoubtedly an updated version of early hit "Venus" which is done in an easy, rhythmic style. The his vocal effort, though, lacks the urgency that only a teen-aged Frankie could give it. Essentially this album represents the stuff that fills the air on television variety and talk shows no better, no worse. Hank Siegel Lee and (De-Lite) £ this lustful album is Love and Understanding, and portions of it were recorded live at the Rainbow Theatre in London. The opening song, "Love and Understanding," is saying, "people all over the world, it's time for love and understanding, come together!" The back-up groups on the album are called Tomorrow's Edition and Something Sweet. They perform impeccably, especially on the song entitled "Sugar," even the instrumentation can be called heavenly. Kool and the Gang have been through a great change in the last couple years and you it in their music. Robert 'Kool' Bell, his brother Ronald Bell and lead guitarist Claydes X Smith are now devoted Muslims, and in their own melodic way are preaching to you. This was apparent in one of their previous albums entitled Light of Worlds, because four songs on that album had spiritual messages. One of these songs, "Here After*," tells you four things Muslims strive for: knowledge, wisdom, understanding and peace. Even the covers of their last couple of albums have earthy connotations. The album jacket of Love and Understanding has three breath-taking global horizons on it. Tm not saying that Kool and the Gang has completely broken away from their Jungle Boogie syndrome because they still create songs that exist only to make you boogie. They sing "Hollywood Swinging" again on this new album, but it's jazzed up a little since it is performed live in London. My favorite song on this album, "Summer Madness" (also a previous hit) is rearranged beautifully on this album. Ronald Bell - Black Market (Columbia) During the past five years there has been a tremendous surge in the popularity of contemporary jazz. Through this time, Weather Report has been making their own type of music. As you listen to it, you can actually hear them singing with their instruments. The intertwining of Joe Zawinul's synthesizer leads and Wayne Shorter's saxophone solos shows a rapport between two musicians that rarely occurs. the group first germinated when Joe Zawinul, formerly with Cannonball Adderley, and Wayne Shorter of the Miles Davis band, got together to jam. Playing with Czech bassist Miroslav Vitous and drummer Airto Moreiro, things seemed to click. In 1971, Weather Report put out their first album. Since then, they have released five other albums. Through several band member changes, the group still maintains its own space-type jazz sound. This is due to the originators of the group. Shorter and Zawinul, Each of these musicians has won first place for his individual talent in almost every major music magazine popularity contest. It is this nucleus of talent that gives Weather Report its consistency in style and quality. Weather Report, has an angelic touch on the synthesizer; he seems to sensitize your mind. Ronald does a lot of arranging for the group as well as playing tenor sax, alto flute, piano, arp and vocals. Kool and the Gang sing a song called "Universal Sound," which makes you want to dance, but it also has some religious undertones. Every album that Kool and the Gang have ever come out with, has always had one song I don't particularly care for; this album is no exception. "Do It Now," is the song that just doesn't move me in any direction. "Come Together" is the last song on this diversified album, and it's their final message. Kool and the Gang are not just telling the black mass to come together, but are speaking to "people all over the world." Charlene Price The new album, Black Market, shows this consistency. It is an album of deep feelings and emotions. The musicians show a singular talent in being more concerned about the music rather than showing how well they can play. Instead of Mahavishnu Orchestra type finger flying melodies, Zawinul and Shorter only put in the notes that they think will complement and complete the sound. No more, no less. There is never any confusion as to the type of music they intend to play, and as Zawinul is quoted as saying, "We're trying to make music happen for the people. Unless you try to open people's minds, you'll never know what they are like." On two of the tracks on this album, "Black Market" and "Cannonball," the Weather Report band is joined by ex-Mahavishnu Orchestra member Narada Michael Walden. His superb drumming makes • . these two cuts the best on the album. There are two types of bands, the creators and the followers. Weather Report is a creator. They have a distinct sound and style that is own. Their most recent album. Black thoroughly consistent, and the weather this quintet's future is bright and sunmjd'V. truly their Market, is report for Graham II and Tennille, Song of Joy (A&M) Isn't true love wonderful? After looking at and listening to the Captain and Tennille's latest release, you would have to say that that must be what they're trying to get across. Take the titles, for example. What can be said about an album that has such things as "Lonely Night (Angel Face)", "Thank You, Baby" and "Wedding Song (There Is Love)"? And that cover. Toni Tennille looks like she could be quoting the lyrics of one of her compositions; "Smile for me one more time. Let me see the sun shine in your sad little face." In a general way, this is the main point of the whole Captain album. Not surprisingly, most of the affection is exuded by Toni Tennille, for the Captain gives her almost complete control over the entire show. Song of Joy has very few keyboard solos, even though the good Captain is quite adept on his synthesizers, organs and solos, pianos. There are a lot of vocals from Toni — double tapings, triple tapings, choruses and that's one of the problems. Toni Tennille is a professional. Her voice is not would be unrecognizable if it weren't for the vocals. bad; in fact, it's -much better than many of her The Captain tries for some distinctiveness with a few contemporaries. She sings each song with enough synthesizer gimmicks, but they come across energy, but very little feeling; you get the impression sounding contrived and silly. Still, I can't dismiss this album completely. Both that she doesn't have any idea about what she is singing, like Perry Como performing Don McLean's of them were in the Beach Boy's backup band, so "And I Love Her So." This would be fine if she they must have learned something. Obviously, the stuck to songs that didn't require much expression, Captain has, because Song of Joy is admirably but she insists on doing a boogie, blues (sometimes produced. Considering the material, it would have all been very easy to create a sound that was way too with a little bit of gospel) mixture appropriately laundered for AM singing. It is because full or far too sparse. Both of these pitfalls are neatly of this shortcoming that the best thing on this album avoided, resulting'in a very tistenable album. This is a mindless accentuated by its technical sound quality, which is "Going Bananas," is probably instrumental. excellent. (Nothing new for A&M) Now if the Captain and Tennille would only put She does attempt other styles, and ends up sounding like a watered down version of the some more effort into finding material that fits their Carpenters, .Elton John or other AM favorites. On talents, as well as a little more diversity in lyrics, these songs, Tennille's voice is at least tolerable, and they could be a first rate team. However, with sometimes good. It's the lack of personal style that is several hit singles, a hit album and a prospective now painfully noticeable. Instead of following the television series, I doubt that they are going to try.

Love's Labor's Lost will be performed tonight, Saturday, and Sunday nights and next Thursday thru Sunday in the Harriman Theatre Studio, produced by the UB Theatre Department and the Center for Theatre Research. Performances are at 8 p.m. Director Clyde Grigsby, assistant professor in the Theatre Department, chose Love's Labor's Lost because he felt that Shakespeare in general, and this play in particular, is well suited for giving theatre students valuable experience. "It's an ensemble show, not a star vehicle like King Lear or Hamlet" (the cast numbers twenty-seven). "It's light, bright, and springlike. And it's a young play (one of Shakespeare's earliest) about young people." While not really deprecating what he calls "blue jean drama," Grigsby maintains that "an actor requires more control, vocally and physically, in Shakespeare than is sometimes necessary there. If if you're not you're, not honest iri Shakespeare handling your voice and your body very carefully you're going to fail. It's marvelous training for young actors; it teaches discipline." - - through May 2.

They attempt to win their ladies' hearts by letters, gifts, even wooing them disguised as Russians all to the amusement of the ladies at their — foolishness. — Age of innocence With this as his cue, Grigsby has changed the play's period from Elizabethan times to pre-World War America, a time of gazebos, green parklands, and lawn parties. "Elizabethan costuming is just too was aiming for," a feeling heavy for the lightness realized in Gary Cajarella's parklike set and Esther Kling's summery costumes. "It was also the last great age of innocence and the play is naive in many ways." Ray Leslee has contributed a fine, sensitive and tragic score that reflects the amorous, comic moods of the play.

Much Ado About Nothing, with its forays of verbal wit, is especially prefigured in the lord Berowns (John Emmert) and lady Rosaline (Theresa DePaolo). The clown Costard (John Simonetti) is to Grigsby "the first of Shakespeare's great fools." The King of Navarre and Princess of France, played by Kneland Stickles and Marcia Wiesenfeld respectively, are also in the mold of later comic lovers of Shakespeare. But what distinguishes the play above all is the the first of Shakespeare's brilliance of its language and its springlike plays to really, manifest this mood, in itself similar to As You Like It. - ISp instruments: mandolin, pennywhistle, 6-hole flute, and recorder.

I �PL/ny prescriptions To ‘the Editor. For those- of you who frequent local pharmacies, notably PK Drugs near the Boulevard Mall, be extremely vigilant of the medication you are purchasing. On at least three separate occassions, the druggist sold to a friend of mine, medication half the size which was called for in the prescription but at the full size price. In other words, he was charging double the actual price.. When we had finally realized the rip-off, and confronted the manager of the establishment, he offered the ridiculous story that the size we wanted and that which he was giving us, were in nearly identically looking jars and thus it was easy to pull the wrong size from the shelves. BUT THIRTEEN TIMES?!! Even wjien presented with receipts, he went further to offer a ridiculously low refund based on the fact that he did not have in his records one or two of the purchases. In actuality it was found that he had not recorded, six of the purchases. Might there be some New York State Law requiring tjje druggist to keep accurate prescription and refill records? It wasn’t until I had threatened to take the matter to some local authority that he offered what was due. In all, the matter involved the “theft” of close to $60. I personally find the matter extremely distrubing and I don’t plan to merely allow it to slide by. How many other people might he have victimized? I sincerely hope that those who might also be affected by a situation such as this, take measures to place pressure on these dishonest businessmen. Let them understand that they are running the risk of being convicted of criminal theft! Gary Minkowitz No need to panic To the Editor. This is in response to Rick Oechsle’s letter that appeared in the April 9th issue of The Spectrum. of democracy March To the Editor. Jimmy Carter’s wanton use of the term, “ethnic purity,” constitutes a bellicose manifestation of racism. That such a concept possesses a close resemblance to the Hitlerite concept of racial purity is a sad fact whose existence cannot be easily underrated or nonchalantly denied. As such, its appearance not only compels the condemnation, but heightened vigilance of all citizens consciously seeking to align themselves with the cause of American democracy, both as a form of political rule as well as a civilized form of tolerant, social life. A cursory look at American history quickly reveals the following indisputable fact: that there are no ethnic groups whose ethnicity ever has or ever will provide a justifiable criterion for regarding even a one as an alien element intruding upon the confines of American societal life; only a man or set of men once have or still can do something as illict and perversely inhuman as that. For a man such as Mr. Carter one riding on the following the shoestring of a fake image should be made indelibly clear: The future of America, as Harold Laski put it in his American Democracy still lies in those particles of humanity comprising that society’s great melting pot. For out of such diversity there ineluctably forms, what an Arthur Schlesinger termed, a new man American. Sometimes spitting, sometimes cussing, incessantly on the move, and usually activated by the lure of great wealth or promise here is a person who sees no present save an expanding future where all men are equals, and no man a pre-determined superior. Therein lies the source of America’s inexhaustible creativity and unbounded propensity towards maintaining, and if necessary advancing, the cause of popular rule. Consequently, no tyrant, whether of hell or heaven, no economic system, whether it be capitalistic or otherwise, is going to deter or enfeeble that process, that march of democracy, for long. — — , - — David Stive Although some of the issues raised are based on fact, most of his statements are quite invalid. Our budget is not, never has been, and probably never will be as high as $3600. We received $2750, for the full academic year to produce two shows: a difficult task. Because of the nature of the set for A Funny Thing... it was destined to be expensive. One house had to be totally functional, that is, with a balcony that is capable of holding at least two persons at a time. I would like to see Mr. Oechsle stand on a balcony that is constructed with muslin on the usual skeleton frame. This was a necessary expense. As for the two other houses, it was decided that we use plywood as We would be able to use these materials in many future productions. The problem with the contract for our use of Sweet Home High Sphool’s auditorium was not a misunderstanding on our part. Our producer signed a contract stating that the charge would be $S6 for each night of performance, and no charge for rehearsal time. This may sound improbable but when we presented The Music Man in the Fall of ’75 we established a very good reputation with the school district administration. They wanted us back. Sweet Home informed us about two weeks before the scheduled production dates that we would have to pay for rehearsal time and approximated the amount in the neighborhood of $500-$600. As to the removal of the set, this unfortunate blunder was one performed by our stage manager. He assured the Executive Council that he and his crew would strike the set by the appointed date. He was spoken to two days before that date and we learned the following Monday that this hadn’t been done. This is of course inexcusable and I will not attempt to explain it away. We have had insurmountable problems with our Constitution which does not clearly state who can vote for the forthcoming production. We could not change it at the time of our organizational meeting as we had to get the ball rolling for the next Mr. Tursi was told we could procure Shea Theatre in downtown Buffalo if we did a production more in the line of Bye, Bye Birdie. The Executive Council agreed. Shea Theatre and the money from CAC was never procured for the production. The reasons for the “loss” of the theatre are still a mystery to all except for perhaps the director and his “staff.” The cancellation of Bye, Bye Birdie cannot be attributed to financial problems. Panic Theatre has always had financial problems, but has always done a show. I have watched Panic Theatre and have been involved with the group since the Fall of ’72. Panic Theatre members have-always come through: what kept them together was setting up a platform in Goodyear Cafeteria to be used as a stage, sweating together and losing their voices together. Everyone encouraged each other and tried to make everyone else feel important. That is How Panic Theatre lived. The production staff of Bye, Bye Birdie had no inkling of the workings of the group. They didn’t 1 just inform people of their mistakes, but chose intimidation and belittlement as their approach instead. This alienated a few, jncluding a lead and an indispensable pianist. There was a later incident that brought to light the outright anti-Semitism of the choreographer. This sprouted a new growth of dissatisfaction and resentment: one I feel quite justified. I have heard the assistant director Lori McCoy, call people “spineless” for quitting. I would venture to say they are the strongest. They left something that they had worked hard on to preserve their integrity and not smile in the face of this sort of prejudice. I applaud these people with great respect. The remaining people who left the show did so because they realized the irreversible damage that had been done. There was no enthusiasm remaining and this would hurt the quality of the show. The production policy staff’s of “if-you-don’t-like-things —the-way-they-are, the-door-is-open-to-you” developed as it was destined to do. The door was used frequently, and Panic Theatre’s production of Bye, Bye Birdie flew out this same door. production. So, Mr. Oechsle, Bye, Bye Birdie is dead, but The Roar of the Greasepaint was chosen and the Panic Theatre is not. I don’t know what you mean Executive Council began accepting resumes for when you say we once again proved we could not director. We chose Mr. Edward Veneziano. I have no produce a show. We have previously produced eight idea who tojd Mr. Oechsle that we felt that he was shows. Panic Theatre died this semester not because the most qualified but that we decided to choose of many problems, as we have always had our fair someone from our own ranks instead. This is wholly share, but primarily because of the attitude of the untrue. Mr. Oechsle submitted his resume stating he production staff and die unwillingness of the cast to had directed this show twice but soon enough light bow down to this attitude. was shed on the truth; He had student directed it in Mr. Oechsle’s letter was so full of high school and assistant directed it one other time. misinformation that it was astounding. His letter also We could not trust Mr. Oechsle’s word. It was as had at its core the bitterness of not securing the simple as that. position of director. Had he been truly interested in Mr. Oechsle states that the first action df the our group, he would have found room for his director was to change the show. Untrue! Mr. expression in alternate means. I suggest in the future Veneziano withdrew from the University. We then that Mr. Oechsle makes it his business to have his chose Mr. Daniel Tursi as our director.

The Bulls finished with an 8-2 record in the fall, but the team’s top two players have left, so Buffalo is in for what could be a very-rough season. Rich Abbott, who played second Singles for the Bulls in the Randy fall, graduated, and Murphy, Buffalo’s top player and double'es partner, Abbott’s decided to drop out of school. Murphy, however, still remains with the team as an unofficial assistant coach, and according to McClain, has been very helpful in getting the team into shape. Buffalo’s line-up will consist of basically the same people as in the fall, except for Murphy and Abbott. Bill Cole, a junior who played third singles for the Bulls last semester moves up to the number one spot. McClain hinted , r that Cole’s superior concentration may be his biggest asset. Cole also plays a very consistent game, not making any mistakes. Buffalo’s second singles player, Rob Gurbacki, almost beat Cole for the number one slot.

This controversy surfaced in the face of rumors last week over the proposed firings of faculty members in the Department of Speech Work, Sociology, Social Communications and possibly Biology. Almost all of the faculty slated to be cut were either tenured or were under contracts extending well beyond the rumored May 31 firing date. The controversy centers around exactly who will determine what programs and faculty members are to be cut. Executive Vice President Albert Somit told The Spectrum last week, that the Provosts and Deans were instructed to formulate recommendations for cuts which would then be submitted to Robert Fisk, Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs. Fisk was in turn supposed to devise his own set of recommendations and submit them to the President’s office for a final decision. Social Sciences, claimed “he was given specific instructions and specific numbers on a number of different occasions concerning the cutbacks.” Butler, himself, came under attack last week at a meeting of the Social Sciences Faculty for his handling of the retrenchment. With no official decision by President Robert Ketter over specific faculty members that their jobs might be in jeopardy.” Varying criteria Somit and Fisk both claimed that the criteria the Deans and Provosts would use would vary, but would generally be based on the report of the Committee on Budgetary Criteria, published in February. that Both administrators stressed recommendations would be based on departmental programs and not specific faculty members. Asked what percentage each of the seven faculties would receive of the 23 faculty lines scheduled to be cut [see accompanying story], Fisk said he did Departments not consulted Asked what criteria had been used to determine which specific programs and ultimately which faculty were in jeopardy, Butler said “the departments themselves determined what areas would be cut, either by the chairman or a departmental committee.” Sociology Chairwoman However, Adeline Levine, stated that neither she nor anyone else in her department had been consulted prior to an' April Sth meeting in which Butler informed her that four Sociology faculty would be cut. In a telephone interview Monday, Butler reversed his previous statements, claiming that “no specific names were mentioned at that April Sth meeting.” Sources within the administration speculated that initial retrenchment procedures may have been carried out as a “trial balloon” or a testing of University opinion. This would explain much of the confusion and irregularities surrounding determination of which faculty to lay off. They also cited that since departmental programs, not specific faculty, are being cut, tenured professors might be eliminated /?7r M.QDSS if it was decided that their particular fields would no longer be taught within a department. possible. Originally, the specific names of retrenched professors were to be released last week. However, the final decision has been postponed until April 30. Violation of code Sociology Chairwoman Levine claims that the very thought of breaking contract* and firing tenured professors violates an accepted moral code in academia, and threatens the credibility of this University across the country. She speculated that it might be difficult to hire quality professors in the future if there was a chance their contracts could be broken. In view of the controversy, the administration has also apparently reversed itself. Since Dr. Ketter announced, in the April 15 Reporter that all tenured faculty would receive a one-year notice ifthey are to be retrenched and that all non-tenured professors would receive as much time as Behind dosed doors Many faculty members are still unsatisfied with the postponement. Levine claims that the entire retrenchment process has been carried out behind closed doors with no opportunity for faculty date, she said she has not To participation. received any reasons why her department was singled out amongst the Social Sciences, especially since the criteria put forth by the Committee on Budgetary Criteria did not apply. She regretted that no one within the administration has provided any rational plan to consider the educational justification for cutting a particular department. Damage of retrenchment is revealed gradually procedures to be used for determining what faculty lines will be cut. is also affected since a Chemistry professor occupies the line in the Office of the Provost. budgetary Temporary positions University Spitzberg claimed it isn’t possible to speak in terms of eliminating collegiate lines since all faculty positions within the Colleges are temporary. However, he explained that faculty loss is unavoidable xlue to salary cuts and the reduction of available courses. In the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Reitan Mathematics, Provost Paul explained that “the decision to eliminate a line is based on whether a faculty member is scheduled to leave, academic value of the line, consideration of budgetary savings possibilities and the internal for reallocation.” Faculty members whose contract has been terminated or tenure has been denied are out of a job. Five faculty lines will be eliminated from the Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics two Biology, one Math, one computer science, and one in the Office of the Provost. In reality, three Biology positions are being cut because a professor of Molecular Cell Biology actually occupies the Math line. The Chemistry Department Although no final decision has been made by this Faculty on the elimination of N.T.P. and civil service lines, Reitam believes only a few civil service jobs will be by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer As the specific effects of the are gradually revealed, personnel are first beginning to consequences for each of their cuts assess the respective departments. Of the 143 full-time lines slated to be 23 faculty eliminated, and 120 non-teaching professional (NTP) and civil service spots will have to go. Additionally, the Colleges will have to drop almost 50 courses next year as a result of a $25,000 budget cut. “The effects of the budget cuts will be severe enough to actually change the nature of this University,” said Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberb. “It is critical that the cuts reflect a sensitivity of what a large university should do for the next 100 years.” Due to internal flexibility, persons occupying N.T.P. and civil service positions scheduled for elimination can be placed in other departments. However, fhe decision involving movement of faculty members is more complex and difficult to achieve. Apparent confusion exists on the < - cut. The Faculty of Arts and Letters has gradually tightened its belt over the past year according to Associate Provost Murray For Schwartz. this reason, and the unavailability of statistics, Schwartz'was unable to ascertain the degree of faculty and course reductions. A loss of courses has occurred primarily in the pre-major area, he explained, and the greatest number of reductions occurred last summer. He expects faculty moral to suffer as a result of budgetary problems, leading to an increased susceptibility of faculty to leave the University. been Besides faculty, there have in teaching assistant and reductions graduate assistant lines and a 10 percent decrease in instructional resources, which non-instructional people and includes support money. �Attica inmates n r Loan repayment agreement r Sue guards tor use oi mace i by Dana Dubbs Staff Writer Spectrum Two inmates of the Attica Correctional Facility are preparing a lawsuit against some of the prison guards for their excessive use of mace while on duty. The inmates are suing for damages as well as for an injunction to bar further activity of this sort. The lawsuit is the result of two separate March incidents in which inmates housed in “the box” were allegedly maced by guards for “no reason.” “The Box” is the segregation unit of the prison and is composed of four wings. Inmates confined here are locked in 23 hours a day, according to Bill Mastrolio, attorney for the inmates. Mastrolio works with the Prisoners Legal Assistance ■ Program which is run by the Legal Aid Clinic here. Attorneys working with this program represent various inmates at Attica. They frequently visit the prison, often two or three times a week. Getting even In a telephone interview with The Spectrum, Mastrolio charged “summary punishment” in describing the macing incidents which took place in March. “Allegedly an inmated did something to which the guard has decided to get even for. Usually, the guard will write him up or pay another inmate to settle the score. The inmate is not afforded a hearing. Thus, there is a total lack of due process for the inmate.” He characterized the role of the guard as “judge, jury, and Congress approves added CETA funds City t'dilor Western New York residents who work for the city and county governments under the Comprehensive Employment and Training Act (CETA) received unexpected good news this week, as Congress passed a bill providing $10 million in additional funds to support the programs here until January. Almost 1 700 CETA workers who work for the city expected to be laid off from May 26 until July I, but they will now be able to work straight through the rest of the year. The county workers were laid off severaj weeks ago, and were not given any prospective date for their return to the payroll. Seven hundred of them will now be returning to their jobs, thus alleviating some severe manpower problems which had arisen in county operations. The most drastic improvement will take place at Erie Community College-South, which lost two-thirds of its janitorial staff when the CETA funds ran out, and was in danger of being closed by the-Erie County Health Department because of the hazardous health conditions that resulted. City in a bind In the city, which has fallen upon hard financial times, the CETA workers have been filling key roles in many departments for some time, and their loss would have thrown many of them into tremendous disarray. The Department of Human Resources and the Department of Recreation, in particular, have come to rely upon the CETA workers to implement their programs, and they would have had to cut back some of their operations, had the cuts gone through. Other areas where CETA workers are employed are the City Court and the offices of the members of the Common Council. CETA was begun in the early 1970’s as a program whose purpose was to fight unemployment through federal funding of jobs in conjunction with local governments. Since that time, Buffalo’s unemployment rate has climbed to 14 percent, and has stayed there. The CETA program has since been refunded several times. Buffalo Mayor Stanley Makowski has asked all his department heads to try and prune their budgets by 20 percent this year, and if they are to come anywhere close to this, CETA funds are essential. A growing number of CETA workers, and some of their comrades on the city payroll, have come to believe that the city government needs the CETA funds to get by. The Division for the Aging in the Department of Human Resources, for example, depends largely upon CETA workers to care for its “clients,” many of whom are unable to support themselves and are unaware of the benefits that are available to them, such as food stamps. These people would be among the ones who would suffer if the city were unable to keep its programs due to a lack of funds. 831-4113. Second class postage paid at Buffalo,.New York.

As a result of February I have lost the gassed being of my left eye.” vision complete This vision loss was temporary. Mastrolio visited Lord after the alleged incident took place and said the entire left side of Lord’s face was “severely burned.” The lawsuit, which is before District Court Judge John Curtin, is expected to take about one year to prepare so that potential witnesses may be located and interviewed.

Telephone: 1216) executioner.” Five years ago, the tear-gassing of inmates was a more frequent practice. Of the two, mace is the more harmful. Tear gas is “momentarily debilitating” whereas mace “irritates and burns.” No room to visit Aside from the use of mace on inmates, there are other sources of possible lawsuits at Attica. Inmates have often complained that the visiting room is severely overcrowded and “visitors (are constantly] hassled.” Mastrolio said. He added that harassment of visitors by the guards is seen as “an attack upon the inmate’s manhood." Another major complaint is the transferring of inmates from medium-security facilities to maximum-security prisons. There are no hearings held prior to transferring and thus, the inmate is not afforded due process. These and other complaints are currently being investigated by the Prisoners Legal Assistance Program. by Pat Quinlivan APRIL 23-35 FRI., SAT., SUN. SHOWS AT 9 A 12 P.M.

According to a 1974 survey taken over a seven-month period, more than 75 percent of the calls for emergency medical aid were responded to by Campus Security in under five minutes. Campagna said that out of the 21 cases requiring an ambulance reported by the survey, most were for mental health problems and thus were not absolute emergencies. Presently, there are nine schools in New York State with student volunteer-manned ambulance services, including one at the State University College at Buffalo. It operates with one paid student director and forty volunteers. Anyone who works on the Buffalo State ambulance must have completed an eight-hour American Red Cross Multi-Media First Air course.

The ambulance is a member of Erie County’s Medical Emergency Radio System (MERS), so it can communicate with any emergency room in the Buffalo area. As soon as the patient is in the ambulance, communication is begun with the hospital. This is especially important in an emergency situation because the hospital can have the proper facilities waiting. Stony Brook Squad SUNY at Stony Brook has the oldest and one of the largest volunteer rescue programs. An executive board handles all administrative duties fot the 130 member corps. On the Stony Brook campus there are about three calls for service a day, Program Vice President Wayne Bernstein said. The service is funded by Student Polity (the student government) at a yearly cost of about $15,000. All training courses are given on campus by the Stony Brook Corps. The first step is the 8-hour multi-media first aid course. This is followed by a 25-hour standard first aid course, then a 50-hour advanced first aid course and a Cardio-pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) course. After completing these courses the member is then eligible for EMT training. About 60 members of the Corps have completed the EMT course. The Ambulance Corps at Brook owns five Stoney emergency vehicles, two fully equipped ambulances and three transport vehicles. On a normal shift there are five members involved: transporter, dispatcher, driver, attendant and crew chief. Oswego, too The service is in operation all year, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, closing only when classes are not in session. The average arrival time is under three minutes, where the average Suffolk County arrival time is 8.4, Bernstein said.

Increase in cheating leads to tight security Some day the price of admission to a medical or law (CPS) aptitude test may be attaching the arms of the prospective school doctors or lawyers to a polygraph machine and questioning them closely. Are you really (name of applicant)? Are these statements about yourself on this application form true? Have you ever attempted to falsify the records you have submitted to us? Already administrators of the Law School Admissions Tests (LSAT) have begun to thumbprint applicants who take the test instead of asking for a driver’s license or other photo-bearing identification as they had in the past. The Medical Schools Association has asked candidates for the Medical College Admissions Test (MCAT) to send photographs when they register for the exam and these are forwarded to the test centers where proctors screen candidates when they arrive. The increasingly stringent security applied to professional school entrance exams is partly the result of a new wave of cheaters who are enrolling in top graduate schools with the help of falsified documents and hired exam-takers. Recently a few big cases have come to light and professional school administrators assume they are only the tip of the iceburg. - Commentary For marijuana reform, the students must act right now least one full-time lobbyist for marijuana reform. The other is the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML). NYPIRG supports decriminalizing possession, use and sale of two ounces or less of marijuana. Two ounces or less should be decriminalized because marijuana is normally bought an ounce at a time. When a person buys an ounce, often times he still has some left over from a previous purchase. Occasional users would still be arrested for possession of slightly over one ounce and receive a criminal penalty. NYPIRG also believes sale of small amounts should be decriminalized because of the present definition of “sale.” Legally, “sale,” still means transfer of any amount, regardless of whether money is involved. Today, a person passing a joint can find himself arrested for “sale,” an automatic Class C felony, punishable by one to fifteen years by Bob Voorhis Special to The Spectrum In Albany, there is a major battle over the decriminalizing possession, use and sale of small quantities of marijuana. Directly after Gov. Carey’s proposal to decriminalize possession and sale of two ounces of marijuana, mail ran 80 to one against. (Surprisingly enough, this comes only months after a state-wide poll showed a majority of New Yorkers support such a change.) At least a dozen New York state senators publically oppose any form of decriminalization. Although it is very possible that some form of decriminalization law can pass this year, these recent developments might cancel passage of a bill which begins to deal with this long standing perversion of justice. Paradoxically, when an opportunity to repeal one of the most unjustifiably harsh marijuana laws in imprisonment.

The team was caught when the man, Spiro Pavlovich 111, bragged to some lawyers who were interviewing him for a summer job. Without his boasting, the two Pavlovichs may never have been found out. Expertly forged transcripts are difficult to spot in the mass of applications which deluge professional schools. Inside help is not unheard of. In February, the president of Brooklyn College acknowledged that 1 2 employees of the school’s registrar’s office had been implicated in transcript-doctoring “to improve their own academic records or those of friends and relatives.” Another case involving heavy touching-up of a student’s official transcript was decided by a Circuit Court of Virginia in February. The student, Harold S. Blumenthal, was convicted of forging and passing a falsified transcript after investigators found that he had overstated his grades, listed himself as a summa cum laude graduate and forged the registrar’s signature on the transcript he submitted to the medical school’s association. — — Vulnerable Tests administered by the Educational Testing Service (ETS) are also increasingly vulnerable to cheaters as anxious candidates stop at less and less to win those few precious places in top professional schools. The ETS has reached the point where it must aggressively police the people who take the tests and investigate in cases where cheating seems likely. Suspicions about test cheating are usually triggered when a student receives a test score much better than previous scores or out of line with his academic record. ETS pulls what it calls “large score gain rosters” scores exceeding earlier ones by 150 points or more from its computers, investigates some 300 of the 13,600 LSAT’s that fall into this category, and eventually cancels some 24 scores. But policing in the delicate business of competing for success has brought legal trouble both to the ETS and the Association of American Medical Colleges which has sometimes informed medical schools that an applicant’s MCAT score is under investigation. In a case still pending in federal court, a graduate of the University of California at Berkeley Law School is suing the HTS for cancelling the scbre on her third LSAT after handwriting experts had testified that she had not taken the test. ETS notified the Berkeley school that her test score was no longer considered valid but after consulting an expert of their own, law school officials decided to admit her anyway. The student has since graduated from law school but the case still sits awaiting action in a Boston court. - — Would you like to live in a residential community centered on health studies and human services?

Page seven �'f Editorial Cost vs. ■' I-'l 'f need While the proposed inter-campus rescue service here could save students precious time and money in the event of a medical emergency, the initial $60,000 needed to start an ambulance corps puts the project way beyond an affordable limit. Two years ago, when the feasibility of a University ambulance was first investigated, it was found that $12,000 to get the project investment would be an adequate underway. It is hard to believe that since then, the necessary costs have quintupled when the apparent need for such a service has surely not increased five fold as well In fact, a preliminary study conducted by the Sub Board Health Care Division has not proven that an ambulance top priority for student funds which are system should barely able to support already-existing services.

If every student and his/her parents wrote to their legislators, there might be a supplemental budget. Every staff member should also write to their legislators. It is good to remind the “folks” in Albany that they will soon be up for re-election and that public higher education in New York State deserves their support. Every segment of the University suffers when the State refuses to support the University. The graduate students due to reduction in the number of assistantships and reduction or elimination of tuition waivers, SUS and tuition costs, are very hard TAP plus an increase hit by the cutbacks. I urge The Spectrum to publish the lists of: a) Assemblymen and their districts, b) State senators and their districts, and c) memberships of key committees concerned with budget matters and higher education. Then I urge everyone to write to their legislators. Also, express your anger directly to the Governor by writing him. In other state schools, the Student Government wrote directly to the parents of students, requesting that the parents write to their legislators. I urge both the SA and the GSA to do this; contact parents and start a writing campaign. Ellen Nestle Editor's note: Cheek our legislative spread in today’s issue. York State.

Most teams would relish the To the Editor. reading your predictions Goal of Zionism To the Editor months, the Arab Union has In recent attempted t6 disseminate a distorted view of Zionism upon the world. Since the morally bankrupt United Nations has fallen into the hands of an Arab-Communist-Thirdworld Block, it can no longer be relied upon as an impartial, non-aligned body. These events make it all the more imperative to state clearly the true goals of Zionism. Zionism is a movement whose aim if is to return the dispersed Jews of the world to their ancestral home, the Land of Israel. Though this definition is simplistic, the movement itself has several facets, some of which have been particularly adhered to by various Jewish groups. Religious Jews seek a certain sense of spiritual fulfillment which is attainable only in the Holy Land. Since time immemorial the words “Next year in Jerusalem” have been uttered during the Passover service. The political Zionist, on the other hand, attempts to sustain an independent, autonomous Jewish State on the same site where Jews last tasted the fruits of true freedom some two thousand years ago. There are practical Zionists as well, whose ideal it is to make productive and flourish the land once occupied by a prosperous Jewish civilization that had been forced to flee. Despite the degree to which varying aspects of Zionism are stressed by different proponents, the basic foundation supported by all is a return to the Land. These being the facts, it is a perversion of the truth to equate Zionism with racism. Regardless of the present political situation in the Middle Last and one’s views concerning its etiology, it is absurd to malign and distort the goals of a most noble and justifiable movement. for the upcoming After baseball season I agreed with some of your •statements but some are very hard to fathom. How can you say the Orioles are the favorites in the AL East? The Orioloes remedied nothing when the got Reggie Jackson and Ken Holtzman. What the Orioles need is bullpen help, not two unpredictable discontents. Look at what Jackson has already done to the Orioles. Jim Palmer is criticizing Jackson for not playing and what will happen when he does. Is he really the great player you contend? He has never hit .300 or had 200 hits in a season. He has led the league in strikeouts for I don’t know how many seasons and has even led" AL outfielders in errors for a couple of seasons. He has never stolen 30 bases. As for Holtzman, he has never won 20 games and without that great Oakland bullpen behind him he may not even win the 18 games he did last year. Certainly Grant Jackson is no Rollie Fingers. In giving up Mike Torrez they gave up a 20 game winner that pitched more complete games than Holtzman did in ’75. As for Don Baylor, he missed becoming one of the handful of players to hit 30 homeruns and steal->30 bases in the same season by only four homers. He came into his own last year and will be a star for years to come. He has the potential to win the triple crown some day. In giving up Paul Mitchell they gave up a potential young starter who should start immediately in Oakland. The question is whether the Orioles can match up with the Red Sox. Why should anyone want improvement of Fred Lynn and Jim Rice. Surely their '75 contributions were more than enough. The Orioles outfield is no match defensively for Rice, Lynn, and Dwight Evans. Sure Luis Tiant is aging but Mike Cuellar will soon be 3 l Nobody on the Orioles can match Carlton Fisk’s catching. Defensively. Mark Belanger is the winner over Rick Burleson at shortstop but Burleson is the far better hitter. Perhaps Bobby ('.rich has no peer at second base but 1 just cannot understand why you label the Orioles the favorites. Perhaps even more unbelievable are the labels placed-on the Cleveland Indians. Cleveland is one of ). thought of having Bell as their third baseman. At short is Frank Duffy who can field with anybody. Duane Kuiper at second hit .292 as a rookie last year. Boog Powell is an underrated first baseman and proved he can still hit by hitting 27 homeruns and batting .297 last year. As for their pitching, ask anyone in Cleveland and they will tell you that Dennis Eckersley is a star at the age of 21. Eric Raich, Jim Kern, and Rick Waits should follow. Might I remind you that Fritz Peterson was 14-8 last Rick Manning is one of the best young outfielders in baseball. George Hendrick can still supply power. The Indians won’t make the top but they are certainly not a blah team. Over in the NL your most glaring error was in the NL West. Cincinnati should dominate, but will they? Last year everyone played to their potential and no one had a bad year. Will George Foster have another solid year? What happens if Johnny Bench slumps like he did in ’71 resulting in a fourth place finish for the Reds? Can young phenomenons Rawly Eastwick and Will McEnaney reproduce their banner seasons of ’75? What I am saying is off years Jjy a couple of players could bring the Reds down to everyone else. You are right in saying the Giants should be one of the top teams but claiming that the Braves are one of the worst teams is abjurd. The starting rotation of Andy Messersmith, Phil Niekro, Carl Morton, and Roger Moret is indeed impressive. Even without Messersmith they could throw in Dick Ruthven and still survive admirably. In the outfield Rowland Office, a .290 hitter last year, is flanked by a solid ballplayer in Ken Henderson and Jim Wynn should bring down the fences in miniscule Atlanta Stadium. Darrell Evans at first can hitt’em out of anywhere. Darrell Chaney is solid at short and Jerry Royster at third is a sure star someday. The Braves certainly have a lot of talent and if everyone plays up to their potential they could cause a lot of excitement in the NL West. year. As for the rest of your predictions, your reasoning looks pretty sound. If not for the oversights I have mentioned the article might have been excellent. Perhaps in the future you should look at points other than the obvious. the rising clubs with many exciting young players.

As those of most of the western Sino observers. Cohen’s analysis about the current Chinese political and cultural revolutionary phenomena has been very superficial and misleading. The western observers have often analysed the Chinese affairs in turn of their expectations, and neglected those of the are, in fact, the actual and vital Chinese Very importantly, the ouster of history Teng Hsiao Peng has come in no surprise, if we have had a careful analysis of the last 50 years of the Chinese history. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, the Chinese people have determined to become socialists as one can easily anticipate that the days of capitalists are numbered because of the greater unavailability of earth’s natural resources and cheap human labor. The determination made by the Chinese people has been guided by Marxism and Leninism, and further implemented by Mao Tse-tung Thought. As the Chinese history reveals, Marxism, Leninism and Mao Tse-tung Thought have never failed to serve the needs of the Chinese people. The recent Prime Ministership change in China has undoubtedly further strengthened the above determination. It is, therefore, a very healthy move, and not, however, a pathological one as most of us may have thought so in the West. Mong Heng Tan, Treasurer Graduate Student Association Rebuttal To Ihc Til 11or Since my letter appeared in your Guest Opinion column of 4/5/76 there have been questions asked and accusations leveled at hunting and myself. I would like to answer these questions and attempt to defend myself and hunting against these accusations. Ms. Eckert seems to have misunderstood what I said about hunters paying for conservation. 1 also realize that “we do not pay for the privilege of expressing our opinions in this country.” What I meant was how could Mr. Knaster justifiably blast hunters as being detrimental to conservation efforts. They contribute most of the money to conservation programs through license fees and taxes, and unfortunately, conservation programs cost money. If hunting were abolished, where would this $70 million come from? If Ms. Eckert interpreted it differently than I am sorry for not stating this more clearly. I also agree with her that relocation of animals to a less populated area does work in some cases. However, I would not consider it feasible to capture and relocate a large percentage of the 25,000 bucks taken last hunting season in New York State. Properly regulated hunting seemed to be the best answer to controlling the excess population of deer. In response to Ms. Kckert’s question, no I would not chooose to kill the starving hoards in Calcutta. Would you choose to trap and relocate them, Ms. Lckert? Yes, Ms. Eckert, you are right when you infer that I enjoy hunting, and no Ms. Schifren, there is not a contradiction between myself being a hunter, but not a sadist. The problem seems to be that too many people believe that hunting and killing are synonomous. When I hunt it is not because I have a desire to go out and kill something. In fact, I often do go out “armed only with binoculars,” quite often during non-hunting seasons, which constitute about 8 months out of the year. If I wanted to satisfy a “desire to kill” I could be always out in the fields blasting away at anything that moves. This I would never do. I have too great of a respect for wildlife and nature to destroy it. I do not consider the life of any animal I may take while hunting “wasted.” I clean and eat them, and men have been doing just that since the dawn of time. bring home what game I get and Robert Dowrey Wednesday, 21 April 1976 .

It is our conviction that academic freedom has secured in the United States. At times this has been blatantly demonstrated by this dismissal of outstanding scholars because of their visible political stands in opposition to the policies ot those in power. But more frequently academic freedom is challenged on a less obvious level; it is attacked within the departments of the University. Scholars in such areas as Marxism, Existentialism, and themselves with Phenomenology have aligned of of the mainstream traditions critical Anglo-American thought and have been denied the opportunity to pursue their interests because it is claimed that the quality of their work falls below acceptable standards. However, when the criteria for such judgements are. examined, we find that they do not belong to the critical traditions these people represent but to the mainstream of American thought. Those in the empiricist Anglo-American tradition often assume, out of an ignorance of other traditions, that their theoretical framework is the only legitimate framework; they forget or never come to realize that the Anglo-American school not been represents only a small fraction of existing ideologies and, that in much of Europe and Asia Marxism has hegemony. They confuse standards of being a good Anglo-American scholar with universal standards of competence. Clearly under such circumstances it is impossible to generate serious critical challenges to prevailing theoretical positions within the American university. Dr. James Lawler has published two books and numerous articles in journals internationally respected and has received unanimous support for tenure within the Philosophy. Department among those faculty members and students who have specialized in Marxism, Phenomenology and Existentialism. The most important assessment of the quality of Dr. Lawler’s work is from these people and for this reason we strongly urge a favorable decision on Dr. Lawler’s tenure case. We, the undersigned, affirm the necessity and importance of teaching Marxism, Phenomenology and Existenentialism at the university in order to insure a well-rounded educational system and the granting of tenure to Dr. Lawler to promote that end.

The position of the Judaic Studies Department was discussed in the April 8, 1976 issue of ART As reported. Professor Silverman should have been up for tenure review this year, 1975-1976; not last. Professor Silverman, having been granted another tenure review, also filed a grievance claiming he should be hired for one more year regardless of the tenure decision as 1976-1977 would be a severance year. On Friday, April 9, 1976, the administration accepted Professor Silverman’s grievance thus extending his stay and insuring the existence of the Judaic Studies Department for at least one more year. Debbie Richards Editor of A RI No friend of mine Now that budget cuts are an integral part of our vocabulary, let’s get down to specifics. What will be cut? A graduate assistant here or a department there? If we had to predict, we would put our money on the departments that the interim report suggested be either eliminated .or crippled. Combine this with the administration’s condescending attitude toward the social sciences and anyone can make a list of departments whose days are numbered. Social Work was our first casualty. The administration managed to dump the undergraduate program and now they have sliced a large percentage of the graduate faculty. We always thought that the University is responsible to the community at large. A large percentage of the social workers in the Buffalo area were educated at this University. If the school of Social Work is rendered ineffective by severe cutbacks, how can this University claim any sort of sensitivity to community needs? The cutbacks in this department also gives the impression that social workers are not needed. I guess all those classified ads calling for MSW (Master of Social Work) degrees really Wanted biologists or chemists. of availability implying that not employment should be a criteria for cuts, we’re just searching for some kind of logical criteria that the University is using to make these cuts. We’re not sure there is one. Does the administration really care about the budget cuts? We’re willing to say no for two reasons: 1. How many people in Hayes Hall will lose their jobs? 2. The cuts have given the administration a good excuse to eliminate departments which they wanted to eliminate anyway. It’s the old soft science vs. hard science debate. We would like to end this letter with some questions to the administration that we expect to be answered without the usual rhetoric. 1. What are your specific justifications for cutting the Social Work faculty? 2. More generally, why cut one department and administration publish for cutting certain departments? The interim report’s discussion of their not another? Why doesn’t the specific list of criteria a criteria was, at best, vague. 3. Is this year the tip of the iceberg? That is, does the administration already know which departments will be severely cut next year? We’re Elaine and Larry Meyerson To the Editor. 1 wish to congratulate Clem Colucci on his fine column, “Outside Looking In,” of April 14. It was well done. However, there is one point on which Mr. Colucci was slightly in error. He referred to a phone conversation between Bert Black and my roommate in which he claimed that Bert Black had phoned me. This, I am proud to say, is a mistake. The phone call that Black made was to a friend of mine. Both my roommate and I were visiting this friend who is an employee of that minor league hack organization known as IRC. Black was calling in reference to some matter concerning IRCB, and when my roommate found out that it was Black on I he phone, he grabbed the receiver and demanded to know why Black is a hack.

The dismissal of four faculty members, now or the future, would represent a drastic loss ot in substantive areas and expertise which would seriously impair, if not ' destroy, instructional effectiveness within (he department as well as existing interdepartmental courses and programs. The events of the past few years have already taxed departmental resources to the fullest.

Further reduction of faculty would also affect Masters of Social Sciences Program and departments of Political Science, Fducation and C mmunication who partially depend upon the Sociology Department for courses in research methods and Statistics as well as Interdisciplinary diversity.

While many of these courses will be eliminated, thereby damaging the quality of our program, other courses are crucial and must continue to be offered: Without graduate courses such as Methods of Research and Contemporary Theory, basic degree requirements could not be fulfilled. Other areas such as Sociology of Law, Sociology of Mass Communication and Medical Sociology will be seriously hampered. It would also mean that required courses necessary for undergraduate majors would not be available, and seems inevitable that graduate students would be called upon to absorb some of this responsibility. Besides violating the departmental policy which shuns junior graduate students teaching, it would seriously hamper our education and progress toward our degrees. It seems grossly unfair that . through this arbitrary and capricious administrative decisions, we 'stand to lose thesis advisors, committee members and teachers on such short notice. It negates long range plans or courses of study that have been designed by students with these individual faculty advisors. As a united front of graduate students, we strongly urge the administration to put an end to its present policy of secrecy. We have a right to be made aware of information which has such direct implications for our lives. Decisions and policies which will shape the future of the department should be made known. We expect fairness, openness and rationality in subsequent administrative actions. also Sociology Graduate Students �Halloween cider and donuts or the upstate-downstate split connection whatsoever.

Others can't see any js live in New Vork State and all of us here are students at this same University with similar goals and similar means to achieve those goals. But. are we really all the same? No way! Right here at this University exists possibly the biggest schism between a people since the Civil the War. It’s called Upstate-Downstate Split. Ask a New Yorker where you can find some Beef on Week or ask a Buffalonian where you can buy some bialys and chances are. vou'll starve.

Overall we do a pretty good job. However, sometimes the best of our geocentricity gels a hold of us. How many times have you heard a downstater call an upstater a hick and how many times has an upstater mimicked a Brooklyn accent? Each side expresses a sense of identity and pride which the other to sometimes fails side comprehend. In last year’s The Spectrum there was an ongoing battle for weeks in the Letters to the Editor section between New Yorkers and Buffalonians over which was the best basketball team in the cast. Knick fans would defend- their hometown team to the best while Braves followers asserted their claim to being number one. It went on and The on. The Knicks are better. The Knicks Braves arc better. The Braves are are -belter. better. In the end. it was the Boston Celtics who won out. - - Sure, there are conflicts now and then but look at all the advantages of the split.

We see it in our speech patterns, our dress or even our manners. There’s really nothing wrong with it. Most of its is all in fun with no malice intended. The Upstante-Downstate Split is a natural phenomenon. It's just one of those things. If ever the day comes when understand why upstaters downstaters walk up escalators or why downstaters understand upstaters put the news to music, that’s the the day Upstate-Downstate Split will be bridged.

The meet was a typical Bull performance, in that although Buffalo probably had the better talent in many events, its lack of depth resulted in too many forfeits and giveaways “We were shorthanded.'' explained rookie Bull coach A1 Heinen. “We only have 20 guys. Some of our guys have to go in four or live events, and .that makes it pretty lough.” But lack of depth isn’t the Bulls’ only problem.' Top Bull Eldred Stephens has not fully recovered from a strained arch he developed during the winter season. Although Stephens is still competing and competing well, he has not been dominating the sprinting and jumping events the way he did in his first two jump (he holds the school record), the point differential would have been cut from 18 to 8. A second here and a third there would have put the Bulls ahead, but sheer lack of bodies made that not feasible. Walt Halady was the busiest Bull against the Knights. He won three of the four weight events, and finished third in the javelin besides. Paul KubickT a senior North, transfer from ECC surprised everyone with wins in the 220 and 100, along with a contribution to the 440 relay victory. Stephens wasn’t totally quiet, despite his injury.

He broke a two-year-old standard in the 120 high hurdles with 1:15.4 seasons time.

Buffalo consisicnlly found itself one man short as it look many penalties, which led to power play goals by Oswego. In the first quarter the Bulls played very sloppy defense and Oswego capitalized by scoring four goals. Bultalo was only able to score two goals due to the light defensive play of Oswego. In the second quarter the Bulls defense came alive to hold the Great Lak-rs to just three goals while Buffalo managed to score two themselves. In the second half, Oswego's endurance overcame a weak Buffalo squad, as with temperatures soaring into the SO's. the Bulls seemed to fall apart.

The agenda of Monday’s Council meeting included hospital appointments, discussion of general University admissions policies, the development of Parcel B on the Amherst Campus, academic and budgetary issues, and the student strike and related activities. ,, Thfee student delegates from the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks ;mei Monday afternoon with members of the College Council during a session with President Robert Ketter in his Hayes Hall office. The Coalition, after meeting in Norton Hall and proceeding to Hayes with about* 50 people, demanded that five delegates and a reporter from The Spectrum be allowed to sit in on the meeting. The Council agreed to admit the students, although Executive Vice President Albert Somit refused to allow a reporter into the room. CoaUtwon members had agreed beforehand that delegates should include both men and women and a minority representative. The College Council is comprised of local businessmen, all of whom were appointed by Nelson Governors former Wilson, Malcolm and Rockefeller duties include Their ~ . i No real power Before any Coalition members were permitted access to the meeting, they were rebuffed by Somit, whJ. repeatedly stated that the Council’s sole function was to name buildings on campus and that it had no real power concerning budget cutbacks or ..■*»,«. Coalition members m Hayes lobby before returning to the meeting with the three delegates. Once inside Ketter s office, the delegates presented the Coalition s original seven demands and then asked the Council to urge the SUNY Board of Trustees to reopen its April 29 meeting in New York City to the student public. That meeting was originally scheduled April 28 in Albany as an open session but its date and _ faculty retrenchments. Somit s words were met with derision from some Coalition members. Campus Security allowed the three Coalition delegates to pass through the inner offices of Hayes after Somit conferred with Ketter and other Council members. including Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz. the sole student representative on the CouncJI. Schwartz, who is also the only non-voting member of the Council, met briefly with location were changed, according to one unofficial source, because the Trustees feared student disorder and violence in the capital city.

Treasurer Arthur Lalonde claimed that it was “highly unlikely” there would be any summer activities this year due to mismanagement of funds by one or two UUAB committees. Another Sub Board spokesperson said factors such as rising costs combined with limited budgets contributed to losses within the committees, although he conceded that “some expenditures should not have occurred,” UUAB Director, Dave Benders, said, however, that summer activities line was included in the budget he submitted to Sub Board last yeat but it was cut at the budget heating in July. “It’s not to your advantage to identify anything when submitting a budget,” he said. He also stated that less than one-tenth of SA mandatory student fee money goes into the UUAB budget; thus, a student who pays $7.50 a summer session would only be contributing 75 cents for his/her entertainment. Free events Music Committee Chairman Robbie Scheidlinger added that it was “irresponsible” for Lalonde to say that' there probably would not be summer activities when a final decision has still not been made. He said many of last summer’s activities were conducted for free and he sees no reason why that won’t happen again. Sub Board is also examining UUAB’s budget to see whether extra funds are available. However, at a meeting Monday night the chairpersons of the UUAB film, Dance and Drama, Publicity, and Coffeehouse Committees refused to give aid to the ailing Music Committee, Lalonde reported. Benders and Scheidling did not attend the meeting. Lalonde singled out the Music Committee as the major loser, projecting that by the end of the fiscal year, it might be $9000 in debt. This figure includes the anticipated revenue from the upcoming Bob Marley and the Wailers concert, which he expects will gross only $4000 out of the $14,000 needed to break even. Scheidlinger refuted Lalonde's charges, stating that the Committee was not at fault, and its deficits stemmed from circumstances most of which could not be helped. Less money for more He pointed out that the Committee’s budget was $17,000 less this year than last, while operational costs had gone up considerably. He «aid that even when prices rise, so do people’s “expectations," and there is no way to meet the demand without hurting the budget somewhere. Some losses, he said, came unexpectedly this year. He cited the Toots and the Maytells concert, which was cancelled by the group two weeks before the scheduled date because of illness. Scheidlinger said there is a clause in the contract which allows for cancellation on those grounds as long as the perfomer performs the concert at a future date. Another financially hazardous concert for UUAB was the Funkadelics. which was cosponsored by the Black Student Union (BSU). The Committee had a contract with the Student Association (SA) to contribute $5000 to the show. However, the Committee ended up spending close to $9000 and absorbed a $3000 loss, as a result of close to $700 in damages and “the ineptness of the way the show was run,” Scheidlinger charged. Sell-out needed Scheidlinger also stated that Lalonde’s figures for the Bob Marley concert were given too early to be relied upon. Bob Marley is on his second American tour and will be doing 20 shows. Out of the 17 shows where tickets have already gone on sale, 14 have sold out, he said, adding that if UUAB were also to sell out, it would be less than $2Q00 in debt by the beginning. He claimed that Lalonde had stopped all promotion of the concert, and that $1500 of Lalonde’s projected $9000 loss is specifically for promotional costs. Lalonde countered that he is not stopping promotion for the concert, but rather, is placing it in the hands of the Publicity Committee. Lalonde had at first suggested the concert be cancelled but later changed his minds Former Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell said he signed the contract for the concert because he thought previous concerts would bring in more revenue. When Campbell first okayed the concert, Scheidlinger stated that it would be held in Clark Hall with no opening act. Instead, he learned later, there will be an opening act and the concert is now scheduled for the Century Theater, which raised the cost another $4500. Artistic barriers Scheidlinger responded by stating that he was “getting more and more complaints from people who did not want to use the Fillmore Room and Clark Hall. “There’s no way of having anything of high artistic content there.” Scheidlinger claimed that programming had been lighter this semester as a result of the deficits. He also said that the budgeting part of the committee was not the most important aspect of the job. There is presently a conflict between Sub Board and UUAB officials over who is responsible for watching the finances of the individual committees. Scheidlinger feels that most of the responsibility lies with Sub Board which “has five full-time employees to deal with money and budget restraints, including full-time CPA’s.” Yet, Campbell said he often would not receive any receipts. The chairperson is responsible for knowing the amount of income needed to cover for programs he said. “I don’t think the Treasurer should tell the committee chairperson who to bring in. This is Dave Benders’ job.” He added that the five people working for Sub Board are hired clerical staff and are responsible for all the student governments’ and organizations’ monies. “For us to be telling the committees what to program would be like telling The Spectrum what to write.” �SST foes concerned over damage to ozone by Anthony Schmitz glove from the sun’s ultraviolet Special to The Spectrum rays, an increase in skin cancer (CPS) As the first generation of supersonic transports were granted permission to land in Washington and New York this spring. Secretary of Transportation William Coleman promised during that the 16-month trial period, studies would be made to test the environmental impact of the flights. For nearly two years — of critics the SST's have lambasted the super jets for the possible damage they may do to the earth's ozone layer. Even though 16 months of stratospheric testing are likely to show no substantial change in the ozone layer, that probably won’t be because the SST deserves a clean bill of health.'The reason, according to scientists and researchers exploring damage to the ozone layer, is simple enough. Experts generally agree that about ten years rather than 16 months of studies would be necessary to show any significant change in the depth of the ozone layer. And even then there would be no way to prove what, part of the damage was done by exhausts from SST’s. Danger to ozone Scientific interest in the ozone layer was shaken about two years ago when it was hypothesized that spray can propellants, as. well as the exhaust from SST’s, might break down the layer of ozone that envelops the earth at altitudes of 8 to 30 miles. That - - theory has been confirmed since. partially expected. could be Other consequences could range from a possible increased vulnerability to viruses, disrupted gland functions and eye problems. Studies conducted by the National Academy of Sciences have projected that a fleet of 16 SST’s would probably leave behind enough hydrocarbons and nitrogen oxide in the stratosphere to break down a significant amount of the ozone layer, resulting in 960 new cases of skin cancer each year. Coleman acknowledged the possible danger to the ozone layer in approving the flights, and suggested that studies be conducted during the 16-monlh trial by both the Federal Aviation Administration and a joint study the group of France and Britain two countries allowed to land the new jets in the United States. — Monitoring The results of those studies being were derided before conducted by researchers in the field. Bruce Gregory, executive secretary of an Academy of Sciences group studying the consequences of damage to the ozone layer, said, “tveryone on both sides of this issue is in agreement that in order to know if any unnatural change has taken place in the ozone layer, you'd have to doneut 10 years of monitoring.” At the National Center for Atmospheric Studies in Colorado. Dr. Paul Crut/en also belittled the - With less ozone protecting the suggested atmospheric e.t*- fkJBONS calling it “almost impossible" to collect meaningful monitoring, data on changes that might amount to less than one percent reduction. Crutzen warns, though that even a one percent change could possibly result in 10.000 new cases of skin cancer in the li.S. alone. Crutzen agreed that the six flights daily approved by Coleman would probably have little impact on the ozone layer. But Jie worries that if the current trial pfbves the jets to be economically successful, the fleet might be expanded and approved for landing in more cities. He said with a fleet of several hundred planes, the damage would no longer be unimportant. Possible damage to the biosphere from the SST. doubled with :* fluorocarbons in deodorants and hair sprays, could add up to a dangerous effect. But whether the planes will economically to be prove successful is still up in the air. Airline officials estimate that a round trip ticket on the plane to London from Washington would about 20 cost about SI.400 percent more than standard first class fare. The- planes will use about three times as much fuel as 747's while making about four times as much noise, according to a Federal Aviation Administration environmental impact report. The advantage lies in their speed, averaging about 1000 miles per hour in the three-hour and 20-minute trip,from New York to London. Crutzen questions the trade-off between saving a few hours in travel time and possible environmental damage. “I don’t know if it’s worth it to travel to Europe in a few hours less at the risk of destroying the ozone layer,” he said. Those same questions have prompted by a suit the Environmental Defense Fund to stop the flights and a proposal in the Senate that would band the supersonic jet from the country. The suit is making-its way through the U.S. Court of Appeals, while the Senate proposal was killed in damage done,by — committee. There IS a difference!!! • GMAT • MCAT CPAT . • .

Goodyear or IRC OFFICE-ELLICOTT E347 Richmond �Analysis University is facing its first big retrenchment by Richard Korman Managing Editor The State University at Buffalo only a few short years ago one of the best funded institutions of higher education in the country now finds itself about to undergo its first major retrenchment. This profound change has placed the University in the peculiar positron of growing larger physically (in accordance with a plan formulated in more prosperous times) at the same time its academic program is being trimmed. This paradox is producing institutional strains that may [ ;. have a serious, lasting effect. The problems faced by the State University of New York are being faced by public colleges and universities throughout the country. Like the state that provide their financial support, public higher education now must learn to live with a new economic normality. According to The Chronicle of Higher Education, many states took emergency measures last year to survive the effects of simultaneous inflation and recession. But now last year’s emergency appears, in - — instances, to calling condition adjustments, rather many be a continuing long for term emergency than makeshifts. Part of this University’s current dilemma can be seen in the way this long-term adjustment has been transformed into educational policy. Individual aid Governor Hugh Carey and the state legislature seem to agree that it is better to spend more for aid to individual students, based on their financial need, and to spend less in direct assistance to public and private colleges and universities. Carey’s budget was based on the assumption that the SUNY Board of Trustees would raise Sunshine Law tuition and room rent by $100 each. This was done. Many students who supported the governor in his campaign for that office are painfully aware that he had promised not to raise tuition at state university campuses. The hikes in tuition and room rent are sUppoed to increase revenue for the state system but are also aimed at narrowing the gap between the costs of attending public and private institutions, thus diverting more students to private campuses. The overall reduction for the State University is about 9.1 percent, and enrollments were frozen at all but the recently established • .health. science campuses. In addition, about 1600 positions will have to be abolished. Carey had also proposed a $13.9 million inqfffqe ip tuition assistance funds, about 58'percent of which now goes to students in private institutions. The state’s “Bundy aid” financial aid to private colleges and universities according to the number of was slated for degrees awarded each year a 8.5 percent reduction. It was hoped that this reduction would be offset by a larger Federal from the appropriation an increase that it now government appears will not be made. Sharp reductions in New York City’s support for the City University of New York would result in equal cuts in matching funds included in the state — — — budget. The overall effect of this policy more financial aid to individual students and less will drive the direct institutional support cost of public education higher and higher, and will undoubtedly begin to price students out of the State University system. — — Education policy The entire philosophy of the Governor’s education policy is perhaps based on the mistaken assumptions that the private institutions in New York are in greater financial danger than what is an apparently prosperous State University system. For example, it is widely believed that the end of the post World War II baby boom will make it increasingly difficult for private colleges to meet their enrollment requirements. This is contrasted with the many state-operated campuses that have enrollment already reached their projections for the end of the decade.-On the surface it makes sense to encourage enrolents at private schools by increasing tuition waivers for the students, at the same time decreasing direct aid to SUNY schools.

The Hoyt bill, which is similar to bills previously passed in almost every other state in the Union, was assured of passage when it gained the co-sponsorship Information Act. Hoyt noted that although substantial progress has already been made in opening up the legislative process in New York, this bill would remove any barriers remaining between the people and their a $500,000 increase was made where $6 million increase was needed to maintain programs at their current level. A list of 143 eliminated positions must be sent to Albany by May 1.

NSL seeks to restore cut in BEOG program by Ellen Deutschman Special to The Spectrum (SASU) The National Student Lobby (NSL) Conference held in Washington D.C. April 3-6 brought 200 student leaders together to support a $792 million supplemental appropriation to the Basic Education Opportunity Grants (BEOG) fo;the 1976-77 fiscal year. Approximately one million college students may face reductions in their BEOG funds in the new academic year unless Congress approves the full supplemental appropriation next week. • Currently, the maximum award is $1400 with an average of $800. appropriation is approved, awards will be cut approximately 50 no If percent to a mximum of $1050, with an avaerage of $660. An additional $316 million above the subcommittee’s recommendation is necessary to complete the sum requested by NSL. - Japanese people Ambivalence toward ‘gaijin’ Editor’s Note: This is the author’s seventh article from Kanazawa, Japan. by Marc Epstein Special to The Spectrum As was their custom, two Englishmen and an English woman went horseback riding in Japan one lovely autumn in the year 1862. Unfortunately, they made the mistake of crossing the road near Yokohama at the time that the Lord of Satsuma’s procession was en route. The procession took several hdurs, and they couldn’t be held up by it. The Satsuma samurai responded swiftly, by cutting one of them in half and wounding the other, allowing only the lady to escape unharmed. Anti-western feeling ran quite high in Japan at that time. The three centuries old edict that called for the shogun to expell barbarians had been broken when Admiral Perry landed, and now other countries were demanding entrance and diplomatic rights. Many felt that the shogun was failing to fulfill his duty as military dictator of Japan. After all, his title, when translated means “barbarian (foreign) subduing general.” learn Committment Additional money is needed due to a higher student participation rate rate than has been predicted by the U.S. Office of Education (OE). For the current academic year, the OE had projected a participation rate of 56 percent although the actual figure was 74 percent. Congress deomonstrated its commitment to full-funding of the BEOG program when it approved a supplemental appropriation of $180 million for the 1975—76 year. This %180 million was taken from the $715 million originally appropriated for the BEOG program in 1976. Therefore the actual amount available in 1976 is $535 million. The $792 million requested supplement includes $180 million to restore the 1976 appropriation to its original elvel, and $610 million, as estimated by OE, necessary to prevent any student from receiving a reduction in aid. The 1977—78 federal fiscal funding for financial aid, post card voter registration and bills that will guarantee minimum wage for federally financed work-study programs were other isses the students for. “NSL’s function is to represent students nation-wide on issues involving their rights and to have a voice in federal financial aid policy. Conference participants agreed that state-wide lobby organizations should take a more active role in NSL because of feelings that NSL is a needed entity,” said Student Association of the State University (SASU) Vice President Stuart Haimowitz. Discussions concerning NSL’s future stressed a need for a student presence in Washington and in individual states. Conference participants endorsed the motion for NSL to continue lobbying and to alleviate its deficits, rather than face a possible shut-down. British responded The to this outrage by bombarding the city of Kagoshima in a display of western military technology never seen by the Japanese before. Although the city of Kagoshima was throughly destroyed, the Japanese of Satsuma responded by befriending the British, in order to their shipbuilding and weapon forging technique. Gaijin This response is typical of the peculiar ambivilance the Japanese continue to show to the non-Japanese. In Japan I an not known as an American. I am simply called “gaijin” a barbarian. If you live in Tokyo or Yokohama you can minimize the fact that you are different by frequenting places — where “gaijin” gather. However, here in Kanazawa there is no escape. People stare at you, talk about you, laugh at you. and also admire you. When a Japanese child catches site of you for the first time, he/she either becomes hysterical or dumbstruck. One AMeircan family (there arc about 12 of us Gajjin in all) refuses to travel in this area because they always become the center of attraction. Depending on your mood and circumstances you feel either flattered, amusted, or insulted by this treatment. Yesterday a Japanese student (Marxist, in a way Marx never would have comprehended) told me that he wasn’t interested in having me live in his dorm unless I accepted his rules of “comrade equality,” but in the next breath told me he would be glad to have me because I was “gaijin” and spoke English. Even Japanese Marxists have their way of distinguishing between native comrades and “gaijin” comrades: Muzak Last week I walked into the newest department store in Kanazawa to do some shopping. Wherever I turned I saw red, white and blue banners, picutres of Washington and other revolutionary heroes and huge Bicentennial posters. The muzak played Sousa’s “Stars and sTripes Forever” and other “patriotic” tunes endlessly. It seems that the store was using our Bicentennial as the theme for its annual spring sale. Although it was just a somewhat crass exploitation of Ameirca’s second century celebration in order to sell Japanese products, it pointed to the dramtaic significance that American “gaijin” have had in the daily life of the Japanese. As I looked around the store 1 noticed that Ameircan commercial-technological revolution had worked its way into the very fabric of Japan. That the store Revolution was not using the Russian or French as its theme may be more significant than most of us realize, whether or not you oppose or are in favor of the Americans “imperial-capitalist” state. For a few minutes the combination of the music and the posters made me almost forget 1 was in Japan. The Japanese are right, a gaijin is a gaijin, and I found myself longing to be back in “revolutionary America.” THE SUNY/B GRADUATE STUDENT ASSOCIATION in conjunction with ' SUNY/B STUDENT ASSOCIATION State University of New York at Buffalo New York State University College at Buffalo present THE SPRING 1976 SCHOLAR IN RESIDENCE; Long Dr. Richard Director of the Center for African & Afro-American Studies, Atlanta Univ.

Wednesday, 14 April 1976 The Spectrum . Page five . �Editorial Open meeting in New York the next day. This raises some important questions, and tells us certain things about the Trustees. For one thing, it shows us that so far, the Trustees have not felt it necessary to take any exceptional action, i.e., a special session, as some symbol of acknowledging the seriousness of the crisis within SUNY. Instead, they have decided to meet in the normal fashion in New York City, with only one non-voting student present. It also demonstrates that the Trustees are reluctant to meet with what will be at least an extremely interested audience of students and journalists. It will also successfully undercut a great deal of mass organizing that was centered around the meeting. If the Trustees are fearful of hostility, perhaps they should ask themselves why. Maybe the Trustees are so secure in their positions that they cannot imagine the havoc budget cuts are playing with peoples' lives, and the life of the University. Happy holidays University's decision to hold classes on both Passover and Good Friday this year greatly inconveniences the majority of students, faculty, and staff on this campus who wish to observe these two important religious holidays. The Members of the Calendar Committee, who set the dates for all vacations, and President Robert Ketter, have repeatedly stated that because Easter and Passover happened to fall in the middle of April rather than the middle of the spring semester, they did not mark these as days on which the school is officially closed. However, many other state universities worked out schedules that gave their students a week-long break at the end of February, beginning of March, as well as a three-day holiday on April 14, 15, and 16. We seriously question the Calendar Committee's judgment this year, considering that teachers are still cancelling classes, many students are still going out of town, and even The Spectrum will not be able to publish on Friday or Monday due to deadlines that conflict with Passover and Good Note: I find on proofreading that this column is replete with "he” and "him” and "man" and "men" where, obviously, both sexes are intended. I found also that I could not change most such references without awkwardness. English, unfortunately, is a sexist language, I admit it and deplore it, but one ought not blame the mirror for the wart upon one’s nose. When last I tried to disturb the peace and plenty of this former community of mine, I essayed a column on that intriguing sub-species of humanity, the hack. That column was a critical examination of the hack and his particular foibles. Now, 1 shall redress the balance; now, I shall write in favor of the hack. Fairness and balance demand it, but far more do the hack’s small but real vitures and lesser but authentic values demand it. Let us now priase these far from famous men. A hack is, in general, an object of contempt, “hack” and often wisely so. Even the name grates. It has the sound of a person removing a phlegmatic obstruction from his throat, not a bad analogy to the perceived and frequently actual function of the hack. Hacks thrive on procedural minutae, frustrating those who have no stomach for Robert’s Rules. Hacks write, understand, and administer election rules. Hacks know whether Stevenson carried the fifth ward or Brownstein carried Governors’. And hacks care. Hacks are fascinated by the techniques of political manipulation, and indulge in the mechanics for the sheer joy of it. Hacks are often disarmingly straightforward in their love of maneuvering. This may not sound like an adequate definition of a hack, but it is, for in no one else is there such a precise identity between what one does and what one is. The hack is what he does and does what he is. David J. Rubin told me a story that illustrates perfectly the consanguinity of form and function in the architecture of the hack’s personality. Bert Black, who is to connoisseurs the hack’s hack, once phoned David and got his roommate, who, having seen in The Spectrum and heard from David that Bert is the archetypal hack, demanded: “What makes you a hack? What . — . »** by Clem Colucci The State University Board of Trustees has quietly cancelled its April 28 public meeting on the State University at Albany campus, and has instead decided to meet privately 1 1 Outside 'S./ — do you do, what is there about you that makes you such a hack?” Bert calmly replied: “I sit on 13 different committees.” The story may be apocryphal, though Bert would never dream of denying it, but it makes the point. Bert is his 13 the different committees; 13 different committees are Bert. But all this having been said, I still contend that the hack is not only amusing, but valuable. And he is valuable precisely because he is, and to the extent that he is, a hack. K, * -itT ’>». -» What infuriates the non-hack most about the hack is his chameleon-like ability to switch colors at a moment’s notice. One day the hacks will join with NYP1RG to plunder the athletic budget and the next day they will join with the athletes to block a CAC van. The most remarkable thing, though, is that the hacks will maintain civil relations with all parties after the vote is over. It isn’t hard to understand, really. The best hacks, the ones who know and admit they are hacks, do what they have to do and understand when anyone else does the same. Hack A: “You screwed me on that vote to recommit.” Hack B: “Sorry about that, pal, but you know how these things go.” Hack A: “Yeah, I just came by to tell you I have to stick it to you on the appropriations bill.” Hack B: “No sweat. You up for a beer after recess?” Hack A: “Sure.” The hack knows that Gad is not necessarily, on his side, which means Satan is not necessarily dealing with his opponent. Hacks, in their refusal to make everything a vital contest of principle, add a bit of needed civility in an uncivil world. The hack is not a hero, and is suspicious of anyone who calls himself one. He keeps his emotional stake in the outcome of any contest to a minimum, consequently, he will not rage and bluster when he loses. But this picture of the easygoing, oblivious hack is somewhat overdrawn. I suspect that despite the hack’s cynical front, the hack cares in his way. I spoke recently to a hack who, in the wake of the latest round of primaries, gleefully anticipated the terms and timing of his imminent sell-out to Hubert H. (for Hack) Humphrey. But this hack could have sold out any time. He need not have backed a candidate who was a probable loser and whose campaign lacked most of the machiavellian subtlety hacks love. The hack would be the first to deny it, but I’m sure that under his blase facade he actually wanted to see a decent life provided for all Americans. 1 suspect that the hack is a hack because he is embarassed by the deeper values he holds dear, knowing how imperfectly he, or anyone else, lives up to them. Let us, then, celebrate the hack and his minor vitures, not the least of which is his tolerance for human frailty, which he sees writ so large in himself. His good points are not great, but they are nonetheless real, and there is something to be said for those who chose not to fight everything on the beaches and in the streets. Tomorrow, we will return the hack to his merited position of contempt, but for today at least, let us honor his claim to a small portion of our - respect. Friday. While we realize that discussion of thi? matter at this point is after the fact, our concern is that this situation does not arise again in future years. The Easter and Passover holidays are important enough to members of the Christian and Jewish faiths that the University should somehow arrange to give these days off, no matter when they occur.

Old age does not have Mr. Bickler necessarily infer “debilitation” and The Spectrum, with their lack of it, both forgotten the wisdom of experience ? I realize I may have overstepped the bounds of fair argument during this rebuff, but 1 am compelled, by the total ignorance of both the editorial and Mr. Bickler’s haughty endorsement, to include die whole of my response. I also realize that it is the Editor-in-Chief’s expressed right to edit or omit any letter submitted for publication, but I exhort you, in the interest of journalism, in the interest of an educated America, to publish this letter in its entirety. I further urge both the editor responsible for that “despicable” editorial, and Mr. Bickler, the author of that even more contemptible laudation, to defend themselves before my allegations. Thank you for your kind attention. — Bickler’s letter of endorsement was “too much.” Doesn’t Mr. Bickler realize that Henry “Scoop” Jackson does, in fact, have a viable platform, one that makes the label “Hawk,” the term used by both his letter and The Spectrum editorial, entirely inadequate? Does he not also realize that to term a rising presidential candidate, such as James Carter, as merely being “two-faced" (a term both the editorial and Mr. Bickler used without documentation) is also an inadequate appraisal? While I don’t support the gentleman, the very fact that he is having an increasing influence on the national constituency merits him closer examination. And finally, Hubert Donald Morris Kratowitz H. Humphrey, a man who has sacrificed the greater protion of his life in service to this nation, by whatever motivation, deserves better than to be Editor’s note: If you glance at Mr. Bidder's letter assaulted as an “old has been,” as I believe the again, you will see that he is obviously speaking editorial termed him.

Let me begin by saying that Stephen Knaster’s article, which appeared in the March 29th issue, “Hunters Thoughtlessly Murder Helpless Wildlife,” was not printed in its entirety. Not only was the actual title of the article changed, (the above was not Stephen Knaster’s title) but materials relevant to a coherent statement of the anti-hunting position were “edited” out of the article. Mr. Dowrey’s article is seductive; it is structured in such a manner that it appears logical and coherent, and would be convincing if the “facts” presented were true. They are not. Instead, Mr. Dowrey’s article contains one fallacious statement after another. I would like to address myself to some of Mr. Dowrey’s more blatant errors, starting with his first statement. Mr. Dowrcy accuses Stephen Knaster of quoting from biased sources. He claims that it was underhanded to quote Cleveland Amory and Peter Singer, both fervent humanitarians. Mr. Dowrey is making a mountain out of a molehill. Only two quotations were used in the article. The first quotation, from Singer, was not even in the body of the article, it was the introduction to it. The second quotation, which Mr. Dowrey claims is a biased one, contains information garnered from the U.S. Endangered Species List, not from Mr. Amory’s imagination. Does Mr. Dowrey consider the U.S. Endangered Species list a biased source? Mr. Dowrey claims that the sources he used in his article “maintain a neutral stance twoards hunting.” He assures us that he will not be guilty of quoting from 'biased sources. Mr. Dowrcy’s “neutral sources” are the National Wildlife Federation (NWF) and the Wildlife Management Institute (WMI), both of which were created and funded by the Remington Arms Company, Hercules Powder and the Dupont Corporation as pressure groups to promote hunting. In his book, The Right To Bear Arms, Carl Bakal describes an April 24, 1935 meeting of the firearms industry at which the NWF and the WMI were set up. Bakal describes these two groups as “creations of the arms industry.” Both of these organizations opposed the ocean mammal protection act and condone the baby seal slaughter. In their published literature, they invariably take a pro-hunting, pro-management stand. The “unbiased” nature of the NWF can further be illustrated by citing a quotation excerpted from their publication. National Wildlife, written by one of their directors, of all people, Robert Stack. “Hunting instills the companionship of a father and son together, the close ...” bond that develops between hunters of whatever age pro-hunting Stack is We do not need to question whether this is clear fromTiis statement. What we do need to ask is why Dowrey would see fit to use these as his unbiased sources.” Sloppy research, Mr. Dowrey. Mr. Dowrey would have us know that he doesn’t consider himself insensitive, nor do any of his family or friends. Unfortunately, the fact that one’s family and friends think one is sensitive does not make it so. If Mr. Dowrey wishes, we wfll be glad to introduce him to a great number of animals (human and otherwise) who would probably take issue with them. Mr. Dowrey, contends that hunting is a “relaxing sport.” We are curious to know which aspect of hunting relaxes Mr. Dowrey, the “communion with nature,” or the actual shooting of the animal? If Mr. Dowrey so enjoys “being with nature,” we suggest that he buy himself a good camera and “shoot” pictures of the animals he claims to love. (Incidentally, telephoto lenses are available for cameras as well as rifles.) If the relaxation is derived from the actual shooting, we suggest that Mr. Dowrey tote his — * ; Guest Opinion Mr. Dowrey, who states that Mr. Knaster is fuU of “hot air,” resorts to overt emotionalism in his references to a scab-covered fox and a starving deer. He claims that hunting improves upon nature, and that hunting can “avert these tragedies.” Mr. Dowrey’s hypocrisy astounds us. He supposedly feels great compassion for the starving deer and . scabby fox, but what about the animals who are maimed gun to the local rifle range, where he can achieve the or wounded by hunters and left to die slow, torturous deaths from gun shot wounds? 20-40 percent of all deer ultimate in relaxation by firing at lifeless targets. . If, act of relaxation is derived from the actual however, the that are successfully killed are injured and left to die killing a defenseless animal, then why not just say, “I slowly. The Journal of Wildlife Management placed the r enjoy killing.” y crippling rate at 35 percent of the total kill, and the Michigan Department of Conservation found that 30,000 While Mr. Dowrey is relaxing by hunting animals, he is out of 74,000 deer had “died slowly from hunting depriving 90 percent of the nation’s population of the woulds.” Many of these deer were does, and the majority beauty of the woods; hunters terrify real nature-lovers comes at the were fawns. enjoyment themselves. Your from enjoying In addition, between 700,000 to 800,000 people each expense of the majority of non-hunters in this country. year hunt with bows and arrows, where an excruciating We also question Mr. Dowrey’s terminology. A you death is caused by hemorrhaging. The wounding rate for “sport” is a match between two equal forces. Do bow and arrow hunting is even higher than for gun shot. consider a rabbit an equal match for you? If hunters are What becomes of Mr. Dowrey’s “compassion” in the light concerned with real sport, why not establish a new of these facts? coliseum in which man and animal are equipped with only Mr. Dowrey tells us that he seldom “gets” a deer, and their natural defenses. How many brave hunters would step into the ring with a 1200 pound grizzly bear? Unfair, that few hunters ever get a shot at one. But, if as he would you say? We contend that it is as unfair to stalk a rabbit have us believe, the woods are crowded with starving deer, one would imagine they’d be available for the “getting.” with a rifle. George Bernard Shaw said: “When a man Otherwise, maybe the woods aren’t as crowded as he’d wants to murder him he calls it ferocity.” have us believe. Mr. Dowrey would never shoot a starving Mr. Dowrey states that man has spent over 99 percent of his history as a hunter. Really, Mr. Dowrey, you must deer or a blind fox anyway; hunters prefer to bring home a healthy, youiig animal. This weakens the genetic stock of realize the vast difference between hunting as a “relaxing sport” and hunting for survival. It wasn’t until the the species, and often kills the most viable animals before they reach breeding age. industrial revolution that man began hunting for hardly 99 a few scant centuries ago “relaxation” The quotation from Thomas Kimball, a fanatical hunting advocate, begs to be disputed. He claims that the percent of our history. In addition, your logic again proves faulty. Wars have been a part of man’s history for longer deer populations of Wyoming of Wisconsin could not than sport hunting; would you therefore condone them achieve a self-sustaining level without hunters, unless wolves, coyotes, and mountain hens arc “restored.” because they persist? Man’s history is hopefully a “Unless” is of course the key word in this apssage. Wolves, progression forward, not a re-enactment of his past coyotes, barbarisms. and other natural predators are being exterminated in order that the deer population can rise, so Mr. Dowrey gave us cause for a good laugh when he cited the Boone and Crockett club as the first organized that the hunters can “enjoy the relaxation” of killing them. If man stops interfering with animals, the deer, proponents of wildlife conservation. Let’s get the facts mountain lions, wolves, coyotes, etc. would all reach straight. The Boone and Crockett club, founded by Teddy self-sustaining levels, with neither the help or Mr. Kimball Roosevelt, was known not for its humanitarianism, but for its registration of trophy heads, of which they had to have nor Mr. Dowrey. We would now like to address ourselves to Mr. a particular number before they were even allowed to join Dowrey’s personal attack upon Stephen Knaster’s the club. Their original constitution stated their aim as “to character. He first questions “when was the last time he promote manly sport with a rifle (Mr. Knaster) contributed anything other than hot air to Mr. Dowrey claims that he is a great “contributor” to the fight to save our wildlife.” We strongly suggest that the “fight to save our wildlife.” We question Mr. Dowrey’s before Mr. Dowrey attacks anyone else, he check upon his use of the word contribution. A contribution is a performance record. Stephen Knaster is the project head voluntary commitment of time or money to a particular of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee, and devotes cause or organization. Everyone knows that fees for more than 25 hours per week to the fight to alleviate the hunting licenses are mandatory; therefore, fees for hunting suffering of domestic animals and wildlife. He lectures and licenses are not a contribution. Simple logic, Mr. Dowrey. publishes on the subject, demonstrates and lobbies for | Under provision of the law, the federal government reforms, engages in a voluminous correspondence with returns it to the states on money tax and then collects the leaders of humanitarian organizations across the country, a pro-rated basis, according to the number of hunters in the state and land area. For the past few years, money and would, we are sure, pay a tax to stop hunting if one were available. raised annually through this tax has exceeded 40 million Mr. Dowrey also questions whether Mr. Knaster’s dollars. The argument that all monies raised for this tax come from hunters, however, is erroneous. It is estimated concerns extend to cattle in the slaughterhouse, and sarcastically remarks, “How many times has Mr. Knaster there arc 45 million owners of firearms in the country. enjoyed a nice steak, slaughtered, just for him?” Stephen About IS million persons buy annual hunting licenses in their states. Perhaps another 2-5 million are farmers who Knaster, as well as all the members of the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee, is an ardent vegetarian. His sympathies hunt on their own lands and are not required to buy licenses. Less than half the persons owning guns use them extend to all animals, not only those slaughtered by for hunting. Yet, everyone who buys gun or ammunition hunters. If Mr. Dowrey wants to demonstrate his love of animals, we invite him to join B.A.R.C., where we work to for any purpose is taxed for this conservation fund. Mr. Dowrey states that of the 74 bird species and the save lives, not take them. Hunting is not a personal question. We abhor the 35 mammal species on the endangered species list, not one Dowrey does think these legally. hunting How of helpless animals, and certainly, killing “for Mr. is hunted animals got on the endangered species list in the first relaxation” is the most contemptible excuse for it.

Equipment lost Personal rights To the Editor: In Oct. of 1975, a friend of mine who is at U.B., and I were riding on Hertel near Parker. We saw a vehicle with flashing lights ahead to the left of our vehicle. As w$ got closer we saw it was a fire truck. We then heard a siren which sounded like it was coming from the fire truck,, not realizing it was coming from a Fire Chief’s vehicle behind us. We were then pulled over and charged by the Fire Chief for blocking an emergency vehicle and for obstructing Governmental Administration. Because this fireman decided to give us a hard time, he was able to cause us pain and suffering, embarrassment and saddle me with a permanent arrest record. The judge threw the charge out'in court, but that was not the end of it. Many months later, I was accosted at Buff. Police Hdqtrs. by an officer and threatened with imprisonment, because he claimed I didn’t show up in court, which I did do. I was cleared immediately, because it was the court’s fault fo mot forwarding the record of dismissal to Police Hdqtrs. Now to the point. The Constitution is supposed to protect us citizens from the very things that happened to my friend and I. We are supposed to have freedom from persecution and prosecution in regards to free speech and standing up for our rights. Also, an officer of the law or the government is not supposed to misuse his authority; in this instance, false charges and false arrest.

The services of this office are unique to its Controlled Rooms.” On the'first point of the letter, I agree. College operation'and are not duplicative of other student housing should be available on both campuses for services. OFSA provides advisement on the required those people who prefer college life and want to legal basis for the enrollment of foreign students, avoid the buses. technical and related assistance to maintain their On the second point I strongly disagree. The legal status and various other special services to the idea of rating systems in college housing is to give foreign students. Some of these are: interpretation rooms to those students who contribute to life in the of visa and immigration regulations, approval of college. Like the writer says, “The colleges are new, student status in U.S., including extension of stay, innovative concepts.” How do you expect the transfer of schools, part-time work permission, colleges to stay innovative if the students who are international taxation problems, interpreting foreign willing to spend timeand effort in the College aren’t educational credentials, providing financial around to contribute? The kind of person who information and counseling, resolving intercultural “displeases” the College is one who just takes up differences in the classroom and residence halls, living space and never participates, he’s the one 'providing orientation to U.S. system of education who’s a “hack.” and culture, organizing and developing intercultural Point three is an out and out lie. I don’t know educational programs, cooperating with community Ryan and Mr. Furman get their groups to provide programs such as educational where information but it’s wrong. The only College I know programs in the city’s public schools, etc. OFSA about is Rachel Carson and I know for a fact that serves about 1750 foreign students on campus with a professional staff of three and a total staff of six. the only categories for getting a rating are: I. How long you’ve been attending any This professional staffing ratio (1 for 600 students) university. is below the nationally recommended standard and 2. How long you’ve been a member of the the N.Y. State Division of Budget requirement of College. 1:200. 3. What activities you’ve participated in.

Some of the people who have office. “We will provide the same programming the most to contribute may not have such great possibly even better services than that already averages. existing through OFSA,” Dr. Siggelkow says (The The real farse occurred last year when there Spectrum, April 2nd). But at the same time the weren’t any rating systems in the Colleges. The hacks committee reviewing. his office concludes that the were bartering with each College to see how good of Division of Student Affairs is maintained at a bare a room they could get. Do you think that Colleges bones fiscal level and is already significantly space should be filled by these hacks? Or should it understaffed (Reporter April 1st). How is it possible go to concerned students? In conclusion I believe that the rating systems are justified if only to keep out those who don’t contribute. Keep in mind the fact that anyone can participate in College activities regardless of whether or not they live in the College or pay the College activities fee. Mondays! — then to continue to provide student services at the same level as OFSA or as Dr. Siggelkow claims “even better services”? As a matter of fact if this was possible, then why should anyone blame the.New York State Legislature as “myopic, insular and chauvinistic” as Dr. Siggelkow has chosen to do (.The Spectrum, April 9th). How can anyone be convinced that the elimination of OFSA will not inevitably have deleterious consequences? We have only to remind ourselves of the situation last year when the Office of Minority Student Affairs was eliminated. And there again was Dr. Siggelkdw with his confident assurances that “the functions of the OMSA will be decentralised” and of course “carried out more effectively than before by the different divisions of the Vice-President’s office.” Don’t we know how well these services are being performed now? It should be emphasized that services to foreign students require expertise and experience not available elsewhere. The functions of OFSA are unique and are not duplicative. Dispersion of these services will result in irrepairable dislocation of services that are very much needed. The promised decentralization can only virtually eliminate these services and also undermine the already inadequate student services available to all students American and foreign. The GSEU Foreign Students Caucus has given its support to a meeting of representatives from all foreign student clubs jointly sponsored by the GSA Foreign Student Affairs Committee and the SA International Coordinator, on Thursday, April 15th at 5 p.m. at 232 Norton. At this meeting proposals related to retaining 6f OFSA will be discussed and plans for immediate action will be decided upon.

A fruitless attempt to smuggle a camera into Kleinhans was the culmination of a series of hassles and frustrations. After a bittersweet comedy of errors foisted by some unkind form of cosmic imposition. Dr. Duncan, the illustrious non-contributing editor of The Spectrum, and myself finally sauntered into Kleinhans for the Laura Nyro concert. Prior to Laura’s set the previously mentioned editor and myself retired to Kleinhans’ underground alcohol oasis for the prescribed journalistic ritual of imbibing a bit of liquid refreshment. It’s a function required of any critic worth his mildewed press card. Dr. Duncan and myself, after testing an amazing array of sardonic and jaded faces out on the mirrored decor and generally conducting ourselves in a manner that approximated civility, made our way to our seats.

According to the New York Times, a close family friend said that Ochs had been very depressed for a long time. “Mainly, the words weren’t coming to him anymore,” the friend said. Ochs, who was 35 years old, had been living with his sister, Sonny Tanzman, since December. He died by hanging. Ochs, who had been given the tide, “troubador of the new left” by various critics several years ago, wrote and sang numerous anti-war songs including “Changes,” “Love Me, I’m a Liberal,” “Talking Cuban Crisis,” “Draft Dodgers Rag,” and “I Ain’t Marching Anymore.” Few who were politically active in the sixties can forget his words when he sang.

Laura presides over the musical proceedings with a haunting secretive persona. It’s an aloofness bom out of her intense concentration. The songs are played as mild applause grows to greet such recognizable tunes as “And When 1 Die” and “The Confession.” Nyro’s voice pours out a controlled emotional honeyed sweetness; weaving and enveloping her voice around the melodies.

Thus, his first appearance on Studio Arena’s stage Monday night, followed immediately by the graceful bow of the dancer and a low “Good ceeve-ning,” brought the laughter and applause of instant recognition. The last of a series of programs cosponsored by Studio Arena and the SUNYAB Office of Cultural Affairs, Holder’s one-man Instant Theater show provokes much more of the applause. After the initial reaction, though, the audience clapped in recognition of talents few members had realized this theatrical whiz possessed. “I would like to do that which f enjoy most,” HOIder began, breaking into the first of several short dances he performed during the evening, backed by every sort of taped music from classical striptease to electronic Bach. A subsequent description of the Mardi Gras on his native Caribbean island included the observation that “You don’t have to go to Marth Graham and take a course to release and contract,” a motto which seems to be the basic tenet of this dancer’s artistic faith. A self-taught choreographer who firmly believes that uninhibited improvisation is the highest form of the art, Holder also paints, acts, directs, designs, tells terrific stories, and cooks all professionally, and all without formal training. - — Inter-Residence Judiciary WIRR General manager WIRR Administrative Assistant Pick up applications at: IRCB Office 102 fl So.

A competent horn section composed of flute, trumpet and sax periodically colored and textured the songs. Most 6f Laura’s selections were culled from the Smile and Eli and the Thirteenth Confession albums. Her most eloquent readings of her songs were from Smile. “I am the Blues” and “Money” were strikingly rendered. “The Cat-Song” was given a strong oriental flavor and hijinx, complete with the vibe player donning a cat’s mask. Nyro’s set was not much longer than an hour but she painted with brevity a quality musical portrait. It was a good solid professional performance but lacked the intangible magic that separates a good concert from a great one. As the doctor and myself hit the wet Buffalo pavement, after Laura had bestowed her final encore, “Midnight Blue,” I knew Nyro’s enigmatic elan had somehow managed to pull things back together. C.P.

There are great filmmakers who are horrid entertainers, and great entertainers whose films, as films, are monstrous. Treading that line is an art in itself. Alfred Hitchcock, long tagged “The Master or Suspense,” is ironically famed for the least important of his masteries. His film artistry is that of an impeccable craftsman, with half a century of service to his credit (Hitchcock is 76), who is still excited by what he does. As a maker of movies that intelligently amuse, his peers have always been few, and never more so than in these days of creeping profundity. Family Plot in particular gives the lie to Hitchcock’s popular tag, and spotlights what may be his greatest gifts; his taloned grasp of black comedy, and his skill in juxtaposing the mundane and It’s hardly as intriguing.

The paper will resume publication on Wednesday, April 21. to watch for that jolt. Black mundane Hitchcocks for penchant in “putting ordinary people extraordinary situations” has been quoted ad nauseam (check your nearest film theory book for the newest runthrough). But when his an characters are unsuccessful actor turned cabbie (Bruce Dem) and an addle-brained fake spiritualist (Barbara Harris), the the ordinary becomes gleefully seedy, especially with the two of them being world-class regularly bumblers •who are swamped with dumb-luck manna. main Mystery plots being what they are, our pair are enlisted by one of Harris’ clients to search for the long-thought-dead heir to a rich legacy. That search soon entagles them with a jeweler and his wife Devane and Karen (William Black), whose kicks come from kidnapping public figures for jewel ransoms. To tell more than that would be peeking. The director’s own interest keeps peering out in the dotty, irreverent moments he keeps sneaking in without particular emphasis. No fan of macabre humor should miss the scene of a young denim-clad, gum-chewing girl cutting a headstone to Top 40 radio blare, and Dem absently knocking his pipe on a grave marker. For straighter social commentary, take the husband who brings his four children Wednesday, 14 April straight from Sunday School to a roadside bar where he’s t meet his mistress. There’s one very harrowing sequence in the film: a runaway car ride down a mountainside, with the hood-mounted camera threatening to take you over the edge like the Wild Mouse. Even this, though, is dovetailed with humor: Harris’ entwining herself on Dem, thwarting his efforts to keep control. In this scene, as through most of the film, Barbara Harris succumbs to a unique fault: she’s too goodClAIter several rounds of seeing her sprint where angels fear to tread, I grew as irritated as her as at a real person behaving so stupidly. But her talent is still undeniable, as is that of Dern, making who in succeeds something very enjoyable out of an undemanding role.

Ann is on her own now, and has everything under control. The group introduced their new composition entitled “Buffalo,” but I don’t know if Buffalo was ready for it. Brass Construction sang most of the songs that are on their new hit album, Brass Construction, all of which purposely have a one-word title; “Movin,” “Peekin,” “Changing,” “Love,” “Talking” and “Dance.” All of the songs talk about something we do in our everyday lives. When asked why the one word titles Randy Muller, the group’s arranger, vocalist and instrumentalist replied, “We try to make our songs simple and interesting. We want to leave their interpretations up to the individual. Music lends itself to multi-interpretations because it’s an open medium and we want to promote universal harmony.” Love-peace i B.C. tauntingly teased the audience when they ended the song entitled, “Love,” by whispering love-peace-love-peace. It demanded your attention so Page twelve The Spectrum Wednesday, 14 April 1976 . . that you had to receive “some” kind of message. The orchestra was missed when they sang “Peekin;” it would have been an even greater pleasure if they had come to Buffalo also. During the one hour and eight-minute performance, the entire group consisting of nine energetic brothers, who never stopped dancing, even while introducing themselves! The last song of the evening, “Movin,” elevated the drowd to its ultimate peek. As B.C. and the audience tried to Bus Stop everyone cried, “Don’t Stop, Keep it Up,” and “Non Stop Bust Stop.” B.C. has been together about seven years. Most of the group went to junior high school together in Brooklyn, N.Y. Two other members are from the West Indies, and Randy the arranger of the group is originally from Guyana, Venezuala, but has been a resident of Brooklyn since the age of ten. Incidentally Randy also writes music and arranges for many other performers, one noteworthy group being B.T. Express. The name of the group reflects the “brass” instruments, and construction relates to something positively put together, “constructed.” B.C. has some ideas for a new album; 1 think they gave us a sneak preview when they sang a new song entitled “Cha Cha.” When the group left Buffalo they went on to Madison Square Garden to play with Rufus. Even though this is Brass Construction’s firstalbum, something tells me the world will hear a lot more from them. A lot of people had complaints that one hour and eight minutes wasn’t enough for their money. Their thirst was unquenchable. But I think the reason behind this is that good black entertainment comes to Buffalo much too rarely. — �Golden State Warriors are favored in the NBA playoffs -*H Staff Writer The “real” season begins for in teams the National Basketball Association this week as the championship playoffs get underway. Last year’s defending Golden State champs, the Warriors, should waltz right into the finals as the representative from the West. In the East, however, Boston and Washington will face stiff challenges from Cleveland, Buffalo or Philadelphia, each of which has played well over .500 ball this season. In the Eastern Division of the Eastern Conference, the 76ers and the Braves will play a best 2 out of 3 series to decide who plays Boston in the quarterfinals. This should be a close series between two inconsistent teams that can beat anybody when they’re right. Philadelphia, with the home-court edge, is lead by George McGinnis, Doug Collins and Fred “Mad Dog” Carter. They are very explosive but their youth and undisciplined “run and gun” style of play will hamper them if they 1 get by the Braves. ten Braves erratic puzzle The Braves, a throughout the season, boast tremendous personnel in Bob McAdoo, Randy Smith, Jim McMillan and John Schumate, but rarely play as well as they should. Along with their pitifully weak bench, they seem to be lacking someone to take charge in crucial situations and control the team. The Braves have lost numerous crucial games this season in the last minutes, and that lack of character just won’t do in the playoffs. whom are excellent rebounders and defenders. Golden State will have no trouble with the winner of the Pistons-Bucks series, and should continue on to beat the winner of the Phoenix-Seattle 4 Washington Bullets have won the by Ira Brush man Spectrum t t? They have two big men in Cliff Ray and George Johnson, both of Central Division crown. Thie Cleveland Cavaliers are that team and they are no fluke. They are a team without a star, although they had seven players who averaged in double figures for the season. The Cavaliers rely strictly on outside shooting (which defies the laws of winning basketball), but they have the guns and are very successful, as their 49-33 record indicates. The Cavs have excellent depth in the backcourt as Austin Carr, Jim Cleamons, Dick Snyder shooting percentage (highest guard in history of NBA) and “Footsie” Walker all see a lot of action. Up front they have “Bingo” Smith and Campy Russell, two more bombers, and hard-working, the excellent-rebounding Jim Brewer, form the backbone of the team. Jim Chones and Nate Thurmond split the center duties where the Cavs are weakest. The Cavs are also the second leading defensive team in the NBA. Their fans are among the most enthusiastic and will make the Bullets sorry that they didn’t manage to come in first place and thereby gain the home-court edge. The Bullets undoubtedly are blessed with the best talent in the NBA. Their starting five is a virtual all-star team (Wes Unseld, Elvin Hayes, Phil Chenier, Dave Bing and “Truck” Robinson), and they also have an excellent bench, led by Jimmy Jones, Mike Riordan and Nick Witherspoon. When the Bullets traded for Dave Bing it appeared they had traded for a championship, but it took all season for Bing to blend in. The Bullets seemed to have hit their stride after the All-Star break, but in the closing games, they lost their rhythm and first place. They seem to have trouble setting up a patterned offense, and unless coach K.C. Jones gets them ready, they’ll have a lot of trouble with the Cavaliers. Whoever plays the Celtics in the quarter finals will be a decided underdog.

To The Sons and Daughters of Israel Everywhere G-d Bless You All! Greetings and Blessing The Hebrew name of a festival, or of an historic event or anything, which is given by the Torah, or instituted by sacred Jewish custom, which also has the force of Torah expresses a basic content of the festival or of the thing, as explained in many sources. the The same applies to the name Chag haPesach festival of this month. may it bring us and all our Jewish — - - people goodness and blessing. In this instance, it is even more emphatically underscored by the fact that in T'NaCh, as well as in the festival prayers and benedictions, the festival is called "Chag haMatzos", yet it is universally accepted, as a of Pesach, matter of Jewish custom, to call it the Festival or simply Pesach Considering that Pesach is the "Head of the Festivals" the first and foremost of all our festivals; and the month of Nissan, in which it occurs and constitutes its central this further point, is the "Head of the Months", emphasizes the significance and content of the name - - "Pesach" for all the festivals and for the whole year. All the more so, since we are required to remember Yatzias Mitzraim (the Liberation from Egypt), which is at of Our the heart of Zman Cheiruseinu (the Festival Freedom), the essence of Pesach every day importance ■ for every Jew. The meaning of the word "Pesach" is indicated in the Torah, in the words: Ufosach HaShem "G-d will pass over, literally, leap over." Rashi explains it even more explicitly: "Pesach is so all the called because of the leap. . and you perform religious duties connected with it (the Pesach offering) in a - manner of leaping and springing". Why is Yetzias Mitzraim specifically bound up with leaping and springing? One explaination is as follows Yetzias Mitzraim is the experience of liberation and exodus from Mitzraim. For many generations Jews had lived in Egypt until they found themselves in a state of slavery, and the enslavement reached such a degree that, as our Sages of blessed memory relate, there were Jews who did not wish such was the depths of slavishness to to leave Egypt which they had degenerated. Egypt, in those days, was the most highly developed country in respect of science, technology, philosophy, etc. all those things which the world commonly considers as - - "culture" and "civilization." It was also the super power of the world. - Hence it' is clear that in order to extricate themselves from such an extreme state of Egyptian bondage and reach out for the other extreme of complete cheirus real to a state of receiving the (including inner) freedom Torah with the wholhearted readiness of naasah (and then) v'nishma, namely, accepting G-d's Torah and Mitzvos unconditionally, even before knowing fully their significance - this called for, as indeed it was, the greatest possible "leap", a Pesach "in a manner of leaping and - ■ - springing." • / And this leap was accomplished while they were still in Egypt, as described in the Torah: On Rosh Chodesh Nissan G-d told Moshe to speak to the whole community of the Jewish people about the Pesach, in all detail, including as metioned above, that all its rites be carried out in a manner of leaping and springing, and Culminating on the night of the 15th of Nissan, when "G-d passed over" (literally, "leaped over") and revealed Himself to them in His full Glory, when they were still in Egypt, and delivered them from bondage to freedom. Herein is contained a basic concept of Jews and Yiddishkeit which is valid at all times and in all places: Though Jews are in Golus. in exile in a materialistic world, and to some extent also in a crass world, and are a minority in quantity; Likewise also in the personal life, where the time given to material aspects (eating, drinking, sleeping, business, etc.) is quantitatively greater than the time devoted to spiritual aspects; Torah, prayer, Mitzvos Nevertheless, it is expected of every Jew that he, or she, should rise above all matters of Golus and leap over to a state of true freedom, to the highest level of Geulo, even while being externally in Golus. Indeed, every Jew, man or woman, has the assurance that the necessary powers have been given him, or her, to make this leap powers given by G-d Himself. The said teaching applies, as mentioned, both when it is "day" as well as when it is "night” both for one who is in a state of true light, as well as for one who, for various reasons, is in a state of darkness. In the former case, Pesach reminds one and demands, that even when one is on a highly illuminated plane, one must not remain stationary, but must strive for a still higher level, using the past achievement as a springboard for a leap to a higher plane. And one who is in a lowly state is urgently reminded not to remain in that position r but leap out of it to attain Geulo even a mome and true freer And in both cases as well as for all those who are in the intermediate stages - this radical change for the better is achieved through "serving G-d on this mountain,” in the spirit of maaseh v'nishma, through the study of Torah and doing Mitzvos in the daily life. And, as mentioned above, everyone receives, in this effort, the help of G-d, Who "works salvations in the midst of the earth" (in the depths of earthliness). May G-d grant that this "Pesach-leap" be carried out and achieved in a state of cheirus (true freedom), which includes freedom from all things that interfere with achieving the purpose of man's life, So that it be a worthy life, a life in harmony with the Divine intention. And the cheirus of everyone individually, the personal Geulo while still in Golus, will hasten the realization of the cheirus of the totality of Jews everywhere, and bring about the fulfilment of the promise: 'The 'horns' (strength and glory) o. the Tzaddik (the righteous) shall be uplifted", which, as explained by our Sages, refer to the Glories, including the crowning Glory of our ten Righteous Moshiach,, at the true and complete Geulo speedily in our time. — - ■ ' Yet, at the same time, the land was sunken in the of moral depravity, as is known from various sources, so much so that it.is referred to in the Tprah as the "abomination of the earth." And from this quagmire of Egyptian bondage, as from Egypt itself, the Jews had to extricate themselves and go out with an "outstreched arm,” completely tree, both physically and spiritually. And directly thereafter, in a very short time, to rise to the highest spiritual plane to receive the Torah, Which was the goal of Yetzias Mitzraim, as the Torah states."(G-d told Moshe) when you lead the people out of Egypt, you will serve G-d on this mountain (Sinai)”, to receive the Torah With all its Mitzvos, beginning with the Tan Commandments, The first of which are: I am G-d your G-d and You shall have no other gods, meaning, that G-d is One and Unique and there can be no other gods of any kind: And the Tenth Commandment is You shall not covet. . . anything that belongs to others, meaning, that not only must one not take away anything belonging to others, but one must not even desire it. These two concepts the oneness and unity of the Creator and the highest level in the relationship to fellow-man represent the complete and absolute contrast to, and negation of, the so-called "culture" of Egypt (in those days and similar cultures ever since). abyss - (1) Seattle and Phoenix prevailed in a torrid race with Los Angeles for the two remaining playoff spots in the West.

They are essentially a lame duck intercollegiate team. When Student Association (SA) moved last month to eliminate the varsity status for track, cross country and fencing, the track Bulls were left with a 1976 schedule and nothing else.

Based on this poor showing, Sub Board’s Board of Directors then cut all the committees’ budgets in the area of anticipated income. Schleidlinger explained that some of his committee’s deficits were because “it entered into more co-sponsorship things at increased costs.” He added that tickets were as low, if not lower, than last year’s. Schleidlinger also claims that some of the deficit is attributable to the rental of off-campus facilities, including Shea’s Buffalo Theater. He explained that the areas used on campus for concerts were inadequate, and that he was trying to improve the usual standards. Many artists who have performed at Clark Hall have indeed stated they would never perform there again because of the poor acoustics. — It is “highly unlikely” that there will be any University Union Activities Board (UUAB) events this summer other than a few already scheduled films, according to Sub Board Acting Treasurer Arthur Lalonde. Lalonde cited mismanagement of funds by the chairpeople of the various UUAB committees as the main reason behind the probable cancellation of such regular summer activities as outdoor movies, coffeehouses, and poetry readings. Lalonde singled out the Music Committee as this year’s top loser, projecting that by the end of the spring semester, it will be $9000 in the red. He noted that together with the Film Committee, Music has traditionally generated the most income of all the UUAB functions. Other committees are expected to accumulate debts of up to $3000 by the end of the fiscal year, he said. - Most of the Music Committee’s financial difficulties were attributed to Chairman Robbie Scgleidlinger, whom Lalonde called “irresponsible.” Charging that Schleidlinger greatly overstepped his budget, Lalonde said that there was little he could do to make up for past expenditures, since he only took over the Treasurer’s post last month. Summer not priority When asked whether he could choose between better concert accomodations or activities for the summer, Schleidlinger stated that summer entertainment has “never been a full time priority.” Besides, he added, his job is “not to judge expenditures, but just to program activities.” He stated that financial considerations are all made by Sub board. He also stated that students, who are required to pay mandatory student fees over the summer, “absolutely” have the right to enjoy summer festivities. Lalonde stressed the fact that all students must pay a $7.50 per summer session, and this fee is included in the following year’s anticipated income budget. Thus, fact contributing to the winter entertainment budget, without benefiting themselves. Lalonde and another well-placed Sub Board spokesman said that until last summer, there had rarely been any substantial amount of UUAB summer activities on campus. Then Michael Philips came into the Treasurer’s position and turned a $60,000 deficit into a $10,000 summer students are in profit by May J.975, thus enabling a summer program to move into action “Made the summer’ The summer program was a tremendous success, according to the Sub Board spokesman, who credited UUAB Director David Benders with most of the planning. Benders was unavailable for comment.

This was one of several topics discussed at an informal luncheon Thursday in Norton Hall with student editors from SUNY schools in Western New York and Russ Gugino, assisant to -the SUNY Vice Chancellor for University Affairs. Regional luncheons this spring will pre-empt the usual Albany press conference with Chancellor Ernest Boyer, who is recovering from The last hope for obtaining these funds is in the supplemental budget request in April, which is one of only three times during the year when a state agency can obtain money from the state. The supplemental budget has traditionally been used to fund things which were neglected in the regular state budget, which is usually passed in March. Last year, for example, the University of Buffalo obtained a $304,000 supplemental budget allocation to restore what would have been a disasterous cut in library acquisitions. mononuclecfSs. Fee referendum postponed In other matters, Gugino disclosed that a SUNY-wide referendum on whether to retain the mandatory student activity fee has been postponed pending a re-drafting of the guidelines which govern the use of the fee by the SUNY Board of Trustees. Many individual campuses have already had fee referenda recently, and therefore are unaffected by the postponement. In the meantime, the Trustees will attempt to rewrite the guidelines in the light of the recent report of the SUNY Mandatory Fee Task Force, which made several recommendations. Gugino, who was a task force member, indicated that the Task Force’s two most controversial recommendations made would not be forwarded to the Trustees for consideration. — - Gugino said that although the supplemental budget Cot SUMY this year is expected to be small, restoration of the SUS money is necessary because of the 10,000 SUNY graduate and professional students with yearly incomes below $4800 who depend on it. Graduate school tuition at SUNY is currently $ 1.600 a year. The maximum award granted und6r the Tuition Assitance Plan (TAP) is $600. TAP is usually supplemented by the taxpayer supported SUS funds, and frequently make up a large part of the Test of a student’s tuition. SUS money can cover the entire tuition charge when the maximum TAP incentive is awarded. When the Legislature approved Governor Carey’s Executive Budget, however, graduate students on full TAP- SUS scholarships found they would no longer be able to afford the cost of school. It was also feared that minority students would be particularly hard hit. The two recommendations had asked that the existing fee guidelines be rewritten to explicitly permit using the fee to fund “student organizations or corporations,” and to fund activities involving “advocacy or expression or views or opinions . . . providing that these funds are not used in support of an extra campus political committee, party or candidate.” Four criteria Existing guidelines governing the use of student activity fees do not specify that funds may be used for student corporations or for activities involving expression of views or opinions. The guidelines only require that fees be used for activities of an “educational, recreational, cultural or social nature.” Because the wording of the guidelines is vague, the Task Force sought to clarify them and determine the extent to which so-called political activities may be funded. Controversy over interpretation of the guidelines has occurred from time to time since their passage in 1970, At that time, local campus presidents were given review power over what was previously unsupervised spending of activity fee money by student governments. Debate over the use of student activity fee money has often centered around the student’s freedom to use mandatory fee money as they see fit and the University's responsibility to ensure that the fees are used in accordance with the SUNY guidelines. j �m •J t "S ‘ [f*r I . . V ' Peng ousted f f Ki;jy Major shakeup in China's leadership by Rob Cohen Contributing Editor In a major shakeup of Chinese leadership, Teng Hsiao Peng was ousted from his post of Prime Minister last week to be replaced by a lesser known figure, Hua Keo Fung. The ouster was followed by a massive march in Peking’s Tien An Mien square Tuesday hailing the leadership change. Sings of an impending shakeup were visible for the past several months. Poster campaigns in radically oriented Shanghai and other cities contained veiled and later overt attacks on the Prime Minister, denouncing him as a reactionary and a “capitalist reader,” Later these slander campaigns assumed semi-official sanction through disparaging remarks about Teng, attributed to Chairman Mao Tse Tung. Mao was quoted by the daily Jenmin Jih Pao as saying that Teng, “the pre-eminent moderate leader, might retain his post qnly jfi he repented properly for his bourgeois ways, and underwant a thorough re-education process.” Exile then reemergence Teng was purged along with many other moderate bureaucrats including the then premier, Luo Shao Chi during the Cultural Revolution of the late ’60’s. After admitting the error of his ways, Teng vanished from the political scene, exiled to a life of ideological rehabilitation. His startling reemergence, which has baffled even the most seasoned China watchers, was engineered by the lat Chou En Lai who wished to ensure an orderly succession to the country’s top govemmcnMl post. What, surprised the Sino experts even more was the fact that Teng’s reappearance was accomplished without the faintest of grumblings from the leftist factions which brought about his original-downfall. Even when he became acting Prime Minister, filling in for .the ailing j Chou, the left retrained mute. J ; Reputation for gluttony jsL, All of this changed, however, soon after Chou En Lai’s death. The radicals who had been gagged by Chou’s continued presence, now felt totally unrestrained and unleashed a barrage of acrimonious slander denouncing Teng for his anti-revolutionary dogma and bourgeois attitudes whiph included a reputation for gluttony. Before his purging, Teng was noted for his discriminating tastes, frequenting the finest “\ ' restaurants in Peking. |j/raV Teng’s pragmatism and non-ideological apprpith Were .pounced upon by his radical detractors who goaded upon fiis • notorious utterance, “It doesn’t matter whether a cat is black or white, both catch the same mice.”. Teng reacted to this flood of embittered resentment by presenting an extremely low profile. The moderate factions backing Tdng took the attacks silently, ifailing to strike back until just recently. * « _ : Political anomaly When Chou died, political analysts were positive that Teng would be named to the premier’s post, despite the strident opposition. When Hua Kuo Feng, an obscure member of The Politburo was named instead, everyone was taken by surprise. This instance demonstrates the impossibility of forecasting, let alone analysing Chinese internal politics. The People’s Republic is a political anomaly. Teng, however, remained deputy prime minister and was still an influential member of the Politburo. His setback did not placate the insatiable radicals who . were committed to the execution of his downfall. They increased the intensity of their attacks, now that they had chalked up one victory. Without the confidence of the Chairman, Teng was now doomed. Demonstrations staged by moderates last week, ostensibly in tribute to Chou En Lai, were the first concrete show of support for Teng. Posters were put up indirectly attacking China’s leading radical: Mao’s wife, Chiang Ching. The demonstrators went so far as to call the legitimacy of Mao’s leadership into question, something unprecedented in the history of the People’s Republic. Remarkably the rallies went on, uninterfered with. The heated political situation spurred Mao and the Politburo into swift action, facilitating Teng’s demise. It remains to be seen whether his moderate allies will go the same route. GMAT MCAT . CPAT • LSAT .VAT • .GRE Unified student government by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer A Council of Student Governments (CSG), comprised of executive committee members from the five major student associations, was officially formed Monday to facilitate a unified student effort on such issues as budgtary cutbacks. “The administration can no longer continue to use its strategy of divide and conquer,” said Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz. “Now, when a problem arises with a section of the students at this campus, they can get help from the other student governments. Unified, the entire student body can work together to solve their problems.” The State University at Buffalo is the fourth SUNY center to form a CSG. Albany, Stony Brook and Binghamton already have similar organizations. The four CSG’s plan to form a coalition to represent SUNY students in Albany. Twenty representatives from the organizations will meet for two days at Stony Brook beginning May 1 to discuss budgetary cuts and determine a plan of action. Fiscal research The major concerns over the budget cutbacks has induced the CSG’s to begin research into the state fiscal situation. Gary Welborn, a former senator of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and an active member of the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) here, is studying this problem. “By the end of this summer,” said GSA Administrative Vice President George Carly, “we plan to provide suggestions to the SUNY Board of Trustees.” The CSG on this campus intends to tackle other problems affecting the students here. It has already expressed discontent over an administration offer of only six student seats on the 16-member Parcel B Advisory Board. The CSG feels that students will be under-represented. The idea to form a coalition of student governments was originally part of the Progressive Student Alliance (PSA) platform presented during GSA’s Executive Committee election. The new GSA Executive Committee invited executives of the GSA, SA, Millard Fillmore College SA, Dental Student Association and Student Bar Association to a March 31 meeting to discuss student problems caused by the budget cutbacks and tuition increases. Executives at this meeting expressed a desire to meet regularly and to cooperate on issues affecting students at this University. CSP replaced The CSG has replaced the Council of Student Presidents tCSP), a coalition of only the student association presidents. The CSP was established three years ago during former- SA president Jon Dandes’ administration to plan unified action in Sub Board. CSG has an informal structure and no constitution, said Schwartz. It meets regularly on Mondays and reaches decisions by consensus. GSA President Patricia Ley, who was the major thrust behind the CSG, chairs the meetings. Asked his opinion of CSG, Schwartz replied, “I think it’s a great idea It will be a powerful body with the administration and faculty.” in dealing Schwartz, Ley and Carlo have all expressed high hopes for the CSG’s future success. CSG may also invite the Nursing and Pharmacy Student Associations to join. ... MASS MEETING .SAT • Over 38 years of experience and success. Small classes. Voluminous home study materials.

A neat young couple, heavily laden with papers and notebooks, hurries down a carpeted hallway. Reaching the last office, they stop. The woman reaches up and straightens her companion’s tie. “Nervous?” he asks. “No!” she answers defiantly A scretary seated at a desk inside the door watches them for a moment in wry amusement, then pushes an intercom button. “Sir, there’s two more of those kids from the National Student Lobby out here. Can you see them?” “Are they ready to, come in? Tell them to make it quick, they’ll be calling us down to vote any minute,” a voice replied curtly. “No, they aren’t quite in the office yet. They’re still outside telling each other not to be nervous.” Pause. “Then how do you know they’re lobbyists?” “I’ve been around here a long time. They don’t change much.” She snapped off the intercom the as entered and pair approached her desk. The man extended his hand to the secretary as his partner’s face broke into the move un-nervous smile she could muster. “Hello, we’re from the National Student Lobby. 1 believe -we have an appointment to see the Congressman His sentence was interrupted and his companion startled by what sounded like a fire alarm bell. He knew it was the call for members of Congress to take their seats and vote, anti he lost any of speaking to his hope representative. The Congressman emerged from his office, heading for the hallway in a trot. “Congressman, may we speak to you sometime tomorrow?” he asked. “If you can keep up with me, you can speak to me now,” he ” - replied “How long do we have to speak with you sir?” the woman asked as the three cantered down the passageway. “To talk?

Finally, Chupka intimated to the female participants that, should a legislator make a pass at them, they shouldn’t feel SASU’s reputation will be tarnished forever if they turn it down. “Use your judgement” was her advice. “We range from radicals to facists here,” commented State Assemblyman William Hoyt to SASU one representative. Probably the most important skill a lobbyist must develop, along with the long-distance running, is the ability to face both extremes and all the variations in between and keep smiling. — welcome bach Graphically Exciring— — Over 250 Pages Con24 Pages of Photos Including Many in Full Color, 44 Songs Plus Special Lyric Section. taining LAW SCHOOL INTERVIEWS Of Prospective Law Students A Representative of the College of Law UNIVERSITY OF SAN FERNANDO VALLEY The school is fully accredited by the Committee of Bar Examiners of the State Bar of California and has officially applied for approval by the American Bar Association.

The Court ruled against Martin Alevy of Brooklyn, who claimed he was rejected by Brooklyn’s Downstate Medical Center, while allegedly less-qualified minority students were accepted. The decision, which was unanimous, upheld decisions of lower courts against Alevy. The medical school argued that, in an attempt to provide better medical service to the large numbers of blacks and Puerto Ricans in the nearby community, its admissions officers carefully scanned minority members’ applications for financial or educational disadvantages. detrimental effects, and if such goals cannot be achieved by a “less objectionable” means, such as granting special consideration to the poor rather than to particular groups. Downstate Medical Center, a unit of SUNY, received 6300 applications last year for 216 positions. It eventually accepted 475 (assuming more than half of its accepted students would go to other schools that had accepted them), including 66 minority group members. A first waiting list contained 131 applicants, and Alevy was 84th on a second waiting list. Alevy claimed that his scoring average on admissions tests was higher than all of the minority students who were admitted.

If there are no surpluses, and the spokesman does not believe there will be any. Sub Board will check its entire budget to see if there are any unused funds. “We would never take money from any other organization," he stated, but would rather look for programs where money had been appropriated, but the projects never developed; “We will try just about everything,” he said. However, he did concede that committees’ the perhaps chairpeople had overspent their budgets, and that there might have been some expenditures that shouldn't have occurred.

Monday, 12 April 1976 Music Committee Lalonde said the Music Committee is in particular trouble. He predicts that the upcoming Bob Marley and the Whalers concernt will put the Committee further in debt. To date, the Music Committee has brought in profits of $33,000, as opposed to the expected $38,000 in the middle of April. In order to break even, the Bob Marley concert must net at least $14,000. Lalonde predicts that the concert might yield _$4000, while Schleidlinger figures a more optimistic $6000. Lalonde says that if his figures, which he terfns “realistic,” are accurate, “students will have paid $10,000 for nothing.” Even if the concert was cancelled, there would be a loss of $7000. He said the reason the contract for the concert was originally signed by then Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell was because had Schleidlinger promised that the Sonny Rollins concert last month, which was originally scheduled for Clark Hall, would being in $5000. Instead, the concert was held in the Century Theater and brought in $3300. The Film Committee is also in debt now, Lalonde said. Its anticipated income was $48,000, and at this point, the Committee has only brought in $33,000. That means that in order fo; the Film Committee to clear up all its expenses, it must, in one month, bring in half of what it had already gained in eight months. Lalonde stressed that this year’s anticipated income figures are not unrealistic based on last year’s records. Not as many people have been going to the films on campus this year, he said. The Sub Board spokesman said that there should have been a special appropriation set aside for summer activities. Next year, he said, he hopes there will be. , PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

Page seven . �Outside Editorial by Clem Colucci Shortsightedness Last summer, UUAB and the Office of Student Affairs coordinated one of the most exciting activites' schedules ever put together at this University. This year, due to shortsighted planning and careless management of funds on the part of several UUAB Committee chairpersons, summer school students may not have outdoor coffeehouses, movies, folksingers, or poetry readings to look forward to at the end of a long, hot day. Much of the problem stems from the fact that many Committees, particularly the two big money makers, Music and Film, spent their budgets freely this year on the basis of anticipated income that was never realized. By the time summer rolls around, many will have used up their entire budgets, and some will find themselves thousands of dollars in the red. This leaves no money for summer programming, as well as possible problems in balancing UUAB's budget in time for the Sub Board hearings in July. If Sub Board and UUAB cannot come up with additional money from unused lines to cover the cost of events in June, July, and August, then students who may be paying up to $15 in mandatory fees for the summer will be gypped out of activities they rightfully deserve. Should this come to pass, as spokespersons for Sub board feel it might, the blame will rest with irresponsible UUAB committee heads for their failure to set aside sufficient funds. Music Committee Chairman Robbie Schleidlinger's answer, that his job is "not to judge expenditures, but just to program activities/' does not make him any less culpable but rather affirms a thoughtless hadling of funds; his job as chairman, by definition, means that he will be responsible for watching his budget. Once he saw that concerts were losing money or even falling short of the projected income, he should have eased off on future spending to ensure that the money would hold out through the summer. It is unfortunate that summer school students may have suffer without the activities that make the summer so to pleasant just because people in positions of authority did not use foresight in planning. UUAB and Sub Board must make this clear to the students they pick to head the committees for next year. The Spectrum In coking Someone at the Democratic National Committee is obviously lacking in vision. This, of course, is hardly surprising; indeed, the opposite would be an almost fatal shock. But the Democrats have a real shot at the White House this year and they’re blowing it. The alleged “front runners” are all dying. Jimmy Carter has Anally managed to work his foot through his teeth and into his mouth with his recent defense of “ethnic purity” in the neighborhoods. Henry Jackson is busy proving that Gerald Ford is not the worst orator in American politics. And after an early start, Morris Udall’s voter recognition is still so low that if everyone who didn’t confuse him with his brother Stewart voted for him, he still couldn’t win. As for Hubert must we? The race started out with about a dozen candidates in a fairly impressive Held. Now all of them, and most of their support, money, and machinery, are gone. If they could somehow have pooled their resources and talents, the ticket would have been unbeatable. The solution is almost painfully obvious. Eugene McCarthy showed the way by announcing his choice for Vice President and promising to reveal his Cabinet choices as soon as they are settled. This is* just the approach the Democrats need- Instead of fragmenting their forces and spreading their support all over the ideological and geographical map, the Democrats should run not a Presidential candidate, but an All-Star team, a complete government, President, Vice President, Cabinet, the works. If Coach Strauss is watching, I have the draft choices made up. - Hubert Humphrey (Minnesota); President: A proven vote-getter and acceptable to the party mainstream. For the sake of unity he must agree to serve only one term and Step aside in 1980. Only one candidate has those qualifications and wants the Presidency enough to submit to such humiliating conditions. Vice President; Mike Mansfield (Montana): No Presidential ambitions, known for personal integrity and admired hly all. Secretary of State: Frank Church (Idaho): Expertise in foreign affairs, Critic of Johnson and Nixon-Kissinger-Ford policies. Secretary of the Treasury: Lloyd Bentsen (Texas): Much past business and financial experience. Secretary of Defense: Henry Jackson Has confidence of (Washington): military-industrial complex. Balances Church’s restrained foreign policy. > Attorney General: Fred Harris (Oklahoma): Lawyer with plenty of zeal and prosecutorial flair. Look for good antitrust performance. Secretary of Agriculture: Jimmy Carter (Georgia); A successful peanut farmer. Secretary of Labor: Birch Bayh (Indiana): Good ties to organized labor. Secretary of Commerce: Milton Shapp (Pennsylvania): Self-made millionaire. , Secretary of the Interior; Morris Udall (Arizona): Good record on the environment. Also, he followed his brother Stewart into Congressional seat so why not into Cabinet post? Health, Education and Welfare: Terry Sanford (North Carolina); Broad administrative experience and background in education. Housing and Urban Development: Sargent Shriver (Massachusetts): Puts his Peace Corps experience here at home. Secretary of Transportation: George Wallace (Alabama); Ironic, if nothing else. Plenty of experience with buses. There you have it, a Democratic All-Star should get about 75 percent of the vote in November. The team is powerful and well-balanced, appealing to every traditional Democratic voting bloc: labor, blacks, the young and the intellectuals, Catholics, and Jews. Every region of the country is represented. The ticket includes Protestants, a Mormon, a Catholic, a Jew, and several who worship votes. It’s a can’t lose proposition. If the team gets into spring training soon, it should be able to whip anyone the Republicans send up in November. And just think of all the political jockeying as the whole to replace President cabinet maneuvers Humphrey in four years. It’ll be an exciting term if nothing else. team that Killing for fun To the Editor. I feel that Robert Dowrey, in his Guest Opinion in The Spectrum on April 7, is trying to rationalize the merits of the “sport” of hunting, as so many hunters'are apt to do. Mr. Dowrey states "... I don’t consider myself a sadist. I consider hunting to be a relaxing sport where I can be with nature.” This is clearly a contradiction. There is a certain perversity involved in the desire to kill a living creature for the purpose of relaxation. Isn’t it more healthy, and kind, to relax through nature “armed” only with a camera or binoculars? Mr. Dowrey also implies that hunting is a more viable solution to reducing animal over-population than nature’s population control. As many hunters have previously stated, he believes that letting nature take its course, as in such disabling diseases as mange and distemper, is much more cruel than dying from a hunter's bullets. What of the many animals who have been wounded by hunters? Aren’t their lingering deaths as painful or as inhumane as any disease that nature could ever have dealt out? Hunters often criticize anti-hunters as being over-emotional as far as animals are concerned. 1 believe that it is the lack of emotionality on the hunter’s part that shows that hunting is wrong. If hunters arc such great conservationists, as they claim to be, only doing their duty for the environment and wildlife, why- do they enjoy the killing of an animal so much? It is time that human beings recognize that animals have feelings too. Just because they can’t express them doesn’t mean that they don’t exist. , Iris Schifren Monday. 12 April 1976 Vol. 26, No. 75 Editor-in-Cliiaf Amy Dunkin - College controlled rooms Managing Editor Richard Korman Gerry Me Keen Advertising Manager - - ...

If I wrote that groups with the most power are the most thoroughly indoctrinated and the most apolitical, 1 might alienate even more people, but it’s the truth. It takes thought, and work, and examination of the premises and the real beneficiaries of our mass attitude. (Hint; Who benefits most from our capitalist system?)

P * ' To the Editor This letter was deemed necessary after that Ridiculous Review Regarding the Frampton concert. First, as you now know. I’m sure, the Frampton/Geils concert was in thfc Aud, before 14,000 peopfe. Kleinhan’s held some type of classic recital on Wednesday. But now I have two questions for Mr. C.P. Farkus: Were you reviewing the Frampton Live Show (as the headline suggests) or Frampton Comes Alive? Indeed, I agree FCA is intended to be for the non-cultists who now can have his greatest hits. What about the Eagles; Four albums and they top release their “Greatest Hits." hat’s not the artists doing; it is the record company who will drain any “star” for all it can. You put Frampton down saying “his music is now as safe and challenging as a G-rated picture drafted by Disney” well, man, that’s his style!! Why do all rock and rollers have to be "Mean Mothers.” We have enough “X-rated” groups around J. Geils now, don’t we? (Arrosmith, Kiss : & themselves) And you ask why has “constant touring and five albums . . . finally brought Peter to the summit.” Put two and two together, dummy! If the man tours long enough -and the crowd likes his music they're going to buy his albums! You may say Frampton is looking toward the AM crowd now, but he did it without any hype (ala Springsteen & Bay City Rollers goody, goody). The money is in AM, but I really don’t think too many of his FM cult have felt FCA "has left a cancerous blotch.” It's purpose is to try to recreate live Frampton Which brings ns to one more, final (I hope) point. You say the audience screams “as if they were Well that’s part of primed with amphetamine . . the “live concept Frampton is the show, complete with moving around while playing and leading the audience in handclapping and yelling, asking the crowd to join in! That's what helps make the Frampton Concert Atmosphere; or what helps make Frampton Come Alive! And now I’m afraid the truth must come out. C.P. Your review proves you have never seen Frampton Live.

One nice thing about such a situation as I have been in this evening, however. I am somehow able to indulge my pettiness without feeling guilty. I mean, it is hard for a bona fide guilt freak to indulge being mean. I get anxious about whether it is “all right" to put a request in for a book that someone has just requested out from under me. thus limiting whoever it is to the two weeks that they just limited me to. As my boss pointed out to me earlier today when I was admitting that I sometimes get prickly, sometimes the I gets lost. (Stay with it, it’s a little anglo-saxon but it’s there.) I wonder if I should take off this nice new typewriter ribbon? And find myself idly wondering if the new dude will get a shock when he tries to take down her fancy light fixture and shade.

I must agree with Mr. Patel in his statement to the American students (graduate). 1 feel he has touched a very important issue there. 1 do not wish Mr. Patel, or anyone, to construe from my letter that I am advocating the removal of foreign students from this University, as that is not true. I feel that the presence of the foreign student can be looked upon as an asset to the University community; providing both parties with an opportunity to learn about each other. This can be a viable means of cultural exchange. However. I have come here to learn as much, academically, as possible and I cannot expect to if my teachers and I are unable to communicate well.

Well, what else can the state do to anybody, that it hasn’t already? The Cavages-Coop ridiculousness has gone to the State Supreme Court. There, my friends, is a circus and a half. Suppose the Court, in its infinite wisdom and constant good feelings towards the working class of capitalists, should decide that Cavages is indeed being deprived of its rightful profit margin because of competition supported in part by state monies. Does it not follow therefrom that if the Blue Galaxy, Your Host, and Super Duper join together and protest the existence of the food servic since it obviously reduces the profits they might otherwise make, that we shall have to close down the food service? Iz thiz not, Nastasha, only ze beginning? Next, a coalition of all the stores which sell books, from Buffalo Textbook all the way down to K very mans including the drugstores shall immediately rise up and claim unfair competiton based on the low rent and superior location of the University Bookstore. And what is there to do but acquiesce, the principle having been established. Und now komt der biggie, the megaton complaint. In a master stroke inspired by an evil genius I had nothing to do with it Canisius, Rosary Hill, Medaille College, Niagara, et al, file a complaint that the State has no business being in the education business in the first place since quite clearly such use of state funds to promote education is unfair competition with small struggling schools who only have the Catholic church to back them up.

All of which, it seems to me, remains beside the point of what happens if a table opens up in Norton Union selling lifetime memberships to the Millard Fillmore Memorial Record Club open to anyone who is now or has ever been a student, faculty, staff member, or spouse of same of any of the foregoing.

Given the complexity of the laws dealing with selling things, the rights of social organizations, and the hack of a constitutional guarantee to select where you wish to do business and how much profit you arc automatically entitled to at any given location, something can be done.

Mr. Oechsle stated that CAC agreed to give Friday's Theatre S2000.00 to “bail out” the production of “Bye Bye Birdie.” Fie also accused CAC of spending money to avoid a budget cut next semester, and went on to say “supposedly other Panic groups have also received money from CAC.” He concluded by recommending SA seriously look into the funding of CAC. For the record: I. CAC did not give Panic Theatre any money whatsoever: Panic Theatre 1 asked for S2000.00, but CAC did not fulfill the request. 2. CAC is not spending money to avoid a cut next semester. We regard it as one of our highest priorities to save money whenever possible, as a responsibility to fee-paying undergraduate students. 3. Undeniably, CAC has shared resources with other student groups (POI)FR, Human Sexuality, Family Planning), and will continue to do so for any groups that ask for C'AC’s cooperation in programs of community service and social change. 4.

As members of the senior class of the undergraduate program of the School of Social Work (SUNYAB), we feel it imperative that there be a re-evaluation of the decision to cut the program so drastically. Not only has the undergraduate program been discontinued as of September 1977, but now the only state graduate program in Western New York has been cut by 50.percent. These cuts seem contparison to cutbacks in disproportionate throughout the system. We fully agree and support the Faculty Committee Against Retrenchment’s Statement. “The consequences of these actions should be immediately obvious. Approximately 80 percent of the social workers in Western New York are graduates of this school. It has been a major resource for the local population attaining professional degrees in social In the Wednesday, April 7th issue of The Spectrum I read a letter submitted by Vijaykumar Patel. One point stated in his letter bothered me sufficiently to initiate this response. Mr. Patel stated that GA’s and TA’s are appointed on the basis of academic ability. He went on to say that there is more to academic ability than just language facility. Many of the GA’s and TA’s are responsible for teaching undergraduates. In this respect I feel they are compelled to have a fluency in the English language by nature of their position as teachers. After all, English is their primary tool regardless of the subject they teach. In many instances the GA’s and TA’s are relied upon more heavily than the professor teaching the course. It is with the GA or TA that one is supposed to have some kind of direct communication in relation with the course. If the GA or TA has a limited ability to communicate in English, the student is put at an immediate disadvantage. Especially when compared to other students in the same course but who have a GA or TA who speaks English more fluently. In conclusion, a GA or TA can be the brightest person in the world (have a high academic ability) but if he can’t communicate his knowledge to the undergraduates assigned to him he is worthless to these individuals. He thereby defeats, to a large extent, his own purpose. # Steve Dear For the trophy table To the Editor. This is in response to Mr. Tom Nicotera’s letter in Monday’s April 5th The Spectrum titled “Serving New York State.” I would like to point out some facts which might help Mr. Nicotera’s horizons: I. It is true that some foreigners lack verbal skills in English. But many, from countries like India, can converse in English with fluency, clarity of thought and grammatical perfection. (Such ability stems from the unfortunately prolonged British rule.) we don’t speak the same way as many Americans do. We don’t draw out words like “mass” (which is invariably pronounced “miass” in this country). Neither do we thoughtlessly say “ain’t” for “aren’t,” “isn’t” and every negation under the sun when “ain’t” is a proper substitute for 2. It is true that conservation. the National Wildlife Federation’s (incidentally strongly associated with Rifle Association), “animal the National management” concept.

However, it is the prime specimen, the best of the species that “sportsmen”, seek out and destroy, not the weak, sick, the unfit, those most likely to starve. Then, if animal populations needed the omnipotent, omnicient assistance of humanity for population control, what on earth did those poor dear little animals do before man showed his face . . . and his fat gun butt on earth?

One reliable method for helping a stricken friend is to answer, “NO 1 DON’T KNOW,” whenever he/she ends a Sentence with “you know.” The use of like may be dealt with by asking the offender, “like what?” Far from being a panacea, these methods do have their drawbacks, one of which is being punched in the mouth by a ungrateful friend who’s disposition prevents him/her from recognizing your good intentions. The point, however, is that practically everyone suffers from this illness (to varying degrees). Alas, even 1 (patronizing as this may sound) lapse into unconscious intermittent interjection of those little “fillers.” But, like, how can you blame me? You know? important Often when one is stuck on a word or a thought needs to pause in order to let one’s words catch up with one’s thoughts that the sound “urn” is placed in the appropriate pause. Well, although “um” is far from being retired, it has found companionship in a realtively new “filler” which has been surreptitiously working its way into common usage. So prevalent is this “filler” that it has reached and threatens to add epidemic proportions irreparable insult to the much maligned English language. This “filler,” who’s identity has been paradoxically obscured by its over use, is simply the word “like.” But pardon my oversight! I have failed to mention its inseparable commrade “you know.” Both “like” and “you know” worm their ways into a conversation in such a manner as to render it utterly irritating to the discriminating ear. Some or merely folks are afflicted so badly that the inclusion of a part of speech other than “like” and “you know” is to be considered a rarity. Their conversation is reduced to a meaningless blather comprised solely of “like” and “you know” and an occasional noun. Why, you may ask, do I address myself to such a K.B. W. * �Colombian follows coup in Argentina (CPS) Military coups aren’t all work and no play, as the New York Times Argentina correspondent discovered in the wake of that country’s latest coup. Jonathon Kandell found Argentina’s social lions celebrating the overthrow of Isabel Peron at an early morning supper in the exclusive section of Buenos Aires. The guests sat down for supper under a glass chandelier imported from the Austrian empire at the tufn of the century. Waiters, dressed in tuxedos and white gloves, served fish mousse, filet mignon stuffed with raisins and potato souffle, along with red and white wine. Carefully rolled joints of Colombian marijuana followed a desert of cream meringue cake, while guests savored the particulars of the latest takeover. “It was such a quick, dull coup,” one lamented. “Such precision, you would have thought they were Germans, not Argentines.” “My. husband is so happy over the coup that he’s going to pay taxes for the first time ever,” promised an agricultural-machinery magnates wife. - , . Michigan students going gray over school “That kid with the golf balls taped (CPS) under his arms is kind of weird, isn’t he, and how about that girl with the tongue depressor tied to her knee?" "Pretty strange, all right, but have you seen the guy with the aluminum foil pellets in his shoes? You know, the one with the earplugs?’’ These students at the University of Michigan are really not as strange as they seem, even if they are tooling around the campus in wheel chairs more than necessary. It’s all part of Professor Tamerra Moeller’s class on “The Psychology of Aging." “The purpose is not just to find out that it is painful to be arthritic, crippled, or partially deaf,” Moeller explains. "It is to feel the sense of incompetence and vulnerability that many old people feel, and to notice that people treat you differently when you are handicapped.” As for the students, who are also keeping a diary so they can read about their “positive memories” in their own dotage, “few may become gerontologists but they do come away from the course with more empathy for older people, Moeller says. — ire POSITIONS ppllcatlons for: minority Affairs Chairperson Inter-Residence Judiciary WIRR General manager WIRR Administrative Assistant Pick up applications ats IRC6 Office 102 fl So.

However, Kentucky legislators have complained that such measures would destroy the tobacco industry, Under the covers with Playboy What kind of man reads Playboy ? A (CPS) secretive one apparently, who doesn’t want people to know he reads Hugh Hefner’s slick, glossy plaything. That is the conclusion of the recently released Simmons Survey, a yearly study that supposedly determines how many total people actually read each edition of the nation’s 65 leading magazines. “Playboy comes out in a fascinating way on terms of where it’s read,” a Simmons executive told The Wall Street Journal. “It’s amazing how often it’s i* read in someone else’s home.” Only 14 percent of Playboy's “pass-along audience” (as distinct from its “primary audience”) borrow the magazine and take it home, the survey found. Twenty-seven percent read it in someone else’s house and 37 read it at work. Added the executive, “The number of pages opened to is greater than any other publication. The compulsion is to fly through the pages. You don’t want to miss anything.” Among other things, the Simmons Survey also discovered that the biggest winner among the top three weekly newsmagazines is the conservative U.S. News and World Report. Newsweek' s readership was said tohave declined sharply over the past year, and more female readers are turning to Time whose overall readership remained steady, according to the — ■ survey. Open door policy comes to Missouri The Open Door Policy may go into (CPS) effect again, but instead of Chinese trade, dormitory doors are the issue this time. Dorm residents at Missouri Western State College are fighting for a compromise that would allow members of the opposite sex to visit their bedrooms if the door is left open. Vice President Nolen Morrison sees problems in following that course. “I feel that, for one thing, the open door pplicy would be an impossibility to enforce. And who is to say how open tjie doors should be one inch, two feet or all the way?” he wonders. Morrison believes the school’s visitation policy, which forbids women and men to enter each others rooms, “is very liberal compared to other schools.” Establishing an “open door policy” would not be in the best interests of students, he concludes. — — Mickey Mouse Marcos The people that brought you the (CPS) Matterhorn, the Pirates of the Caribbean and other wonders of childish delight are now planning to build a similar extravaganza of fantasy in the Philippines. The Disney empire is planning to develop an “Oriental Disneyland,” according to the newspaper of the Union of Democratic Filipinos. The newspaper added that “only the wealthy few” will be able to afford to explore the new fantasy land. In the three years since Philippine President Marcos declared martial law, prices have risen 300-400 percent, while the minimum wage has increased only 30 percent and unemployment has risen to 35 — Reduced Rates N.J. merchants finding students real curds (CPS) Will local merchants shed a tear if some Glassboro State College students are lopped off the school rolls because of budget cutbacks? No one is sure, but in a move to bolster local opinion against further belt tightening in the financially troubled state, the school has printed up 40,000 cards that students are handing out whenever they buy anything in nearby stores. “1 may not be here to make this purchase next year. Will you miss me?” is the message. — Package of 10 - $3.50 with Student I.D.

The Spectrum . Monday, 12 April 1976 �UB lacrosse begins its spring schedule with win and loss all encompassing factor. Most of their opposition does not consist of teams beyond their calibre. by Gary Charles Spectrum Staff Writer The SUNY at Buffalo lacrosse club is two games into its season and sports a 1-1 record. Easily defeating Niagara University Club 14-4 in their, first game, the stick handlers were then trounced by R.l.T. 13-2 last Wednesday at Rochester. However Coach Wally Davis expects (he team to finish with a (>-2 record. "This is the best team we've had in four years." said last year’s co-captain Gary Passer. Led by midfielder Dave Caplan with six goals, the team is well rounded with plenty of experience. Attackmen Dave Hill and Frank Massera also expect to play a major part in this year’s season. Defensively, returning four year player Passer and teammate Gary Williams will be called on to contain the opposition. University wide The lacrosse team is unique in that all players are allowed to compete in games. It is also one of the most representative teams of the school. Within the last four years of its existence, there have been undergraduates, law, dental and medical students and even professors on the team. In fact, one of the reasons the team refuses to compete on a varsity level is that it would be unable to put in the necessary hours of training and practice to compete with top varisty teams. Since the sticksters are aware of this inability to compete, the players tend to be more relaxed while playing, and the game is enjoyed more for sport than for competition. This is not to say that they don’t wish to win but winning is not an Lacrosse steamrolling Lacrosse is a little known sport that is slowly gaining popularity. Originally invented by the Iroquois Nation Indians, it is a sort of ice hockey on land. Instead of curved sticks, the players use sticks with nets attached to them, and they pass a ball instead of a puck. The talent lies in carrying the ball while the opponent attempts to knock it out of the stick. The ultimate goal is to put the ball in the opponents’ net, past a goalie. Heavy contact, including ’blocking, picking, shoving and pushing are a main reason for lacrosse’s rise in prominence today. Four 15 minute periods of non-stop running make lacrosse exciting to watch. Picking up ground balls while running full speed is another important fundamental of lacrosse maneuver and many games are won or lost by teams’ ability to execute this feat. A professional lacrosse league, exists today although amateur lacrosse is growing due to the low cost of equipment for one thing. A football field, helmets, gloves, arm guards, balls, two nets and sticks are all that are necessary to start a team. Schools in Canada and the northern United States have been playing lacrosse for years. N.C.A.A. playoffs take place yearly. Traditional powerhouses include Maryland, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Hoftstra and Hobart and scholarship awarding and recruiting are actively undertaken by these schools. The lacrosse Bulls will be playing its first home game April 17, against Oswego State at the soccer field. Baseball Bulls split pairatSeton Hall, drop two games at St John's The baseball Bulls’ three day road swing got off to a disappointing start this past weekend. Doubleheaders against Seton Hall and St. John’s resulted in just one win for Buffalo against three losses. On Friday, in New Jersey, the Bulls broke Seton Hall’s six game winning streak with a 10—1 victory over the Pirates. In that game, the Bulls smacked four home runs. John Kidd, Mike Amico, Jim Mary, and Mike Dixon all connected for the big blasts. For Kidd and Dixon, the blasts were their seconds of the seaons Riedel shuts door While the Bulls were scoring virtually at will in the first game, senior righthander Jim Riedel was silencing the Seton Hall bats. Riedel, who was 0—1 last spring despite getting eight starts, notched his first win of the young season by yielding just three hits and striking out six. In the nightcap, however, things did not go quite so well for Buffalo. Yhey had no difficulty scoring runs, but erratic pitching and sloppy fielding made things even easier for Seton Hall which exploded for 13 runs en route to a 13—6 victory. The Bulls had tied the game in the top of the sixth with two runs when the Pirates broke loose for seven of their own. Three errors, three walks, and five base hits proved to be the Bulls undoing as neither Bill Casbolt or Ron Nero, both working in relief, could end the Pirate uprising. Starting pitcher John Buszka was the Bulls’ hitting star in the game, collecting three hits and three runs batted in. Bulls lose twice Saturday was no better for the Bulls than was late Friday. Playing against St. Johns University in Jamaica, New York, the Bulls came close in the first of two games, dropping a 6—5 decision to the Redmen, but again were blasted in the second game, losing 10-4. The Bulls have had trouble in the past against St. Johns. Last year, they dropped a 2-0 decision to the Redmen. The 1—3 roadswing brings the Bulls’ overall record to an undistinguished 7-10, and Buffalo’s northern swing mark now stands at an even 3—3. Buffalo remains on the road this weekend with a doubleheader against Cortland, and then opens at home a week from Thursday with two games against Big Four rival Canisius.

Law students renounced all interest in worldly affairs, retreated to a book-lined enclave of torts and briefs, and emerged three years later, ready to sling legalese with the best of ’em. But their three-year live burial in classic cases prepared most lawyers for only certain kinds of litigation: million dollar divorces, upper income tax returns and trials of kidnapped heiresses, yes. Indicted 13-year-old heroin addicts, injunctions against picketing protestors and evictions of 20-member ghetto families, no. Besides, there were all those expensive law school debts to pay off and a comfortable position waiting with Higgens, Matlock, Johnson, Johnson and Johnson. A good street lawyer was too hard to find, decided a few attorneys. They wanted a school to and at a reasonable price to decrease the shortage students. Enter the People’s College of Law. — — Alternative “If you want to become deputy district attorney or work in the legal department of some corporation,” the school catalog says, “don’t waste your time and ours by applying. There are other schools for you all the others.” The People’s College of Law in Los Angeles prepares its 130 students, nearly half of whom are women and minorities, to work for social change. It’s an alternative to law schools that stress elitism and competition, its founders say. And it’s the only one of its kind. Students pay $350 a semester to attend the new school, which is unaccredited. California, unlike most states, does not require attendance at an — Page fourteen . accredited law school as a prerequisite for taking the bar exam The school’s first year students are given conventional classes to prepare them for the state bar-administered First-Year Law Examinations. The students must pass these to continue studies in an unaccredited school. But in the next three years, they take classes that many say they could find nowhere else, dealing with tenant-landlord law, consumerism, immigration, police brutality, sterilization and racism. Demystifying the law “We’re trying to turn out fully trained people lawyers, lawyers who will go back to thejr communities to practice,” says Henry di Suvero, a faculty member and moving force behind the opening of the school. The emphasis at People’s College is not on past B.A.’s and LSAT scores are not even grades but on the ability to learn, the faculty required say. The school is virtually run by students. Extensive participation in the school’s legal clinic is mandatory. Remedial writing classes are available, as is free child care. All classes are held in the evening, so that students can hold onto current jobs. “What we’re doing,” says Student Mario Vasquez, “Is demystifying the law, saying that it’s not for the chosen few. A traditional law school is very alienating. You go to UCLA and you feel the fear. Professors use the Socratic method of teaching. We don’t play that kind of game. We say, ‘Here is the principle of law and this is how it applies’.” The real test for People’s College will come in two years with its first graduating class. Then its ability to produce graduates who can pass the California Bar Examination reputedly one of the toughest in the country will be gauged. — The Spectrum .

Smith pointed out that the stood at $ 1 'h million before 1970-71, a figure he believes would let the libraries “just about keep up.” budget The University libraries' are having “severe problems” due to an inadequate acquisition budget and the situation' will deteriorate further if an adequate budget is not forthcoming, according to Libraries Director Eldred Smith. The budget crunch that hit the State University system this year, along with the rise in the forced the wage, minimum libraries to lay off a number of hourly staff, mostly students. In addition, the stretching out of resources between three campuses has caused a great many problems for the libraries and their users. Smith said. current Smith said the acquisition budget was cut about $200,000, to $896,000, by the State Division of the Budget last summer. However, it was later about upped to $1,030,000 — Behind comparable schools Comparable schools, such as have UCLA and Berkeley, acquisition budgets in the S2 million range, and are situated near other research libraries that complement their resources. Not only do our libraries lack a nearby research facility. Smith said, but they are forced to subsist on half that level of support. This year’s acquisition budget approximately the represents same amount of money in dollars as was budgeted five years ago, he However, said Smith. cautioned that inflation plus rising purchase costs has led to a large budget cut in practical terms. drawn from the Figures libraries budget request for the current year show that this University ranks behind other large state universities in the number of volumes per student. Our libraries have approximately 59 volumes per student while Berkeley has 152. Illinois State 146. Michigan 121. Indiana 113, and UCLA 111. In addition, Rutgers, Texas. Wisconsin. Minnesota and Ohio State all possess more volumes per student than our libraries do. Staff problems of the libraries’ Many budgetary problems stem from a recent study by the Division of the Budget that found them “overbudgeted” in acquisitions yet underfunded in staff. Smith said. Smith said the recent rise in the minimum wage from $2.00 an hour to $2.30 caused serious staffing problems because the the minimum wage, he continued. facilities problems are not related to the libraries budget, and are of an “interim” nature until the is Campus fully Amherst Smith occupied. state did not allow for this added expense. Much of the library staff consists of students who work at regretted said he some of these hourly positions because students do “very adequate” work and are usually more flexible with hours. The staffing problems have been aggravated by the partial of the Amherst completion Campus. There is an obligation to provide library services at three campuses, he said, leading to inefficient operations, duplication and services, of some inconveniences to users. When the facilities complete their move to Amherst, currently set for Fall 1977, they can be combined and staff can be scheduled more efficiently with less overlap. This will result in better service to users, the Libraries Director asserted. Smith stressed that the current eliminating Some gains Smith went on to say that the challenge facing the major libraries at this time is to increase services without increasing expenditures. He pointed to the libraries’ “uncatalogued backlog,” which is kept in storage at the Bell Facility on Elmwood Avenue and has been cut in half because processing productivity has been doubled.

A large group of students who had participated in the rally held before the meeting filed into the lounge to support the strike resolution but hostility soon developed between the Senators and the group pressing around them. Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Steve Speigel, the Senate chairman, still recovering from hepatitis and difficulty jaundice, had controlling the meeting. Members of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks were angered over what they felt was poor last week’s wording in referendum, in which a one-day strike was approved. The referendum asked students to chose between an ongoing strike subject to termination by the Student Association and a one-day protest. The one-day strike won by a slim 22 votes. The itself, however, strike was approved by better than a 3 to 1 margin. Manipulation The Coalition felt the students who voted against the strike should not have been given the opportunity to decide how long it should be. Because SA did, and because the Executive Committee approved a one-day strike 16-0-1 Saturday, the Coalition charged that SA “manipulated” the results of the referendum because they really opposed the strike and the efforts of the Coalition from the very beginning. Other business on the Senate’s agenda never reached the floor. After the strike vote most of the senators left the meeting or gathered in the front of the room for spirited discussion with Coalition members. SA President Steve Schwartz reported that he and Elections and Credentials Chairman Michael Price had been told by SA’s attorney that tabulating the vote the way the coalition suggested could be illegal. Boo and hiss, etc. technicalities aside, Legal Schwartz said he personally felt the one-day strike was the correct interpretation of the referendum vote, and that the questions were proper. “If a student voted no for the strike, they are still affected by it, so they should have the right to vote on its duration,” he observed. this, like of But most Schwartz’s other statements during the I!4 hour meeting, brought boos and catcalls from the audience. One spokeswoman who supported the on-going strike contended that allowing students who voted against the strike to determine its duration was “letting them vote twice.” “What the hell kind of democracy is that, that’s what 1 want to know,” she shouted. Stand together At one point in the meeting, about 50 angry students crowded behind the table where Speigel and the other SA officers were all demanding to speak. sitting Although Speigel insisted that anyone who waited “for their turn” would be allowed to speak. — —continued on page 18— �x:.: * -I > - Analysis Jackson and Carter winners in latest Democratic primary by Pat Quinlivan Senator Henry Jackson of Washington and former Governor Jimmy Carter of Georgia were the winners Tuesday in the New York Wisconsin and Democratic presidential primaries. In New York, Jackson won delegates, more than any other candidate, but he fell short of the “landslide” he had predicted earlier, garnering less than 50 percent of the total 274. Carter won a surprise victory in Wisconsin by the slimmest of over margins Arizona Congressman Morris Udall, who considered Wisconsin a “must” state in his campaign. The race was so close that two of the major television networks found themselves with egg on their faces, since they had pronounced Udall the winner on the basis of early, 107 incomplete returns. CBS was the lone holdout, and Walter Gronkite told Udall on the air that they thought the race would go down to the wire, which it did. Udall, by that time, had already claimed a victory, which would have been his first. Republican On the side. President Gerald Ford won victory another over former California Governor Ronald Reagan in Wisconsin, by a spread of 55 to 44 percent. The Ford win was his sixth in seven contests, following a Reagan upset in North Carolina.

Also endorsed was Ketter’s appeal that tuition waivers be increased for graduate and professionals to help offset higher tuition costs. Over 1000 grad and professional students will be affected by the Robert Ketter’s state's elimination of SUS and reductions in Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards. Those eligible for the maximum grants will be forced to pay an additional $1800 for their education next year when tuition hikes are taken into account. The unanimous approval of Ketter’s requests sparked no debate among Faculty Senate members. The vote served only as a show of faculty-administration solidarity on the issue of graduate support. - Tenure rights The focal point of debate at Tuesday’s meeting centered upon proposals drawn up by the Committee on Tenure and Privileges. In a 17-page memorandum, the Committee attempted to reconcile traditional faculty rights, mainly tenure and retrenchments in academic programs (implying release of faculty members) made necessary by cutbacks in the State University budget. Tenure priveleges and academic freedom are rights specifically protected in the United University Professional New York State contract. The memorandum states, “At the present time budgets have been generally, and to a degree, selectively reduced. Although some departments have found the results oppressive there have not been drastic reductions in the academic effectiveness of any program in the University. A few programs will be so affected in 1976-77 by the $1,150,000 State University reductions. If a much larger cut is imposed, however, something more drastic will have to be done.” - Bulls-eye The administration has retrenchments several programs it sees as “questionable.” The report of the Academic Planning Committee, which reveals what types of programs are viewed unfavorably, calls for the phasing out or scaling down of several colleges, minority study programs, among others. The Committee on Tenure and Privileges, led by Murray Brown, met with Vice President Robert Fisk yesterday. The results of this meeting were not available at press time, but Brown indicated that although the faculty has no real input into budget decisions, his committee wished to examine the administration's criteria for program retrenchment in the next fiscal year. S The Tenure Committee memorandum also states that many faculty will have to be let go as a result of the current fiscal crunch. The committee proposes that faculty cuts shall be applied “in inverse order of appointment” new faculty go first, tenured later, if at all. Employees in the upper echelon of the University, those holding continuing or permanent appointments, are the most secure. - Disposing of waste Several Faculty Senate members pointed out that the proposed retrenchments lie entirely within the academic sphere. One faculty member questioned whether the administration has yet cut all waste and inefficiency from non-academic areas. In response to this. Executive Vice President Albert Somit insisted that non-academic areas have been cut to the bone, adding sardonically that “the faculty would continue attacking along these lines as long as one janitor remained in the University.” Somit maintained that the non-academic area is an improper area for Senate inquiry. Another faculty member suggested that the Committee should cancel its meeting with Fisk for fear of the Senate being ascribed as having given tacit approval to the retrenchments. He concluded that sipce they cannot influence the administration’s decision, the faculty are in a “no win situation.” This suggestion was not acted upon. History Professor Marvin Bernstein said the Semite Executive Committee is sticking its neck? out'«wkh the administration alt too willing to cut its ncck off from eartqrear; George Hochfteld, Chairman the Faculty Senate infortned the body that the ateai to be affected by the academic cuts have already been The a# Fisk’s budget committee will be transmitted to tbe Prestdanthfcxfcwcek. —Forrest Budget cuts Foreign students fear loss of campus counseling office More’than 100 people, mostly foreign students, rallied Wednesday afternoon in Haas Lounge against the elimination of the Office of ' Foreign Student Affairs (OFSA) made necessary by the State Legislature’s cuts in the SUNY budget. Foreign students expressed fear that they would no longer receive the guidance necessary to cope with the disorientation and "culture shock” which often occurs when students are placed in an unfamiliar environment, in an educational system radically different from that which they are used to. “These services are important, especially for the new students, who feel disoriented, confused, and encounter a feeling of loss,” SA International Affairs Coordinator Colbert Lam claimed. Speakers on a panel which addressed the audience were Vice President for Student Affairs Siggelkow, Richard OFSA Director Joseph Williams, Student Association (SA) President Steve Schwartz, Graduate Student (GSA) Association Treasurer Mong Heng Tan, Mrs. Nobeo of the Buffalo Council of World Affairs (BCWA), and Gilbert Lam and Mohammed SA Malik, International Affairs Coordinators. Decentralization urged The OFSA, which must close July I, was described by Williams as “providing any service, from A to Z, for foreign students.” The functions of OFSA, which will now be included in other offices under a proposed decentralization plan worked out by Siggelkow, include interpretation of visa and immigration regulations and approval of student status, in ter cultUral counseling for adjustment students with problems, and the organization of intercultural educational programs with /. schools, feteign cited a m 'its t All former residents are invited to show their spirit meet & Sunday, April 11 at 3 pm TOWER LIVES!

He spoke glowingly of the potentials now available to foreign students. “We can now provide a more complete service so that foreign students will be able to utilize ail staff personnel from the Student Affairs and Services divisions of the University,” he said. Siggelkow reiterated his position that the abolition of OFSA was done by the legislature, and that this must be carried out. Labeling the legislature “myopic, insular and chauvinistic,” he said that SUNY is a “privincial percent of its institution with students from New York State. We worked hard to get a Democrat elected governor; now we must work equally hard to get. him out." Both SA and GSA officials expressed their support for the reinstatement of the present OFSA. Schwartz called the cut “a surprise” and said that a firm, commitment to fight for the the “misunderstanding what OFSA has done in the past and is doing now.” “Anytime we have a problem, we could go to any staff member and they would help us,” he said. Siggelkow also promised that some form of central information point would be established with Williams as coordinator. He further pledged that all current staff members would retain positions in the University where they will be counselors solely for foreign students in the other campus student service offices. , -V m mv Eureka Coleman Camel Discount Tent and OFSA has been obtained from local State Assemblyman Bill Hoyt.

Goodyear or IRC OFFICE-ELLICOTT E347 Richmond Unionization voting by Food Service workers scheduled Food Service workers may soon be represented by an AFL-CIO affiliated union depending on the results of an employees’ election to be held next month. The Spectrum has learned. Full and part-time workers will vote May 10 on whether they wish to be represented by Local 66 of the Hotel & Restaurant Workers Union. However, according to union officials, workers who are full-time students will not be allowed to vote due to an unfavorable ruling by the State Labor Relations Board. Approximately 206 out of Food Service’s 404 employees are students, according to figures supplied the State Board by Food Service. The last attempt to unionize Food Service workers was made in nts its weekend films 10pm Every Man For Friday ApriJ 9th at 6, 8, Himself and God Against All UUAB — & , May 1974, when a representation bid by the same union failed by an 85-58 margin. According to several Food Service workers, prospects for unionization may have changed somewhat in the intervening two years due to recent layoffs and a larger number of employees now that the Amherst Campus is in partial operation. Students blocked Union officials say the union sought to include student workers in the representation election, but this was blocked by Food Service attorneys who presented legal precedents for their exclusion. However, Food Service Director Don Hosie, denied this charge, claiming the exclusion was by mutual agreement due to the differing interests of regular workers and students. Union officials told a number of Food Service workers attending a meeting last weekend that the usual initiation fee for new union members will be waived in this case. (Initiation fees are charged in many unions, but are often waived when a particular plant first unionizes.) One union leader told the employees that a unionized Food Service would mean better wages, better health benefits, institution of a pension plan, and freedom from petty harassment by means of a grievance procedure. Father-son Hosie told The Spectrum that he believed a union would not be in the best interests of Food Service workers here. He cited a “one-to-one relationship” between Food Service management and employees, and questioned whether resorting to a “third party” would be helpful to the workers. Hosie asserted that Food Service was a non-profit enterprise and that there simply was not any money available to pay higher wages and benefits to workers. “We feel we have a history of providing for our employees,” he insisted. Hosie pointed to pay raises given employees here over the past several years as an additional argument against a union. Also, any increases in wages and benefits would result in higher prices to students as well as other customers, he said. Hosie admitted that “there are businesses where a union will benefit employees,” but he doesn’t believe that is the case here.

East High School Auditorium „ �Nuclear power: is it really a viable economic alternative by Clem Colucci Special to The Spectrum Although a recently-disclosed leak in the Nuclear Reactor facility here put safety in the news this week, the issue was well in the background during a debate Wednesday evening on the of commercial nuclear economics debate, The power. jointly sponsored by Student Association Speakers Bureau and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), pitted two of Niagara representatives Mohawk Power Company, which plans to build its second nuclear plant (Nine Mile Point 2) near Oswego, against two opponents of expanded development of nuclear power. The economics of nuclear ’ power is the slighted side of the nuclear controversy, lacking as it does the emotional impact of poisoning, genetic radiation damage, nuclear calastrophies and the other issues of public health and environmental quality that have spurred most of the heated opposition to plans to build more more nuclear powered and facilities. The generating economic debate focuses not on whether radiation exposure in and around nuclear plants is sufficient to cause cancer, but whether capital costs of nuclear and coal-fired plants are converging or diverging; not on the adequacy of back-up safety systems, but on the amount of “down time” due and outages, corrosion, to refueling. But if the economics of nuclear energy lacks the political and emotional impact of the safety issue, it is still important to power stockholders, companies, government regulatory bodies, and, most of all, to the consumers of electric power, who ultimately will foot the bi(l for any decisions made on how projected increases in demand for electrical power will be satisfied. The current issue of Newsweek reports that of the five major companies involved in nuclear power generating, only one, Westinghouse, has been able to turn a profit. Ironically, since much of the impetus behind nuclear power development came from the Arab oil embargo and recent sharp increases in oil prices, fuel costs, from costs of uranium at the mine to costs of Final word by Ketter Faculty layoffs forthcoming by Charles Greenberg Contributing Editor Eight faculty members of the School of Social Work and four members of the Sociology Department daculty will be terminated at the end of this academic year United University Professions told The Spectrum President Charles Fall Wednesday. The Provost of the Faculty of Social Sciences Arthur Butler could not comment on the specific He said, units slated for personnel however, that President Robert Ketter is expected to make the final decision on which units will be cut on April 12. Levine, Adele Sociology Department chairwoman declined comment on the retrenchment moves within her department. Bernard Greenblatt, Associate Professor of Social Work, said that at a special departmental meeting held on April 6, the Dean of the school, Sherman Merle, announced that eight positions will be cut from the School of Social Work. The total faculty presently stands at 25, so this represents a one third reduction, he explained. Six fired Of the eight positions to be eliminated, three are occupied by non-tenured and five by tenured faculty said Greenblatt. Of five tenured faculty, tow intended to retire this year. This means that six people in the department will actually be fired, Greenblatt explained. One of the more perplexing features of this retrenchment process, according to Greenblatt, was that on April 5, the Social Work Dean told four people that they were being cut. Apparently, the list of people to be retrenched was given to the Dean by April 5, he added. The next day, Fall was told by Thomas Craine, Assistant to the President, that this “should not have happened,” Greenblatt explained. Fall also received a copy of a letter on April 6 from Ketter to Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert Fisk outlining the procedure for dealing with budgetary problems. The development of such a list was not to take place until April 9. A number of faculty members view the preceding events as “Orwellian” Greenblatt said. Procedure outlined The letter from Ketter to Fisk called for nine specific steps in assigning retrenchments to various areas of the University. The first step called for Fisk to send letters to the Provosts and Deans asking them to recommend specific units within their areas for increases or decreases in funding. This was to be tollowed by an April 7 meeting with a subcommittee of the Faculty Senate to discuss the recommendations of the Provosts. The Provosts and Deans who received Fisk's letter now have until today for any further comments. On April 9. Ketter is scheduled to receive formal recommendations from Fisk, the news of which will be conveyed to the UUP. This final decision will come three days later. ‘Select’ consultation The UUP has not been consulted in any matters concerning the retrenchment. Fall charged. The only faculty consultation has been with the “select” sub-committee of the Faculty Senate, he explained. “The impression several of my colleagues received was that this process of retrenchment is designed to present this campus with a speedy fail accompli*' said Greenblatt. The letter from Ketter to Fisk on April 6 allotted eight calendar days for a process to eliminate 143 positions. It appears that the University is trying to act quickly so that the faculty will not have an opportunity to deal effectively with retrenchment, he added. Of the reported 300 cuts to be made in the SUNY system, almost one. half are scheduled for Buffalo. That is a disproportionate amount of burden to place on this University, Greenblatt observed. Some people feel that the cuts have hit several units within this University. While retrenchment is ensuing in some programs. Fall has been told that the Geography, Psychology, and Economics Departments and the School of Management are interviewing for new faculty positions. Job security Another serious issue brought to light in this crisis is that of Academic Freedom and Tenure. The American Association of University Professors in a 1940 report linked thise two issues out of a concern that provessors be able to teach and research without jeopardizing their job tenure. “Security of role and guarantee that it will not be jepardized is a basic component of academic freedom” said Fall. In an advisory bulletin sent to all its members on April 8, UUP stated its position in regard to the loss of jobs. UUP is demanding “clear evidence of financial constrictions which require dismissal action and proof that every other potential saving has been used before [dismissal of] instruction personnel has been taken.” UUP also requested “clear evidence” that a procedure has been followed which meets requirements of the union contract. Lay-offs at the University must be attrubutable to a justifiable cause. According to contract, there must be clear evidence that any layoffs follow a prescribed seniority program. UUP is prepared to monitor all actions in this regard to ensure that no member is victimized by “arbitrary and capricious action by the administration.” —Forrest reprocessing and storage of waste, have risen sharply, making the future profitability of nuclear power problematic. after Shortly Niagara Mohawk’s public hearings on its latest rate hike request. State Affairs Consumer Director Rosemary Pooler relased figures alleging that fuel, safety, and maintenance costs of nuclear power were higher than power comapny officials predicted and would lead to still greater rate hikes in the future. Niagara Mohawk responded with figures of its own purporting to show the opposite was true. ?

Wood led off this attempt to “make sense of the issues of the economics of nuclear power by three options for examining meeting power needs over the . —continued on page 17— State contemplates FSA rent charges by Roberta Rebold Staff Writer Spectrum The State Comptroller’s office has asked SUNY administrators to evaluate the operating costs of their Faculty Student Associations (FSA) as part of a study to determine if the FSA’s should be charged rent for the space they use on state-operated campuses. It is widely believed that charging FSA’s rent could result in a price increase, possibly a large one, for all FSA services. FSA’s, which run on a similar basis on all SUNY campuses operate bookstores, food, vending and linen services on a not-for-profit basis. The individual Board of Directors are composed of faculty, students and administrators. The State of New York presently provides dining room buildings, snack bars, offices and bookstore space rent-free to the FSA’s. But Comptroller Arthur Levitt’s office may soon start demanding rent from FSA’s as part of a search for new sources of revenue in the state’s ongoing fiscal crisis. President Robert Ketter has publicly declared his opposition to any plan to charge FSA rent. So far, however, he has not said what he will do specifically to attempt to block the proposal. Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty said Ketter’s opinion would have some impact on the Comptroller. “Ketter could not stop it, but he would try,” Doty said. How much money SUNY Vice Chancellor for Finance and Business Harry Spindler Said the various SUNY campuses have been asked to evaluate the operating costs of their -FSA branches “to see how much money is involved.” This includes utility (heat and electric) expenditures but not construction costs. Spindler could not estimate how high the rent charge would be. “The issue is presently under study,” he said. “We don’t know what the cost will be yet.” However, he did say that each SUNY campus FSA would be charged separately, and that each charge would be made based on how much the individual FSA is costing the state. Jon Roller, Student Association (SA) Vice President for Sub Board, has dim predictions as to the outcome of the rent charge. “If FSA is charged for space and utilities, prices will go up for students,” he said. “If you’re a businessman and your utilities are being raised, you’ll have to pass the cost on the consumers,” Roller explained. The SA Executive Committee has not yet met on the topic. Roller said he would remain in contact with Doty, and suggested starting a lobby or letter writing campaign against charging FSA rent.

Before the Student Senate, and the many people there who had attended the 3 p.m. rally, was a proposal to prolong hjt Tuesday's strike until the various demands were met and to place the resources of the Student Association at the disposal of the striking students. In effect, this proposal would have invalidated the referendum results, which indicated that the majority of students who voted were in favor of a one-day strike only. Members of the Coalition charged that the wording of the referendum enabled students who did not support a strike to determine its length, thereby allowing them to vote twice. SA stuck by its position that even if a student voted "no for the strike, he/she is still affected by it and therefore is equally entitled to decide its duration. In Monday's editorial, we voiced disagreement with the wording of the referendum, and stated that the ballot should a one-day strike, an have presented three choices indefinite strike, or no strike. We continue to abide by this opinion, realizing that such wording might have sacrificed the 3-1 majority for a less impressive plurality decision.

Friday, 9 April 197b No catch To the Editor: The tone of the April 5th letter to The Spectrum concerning Oakstone Farm reverberated a mysterious and rather macabre translation of the the “ex-resident” experience “living-learning” writer did not feel it was there. The encountered necessary to describe the “unpleasant” nature of his stay at Oakstone Farm., but instead conjured up for the public, visions of unexplained vice awaiting any prospective resident to the Fram. He also failed to include his name among those that could be asked to explain their discontent with the experience. His exclusions tend to form bewildered question marks in the readers' minds but have the right amount of impact to steer them away from actually placing that first phone call which would be a serious omission of the actual facts. Upon contacting Oakstone Farm the prospective resident is welcomed to join the present residents for supper at their place, which provides and excellent opportunity for investigating the practicalities of living on the Farm and to meet face to face with the people one is considering living with. 1 read the “ex-resident” letter with apprehension the day before my visit to Oakstone Farm. Instead of the “catch” I was expecting to uncover somewhere, I found to my extreme pleasure a group of intelligent and wholly responsible individuals guided by Jonathan Ketchum down paths (not of wrack and ruin which the ex-resident hints at) of greater appreciation and expression of the humanities in particular in an informal manner which encourages both listening and participation on any and all subjects (barring the mundane) with an unsnobbishly humorous delivery. Not everyone can handle such an introspective and honest situation. However, that is why Oakstone Farm exists; it is only for those who wish to work at enriching themselves in a practical and knowledgeable mode. Oakstone Farm should not be overlooked because of one person’s mistake of choosing to live there but be applauded for its commitment to pursue intellectual goals.

Bartnikowski �Opening minds Bye bye Panic Theatre To the editor. To the Fdilor. many interpretations of my letter in Monday's The Spectrum lead me to believe that I was less than specific in my presentation (where do I I was sign up for Comp. 211?). The problem bothered by the attitude of a number of students I The — had talked to. They had developed a resentment for the students organizing action against the cutbacks and thus would close their minds to consideration of the problems developing in this University. This prejudice toward the protestors was expressed to me a painful number of times. Since any further battle charges from the protestors would be useless in influencing the thoughts of these students, I took it upon myself to~try to make an impression on them. The letter was meant to express the hopes that these people shouldn’t be insensitive to the issues behind the protests. Clifford Cappelli It don't work To the Editor. I am against the strike that took place Tuesday. It is a purile demand for attention and a free day from school. For a strike such as this to be effective, it should have taken place when it would have meant something; namely, last fall. It is now a redundant issue. I personally voted no for the strike, but voted for an ongoing affair until the issues were resolved. As it is, a one day strike caused only resentments by the community at large. 1 deplore the fact that my hard-earned money (I have returned to get my degree after a thirteen year hiatus), in the guise of mandatory activities fees, is paying for this sophmoric attempt at rebellion. Those of us who voted no for the strike should demand a refund. After all, we’re here to attend classes, why should we be penalized? The issues at hand will be ignored by those in power. A one day strike will be entirely overlooked, and those on the picket lines will be regarded with tolerant amusement. It is too little, too late. If there is cause for a protest (and 1 concur), whole-heartedly it should be done seriously! Name withheld upon request 'THIS IS FUN— I HAVEN'T KEEN HlCUlPEP IN ONE OF THESE SINCE l%0’ there will In case you haven’t already heard be no Panic Theater production this semester. And the reasons behind it involve gross cases of poor — judgment, rewarded with an increased budget! First semester, Panic Theater managed to spend nearly all of its entire year’s budget, (which I understand to be about $3600.00) on its production of A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To the Forum. Aside from the necessary expenses involved in putting on any show, there were several instances of incredibly bad judgement. First, for some unknown reason, the flats which comprised the set were made out of 3/4 inch plywood instead of the at a cost of over usual canvas on a wood frame $600.00! Next came a problem with the cost of renting Sweethome School’s Auditorium. The vague wording of the contract they signed, left open the actual price! Even further, it seems that per agreement, Panic Theater was to remove its set within one. week. Since they had not removed a single nail by the Friday after the last performance the prinicpal at Sweethome ordered his people to remove the set, and billed Panic Theater for labor. So not only did Panic Theater have to pay for its removal, but it could not even make further use of the exceptionally expensive set material. Early in the second semester, I attended a Panic Theater “organizational” meeting. At this meeting, after numerous controversies brought up by executive committee members over who could or could not vote, the play. The Roar of the Creasepaint was chosen as the second semester play. Subsequently, potential directors submitted resumes and were interviewed. I was one of these applicants. While I was told by several Panic Theater intimates that 1 was better qualified, another person was chosen as director. The logic of this escapes me. — , The first thing the chosen director did was to change the show to Bye Bye Birdie, without the membership or the executive consulting committee. While this was going on, the Executive Committee was busily trying to find some way of financing the show. They found it in CAC. CAC agreed to give them something in the neighborhood of $2000.00 in return for a “benefit” performance. After such gross mismanagement first semester. Why were they given more money? And why did CAC have this much money available for something not budgeted? Is it possible that CAC overestimated its budget, and in order to avoid a cutback next semester had to find a way to spend the money? They will say no, but supposedly other groups have also received money from CAC. They play was eventually cast, and after eight weeks of rehearsal so many people had quit the show (supposedly only seven people were left) it was quietly and without explanation, cancelled. When 1 was passed over for the Director’s job, 1 was told that 1 shouldn’t think Panic Theater was run by a clique. Yet it was this clique which raised the problems at meetings, picked one of their own as director, and also once again proved they could not produce a show. Even now, not the President, not the Executive Committee and not any member can account precisely for last semesters expenses or why Sweethome claims they still owe them $200.00! I would suggest that SA seriously look into the funding of both Panic Theater and CAC. In this time when cuts are being made everywhere, money should not be given to groups that cannot properly manage their funds or be given in excess of what is needed which seems to be the case with CAC. I suggest that a serious overhaul of Panic Theater’s organization is needed and a much closer look made into their expenditures. Rick Oechsle The Zimbabwe struggle To the h.ditor The March 29 issue of your newspaper carried a commentary by the Campus Hditor entitled “US Role in Rhodesia Unwise.” While the article expresses certain sentiment to oppose U.S. imperialism and support national liberation, which to say the least confused and we applaud, it is misguided, and does not at all truly reflect the situation’ in southern Africa and Zimbabwe. We would like to point out that in March, the Buffalo Student Movement invited The Spectrum to interview Michael Mawema. the Organizing Secretary of Zimbabwe African National Union, the organization which has historically led the armed struggle for liberation of Zimbabwe, when he was in Buffalo. The Spectrum passed up the opportunity. While The Spectrum refuses to publicize the views of the actual fighting people of Zimbabwe, it does print this article which can only sow confusion about the situation. We criticize The Spectrum for this activity. We point out that; 1. The slogan of ZANU is WE ARE OUR OWN LIBERATORS! The freedom fighters of Zimbabwe, which your commentary slanders as “poorly trained” and an ill match for the Rhodesian armed forces, have shaken the racist regime of Ian Smith quite seriously in recent years and are currently preparing for the final offensive to finish off imperialism, colonialism and racism in Zimbabwe. The armed struggle for the liberation of Zimbabwe, initiated in 1966, is in excellent condition, the camps of ZANU are over-flowing with freedom fighters, and it is precisely these African people who are liberating themselves from oppression. It is the African people who hold the key to the destiny of Africa, and gun in hand are seizing this destiny away from imperialism. It is not only in contradiction with the facts to suggest that the Zimbabwe freedom fighters are no match for Rhodesian reactionaries, it is chauvinist and insulting to the valiant African people. Recent history, particularly the victories of the Cambodian, Laotian and Vietnamese peoples, has definitely proven that a small nation can defeat a big, a weak nation can defeat a strong. The African people who are dealing telling blows against the racist Ian Smith regime of Rhodesia are bound to liberate their nation from imperialism, colonialism and racism in the near future. 2. To promote, as you do, that Soviet through the medium intervention into Zimbabwe has anything to do with of Cuban puppet troops liberating that nation is to turn truth on its head. You point out that: “If the U.S. government backed liberation movements in the Third World, instead of aiding their enemies, perhaps it might have some moral standing to attack Cuban and the Soviet Union for interfering militarily in Africa.” Now, of course, the U.S. imperialists oppose Soviet military intervention in Africa, just as the U.S. imperialists — - — — opposed Japanese military intervention in Asia. This however, is a most feeble and pointless argument by which to justify Soviet intervention in Africa, as your article clearly seeks to do. People who have sentiment to oppose imperialism and support the liberation of nations and peoples must oppose all imperialist, big power interference and intervention into the affairs of small nations and oppressed peoples. In today’s world, it is not enough to oppose just U.S. imperialism; one must oppose both superpowers. The Russian superpower, which carries the sign-board of “socialism,” is no less an enemy of the world’s people, and its crimes have included the invasion of Czechoslovakia, support for the fascist dictatorship of Indira Ghandi in India, and provoking of civil war in Angola. These crimes have been denounced by the freedom loving peoples of the world, led by the People’s Republic of China and we would suggest that People’s China surely has the “moral standing” which you require to oppose support one social-imperialism. T5 Soviet superpower in its contention for world domination with another superpower, simply because it carries the banner of “socialism” (as Adolph Hitler did), and to pass this off as anti-imperialism simply will not do. The oppressed people are increasingly awakening to the danger of Soviet social-imperialism, and their sentiment can only be summed up as “IF YOU COME TO US WITH A HAMMER AND SICKLE ON YOUR CHEST, AND FASCISM IN YOUR HEART' WE WILL KILL YOU JUST THE — SAME.” 3. We American people must recognize our duty to support the oppressed peoples in their struggles for liberation and independence. Most especially, we must render them support because it is “our own” government which attacks and opptesses the peoples of the world. We in the Central Organization of U.S. Marxist-Leninists put this principle into practice and fully support the armed liberation struggle of the African people of Zimbabwe. We call upon all progressive and democratic people to do the same and render to the fighting people of Zimbabwe both political and material assistance. Part and parcel of opposing supporting national liberation is chauvinism chauvinism which refuses to learn and about the struggles of oppressed peoples; chauvinism which denigrates the fighting abilities of oppressed peoples. In this respect. The Spectrum would perform a service to the oppressed people of anti-imperialist people southern Africa, and everywhere, if it would: 1.) stop confusing the situation in southern Africa and Zimbabwe and learn something about the people’s struggles; 2.) stop supporting the Soviet social-imperialism as it has done in recent months on the matter of Angola and now on Zimbabwe; 3.) start supporting the struggles of the oppressed people by propagating their views, instead of ignoring them. - from Buffalo Student Movement (COUSMI.J Friday, 9 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page seven �The circus is in town To the Editor. “O judgement thou art fled to brutish beasts, and Men have lost their reason.” So says Mark Anthony in the funeral oration from Julius Caesar, and had he been to the Student Senate meeting of this past Tuesday, he might have said much the same. All sense of probity, and decorum that should be present at a meeting of the Senate was gone and it is this writer’s opinion that, because of this, we all have suffered. r I, and many others, were the witnesses to the ritual murder of dialogue, discussion and deliberation. The Student Senate, the legitimate deliberative body of the Undergraduate Student Association, was turned into a French Revolution tennis court! Students fighting one another, grabbing microphones, refusing to listen, heckling each other, and generally being at each others throats is not a good sign anytime, but most especially when a pointed discussion is the order of the day. The strike, an issue that had this campus brewing for at least two weeks and had at least 300 students working long hours with no compensation or cooperation, was most ineffectively dealt with by all parties concerned. Both sides knew what they wanted done but neither side made an effort towards an adequate dialogue. Assessment of the effects and outcomes of the strike had to be made and yet because of the circus like atmosphere of Haas Lounge, this could not take place. Where we go from here in terms of any kind of action against the tuition increases and room rent, hikes is anybody’s Message in the art country is celebrating the bicentennial many of our fellow citizens are not being given proper consideration as to their feelings or are being ignored altogether (to me, this seemed particularly appropriate in the case of the Indians). It seems most people with whom I have spoken about the drawing are in agreement with these last statements and saw no slur in evidence. But the purpose of this letter is not to defend or explain my drawing, Ms. Moessner. The real purpose is to say that if your perceptions tell you that this was a “dumb-vicious looking” Indian 1 drew, then that’s your hangup, not mine, and not one to which I have to cater. It is this kind of singleminded, stereotypical image which people automatically bestow on a commentary like mine that serves to perpetuate the prejudices and guilt-feelings to which you allude in your letter, Ms. Moessner, not simply the fact that the commentary was made. To the Editor. Yes, I did it. It was I who really drew the Indian Wednesday’s The Spectrum that you, Henni last in Moessner, refer to in your letter of April 7. As far as my artistic motives are concerned, I tried to live up to the best tradition of cartoon characterizations. Would you view Pat Oliphant’s depictions of President Ford (which have his head resembling a wrinkled potato) or Uganda's President Amin (which makes him appear to be a blimp about to burst) or Ralph Steadman’s Patty Hearst (which has her looking like a creature from another planet) as racist or just “making fun?" If you do then you miss the point. The point is that these artists are making comments on society. My rendition of the Indian was no less. The message I tried to convey was twofold; I) foremost, to satirize the bicentennial, which is rapidly becoming a pompous bore to many people (including me), in commemoration of April Fool’s Day and 2) to point out that while the guess. The fault for the whole turn of events is not the issue. Rather, it is the fact that those, on both sides, who wished to discuss, rationally and intelligently, the whole issue in all its views were denied their proper forum and more importantly, their rights. Disgust, frustration, and fear can only be the products of such a situation. Let’s hope that in the future we will remember that any issue, whether blase or controversial, can only be dealt with and discussion, through adequate planning important cooperation. We have done irrepairable harm to ourselves through the events that transpired in Norton on Tuesday. 1 hope that was the end of that kind of behavior. Only then will we know that mischief will not be afoot and take what course it will. Bob Budiansky Spectrum Graphic Arts Editor Jon Rollc S./4.

UUAB mini folk festival —it came together nicely I wish that the Fillmore Room hadn't been so crowded on the first night of last weekend's UUAB Mini-Folk Festival. I wish that the people who took the opportunity to get raucously drunk had gone to a bar if that was how they wanted to spend the evening. And I wish that Ken Bloom had shown up (with reservations, though; explanation on the way, hang on). But that's about where my negative impressions of the- Festival end. It would be more misleading than accurate to spout any inspiring homilies about the Festival as an affirmation that folk music in Buffalo hasn't been swamped under the tidal waves of jazz, disco, and heavy metal. (For a start, a good deal of the Buffalo folk scene goes back to New York City every summer.) Still, with the weekend Coffeehouses doing generally well but nevertheless not extremely certain of their acceptance by the public, it was encouraging to see the Festival concerts sell out the first night, and come very close to doing so the second. Encouraging? Even the people who just came to see Leon Redbone or Michael Cooney got some exposure to several people who were close to and who came off very well unknown to them indeed. It was a lot like the way the first Mini-Folk Festival went in November ofy'74; the "names" were at their best, everyone else on the bill rose to the occasion, and things leveled out at a high mark of excellence. — . §• Fairy tales can come true I have a Ruby Keeler go-on-in-place-of-thebroken-legged star story to tell. Scene: the Saturday night concert, with Ken Bloom unexplainably absent. A friend of Owen McBride's from England came to the Festival to see Owen play; his name, Mike Harding, a popular singer in Britain in his own right. Responding to an eleventh-hour appeal to fill in, he agreed, and proceeded to tear the house apart. He’s a thoroughly professional performer, full of the boisterous, blustering humor of the London music hall, leavened by modern urbanity. In moments, the whole room was singing along on a song whose chorus consisted entirely of "nyah," gleefully groaning to some truly horrid jokes ("To all hello"), of the nymphomaniacs in the audience and joyfully watching him deal with a beery heckler 'is cage"). (" 'E's only 'ere cause they're cleaning The verdict of the delighted audience: get this man here for a real gig! Literally, Mike wa the Festival's most talked-about performer. Not that anyone else was exactly left in the dust. Debby McClatchy's range is formidable, from Ireland to Nashville to Appalachia.

Flash-paper fire at his fingertips, tight and intricate Reverend Gary Davis-style guitar knitting up his 20's and 30's blues/jazz reincarnations that conjure illusory surface noise in the background. Old friends, new grass Some familiar Coffeehouse faces did their customary turns. Michael Cooney was, well, Michael Cooney, polished, eclectic and delightful, especially in his two-story songs "The Arkansas Traveler" and "Cumberland Mountain Bear Chase." Bill Staines provided His enjoyable blend of original songs, breathtaking yodeling (as much from himself as the audience), and the inimitable (thank God) "Staines Trumpet Concerto" which, as you know, is done without benefit of trumpet. The most contradictory feelings were brought out by Saturday's closers, the bluegrass Good Old Boys. Mandolinist Frank Wakefield, faith-healed from a tumor some years back, alternated a somewhat overdone down-home humility with an occasional bit of soft-sell evangelism; he could recite the Bhagavad-Gita for all I care, as long as he plays the mandolin the way he does, both in the grass idiom and his own experimental instrumentals which leave finger marks on the scruff of your neck. I'm happy to report that Billy Hamilton's Bluegrass Almanac has tightened up considerably in recent months, having added a flashy young mandolinist to allow Hamilton to move to the fiddle. They came off better by a good length than Dr. Zaroon's Amazing Breathing Machine, a bunch of good musicians who swamp their music in stage trashiness and Jim-Kweskin-Jug-Band mannerisms. Pieces of time Moments . . . many moments Offstage: Hamilton's band going through "Orange Blossom Special" on one side, Owen McBride and friends singing British ballads on the other; the mixture was beautiful in its contrast. Bob Rodriguez demonstrating a strange — — "pocket instrument" — his mouth — by tapping on the sides of it and playing everything from "Pop Gpes The Weasel" to "The William Tell Overture." .(This just after Debby McClatchy teaching a. dozen semi-flabbergasted onlookers how to play the spoons.) Brainstorming in—ii Name confusion was understandable, what with Bryan Bowers and Brian Bauer both on the Friday night program. Let's clear it up now; Bowers is the Segovia of the autoharp (that push-button zither that only a half-dozen musicians can play interestingly); in both his playing and acapella singing, his enthusiasm and, by damn, happines.s were gloriously irresistable. Bauer is the clarinet hound who masterminds Dr. Jazz and the Ukelele Ladies, fast becoming the hottest thing on the local folk scene with their blend of ragtime hokum and Dixieland blues, tacky costuming (everything from Hawaiian leis to tinfoil Bob White tossing a surprise into a fine set of a great sea Carter Family and railroading songs shanty "Save Your Money When You're Young."

And the Dirtwater Fox, because of his easy-going personality, talks himself out of sticky situations like any good comic hero should. Although the plot could have been conjured up 20 or 30 years ago, the language used is definitely 1970's-ish; the Duchess and the Dirtwater Fox refer to certain characters as "el "asshole," and the profuse use of profanity throughout the film might make some parents wary of sending their kids to see it. So, if we take pleasure in the conventional material which Hollywood can always pull from its mythological nose-bag, and if we take pleasure in seeing how this mythology can be rendered to fit new times and new stars, then we may take some pleasure in this cinematic dish of plastic fruit. The saving grace of the movie is its comedy and a surprise ending, but if you have to pay more than a dollar to see it, well, you might try McDonald's. It's playing at the Holiday 5 Theatre.

Bernstein (Simon & Schuster, 456 pp.), which appeared in Newsweek, 5 April the first of a two-part series. Originally slated to be released next month. The Final Days is now available at local bookstores. — When the TV serial Rich Man, Poor Man ended a few weeks ago, the public needed something to fill the void. Newsweek came to the rescue with selections from The Final Days', it is a Dickensian-style magazine serialization of the as dramatic and ominous "unmaking of as its title, a systematic stripping away of one man's dignity and privacy. In short, a Fletcher Knebel novel come true. The Newsweek selections read like a novel, and a rather racy one at that. The accompanying artistic renderings of dramatic moments provide peep-hole glimpses through the closed doors of the White House. The Final Days will be good, fast, provocative reading; the only thing wrong is that its authors seem to have assumed the role of omniscient novelists, claiming at the same time to be objective reporters. In the news story preceding the first magazine installment, Newsweek reporter Peter Goldman describes the work as "principally an act of reporting, carefully unjudgemental in tone; its power instead lies in its camera-eye view of the state of Nixon and his beleaguered Presidency in its last long slide from grace." If, in fact. Woodward and Bernstein are "carefully unjudgemental in tone," they do not let this get in the way of good drama; by skillfully editing the observations of their 694 characters, the authors have created a kind of narrative "voice-under" instead of merely relying on a reporter's typical narrative convention a kind of — voice-over. I ■ | | ■ Dear Friend: In accordance with Jewish Law, all "Chometz" (Leavening or derivatives of same) may not be in the possession of a Jew during the Passover Holiday. This includes breads, cakes, noodles, cereals & most alcoholic beverages etc. Therefore, it is traditional, that a Rabbi is made an agent to sell all "Chometz" to a non-Jew for the Passover Holiday. You can make this arrangement by signing and mailing the attached note to CHABAD HOUSE. There is, of course no charge for this service. I hereby appoint Rabbi Heshel Greenberg (or his agent) as my agent to sell all "Chometz" (leavening etc.) that is in my ■ possession. i I I ■ If the excerpts are any indication, Woodward and Bernstein have crafted a smooth narrative in The Final Days', from the paraphrased observations of all the people they interviewed, overlaid with direct quotations and pieces of the transcripted Watergate tapes to provide an air of veracity. They neatly steer clear of libel by sprinkling the narrative with insulating words:, Maybe he'd [the President] follow through on his often-repeated threat he would burn the tapes and resign . Nixon seemed to be trying to reach out to — | . ■ — [Italics mine] NAME What is more: this manner of narration is cleverly subtle in the way it suggests what it cannot without danger assert. In a casual literary manner, for instance, we are made to watch the President with ADDRESS • I CITY PHONE DATE SIGNATURE Henry Kissinger: Send this note to CHABAD HOUSE, 3292 Main St. Buffalo, N.Y. 14214, to ARRIVE before April 10, 1976 or at the very latest April 13, 1976. They sat for a time and reminisced about events travels, shared decisions. The President was drinking He said he was resigning. NO TE: If "Chometz" has not been sold it must be destroyed before Passover. For more informatin regarding all laws pertaining to Passover, call Rabbi Guary at 833-8334 or Rabbi Greenberg at 837-2320. Before long Woodward and Bernstein turn the bottle upside down, in effect, by telling us “the President was slurring his words. He was drunk." And after the Supreme Court ordered the President to turn over 64 subpoenaed tapes to Judge Sirica: Prodigal Sun m J [Italics mine] . each person as if to convince himself that this was his team, Harlow thought . .'1 don't have a pistol,' the President said sadly, as if it were one more deprivation in a long history of underpriviledge. As if he were asking to be given one. . I Ronald Ziegler, the President's press secretary watched the televised announcement of the Supreme Court decision from his suite at the Surf and Sand overlooking the Pacific. As the morning breakers crashed a hundred yards below his window, he scratched some notes on a yellow legal pad. He knew he would be spending the morning with the President, fashioning some response. Nixon would drown him with requests for more and more information, for alternatives. Such figurative language is really the precinct of the novelist, not the reporter. Unlike journalists, novelists create new worlds and have the power to define natural relationships. By employing a style closer to fiction than reportage, Woodward and Bernstein frequently defy every law of objectivity. The Final Days promises to be a psychoanalysis, after the fact, of an unraveling man. Piece by obvious piece, Richard Nixon is laid out on the analyst's couch: Buzhardt believed he had seen Nixon with his defenses peeled away. The tapes provided a dark, almost Dostoevskian journey into Nixon's fears, obsessions, hostilities, passions and inadequacies. Simon was reminded of a wind-up doll, mechanically making gestures with no thought as to their meaning. Haig said the President was a battered man, strained to his limit. He compared Nixon's distraught behavior to that of Captain Queeg, the erratic Naval officer in The Caine Mutiny. —Anita Finkelstein Friday, 9 April 1976 The Spectrum .

Prodigal Sun �Kleinhcms concert Peter Frampton is alive and welland number 1 Peter Frampton is gleefully surfing the cresting tidal wave of his current popularity. Rolling Stone Magazine has emblazoned his pretty features on its cover in its current issue and Peter's latest outing. Frampton Comes Alive, is numero uno with a bullet on most charts. Recording pundits and hype masters would have you believe Frampton is the star of the seventies. Certainly, as of now, on the strength of his popular appeal and financial solvency, all indices seem to point in that direction. But what about Frampton's artistry? Just why is Frampton enjoying this deluge of adoration, acceptance, and applause from a diverse audience that spans the pubescent pack to the somewhat maturer college crowd. There is no doubt that Frampton has persistently labored at cultivating a following which would springboard him into the limelight. Constant touring and five albums have, like a tenacious title contender, finally brought Peter to the summit. But why? Somehwere in this sea of rhetorical questions floats an answer. Perhaps the answer can be found by delving into the psychology behind the release of Frampton Comas Alive. Peter saw that the time was right to place most of his chips on a live album that would a number of things accomplish Right off the bat it simultaneously. wouldn't entail a strain on Frampton's creative powers in coming up with new material. The best of his old material could be packaged in a greatest hits form except it would have the distinction of being in presented a live format. Any semi-studious pupil of rock knows the output monsters. FCA not only appeals to the legions who were present at the recorded gigs but allows fans unfamiliar with his early work to catch up just by buying the new album. This finely wrought strategy is FCA is a soundtrack of greatest hits complete with an audience that cheers, whistles and screams as if they were primed with amphetamine or potential bozos ready to devour Monty Hall on the set of "Letf's Make A Deal." Frampton's acoustic numbers are so often swamped in the audience's verbal overload that it distracts from the performance at hand. The production is too uni-dimensional and flat. Frampton's band hardly distinguishes itself and instead it settles into a rut of stolid mediocrity. Particularly irksome is John Siomos' constant reliance on his unimaginative cymbal playing. Frampton Occasionally unleashes an worth the hardly run but it is inspiring through to wade this or time price collection to ferret out. The ballads taken from Wind of Change come off sounding pale and fatigued on FCA. Frampton even makes the mistake of trying to stretch "Do You Feel Like We Do" in a 17 minute opus. The result is a primer in cliche ridden rock jamming. It falls flat on its face. paying huge dividends. Frampton's most ingenious works are his early albums. Wind of Change and Frampton's Camel. Wind of Change is an ethereal yet snappy Ip that captures Frampton's best songs with crisp vibrant studio and a star-studded cast. Peter's forte is his airy and jazz oriented guitar lines which forsake the oversaturated market of heavy metal masturbation. Something’s Happening and Frampton are not nearly as good as Peter's first two outings. Frampton's ideas grew stale and this is pointedly indicated by his tune "Doobie Wah"; a tribute to and steal from the Doobie Brothers. Peter's lyrics which have always bordered on the embarrassing have now become maudlin and sentimentally swept away. The quality facets of his music have been scrapped for a common denominator approach. Frampton's artistry has been moving squarely towards the middle of the road. His music is now as safe and challenging as a G-rated picture crafted by Disney. Frampton has found his market. The lure of FCA owes a lot to the current paucity of good commercial talent. Frampton has cleverly managed to fuse a large part of his FM flock with the more commercial crassness of an ever burgeoning AM army of loyalists. What is a tremendous coup in sales has left a cancerous blotch on Frampton's recorded production performances impact of a well-timed, live recording. After all, the Allman's Live at the Fillmore was the catalytic agent for their success. More immediate to Peter's own frame of reference was Humble Pie's Rockin' the Fillmore record which thrusted the Pie from relative obscurity into momentary by Frampton has made things entirely too and himself tension, little consequently at work here. If you creativity, or surprise icon the more a guitar are looking for be of choice would Nelson Bill appropriate Be Bop Deluxe. Sunburst Finish has FCA thoroughly outclassed. It is somewhat annoying to realize that FCA is being critically received. The. album is nothing more than cake for the masses. Those who need it are eating it.

Stampede, their pevvious and best album, was a culmination of out-and-out rockers and countrified ballads that gets a workout on my turntable at least two to three times a week. Every couple of songs had a different person doing the string arrangements (including Curtis Mayfield), which accounts for a pleasant variability. Takin' It to the Streets is a complete about-face no strings, the return of the Memphis Horns (last heard on What Were Once Vices, and the addition of Michael McDonald, formerly a studio backup singer. All these moves are disastrous. The biggest mistake was letting McDonald write half of the material on the album and then sing it. First of all, he doesn't write the songs the Doobies are known for. He writes pretentious ballads that aren't the slice-of life folkies done on the previous Doobie efforts. Second, McDonald should remain a background singer because his lead vocals are too muffled and aren't exactly the most stimulating to listen to. The Memphis Horns are good accompaniment, especially in concert, but they are not needed for the entire album-. Some of the tunes that are played need strings to give them a sweet effect which they need. A few of the songs, besides being corny, have arrangements that are just bad. "It Keeps You Runnin'" (a McDonald composition, of course) sounds pretty stupio with the "up and down clavinet effect that is used throughout the song. "Rio" gets bogged down with a schmaltz arrangement that reminds me of the Mann-Weill hit "On Broadway." But what gets the Doobie Booby Prize is "Carry Me Away," a cliche tune about the "new sound of St. Louis jazz in 1959." It ends off with a clarinet solo to remind us of the type of •4 - Un-cola man stages his effervescenc The University Office of Cultural Affairs and Studio Arena Theatre wrap up their Spotlight Series with a performance by Geoffrey Holder, best known to American audiences as TV's Un-Cola man. Holder achieved national prominance, as well, by winning Tony awards for the direction and costume design of the Broadway smash musical. Wiz. Holder first came to New York from Trinidad in 1953 with his own folk dance company, and the following year danced on Broadway in Truman Capote's House of Flowers. His paintings hang in Washington's Corcoran Gallery, as well as in the homes of such luminaries as Marietta Tree, Lena Horne, and William F. Buckley. For two years Holder was principal dancer of the Metropolitan Opera Ballet, and has choreographed works for the Dance Theatre of Harlem and Alvin Ailey; in August he will mount a new ballet for Mexico City's Ballet Folklorico. He has appeared on film in the James Bond advanture, Live and Let Die, and Rex Harrison's Doctor Doolittle. He has also acted extensively on TV (besides winning the Clio award for his Un-Cola commercial), and has served as guest theatre critic for NBC-TV news. Holder is author of two books, one a re telling of West Indian legends, and the other a Caribbean cookbook, which he illustrated himself.

What's going on? The two best cuts on the album, "Wheels of Fortune" and "Eighth Avenue Shuffle," are what I have come to know the Doobie Brothers for heavy driving percussion, smooth gliding guitars and intertwining vocals. Why couldn't they do this on the other seven cuts instead of messing around with — inappropriate styles? Takin' It to the Streets is one of the few albums that makes me downright mad. A group like the Doobie Brothers shouldn't be in this sort of predicament. Someone made the wrong decisions and did them in.

PDQ Bach play to horror of audience M by Karen Szczepanski Spectrum Arts Staff . / <3$^ oik Professor Peter Schickele was in town last Friday night, to enlighten local audiences as to the worth of P.D.Q. Bach, unknown twentieth son of J.S. (especially to J.S.). If Kleinhans Hall and the Buffalo Philharmonic are still operating in his wake, P.D.Q. certainly isn't to blame. The first composition, the "Desecration of the House" Overture (S. 10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1) was canceled because the sheet music had been sucked up into the air-conditioning unit and was circulating around the building somewhere. It later appeared (floating down from the vents) during the third number. The "Hincfenburg" concerto (S. 3-3-3), a similar disaster, featured a sand-block solo in the "allegro gigantico" section and a flute-tuba duet in the "presto so-so" section. The middle "largo pericoloso" (dangerously slo ) section was filled with rests so long that one was unsure when the end had finally come. Dogs and gurus A rare treat for many music-lovers was the Canine Cantata: "Wachet Arf!" (Sleeping Dogs Awake!") (S.K9), with hounden-tenor Dietrich Fischer-Bauau. As Prof. Schickele explained, animals were once a part of every orchestra, although in recent years the practice has declined somewhat. Although the houndentenor slept through most of the Arietta, "Ach! we, ach! we," he gave a stunning performance of the aria "Bau! Wau!" and a truly lamentable rendition of the Lamento "Au!". After a much-needed intermission, the program commenced with Echo Sonata for Two Unfriendly Groups of Instruments (S. 999999999). A group including flute, bassoon, and clarinet, which was situated on the stage, was answered (and sometimes ignored) by a trombone and French Horn situated on the balcony. The literal interpretation of the term "unfriendly" in this piece resulted in the stage manager levelling a shotgun at the group on the balcony. (This was quite uncalled for. After all, what do these swine know about artistic interpretation?) solo The much longed-for final piece was the infamous Concerto for Bassoon Versus Orchestra (S. 8'). Although bassoon solos are rare, a competent bassoonist could not be found who would agree to play this piece. Undaunted, Professor Schickele learned to play the bassoon in five days, and performed the solo himself. Defects in the Professor's bassoon kept the audience from noticing how horridly the orchestra was playing in the "break allegro" and "not-so-fast" sections. Unfortunately the bassoon was fixed in time, for the "rondo alia turkey lurkey" section. The Professor's playing really brought the house down, as angry music lovers grabbed seats and other objects to Schickele throw at the stage. All in all, a quiet dignified evening at Kleinhans.

If they would be they would never have needed that kind of weapon." The rest of the album is slow paced. Harris sings the song "Talking to Myself" in a very mellow style. Many other performers sing this song too. It must be a good song to use as filler material. The last song on the album, "What's the use in the Truth," has a particularly striking melody. The first time I heard it on the radio, it stuck in my mind all day. "What's the use in the truth if you can’t tell a lie sometime?" It gives you a lot to think about.

As soon as you hear the first song on the album, "Movin' you can't help but nod your head or tap your you have to do fingers; something! This is a brand new group with a genuinely unique sound. I think the group will go far. The group purposely gives all their songs a one word title "Movin'", "Peeklii'," "Changing," "Love," "Talking," and "Dance." Each song seems to give you a personal invitation to jam with Brass Construction. The group consists of nine talented brothers. Each possesses the skill of playing at least one instrument and singing vocals. Randy Muller not only arranged the album, but he plays all an album. Although the album features Danny Kortchmar on guitar and , Jim Keltner on drums, the disc is far from another folk-countryrock release. Instead, these alumni of albums ranging from Wind on the Water to Clapton to explore the current rage of jazz and soul. with bassist Paul Along Stallworth and keyboardman David Foster, Keltner and Kootch try to develop a sound quite removed from the usual realm of their musical world. It comes off sounding like a cross between the Average White Band and one of those "Order now and receive the great disco hits of the seventies." The Average White Band influence is most welcome when it appears, because for the most part, this album is a bore. This is the unfortunate, because themselves musicians have proven own * capable in other extremely conditions.

Coal reserves, Wood asserted, were barely adequate to supply planned expansion of coal-fired plants.

Green $iad power generation in New York State was expected to increase from 3.8 to 4 percent annually to 1985. During 1975, power use jumped only 3 percent, but residential use and percent climbed 4.2 use rose 5.6 percent. commercial These increases were offset by a 12.3 percent decline in industrial use which Green attributed to the recession. As the economy turned around, Green argued, industrial consumption would pick up and “there will be increasing demands for electric Dower,” the began Romanoff anti-nuclear half of the debate “to make a case for delay.” He , - — ‘Little experience’ The average “capacity factor” is 58 percent, said Komanoff, but for the large (1000 megawatt and larger) plants power companies want to build, the figure drops to 46.6 percent. Komanoff emphasized that tWese figures apply only to the /first eight years of a reactors/fO—40 year productive life, and beyond that “we have ... little expereince with the operation of nuclear reactors.” The oldest 1000 country reactor the is in megwatt one 3Vi years old. He urged delay to give the capacity problem futher study. Komanoff also said conservation was a more promising approach than Wood and Green suggested. According to Romanoffs figures, electrical power consumption jumped 7-8 percent in the first half of 1975, but in the second half, when of nuclear reactors consumers presumable had time to begin adjusting to higher fuel and power costs by replacing older -appliances and industrial with more equipment energy-efficient models, consumption rose only 2 percent. Resnikoff followed with an analysis of fuel costs, which make up 25 percent of the cost of nuclear energy. He said costs are “rising precipitously,” citing a jump from seven dollars a pound for processed “yellowcake” uranium in the early 1970’s to the current market price of over $40 a pound. Resnikoff also predicted both short-term and long-term supply problems leading to further cost increases. increase to $750 million, the total costs close to dollars. these Following all four presentations, remarks, further gave elaborating in previous and fielded questions well-prepared The debate ended without; reaching a settlement, reminding on£ of George Bernard Shaw’s aphorism: faIf you took all the economists in the world and laid them end to end they still wouldn’t reach a conclusion.” small, audiervtk. bringing a billion initial speakers mostly figures, from a At the “back end” of the fuel cycle, the reprocessing end, Resnikoff said, the problems were even greater. “There are no [reprocessing] plants presently operating in this country,” he said, which has forced nuclear plant operators to increase the capacity of their muclear storage pools at great cost to handle this “nuclear constipation problem.” He expressed skepticism that reprocessing plants would ever be feasible, citing the Barnwell South Carolina plant Jointly owned Allied Chemical and Golf Atomic.

Schwartz sat motionless throughout most of the meeting, but claimed he was prepared to defend the ailing Speigel if he had been faced with physical violence. The resolution, which would have also required SA to give its political and financial support to an on-going strike, was introduced by Vice President for Sub Board Jon Rollor. Roller said he had not decided whether the on-going strike was a good idea, or whether he would support it. But he sard he introduced the resolution because he knew “it probably wouldn’t have made it otherwise,” and wanted to encourage discussion. Representation Roller asked the students and Senators to assess the one-day strike. ‘‘How effective were we? How well did we get our demands across? How effective would an on-going strike be?” , —continued from page 1— . . . “Neither the Senate nor the Coalition can claim to represent that mass of 13,000 students who aren’t here,” he insisted. Members of the Coalition, however, seemed to feel that the “apathetic” students should not be considered, and that the Senate should base its vote on those present who supported a strike. “We’re the ones who care about our education!” an onlooker called from the back of the room. Charges were made by several students that the Coalition is not an open organization. Senator David Brownstein felt his ideas were “quashed” at the Coalition meeting he attended. “My opinions weren’t listened to. Why the hell should i go to another Coalition meeting?” Senator Andrea Gableman criticized the wording of the resolution, which stated, “in a mass meeting today, we the undergraduate* students of SUNYAB have voted overwhelmingly in support of a prolonged student strike to win our demands.” “1 am an undergraduate student,” Gableman said. “I wasn’t at any mass meeting. I want to know what makes them (the Coalition) think they’re so representative.” Coalition members countered by insisting that their meetings, including the rally, were open to anyone and all opinions were considered. Rollor eventually voted against the prolonged strike. Most of the points he had hoped to discuss were not mentioned again, or only lightly touched upon. In analyzing the Senate’s overwhelming rejection of a continued strike, one observer recalled last year's Student Assembly. “The Senate is a better of people and cross-section representation than the Assembly was,” she said. “The special-interest groups are represented, but so are many groups who can swing either way on an issue.” Schwartz said before the meeting ended that he could not accept the Coalition’s position that students not actively opposing cutbacks should not be considered. “I don’t think the Senate has the power or the right to throw the results out,” he said.

Friday, 9 April 1976 . �Values must change Manipulatory efforts Antagonizing behavior To the Editor: To the Editor: To the Editor. In response to the Guest Opinion of 4/5/76 by Robert Dowrey: 1. Please do not suppose that Stephen Knaster has never contributed to wildlife concerns. Perhaps he, like many of us non-hunters, give whatever money we can spare to such causes in addition to the time spent writing letters to legislators, protesting current issues like the slaughter of whales, and trying to make our daily lives an example to others. I also fail to see the reason why a person, not able to afford charitable contributions and/or who cannot spare the time from survival to publicize his o.r her views, is not entitled to an opinion which differs from yours. We do not pay for the privilege of expressing opinions in this country. 2. There are areas of severe over-population of some species in certain places. Disease and famine among the animals is frequently the result. Instead of exhausting all other alternatives, the solution has often beer to automatically kill them. The relocation of females, one such alternative, has been done successfully; the problem, of course, is that killing them is much easier in terms of time and I would like to take this opportunity to call to the attention of the students of this University that they have the right to express their opinions, and the right to vote, especially on a question of a student strike which directly effects all of us. The Spectrum and the Coalition would deny these rights to those students who disagree with their views. Both. The Spectrum and the Coalition have expressed their desire for a strike. The Student Association has chosen to be impartial, to conduct a Student referendum, and to follow the expressed wishes of the students. If we as students are to decide to have a strike, can we deny this decision will affect all of us, should we deny the right to partake in the decision-process to those who are not in favor of the question? Yet both The Spectrum and the Coalition feel those students who were not in favor of the strike should have no voice in determining its’ length. It was my understanding that if the majority favored the strike, then all students would be expected to support and participate in it. If we are asking students to involve themselves in a united effort, then all of these students have the right to decide the length of such an action. To deny the right to vote to students who have a direct interest in the results of a referendum is not democracy, but money. Over population is often caused by the spread of settlements which pushes the animal population into smaller and smaller spaces. We can continue to do this, thereby, furnishing an ongoing excuse to save the poor animals from starvation by killing them, or, we can control our own growth and do all we can to repair the damage already done to our envifbnment in the name of progress. I would not choose to kill the starving hoards in Calcutta in order to save them. Would you, Mr. Dowrey? Values must change. There is a promising rise in the numbers of vegetarians and those who in general arc looking for ways to live that are not necessarily the easiest or cheapest or most profit making. I agree with you that there is an hypocricy involved in those who eat the flesh of butchered animals, yet argue with you over your right to hunt. 3. You mention that hunting is a “relaxing sport” and I will infer that you enjoy it. (Correct me if I’m wrong.) I have the least argument with those who hunt for survival in an environment that does not furnish enough alternatives to the protein required for health. If 1 found myself in such a position, I too would probably hunt. The difference, Mr. Dowrey, is that I would not enjoy it. I would always be aware that I was taking a life to extend my own, and consequently would respect it, not waste it, grieve my necessity and thank God for the opportunity to survive. I am grateful everyday that 1 can maintain my health and not eat meat, througn the abundance of other food available in the U.S. You feel differently than 1 do. 1 must decide to what extent I should push my views on you and others, or infringe on your desire to kill. I would indeed have to keep my views to myself if only the rights of the two of us were involved. But there is a massive third party present that has the right to live ju: t as we do. When we recognize this (and it took me a long time and a lot of internal conflict to accept this), a deer or a baby seal will no longer be regarded as objects of sport, like footballs, or as means to satisfy the selfish habits of meat-eating and human • manipulation. — fur-wearing human beings. Steve Spiegel Executive Vice President Student Association Be a citizen Well, now that it’s over, what was done? 1 mean the strike. Other than skipping classes to enjoy a what was accomplished? beautiful spring day Nothing! Unless your hand is squeezing someone’s wallet, a strike has no effect. Does Ketter care if we miss classes? No. Does Albany care? No. Do the legislators who made the cuts care? No. We all made a big noise and raised a lot of ruckus here on campus to show we care but how does that help? As The Spectrum quoted Richard Siggelkow, “This type of procedure doesn’t usually have much effect on the legislature. I think it is self-defeating. We encourage any appropriate form of dissent.” Let’s make ourselves heard in a way that can’t be ignored. If everyone was willing to contribute write a letter to Carey and one $.26 to save $100 legislator. Instead of being a “student” be a citizen. You’re a voter make your wishes known.

Oakstone Farm is not a boarding house and has no landlord. It is a small community of scholars and students dedicated to the principle that a total living experience, including disciplined conversation, is essential to the learning process. We try to be radically honest about our assumptions and open to others’ scrutiny. We share in the maintenance of the physical plant, an education in itself, and take on the Such absurdities which took place at this “I did not vote in the Student Association elections; and your Executive Committee is not representative of the action that I would like to see take place.” Listen, if you don’t get off your ass to vote, you have no right to criticize the manner in which the S.A. is handling this matter. Furthermore, to the people who feel that a crowded Haas Lounge is representative of you are dead wrong. 700 13,000 undergraduates people do not dictate what the other 13,000 will do. To top off the afternoon, the ignorance of one student who took it upon himself to verbally antagonize one student senator upon her vote of not to continue the strike, further reinforced my feeling that the Student Association was justified to call the meeting to an end and to call an end to the strike. meeting was the person who said — leap This letter is in response to another former resident’s letter concerning Oakstone Farm that appeared in The Spectrum on Monday, April 5." 1 find myself in total agreement with the sentiments of fact harassment).

Rather than being the combined * the Farm and its proprietor, Mr. Ketchum. Mr. Ketchum, offering students the prospect of enriched education, a rural environment, and dinnertable conversation that will make their heads spin (and their stomachs turn), plainly seeks to dominate them in an authoritarian manner, always asserting that he has their best interests at heart. In the past, he has never really clearly defined his relationship to and actual status in the University. His elaborate pamphlets and propaganda techniques have led unwary students to believe that the University is in full approval of all his activities and sanctions his Farm without reserve. Indeed, it has led many to believe that the Farm itself is part and parcel of the University. Let’s clear the air a bit. Mr. Ketchum is only a graduate student at the University who teaches a four credit seminar as pari of his Fellowship responsibilities. Although the seminar is often taught at his residence, Oakstone Farm is not adjunct to the University. I ask those people entertaining thoughts of Mr. Ketchum’s Farm as an alternative living-learning experience to be very careful in the selection of Oakstone as representative of the alternative that they truly desire. Ask yourself a simple question, but ask it more than once. Why would a 45-year-old graduate student seek to live with younger students, 20 years of age?

For Mr. Reagan, the loss means that he will simply maintain his number two status in the polls, and that Mr. Ford will now open up a 167 delegate lead in the race toward the final tournament in Kansas City this August. On the Democratic side, Tuesday was a night of surprises in the Wisconsin Open as well as the New York Classic. In Wisconsin, Morris Udall, still seeking his first tour victory was nosed out by a great stretch drive by Jimmy Carter. Carter, leading the league in most wins by a candidate for 1976, scored a narrow 37-36 win over Udall. Also finishing were Number Four ranked George Wallace, number Henry Jackson, two ranked franchise Ellen expansion McCormick, Number Five ranked Fred Harris and unranked Bentsen, independents Lloyd Birch Bayh, Milton Shapp and Sargent Shriver. But in New York, things were tougher for Carter. He was easily disposed of in the Classic by both Udall and Jackson. Hubert Humphrey, who by maintaining amateur status cannot receive any delegate points but can compete for personal satisfaction, also outscored Carter. In fact, Carter managed only 33 delegate points in New York, considerably less than Udall’s 69, and Jackson’s tournament-high score of 107. Although no official tally was that kept, estimates showed Humphrey finished with a score of 34 in New York. The Democratic League standings really tightened up after Tuesday’s action. Carter is still on top, but Jackson, Udall and Wallace are all closing. Also, rumor has it that Humphrey may shed his amateur status in time for League the Democratic championship tourney in New York this July. Carter was not disappointed with his poor showing in New York. He explained that his mind simply wasn’t on the New York Classic. He spent only about $150,000 on training expenses for the classic, and he admitted that he entered the tourney just to keep his handshaking in good condition for future tournaments. Meanwhile, at the Essex Hotel and Pr«T Shop, New York victor Henry Jackson fielded questions from an enthusiastic press corps. We now have a special report from Murray the where Essex by/ Fleischmah is standing Murray, are you there? “This is Murray Fleischman at the Essex House and Pro Shop here in midtown Manhattan. I’m having trouble hearing, what with the thousands of loyal Jackson fans chanting ‘Scoop! Scoop! but I think I can get the Senator over to the camera for just a minute.

For master’s degree candidates the decline is 25 percent; for doctoral candidates, 32 percent. third. The biggest drop in job offers appears to be for students graduating with degrees in the humanities and social sciences.

The drop in engineering and business fields is puzzling, the council said, because estimates from employers last November indicated that job prospects were expected to be good in those fields. Accounting, banking, insurance and chemical and drug companies made about the same number of offers as last year, while offers automotive, rose from the machinery, electrical research-consulting and tire and rubber firms. Starting salaries at the BA level range from an average high of $16,788 for engineering students to $8,580 for humanities majors, the council said. One bright spot in the council’s report was that undergraduate women received 27 percent more job offers this year than in March of 1975.

They've got a long way to go. In a world that isn't easy. But with someone's help, they'll make it. What they need is a friend. Someone to act as confidant and guide. Perhaps, it could be you as a Salesian Priest or Brother. The Salesians of St. John Bosco were founded in 1859 to serve youth. Unlike other orders whose apostolate has changed with varying conditions, the Salesians always have been and will be, youth oriented. Today we’re helping to prepare youngsters for the world that awaits them tomorrow. Not an easy task but one which we welcome. And how do we go about It? By following the precepts of our founder, Don Bosco. To crowd out evil with reason, religion and Kindness with a method of play, learn and pray. We’re trying to build better communities by helping to create better men. As a Salesian, you are guaranteed the chance to help the young in a wide range of endeavor... as guidance counselors, technical and academic teachers, as coaches, psychologists in boys clubs, summer camps as missionaries. And you are given the kind of training you need to achieve your aims. The Salesian family is a large one (we are the third largest order) but a warm one. A community with an enthusiastic family feeling where not only our talents are shared but our shortcomings, too. If you feel as we do, that service to youth can be an important mission in your life, we welcome your interest. — TRAFALMADORE CAFE — female summer subletters for beautiful, spacious house on Minnesota Ave. (5 minutes from campus ) Includes washing machine, $50 plus.

There was little correlation that could be drawn between the number of people picketing and the number who simply stayed away from classes. Over 100 people, according to Coalition and outside observers, stood on the picket lines in groups of threes and fours, beating signs urging students not to go to class. If students had to attend class, they were asked to wear decals stating; “I am under duress,” to show their support for the strike while in class. Reactions vary Reactions to the pickets and to the strike in general varied. Although many people entering Norton Union yesterday morning were doubtful of the effects of the strike, most seemed sympathetic to the strikers’ efforts. A good number of students in terviewed Wednesday morning said they were staying out of at least one class in support of the strike, but attending those classes they deemed most important or in which tests were being given. “I don’t think it will accomplish anything.” said one Cafeteria, early morning coffee drinker in Norton Union “apathetic about the strike situation.” At 9:45 a.m., picketers outside Faber said that “student response is poor.” “Many people are being nasty,” said one striker. “They disagree completely with the strike.” But he said Farber building employees did express their sympathy for the strike. Duress decals A picketer in front of Acheson said that almost half the students there were taking the “I am under duress’’ decals, but that the classes, hallways and walkways in and around the building looked crowded. Exactly how many students stayed out of classes and away from the Main Street Campus is difficult to determine. Haas Lounge, normally very crowded at 9:30 a.m., was three quarters empty at that time yesterday. There were many seats available in the main floor cafeteria of Norton Hall, which is never the case during weekday morning hours. Employees at the candy counter in Norton Hall noted, “It is much slower here this morning. There was nobody waiting on line when we opened up.” There was a noficable absence of corwds yesterday morning at the bus-loading platform next to Diefendorf Annex. Refering to the number of students riding the Effectiveness Spokespeople from the Coalition estimated that the strike was up to 80 oercent effective in shutting down the University. Their estimates were based on reports made by strike marshalls, circling the campus on bicycles. The marshalls confirmed classroom closings in different buildings on campus, noted student response to picketers, kept tabs on the number of students riding the buses, and supplied picketers with signs, leaflets and decals. President Robert Ketter said in response to a question, “In fact, several teachers, those who were taking attendance, noticed that there was no decrease in the number of students in class.” Richard Siggelkow, Vice President for Student Affairs, told a radio reporter, “This type of procedure doesn’t usually have much effect on the legislature. 1 happen to think it is self-defeating, although I do understand why the students feel so strongly. We certainly want to encourage any appropriate form of dissent.” At presstime, Coalition members were preparing for a mass rally in the fountain area behind the Union. “At this rally,” emphasized one Coalition spokesman, “the students will decide if they want a prolonged strike or not.” �Despite no strike vote grad students pleased Members of the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) were satisfied with the results of last week's strike referendum, even though it fell 17 votes short of the 325 required for a walkout. The important thing, they felt, was that an overwhelming majority of Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants (GA) did, in fact, vote to strike. Spokespersons for the GSEU interviewed Monday cited a variety of factors that led to the result, including fears by TAs and GAs over losing jobs, and the late point in the semester in which it was held. One spokesperson stressed that for many TAs and GAs, it was almost impossible to strike without being penalized for such actions. “Some departments really keep their eyes on their students, and in these cases, students wouldn’t get their lines,” he said. Last week’s Reporter, whose headline indicated that unionization would be detrimental to graduate students, was cited as a positive and negative factor in the vote. While GSEU members believe it caused the loss of some affirmative votes, they say it may have also kindled an anger in people that compelled them to vote. One spokesperson stated, right through the article. It was “Most of the people I spoke to Students opinionatedon cuts explained, "Cutbacks are happening all over; isn’t being singled out.

The University signed a contract with the Department of Defense to construct Project Themis on this campus in order to conduct research on man’s ability to perform tasks underwater for military purposes. Because of the growing opposition to U.S. involvement in Vietnam, student groups, such as Students for a Democratic Society, were working to terminate all military-related work at the University. When the Buffalo Police entered Gark Hall, the students on the basketball court decided to leave peacefully, and some went over to Hayes Hall to confront Acting President Regan over the issue of armed police on campus. In 1969, students took over Hayes Hall for one day and night, to protest the war and the .University’s complicity with it, and Were forced out in the morning by hundreds of armed Buffalo Police. Following that event, a committee of students, facut and administrators convened to settle disputes before the city police intervened. Rock thrown With police still on campus, a crowd of about S00 students formed in front of Norton Hall near Cooke and Tower Halls. Sporadic fighting between the students and cops took place for a couple of hours, while windows in several University buildings were broken.

Our Weekly Reader II The Viking Process Norman Hartley (Simon Schuster, $7.95, 285 pp.) , & lives in terror that Peace will show the film to Julia. Hartley is undoubtedly inventive: Mr. swallowable radio transmitters, Rental Excitement, Guerrilla Week, a portable pyramid whipping frame. And then there is the sex scenario, and Haldoxicon and the Indian Fields scenario, and the graffiti bomb. Oh, the graffiti bomb is beautiful. Russell and another kidnappee a friend of his named Gellman are attending a class for Vikings in explosives and demolition techniques which is being taught by a 15-year-old American girl. She calls the graffiti bomb “the most gorgeous urban guerrilla weapon ever invented.” We can well understand her enthusiasm: you mix a can of a certain brand of talc with water and a lump of plastic explosive, spray it with feminine deodorant spray, and it is armed. For the intense flame necessary to set it off, you use a paint which is part napalm and part phosphorus, ignited by a rifle bullet fired from a distance. The marksman is gone before anyone realizes what happened. Really, it is a very good idea, and the description of this lesson is one of the most delightful sections of the book. Mr. Hartley doesn’t have the art of fiction quite down yet, but it’s safe to say he’ll get there. The Viking Process might have been improved if Hartley had employed an omniscient point of view rather than 'the first person. Too many of Russell’s masked because they emotions and reactions ar could not be credibly stated in the fii$t person. Ah, well. This is not a bad book, and Mr. Hartley shows great promise as a novelist. I eagerly await his next attempt. He need only improve a little If you were to believe the promotional material, The Viking Process is a novel that should have you glued to the pages, hanging onto the edge of your seat. Regrettably, this is not strictly tru&r Since it is his first novel, some of Mr. Hartley’s errors can be excused. But there are added difficulties: he worked for an international wire service for over a decade, so his words form a style not entirely appropriate for a novel; it is perhaps too stark and flat. It is possible to call The Viking Process a science fiction novel, much in the same vein as The Andromeda Strain or Brain, Wave. The basic story is this: Sometime in the not-too-distant future, a British academic authority on terrorism and urban warfare, Philip Russell, is blackmailed very skillfully by a group of very young, dedicated, well-trained and very well-funded terrorists called the Vikings, led by one Simon Peace. They plan to utterly destroy the third largest multi-national corporation in the world. Intermark. Why the Vikings kidnap Russell and hold his wife to insure cooperation is never adequately explained; he Seems to exist only to see Peace use his books to kill people more efficiently. Peace holds Ju.ia Russess somewhere in Scotland. He says he will kill her if Russell does not cooperate but he never tells Russell to do anything. Apparently the Vikings want Russell as their front man, ostensibly the “guerrilla commander” of the Vikings, an imposing figure for the novel to focus its attention on. As it is, Russell sits around for 240 pages mumbling, “Oh, my God! How did I get into this mess?” His answer is that it to be very good. Linda Ruth Pfonner was all his own fault he had been indiscreet with a certain Michelle in Montreal, and he should not have done that. It had not only been a betrayal of Julia, Linda'Ruth Pfonner is a sophomore English major but Michelle had gotten it all on film.

Graduate students, who were employed as teaching assistants began to organize a Teaching Assistants Union. The Colleges, just in their infanacy, had been under attack by the Administration. The students demanded that the Colleges by preserved and expanded. Twenty students involved in the strike were suspended, and a Temporary Hearing Commission of Campus Disruption was established by the University Council on March 1, headed by dr. Robert Ketter. Shortly after the strike, Ketter was named President. 1 Center was established on campus. Additional student demands included an open admissions policy, the creation of an integrated work force by hiring minority workers to build the new campus, and the demand that the new campus be built in downtown Buffalo, and not in Amherst. Mass movement Students and some members from the community attempted to create a Worker’s College, to offer labor oriented courses for the people of Buffalo.

Court will decide on lawsuits against Coop The State Supreme Court will decide within a week whether the Student Association (SA) is a “concerned party” in Cavages’ lawsuit against the University to close the Record Coop. SA, in its court papers, contends that as funding agent, it is the real party of interest.” The Coop may not l>e adequately represented by the other involved parties, the paper explained. SA claims it has an interest in the property at issue and has spent considerable sums of money to “create and maintain” it. If Cavages’ suit is upheld, the money spent by SA would be “irretrievably lost,” the court papers continued. It is widely believed that if the Cavages endangered. suit is successful, several other student services will also be Court to issue a Supreme asked a State In February Cavages temporary injunction to half the operation of the Coop. University Counsel Hilary Bradford said that a successful action would compel a complete shutdown of the Coop. Problems settled When the suit was filed there were several problems to be out before precedings could continue. The University had to decide whether it wanted Bradford, State Department of Education Attorney Walter Relihan, or a member of the office of the State Attorney General to represent them. The State Attorney General’s office was chosen. Another question was whether Cavages has legal standing to sue, Bradford said. In order to sue, a person must be both interested in and concerned with the matter in question according to law, and “aggrieved” or hurt by it. The Coop opened this semester under conditions set by President Robert Ketter which included a yearly sales limitation of $ 120,000 or $10,000 for month. This ceiling was set despite projected revenues of $240,000 according to Bruce Insana, Coop director. He added that these limites do not include sales tax, which amounts to roughly $50 a day. As soon as the daily sales limit is reached, the Coop is closed. The daily sales limit varies monthly depending on the amount of business days in the month. The inventory at the beginning of the semester was $22,000, according to Insana. On October 31, 1975 it stood at $60,000. Additional problems have been caused by the introduction of these restrictions, Insana said. Due to the Coop’s limited hours, students with afternoon classes cannot patronize it, since by the time their classes end, the Coop is closed for the day, he explained. Because of the limited business hours, many of the Coop’s suppliers have difficulties making deliveries, and orders are not received promptly, according to Insana. Deliveries of desired albums are often delayed, so students very often must wait weeks before ordered albums arrive, he added. Working conditions have deteriorated at the Coop, due to crowds caused by its limited operating hours, Insana said. Ineligible for benefits ACLU defending vets given bad discharges The American Civil Liberties Union, long a defender of civil citizens’, is currently taking action on behalf of a number of veterans of the Vietnam War who were given “bad” discharges without ever having been convicted of violating any laws or regulations. The ACLU has taken up more than 150 cases involving veterans who were given general discharges for “character and behavior disorders” while in the service. There are approximately 100,000 vets who would be affected by a victory in just one of these cases. Most of these men were summarily dismissed from the service without the benefit of a trial or hearing. One of the major causes for these bad discharges was protests made within the service, against practices and procedures which the soldiers felt were unfair. Rather than investigate the allegations, the military usually labelled the protesters unstable and gave them dishonorable or undesirable discharges. A consequence of this discharge, for many veterans, was that they became ineligible for medical care from the Veterans Administration. Since there are almost half a million Vietnam vets who received bad discharges, this is a problem which affects thousands of vets with physical disabilities and emotional troubles caused by the war. Discarded and forgotten The case of Thomas Andrews (not his real name) is related by the ACLU as an illustration. Andrews was wounded in Vietnam in 1968 when a mine exploded near him. Fragments were sent into his legs, stomach, chest and head. After the shrapnel was removed from his body, he still could not see out of his right eye, but the Army ignored his protests and placed the 19-year old on active duty in the United States. Andrews went AWOL several times in search of medical and emotional help, and was drummed out of the service without even a hearing. Because he received an undesirable discharge, the VA refused him needed medical services which were necessitated by his wounds. In 1971, Andrews had his right eye removed in a city hospital. The ACLU took up Andrews’ case, and in June of last year, the army was forced to upgrade his discharge to an honorable one, he was awarded a SO percent disability benefit for life, and he will now get the medical treatment he needs, free of charge. This case was a landmark decision in the area of veterans’ rights, one of the ACLU hopes it can follow up in the near future with other favorable decisions. Wednesday, 7 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page five �Who cares? EditPHa! _ To the Editor: I missed classes again today. Maybe I’ll go tomorrow. Orderly and dignified The campus had a strange aura of tranquility about it yesterday morning. Many classes were half empty, or cancelled, buses between the Amherst and Main St. campuses were only partially filled at the height of tfie morning rush, and there was an unusually sparse gathering of people taking in the warm, sunny day by the Norton fountain area. Yet there were glimpses of activity hire and there to remind us of the significance of the day. Small groups of picketers, carrying signs which said STRIKE or FIGHT THE CUTBACKS, paraded by the various buildings while others handed out leaflets and flyers or stopped by the Coalition headquarters in the Student Association office to find out what they could do to help. Meanwhile, volunteers from SA were manning a voter registration table in the Norton Hall Center Lounge where students could obtain the names of their local legislators and important legislative I wish she would get back. I’ve been trying to reach her for a while now. I want to find out how she’s doing. She’s probably at the SUNY budget cut rally at Ellicott. The budget cuts are the concern of few around here. Nobody cares if they pay an extra one or two hundred dollars. "Despite how inexpensive the school costs are, a hike in tuition, room and board fees are against our right to a happy existence. That was fought for by our forefathers 200 years ago, and bicentennially speaking, don’t they deserve another two hundred. I’ve been checking out the range of Presidents lately. We have the disgusting dull Ford, but Carter is worse. The man is a total nothing with a non-existent platform. He hasn’t stood for a single thing thus far. He just wins primaries. The only solid thing he represents is clean teeth. 1 heard someone speak in front of an audience on busing today. He took over a budget cut meeting and rambled on for 20 minutes about the event he wants to occur in Boston. He also wants to be the next Martin Luther King. He’s a walking, talking ego. “Look at me,” he says. I should go check out the scene in the room. She will probably be in the room hanging out. He’ll be in there too. He always hangs out there. He always hangs out. Both of them hang out. They don’t give a shit about school. School doesn’t meaaa thing to them. They’ll get married and hang out for 50 years maybe 80 if they’re not blown up by then. We could be blown up if the buttons are in front of the wrong person. 1 know someone capable of making it there. He’s an army career man. He lacks something in intelligence. He’s a dumb guy, worse than Hitler, because now, six million would be a token slaughter. We could all die soon, but then again who cares??? Name Withheld Upon Request Misleading impressions It wasn't a noisy strike. People didn't yell and scream or break windows and attempt to take over buildings or disrupt those at work.

Occasionally, the silence was broken by a voice over a loud speaker telling anyone within hearing range that they should go outside to show their support for the strike.

So what did we accomplish? The administration says nothing. A waste of time. And it could be, if it ends here. We must not return to classes today and forget a strike ever happened. Follow it up with letters, phonecalIs to your local legislators, to the media. Speak to SA. Go to Albany. Lobby. Stick together. Yesterday, students here struck for education. Let's continue the effort to ensure that our education is not struck down The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 73 Wednesday, 7 April Editor-in-Chief 1976 Amy Dunkin - Managing Editor Richard Korman Advertising Manager Gerry MeKeen Business Manager Howard Greenblatt — - In reply to David Krevor’s letter (5 April 1976), I would prefer to think of myself as being guilty of ethnocentricity, lousey writing and bad judgement, than of regressive thinking. I am a third year graduate student in English. I gave up my fellowship this year so 1 could be Bibliographer for the American Journal of Computational Linguistics. Back in the days when I was TA, I was also a card carrying member of GSEU (No. 32). I am presently doing layout for the GSEU Newsletter. I was writing from my Ethnocentricity: experience of graduate study in the humanities; i have no knowledge of how study in the natural and applied studies is structured. Few humanists, Phd in hand, who are applying for their first academic job have had articles published. 1 suspect that intellectual maturity comes later for humanists than it does for those working in highly mathem,atesized disciplines. Hence publication comes later. My impression is that graduate students in the sciences typically work on research projects with their instructors and that they are listed as co-authors on any publications resulting from that work. Similar opportunities are not available to for the discipline is structured humanists, differently. Very few articles or books are co-authored and being a Research Assistant means being a bibliographer. You hunt in the library for material of use to the person with whom you are working, but you generally don’t participate in the writing of the paper. Lousey Writing, and Bad Judgment: I really wanted to rpake a point about intellectual maturity (that most first and second year graduate students don’t have it). And I made the mistake of implicitly equating the ability to write publishable material with intellectual maturity. Intellectual maturity implies mastery of a field of knowledge, and few new graduate students have that. Getting published doesn’t necessarily imply mastery of anything (i.e. I don’t know about Chemical Engineering, but many articles in humanistic journals aren’t worth the paper they’re printed on). And knowing a specialized field well enough to publish in that field doesn’t imply mastery of a broad base of knowledge. 1 do not think it is patronizing to assert that first and second year graduate students are intellectually immature. One goes to graduate school to acquire that level of mastery and the implicit assumption is that all faculty members are, in virtue of their higher level of training, at that level. I believe the assumption holds in most, but not all cases. There may be some graduate students who are more competent in a given area than the professor who is supposed to be teaching that subject; but such cases are surely rare. I never meant to imply that graduate students are anything less than productive adult members of society. If what I wrote said otherwise, then I apologize for the misunderstanding.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 7 April 1976 . �..’ov/'uO odV v i §g • - Guest Opinion by Robert Dowrey Correction: In Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported in the editorial, “Botched Again” that a state-wide student strike is set for April 26. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is planning a strike for April 28 to coincide with the SUNY Board of Trustees meeting but nothing final has been set. Misleading editorial To the Editor: This letter is in response to the editorial “Botched Again” in Monday’s (April 5th) The Spectrum. The Spectrum editorial opposed the wording of the undergraduate strike referendum, and rightly so, but it goes on to accuse the “Coalition to fight the cutbacks” of not doing the same. This is incorrect, because on several occasions prior to the Student Association’s decision oh the wording of the ballot the. Coalition insisted, in fact it demanded, that it be the students on strike who should determine the character of the strike. We have consistently made this position public. Further, The Spectrum asks what happened to the “promises of workshops and teach-ins” to inform the students about the cutbacks. In fact the workshops did go on and most of them were well attended. The issue of a student strike and the entire question of budget cutbacks affect all members of the University community in the most profound way. It seems to us that The Spectrum should give it priority coverage so that the fight for the restoration of the budget cuts can built effectively. We look forward to working with The Spectrum in our common objects. The Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks You'd better vote To the Editor. The article, “Election Circuit Being Shunned by Students,” The Spectrum, April 5th, irritated me greatly. How can students possibly say that there is no issue to vote upon? Are not budget cutbacks and high unemployment sufficient issues to get riled up over? How can any student be so irresponsible as to say that the economy doesn’t affect him? When he leaves school and tries to find a job, he will realize, only too well, that the economy does affect him. Fellow students, you represent an enormous amount of potential voting power. If you don’t get off your asses and vote in November, then you deserve for your next President any schmuck who enters the White House in January. I felt that. The Spectrum did a terrible injustice to the hunters on the campus and in this area by printing the article by Stephen Knaster in the March 29 issue. The article was titled “Hunters Thoughtlessly Murder Helpless Wildlife.” I felt that there were many refutable “facts” in that article. Mr. Knaster quoted both Peter Singer and Geveland Amory without telling that they are both fervent anti-hunters and would have a very biased opinion on the subject. I could quote from the NRA (National Rifle Association), but I 4e£eat. my whole argument: think obviously are hunter-biased. Instead, all of They come from the National Wildlife arguments my Federation, of which I am a member. The NWF maintains a neutral stance towards hunting. Mr. Knaster calls hunters “insensitive human beings.” I don’t consider myself insensitive, nor do I believe does my family or friends. He also implies that hunters are' sadists. Once again, I don’t consider myself a sadist, nor does anyone else I know consider me a sadist. I consider hunting a relaxing sport where I can be with nature. Mr. Knaster might also consider the fact that man has spent ov6r 99 percent ofhis history as a hunter. Mr. Knaster also uses the term “hunters and environmentalists.” Are not hunters environmentalists also? For years hunters were the only organized proponents pf wildlife conservation! Shortly before the turn of the century, for example, members of the Boone and Crockett Club took the lead to help establish and later to protect Yellowstone Park. Hunters also contribute nearly all of the money to the conservatiPn efforts of the government. In 1935 hunters voluntarily agreed to pay a 10 percent tax on all guns and ammunition. This money goes to purchase and preserve wild lands. I might also ask Mr. Knaster when was the last time he contributed anything but hot air to the fight to save our wildlife. I did last time I purchased a hunting license, $5.25 for a big game license and $11.25 for a combination hunting and fishing license. Many hunters also pay extra for a bow hunting permit and for duck stamps to hunt ducks, this in addition to what 1 pay! All this money goes toward conservation. This is paid each year. Last year it totaled over $70 million for conservation. Mr.- Knaster makes another questionable that hunting quote, “one thing remains clear has been the sole reason for the extinction or near extinction of hundreds of animal species.” Is it relaly so clear? It is a fact that of the 74 bird species and 35 mammal species on the Interior Department’s endangered species list, not one is hunted legally. There are more deer and wild turkey in the United States today than ever befory in our history. The urban public unable to tell a white-tailed deer from a-moose, simply associates hunters with dead animals and dead animals with threatened wildlife. The fact seems to be that killing, not hunting constitutes one of the most contentious issues. Anti-hunters express amazement that anyone who purports to love wildlife can kill it. Ira Gabrielson of the Wildlife Management Institute has this to say: “I doubt that those who advocate letting nature take its course have ever seen a deer in the final stages of starvation; a fox, hairless, scab-covered and blind from sarcoptic — > V* *> >. « j j^S D V mange; or a racoon in the final stages of distemper. These arc nature’s method* of population control. Properly regulated hunting can avert these tragedies by reducing the population highs and raising the lows.” The National Wildlife Federation states that the chief reason for the declining state of wildlife is due to habitat loss, not hunting as Mr. Knaster states. The use of pesticides also constitutes a danger to wildlife. The use of DDT neatly destroyed the brown pelican population in Louisiana. Mr. Knaster also questions the use of hunting as a legitimate tool of wildlife management. Hunting foes argue that in many cases wildlife adapt to its surroundings without the hunters’ attentions. Furthermore, they contend that hunters generally cull the biggest, strongest animals, thus weakening the genetic stock. By contrast, natural deaths, however unpleasant, are the lot of animals who are generally weak, sick and past their prime. Thus, such deaths do not affect family and social units as drastically as hunting deaths. Wildlife experts disagree. Few zoologists would dare to make the generalizations subscribed to by many passionate anti-hunters. The inescapable fact is that, in many areas, development has already infringed so drastically upon wildlife habitat that human intervention is the only means of ensuring the survival of the species. Thomas W. Kimball, executive vice president of the National Wildlife Federation, states: “There is no realistic way for deer populations in Wisconsin or Wyoming to achieve a self-sustaining level without hunting unless wolves, coyotes and mountain lions are restored to their former abundance, and that is not likely to happen.” Mr. Knaster suggests relocating females of the species to areas that are underpopulated. Where are these underpopulated areas? Perhaps he fails to realize that many animals will not adapt to environment changes very readily. 1 don’t believe that bighorn sheep could thrive in Central Park. When an animal’s habitat is plowed under and paved over, where can it live? Mr. Knaster also states that the odds are stacked against an animal ever getting away. I don’t think he has ever gone deer hunting. Only a small percentage of hunters get a deer each season. Most hunters don’t even get a shot at a deer. Let me also add this, do cattle in a slaughter house have any odds at all in their favor? How many times has Mr. Knaster enjoyed a nice steak, slaughtered, just for him. I believe that hunting has its place in the conservation effort. The National Wildlife Federation slates: “To manage natural resources on the basis of emotion is not sound for the resource or for the people.” I also am not condemning anti-hunters for their opinions. I feel that the right to hunt is a personal question. Each person must make his own decision whether it is right to hunt or not. By the same token, I also believe that, each person should respect the other’s right to make that decision. Neither the hunter or the anti-hunter has any business trying to ram his views down the other’s throat. I also believe that both sportsmen and preservationists must work together towards a common effort and conservation. As Thomas Kimball says, “We simply can’t afford to feud with each other when we’ve all got so many bigger enemies to fight.” Martin Celnick Wednesday, 7 April 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �picayune arkedelphia EUTAW profane situation saturation i ostentatious osculations strange countries of the mind rip-torn-tunes obliterates pain & grief around you can make you sick Give that man an enema A sense qf finesse naturally given to sohg ( ‘O when the saints’ Barcaloungers studded and pimped sasso grasso Bruno takes good care of your sequenced radomization courtesy City Council I just want something warm to stick inside of me Throw off your shirt sister get light baby Club Hotsy Totsy 1 like boys Where’s Lavoisier?

Bert Black Master College of Hack Studies History revised To the Editor: This is written not to condemn but to forgive (7 x 70 time*) a slight, but historically important, mistake made by the “Noted Historian” Danny Zwickcr. To make it brief, his Marco “Ketter” Polo came about 200 years early. The real Marco Polo ventured to China and arrived in the court of Kublai “Ketter” Kahn in 1275 A.D. where he was given great education, wealth, and high government positions. 1066 A.D. (the date Danny used for Marco’s expedition) was actually the date of The Norman Invasion of England, otherwise called the Battle of Hastings. William I, the Conqueror of Normandy, invaded England to do battle with his cousin King Harold Godwin when a dispute arose over who should have the English, throne. Needless to say, Harold was killed and William gained the throne; so ends our history lesson for the day. David T. Caputo Not the issue To the Editor. In Monday’s (5th April) The Spectrum Tom Nicotera responded with not unfamiliar xenophobia characteristic of the majority in times of economic depression; attack the reticent, hard-working, in non-political minority committed to their work this case foreign students devoted to their education. Just how does Tom Nicotera think the faculty and administration appoint GA’s and TA’s on the basis of skin colour, black hair, sex appeal, nationality or dietary habits? It is the policy of this University to appoint GA’s and TA’s on the basis of academic ability. There is more to academic ability than just language facility. If foreigners do not speak fluent English it is understandable but what about failing standards in writing and reading skills of American students whose mother tongue is English? This is unforgivable. Moreover, how many foreign GA’s and TA’s does Mr. Nicotera know who are wholeheartedly behind GSEU? Admittedly, everyone wants more money if they can get it but I personally know quite a few foreign GA’s who actually save on their present salary and none- of these are actually starving or living in gutters. This is because (hey have the good sense of cutting their cost according to the cloth available. They recognize that you cannot make a silk purse out of sow’s ears. Before advocating that this University rearrange its priorities, perhaps it is equally pertinent for my American colleagues to set their priorities straight get back to their education and stop looking for scapegoats. Nothing is gained by sowing seeds of hatred and intolerance. This State’s or this University’s problems are not going to disappear by merely withdrawing assistantships from graduate students from overseas. Some departments will suffer academically if these students went elsewhere.. — - — Vijaykumar Patel according to the whims of those in power; first we were against the Russians, and now Chase-Manhattan Bank has opened up offices in Moscow, and Warsaw, and the message we get is changed, accordingly. The style and manners of a “bourgeois consciousness” 1 To the Editor: Many of my friends arc planning to strikesoon, and yet many other undergraduate students I have spoken to will be unable to participate in the coming strike because of the pressure of classes, grades, domineering teachers, and so on. What 1 am afraid of is a rerun of the events in the Sprifig of 1970 a split among the undergraduate student body over whether to strike classes or not. At that time a predominantly middle class group of students led by SDS, who opposed the war in Vietnam, ROTC, Defense Contracts on Campus, etc., staged a lengthy and dramatic strike (during which some 45 of us faculty were arrested), and found themselves clashing with another group of students, those who, not necessarily opposed to the aims of the strike, but from working class backgrounds, usually from Buffalo, and whose needs for a university education were more important to them; in any case, they were unable or unwilling to quit their Classes, and so, considerable violence took place at the entrance to campus buildings. This provided exactly the excuse which the campus administration needed to do what they wanted all along; occupy the campus with 300-500 armed Riot Squad police from downtown. I do not want to sec that happen again. It comes down to thinking more radically about what it means to “strike.” (I am speaking about an undergraduate student strike; not one by working teachers here who are graduate students.) If we were all working here making automobiles which could be then sold by the “company” for profit, then obviously when we withhold ohr collective labor, we put pressure on the profit oriented company to do what we want:' a strike, worts. Unfortunately, we do not make cars; and I am not one who believes that students taking notes in classes, with pen and notebook, are thereby ““working.” ' What is produced here, besides the providing of technical skills and a kind of sorting out of students according to interest and “ability,” is a kind of mentality or “consciousness,” a way of thinking and being in the i social world, but especially a consciousness that fits us into a businessman’s world, a world dominated by the profit motive, as far as I can figure it out. That’s why it is not at all surprising to me that President Kcttcr and all the previous University Presidents are members of the Board of Marine Midland Bank, and similar corporate bodies. In France right now, there is a large student strike against the new policy of “making the students more inviting faihillaf?) by employable” (sound corporation leaders into the academic planning committees of the French universities to reshape the curriculum accordingly. That’s pretty “up front,” compared to our academic planning bodies who have absorbed the corporate aims as their aims; thus our Academic Planning Committee speaks of “employability” and “throughput” and similar corporation jargohese. Their goal is to shape our thinking and being so that we fit into a world shaped and still run by businessmen. I think they’ve been pretty up front with us about that. There have been no secrets, really, about this. To those who wish to strike, here at U.B-, I say by all means let’s strike, but let’s strike at the heart of production, the production of a businessman’s which call “bourgeois consciousness, I consciousness.” This is a consciousness where we will all see each other in terms of “who’s going to win it”; or “can 1 beat him out,” and so on; it starts with th«f first report card, and our parents exclaiming, “All S’s, how* nice; let me give you a kiss!” Part of this “bourgeois consciousness” is to get people to feel alone and to see ourselves as individuals in the social world, and yet all the evidence of our senses and intelligence tells us that we are more and more interdependent on each other, economically and culturally, and, yes, in spirit. We are taught to regard each other according to status which is perceived as wealth; or why else, may I ask, does President Ketter get the $46,000 plus benefits? In other words, people as well as objects have a cash value. We are shaped to be afraid in the world, afraid of each other, “The Blacks,” “the Reds,” one thing or another, but to depend upon the powers that be to protect us from these “enemies,” which seem to vary — . are politeness and gentility; the message is: don’t rock the boat keep things to yourself, even to the point of not telling your lover what is going on in yOur heart. Just cry alone at night. Everything is done to convince you that there is really nothing you can do to change anything in society, that such changes as there are have come from “above,” by “those who know.” The mood appropriate to a “bourgeois consciousness” is despair, loneliness, hopelessness, fear and insecurity. Needless to say, I find such “bourgeois consciousness” repugnant to my nature, and imagine that in their hearts, eveyrone else feels the same way: we were meant to live better than that. So, let us break the mood of despair and hopelessness and loneliness; by all means let us strike and stop the production of “bourgeois consciousness,” and each of us will, I am sure, find their own methods to struggle to stop that “production”: 1. Some may wish to avoid their classes. 2. Others may-wish to reiiiain in their classes and challenge the teachers and their classmates to compare their own experiences with what is being v taught and the values “coming down”; they may collectively draft critiques of the subject and circulate them, and demand a hand in the shaping of their consciousness. 3. Others, seeing that employees at this university are intimidated and threatened by the administration from organizing themselves into a union to protect their rights, and knowing from their own family’s experiences how vital a union is, may wish to support what attempts employees are making to unionize. 4. Some may wish to join the GSEU strike. 5. Some, sitting in class, feeling uncomfortably sad, may wish to cry. 6. Others, sitting in buses, alienated by the separateness of the passengers, may start up conversations with their seat-mates. 7. Students in dorms, bored and frustrated by the bullshit quality of their contact with others in the dormS may decide to start up “support groups” among their corridor friends. 8. Some may feel intimidated about criticizing their teachers, may write out such criticisms on notes and pass them to their neighbors in classes. 9. Some, bored.by the “assigned readings,” may stray, and read what they want. 10. Others, startled by learning about Ketter’s connections with the Financial World, may wish -to investigate the business connections of all those making educational policy for SUNY; trustees, chancellors, and- the like. They may wish to publish and circulate them on this campus, and they may expect to change people’s minds about the way things are run. 11. People may want to write their own leaflets and hand them out. 12. Some may disagree with the way the Coalition fo Fight the Cut-Backs works, and may want to form their own Coalition. 13. Some may talk to their parents, members of local unions, about the cut-backs and how the University soon will be inaccessible to the sons and daughters of working people from Buffalo, and may encourage their parents to bring this issue up at the next meeting of that local trade union and offer a resolution to oppose the cut-backs. I could go on and on, you get the idea. The thing is, people react in different ways according to where they are at in the system and what they think they can do, and that everything that is done to stop the production of “bourgeois consciousness” is all to the good, and the people who have their own way and pace themselves in different ways, and will “strike” at the heart of this production in a way that suits them, and none of us are so ennobled with the “truth” that we can say to someone else: You are - not striking! Charlet A. Haynie Coordinator, College F All the way To the Editor. Now that the student vote on the referendum has been tabulated add the decision to strike has been made, I would really like to know what good this will do in preventing budget cuts and tuition hikes. Boycotting classes for just one day is not going to help matters very much, probably not at all. If the students are really sincere on how they feel about the budget cuts and how it will affect our quality of education, they should do something a bit more drastic. For any significant outcome to result from all this, not a one-day strike should be implemented but at least a one-week strike should be put info effect. This would give state officials more to think and worry about than a one-day strike ever will. Personally, I am against a strike, but if we are going to do it, let’s do it right. All we are accomplishing by this one-day affair is giving the students a one-day vacation from school. Really now, how many students are actually going to picket and rally on Tuesday? If we are going to do something, let’s do it all the way, not half-ass.

As 1 sat in the theater in Harriman taking in The Alley Between our Two Houses, I experienced a broad range of emotions and thoughts. Although much of the content could be described as painful, 1 found myself exhilerated throughout and after the performance. There was something imaginative in each scene that drew me in, whether it was movement, use of music and silence, or portrayals of the characters. Terry Kiler’s review of Alley in The Spectrum concludes that it cannot stand as a play because it doesn’t make sense. I felt that the reviewer did not attempt to take the play for what it was. Alley is not a clearcut sotry to be readily understood. 1 saw it as an exciting example of what theater can be when plot is not primary. I came out of that play wanting my friends to experience it, and was very sorry that there would be no more performances. I think Jeff Brooks and Ray Munro and their cast are doing great stuff that I hope will be shared with people in other cities. And if it’s not a “play,” it doesn’t matter what you call it, Alley is art. Bill Fudeman 66EHM9S raw FlD6LCAsnao„. AW, All for naught To the Editor We would like to take the opportunity to condemn the decision to strike. It appears that the pseudo-radicals and makeshift Socialists have hoodwinked the students with their rhetoric. They claim that one of the purposes of the strike is to make the legislators aware of student dissent concerning the cutbacks. But let’s be realistic. Why would the legislators, Ketter or anyone else (besides students) be driven to action because the students took a day off from class. It is obvious from the legislators’ actions that they do not place a high priority on education. Strikes are generally used to set back the oppressor, but the students were the only ones to bear the effects of this strike. As far as the organizers of the strike are concerned, we think it is about time that these middle class “radicals” started doing a little thinking and realize that their fighting and “strength building” is self-destructive. Better education is not obtained by shutting down the educational institutions. Recently, the Coalition has voiced complaints against the banks which are hoarding money and the legislators who vote themselves tax breaks while at the same time increasing the cost of public education. I agree with their complaints. But why don’t the members of the Coalition direct their demonstrations at the banks and Albany instead of picketing the buildings in which my classes are held? Unfortunately, our efforts are belated, but it doesn’t really matter. The Coalition had their day, that day passed uneventful, and we will all pay the extra hundred dollars next year. - Daniel Flagherty Maher William Henry Jones II UNIVERSITY BOOKSTOREHall Norton FRIDAY, APRIL 9th is the LASTDRY order your Don’t Forget!

The Spectrum . to Minority Student Affairs, Student Activities and The Theater Department Wednesday, 7 April 1976 Two wins clinched in pre-season play The Baseball Bulls opened their northern swing last weekend with two wins that showed that they can hit, pitch, and play defense equally well. They beat St. Mary’s 11—5 and 1—0. In the first game, the Bulls got off to somewhat of a slow start, trailing 1-0 and 2-1 in the early innings. But senior right hander Mike Dean blanked St. Mary’s for three innings in a row while the Bulls ripped St. Mary pitching. Homers by Mike Dixon and John Kidd did most of the damage for Buffalo. Dean yielded two more runs in the last of the seventh, but the game was out of reach by then Bulls’ bats quiet The second game was a complete turnabout from the first. The Bulls’ bats, so potent in the first game, were silenced by Dave Wingate of St. Mary’s. The Bulls managed only five hits in the game, and flawless defense by St. Mary’s cut the Bulls’ attack down even further. Buffalo managed the only run in the top of the fifth when catcher Dixon doubled home Jim Mary. But one run was enough. Senior hurler John Buszka was as effective for Buffalo as was Wingate for St. Mary’s. The Bulls’ defense erred only once, and Buszka allowed just one hit and no runs. Buszka, who was one for three in the first game as designated hitter, was in total control of his pitches, walking only three batters. Bull coach Bill Monkarsh had nothing but praise for his pitcher. “He didn’t walk anybody. That’s been a problem with our pitching staff. They lose their concentration, walk a couple of hitters, and then a base hit scores a run. But John was able to keep his control.” No mistakes Monkarsh also ahd an explanation for the 10 run difference in the two games. “Both teams played superbaseball in the second game. It was a good defensive game. We did hit the ball hard, but they made some great plays, a catch against the left field fence, a diving grab at first.” The wins for the Bulls bring their overall record up to 6-7, and they will be on the road again this weekend for six critical games. The Bulls will play a doubleheader at Seton Hall, St. John’s and Fiarfield, and a successful trip will make a lot of college baseball people aware of Buffalo. Last season, the Bulls dropped two games to Fairfield and one to St. John’s The Bulls’ home season opens on April 22, when Buffalo takes on Big Four rival Canisius in a doubleheader at Peelle Field. Then that Saturday, the Mountaineers of West Virginia invade Buffalo for their annual meeting. �Tight divisional races forecast in upcoming baseball season - be the regular centerfielder even though Martin doesn’t like him.

Phone If the Yankees are to win their first pennant in 12 years, they’ll have to do it in spite of their management. They had star pitcher Andy Messersmith in their back pockets before they showed him one contract, tried to get him to sign another, and the star pitcher decided he’d rather play for honest people. Earlier in the year they put in a strong entry for the “Ridiculous Trade of the Year” award by dealing Bobby Bonds to the California Angels for a song and a dance. The song is 16 game winner Ed Figueroa and the dance is Mickey Rivers who waltzed his way to 70 stolen bases last year to lead the league.

The Royals offense is solid, led by the .300 plus hitting of George Brett and the power of John Mayberry. Steve Busby and Dennis Leonard top the pitching corps which finished fourth in the league in ERA last year. The infield defense is solid and the Royals only glaring weakness is catching. The Angels may be the most improved team in the American League. They set a major league record in steals last year and then in the off season, stole one more with the acquisition of Bobby Bonds.

The Red Birds are banking on two rookies at the corners Hector Cruz and Keith Hernandez and a relatively young pitching staff that features A1 Hrabosky in the bullpen. As usual, the New York Mets face no pitching problems, but their hitting is a little skimpy with a rotation of Tom Seaver, Jon Matlack, Jerry Koosman and the newly acquired Mickey Lolich, the Mets possess one of the best staffs in the majors, but it takes runs to win games. The mets have some solid players but must find, someone to fill the gap left by Rusty Staub’s departure. Fighting it out for the cellar position will be the Chicago Cubs and the Montreal Expos. The Expos right now are jockeying for the position but when you’re as bad as these two teams it doesn’t make any difference who is worse.

Gallo’s appearance is. sponsored by the Student Association Speaker’s Bureau. — Western Division The World Champion Cincinnati Reds should dominate the NL West again, especially since almost every starter is virtually an All-Star. Come World Series time in ’76, Johnny Bench, Joe Morgan, Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Davey Concepcion, and company should be in the limelight once again. The Reds’ pitching staff is a little thin, but they’ll be starting Gary Nolan, Jack Billingham. Don Gullet, Pat Darcy and Fred Norman again. The bullpen will probably see a lot of action again this season. With the departure of Andy Messersmith, the Los Angeles Dodgers are standing on shaky ground. The problem they face is that they have only one healthy solid pitcher, Don Sutton. By the acquiring Dusty Baker, solid have rounded out a Dodgers starting lineup, but the trade stripped them of their bench strength. They own some frontline players, but second place is as far as they’ll go. Hot on the Dodgers’ heels are their long standing rivals, the San Francisco Giants.

Nuclear reactors use water as a loss to 730 gallons per day and cooling medium, recycling it in a necessitating a reactor shut-down. closed system. As the water The sealing operation succeeded circulates through the elaborate piping complex (Thomas calles it * a piping nightmare), it picks up various radioactive by-products. Water in the -research reactor as a University this contains substantial amount of 16N (a radioactive isotope of.nitrogen) — to 30 20 approximately roentgens. With a half life of under eight seconds, most 16N disintegrates during its passage through a delay device called a hold-up tank. Negligable radioactivity Some of the escaped water seeped up into the floor of the reactor Core. But by the time it had passed through the six feet of protective concrete, the water’s ratioactivity was lowered to less than 10 milliroentgens, “a level of negligable amount,” indicated Thomas. Although he considers the possibility of another leak highly unlikely, Thomas could not rule it Most nuclear out altogether. reactors have a projected life span of 30 to 40 years. But like any other machinery, this can be indefinitely extended through replacement of worn or defective parts. “Efficient maintenance and careful monitoring can eliminate malfunctions,” he said. Reactor operators discovered last September that 250 gallons of water per day were being lost from the cooling system. The normal operative loss ranges from 40 to 50 gallons per day. Determining the hole’s precise location and finally sealing it were difficult operations. The costs of in recuding the water loss to an acceptable 40 gallons per day, all of which is attributable to evaporation. Two stories under water was escaping The completely contained within the two stories facility, reactor underground, and therefore never constituted a serious hazard. Thomas maintained. Nevertheless, he would like to see a revamping of the pipe system, allowing repair operations to proceed with greater responded Thomas ease. affirmatevely when asked if it was •possible for more holes to form due to galvanized corrosion, but that television quickly added inspection of the pipe failed to reveal any additional weaknesses or impurities. As the possible hazards of nuclear power continue to be aired, the public is becoming increasingly wary of the this energy alternative source. Mounting opposition originating from environmental groups, the New York Public Interest' Research Group (NYPIRG) and its ally-mentor Ralph Nader, and people residing near planned or already constructed nuclear power plants is rapidly forcing the to review “the government national committment ,1° the unlimited development of nuclear power." Inadequate safety precautions, thermal pollution, and the shadow of terrorism/sabotage are limiting that must be weighed the beneficial aspects of power. nuclear controlled Recently, a malfunction in a nuclear reactor in Detroit, came within a hair’s breadth of causing a reactor core meltdown. A meltdown would have created a deadly ratioactive fpg, possibly killing millions in the Detroit vicinity. Incidents such as these have alerted the public to the dangers of “peaceful applications” factors against “fast breeder” theoretically reactors produce which more they than fuel plutonium consume in uranium has been well numerous by demonstrated bjpeder failures. large scale Besides, the of handling and availability (the plutonium • most toxic chemical substance known to man) would increase by leaps and bounds the likelihood of a catastrophic accident occuring. imaginative hijacker, One several years ago, threatened to crash his captive plane into a nuclear plant if his demands weren’t met.

Students vote to strike tomorrow; Coalition disputes referendum Undergraduates have voted by a three to one margin to strike tmorrow, April 6, only. The one day strike won over an indefinite walk-out by a scant 22 votes. But the tabulation of this second question in the three day referendum is being disputed. Leaders of the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks have charged that the Student Association’s (SA) wording of the question on the duration of the strike, and its tabulation, gave those students who voted against the strike the deciding voice in the question on the strike’s duration. Question 2 on the referendum asked “If a strike passes by referendum should it be (1) for one day or (2) an on-going strike whose terminaton date will be set by the Student Association.” Because of the dispute over the duration question, the SA Senate will decide today how the be will referendum results implemented. President Steve Schwartz said Friday night. A total of 3100 students favored a strike out of 4343 votes cast. Of the 3100, 1030 voted fof a one day strike, 1465 voted for a prolonged action to be terminated by SA decision, and 121 wanted the striking students to determine of the length the strike. Fifty-seven students who voted to strike did not vote on the second part of the referendum. Of the 1243 students who were against a strike, 787 voted tor a one day action, while 98 wanted a prolonged action, and one student felt that students should make the decision. 288 students who voted to remain in class Tuesday did not vote on the duration of the strike. The Coalition has questioned of allowing the legitimacy students who voted against the stike to decide its duration. This issue will be an important topic of discussion at the Coalition-sponsored mass rally tomorrow in the fountain area behind Norton Hall, in the Fillmore Room if it rains. Picketlines will be set up in front of various buildings on , the Main Street campus during the day. The Coalition urged all students to participate in the picketing. In a related development, United University Professionals (UUP), chapter head Charles Fall, matter of the said the undergraduate strike will be UUP before the brought Executive Board this morning. “However.” he added, “we would have to leave the decision to cancel classes up to the individual Fall has previously given his personal support to the student strike. The Executive Committee of the Graduate Student Association (GSA) has expressed its support for the SA resolution which led to the referendum, but has not yet made a decision regarding the strike. teachers.” �SA forum Legislators answer questions on cutbacks by Charles Greenberg Contributing Editor A crowd of about 400 packed Haas Lounge Friday at noon to question local state legislators on cuts in the SUNY budget, in a Student Association (SA) sponsored forum, which capped a week of educational events augmenting the strike referendum. State Senator Dale Volker (R., Depew), and Assemblyman William Hoyt (D., Buffalo) and James Fremming (D., Amherst) attended. The elimination of the Foreign Student Office, prompted one questioner to say she and the other 1700 foreign students here were able to feel like guests in a host country because of the program.

Some of these houses have been rented the same day that landlords advertise them. Lease-reading, a service that Legal Aid has always provided, has expanded this year due to the Housing Office’s success. A Life Workshop dealing with the housing market how to l6ok for housing, what rents to expect to pay, and how to get the most out of your landlord, was a new Clinic service this year. Plans are being made for a workshop in the dorms sometime this month due to the first one’s enthusiastic reception, according to Legal Aid. Clinic spokespersons report that area landlords have been, with a few exceptions, cooperative towards Legal Aid’s office. The clinic received a letter from one landlord saying that the housing office was “the first positive step in landlord-student ■ - - — ■ relationships.” According to Richman, the State University (SUNY) Chancellor’s office has inquired about the service. •“The administration here, although taking credit for having the service on campus, has in fact not given Legal Aid any assistance.

Richman is writing to SUNY Chancellor Ernest- Boyer concerning the administration’s lack of cooperation. FUTURE IN DANGER State budget Thr problem in New York State today is how to cut state operations, according to Volker. “The state budget and inflation are both increasing rapidly; we have to cut people who are specifically not needed.” When asked if the state had defaulted on moral obligation notes, Fremming responded that the state came up with the necessary funds to stave off default. If the state had defaulted, many of its current projects funded with borrowed money would not be completed to borrow money, he because the state would not -have been noted. Hoyt felt a strike by students was a poor idea. “As a tactic of strategy you will lose; this is not the best way.” He suggested making a list of the most important programs, submitting it to legislators by the middle of April. This would enable legislators to act on them before the Supplemental Budget is passed in early June. Fremming agreed with Hoyt, saying that a strike would damage the University’s image in the community. The Spectrum is published Monday.

Frances Moore Lappe in her book Diet for a Small Planet disclosed that cattle eat, on the average, 16 pounds of grain for every pound of meal that they produce. This is extremely inefficient conversion ot protein and results in a shortage of food in many underdeveloped countries, according to the book. World hunger could be greatly" alleviated if people, rather than livestock, ate the grain, said Lappe. Moral and practical reasons aside, the health benefits of vegetarianism are just starting to become recognized. Vegetarians levels than have lower cholesterol meat-eaters, and show lower instances of diet-related cancers such as colon cancer, Kellner said. A vegetarian meal is not just a collection of vegetables, Kellner explained. “Variety is one of the main points we want to come across at the dinner," he said. The dinner , Poverty; Personal and Political Responses.” scheduled for 5:30 p.m. Thursday features an impressive menu: asparagus soup, cucumbers with sour cream, ratatouille, brown rice pilaf, fruit ambrosia, and more.

GSEUstrike vote fails by 11; ‘Reporter’article cited by Steve Milligram Contributing editor The G rac i ua te Student Employees Union (GSEU) failed to receive enough affirmative voles from its membership to declare a strike this week in its referendum Friday. 325 affirmative votes were necessary to declare the walkout, but the final tally was only 30X to 206. Union spokespersons blamed administration “union-busting" for the defeat, citing as an example an article on the front page of the Reporter allegedly containing “misleading information" about GSEU from administration sources. Also criticized was a meeting of department heads with University President Robert Ketter, who allegedly told the officials that if their Teaching Assistants (TA) and Graduate Assistants (GA) strike, full-time faculty would have to make up the classes, even if it would violate their contracts. Union officials also criticized a letter sent to all TAs and GAs promising that tuition waivers would probably be restored in New York Stale's Supplemental Budget, even though Governor Hugh Carey has already said he would veto it, according to one GSEU spokesperson. Building Union members further blamed the union's “lack of recognition" for the defeat. GSBU is still in the process of “building." they said. “Since we have not gained official recognition, we are unable to get any support or affiliation with any other unions, we have no office, and we don't even have a phone where people can reach us." a union official complained. He added they feel that they have little time to fight the recent cuts in tuition waivers and increase in tuition. “We arc currently placed in a defensive position by university and slate officials and must organize quickly." he concluded. Generalizing GSEU’s conflict • as a ‘‘struggle against powerlessness," one GSEU official believes that TAs and GAs are isolated intentionally and put into needless competition against each other and senior faculty. “We need an organization (hat will last," she insisted. “If the TAs and GAs are non-essential, if we are non-workers as the administration claims, then there would have been no need on their part to use the union-busting tactics that have been employed this week." asserted another official. When asked if their pay would be withheld if they struck, she replied that the administration would then be treating the TAs and GAs as employees because they could be paid (or not paid) for performing a function. She added that the administration currently claims that they receive funds because, “we are such nice, good human beings, and the only reason that we teach classes is that it is a programs GSEU requirement of our currently seeking recognition from the State Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). and claims to have met is “fierce" opposition from slate and University officials. However, a hearing is believed imminent. Demands Union leaders arc organizing around six basic demands: a minimum salary of S4.000 and maintenance of tuition waivers, restoration of 165 TA and GA budget lines, liability and accident msurance for all TAs and GAs, assurance of funding through degrees, closer adherence to Affirmative Action guidelines in hiring, and that the University and slate withdraw their claim before PERB and facilitate the election for union bargaining status. Union leadership claims they are lepresenlative for the approximately 655 state-funded GAs and TAs at this University. Excluded from G S E U representation are those graduate students who are funded nationally, teccive grants, or have Woodburne or University fellowships. “Nationally funded grad students are under a different employer, and those who receive fellowships are not required to work.” explained a union spokesperson. Although disappointed. GStU officials feel the vote was an indication of complete support for the union because so many were willing to walk off their jobs in support. “This is not a set-back it shows that we have backing from TAs and GAs. and we will have a strike, if it is still needed, possibly in the fall." pledged one. “We want a union that will outlast the individuals who are here now,” another declared. One official recounted her vision of returning to this university after fifteen years, asking a student the location of the GSEU office, and being replied that its “over there.” The existence of ai organization of GAs and TAs will its change ideas about membership in relation to their status as both students and employees of New York State, organizers feel. “We can change the nature of this institution and the nature of education in SUNY Buffalo." one official claimed. Future GSEU plans include expanding membership in all departments, building an organization with stewards and alternates, obtaining space for an office and headquarters, and solidifying GSEU's image as a labor union. Most important, according to union organizers, will be fighting “the ideology that we are powerless, stupid and childish, and not let the administration put us in unnecessary competition with each other."

(CPS) He’s paralyzed from the waist down, but the other candidates are paralyzed from the waist up.” This is the type of information George C. Wallace gives listeners when campaigning for his father, George C. Jr. A law student at Auburn University in Montgomery, the thin, long-haired, former country singer is stumping mightily for daddy this election year, addressing Wallace fundraisers all over the country “almost every weekend,” - according to a spokeswoman in Wallace campaign headquarters. “We’re very enthused about our chances,” Wallace Jr. declares. “We have definite solid core support across the country and there are no plans for withdrawal.” Fellow Alabamian law student Joe Watley disagrees. Watley and several University of Alabama friends have put together a investigative study of the Wallace years in Alabama, and a couple of huge labor unions have reprinted the booklet and distributed it in several early primary states. With Wallace fairing poorly in these contests, Watley and company are taking damming, some of the credit. Thin fray “1 think it’s having an impact,” Watley claims. “For the first time, people are beginning to question George Wallace on his record in Alabama. For Wallace is defensive.” first time, on the the being put Young Wallace and Watley, both students deeply immersed in this year’s burgeoning electoral shennanigans, are noteworthy simply because there aren’t many other students or young people who have seen fit to enter the political fray in 1976. In fact, reports from around the country indicate that like many adults, many students have decided to sit this one out. Jimmy Carter, victoriously through primary states and sweeping the early frequently mentioned as the chief contender the Democratic Party has been unable to muster much student response even in New York, where in 1972 George McGovern had over 40,000 student volunteers pounding the pavement, answering phones and passing out political literature. for Pulling teeth “It seems an impossible dream point to get students involved,” Jerry Clarpelli, a Carter student coordinator in Upstate at this New York, told The New York Times recently. “People say even their friends don’t want to get involved.” Howard Leibowitz, another Carter volunteer, echoed Ciarpelli’s feelings. “It’s like pulling teeth to get volunteers, but we’re getting our share. Students are just not very active,” Leibowitz explains. Just before the New York on April 6, . .Charter’s statewide student strength was estimated at 400, only as many McGovern studenfs as campaigned in Brooklyn alone in 1972. Morris Udall, the only candidate with a “liberal” label still alive in the primaries, had put together a. work force which numbered 1,500 students. The story is the same in other primary states. Each candidate has been able to tear a certain number of students away from their studies to jump on his bandwagon, but in every case, the numbers are much lower than in 1972 or 1968. Why? Many students say a lack of an issue in this year’s election no Nixon or Vietnam war to has forced many rebel against of them to opt for anything other than politics this spring. Harvard primary • - — senior Joseph Fay, a student coordinator during the short-lived campaign of R. Sargent Shriver, attributed the low number of students applying for leaves at the can’t say I know' what should be done.” In the west, University of Utah senior Poppy Shell, coordinator of a program designed to encourage students to vote, thinks young people are “more concerned for themselves personally than causes this year.” Although Sholl says her program, “Participation ’76,” is going “rather well,” she finds little activity on campus in the way of students getting involved ‘ in the presidential campaign. “They’re more interested in getting into law school,” the political science says. Mahy political pundits feel that ,the conscious act of refusing to vote, not to be confused with voter apathy, is catching on with adult votefs this year, and possibly with students as well. At a recent mass rally involving some 10,000 students protesting budget cuts ih Albany,' New York; one budding the student politician took and urged the students to get out and register to vote. He was promptly hooted off the platform. “No one is stupid enough anymore to think they’ll have any effect, whereas in 1972 they thought they would,” sayd student Richard Agriss somewhat bitterly. Several polls have predicted that over half of the 150 Americans eligible to vote will stay home this year, leading some experts to talk of a new “cynical majority,” and others to assess the non-voting situation as “frightening.” Last October, a speaker at Bowdoin College in Maine told —continued on page 14— normally highly politicized Cambridge campus to the lack of a Eugene McCarthy-type candidate who can stir young peoples’ feelings. “Without such a candidate or issue, it is difficult to recruit,” Fay says. Remote issue The economy, particularly the grim student job prospects, has apparently failed to stir anyones’ feelings either. “The economy is a remote issue,” offers Richard Bartmon, a 20-year old New York student who supports Fred Harris. “It affects my parents but not me.” Another New York student, William Hartung, says he became outraged about the war after he “found out what was happening,” but he doesn’t feel the same about the economy. “Economics isn’t as clear cut,” Hartung explains. “I Help make MoUdall President.

Fnfcnd to HOME REIOS Directed by IMWT MM ScraMpbqr t» DSHD (UYHEI TEOMCOUR* Shuttle buses will hopefully link areas on the Amherst Campus next year despite no increase in the bus service budget, according to Roger Frieday, Administrative Assistant for Campus Services. Frieday said there has been a problem with transportation around the new campus ever since it opened, a fact which comes as no surprise to the University community- Students sometimes jam a Main-Amherst bus leaving Ellicott only to get off at Governors, causing the bus to run only half-full the rest of the way to Main Street, he said. To eliminate this and similar problems, Freiday said his office will try to rearrange bus schedules so that a shuttle service can be set up and other runs can be express from Main Street to Ellicott. Originally, Campus Services was hoping for a small budget increase that would enable them to set up the shuttle, but this hope was dashed by the current budget crunch. While there will be no outright cut in the bus budget, it is being forced to “hold the line” despite a projected increase in ridership next year due to new buildings opening at Amherst, Frieday said. Frieday said he was hopeful that enough flexibility in scheduling will minimize the strain on bus service despite the increased usage. Strain in service Frieday acknowledged that 4here Was strain in bus service at certain times at present. He cited, as examples, the Main-Ridge Lea runs before and after the 9:50-11:10 and 2:20-3:40 classes on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Many classes are scheduled at these times and providing adequate bus service to such a large number of students is difficult, he said. However, said Frieday, the problem is usually helped somewhat by diverting Main-Amherst buses to Ridge Lea. Frieday said that perhaps the most severe handicap his office works with is a lack of information on bus service needs before each semester starts. They have no idea of where students will need to go and at what times, leading to great inefficiency in use of buses during the first several weeks of school, he said. After that time, Frieday says he has a fairly clear idea of when to order buses (buses are scheduled by the University but run by Bluebird). Bus shelters? Frieday expressed fears that campus buses will eventually have to abandon their present route between O’Brain/Baldy and Governor’s (Putnam Way), when a system of controlled access goes into operation. He explained that gates already in place will only let in those with an access card, eliminating most traffic. While buses could obtain the access cards, the driver would have to stop and leave the bus to activate the gate, Frieday said. Thus, it would probably result in better service if a new route were found. Frieday indicated that were the rerouting to become necessary, the University might have to put up bus shelters at junction points between the shuttle bus and the Main-Amherst bus. Frieday pointed out that a shelter was erected at Governor’s shortly after those dorms opened, and that a need for that shelter was seen by administrators at the time. There are some problems in putting up shelters, he said, chief among them cost. Bus shelters run anywhere from $1000 for a small, Metro bus-type shelter, to $3800 for a large, unbreakable acrylic shelter. In addition, foundations must be laid and the shelters must be erected, both of which also cost money. Frieday said that his office had never received a request from students for additional bus shelters at present bus stops, but that his office would consider such a request if made by students. However, he cautioned that putting up any new shelters would have to be approved elsewhere in the University. of the board Vote Rich Korman elected new Editor of ‘The Spectrum’ Richard Korman, Managing Editor of The Spec irum was elected Editor-in-Chief for 1976-77 by the editorial board of the paper last Thursday night, Korman, who is currently designing a special major in journalism, has been with The Spectrum for three years, working his way to the top from Staff Writer to Campus Editor to Managing Editor to Editor-in-Chief.

These ideas have been forsaken by many young journalists today. The unhappy result has been a return to advocacy journalism and ideology.” Still, Korman found dangers in going to the other extreme: a pretense of objectivity where there could be none, and the resultant dry, third person, classical news style. “For many events, traditional newswriting is entirely inappropriate. Unless the story’s content is exceptional, we usually end up with something sounding like, as Hunter Thompson has said, a British sportscaster speaking in whispers on the 13th green. Yawn.” ‘Academic’ plan Korman said he’ll try to solve the problem of covering the campus through a consistent, practical approach. For the most part, he said, campus news will be based on those things which can make a student’s life here exasperating, such as poor bus service or crowded libraries. But there will also be active political coverage, and hopefully, some revealing investigations. All this will be augmented by features on interesting topics on and off campus. Like his predecessor, Amy Dunkin, Korman is a native of Queens, New York. A graduate of Springfield Gardens High School, Korman reflected on earlier academic ventures: “1 almost failed my final semester of High School English. The teacher gave me a 65 just to scare me.

Monday-, 5 April 1976 �Mail voter registration legal The Court of Appeals ruled Thursday that a state law permitting voter registration by mail is constitutional, reversing a decision by Buffalo Supreme Court Justice Joseph S. Mattina. Mattina held on February 11 that mail registration was in violation of the State Constitution and that “personal registration” meant a trip to the Board of Elections. In the key sentence of the Appeals Court decision, Judge Jacob D. Fuchsberg said, “The words ‘personal application’ is a statute or constitutional provision need not be taken' to mean ‘by physical appearance’.” The decision of the state’s highest court was unanimous. The mail registration amendment to the State Election law was approved by the Legislature last year and went into effect December 1, 1975. Its constitutionality was challenged by the Erie County Republican organization in a suit filed in behalf of Donald J. Siwek of Buffalo who is active in^the Republican amendment / When Mattina ruled the unconstitutional, his decision was Party. appealed by the State Board of Elections and the State Attorney General’s office. The decision is seen Most of the unregistered voters in Buffalo and other large urban areas were expected to enroll as Democrats under a mail registration program, according to Friday’s Buffalo Evening News. About 6000 persons had registered by mail in Erie County when the law was challenged. The Court of Appeals decision is also a victory for the many out-of-town college students who reside in the Buffalo area for most of the year and cannot return to their home towns to register. The ruling drew support from Stephen May, chairman of the State Board of Elections. “This unanimous decision by the Court of Appeals can help arrest the shocking decrease in voter registration in New York State over the past three years,” he said. -3«k=3 Swc 1 mic=xk Thursday, April 8th Food Day is April 8th Information Fair 12 5 pm Haas Lounge Music.

After all, Japan is the home of SONY (no baloney). There are televisions in bath houses, tea rooms, offices, etc. When you pass through rural countryside you cannot fail to notice the contrast of the traditional Japanese farm houses topped off with antennas. The entire nation is tied together by the national television network (NHK) along with a variety of private local stations. The bulk of the programming consists of Soap Operas, and variety shows. But don’t be fooled, they are nothing like anything you have ever seen. Students of Japanese culture have noted the ability of the Japanese to successfully incorporate things foreign without ever losing their sense of “Japaneseness.” When things Chinese caught their fancy, they borrowed everything from Chinese writing, religions, and architecture, without becoming Chinese. Different format Today it is the west. For example, the amateur variety show is' quite popular but unlike our version, (remember Ted >1ack?) each performer must subject himself to a crttique of his performance. An expert is always present to tell this nervous neophyte that his or her voice squeaks, or they don’t open their mouth properly. For all their troubles they must bow ans give thanks for what often seems like the most insulting moment of their life. Since place is so important here, everyone who appears on TV or who is the subject of discussion, is asked his place of birth, date of birth, schooling, hobbies, and occupation. Sentimental things are always popular... It is not unusual for a music variety show to incorporate a member of the audience who has some tragic tale to tell. They are brought on stage in between acts, interviewed and given some gift (usually a toaster oven or stereo) as reward for enduring their hardship and bringing everyone, including the interviewer, to tears.

No Irv Weinstein’s Whether you are watching drama, documentary, comedy, or musical variety, the distinct Japanese passion for explanation always emerges. This particular style does not lend itself to the development of the TV star personality system we are used to. To be sure Japan has its stars, but they don’t demand stars the way we do. It is unthinkable for Americans to watch the national or local news without choosing their favorite (Irv Weinstein, Walter Cronkite) but in Japan, you never know who will be announcing the news in advance, and what’s more, it doesn’t matter. The regularly scheduled shows often have different hosts without any sense of disruption. There is no such thing as a Mary Tyler Moore Show, that demands one person’s presence. Instead the show has a constant format that is always familiar to the viewer no matter who is doing the performing. In fact the only time you notice the use of personalities is when a western movie star like Sophia Loren does a Yamaha motorcycle commercial. Perhaps TV. like water, is capable of taking the shape of the containing vessel (qr culture), but 1 can’t help but be amazed by the difference between the SONY color TV I watched in the states and its twin brother here.

Page seven �Guest Opinion EditPrial by the Graduate Students Employees Union Botched again The concept of a one-day student strike to protest budget cutbacks and fee hikes was from the outset a good one, but it has become clear that, thanks to poor planning and organization, the students of this University have done little more than vote themselves a day off from school. The controversy surrounding the duration of the strike is rooted in the ambiguous and poorly-worded referendum ballot. The ballot a one-day strike, an indefinite should have presented three choices strike, or no strike. Instead, students who opposed tbfi strike were still able to tip the balance toward having a one day strike. The Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks, which is challenging the legitimacy of the referendum, is blaming the Student Association for its ineptness in organizing the referendum (which to a large extent SA deserves). But the Coalition also had its own responsibility to make these criticisms last week, before the voting took place. In its zeal to pull off the strike, the Coalition apparently lost sight of the real issues behind such a protest move. There is nothing constructive about simply staying home from schddl or picketing. Whatever happened to promises of Workshops and teach-ins to at least inform the student body about that which they are supposedly protesting? Furthermore, why wasn't the strike day set for April 26 to coincide with the state-wide student strike? As it stands, in seeking to "save education" the Student Association and Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks have not thought out their strategy very well. Hopefully, this one day strike will mean something to the money men in Albany. On all get back to the business of learning. Wednesday, - Udall discrepancy.

In Erie County, former Georgia Governor Jimmy Carter, Senator Henry "Scoop" Jackson from Washington, and Arizona Congressman Morris Udall are the top contenders, although delegates on three uncommitted slates (in the 36th, 37th, and 38th districts) pledged themselves informally to Minnesota Senator Hubert Humphrey. The country is currently being governed by a president and vice president, both of whom were appointed during a period of public dishonor and do not represent the choice of the American people. The the presidential pardon Ford administration started off with a bang and since then, has -tabulated the largest of Richard M. Nixon military budget in history, watched unemployment rates rise, and generally made the White House about as boring a place as any to be Of the Democractic candidates who will appear on the primary ballot tomorrow, we feel Udall has the most integrity and the most - — .progressive ideas. In summary, Udall is an outspoken environmentalist who believes the federal government can safely prune the defense budget 10—15 percent, should take over the cost of welfare, health insurance and other social services, must continue regulating the natural gas monopology, should provide public employment jobs if necessary to reduce the jobless rate, and should leave the question of abortion to women and their physicians. Udall has neither a hawkish history on Vietnam, as does Jackson, or a two-faced approach to politicking, as does Carter. He is also not an aging has been, as is Humphrey. We appeal to all members of the University community, particularly voters registered in Erie County, to support Udall in the primary tomorrow. A win in New York could carry him to the nomination in July.

Normally the Reporter functions as a responsible newspaper, but in this ease it has not consulted with the other side and is blatant in its partisanship. In point of fact, the figures used by Andrew Holt arc obvious distortions of the true facts. We do not refer here to the figures pertaining to the TAA contract itself, but to the lax .figures, supposedly derived from Federal and State lax tables. A consultation of these tables would immediately reveal the inaccuracy of the figures quoted in the Reporter article.

These benefits include sick leave, accident and liability insurance, workman's compensation and unemployment insurance, and other benefits which protect them. As to Holt's claims that if unionized we can not legally receive tuition waivers, this is patently contradicted by the fact that CStA employees, who are not even students, can attend classes with a substantial reduction of such fees. In Oliver words. Holt's contentions arc entirely open to question. The consequences of this is that the figures that he uses in calculating the total salary for SUNYAB TAs are completely misleading, in that it contains the cost of tuition which, if it is received as a^waiver, would not be taxable.

Editoral policy it determined by the Editor-in-Chief, Page eight . The Spectrum . Monday, 5 April 1976 In response to the letter of March 3 I by Charles J. Cazeau, I would like to know where he has been hiding the past few weeks. First off, he states that it is “unfortunate” that tuition rates have gone up. I would regard the hike of stamps from $.10 to $.13 unfortunate, the hike of tuition $200.00 more a semester is far more than unfortunate. Secondly, Mr. Cazeau does not mention that the cutbacks include much more than a tuition raise, that is why they are called cutbacks. It includes the loss of jobs by many GA’s and TA’sand the cutting back and phasing out of many of our University programs, the education Dept, to name one. We have been told that the state is responsible for rising education costs, not the students. But who is paying? We are. I work part lime to pay for my education. With this hike in tuition and my inability to receive any hike in TAP, it will hurt. Third. I wonder if Mr. Cazeau is aware of the present unemployment rate. His figures concerning the amount of money an average college graduate earns, I believe are inaccurate. Does he know how many times we hear the same thing. "There are no jobs now.” We end up getting jobs high school graduates have now if there are some left. Not all subjects are as idealistic as the Geology 103. equipped with lab and future jobs as Mr. Cazeau would have us believe. The thousands of students on this campus are not fortunate enough to be in your department. Perhaps our making our own decisions about the subject we want or need will be taken from us next year! Wouldn’t that be unfortunate. Then we can pay the University for making our decisions. Rochelle Schulz h'nglixh hUlucaiiou 'ndcrgnuhwU �Thinking things out To the Editor. I am writing this letter to discuss what I feel is a hasty and poorly planned response to a delicate situation which deserves the utmost thought prior to the undertaking of such drastic action as is being planned by the student body. The affair of which I speak is the student strike which, whether or not approved, must not be followed to conclusion. As an undergraduate I too have no desire to watch my. tuition rise as the quality of my education decreases. 1 abhor the seeming ineptitude of the Ketter administration as fervently as any student. However. I fear by the mindless ravings of those around me that 1 am one of a minority who have any conception of how a strike endangers one’s future education as well as one’s life in general. By transferring here from a rather highly touted private university I sought to escape the turmoil that this institution is undergoing at present. Students and teachers from the school of which I am speaking had infinitely more justification in striking than we have here. I played an active role in their strike and have regretted it ever since. The final outcome of that fiasco, which under no uncertain terms will be the end result of the Coalition to Fight the Cutback’s scheme, was disastrous. Certain questions have remained unanswered and unresolved. Ambiguity in these areas is not only intolerable, but lends further creedence to my argument that those patronizing a student walk out are going about it in a half-assed manner. Are teachers willing to jeopardize their standing at present for the benefit of students fearing economicpressure and colleagues wary of pink slips? Whether or not the answer is yes, students were voting on Wednesday, March 31, without any knowledge of such support. All they knew was that the Coalition, itself dealing in the dark, was doing everything within its “power” to secure faculty encouragement. By encouraging students to vote without knowledge of the situation around them, the Coalition has. in essence, thrown their peers to the lions and in doing so, their credibility has suffered irreparable damage. Of secondary importance is the question of whether this institution will suffer from such massive action? How will Buffalo be seen by other institutions or by prospective students? What kind of facilities will be available when, all of a sudden, enrollment drops, and with it. demand for facilities which are at present seen as basic? In the end however, the questions which, when answered, will decide how students will act are spine of the following: How will we be affected in the end? Should the strike continue into May. and only a blind optimist would think it could not. will credit for the semester? Will students students be expected to make up for lost time? What guarantee is there that, in a lengthy strike, teachers will not withdraw support, thus leaving students with their pants down? It is easy to get caught up in such a spirited -atmosphere, but when the consequences are so devastating and the number of actions and reactions of both sides as intricate and varied as this situation portends, a tinge of conservatism is more appropriate than an ail out war led by radicals^ Steven Lane Professional behavior To the Editor. I wish to thank Bill Benzon (Guest Opinion , 3/31/76) for his support of the Graduate Student Employee’s Union (GSEU). Some of his views though, are every bit as regressive and misconceived ias the This particular story actually begins at the Mariposa Folk Festival last summer. The specific instance involves a woman named Rosalie Sorrels and a man named Bruce (U.JJlah) Philips. They were doing a by Steese workshop together, medium late on Sunday afternoon T think it was. And it was a thing of warmth and charm and high quality. At one point Philips was describing, the developments that occurred to him when he settled down for a while near Spokane. Washington on a farm. Seems all sorts of strange thoughts went flitting through his head, such as “How come I never talkfed?) to my father?” “Wh don’t I have any relationship with my son?” He went on to voice the proposition that being a bum, and/or being on the road, was in some sense attractive because it kept you too busy to think. That you were distracted enough just trying to survive, that you did not spend a great deal of time trying to analyze the quality of your life. Rosalie Sorrels then talked about the problems inherent in trying to run away from home with a collection of kids. “The first thing that happened was that the tire went flat . . . No, actually the kids came down with something and I had to wait three days before running away from home, and then the tire went flat.” It was as wonderful a demonstration of people talking about themselves, sharing the hard parts of being human, as I have ever seen. It was not just a workshop or a concert. At least for me it was something that was much more valuable. Phillips exited on my side of the area near the end and I pulled his sleeve long enough to tell him that such workshops did more for mental health . whatever the hell that is than most clinical psychologists. Sorrels I did not get a chance to speak to. So when I noted that she was coming in to do a Coffeehouse here, I decided to persue. And ran into some thing else of warmth and charm and quality. It is easy to forget how much work goes into most organizations and happenings.. Having tried to intercept Ms. Sorrels before the Coffeehouse and failed due to an errant airplane, or several, I wandered over to Norton Union early on, about 7 p.m. I guess. There were two women beginning the process of shifting tables around and a guy setting up lights, speakers, control boards, etc. (My apologies for my lack of names, I have never been good at separating people in that sense. Either the face triggers a set of memories or I am in a world of trouble, being as how names drift away very nearly as rapidly as they arrive.) Being at best semi-skilled labor I helped push tables around. There is a fascination to watching something come together. To watch the curtains, to darken the place, appear out of somewhere, and begin to go up as the tables begin to finally assume acceptable order. The amazing appearance of several hundred folk music magazines and anthologies, while the poor opening act learns tfie g/tump .. ... that he may be on a little longer than he was prepared for. Of significance is the appearance of the men what sell the booze in the back room moving tables is rather dusty and drying work. And somehow nobody gets hassled through all the reports from the airport moving Sorrels arrival time back further and further. The opening act performs admirably for substantially longer than he was originally asked to prepare, one of the women last seen moving tables suddenly appears to fill in for a few minutes of announcements, and a guest star is found to do a few numbers after the intermission pending arrival of the awaited one. Already a pleasant evening, albeit a few too many personal ghosts are in the audience for complete peace of mind. And finally Ms. Sorrels. Glance at her in passing and she could be a somewhat dowdy housewife, from Salt Lake who sings Morman songs, as she was once accused of being. Look carefully and there is a strength in her face that has a fee! of Indian about it, high cheekbones and long planes backed by long straightish dark hair. Listen to her and it becomes clear that this is a woman who has come to know and respect herself in a complete way. She has tried a bunch of things and some of them may hassle her... such as trying to be a mother and a singer who spends a lot of time on the road (when she mutters about her 13 year old and sips her sour mash, the unbidden thought comes that if her daughter takes after her, it must be a little explosive), but not much beats her. Not even winding up in Playgirl magazine because Ms. didn’t think she was enough of a feminist. But then how can you fault anybody who wears a Jerry Jeff Walker belt buckle, and decided to be a bar fly at the age of 15‘ Admittedly it is hard to see how the photographer who took her picture for the Playgirl article could ask her to look “innocent,” and settling for “sceptical” would seem to be much more sensible. But to whatever extent die has become experienced enough to be a bit dubious about the strange things that people do to her and each other, there remains an ease and warmth that are all too rare. Or perhaps these qualities are not so rare, but they are not usually available so openly and clearly. Perhaps she is black Irish, she talks and sings and drinks as the Irish are reputed to do, with warmth and grace and a great deal of character. There is a new album out. Always a Lady on Philo Records. Always a lady, because a lady never accidently does something which might harm her reputation, and she never did anything like that accidently. Let her rest there. You can’t squeeze a great deal of talent into a modicum of ink and newsprint, no matter how hard you try. But you missed something fine and valuable if you weren’t there, and if you were, you might remember that you owe at least a small debt to a bunch of folks who work a lot for the fun of it. Catch her the next time around, and watch the Coffeehouse for good things generally. Pax, take ... care administration’s. Mr. Benzon comments ”... few first and second-year graduate students are immediately capable of doing work worthy of publication in professional journals . *” Such an attitude, besides being patronizing and demeaning, is wrong. I am a first year graduate student. The research that I am conducting is not for practice. I expect that within the coming year I will have co-authored two papers on research in my field and that these papers will be published in'professional journals. In addition to my research, I am teaching eight hours per week (two lectures and two laboratories in organic chemistry). In return, I am paid $1800 per semester. If I had taken a job in my field (in which jobs are still plentiful), I would earn four to five times this amount. When I signed my TA contract, the instructions I received firmly stated, “You are a professional; you are to act as one at all times.” If the Chemistry Department was able to recognize that fact, I don’t understand why Mr. Benzon, Dr. Ketter and others . cannot. In the coming weeks, we (the GSKU) will demand our rights as the professionals we are. David Krevor Department of Chemical Engineering Don't knock a good job To the Editor. I would like this opportunity to comment on the letter appearing in the Wednesday, March 31 issue of The Spectrum concerning the competence of Howie Cohen, Mike Sadowsky and Hal Zwick. I have wojked with all three officers this year and 1 feel that they have gone above and beyond the call of duty in their jobs. Mike, elected as an IRC Main Body Rep., was appointed to the position of member-at-large of the IRC Main Body Executive Council after he put in much effort and time in the job. He and Howie, the former IRC Main Body Treasurer, joined many extra committees to help with the reconstruction of IRC. He proved that he could do his job of treasurer quite efficiently. Hal, this year’s bllicott Area Council President, (as vice president he was elected to the job following the resignation of the former president), has worked hard to run the Area Council; the largest of the three area councils. The “friendships” that you seem to oppose in Ellicott area council meetings have largely come out of these same few people attending all the meetings, and despite the “joking” this Ellicott Area Council has been the most successful ever. To the person who wrote the letter if you want things done and don’t feel that Howie, Hal or Mike can accomplish them, I suggest that you run for Main Body Representative from your Area Council next year. Then you, too, can have the opportunity to become involved and be a voting member of the IRC Main Body. Don’t knock the officers who have worked hard to keep IRC running this year. They have good ideas for next year and I have faith in them to carry them - out. AJMaiii Body Representative Monday, 5 April 1976 . The Spectrum Page nine . �What's the catch?

Industry pays a college graduate more money because it is getting someone with an increased capacity to work. When industry pays a higher wage, it is not doing so out of altruism, as Cazeau’s neglectfully narrow view would seem to imply. It is because a college graduate can provide a greater service than a non-college graduate. Industry pays more becasue the graduate is able to produce more. In addition, it should be pointed out that industry, while it pays money for improved machinery that increases production, pays nothing for the improved worker (i.e., the college graduate). All it pays for is the service the college graduate worker supplies. ->■ This inequitious situation ought to be rectified by having industry pay for the service they receive from the University, i.e., industry roust be made to pay for tuition and any other costs incurred in the development of increased labor capacity. .

Nurturing and obeying on the job market (CPS) As women cheer their new working sisters onNvard to more equal opportunities on the job market, the nagging fact that most women are still channelled into the lowest-paid, non-unionized, service jobs shows up in all the statistics. Between 1962 and 1974, millions of women entered the country’s work force. They were having fewer children or they wanted to wait a few years before getting married. The cost of living continued to rise but their husbands were in danger of being laid off construction and manufacturing jobs. Their income made it possible to afford those little conveniences that made their hours at housework shorter. Many worked for the sole support of themselves and their dependents. The biggest gain for the new working women was in clerical occupations. By 1974, women held four out of five jobs as cashiers, bank tellers, payroll clerks and stock and store clerks. Breaking into the job market for most meant a continuation of the same roles they thought they left at home (serving, nurturing and obeying) for minimum wages and little hope of advancement. A big part of the equal pay enigma (women earned 58 cents to every dollar earned by men) is simply that women are clustered in occupations which are traditionally poorly paid. A recent Manpower Report confirmed that classification of jobs by earnings was noticeably similar to classification of jobs by sex. Overall average earnings in March, 1974 for private industry were $4.06 an hour while the average rates in occupations dominated by women were more like $3 an hour. The report also pointed out that not only are women concentrated in lower paying industries but can also be found in relatively large numbers in non-union businesses. And what about all the new professional women who have been advertised and promoted as evidence of the new liberation in the work force? According to the 1974 report, women constituted 40 percent of all professional employees, up only four percent from 1962. Clearly, most women were still being shunted into jobs as secretaries, clerical workers, waitresses, teachers, nurses, phone operators, bookkeepers, and lab technicians. Acting as assistants to the people who made the decisions was they way women first entered the office world and it has stuck with them ever since. According to Marjorie Davies, quoted in the Village Voice, it was during the Civil War that women were first introduced into government offices as clerical workers. U.S. Treasurer Francis Elias Spinner put the new help to work trimming paper money but found they were so good at it that he found other jobs for them, too. By 1869, Spinner was boasting that “some of the females are doing more and better work for $900 per annum than many male clerks who were paid double that amount.” And so the tradition continued. The repercussions of so many women joining the ranks of workers even while there is another income in the family could be serious. Alexander Cockburn and James Ridgeway of the Village Voice believe that job liberation for women will complete a vicious circle in which women always lose. With inflation eating away at everyone’s wages and threatened government cutbacks of social programs and welfare, more women will be pounding the pavement looking for jobs. And with so many people looking for so few jobs, it is not unlikely that women will settle for the same low-paying, dead-end positions they have always taken. And find that their liberation is simply a variation of their former enslavement. More SSTs mean more skin cancer, studies show (CPS) A “new world of Hying begins” on May 24, when the first supersonic transport roars into Washington, according to ads taken by Air France in the Washington Post. New studies indicate that the flights may be the start of a new age in skin cancer as well as SST exhausts damage the earth’s ozone layer. Reseaichers at the National Center for — J Atmospheric Research have found evidence that exhausts from the SSTs, which include nitrogen oxide, will readily react with the stratospheric ozone layer, destroying the ozone molecules. data Meanwnile, researchers re-examining cancer have found ozone with skin depletion linking that their original estimates of increases in skin cancer caused by ozone erosion were too low. New studies conducted at the University of California at Berkeley show that with a 10 percent decrease in the ozone layer, the incidence of skin cancer could increase by 40 percent instead of the 20 percent originally plotted. The Berkeley panel based its conclusions on the now largely accepted theory that a reduction in the ozone layer would allow more harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun to hit the earth. In the new study, however, consideration of more variables has increased the estimate of skin cancer due to ozone depletion. The new statistical model accounts for the differing dosages of radiation people receive depending on their clothes, occupation and natural tendencies to sunburn. Considering these new variables moved the estimates of increased risk of cancer up much higher than first anticipated, according to researcher Elizabeth Scott. Current estimates of skin cancer from the National Cancer Institute average slightly over 300 cases per year for each 100,000 population. With a 10 percent drop in the ozone layer; about 150,000 more Americans could expect to contract skin cancer each year. Although representatives at the Center for Atmospheric Research say that the British and French test flights permitted to land in the United States will probably have little effect on the ozone layer, a larger fleet of SSTs could do significant damage. And that erosion of the ozone layer would be added to that already caused by fluorocarbon propellants in aerosol cans and nitrogen-based chemical fertilizers. Although the House passed a bill to ban the SSTs from landing in the United States, the Senate recently “chickened out,” according to a congressional aide, when it realized a Ford veto couldn’t be overridden. The ball is now in the U.S. Court of Appeals, where the Environmental Defense Fund has filed suit to halt the landings. A House aide claims that suit will have a good chance, since it provides “solid, documentary evidence” showing that data on fuel range and safety for the jets was covered up by the Department of Transportation when it approved trial landings in New York and Washington. Home in the frontier (CPS) “Hashish factory visitors welcome,” proclaims the enticing sign on one mud-brick building. “Best quality hashish for sale,” says another nearby notice. These hashish factories, turning out tons of hard, black bricks which sell for $10 per pound, are located in the wilds of Pakistan’s Northwest Frontier Province and, according to the Christian Science Monitor they are giving Pakistani officials a devil of a time. The problem is that the officials can’t do a thing about the factories, thanks to centuries-old customs that have put the area’s nomadic Pushtu tribe beyond the reach of civil law. “How much longer can we let this ridiculous situation go on?” asks one angry Pakistani bureaucrat. For several decades, it appears. Given the strength of the local tribal chiefs, no one expects the hash trade or the false-bottomed suitcase business in which the Pushtus also deal, to be cleaned up overnight. “The government is going to have to get to grips with the problem sooner or later, and the time will come when the rule of law is estended into tribal areas,” prominent one Pakistani predicted. “Unfortunately it could take another 40 or 50 — — , years Monday, 5 April 1976 .

The Wurlybirds overwhelmed; Buckshot 60-32 on Thursday night at Clark Hall to take the 1976 title. It didn’t take long for the Wurlybirds to establish their superiority, as they led right from the very start.

Goldberg had been the Wurlybirds’ leading scorer all season, and according to Bartlett, she was one of the best players in the league. (Joldberg tried out for the women’s varsity team, but didn’t make it. She and Boyle more than offset the strong performance turned in by Buckshot’s sister combination of C.B. and Janice Heinenman. The victory capped off an undefeated (8-0) season for the Wurlybirds. They breezed through the regular season, and then had no trouble in their first playoff game, an 81-60 win over Molsons. They received their first and only score in the semi-final game against OOfus. “We played terribly sloppy in the first half,” Bartlett said. They trailed 22-14 at the half, but in the second half the Wurlybirds asserted themselves like they did all season long and coasted to a 44-30 decision. �things are somewhat better at the State University at Buffalo, he is aware of the fact that the track and cross country teams are scheduled to be dropped from the varsity program next fall. “I spoke to Fritz (Harry Fritz, Athletic Director), and he told me that the track and c.c. teams are going to be cut. I’d be glad to coach if they don’t have a coach. I mean I don’t want to take anybody’s job, but if they don’t have one, then I’d do it. Gantz Professor joins the Boston Marathon for the fifth year by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer Attention: All students in Dr. Walter Gantz’s Television News Seminar Class 497, please be advised that on April 12 class will be cancelled because the professor will be running around. That’s right, running around. You see Dr. Gantz has entered the Boston Marathon for the fifth straight year, hoping to traverse . the 26-mile course as fast as he possibly can. It is a father strange hobby for the Communications professor, but Gantz has been running for eleven years, and says he loves it. “The Marathon is the longest running event there is. Some people run more, but I’m not that crazy,” said the mustachoied instructor. “Running the Marathon is the ultimate challenge to myself. “Running is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes when you hit a stride your body feels like a well oiled machine. That’s the best way I can describe it. That makes it all worthwhile,” said Gantz. By “it” Gantz means all the hard work and training that goes into preparing for a distance run. The long distance runner must put himself through grueling hours of work every day so that he will be able to go all out over the lengthy course. Gantz runs on the average of 12 miles per day, and sometimes goes for 20. “The last time I missed a day was in December 1973. I’ve run every day since then,” commented Cjbntz. Flat county The 29-year old professor has run into problems in training since coming to Buffalo this year. The Boston course is plotted over a series of hills, but the Erie County terrain is relatively flat, causing inumerable difficulties in pacing. “I need to run in hills, and Buffalo doesn’t have any. 1 consider curbs as my hills,” joked Gantz Gantz originally hails from Brooklyn, New York where he ran competitively for Brooklyn College. His experience at the metropolitan school left Ganti in with a sour taste in his mouth regarding an apparent lack of knowledge of the sport by school officials. “There was very little support for athletics at Brooklyn College. If my parents came to a meet it usually doubled the attendance,” said Gantz. “We ran little,'and the rewards were little. I remember at one dinner the university president said ‘One thing I like about athletics is that we don’t strive for 100 percent, we strive for 50 percent.’ I mean, here 1 am, busting my balls, and he wants to strive for .50 percent. Thai’s an example of the lack of understanding there is about the sport.” Although Gantz feels that Gantz will finish While such plans are nothing more than ideas right now, the Boston Marathon is a reality, and Gantz says that he intends to finish it. “Finishing is a questionable thing (due to possible injuries), but I think I’ll do it. 1 probably won’t do as well as last year because I haven’t had enough training time, 1 haven’t seen any hills, and the stamina and endurance are mental things, and I feel a little uncertain.” Last year Gantz finished the 26-mile course placing 163rd in a field of 2.000, averaging 5:52 seconds/mile for the entire course. He plans to maintain a slower "pace over the first half of the course, so that he can handle the hills on the last 14 miles. “1 suspect that I’ll be saying to myself, why am I doing this? I’ve met all the goals that I wanted. And at the end of the race I’ll be looking forward to next year.” But between now and next year there are 365 days, and Gantz will have to spend a good part of them back in the classroom, starting April 14th. r Sports Quiz This week Sports Quiz again is a baseball quiz with emphasis on the past. This means that freshmen will be at a distinct disadvantage in answering the week’s three questions. 1. Both the man and the dog in the above picture are now visiting one of baseball’s spring training camps where the man is trying to make a comeback after a successful but rocky career in the sixties and early seventies. Can you identify this bad boy in the big leagues? For extr; credit, name his dog. 2. Not including expansion clubs, what professional baseball team has gone without a pennant for the longest time? How many years has ii been since they last won? 3. Most people know that ex-Dodger Sandy Koufax was Jewish. But did he or did he not pitch on Yom Kippur, the holiest day of the Jewish year? Answers 1. The man is ex-Yankee, ex-Cub, and ex-who knows what else, Joe Pepitone who is attempting to make a comeback with the San Diego Padres. The dog’s name is Sally. 2. The Chicago Cubs have not won the pennant since 1945, making it 31 years since their last trip to the top. 3. Sandy Koufax never did pitch on Yom Kippur. Don Drysdale started instead.

Page thirteen �Uruguay accused of torture tactics by Pat Quinlivan City Editor Amnesty International (AI), an independent and non-partisan group concerned with the protection of civil liberties, has discovered that the military-dominated government of Uruguay has been holding and torturing thousands of political prisoners, and that a number of people have died as a direct result. According to AI, there have been 22 deaths which can be directly attributed to torture practiced by the Uruguayan government. Some of these people were politically active in organizations which oppose the government; others had no political affiliation. AI says that “governmentally sanctioned torture, whether to extract information, intimidate the opposition and general public, or out of the petty sadism of police and military forces, is morally unacceptable in the third quarter of the twentieth century.” The military took power in Uruguay in the early seventies, after playing an increasingly important role in national affairs over a period of two years. The elected civilian pfesident, Juan Maria Bordaberry, willingly yielded his effective power to the armed forces in what was called an “autogolpe,” or “self-coup.” TUESDAY APRIL 6th Student Senate Meetin Haas Lounge at 4:00 pm * Fright flight Since that time, almost 12 percent of the population has left Uruguay, a nation of approximately 2,5000,000 people. One out of every 50 persons is a member of the police or armed forces, and a similar percentage has suffered from interrogation, arrest, or temporary imprisonment. The original campaign in Uruguay was aimed at the Tupamaros an urban guerilla movement, and began in April of 1972. This group was crushed within a few months, but the repressive activities of the government have continued against all left-of-center organizations, and All Senators must attend The future of U.B. , any elements found to be “subversive.” Methods of torture employed in Uruguay include beatings, burning with cigarettes, deprivation of sleep, thirst, hunger, suspension by the wrists, electric shocks, near-drownings and psychological torture. Victims of the tortures have come from all walks of life, including doctors, lawyers and workers, but more than half of them, according to the information available to AI, have been students. - will be decided at this if it isn't tabled. , Early disclosure The first case to come to public attention was that of Luis Carlos Batalla, which was officially corroborated in 1972. Since Jhen, the authorities in Uruguay havet taken a number of steps to keep other cases from reaching public attention. These steps have included threats to physicians and family members of victims; denials that arrests have , been made; refusals to grant permission that autopsies be performed; and faked suicides. Amnesty International has mounted a world-wide campaign of petitions that will be submitted to the Uruguayan authorities, urging that an independent international body be allowed to investigate the allegations of torture that have been made. Al cites the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the fifth article of which states that; “No one shall be subjected to torture, or to cruel, inhuman, or degrading treatment or punishment.” The hope of Al is that the exposure of these excesses will help to turn Uruguay back toward democracy, so that it can regain the peace it enjoyed when it was known as the “Switzerland ol South America. Election circuit... —continued from page 4 they were “politically apathetic.” Rising to the challenge students of proving it isn’t so, some students staged a mock Democratic convention in early February in the Bowdoin gym, complete with students representing 387 delegates from the 50 states, the territories and the District of Columbia. After hours and hours of long-winded speeches, on-the-floor political arm twisting, many gatherings of small cabals and much chaos, Hubert Humphrey emerged from a smoke-filled room the victor on about the 10th ballot at 2:20 a.m. On the other hand, some University of Texas students have taken a different tact to show off their politics this year. Calling themselves “Students for Nixon-Agnew and Now Reagan (SNANR),” the group has sponsored a “Cans for San Clemente” drive, as well as campaigns entitled “Pennies for Lon Nol” and “Childrens’ Crusade for President Thieu,” saying they were the ex-president’s “favorite charities.” With the entry of politics, Reagan into national SNANR also showed the film, “Bedtime for Bonzo,” which stars the Republican candidate and a chimp. “We felt this campus needed electric political view,” one of the SNANR students explained. our The next best thing to home is THE HILLEL SEDER The Everything Sack—21" x 25", with drawstring and red wooden knobs.

Binghamton, centers Albany and Stony Brook. Of this number, 1.500 attend SUNY at Buffalo. Most major in the - The Office of Foreign Student Affairs (OFSA) will be abolished by July 1,. 1976 as part of the action calling' for legislative massive budget cuts throughout SUNY. All services provided by OFSA will be integrated into existing University branches. Mohammed Malik. Student Association (SA) International Affairs Coordinator, expressed fears that foreign students will no longer receive the attention that they need to cope with the disorientation and “culture shock” that occurs when the students are placed in an sciences and technical fields, and most return to their native country upon completion of their degree. Williams said. Malik, who is from Pakistan, claimed that the OFSA is a convenient location in which foreign students feel comfortable, and it is a place where they can go for all sorts of help. Malik said that he arrived in Buffalo diaonapted and homeless. OFSA staff aided him in finding a house and introducing him to life in this country. Foreign students feel that they must repiain politically inactive (due to their alien status) and hence feel powerless to fight OFSA’s demise. The bill which called for the elimination of OFSA stated that these services would be more appropriately handled by the student affairs office and that “foreign students don’t need a central reference point and identity to help with their problems,” according to Williams. Malik claimed that the legislative committee, which approved the cut, did not sufficiently consider the pros and cons of the decision. Vol. 26, No. 71 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 2 April 1976 Bankruptcy Students taking advantage ? by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum (CPS) If things really get bad for former students who can’t afford to repay their educational they can declare debts, bankruptcy. Bankruptcy means ,no more debtors breathing down i their necks, clean slates and zero credit. As the job market continues to slump, more students are taking advantage of the bankruptcy laws to relieve themselves of debts they are unable to repay. So, apparently, have many other people who have accumulated debts. But the the administration and Laws Commission on Bankruptcy have recently urged Congress to on crack down specifically Divide and lose Malik warned Siggelkow that if student bankruptcy. In response.

But the hardship provision is vague, lobbyists claim, and the decision on whether a student was in real hardship would be left to the direction of the bankruptcy judge or referee. The Pell bill in the Senate contains no hardship provision but would, if passed, allow students to defer loan payments for any one of the five years after the loan payments were due. This would only be moratorium permitted for students who were unemployed for the year. The in concession was made In hearings Some observers believe that the recognition of the “rotten job bills single out market,” the Pell aide explained. bankruptcy students as a class of debtors But there are no assurances different from every other kind of that the job market is going to debtor. “There is no evidence that improve in the next decade and students are worse debtors than college graduates have been anyone else.” a congressional aide warned not to expect professional positions in their fields for awhile. claimed. The House bill, now in hearings In the meantime, students will be before the Postsecondary denied their opportunity for a Education Subcommittee, does fresh start. declared student loans and bankruptcy even though he earned $11,000 annually. The lawyer was later indicted for fraud. Such cases, student lobbyists contend, are the exception rather than the rule. There will always be a few bad debtors attempting to sidestep loan payments. But nowhere is there substantial evidence of students being any more guilty of occasional bouts of cheating than any other single class of debtors. There are many “horror stories,” a National lobbyist Student Association argued, but no exact statistics. O' �GSEU strike vote Supplemental budget 1, 1976 will create a “much more restrictive” financial situation than faced in the current operating year, a University spokesman told the Reporter last week. Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel said that 1976-66 will be more difficult because of several factors. The University’s base budget was reduced by 51,150,000, even before the Executive Budget recommendations were sent to the legislature. This means a cut of 60 full-time employees. The University had requested a pure workload increase of $6.4 million in response to a budgeted enrollment headcount increase of 968. Bad news The Executive Budget did not provide any of the increased workload request. Most fixed costs received increases amounting to $2,735,000. These included United University Professionals (UUP) and Civil Service salary increases. However, major increases in library acquisitions, academic computing other than personal services (OTPS) and graduate student positions, were denied New capital construction and planning monies were ( omitted from this year’s budget. The Executive Budget also made reductions of Diefendorf 146 to discuss the results of the GSEU strike vote and to discuss alternatives for action. All graduate assistants (GA's). teaching assistants (TA’s), $428,000 for rental facilities, and $24,000 in OTPS 133 Faculty Teaching for Health Sciences. positions (FTE) were cut also in F.quivalents addition to converting a number of 12-month jobs to 10 months. Enrollment down Although the original 1976 fall enrollment request was 26,330, budget cuts,have necessitated a scaling down of this figure to 25,400, allowing for no increase over last year. four The Legislature added further cuts positions in University Relations, six in the Foreign Student Office and $104,100 in monies for,utilities. Fogel indicated that as things stand now, 143 lines must be cut. Other positions may have to be frozen to comply with savings requirements. The Graduate student support package in the supplemental budget request is comprised of three components. The first is restoration of $845,000 in State University Scholarship (SUS) funds. The second would be a $389,000 increase in tuition waivers and the third would be to improve the stipends of 1,015 teaching and graduate assistants by an annual rate of $300. In the area of facilities rental, the University administration feels that the $428,000 reduction in rental funds is almost unachievable in 1976-77 because of existing leases and facilities requirements. The University contends that restoration of $423,000 is essential. Funding is also being sought for senior undergraduate students not eligible for money under the new Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) schedule. - Action continuing in fight against statewide cuts by Brett Kline on Franklin Street, in conjunction with students from the three Erie County Community College Feature Editor campuses. “A small, spirited march slowly left Haas Students from the Coalition to Fight Cutbacks, Black Student Union (BSU), and Buffalo State Lounge after the rally. About 75 people, chanting College urged 250 to 300 people in a crowded Haas “They say cut back, we say fight back.” and Lounge Wednesday to vote “Yes” on the strike “Education is our right, we are going out on strike.” referendum now before the undergraduate student entered Diefendorf Hall, marched through the students to join them. The students passed in front of the Parker Engineering Building and filed through Hochstetter Hall. Ten Security guards were reported grouped on the main floor of Hayes Hall, which is next to Hochstetter. Returning to Norton Hall in the rain, the protestors appealed to students to join the march, and, now numbering about 30, returned briefly to Diefendorf Hall and then quietly dispersed. Signatures of undergraduates supporting the seven demands of the Coalition and the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) were not presented to Ketter Wednesday as was originally planned. Signatures now number about 2000, according to a spokesman for the group. They will be presented to Ketter at a future date. building urging body. ballot boxes have been open since Wednesday and the results of the vote should be known tonight. An open forum, on the pros and cons of a strike, was held in Haas Lounge before the rally Wednesday. Asked what was the Student Association’s (SA) official position regarding the strike. Public Information Director Bill Finklestein replied, “SA is not taking a stand on the strike, because we are running the procedures here.” cited as examples speakers Coalition strike-related activities on other campuses across the state. Binghamton students stayed out of classes for two days in a strike that was termed about 70 percent effective by Coalition and SA officials. A rally was held Wednesday to determine further action. A member of the SUNY Board of Trustees will be in Binghamton Friday to talk with students. Students at Hostess Community College in the The UUP action United University Professionals (UUP) chapter their head Charles Fall said in a telephone interview Queens College occupied administration buildings Wednesday, demanding Wednesday night that his union’s Executive meetings with school officials. Committee would immediately vote on some sort of resolution if students decided to strike (see page 3). Bronx and Purchase referendum A referendum calling for four meetings a year between students and the SUNY Board of Trustees, and questioning the Board’s ability to represent SUNY students, was brought before students at Purchase College Wednesday. The referendum also asked students wlrat they thought would be the most appropriate action at the present time. A speaker from Buffalo State College said that if undergraduates at this University call a general strike. Buffalo State students will "stand in complete solidarity with students here."

Ketter on WBFO . . . —continued from page 1 — university is that it is appropriate that the students cover one third ot the cost of their educational experience,” he said. While students complained about paying more for less. Ketter explained that “your dollar outlay while living at home also requires in an inflationary cycle this happens. you to put out more One caller expressed concern that SUNY scholarships would be eliminated. Ketter replied that during the week, the SUNY Board of Trustees voted to recommend reinstatement of the scholarships into the budget, but legislative action is still pending. Another caller questioned Ketter concerning aid to private institutions, pointing out that New York allots $140 million a year to private universities throughout the state. Ketter conjectured that the fact that many members of the State Legislature are private school alumni may have some bearing on these allocations. ... •'’Ketter himself strongly believes in rtcHslnhdWg some of these funds towards state-run institutions. Poor timing ; \ Concerning today’s meeting between Student Association (SA) representatives and legislators to lobby against cutbacks, Ketter said that although the officials are eager to meet with students and lobbying might be an effective means of fighting cutbacks, he pointed out that the timing of the meeting is poor. Meeting with legislators before the cutbacks took place would have been more successful than now, he remarked. The elimination of a program is a “touchy, legal question,” according to Ketter. He said that to minimize the difficulty, they would try to “pljase a program down so that all the students that wish to finish where they started can, in fact, finish.” A student asked why the University can’t “tighten its belt” arfd absorb these cutbacks evenly, as“ opposed to eliminating entire areas. Ketter replied that the procedure in the past was to do exactly that. As people leave or retire from the institution, their vacancy wasn’t filled. But regarding the present financial crisis, he said, “We do not have sufficient turnover to accommodate requirements that have been specified for us. Therefore the next question is do we uniformally tighten our belts throughout the whole institution, or do we selectively make cuts?” FESTIVAL & QFM-97 PRESENT Sot., APRIL 3rd Niagara Falls Convention Center 8:00 P.M.

The Student Services and Parcel B teach-in, was Optimistic reaction Suggestions that the Record Coop and other services on campus pay rent and utilities for the space they use brought optimistic reactions from some of the panelists. Under this plan, the services would continue as non-profit ventures and therefore would remain tax-exempt. Referring to the Coop and other services, Lorenzetti declared that, “if the Coop paid rent, utilities and wages las the bookstore pays wages], it would resolve most of the chaired by Student Association (SA) Vice President for Sub Board Jan Roller.

John Carter, a spokesman for University of Buffalo Foundation (UBF) who was scheduled to attend the forum, was not present, but it was announced that UBS representatives would be present tor today s SA forum with President.Robert Kelter. Turning to FSA and the University Bookstore, high Snyder defended the operation’s allegedly prices, claiming that textbooks are sold on only a 20 percent markup. According to Snyder, “if the Bookstore only sold textbooks, it would go bankrupt.” He stated that other products are sold at a larger markup to offset the lower textbook prices.” Board Lorenzetti opened the forum by describing Student Services as seen by the Sta(\; University (SUNY). the Chancellor’s office, and SUNY’s budgetary office in Albany. According to Lorenzetti, student services fall into four main categories: The Division of Student Affairs, including the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs, Foreign Students Affairs Office, Veterans Affairs, Career Guidance and the Counseling Center. The other Health Service, Admissions and divisions are Records, and miscellaneous student-operated Sub Restrictions Roller Van Nortwick described the can’t.” The second half of the teach-in dealt with Parcel B. He explained that it would be difficult to go into the situation without Carter, the UBF spokesman who was unable to attend. Parcel B, a 17-acre piece of land behind the Bubble on the North Campus, will contain 70,000 square feet of retail space, 20,000 square feet of office space, and 20,000 square feet of space for Student Services. The development will be subsidized by UBF and local businessmen with a possible interest in the project. services. Miscellaneous services are readily delegated to Sub Board, which handles all monies collected from Mandatory Activity Fees, he said. Sub Board is divided into three divisions: Health Care, UUAB and Publications. Lorenzetti then gave some historical background about the fee. It was approved in 1968 by former SUNY Chancellor Samuel Gould, on the basis that the monies would be collected by the University Bursar and then channelled back to Student Governments. In 1970, a student at SUNY at Albany filed suit against SUNY, charging that he was penalized for not paying the fee. The suit contended that since the money was being used for political speakers in which he was not interested, it was illegal to penalize him for not paying. The student won the suit, and SUNY’s appeal to a higher court. Can't be too high! According to the Hammer Report, a document containing tentative plans for the commercial development site. Parcel B, is open to all types of retail outlets to serve both students and the community. These include bookstores, clothing and shoe stores, a movie theater, a hotel, a florist and plant store, a liquor store, banks, and even an Betting establishment. But, as Roller said, the buildings cannot be too high. “It (the shopping center) has to be low because it can’t obstruct the Off-Track Reality Since then, Lorenzetti explained, a referendum is conducted every four years to decide whether or not the Mandatory Fee should continue. Guidelines were established by SUNY and the Chancellor’s office for how the monies may be spent. “Whether we like this or not, this is reality. The only way to undo this (the guidelines) is to vote down the referendum and not collect the fees at all, Lorenzetti remarked. Concerning the Record Coop, Lorenzetti said he could' hot freely discuss details of the situation because the court case is still in litigation, but he did say that the Coop “was not only a matter of mandatory fees.” He claimed that the Coop grew from a small operation in a boiler room in 1971 to an almost ‘S 25 0,000 business “enterprise” when it was temporarily shut down a few months ago. The time arises'When questions are raised by other people ‘ and problems SA and Sub Board have encountered because of SUNY restrictions on mandatory fee expenditures. Roller claims that at times, SA’s hands are tied. “If we wanted to send buses to Albany to lobby [in the State Legislature] for our Budget, we view of the lake.” Several students attacking the project theorized would .that commercial development of Parcel B that One claimed all student services. almost destroy student services would fall by the wayside, like the Record Coop, due to claims of unfair competition. The arguments against the Parcel B project drew from the crowd, and as the loud ovations atmosphere became tense, the panelists reiterated the that they were not the ones responsible for project, and it was unfortunate that the UBF representative was not in attendance. The forum ended with the announcement of a new Student Services Coordinating Committee, sponsored by SA, which meets three times a week in 205 Norton Hall. A committee member said the meetings were “open to everyone on campus, but so far there are only four of us.” Friday, 2 April 1976 The Spectrum .

Three interns will prepare profiles of all candidates in the September primary for New York’s Senate seat, and will work in either New York City or Albany. Two will investigate banking concentration and disinvestment in New York State, and will be based in New York City. According to NYPIRG, the six largest commercial banks in the United States control 30 percent of the nation’s total bank deposits, and funds from one geographic area may be used to promote business in another area, sometimes for political reasons. Applicants with background in economics will be favored for this project. different One intern aspects of the nuclear power controversy, and writing skills are considered a must. Another will be hired to investigate the possibility of opening a Consumer Complaint Center in Brooklyn to aid citizens in small claims court cases. A law student will aid in NYPIRG’s litigation program and two more interns will study the amount of pollutants in the Hudson River. NYPIRG’s most ambitious summer project will involve converting school a bus into a mobile teach-in and taking it to County Fairs across the state to distribute literature, sell publications and conduct public forums. Three interns will be hired, and strong preference will be given to applicants willing to continue working on the project in the fall. Most openings have no specific qualifications, and each application is carefully reviewed. “Generally, we look for interest and dedication to ten weeks of hard work,” said NYPIRG Director Donald Ross.

But then again, what is an ideal society? That may soon be the raging debate around the Jefferson County jail if Sheriff Harold Bray’s ad in Jobs in Philosophy magazine comes through. Bray, disappointed with the way deputies with other backgrounds dealt with crime in his county, took out the ad in the American Philosophical Association’s journal to recruit new deputies and he says the response so far has been “good.” “Philosophy is no farther out than a lot of backgrounds,” explains Bray, a PhD who specializes in Baruch Spinoza, the 17th century Dutch thinker. “In Plato’s republic, philosophers are the guardians of the state.” Bray escews the traditional cop’s view that police work is all busting heads and wailing sirens. He feels law enforcement’s task is to maintain public peace so that people may pursue their own brand of - happiness. “Aristotle said the goal of life is happiness,” declared Deputy Sheriff Duncan Bradley, Bray’s first philosophical recruit. on Pheremones; Find out nothing B.O. is bad, most everyone especially agrees.

APRIL 6th All Senators must attend The future of U.B. if research �Perlo says financial plight of schools could be alleviated by State corporations as the main source of poverty in the state. Perlo pointed out that banks here have made record profits in spite of the economic crisis. “How can it be otherwise when the state and city are openly run by bankers’ committees.” by Philip Moran StaffWriter Spectrum Victor Perlo, the leading economist in the Corrimunist Party of the United States, told students in Haas Lounge Wednesday night that despite claims of bankruptcy and poverty, much can be done to ease the financial plight of the schools in New York State. Perio’s lecture addressed the economic and political roots of the crisis in education in the state and the Tax too high Perlo indicated that only a 1 percent tax bn the market values of stocks, bonds and mortgages of banks and insurance companies in the state would be sufficient, for the time being, to solve all of the financial problems of the state. Of course, Perlo said, greater measures against the banks and big business could be taken that would achieve even greater victories in easing the financial crisis. Perlo said the other major drain on funds for education are state revenues squandered by the federal government on military spending. Perlo quoted New York Times business writer Sidney Fisch as saying that New York City and the metropolitan area paid $26 billion to the Federal government last year, and only got $3 billion back. Out of this $23 billion dollar loss, $8 billion went for official military spending, and $14 billion wfeiit fot related military spending, corporate subsidies, and funds for the CIA and FBI. Perlo declared, “Today the struggle against war and militarism and against the racist offensive has to be a key component to save education.” Saying that enormous military spending drains funds fpr education and goes hand in hand with racist wars like Vietnam, Perlo declared that no successful fight against military spending can be conducted unless there is a ideological struggle against the “Big Lies” used to justify record spending on military hardware. Perlo singled out the “Big Lies” of the “Soviet menace” and the danger of the Soviet Union outspending the U.S. government in defense spending. He condemned such liberal candidates as Morris Udall and Fred Harris for accepting the anti-Soviet lies of their conservative opponents. Perlo said the threat of Soviet “aggression” is a CIA concocted myth and that what the capitalist politicians are really crying about are the “historically inevitable” successes of the working class and the liberation movements that emerge out of country. Pointing out that the capitalist system of private appropriation breeds “wars, crises, racism, unemployment, inflation and monstrous corruption,” and that the crisis of education can only be solved completely through socialism, Perlo nevertheless stressed the necessity of building mass movement around the immediate issues of the deterioration of education and of social services which meet peoples’ needs. According to Perlo, these struggles can improve the conditions of life for millions and help lay the; foundation for the construction of socialism. ‘Reactionary offense’ Perlo said there is a financial and political “reactionary offensive” now under way against education and that it has a racist character. The political offensive is shown in the exclusion of blacks and minorities from faculty positions, and the elimination of progressive and radical faculty members from universities. The attack on progressive teachers is carried out by means of the “notorious contract system,” which “puts a faculty member on good behavior to the capitalist trustees befote he can get tenture rights.” Instances of discrimination against Marxist teachers pnd other progressives should be opposed by all sectors, Perlo skid. He called for unions which would discrimination against radicals, as well as blacks, women, and third world peoples. Perlo stressed the financial attack op the university; tuition hikes, the wiping out of scholarship funds, the “super-exploitation” of graduate assistants, and the elimination of popular university programs. He addressed the “lack of money” argument used to justify the financial offensive against education. Citing exorbitant salaries of high-level administrators and the high interest rates charged on construction bonds for school buildings as only contributing causes, Perlo singled out the tax laws favorable to the rich, the banks and the , | I capitalism. Another anti-Soviet slander is that it is exceeding the U.S. in defense spending, Perlo explained. Citing U.S. and Soviet budget statistics, Perlo said the U.S. spends three to four times more on the military than the Soviet Union. The capitalists’ arguments become entangled in a web Victor Perlo of contradictions, according to Perlo. For example, he said, the U.S. is always arguing that the Soviet economy is inefficient. On the other hand, they argue that the Soviet Union gets more military hardware for their money than we do because the U.S. economy suffers from inflation while the Soviet economy does not. Therefore, the U.S. government is justified in Spending more on defense than the Soviet Union. For the ruble Perio agreed that the Soviet Union does get more “defense for their ruble” but that the main reason the Soviet Union can protect itself without draining its whole economy is because the Soviet Union really spends on defense, and not on offensive and destructive weapons. Perlo said Pentagon generals openly admit this when they say that the Soviet military spending is “defense oriented.” Perlo said the American people must force their government to help make detente and peace an irreversible process. The Communist Party is the only party in the presidential campaign with an anti-war stance, he added and a vote for the Communist Party “is the most important vote you will ever make.” The Spectrum syndrome 9 The whimpering puppy tale by Cliff Dickson Spectrum Staff Writer In high school your pen glided across the page as jf the ink were replaced with quicksilver.

Syndrome The syndrome is a combination of the staff writer’s fear of being edited, his creative frustration and the irrepressible urge to violate the anal regions of the paper’s editorial staff with a hot soldering iron. Veteran staff writer Jerry Rosoff describes the illness.‘The Spectrum Staff Writer Syndrome is the first stumbling block on the road to a weekly column in The New York Times.

The highest court in the land, acting without hearing oral arguments on the issue and opinion, without writing an has thus upheld an On March 19, 1976,1 was arrested at Hayes Hall while demonstrating against the proposed cut-backs for the State University system. I am writing this letter so as to clear up any subsequent misunderstandings which have resulted from this arrest. Firstly, I have been charged with two counts of “disorderly conduct,” of which I am innocent. I was standing in the Hayes Hall doorway, outside the building, unable to move either in or out, when several members of Campus Security pulled me into the building. The following day, the 20th of March, the Courier Express, for unknown reasons implied that I was a member of the Revolutionary Student Brigade and the Buffalo Evening News made a loose inference that I, and other demonstrators, are a “different type of student.” I don’t know the exact meaning of this latter statement, attributed to an anonymous “University spokesman,” but I would say that neither implication is correct. I’m a SUNYAB student, like those of you reading this, who believes in quality education and social justice. It was for these causes that I had joined the demonstration that day, for President Ketter apparently believes neither ideal. Now I am beset by judicial and financial problems (hardships) which impede my academic energies. But this apparently cannot be altered. What can be altered is the oppressive course taken by some University administrators, as well as the larger course of this University towards establishing and implementing these goals of quality education and social justice. Thus I urge all GSEU members and undergraduate students to support the struggle at hand. Stephen C. Kline anachronistic 200 year old Virginia law that makes sodomy years in jail and a $1000 fine.

Unfortunately, The Spectrum has seen fit to hold out unwarranted hope to the student body; therefore this letter must help the students realize the importance of voting NO on the proposed student strike. There is very little chance of additional funds for SUNY in the supplemental budget being approved by the State Legislature, especially since there is almost no chance of the Legislature raising taxes this year. This is an election year, remember? Besides this, any additional aid for college students will probably go to individual aid rather than institutional aid. This is the prevailing feeling among Republican State Senators, who, for all intents and purposes, control the state. It is unlikely that supplemental monies would have an effect upon UB undergraduates. UB is the school that SUNY Central has requested the most funds for in the supplemental budget. However, the vast majority of this money is slated for graduate programs. SUNY was cut much more in the areas of Colleges of Liberal Arts and Sciences than in I he University centers, (Colleges; i.e., Buff State. Brockport, New Paltz). By all rights, these schools should have first priority in supplemental funds, so that they may be restored to last year’s level of funding. Buff State has been cut S1.2 million from last year’s level. To spend/our energies in organizing a strike which can only hurt our primary reasons for being part of a University community, that is, our job as students, is counterproductive. A strike is not, in my opinion, the way to appeal to the largest possible fraction of students. STudent strikes often lead to divisiveness between student factions, especially at schools with' great diversity in their student populations, instead, students’ efforts should be directed towards more noncontroversial methods of influencing legislators, such as letters, telegrams, and personal visits at local offices, combined with following through by voting in November. Legislators do not give as much weight to student protests as they give to protests by other groups, because the simple truth of the matter is that young people do not vote. Strikes also bring with them the possibilities of mass disorder and even violence. Ninety percent of the time and energy spent on the Attica issue last year was spent in trying to get the arrested students out of trouble. That was the result of the, last “strike.” To paralyze our student government for a month or two could prove fatal to most of. pur studviil services. A strike would most likely be a problem which would require an overwhelming amount of time, thus paralyzing the government. Whether the Coalition realizes it or not, and whether Spectrum realizes it Pr not, they may be 'Tin• engaging in exactly the form of useless, wasteful, protest that the administration would love to see, I suggest that we, the students, reject this dangerous, divisive and unproductive path and look to the piore effective method of turning the rascals out.

It assembles a portrait of her from many sources; films of her performances with Big Brother and Full Tilt Boogie, her famous TV interview with Dick Cavett, and her high school reunion. Claude Berri's Le Sex Shop is a frothy, naughty comedy satirizing our fascinations with sex, gadgetry, and status; it tells of a normal Parisian whose job in a store dealing in the exotic erotic makes him over-conscious of keeping up with the latest in the perverse. The midnight show (tonight and tomorrow night) is a resurrected classic of 50’s kitsch-horror, Eyes of Hell.

Prodigal Sun �r Brolin and Clayburgh If you liked Xove Story/ see 'Goble and Lombard' by Kenneth Normen Spectrum Arts Staff If you liked Love Story, you'll love Gable and Lombard. It's the story of two young lovers who find each other in a zany first meeting. It's a boy-meets-girl story. Boy meets girl. Girl runs boy's car off road. Boy threatens girl. Girl flattens boy. Boy gets salad on head. Girl gets cake in face. True love blooms. It's the story of a man and a woman who struggle to stay together and find they have to fight the whole world solely on the strength of their love for each other. She fought tooth and nail to reach the top. He stumbled into stardom. They seemed to be the most unlikely couple ever to get together, especially since Gable was still married to someone else. However, anyone who sees this movie will be glad they did. Child actor James Brolin as Clark Gable is a little boy in a man's bqdy. He is too naive for Hollywood society, and determined to remain "just a farm boy from Ohio." This boyish charm and simplicity makes him a magnet for audience empathy from the start, despite a certain stiffness in Brolin's mannerisms and speech that makes his character more a C ark Gable imitation than another Clark Gable. Jill Clayburgh, as Carole Lombard, is just what Brolin's Gable needs to begin to realize his personality. At first she's a challenge to Gable's male ego because she is as big a star as he is and Sees herself as at least twice that. Brolin's stiffness makes Gable appear to be a slow-witted, super-macho oaf. Lombard strips this away by forcing Gable to compete with her in wit and personality. When she continually degrades and rejects him, he comes out with his first display of any sort of emotion in telling her what he thinks — GOOD FOOD RESTAURANT Hong Kong Chicken with vegetable.

Throughout their love relationship, she criticizes him for beinp so cool. It takes a big fight for him to finally say, "I love you." We can certainly feel sorry for Lombard as she falls for Gable like an over-emotional ton of bricks, telling him that he is the only man who ever meant anything to her, and that now he means everything, while he remains so cool/calm and collected.

Monday, 10-8 Tuesday, 10-2&4-8 Nevertheless Gable and Lombard leaves audiences feeling sorry for no one. In fact, it is generally like a situation comedy. The screenplay is very strong in entertainment value, with an abundance of good comedy situations combined very well with scenes of strong pathos. The end product is a film that takes you into the stars' lives, crying and laughing with them. The climax of the movie includes their victory over Hollywood's oppression. Gable's wife's consent to a divorce, and their victorious discrediting of a paternity suit plaintiff all in the same day. Wednesday, 10-8 Thursday, 10-2 Friday 10-12 & 2-4 — In the grand old Hollywood tradition, this movie is pure escapism, and very good escapism too. Allen Garfield as movie mogul Louis Mayer is a big asset, as is Red Buttons as Gable's manager.* The biggest thing that the film has going for it the names "Gable and Lombard," but the screenplay, however historically inaccurate it may be, is good enough to stand on its own without the appeal of the stars it was named for.

Page nine �'Alley Between Our Houses' The whole is not the sum of its by Terry Koler Spectrum Arts Staff A grave problem arises when the whole is not the sum of its parts. The Alley Between Our Two Houses, written by Jeff Brooks, encounters such a problem. While the acting cannot be faulted and the scenery is adequate to convey the messages each scene intends, the scenes themselves lack the explanation necessary to enable the play to flow smoothly and stand on its own merits. The opening scene introduces the audience to Sol, the lead character, home for the summer recess from Stanford. He has a penchant for reading by a garbage can in the alley by his house. The scene quickly changes to a session between a therapist and her retarded patient. Here the play runs into the problem of lacking continuity between the first and second scenes. To further compound the confusion, each actor plays several different roles throughout the play; rather than continuing in the same characterization, the role is lost in another portrayal. Not according to Webster's The schenes, which alternate between reality and fantasy, are not defined clearly enough to let the audience folly appreciate their meaning. This, however, is not to say that the scenes are not done well. They are. In each scene, be it Sol's imagination bringing human attributes to cats or his mother's actress Mary Jo Lipinczyk's plea to a ghost of yesteryear, the acting reflects painstaking diligence and rehearsal. The voices are clear and falter only when the script calls for faltering. A confusing sequence of scenes begins with Sol's nightmare envisioning his love, Maria, masochistically dehumanizing herself before an unfeeling, god like man. Sol also sees himself running to her rescue and then realizing that she would rather have the disinterest of the god-man than his love. Then there is a scene in which Sol relates his fears to a psychiatrist, followed by one showing him and his mother on board a slave ship brutally driven by the slave master, and giving way to a string of fantasy scenes taking place in a cave and a monastery. Finally, Sol envisions Maria as a num, making love to him. — / Laying the blame That is how the play ends at intermission, leaving a bewildered audience pondering whether their confusion is their own problem or the play's. Proceeding from the premise that a work must either stand or fall on its own merit, without further explanation, it appears that the play was most likely at fault. According to the author's explanation of his work, which, he says, is a play travelling between "alleged poles" rather than "having a theme or message," the first act details the problems of love, while the second act deals with those of heroin. The second act seems totally divorced from the first, except for the carry-over of the characters of Sol and Maria. There is the introduction of two of Sol's friends and his reaction to pot, in a schoolyard scene, as well as his first try at heroin, done to please Maria. A fantastic performance is turned in Debra Granieri as Viva, the heroin distributor. She never sways frofn her "four letter" repertoire. There is also a fine soliloquy by Maria during a heroin trip. The finale is perhaps the most confusing scene of all. All of the characters are assembled on stage, first pointing to Sol and then to a garbage picker, who sings ". goin' down cripple creek, goin' downtown..." now portraying a dancer.- Sol leaves the scene, touching most of the characters and finally going out of sight. The fault of the production may lie in Ray Munro's direction, or perhaps in its actual composition. Either way, Alley definitely cannot stand as is. ..

The remainder of the country-rock audience will have to be content with Eagles/Doobie Brothers schlock or the rehashed sound of competent non entities like the Outlaws or Pure Prairie League while deciding whether or not to give Poco one. more chance. It is ironic that Poco Live is not a breakthrough album. Poco has always been hailed as one of those "you-gotta'-see-'em-live" bands that keep record companies interested through their live reputations. Witness the Allman Brothers, Bruce Springsteen, Peter Frampton. Their excellent first live album. Deliverin', almost pushed them to the top. Now, eight albums later, Poco's second attempt at the live-rep formula is as much a failure as it is belated. Poco could match bad-break stories with almost anybody in show-biz. The worst was when a Texas radio station fat cat censored sure-hit single "Come On" off of the air and out of the charts. But their nemesis has been lack of direction, not bad breaks. Unlike such talents as Todd Rundgren and Nils Lofgren, they haven's decided upon which aspect of their sound is most valuable to them. Poco Live points to a path which could reduce them to the inanity of "liT bit 'o country litt|e-bit-of-rock and roll" Donny and Marie Osmond. The following of this please everyone formula can only leave the Poco discipleship to mumble, "It's good, it's good, but it should be so much better." Side one begins with a country medley which is a first rate performance of second rate material. Next is’ a sparkling rendition of guitarist Paul Cotton's acoustic masterpiece, "Bad Weather." This side ends with "Ride The Country," which contains a delicate guitar duet which is cut much too short. Side two is more electric and more rock. The eerie spaciness of "Angel" opens things up with a sound which is out of character but a welcome change of pace. The rest "High and Dry." "Restrain" and of the album is great patty music "Good Feeling to Know" though nowhere is the locked up potential of these full blast rockers ever really unleashed. The vocals on Poco Live are good by rock standards, but for a group that built its reputation on plush high harmonies and country a cappella that surpassed everyone in the field, just plain good is not much of an accomplishment. In fact; performance by all members is "good," but in an art-form as limited as rock, good is never good enough performers must always push their material as far as it will go. Even the finger picking virtuosity of Rusty Young (who plays six different instruments and has pioneered pedal steel techniques which have won him the reverence of his colleagues and the honor of being staff consultant for Guitar Player Magazine) is hardly evident on this album. Poco Live is on the Epic label and must surely fulfill the group's contract obligations to Epic. They are currently signed with ABC Dunhill which, so far, doesn't seem to be doing much more for them than Epic did. Perhaps the ABC execs are also mumbling Guest Speaker, Reb.

But beware the girl-child who crosses Nils only to encounter his wrath: "We're going to the river/ I sure hope you can float/ Good luck." The musical cast of characters that comprise the changing nucleus of Lofgren’s studio band is uniformly excellent. Aynsley Dunbar's drumming is explosive and Tom Lofgren's guitar harmonies bespeak an intimate brotherly communication with Nils. Lofgren's voice is a pleasing mixture of waifish innocence and hard nosed raunch. The backing vocals, courtesy of Nils, Buddy Miles, Claudia Lennear and others, are effectively integrated into the total sound scheme. Lofgren vividly demonstrates his talent for playing a blistering guitar, sublime simplistic tunes, and an affinity with the nuances of rock vocalizing. Place all these pieces together and you have a chilling rock and roll manifesto. Cry Tough will produce tears of joy for anyone vaguely interested with the fate of rock. So simply roll up your sleeve and get your shot of Rock 'n Roll via Nils Lofgren. —C.P. Fark as - 2/25 Lb.

The geneology of Nils' mountain climb to pop popularity began with Neil Young. Lofgren, after introducing himself to Young, gained the privileged sitting in on Young's After the Gold Rush sessions. He played piano and provided backing vocal support. Parting from Young, who was busy journeying through the mad shadows of the past. Nils formed Grin. Essentially a Lofgren vehicle, Grin was the arena where Nils could hone his craft by quietly constructing infectious melodies that were sired by demonic guitar work. After producing four albums with Grin, each attaining modest success at best. Nils figured it Was time to test his wings for a solo flight. The result was an album, suitable enough titled Nils Lofgren, which began to fan the flames of excitement over his potential and growth. A&M cleverly augmented the level of anticipation by releasing an authorized bootleg to wet the whistle of critics and radio jocks, and to create and stimulate an eager audience for Nils' next move. That next-movement is Cry Tough, and it's a superbly executed collection of fireworks. Perhaps Nils' greatest attribute resides in his intuitive ability to hit the rock jugular vein with unerring accuracy. Throughout, Lofgren's rhythms swell with a seductive allure which collars your attention from the first accentuated beat right through the rousing choruses and hooks. The production, by David Briggs and veteran rock artifact and flim-flam man Al Kooper, colors and layers the music, yet never derails its firey intensity. The implementation of synthesizers and horns are employed tvith the best of taste, always furthering Nils' rock vision and never intrude as mere studio frills. What is intriguing and finally amusing about Lofgren is his quasi-romantic lyrics. In classic punk prose Nils spins out lyrics that are so drenched with adolescent concerns that you can almost smell the Clearasil. Lofgren's writing centers on fidelity in a relationship that more often than not terminates in betrayal and heartbreak. Traditional motifs such as unrequited love find expression in "Can't Get Closer" which chronicles the tale of a guy who can't — - - STUDENT TICKETS ONLY ONE BUCK!!

They call themselves The Good Old Boys and perform- like they're a bunch of guys just getting together for a Saturday night of fiddling around. A few of the songs here are ones previously done by the New Riders except they're framed in a pure country vein. All of th§ cuts are two minute foot-tappin' numbers that go flying faster than the ear can hear. These boys sing together (not necessarily harmonizing) and do their pickin' damned fast. Take) note of such instrumentals as "Banjo Signal" and "Too Wise Special" where you can hear each member of this banc£ solo from speaker to speaker and you'll probably Wonder how these gdys can move their fingers so rapidly. Jerry Garcia produced this fine record and took the trouble to make the recording sound tinny to give the effect of one of those old Flatts and Scruggs albums your granny played on her victrola.

The fiddle accompaniment by Chubby Wise might give the impression to your friends that you're a genuine emergence into the world of jazz with its Horizon label. The artist roster represents a broad spectrum, including Dave Brubeck, Sonny Fortune and Jim Hall in addition to Dave Liebman and Thad Jones and Mel Lewis.

Both Thad and Mel were veterans of the brilliant Gerry Mulligan big band. Unquestionably it was that aggregation which was the inspiration for the current Jazz Orchestra. Much of the credit for the sound of the orchestra must go to Thad Jones. His charts are fresh and exciting, the arrangements original and swinging. The members of the orchestra are far too numerous to list individually, but there must be some mention of Roland Hanna's timely piano work, the energetic trumpet of Jon Faddis, as well as Thad Jones' expressive flugelhorn. Dee Bridgewater's bravure "The Great One," vocal performance on accompanied by chorus growls of "We loved him, We needed him, WeTI miss him," make it the definitive testimonial. Buffalo's own Frank Foster is superb on tenor in the album's final selection, "A Good Time Was Had By All." The incorporation of Armstrong Dixieland codes is demonstrative of the timelessness of his works. In this year of nostalgic commerciality, Suite for Pop looks over its shoulder with enough simple honesty to recall the renaissance of the big band sound. Doc Severinsen, I hope you're listening. Let me add a quick word about A&M Records „ Announcing: • > since iui Kingfish (Round) Grateful Dead guitarist Bob Weir has joined New Rider's bassist Dave Torbert to create Kingfish, a group named for the sea's mystical trident bearer. Together with three unknowns, they have produced an album of wide musical variation and taste. Although Weir is basicallly a rhythm guitarist, he is quite capable of writing solid songs. "Lazy Lightnin' is a great opener; a good up tempo number, but not so out of control that the following cuts seem tired by comparison. "Supplication" uses great special effects: believe it or not, this track sounds like portions of the Moddy Blues' collection Every Good Boy Deserves Favor, with its single word lines and constant repetition of the lyric's last syllable. Torbert's influence is felt probably to a greater extent on this album than Weir's. Both "Wild Northland" and "Asia Minor" have a Western flavor, as does "Big Iron," the account of a gun battle and other such desert fantasies, Matthew Kelley, the third guitarist of this assemblage; is also an adept harpist. He rounds out many tracks perfectly, joining with lead guitarist Robby Hoddinott to give a touch that ordinarily a pedal steel would supply. Kelly shines brightly with a wilde harp solo on "This Time," co-authored with Torbert. Although the Dead were originators of a style that has yet to be duplicated successfully, Weir and Torbert have borrowed from techniques of others with promising results. I seem to hear the Eagles and Poco singing out those oohs and aahs in "Big Iron." The reggae influence is here too, in a traditional entitled "Bye and Bye." And of course, the Good Old G.D., moves like a spirit through "Jump for Joy" (running back to Frisco). Aside from all the aforementioned influences, the best track is one that is completely unique. hick Watch for The Good Old Boys at the Mini-Folk Festival this weekend. They’re definitely worth a look-see for some get-down-to-it bluegrass. —Drew Kerr " I "Hypnotized" has a stunning rhythm track, with Weir doing some of his best guitar work on the album. Drummer Chris Herrold takes a beautiful ■percussion break midway through the song. The variety on this disc is so diverse that one can appreciate what group members could do if given free rein to explore. Weir and Torbert are able to evade one particular mold. To most Jerry Garcia and John Dawson represent the major figures in the Dead and the Riders, but the two leaders in Kingfish have proven that they are integral members of both bands. Weir has always been my personal favorite of the Dead, and this album showcases his talent marvelously. Finally, we have gotten a solo release without "Playin' in the Band." Let's hope to see more of this in the future. —Barbara Komansky Friday, 2 April 1976 . The Spectrum . Page thirteen �{ VOT1 | I TODRY | ' , ; I| .

No rift in CSA To the Editor. dismayed by the displayed in Mr. John Fung’s letter which appeared in The Spectrum on March 29. I was compelled to write to you because of the incorrect picture presented by Mr. Fung of the Chinese students and their organization I was shocked irresponsibility and and immaturity here. r Mr. Fung says: “already there is a rift between the Chinese students, Cantonese and Mandarin." I strongly disagree with him on this. The fact that Chinese students from Hong Kong and Taiwan speak different dialects (though they use same written language) does cause some difficulties in their communication, and there is indeed a lack of communication among some students. But there has never been any antagonistic feelings or rift between them that I, a five-year-old Buffalonian, have ever heard of, except some personal conflicts between individuals. Indeed, friendship and cooperation have grown. This should be evident to those who have taken part in the various kinds of activities organized by the CSA in the past year. One good example is this year’s China Night which, without the full support and cooperation of the Chinese students both from Hong Kong and Taiwan, would never have been made possible. Mr. Fung’s assertion of a rift between Chinese students from Hong Kong and Taiwan and his suggestion of a possible separate club for students from Taiwan seemed to me that he, for some reason, was trying to sow discord among us. Mr. Fung acted very irresponsibly when he charged the Service Party on the grounds of what he had overheard (J!), instead of its published policies and goals, which happen to be opposite to his $ W1W.’ • I also didn’t understand Mr. Fung’s undue dpncem over the Service Party which he claimed to inactive, unorganized, disunited and have not qtfnpaigned much at all. It soundjgvwy strange and ' - k logical. »r* ;:v I also would like to take this opporutnity to appeal to our new president and his officers, Whoever they’ll be: To promote the understanding between Chinese and American students, to appreciate each other’s culture. 1 suggest that the CSA organize cultural or social activities involving both Chinese and American *** Objectionable procedures To the Editor: We, the undersigned graduate assistants, would like to bring to the attention of The Spectrum, as well as the University community, the objectionable voting procedures used ih the recent Graduate Student Employees’ Union election. On March 31 we went to Norton Hall to cast our ballots. The individual manning the ballot box instructed us to mark the ballot, place it in a white, legal envelope, write our names and departments on that envelope, and seal them. We were then told to place the envelopes in the ballot box. When we highly protested that this procedure was objectionable we were told that we could not vote unless we followed this procedure. The person overseeing the balloting explained that a certified public accountant or a notary public would check the names on the envelopes to make sure that only ballots of graduate assistants and teaching assistants would be counted and that “ballots and envelopes would be separated later.” Any democratic election process necessitates the complete secrecy of election ballots. The G.S.E.U. should have taken the necessary steps prior to this election to obtain a computerized list of all graduate assistants and teaching assistants. I.D.'s could have been checked at the time of balloting, and names could have been checked off the appropriate lists. Though we do not doubt the sincerity of the G.S.E.U., we must protest the manner in which this election was conducted. Michael D. Kitchman, Graduate Assistant Student Testing and Research .

Nichols, Graduate Assistant Student Testing and Research: Graduate Student Department of Counselor Education - All in vcdn To the Editor: I propose that we walk away from all this shit only people who know where the enigmatic “it” is at, are not in college. They certainly would not join politicians protesting another’s politics. The whole scehe is self-contained and without resolution for the common student. Choosing between Ketter and Schwartz is like choosing between Humphrey and Nixon. If we believe that we are being persecuted in college, then why don’t we drop our asses out of college. Are we handcuffed to our desks by society? We came in dumb and we’II go out dumb, too. If Ellicott is half empty next year and no one pays IRC dues. I’m sure there will be some changes. If the cause is noble, then all dictators who receive stipends for non-teaching posts won’t mind forfeiting their stipends for the continuance of our already mediocre services. But let’s stop dreaming, all involved in this “cutbacks fightbacks” crap are in it for the money. (If they can’t take it with them, they don’t want to go.) Go ahead and strike. Follow the student revolutionaries who scream for the sixties. Get your goddamn accounting degree. Find a wife, raise a family. Vote for Carter and live in suburbia. At least you knew what the sixties were all about. Orwell haunts my mind: “and the pigs looked like the men, and the men looked like pigs; soon one couldn’t tell the difference.” The pigs and men were arguing over the ace of spades. talk. The They say cutbacks, we say fight back, I say bullshit. Let’s face it boys and girls, the sixties are over. We can’t spend the next 20 years living someone else’s myth. Turning off the sound of the protestor’s bull horn one can easily see Hitler or Mussonlini leading the mindless populace. These students are playing Ketter’s game, living Ketter’s rules. If this is enlightenment, give me ignorance. If this is the “new order” of things, give me anarchy. We cannot follow the reason of crypto-fascist reverie. Are these “student organizers” (for economy of space I’ll call them dictators) looking out for our best interests? Obviously no one wants to pay more for fewer services. What happens if student services are cut? Fewer student services mean lower stipends for these dictators; perhaps the elimination of some dictatorial posts. Consequently, the dictators have the wisdom to recognize the necessity of student services. They are Ketter. They only care about their phoney-baloney jobs and money. They call for the resignation of Ketter. They dream of taking over his post. The dictators' belies* they could be Our enlightened and benevolent despots.

A Concerned Chinese Strident Strike vote denied To the Editor As an MFC Undergrad I was not allowed to vote in the strike referendum. Upon investigation I was told that MFCSA gave a statement of support to SA which eliminated the need to have MFC students vote. The question I now have is not whether to strike or not, but what gives SA and MFCSA the right to arbitrarily deny me and the rest of the MFC students the right to vote on so important an issue. I would think that if a strike is agreed upon and any MFC. students cannot attend class that they would have the right to bring suit against SUNY for loss of services as a result of not being allowed to vote.

Let all your -memories be happy ones. v. / A young man who uinlersiands As faculty, we would like to express our support for the current unionizing efforts of the graduate students at this University. There are at present approximately 1100 teaching assistants and graduate assistants on this campus. It has been estimated that, in their various capacities, they are responsible for about 40 percent of the teaching of undergraduates at this institution. However,' the significant role they play in the educational process is frequently overlooked. This is the case largely because historically graduate student teachers have been seen as “apprentices.” In today’s University, however, it is also true that in significant numbers they are employees with large educational responsibilities. As a consequence, their relationship to the administration of the University is in many ways similar to that of faculty. Not only do TA’s handle recitation sections, but in many departments they have full responsibility for whole courses. Elsewhere, they perfrom tasks that non-student professionals are regularly employed to do. Under these circumstances, unionization and collective bargaining are both appropriate and necessary to ensure quality education, high morale, and good working conditions. Among other things, the graduate students are asking for a guarantee of tuition waivers and a S4000 minimum wage. Certainly without the former, few graduate students would be able to continue their study at all, and graduate work would become a luxury to be pursued only the by relatively wealthy. and hence, In addition, graduate education in general at this undergraduate education University would be severely jeopardized, (iraduate - students have been funded at the same level for many years now, and given the high rate of inflation of the ’70’s, the need for a fairer, more realistic wage should be self-evident. Not only are such demands reasonable in themselves, but it is also in the interests of faculty to support them. The conditions of our own work are significantly affected by the fact that graduate students, in classrooms, laboratories, and offices, shoulder as much responsibility for the work of the University as they do. We urge all faculty to support, in whatever ways they think feasible, the organizing efforts of the Graduate Student fEmployees Union.

Unsupproted by reality as this ideas is, man is always uneasy and threatened by the possibility that woman will one day claim her full right to human existence, so he has found ways to enslave her. He has married her, and through the family, binds her to him as wife and mother to his children. He has kept her helpless and dependent, forcing her to work when he needed her labor, beating her isolating her, (physically or psychologically), and as a final proof of his power and her debasement as a possession, a thing, a chunk of > meat, he has raped her.

Rubin Sports Editor One of my fonder boyhood memories is heading down to Healey’s Luncheonette on Long Beach Road next door to one of the many bars in my hometown of Island Park. (Although it isn’t documented, Island Park probably has more bars and liquor stores percapita than any other community in Nassau County.) Every spring, Healey’s was always the first place around town to get in the latest shipment of baseball cards. Along with good weather, the appearance of baseball cards each spring was always a landmark event. It signalled the beginning of that agonizing time between the start of spring and the end of the school year. Those first baseball cards, along with little league registration, and opening day, made school seem like an absolute r, waste of time. ;/ It is true that some things change. School still seems f., never ’like a waste of time, and I still have that boyish mentality when it comes to baseball. Now that I have a driver’s license and a car the urge to purchase a "Tew packs of 1976 bicentennial year cards was too much. Unfortunately, I failed to remember that I am in that grand city of Buffalo. Back home on Long Island, every 5 and 10 store, • and drug store carried baseball cards all season long. But in Buffalo, people laugh at you when you ask them if they carry baseball cards. And if they don’t laugh, they look at you as if you were some kind of an idiot. My search for baseball cards was long and arduous. Rite Aid Drugs, Park Edge, Ulbrich’s, Super supermarket, Duper, Bailey-Lisbon Drugs, Two Guys and Muellers were all lacking the beloved rectangular pieces of cardboard. I went into Lee’s Drugs, and I asked them if they had “Bubble Gum Cards.” Bubble Gum Cards is the somewhat antiquated name for baseball cards, but it appears to be the name best understood by local merchants. The cashier said yes, they had them, and I raced to the spot she pointed out. But I was totally crestfallen when I discovered that they stocked just hockey and football cards, mere afterthoughts of Topps’ baseball creation. That’s real nerve. My search finally ended at a local Convenient Food Mart, and I vowed at that moment to more patronize that store regularly as a token of my gratitude. I noticed that the price has changed somewhat in the pasf few years, probably due to the high salaries players get these days. The old five cards and a stick of stale bubble gum for a nickel routine has been replaced by a more Professors against varsity team cuts As far as Student Association (SA) is concerned, if track, cross country, and fencing are to continue at all next year, they will do so who are only on a club level. But there are other people around campus not so sure that the three orphans have indeed received the permanent >«n inflationary fifteen cents for ten cards and the same stick of stale gum. I bought four packs. I staved off the urge to open my packs right then and there, preferring to wait until I could truly revel at my desk in The Spectrum office. They now sit in front of me as I write, and I had the most trying of experiences opening them. As a staunch Met fan, I was hopeing for a least a Jerry Grote or a Mike Phillips, if not a Tom Seaver or an Ed Kranepool. The first pack produced nothing, however. Ron Cey and Richie Zisk were the only proven professionals I got. The second pack was no better. Not only were there no Mets, but no Yankees came up either. I did pick up the 529-660 Checklist, though, and it sported the names of such greats as Henry Aaron, Tug McGraw, and Bert Campaneris. There were players turkeys on the list too like Dyar Miller, Marc Hill, Adrian Garrett, and Stan Wall. And of course, there were regular guys like Stan Bahnsen, Clarence Gaston and Wayne Twitchell. The third pack was good and bad. I finally got a New Yorker. But he was a real turkey. He was a Yankee, and if that’s not bad enough he was Dick Tidrow, possibly the worst player on a team of losers. But at least he was a New Yorker. I also picked up ex-Met Tim Folis but to find a Tom Seaver or a Buddy Harrelson or a Jon Matlack is like searching for water in a desert. Four cards gone in the last pack and no Mets. Eight cards gone and no Mets. But on the ninth card, the 39th of the 40 I ( the bull - Despite these generous offers, it still remains doubtful that any of these sports will be maintained as varsity sports. Student Athletic the savings Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia feels that even with to field available enough money still is not on coaching salaries, there competitive teams in the three sports. But Gantz and Babus are trying to disprove that theory. Gantz explained. “I would in no way attempt to make an offer that would deny a coach’s salary. However, he was quick to add, “1 would hate to see college runners not have a chance to run competitively because of a lack of funds.” Plenty of know-how Both volunteers are experienced enough to serve as coaches if necessary. Babus and Gantz have been fencing and running respectively for many years, and each has some coaching experience. Gantz looks forward to the chance to coach. "The desire to coach has been a goal of mine for many years," he said. it is strictly finances that stand in the way of Gantz and Babus: There is still time for SA to alter the passed athletic budget if a feasible means for funding any or all of the llu** sports surfaces, Gantz believes that SA funds can be complemented by funds raised by the athletes, and that in some cases, athletes could be persuaded to buy their own equipment. But in the end, the costs of transportation and other necessities which cannot be paid by individuals will still have to be found in the SA budget, and right now, it is questionable whether the search will be successful. realized. Baseball cards are extremely informative. Although they are only and three-eighths two by four and three-eighths inches, you can learn an awful lot from them. For instance, take this year’s car No. 59. On the front is Larry Hisle posing in a batting stance in front of some first base dugout. Besides the snapshot, the front of the card also tells that Hisle plays for the Minnesota Twins and that he is an outfielder. Turn the card over, and a wealth of statistical information is tiiere for the taking. Where else but on a baseball card could you check up on Larry Hisle’s batting average in 1970 (.205) or his home run production in 1974 hometown or his (19) Lou Hartford, Connecticut under the assumed name of Lou Lewis in 1921. And on the back of Ellie Rodriguez’s card, we learn that Rodriguez tied the American League mark with 19 putouts behind the plate in August of 1974, and that he also caught Nolan Ryan’s fourth career no-hitter on June 1, 1975. any course, Of like baseball card self-respecting person, I never buy more than just publicizes the fact played Gehrig in that few packs, but increase my holdings by “flipping,” a process by which talented people win cards from untalented people. But a somehow. I’ve never heard anyone say that they ever lost any cards flipping, which leads me to the ( conclusion that all those kids who flipped and lost must have been struck dead by four balls. In any case, armed with photos of Sugar Bear Blanks, Dave Lemanczyk (who by the way is not . from Buffalo, but from Syracuse), and Dennis Eckersley, I (Portsmouth, Ohio)? am now ready for the baseball Additional tidbits are also season to begin.

A similar offer for been made by assistant fencing coach Bela Babus. bought, a gem was uncovered. The New York Mets team card was mine. From Jesus Alou (who has already been released by the Mets) down to Hank Webb, with a special insert of rookie coach Joe Frazier. My fondest dreams were Assistant Sports Editor When the Big Four Conference was formed last spring, incorporating Buffalo, Canisius, Niagara and Buffalo State into one league, one of its goals was to increase interest in intercollegiate athletics in the area. However, as the Big Four heads into the final third of its inaugural year, about as many people seem interested in the new Conference as in a table of natural logarithms. Around Clark Hall, no one was terribly excited about any of the Big Four matches. In basketball, which was supposedly the Big Four’s premier sport, Buffalo coach Leo Richardson viewed the then-upcoming game against Buffalo State as just another ballgame, even though the outcome of that game would decide the conference winner. Many of the Buffalo swimmers felt that the Big Four championship was merely a warm-up for the Upper New York State Championships. There was no visible increase in attendance for Big Four matches, nor was there an increase in coverage by the local press. The Big Four’s largest crowd was 5200 at the second basketball doubleheader at the Niagara Falls Convention Center, but only about 1500 showed up for the first Big Four basketball doubleheader featuring Buffalo against Canisius at the Memorial Auditorium, which year’s the crowd at last was less than Buffalo-Canisius game. At the Big Four women’s tennis championship, which was the closest and most exciting of the Big Four tournaments so far. there were, at most, four spectators and one reporter. It also doesn’t help that two of Buffalo’s more popular sports, hockey and wrestling, are not included in the Big Four because none of thd other three schools field varsity teams in those sports. Some of the schools do field club teams in hockey and they are immensely popular with the students. Canisius and Niagara also have very popular club football teams, but Buffalo does not even have a football team. One easy way to increase interest might be to declare an overall champion, based on all sports, at the end of each school year. This was one of the possibilities mentioned when the Big Four was formed, but so far, no system of determining a winner has been picked. If four points were awarded for the first place finish in a particular sport, three points for second, and so on, an overall champion could be determined. Using that system, right now Buffalo leads with 27 points, but Buffalo State has 26, so this spring’s baseball, track and field championships would decide the grand winner.

More American homes are without indoor plumbing or refrigerators than are without tv.” These observations were made Frank Monday night by Mankiewicz, author and social commentator, to a large audience in the Fillmore Room. Mankiewicz was Press secretary for the late Senator Robert Kennedy from 1966 to 1968 and in 1972, he directed Senator McGovern’s campaign for the regularly be no discussion of fee.

He is currently working on a book about the affects of tv on our society and in running Congress for Frank Mankiewicz Montgomery County, Maryland. “People, by the time they reach your age will watch an average of 20,000 hours of tv,” ihstnace, he said, Danny Thomas, Mankiewicz told his college age who plays a family doctor in a audience. “People bom now, if new show, took thte role to they live to be 65 years old, will inspirt a new generation of watch nine years of tv.

Within 52 minutes the problem is solved, usually with violence. These problems usually involve parties of influence in our society doctors, lawyers, and police, he — said. Programming involving doctors a usually specified follow sequence of events, according to Mankiewicz. The doctor will of care you need and can afford. Mankiewicz stated that the Surgeon General has determined that the malpractice problem in this country is due in part to the Welby syndrome.” “Marcus People feel their own doctors should treat them in the sgme way Doctor Welby treats his patients on tv, he explained. The tv lawyer will take the difficult case and always win, Mankiewicz said. The lawyer has no other clients, he works all day in court and then at night, flics to another city to bring in a surprise witness to save his client. The policeman becomes the villian, pictured usually overweight, and brutal. Dull life Mankiewicz, unjust, himself an attoumey, said tv lawyers do not lead the “dull momocromatic life” of most lawyers. In real life, lawyers are overworked and can ot spend most of their time on one case, but jurors tend to compare them to the “tv lawyer.” “On a police show, the police iffecti' thr enormous amount of time, usually an entire squad, and within 52 minutes, they solve the crime” Maniewicz said. The lawyers on police shows are usually men with silver hair, moustaches, and often conspire with the criminal. are normally Police and underpaid, “overworked, harrassed," said Mankiewicz. He cited a report issued by the Rand Corporation which concluded that techniques, like police fingerprinting and lineups, are usually mostly for public relations purposes. The victim or the victim’s family expect it because that is what they see every night on tv from 8 to 11 p.m., Mankiewicz added. Ability counts “Commercials are a fascinating part of tv, there is more racial integration in commercials than there is in real life,” said Mankiewicz. Tv has shown the children of our society on all levels in which skin color does not matter but ability does. “What tv is interested in is developing maximum size audiences . .. producers will chose exciting and violent news in order to attract viewers,” Mankiewicz said. He cited the busing riots in Boston as an example. In cities like Denver, however, where court has busing been ordered successful, it fe not reported on nightly news programs. “Conflict resolution on tv is guns, almost always violent fists, knives, or psychic violence” siad Mankiewicz. “Children by the time they are 15 years old will see 11,000 killings in their living — de*' Protests continue over cuts by Brett Kline Feature Editor Student action across the state continued over the weekend and early this week in response to cutbacks in the state and 40 university budgets. Over students attended a meeting in Binghamton this past weekend, including representatives from Purchase, New Paltz, Oswego, Erie Brockport, Binghamton, Community College, Buffalo State College, and SUNY at Buffalo. A set of common demands, similar to those of the Coalition here, were agreed upon at the meeting, but there was little discussion of common actions. Most of those present felt that students were too involved in protest activities on their own campuses. Scott Breen, representing this University at the meeting, stated, “It was a step in the right direction, toward a statewide Coalition, the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU), and the Black Student Union (BSU) called for total student support of the strike, now planned for April 6. “We will be showing our strength to everyone across the state,” said one Coalition speaker. “Ketter has shown us whose side he’s on. Now it’s time for action,” she continued. Another coalition speaker cited budget statistics, which indicate that with the increase in tuition and dorm rates, students will pay for half of the $53 million in cuts, the other half coming from the slash of certain programs and departments. The GSEU speaker commented while the departments of that Management, Engineering and Health Sciences are getting more money and faculty, Social Sciences and Humanities are being cut. He encouraged all undergraduates to support the conference.” The Universities of graduate student strike, now set Binghamton and Buffalo are, in for April 7, by not crossing the fact, sponsoring a statewide picket lines. “The BSU supports the conference on cutbacks the Coalition and the strike ]00 weekend of April 9. percent,” said Abdul Wahaab, BSU representative. He urged all Strike call at rally At a'rally in Haas Lounge on minority students to strike, Monday, attended by about 200 remarking that they will be people, speakers from the effected most by the cutbacks. Coalition speakers called for all students and faculty to attend the rally today in Norton Hall and the subsequent march to Hayes Hall, where petitions calling for a halt to the cutbacks will be presented to the administration. One speaker also mentioned student the support for statewide Teamsters strike today. Bradley Angel, a Coalition leader, was “satisfied” with the turnout in Haas Lounge on Monday, “considering the minimum amount of publicity.” Morrie Fox, another spokesman, commented, “The turnout was good, but there should have been more people here today. Some people don’t seem to care about their own lives and by not doing anything, they are aiding and abetting the administration of the cutbacks.” Other schools act Students at SUNY-Binghamton went on strike Monday. As The Spectrum went to press, they were planning to extend the strike for an indefinite length of time. The strike was estimated by Coalition and SA representatives to be 70 percent effective, with, in some cases, teachers and civil servants honoring the students’ efforts. Pickets were maintained in two-hour shifts and teach-ins held workshops were throughout the day. Buffalo State College students had a rally on Monday night, calling for a strike on Thursday, but details were not available in time for publication of today’s The Spectrum. The Coalition at Purchase has and called for a statewide moratorium on April 28, so that students may attend Legislative sessions in Albany. They student support the by strike also called for a possible Civil Service of Association (CSEA).

It operates a ham radio from Norton Hall capable of worldwide transmission. The Student Association (SA) supported club belongs to the American Radio Relay League, an organization that consists of amateur ham radio operators throughout the country. The organization enables these radio operators to send messages, or “traffic,” to all parts of the world. The club is housed in Room 324 Norton. To send a message, one simply writes down the message with the name, address and phone number of the recipient, also including the return address. If no one is in, it is possible to slip the message under the door with all the information requested on the door of the room on it. There are even codes for certain messages. All messages should be kept under thirty-five words. Although it cannot be determined when the message will arrive, it will eventually reach its destination by telephone or mail. FCC licenses The message is sent by a web of amateur radio operators. One of the operators becomes “net control” for a section of the country . (The country has three sections, served by the East Coast Amateur Radio Service (ECARS), MIDCARS and WCARS.) He keeps a log-of all operators who call in and then coordinates them so that traffic will properly reach its desired destination. of the club’s fifty-four members have Federal Communication Commission (FCC) licenses, which is necessary to be able to send traffic. The unlicensed members can only hang out at the club. Obtaining a novice license requires passing a twenty-question written exam and being able to read Morse Code at five words per minute. A novice gets his own call letters and can transmit by,Morse Code only. In order to speak on a ham radio, it is necessary to pass another FCC test which includes reading thirteen words per minute of morse code. Armand Canestraro, a club member, says the club and its members “are there to help students and to be a public service.” Tyo examples best show how they do this. A SUNY at Buffalo student wants to talk to his parents in Bogota, Columbia, but doesn’t want to pay an expensive phone bill. His parents mail him the call letters of a local ham operator along with a time and a frequency. The student then notifies the club of the time so that a capable licensed member will be there. He goes to the club and the two ham operators make contact. The South American operator then phones the parents and plugs the phone into the radio. The student and his parents speak to each other for free. The only catch is that the two operators’ countries must have a “third party agreement” or else no messages can be conveyed by the ham Forty Teach-in on campus issues “Teach-ins” on the SUNY fiscal crisis arid campus-oriented issues like student services and student participation in Parcel B will be held Tuesday through Friday during the undergraduate strike referendum. Events co-sponsored by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks and the Student Association (SA) include a Budget Symposium (held yesterday), a ciscussion of student services and Parcel B today, a workshop on the recent report of the President’s Acdtlemic Planning (PCAP) Committee on tomorrow, and a forum featuring area legislators Friday. The purpose of the Budget symposiuih is to bring students into contact with people who can explain where cuts will be made and how the budget is prepared, according to SA. “We are currently inviting people to attend the symposium, but have not received any definite responses as of yet,” said President Steven Schwartz. “Impartial” position The debate on whether to strike will be held over a two-day period “to allow all students to hear both sides of the issue and provide them with sufficient information for making their own decisions,” according to Schwartz. Speakers from all branches of the University community will be featured. Schwartz asserted that SA is taking an “impartial” position on the issue of the strike. “We do not have the right to dictate how students will vote in this referendum,” he declared. Deriding last year’s successful campaign by SA to have students vote to retain the mandatory fee, he reaffirmed his position that students should have more control of their educational experience. Highlighting the week’s activities will be the forum with members of the State Legislature. None have committed themselves to attending yet, but responses are expected shortly. “We expect to meet with these people prior to the forum on Friday in order to brief them, to the specific issues at hand, and lobby for support of student demands,” an SA spokesperson said. Schwartz claimed that the sole place students can Steve Schwartz look to for the repeal of the tuition and rent increases is the State Legislature, and thus, it is important to establish communication and set up such forums. Coalition’s events Workshops, rallies, and forums are also scheduled by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks. A rally called for Wednesday will be followed by a talk by Victor Perlo on “Economic Crisis and Education Cuts.” The Coalition will-coordinate a series of workshops Thursday where traditional academic units and programs, as well as the Colleges, minority groups and service organizations, will meet to discuss their special problems in facing the budget cutbacks. Also included in the SA-sponsored events will be a debate on the PCAP interim report. ,“We are having some difficulty with the Committee because they have a policy of not discussing the report in debates or forums,” remarked Schwartz. Scheduled for Wednesday is a forum on student services and moves to place student representatives on the Board of Directors of Parcel B, the planned commercial development on the Amherst campus. ' Ham radio makes for an interesting hobby Fighting apathy operators. Disaster help The second example hits closer to home. During the recent earthquake in Guatamala, most phone and power lines were destroyed. Ham tadio operators provided the vital service pf communication. Their radios can be run on batteries or from a generator. Club member Lonnie Keller handled incoming calls from people in Guatamala to friends and relatives in the Erie County area. Canestraro notes, “The radio served as a link from an area in which normal communications were knocked out to an area where communication was available,” Ironically, Keller had to notify the concerned people by using a pay phone booth because SA had removed the club’s phone. SA owns all the equipment of the club, which includes a thirty-five foot tower and a four-element antennae on top of Norton. The club, which is open to anyone interested in ham radio, has a budget of approximately $600, according to Canestraro. Everyone is welcome to join.

Wednesday, 31 March 1976 . AGENDA: There must be a representative from each SA recognized organization, except the academic clubs, at this meeting �Outstanding talent to be appearing at folk festival So you’re down with spring examinitis, or terminal boredom? Well, there’s no surer cure for those Buffalo blues than some good home-grown music. And you’ll find some of the very best of it at the Buffalo Mini-Folk Festival this weekend (Friday night, all day Saturday, and Sunday afternoon) in Norton. Hall. What makes the Festival “mini”? Not the schedule: there’ll in the be evening concerts Fillmore Room on Friday and Saturday nights, workshops and a crafts fair all day Saturday, and a free square dance on Sunday fever, - Toronto’s Owen McBride will be there too, with his rousing renditions of traditional British ballads and sea songs; it’s his first stop in Buffalo in four years (and high time). Bill Staines, an old UUAB Coffeehouse favorite, will be providing his patented mix of guitar picking, left-hand breathtaking yodeling, and his own fine songs (his “Bless My Soul” is a particular favorite of mine). Friday night also provides a meeting place for two confusingly instrumental named virtuosos: Bowers, one of the half-dozen people on earth who can really play that push-button zither called the autoharp, and Brian Bauer, slurping out zany blues, swing, and Dixieland jazz with Dr. Jazz and the Ukelele Ladies. Rounding out Friday night’s program is Buffalo’s (and own the ‘University’s) award-winning bluegrass band, Billy Hamilton and Bluegrass Bryan Almanac. Michael Cooney afternoon to wind things up. A full slate, I’d say. The talent is hardly “mini,” either. Take Michael Cooney, who heads up the Friday night concert, Veteran of every folk festival worthy of the name; singer of every kind of traditional and folksong; of player impeccable banjo, 6-and-12-string guitar, concertina, and harmonica; great storyteller; a constant reminder that folk music belongs to all of contemporary us. Also appearing on Friday: Leon Redbone, the mystery man who was a folk legend even before Dylan said he’d want Redbone if he had a label. His lazy, sour-mash versions of old blues, country and jazz tunes from the ’20’s and 30’s simply have to be heard for themselves. Gras ’n Bloom On Saturday night, Michael Cooney and Owen McBride make return appearances. In addition, you’ll be seeing the Good Ol* Boys, high-octane anbthcr bluegrass amalgamation whose energy source is Frank Wakefield, the former Greenbriar Boy who’s one of our very best ’grass mandolinists. Ken Bloom has his own set of flying fingers, and he uses them on an equally amazing assortment of instruments: guitar, electric zither, and Ukranian 48-string guitar! (I’ve heard him play fiddle tunes on the last-named, and it’s something to see.) Traditional, contemporary, and original songs are his stock-in-trade. Dcbby McClatchy has been building a reputation for a while as a fine writer of country-flavored songs (her tune “Best of Friends” has especially been getting around) and singer of music of the British Isles; the Festival’s her first visit to Buffalo. Formerly of the Wildflowers musicians co-op (Utah Phillips was also a member), Bob White will be playing a wide range of music from Jimmie Rodgers and Woody Guthrie to contemporary and children’s songs. (According to Rosalie Sorrells, he shoots quite a game of pool, too .,.) To fill out the evening with some good-time sounds, Dr. Amazing Breathing Zarcon’s Machine will be ragging on out old-fashioned, their with new-fangled blues, country and jug band sounds. Both concerts begin at 8 p.m. each night in Norton’s Fillmore Room. Tickets are $2.50 per night in advance, $3 on the night of the concert; get them at the Norton and Buff State ticket offices. Everybody’s a star Just as the concerts will be mixing some fairly big names with lesser known but equally fine performers, Saturday afternoon gives you a chance to see a number of local musicians who cover a variety of styles, in addition to the “major” talent. Haas Lounge will be the scene of a free “local performers’” concert from noon until 5 p.m., with Ed O’Reilly, Joanie Schwartz, the Boot Hill Boys, Khatmandu, Bill Edwards, Linda Namias, John Simson, Becky Mitchell, and more more more. The workshops on Saturday afternoon are where you can find out more about the instruments, styles, and kinds of songs you like the most. There’ll be workshops on kids’ songs, women’s songs, and banjo, autoharp fiddle, dulcimer, songwriting, and other topics of interest (take my word for it). They’ll also be going from noon until 5 p.m. Music isn’t all that we can make for ourselves, of course. A crafts 'fair in Norton’s Center Lounge will feature many fine local craftspeople displaying work in a variety of media; it’s also set for Saturday afternoon. If rushing from concert to workshop to crafts show hasn’t worn you out by Sunday, spend Leon Redbone remaining energies square dancing. There’ll be a free dance, your with the Blackthorn Ceilidh Band providing the afternoon at 2 music, p.m. Sunday in the Fillmore Room. Hopefully, there’s now available a schedule of exactly what’s happening where through the whole Festival, with more info on the performers as well. Check the Norton Information Desk or the UUAB office (261 Norton); if it’s not there, sit tight, they’ll be ready soon. The people to thank for the Buffalo Mini-Folk Festival are the UUAB Coffeehouse Committee, Music Committee and Video Committee. - Debbie McClatchy Bill Maraschiello Positions in the Peace Corp difficult to secure by Anthony Schmitz Special to The Spectrum Finding work with the Peace Corps has become even tougher than cracking the gloomy domestic job market for liberal arts graduates. The volunteer agency has been flooded with applicants eager to join a staff that has shrunk steadily since the Peace Corps heyday in 1966. Nearly 29,000 applications came piling into Peace Corps offices last year from persons looking for jobs in one of the 68 countries receiving volunteers. Administrators were left with the job of throwing out more than 80 percent of them to round out the 6,400-member staffAlthough requests from developing nations for volunteers has risen, funding for the agency has not. The Peace Corps’ budget has shrunk from a peak of $114 million in 1966 to $81 million in the 1976 fiscal year. Under pressure to tighten its belt even further, the Corps is expecting $67 million next year. Along with the budget, the number of volunteers put to work has shrunk since the salad days under President Johnson’s Great Society. While 15,000 volunteers filled the ranks in 1966, that number has dropped by about 60 percent over the past ten years. Would-be volunteers armed with bachelors degrees can expect a hard time cracking the agency. Even though the subsistence living allowance and native housing doesn’t and seem glamourous, the Peace Corps is asking for Oman, and one woman dropped out after she heard that liquor and sex weren’t readily available,” the volunteer said. — technicians and skilled laborers to fill the limited number of positions open. While a BA graduate with knowledge of French might still be able to find a job with the Peace Corps, the agency has been shying away from unskilled workers in recent years. Architects, nurses, municipal plahners and persons with agricultural skills have a chance of finding jobs, while history and English majors are usually left to take their chances on the American marketplace. In spite of extensive screening, about 15 percent of the Peace Corps staff drop out before finishing their hitches. Like Scharnhorst, who decided that “I don’t regret going into the Peace Corps and 1 don’t regret coming back either,” they leave for reasons ranging from physical hardships to the lack of liquor and sex. A volunteer recently returned from Oman said that although her “group was a good one, three people never showed up in Philadelphia,” where the group departed from. “One man dropped out a week after we were in getting — Dissatisfied hosts Of 12 Peace Corps volunteers who went to Oman in 1974, six were left at the end of their scheduled stay, according to the former volunteer who didn’t wish to be identified. Rumors have it that the Omani government has been displeased with the staying power of the last group of volunteers and the success of the next group will “be an important factor in whether or not the Omani government continues to request volunteers,” the former staff member , said. George Wakiji, a press officer in Washington, said that although the Corps recognizes the attrition problem, in many cases it might be understandable. After a recent survey of Peace Corps projects in Guatemala following the earthquake, Wakiji said he found volunteers working in conditions “that 1 don’t know if 1 could have put up with.” But with 29,000 applications and a tough domestic job market, there shouldn’t be much trouble finding replacements. Wednesday, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . �Private carriers Congress eyeing end to the U.S. Postal Service monopoly — competitors. Sen. James L. Buckley (Con., N.Y.) recently introduced a bill in Congress which would allow private carriers to try for the United States Postal Service market. The Buckley bill would remove all restrictions on private carriers including the prohibition against anyone but the Postal Service using mail boxes for deliveries. Twilight zone The use of private carriers to avoid paying the recent 30 percent rate increase for first class mail has already begun even though Postal Service attorneys say these businesses operate in a legal twilight zone. In providence, R.I., the electric company hand-delivers bills to 60,000 of its customers. The employees who deliver them are former electric company workers who would have been laid off. Other people are beating the rising cost of postage by paying as many bills as possible in person and carrying their own business mail to close offices. So many people have boycotted the new rates that volume in January was down 4.6 percent from the same period a year earlier. And more and more packages, a major source of income for the Postal Service, are finding their way into United Parcel Service and other bulk carriers’ trucks. The Postal Service’s bulk mailing operation has turned into a financial catastrophe but the situation is past the point of no retun. The United States has already spent more than $1 billion on the 21 new bulk mail centers around the country. Former Postmaster General Winton Blount’s construction firm wound Israeli rock musical The Jewish Student Theatre Guild has not yet become a force to be reckoned with on this campus but after tonight, all that will change as the undergraduate group presents the Israeli rock musical To Live Another Summer (To Pass Another Winter). Produced by the Jewish Student Union, the musical will be performed tonight, tomorrow-, and Saturday in the Katherine Cornell Theatre of the Amherst Campus’ Ellicott Complex. Two more performances are scheduled for April 10 and II at the Jewish Community Center’s Delaware Building, 787 Delaware Avenue. According to Director Selwyn Falk, a JSU member who has studied at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City as well as performing off Broadway and in Buffalo dinner theatres, the group’s main objective is “to bring Jewish theatre to life in Buffalo.” To Live Another Summer is only the first production of a repertoire which is expected eventually to include translated versions of the best in Yiddish and Israeli theatre, produced at the rate of one new show per semester. Tickets for the Cornell Theatre dates are available at the Norton Ticket Office.

What it has come to mean is that packages must travel thousands of miles out of their way just to be processed. Since the bulk mail centers have been in operation, millions of packages have been lost or damaged by the elaborate machines the Postal Service uses. In one sorting process, packages are dumped automatically into a huge trough some 10 to 12 feet away. If a light package is on the bottom, the contents frequently break or the box splits open. Many times the addressed wrapping comes off and then the post office tries to find a clue to the package’s destination. Often they don’t. A second major financial problem of the Postal Service is that their employees’ wages have risen 50 percent faster than the cost of living in the past six years and the Postal Service is not allowed to lay employees off simply because they are being used less. After the 1970 postal worker strike, the two big postal worker unions demanded wages more in line with priVate industry than with civil service positions. So mail workers in positions which were considered GS 5 level in 1970 are now making $12,149 a year to their civil service counterparts who are making only $9,819 annually. To afford to pay their workers, including their brass who make more than most top figures in Washington including senators and congresspeople, the Postal Service has increasingly depended on subsidies from Congress. Sen. Buckley says if the Postal Service is stuck with all the expensive routes that none of the private carriers would find profitable enough, then the government would give direct subsidies to those areas. Repeal of the Postal Service monopoly laws would ‘‘let the forces of competition provide this country with the kind of efficient mail service it needs and deserves,” Buckley claimed.

Susan Hanson, an assistant professor in the Gcorgraphy Department, agrees. She said many people within the departments by Diane Gitlin Affirmative Action program af think that the Affirmative Action office is “one big pain in the ass, because it requires an extensive amount of documentation and vast quantities of forms.

Black Student Union Executive Board member Abdullah Wahaab charges that administration insincerity is responsible for crippling the effectiveness of the Affirmative Action program. Based on his own experience with Affirmative Action and Human Resources Development office (AA/HRD) personnel, specifically Director of Minority Student Affairs Roosevelt Rhodes, Wahaab said he has “total confidence in the Affirmative Action program and the AA/HRD personnel, but they are only as effective as the administration will accept their recommendations and work.” Increasing public awareness But unuke Wahaab, Hanson feels that the administration is sensitive to the issue of equal opportunity. Now, more than ever, she said, the administration wants to avoid being tabled as discriminatory, due to an increasing public awareness of unequal Wahaab claims the administration doesn’t, recognize or respect the suggestions of members of the Affirmative Action program. For example, rcco mmendations submitted by the Black Student Union and Rhodes of qualified candidates for the position of permanent director of the Black Studies program have been rejected by University President Robert Ketter. opportunity. Disinterested Wahaab said that it was not the administration’s concern for equality which led them to establish an Affirmative Action office and minority programs. It was only to comply with federal guidelines and appease existing tensions. However, he maintains that the administration isn’t interested in expanding minority opportunities on this campus. He cited efforts to phase out the Black Studies program and prevent reinstatement of Molefi K. Asante as acting director against the wishes of many students and , members. The administration faculty hasn’t taken a strong stand of support for the continuance and improvement of programs aimed at assisting minorities, he also said. Wahaab was not totally critical of the Affirmative Action program, however,, both he and Rhodes are working on a tutoring service, already approved by the y Black Medical Association, that would be available for entering minority medical students during the summer.

The Student Senate felt that some form of action should be taken in response to the following budgetary decisions: ' (A) the mandate of both a twenty-four million ($24,000,000.00) dollar increase in income generated by the State University of New York (SUNY), and a twenty-seven million ($27,000,000.00) dollar decrease in state appropriations for SUNY in Governor Hugh Careys 1976-77 Executive Budget, (B) the State Legislature’s* passage of a budget which mandates the elimination of 143 positions at SUNY at Buffalo (SUNYAB), and (C) the SUNY Board of Trustees action to comply with this mandate by voting unanimously, without debate or discussion, to raise tuition fees and dormitory rent for the 1976-77 academic year. These decisions were in direct conflict with Governor Carey s statement in 1974 that “the State, not the students, must bear the costs of higher education” and the premise that higher education in the State of New York is a right, not a privilege, which should be open to all, not just those few that can afford to pay for it.

(CPS) Abe Lincoln, all six feet four inches of him, can wiggle and squirm 62 different ways but Dick Nixon just stands there and frowns. The scene is Disney World’s Hall of the Presidents, where, according to The New York Times, 20,000 people traipse through the colonial style theater each day, with 20 million having seen it since the Florida amusement park opened four years - ago. What they see is a 23-minute show starring 38 electronically-controlled and computer-operated robots, each representing one of the nation’s presidents. They are “illustrious men,” a voice of the human persuasion intones, “whose names have been indelibly inscribed on history’s role of honor.” Lincoln, -who gives snippets of several famous speeches, is the only presidential robot programmed to speak. Nixon stands immovable, which sometimes moves the crowd to snickers. Gerald Ford’s bionic double simply nods his head. After the show, doors open and the crowd proceeds through a curio shop where they may buy Lyndon Johnson creamers, JFK busts or Richard Nixon glazed tiles.

The heroin “epidemic,” said Dr. Robert L. DuPont, director of the National Institute on Drug Abuse, is spreading from the east coast metropolitan areas into small cities and towns across the country. “Heroin has become a national phenomenon,” said DuPont, noting that blacks and whites now use it equally. In addition, he said, the number of female heroin addicts is rapidly approaching the number of male addicts. There are currently an estimated 300,000 to 400,000 daily heroin users in the United States. The peak of heroin use was in 1971, when there were between 500,000 and 600,000 daily users. In 1972-73, the number of addicts dropped to 200,000 to 300,000. The decline was due to Turkey’s ban on the growth of opium poppies, and a growing number of drug treatment centers. But now most of the heroin comes from Mexico, and the number of treatment programs has leveled off. DuPont anticipates no reduction in the currently climbing rate of heroin use. Lower tuition puts pres behind sink (CPS) At private schools where tuition has soared during the past decade, new plans of action for reducing costs to students have been devised by thrifty administrators. At Franconia College in New Hampshire, cutting tuition almost $700 a year has put the college’s president and its dean of students in the dining hall washing dishes while students try their hands at cooking, running the bookstore, keeping the school’s books and recruiting next year’s freshman class. The changes are all part of a radical reorganization which has cut the administrative staff by 40 percent. The idea, according to' Franconia president Ira Goldenberg is to attract students of more modest means (although tuition is still $4,985 a year) and help the college break even financially — next year Wednesdy, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Guest Opinion EditPrwl teaching.

We urge all undergraduates here to vote YES on the strike. papers which indicate that some day one The demands being made by the Graduate Employee’s Union (GSEU) are Student important demands. 1 address myself, however, not to those demands, but to the very fact that a number of graduate students feel large unionisation is the way to. articulate them. (I am Though not a GSEU member myself I currently employed outside the University) support unionization. I don’t claim to offer an unbiased analysis here; but I believe the analysis is plausible. GSEU members are trying to be responsible adults in an institutional context which forces them to be adolescents. By “adolescent” I mean a person whose social importance is linked to what he/she will be doing at some future time for which his/her present activity is but a preparation. A college senior becomes a graduate student because his work indicates that, with proper training he will be capable of doing work of importance to the academic community (few first and second-year graduate students are immediately capable of doing work worthy of one of the publication in professional journals activities expected of an adult in the academic community). Hence the graduate student is an adolescent in training to occupy an adult role. But teaching is not an adolescent activity. Whether supervised or not, teaching is an adult activity. The activities of a graduate student who is teaching are of immediate consequence to the students being taught; the teacher is responsible for and to his students. The teaching activities of a graduate student are not, in some pecular way, unreal in comparison to the teaching activities of those who hold doctorates. The same is true of the activities of students who are doing research. Research activity; whether in the library or the laboratory, is immediately important to the academic community. an considerations hold for Similar undergraduate.- The student who writes a paper for his composition teacher is learning to write. That composition is important only to the student and his teacher (and perhaps some classmates). Writing an article for The Spectrum, for Ethos, or for any other publication, is quite different. The author of such an article is accountable to the readers of the publication, to those written about, and to those responsible for running the publication. Weak arguments and factual errors elicit angry letters to the editor; work well done garners praise. The student who takes a course in juvenile delinquency in which he must work with a juvenile delinquent is engaged in an activity whose immediate consequences extend beyond whether or not she gets a good grade. That is very different from a course in which one only reads theories about - — As quality education in New York State has steadily eroded over the past several years (and that erosion has accelerated during this past year), students are being told to pay more and receive less. The hiring freeze imposed by the state has ensured that class sizes will increase, that teaching loads will be heavier, that already marginal services would be cut back, and that the attention afforded each student by their instructors will be diminished. Budget cuts have vicious infighting over achieved their predictable result who gets the remaining crumbs. Coming at this time, the recent Interim Academic Planning Report served to fan the flames, as it urged program eliminations and increases. — The right to a quality education is a non-negotiable one in any civilized nation, and if this right is threatened (as it is now), then there is no alternative but strong action. Our society continues to insist upon a college degree to get any sort of decent job. Yet, by conscious design of our state government, we are being forced away from public higher education toward private colleges that charge $5000 a year and up for undergraduate studies. It is a myth that we have all been taking too much lately and that we must retrench now a myth which consciously aids the corporate interests that have always run this state. — Plans for a SUNY-wide strike early in April are now being formulated. It is the responsibility of this school, both as the largest SUNY unit and as the one most heavily affected by cutbacks, to take the leadership in bringing the state back to reality. The Graduate Student Employees Union here is currently voting on whether to strike starting Monday. If their strike vote should succeed, we would hope that undergraduates would honor the GSEU picket lines and support them in their efforts. It should be noted that the United University Professionals (UUP) which represents regular faculty has pledged at least moral support to GSEU's efforts, and that delivery personnel represented by the Teamsters Union probably will not cross the picket lines. Common sense, political pressure, and intense lobbying have not yet convinced the State Legislature that public higher education is a right and not a privilege. Perhaps a strike that would shut down the entire SUNY system until the Governor and the legislators wake up would bring them out of their slumber. Lesser remedies have failed, and a strike is all that's left. , — delinquency. Cultivated adolescence It is perhaps not unreasonable to ask someone in his late teens to devote a good deal of energy to the adolescent role of student (though I think most colleges and universities, including this one, demand too much adolescence of their students); but it is unreasonable to expect someone in his middle twenties to be content with an adolescent role. Giving graduate students the adult responsibilities of teaching and research without giving them recognition as adult i.e., recognizing them as members of society employees is a cheap trick. In our society adults are paid for services rendered. People who render services without being paid in return are either saints, fools, independently wealthy, or slaves. The graduate students who render service to the academic community are also the graduate students on the ,present situation that fellowship.

One is not rewarded for teaching. You might well object that as long as the money comes in it makes no difference why it’s coming in. I believe it does in fact make a great deal of difference to one’s self esteem, though discerning that difference is not easy, The present funding mechanism implicitly i asks the recipient of a fellowship to view his situation in the following way: We are honoring you with this money because we think you have the potential to, become an adult member of the academic community if you train under us for several years. Incidentally, you’ll have to teach or do some research. In this situation the student is likely to view teaching as a burden, especially if he thinks he is being asked to teach certain courses because faculty don’t want to be bothered with them. Teach he must; but studying for that future time when he will be a real academic, with a degree and a list of publications, is more important. What the graduate student may not know is that many of his professors view their situation in their present academic rank as just a preparation for their real academic life, which will begin when the next rank in the ladder, from assistant to associate to full professor, is attained. By the time a person has gotten the degree and obtained an academic, job he is so used to thinking of his present activity as being unimportant in itself, as being preparation for some future, that he often continues in that rut, even though he is now living the situation, which was, five years ago when he was a graduate student, the future goal toward which he was working. And there is no happiness in that rut. Where the student is seen as an employee who is being paid for performing teaching or research duties he implicitly views his situation this way: Not only have I done well enough to be accepted for further study, I have also done well enough to be given the responsibility of imparting some of my knowledge to others. I am now a productive member of society; I am valued for what I am doing now, not for what I may do in the future. *7 ■ I find this to be a much more dignified self-image. And it is less likely to produce a breed of intellectuals who are emotionally committed to some mythical future accomplishment instead of deriving satisfaction from their present activities (especially teaching). After all, the only lasting satisfactions afforded by intellectual activity are those obtained from transmitting one’s knowledge to others. One teaches one’s students and one teaches one’s colleagues. The two situations differ only in that one’s colleagues need less help in learning what one has to say. So I think the difference between being a student, who also l\as to teach so his fellowship can. be justified to the money-givers, and a part-time teacher who spends much of his time learning experienced from more and knowledgeable teachers, is the difference between a life centered on the future and a life centered on .the present. Adolescence is good in its time, but that time is over when one moves into the middle twenties. A union is an organization of adults whose purpose is to ensure that employers honor their obligations to employees and to ensure that employees are treated as autonomous adults rather than as wards of a company or stats, benevolently provided for because they cannot provide for themselves. If I am being paid to attend classes, then I am being supported. If 1 am paid for teaching a class, or for doing research, then I am paying my own way. 1 am then a self-supporting adult. The Graduate Student Employees Union is an attempt to show the difference between being a self-supporting adult - and an over-age adolescent. — Business Manager Arts Backpage — Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Renita Campus . .

Page nine �: New bank for colonists formed for service by Mike McGuire Town Crier Lord Commissioner William Sherman Knocks has announced the Formation of a new Banke to serve the Needs of the good Tory citizens of Buffalo. Calling itself “A Reactionary Bank for Happy Colonists,” the new Banke occupies a three story Building, the tallest in Buffalo, that has completely blocked traffic on Main Street for three years now. The Banke already approached Little Red School House (LRSH) Headmaster Methuselah Katter to serve on its Board of Commissioners, and concurrently offered him a Good Deal on some land for the Amherst Schoolhouse. In its first official act, the new Banke has made a $12,000 pound Loane to troubled New York City (formerly New Amsterdam) to ease it out of financial Troubles caused by the Dutch leaving with the city’s Till. Interest on the Loane is 28V4 percent, which the Lord Mayor of New York says will be repaid out of subsidies from the Colonial Office next year. Exotic menu American style Years Ago by Phil Samuels Banke bunk The Banke’s directors have announced a Benevolent new Policy that they feel will set them apart from other Bankes and win for them the Hearts and Minds of Buffalo residents. Whenever the Banke shall repossess a Hou$e from a Widow, it shall now pay for the next year’s Schooling for her children, if they are of proper age, out of the receipts from the Sale. School House branch manager Judas P. Ritch warned Prospective bank robbers, as well as other Terrorists and Highwaymen, that his Banke will not remain a Sitting Duck for their Antics. Artists have been hired to sit in the banke and draw Sketches of any robbers, which will then be posted throughout the Towne. This, as well as death by public Hanging, should deter thieves. (The Banke has just posted the first sketch, reproduced here. Anyone seeing a person wearing a ski mask in Buffalo is Requested to have the nearest Constable place them under Arrest, and will be paid five pounds for their Troubles. ������ Food Editor In order to participate in the celebration of our country’s 200th birthday.

In a prepared statement, Nessen said Mr. Ford came to his decision after consultation with all his senior advisors, including Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Vice President Nelson A. Rockefeller. The actual painting will be done by the seventh grade class of the Aaron Burr Junior High School of Waukegan, Illinois, which proposed the move in a letter to the President. When queried by newsmen as to the real motivation behind the move, Nessen replied heatedly that the President’s only motivation was patriotism, and added that if Jimmy Carter gets to the White House, “he can paint peanuts or anything else he wants” on the White House walls, but that while the President is in command, he will do “whatever he Goddamn pleases!” Then the press secretary left the continued on Page 37 The way things really were by Danny Zwicker Noted Historian At this very historic and reflective moment in our nation’s history, it is time to look back and examine the great, yet obscure moments in the ancestry of v our own great presidential family.

Fifth grade to go LRSH questioned on its academic integrity by Michael and Karen Teacher's Pets Fifth Grade will be Phased Out at the Buffalo Little Red School House (LRSH) because of “questionable academic integrity,” if the recent Report of His Majesty’s Ackademic Planning Committee is Allowed to Stand. Royal Committee Co-Chairman MacAlistair Tull, in a Memorandum to LRSH headmaster Mothuselah Ketter, reported that “many of the Programs of study in the Fifth grade are actually mere elaborations on Programs in the Fourth or Simplifications of the Sixth grade Programme, and thus their Ranking in the LRSH need Profile is only fair to Poor.” While Noting that the Fifth Grade programme is the only one in Buffalo, Tull said that his cannot override the poor Publishing record of the Fifth grade’s only teacher, Ludwig von Duck. Of the three books Published in Buffalo during the past year, Mr. von Duck did not Write any of them, Tull asserted. That's not Donald Mr. von Duck angrily retorted that the Ackademic Planning Report was simply a Smokescreen for attacks on Innovative education by the Tory establishment. The fifth Grade was being Attacked, said yon Duck, because it was the only level where the True History of the British Empire is studied. Furthermore, von Duck charged, “1 suppose that it’s only coincidence that they want to fire the only Duck teaching in the Schoolhouse. To assume Otherwise would be to Challenge the Unbiased Objectivity of the committee.’ A group of fifth grade Students attending a Teacher’s Conference on the Report demanded to know why there were not any Ducks Included on the Planning Committee. “Who is MacAlistair Tull anyway?”, they queried, “Who elected him? We thought we were a Self-Governing, autonomous Collective!” Bird Feeder The eighth grade Teacher, who asked to remain Anonymous, speculated that von Duck was “having his Goose cooked,” because of his unorthodox Teaching methods. Leslie Feeder added that he considered Classics Comics a perfectly valid teaching Tool, adding that great books are those that are truly Subversive and not those that get on lists of great books. Clifton Yearlong, the Committee’s other Co-chairman, defended the Report’s suggestion to phase out the month of February at the Conference today. Yearlong said that the month had been badly deficient in days ever since it was cut back to 28 a few years ago. Also, he added, the committee had received a little Information about February’s programme, and thus assumed it had little Validity. Klunk Howarde Klink, of the February Fight-Back Committee, charged that the real Reason February has fallen into Disfavor comes from the Leap Day Fiasco of this fall. In that incident, the Ratter administration forgot to ask His Majesty for Funds to pay LRSH staff for teaching on Leap Day, leaving the School House budget $225 in the Hole. It is in retribution for this embarassment that the administration wants to shut down the whole month, Klink said. Klink also insisted that February had sent Information to the Committee, only to have the committee Misplace it. At the End of the conference, the eight elementary teachers and the four High School Teachers voted “no confidence” in the Royal Committee’s report. They were promptly shipped back to England, and will stand trial there for Treason and Sedition under the Rules for the Maintenance of Royal Order.

Students of this University and faculty should join hands in saluting President Ketta’s new program “Negative Action.” Ketta initiated this innovative program after meeting with students in HAAS Lounge last Wednesday. During the verbose question and answer period, Ketta repeatedly replied that although he was sympathetic to the needs of the students, there was virtually nothing he could do, thus setting the flavor for his creative new program. “Negative Action entails the benign neglect of women and minorities in hiring situations,” claimed Ketta proudly. “Negative Action should be everything Affirmative Action isn’t, plus more,” he added. The “un”-hiring of women and minorities is not foreign to the administration’s past dealings, and would hardly be worth the space in the paper without sounding mundane and banal. However, Ketta fooled us this time when he suddenly radicalized his program by hiring 143 white, middle-class males to fill the empty positions normally occupied by Teaching and Graduate Assistants. Richard M. Nixon Isabel Peron Up the system To the Editor. In the wake of the Patty Hearst case, a number of people, especially students, have voiced their disapproval of the verdit, and the entire judical system of the United States This, I feel, is a grievous error. Our judicial system has endured for almost 200 years, through all kinds of social and international crises, and it has become stronger for all its trials (no pun intended). To claim now that it is incapable of securing justice for all our citizens is a totally irresponsible and fallacious charge, and these irrational assholes should have their heads examined.

Foob Ye Olde Historical Consultant One of America’s oldest families is regularly left of most history books despite the fact its members have played integral parts in the development of our great country throughout its history. The Bogenregens, like all long-line American clans, came oVer on the Mayflower, but many of their important deeds are often overlooked. In fact, the Bogenregens were originally from Spain. Christopher Columbus’ first mate was Sam Bogenregen, and although few people know this, it is a documented fact that Sam Bogenregen was the first European to set foot on Santo Domingo when he landed the Lumpa (Columbus’s little known fourth boat) in the New World. out Bogenregens stowaway The Bogenregens moved out of Spain and into England a few years later, htiching a ride on the Spanish Armada. Barney Bogenregen decided to move his family to America in 1620 because he figured he would be needed in the new surroundings. You see, Barney was a tailor and as he told the Pilgrims, “You’re all going to need clothes .. When the Revolutionary War came around, the Bogenregen’s were once again in the limelight. Flash Bogenregen, the great great grandson of Barney, was Paul Revere’s steed. But the Bogenregen’s real contribution to the war effort came after the fighting was over. Noah Regenbogen, Flash’s grand nephew, wrote the first American history book. Being somewhat less than sober at the time, he confused the two hilly battles in Boston, giving the American’s credit for a win at Bunker Hill that they didn’t in fact deserve. It was during the war years that the ugly side of Bogenregen’s surfaced. Mortimer Bogenregen, the family’s black sheep who was still living in England, was the lawyer/accountant who drew up the papers, for Benedict Arnold’s traitorship. Today’s descendents of the Bogenregen clan are now known as “Regenbogen.” This reversal of the name began when Stanislaus misspelled his son’s name on the birth certificate. Born in 1903, Murray Bogenregen was officially named Regenbogen, and the surname has stuck ever since. But this name change has not stopped the Regenbogen’s from contributing to America’s rich heritage. It was Sol Regenbogen who backed the building of Canarsie, one of America’s most unusual landmarks. Visitors to Canarsie marvel at the strange dialects of English spoken there. Sol was so enthusiastic about Canarsie, that he moved his whole family there. The Bogenregen secret Perhaps the most important contribution of the Regenbogens is almost always overlooked. When the signing of‘the Declaration of Independence took place in 1776, a section quilled in small print delegated an important job to the then Bogenregens. They were put in charge of counting the number of years that America has been in existence. A secret mathematical /ormula has been passed for Bogenregen to Bogenregen, and without it nobody would be able to figure out just how old America is. Rumor has it that Zeus Bogenregen lost track around the turn of the century when he forgot to “carry the one,” but his descendents Ipve refused to comment on this. Actually, without the “Regenbogen formula,” as it is known around Washington, this whole Bicentennial celebration could never take place because nobody would know when America would turn 200. Americans are forever in debt to the Regenbogens for all their past service. Mitchell Regenbogen, one of the clansmen alive today, says that he will continue in the grand tradition of past Regenbogens. Mitchell will long be remembered for his famous quote from 1973, “Give me liberty, or give me food service.” Ye Olde Spectrum Business Manager Howard Bloenig pleaded guilty Tuesday to 16 counts of third-degree grand larceny, five counts of petty larceny and 6000 counts of general pettiness. Bloenig, who will turn 24 next month, was scheduled for sentencing on May 28th by Criminal Court Judge Oliver Wendell Lorenzetti. The assorted charges carry a possible term of up to life imprisonment (which Bloenig admitted was no sacrifice), or six months in Bert Black's Political Sceince Class “Hacks in Contemporary Society." The third degree larceny charges were pressed against Bloenig in connection with what Judge Lorenzetti termed "horrendously dubious R.E.P.V' One such R.E.P., drawn on Ye Olde Spectrum funds, was reportedly made payable to Dan Greed Chevrolet, Inc., as a down payment on a 1976 Monte Carlo, equipped with overdrive. Other charges stemmed from Bloenig's misuse of Ye Olde Spectrum funds and equipment. The defendent claimed that he "didn't see anything wrong with xeroxing five dollar bills." — Ye olde quiz you gotbrains?

Ketta warned, “Many students holding very high positions in this, school are going to be affected by this. Let them see how it feels to have their asses kicked around campus for a change.” Ketta also noted that he was only undertaking this investigation for the good of the students. “Nothing personal kids,” he said. to this Student reaction disclosure was immediate. Amid several unsubstantiated reports that suitcases were lining the hallways of the second and third floors ->f Norton three deep, and that local travel agents had experienced an unprecedented surge in business, many student leaders reacted strongly to Ketta’s latest move. Shameful “I think it’s shameful,” said a spokesperson for New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). “It’s just another example of his (Ketta’s) reactionary politics.” Upon Ye Olde installed noticing Spectrum’s the recently wall-to-wall white shag carpet and mahogany and marble rollaway bar in the NYPIRG office the spokesperson commented, “In order to investigate corporate executives properly you have to first understand the way in which they live.” One case specifically mentioned in Ketta’s announcements is the recent proposal by Schussmeister’s Ski Club to use part of their mandatory fee allocation to buy one of the Swiss Alps. The deal would include a complete ski resort, a lodge, and a small town of six thousand people. “This purchase clearly fits within the objectives of Schussmeisters,” said a club official. “And there is nothing inconsistent about the director of the club moving his office to a villa on that mountain. The mayor of that town has always lived in that villa.” Steve Schmutz declined comment because he couldn’t understand the question. Another SA elected official believed that Ketta’s actions could jeopardize the planned moving of the SA’s offices. “It’s clear that Ketta is using this tactic to divide the of said. ‘The movement students,” she undergraduate activity away from the Main Street Campus will make this place an empty shell within a few years. This has necessitated that the SA look for / a new location for its offices.” an SA search committee is scouting Carribean islands for an appropriate location. “It’s important that we have an adequate beachfront, wherever we decide to move. This is consistent with our policy to provide more daytime activities for commuter students. We’re leaning towards Antigua because of its proximity to the IRC and SASU offices in Barbados and Aruba. But the food and service in St. Tropez is so much better that it’s really a tough decision at this point.” Many observers feel that the catalyst of this investigation is Howie Bloenig, Te Olde Spectrum s Business Manager. Bloenig is best known to students by the chauffered purple and pink Cadillac Seville that escorts him around the campus. His chauffer, a former Miss April, is reported to earn more than Ketta himself, although Bloenig smiles, “Mandatory fees*isn’t the only source of her income, believe me.” Limousine Bloenig had been criticized in Ketta’s statement because of the six figure salary he receives as business manager. Asked if he had given much thought to his salary lately, Bloenig raged, “You bet I have! Look at anyone else making a salary like mine and they have an expense account. You think those chislers down at Sub-Board included that in their Spectrum allocation? Not a penny! Now out of my way - 836-8905 In an Rudest News Service unprecedented move.

Karen Kinney Why strike The supports Graduate the efforts — only as members of the University community but also as residents and taxpayers of this state. GSEU encourages all campus groups to participate in and cooperate with the Coalition in mobilizing your constituency to actively fight cutbacks to education. The Coalition and SA have called for an undergraduate strike vote. GSEU encourages all undergraduates to vote yes for an on-going strike, the termination of which should occur when the Coalition’s demands are satisfactorily met. GSEU has also called for s strike vote of all TA’s and GA’s. The decision to cutback education is political in nature a matter of misconstrued priorities. Through collective mass action these priorities can be redressed. A strike is imperative at this time. Vote — yes. — Graduate Student Employees Union To the Editor. This week from Wednesday to Friday, a referendum will be held to determine if the undergraduates at this University should strike against the cutbacks affecting education. We should also join with the GSEU in its proposed strike for next week and work with it in mutual support of our similar struggles. Everyone is urged to vote and we would like to express our reasons why. This strike hasn’t been called on the spur of the moment. Rather, it is a further tool to fight the cutbacks. The anti-cutbacks movement has been active since the beginning of the fall semester. We have attempted to fight cuts in many ways, including letter writing, speaking with legislators, talking with administrators, and demonstrating both on and off campus. These efforts have unfortunately been in vain we have now been forced into action. Since the legislators, Board of Trustees, and administration are allowing education and social services to decay, we now say that we must stop business as usual. Their concept of business as usual does not agree with ours; thus, we are stopping business until education truly serves the needs and the wants of the — people. The real party line wish Mr. Fung would do some investigation on the matter before making such groundless statements. Everyone in our party has been working diligently and coherently, and nobody has ever been “forced to run” for any office. Mr. Fung, you have to produce more concrete facts in order to convince the public. Mr. Fung is well aware of the fact that rifts exist among the Chinese students. We hope that the harm caused by slanders will be realized, and the unity of the whole Chinese Student body be placed above all else. The Service Party’s motto is: “To serve our fellow students wholeheartedly.” We welcome your suggestions and concrete criticisms. ununited.” I To the Editor. I am writing in response to Mr. John Fung’s letter published in Monday’s The Spectrum. Mr. Fung charges the Service Party Candidates as being “prejudiced.” This is totally groundless. Anyone who has read our declaration knows that our party’s attitude toward the Chinese Students Association is that it should reflect the interests of all Chinese Students at the University, regardless of place of birth, political and religious beliefs. Individual preferences, of course, do not reflect the party’s line. On the question of our campaign, Mr. Fung does not have the slightest knowledge of what campaigning work we have been doing, and yet accuses us of being “unactive, unorganized, and Peter Yuen Chairman, Service Party ~ The Coalition opposes all cuts in social services which are the basic needs of -the people. If these thoughts represent your own, then we urge you to VOTE YES!! We recognize that a strong, united fighting mass movement of students, faculty and is the only thing that cart begin to fight workers the control of the banks and corporations in determining use of state money. That is, ultimately, why we, the students, should go on strike; to make education responsive to the needs of the people and for the right of all of us to control our own lives. For students, it means a boycott of all classes, for faculty, it means cancelling classes and asking their students to attend the teach-ins, picketlines, and other strike activities planned. For classified and professional employees, who can’t strike because of the N.Y. State Taylor Law, it means supproting us and attending those activities in which they may participate without penalty. ON WED. THURS. AND FR1. OF THIS WEEK, - — VOTE YES! VOTE TO STRIKE!!! Coalition To Fight the Cutbacks The executives speak The Executive Committee of the SGA met on 1976 and reviewed the budget cutbacks faced by the entire University community and March 28, particularly the graduate students. The unanimous sentiment expressed by the members of the Executive Committee was that public higher education was seriously threatened by the low priority given to it by the Carey administration. The increase in tuition and dorm expenses, the reductions in student services the cuts in TA/GA lines and the elimination of tuition waiver and other sources of financial assistance to students, was understood by the GSA executives to be clear indication that the Governor considers higher education an item of luxury to be dispensed to those who can afford it. We feel that public higher education is not a luxury but a right of the taxpayers of this State. Accordingly, in light of the GSA senate resolution of November 25, 1975, we extend our support to all sectors of SUNY that are fighting the cutbacks and struggling for quality education. against Specifically, we support the SA resolution passed on March 26, 1976 which calls for a referendum of the undergraduate student body to determine if a strike should be held. We encourage all undergraduates to participate in the referendum and all activities organized by the SA. Further, in accordance with the GSA resolution of November 1975, we support the GSEU in its legitimate demands. We efforts to secure encourage all TAs and GAs to participate in the strike vote organized by the GSEU to determine if they should go on strike. We are encouraged by the successful strikes held by GAs and TAs in Wisconsin and Michigan all of which led, to union recognition and negotiations of student demands. We believe that the actions planned by the GSEU will lead similar positive results. Wednesday, 31 March 1976 The Spectrum .

' We members of the African Graduate Student Association, meeting at an open forum of discussion with all the members of the University community interested in the course of freedom in Africa, on this day, the 20th of March 1976, hereby resolve as follows: 1. We call on the Organization of African Unity and its members nations to give total support in manpower, material and publicity to the Liberation Movements in Southern Africa until complete independence is achieved by every African nation under the yoke of colonialism, apartheid and racist the oppression. national Liberation Movements 2. to close ranks and work together for the achievement of total independence in their respective countries. 3. We urge all member nations of the Organization of African Unity to remain alert to the forces of external subversion and importantly, to keep the interest of Africa foremost in their deliberations. 4. We call on all the member nations of the Organization of African Unity to give, as a matter of urgency, the assistance in men and material needed by Mozambique in its just struggle against the evil forces of racism and aggression in Zimbabwe. 5. We recognize that the only alternative left available to the cause of freedom and equality in Southern Africa is armed struggle. 6. We condemn all forces that help the racist minority regimes in any way, whether by “signals,” diplomatic assistance, economic relations or aid in men and material. 7. We support and commend ail progressive forces giving assistance to the Liberation Movements in Southern Africa. 8. Finally, we ask all men of goodwill everywhere in the world to inform their leaders and communities on the importance of desisting from any action that .will in any way impede the course of freedom in Africa the freedom they hold so dearly We call on all — themselves. 9 THE CAUSE OF FREEDOM MUST AND WILL PREVAIL! The African Graduate Student Association A little figuring To the Editor. ' It is unfortunate that tuition rates have gone up, and there is much anguish on campus. However, a central question is: What is the individual student getting in return for his/her money? Let us say you are a freshman or sophomore carrying a normal load and paying $750 per semester. If you take Geology 103, for example, it will cost about $190. In return, you get 45 hours of formal lecture instruction plus 30 hours of instruction in the laboratory. This works out to a cost to you of $2.53 per hour. This is not much more than the cost of a small box of dried apricots or five packs of cigarettes. In addition, there are the further services of the library, student union and other University facilities at your disposal as well as outside consultation with any of the professors in our department, each of whom has seven to nine years advanced formal training and, on the average, ten years teaching experience to serve you. Another angle is the fact that the average college graduate earns about $300,000 more than a high school graduate over a lifetime career. This works out to be about $9400 more you will earn over your lifetime because you took Geology 103.1 figure this to be approximately $180.80 for each rock you learn about. In pondering these statistics, it appears that the investment you are making isn’t such a big ripoff at all. Jn fact, a return of $9400 for an investment of $190 smells to me like big corporation windfall profits. To correct this injustice, each University grad should set aside, say, 10 percent of lifetime profits and donate it back to the University that made it all possible. Charles J. Cazeau Associate Professor P.S. I myself have done this, but by default you might say, because the University is paying me 10 percent less than what 1 am really worth. Page sixteen . The Spectrum Wednesday, 31 March 1976 . * , TRB. The danger of what I will call the Henry L. Mencken Complex is that the Washington reporter comes to the conclusion that the whole performance.. is put on for his personal It entertainment, and is not to be taken is an insinuating illusion. Nobody before or after Mencken could describe it so pungently, but he is gone and the show continues, and you find yourself saying, if he were only here. When President Ford the other day at the West Wilkes High School Gymnasium Wilkesboro, North Carolina, boasted about his handling of the celebrated Mayaguez affair, it needed a Mencken. When Mr. Ford’s acting campaign manager, Stuart Spencer, cited Jimmy Carter’s evangelical and faith-healing sister, Mrs. Ruthi Carter Stapleton, last week as an illustration to prove that Carter is a “fundamentalist” and then balked at trying to define “fundamentalist.” Mencken’s ghost was there rubbing his hands at the erratic 1976 presidential performance. In fact, maybe, the entire American scene requires a Mencken. Anybody can see that the system of selecting a presidential candidate with 31 primaries is crazy. But is it any more so than having one party control Congress, and another the White House? That’s crazy, too. Mencken adored it. Or take my favorite illustration, gun control. Five presidential commissions have solemnly linked handguns with America’s bigger and better crime rate. Americans are supposed to object to crime, and they constantly demand tougher penalties to stop it. Every opinion poll of modern times shows that 70 percent' or more of the public favors registration or abolition of hand guns. But does Congress react? Congress is supposed to be the creature of the public, but pass a handgun registration act in defiance of the American Rifle Association? It would rather go without celebrating Latvian independence day! Mencken is cackling somewhere in his particular paradise of beer and Bach. 1 remember that far off day in Elwood, Indiana, with Mencken, waiting for Wilkie’s acceptance speech, interviewing pompous master about Capehart of ceremonies Homer arrangements for servicing 300,000-or-so visitors in the little town on such matters, for example, as comfort stations (I think Joe Alsop was with us), and Capehart boasting that he had set lots of them, “each one a hundred-holer.” Mencken could hardly wait to get out of the room to vent his exquisite satisfaction at this addition to the American language. Mencken should have been in the Wilkesboro audience when Mr. Ford said, “1 think what I did in the case of the Mayaguez is a good example of the decisiveness that I can act with when we are faced with a problem. I could / do it again.” He could do it in Cuba, for example. He and Kissinger ached to do it in Angola. But pussyfooting meanies in Congress blocked him. Yes sir, he told the literati of Lenoir Rhyne College, Hickory, North Carolina, March 20, his proposal to spend $28 million to frustrate communism in Angola was cruelly thwarted. But for Congress, he told them, “Communism, whether it is the Soviet Union or Cuba, wouldn’t be there today. That is unforgivable but that is the fact,” he told his gaping audience. Now that the Soviet Union “controls that very rich country,” he added, “I think the American public wishes we had made that investment.” The Mayaguez affair for Americans in May a year ago was like balm to a smarting wound; we , had lost Vietnam and were lost on humiliation and then decisive Mr. Ford bombed the hell out of Cambodia’s Tang Island. He sank three Cambodian gunboats, struck the Sihanoukville oil depot (proved unused), and restored America’s self-respect. “There are limits beyond which the United States cannot be pushed,” said a proud Henry Kissinger. Thirty-four minutes after the U.S. destroyer Wilson had reported that the American crew was all rescued the oil depot was struck over the protest of neighboring Thailand. We used our base there to launch the attack on Cambodia and later apologized after Bangkok recalled its ambassador. (The Thai students remember it and are demanding that our troops leave now.) We rescued the 39 crewmen 1 and lost only 38 or so servicemen in doing it. And, as Mencken would sardonically observe, witlv, A glitter from his china-blue eyes, it restored Mr. Ford to his rightful role as national leader; in early May only 40 percent approved the way he was handling his office and 43 percent disapproved; after Mayaguez came the second 11 points sharpest jump upward ever recorded to 51 percent! (The sharpest gain, you will be glad to know, was the 17-point jump Nixon got in January, 1973 after achieving Vietnam — “peace.” Can anybody doubt that a little chastisement of Cuba right now would send Mr. Ford’s stock similarly soaring? There is a hateful little nation just asking to be kicked, and there is Mr. Ford in the high school gym proclaiming his decisiveness. It would make us all a little taller. The other item Mencken would have enjoyed recently is this preliminary confrontation of Mr. Ford’s campaign manager, the coihpetent and professional Stuart Spencer, with the Jimmy Carter problem. The problem is such in Washington today that you can’t so much as say “Jimmy” in a cocktail party but what all other conversation stops and guests come bounding over to participate. At a breakfast meeting with reporters last week campaign manager Spencer raised the baffling subject himself. It is here that journalists face the dangerous Mencken Syndrome; it is so much fun watching -conventional politicians sweating over the soft-voiced, Twice-Born Carter, that we are apt to lose our objectivity a little and give the curious new kid a boost up just for the hell of it. Carter remarked in an interview here that he planned in his first week in office to pardon all the draft defectors: “I don’t intend to criticize the young people who left the country,” he said, “I’d just issue a blanket pardon without comment.” The country is worried about its future and its soul, and here is a Baptist from Georgia who wins elections and stops George Wallace, and says he won’t lie, and carries black wards and white wards in southern states, and speaks without the slightest embarrassment about his relationship with Jesus. Manager Spencer noted the article about Carter’s chic, handsome sister, the mother of four and mysticr who says she will put her own work aside, “until Jimmy gets in the White House.” There is a set of standards here, and a vocabulary, and a way of looking at things, that no other presidential candidate in modern times, I think, has offered. Manager Spericer advanced the word “Fundamentalist,” and then hastily retreated from it; religion, he said, hasn’t been mixed up in a campaign since Kennedy broke through the barrier in 1960. And what is a Fundamentalist, and is Garter one? The inquiring reporter is as uncertain as anybody. The most reassuring thing about Jimmy, perhaps, is his 78-year old ex-Peace Corps mother, “Miss Lillian,” who observed, “I told him to quit this stuff about never telling a lie, and being a Christian, and how he loves his wife more than the day he met her.” Can we scoff at this? Mencken, where are you? �Indications show Humphrey readying for presidential bid Senator Hubert H. Humphrey, who has figured in every Presidential election since 1960, appears to be warming up for the Democratic nomination this summer. The Minnesota legislator has said he is not a candidate, but recent activities indicate that Humphrey is getting ready to play a more active role in the campaign. The first hint that Humphrey was ready to join the fray came several weeks ago, when uncommitted slates of delegates announced that they were pledging themselves to Humphrey in the April 6 primary. All four of the Western New York “organization” slates have now shifted to Humphrey, and it is widely believed that these moves reflect the wishes of Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, a long-time Humphrey supporter. Democratic party regulars and volunteers distributed leaflets over the past weekend, urging Democratic voters to cast -their ballots for Humphrey, and identifying the delegates whose names will appear' on the ballot in each Congressional district. Nolo contendere Humphrey, while maintaining that he is not a contender for the nomination, has stated that, if the The women’s varsity team will begin spring practice tomorrow, April I, from 3:30 to 5:00 p.m. on the Rotary Courts.

Betty For additional information contact Coach Dimmick, Room 209 Clark Hall. convention became deadlocked, and the party turned to him, “I would run, and 1 would win.” The chances of a deadlocked convention becomes greater as more candidates enter the field, especially “favorite son” candidates such as Jerry Brown of California. Brown is expected to take many of California’s 280 delegates, which will make it increasingly difficult for any candidate to attain a majority on an early ballot. The Humphrey presence hampered the Buffalo appearances of Senator Henry Jackson over the weekend. Jackson was trying to attack Jimmy Carter’s Stances, but the local press bombarded him with questions about Humphrey. In addition, attention has been centered upon a visit Humphrey will be making to Canisius College this Thursday, only five days before the New York primary. Humphrey’s office points out that the senator was invited by Canisius, and was not responsible for the timing of the event. Recent investigations by the nation’s leading pollsters have shown that Humphrey has a broad base of support among the voters, and simulated match-ups against President Ford have shown that a Humphrey-led ticket would probably do as well as any other ticket the Democrats put together. New playoffformat for ECA C In an effort to gain increased representation in the NCAA baseball championships, the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) has set up a system of post-season tournaments so that “independent” teams can advance to the NCAA playoffs. Buffalo will be a member of the new set-up’s District II, which encompasses schools from New York through Maryland. Canisius and Niagara are also in District II. Last year, explained Buffalo’s baseball coach Bill Monkarsh, the NCAA selection committee passed over the Eastern schools when considering invitations to the chamionship tournament. So, the Eastern baseball leaders copied basketball’s successful format, which separates the ECAC into serveral regions, and the playoff winner in each region advances to the NCAA tournament. A five man selection committee, on which Women’s tennis wifi determine the Monkarsh is an playoffs, two four-team in District II. participants in not yet and for the have playoffs The dates sites determined. been The new playoff format will give an added incentive to the Buffalo players. According to Monkarsh, “It will help us because it will get another Eastern team in. We had no chance at all last year.” he said. Another aim of the new set-up is to increase interest in ECAC baseball. "We are hopeful that it will generate the same type of enthusiasm for baseball that has developed in basketball." said ECAC Commissioner Robert M. Whitelaw. “It should be a great thing for the East if that happens, and we think it will.” Baseball, including a weekly ECAC All-Star team and a weekly compilation of the statistical leaders in both districts. alterna'te, ACROSS Ancient music halls Gourd Greek city-state Moscow tonsorial artist, perhaps Small donkey Lady-killer, literally Magic akin to voodoo More of the same: Abbr.

Carter said it is still too early to spell out the details but that he is "committed on his word of honor” to do so after he is elected. primary. Some media analysts, while Opponents of Carter claim he is running a popularity campaign, aware that Carter might say more smiling hi5 wa Y into the hearts of after the election, are impressed Americana without specifying with his political shrewdness and ’ /, • \ , - NYS not crucial During the press conference. Carter spoke at length about the politics of the upcoming primary. Senator Henry “Scoop” Jackson predicts a landslide victory bn April 6, but Carter believes that the momentum of his success noted, however, that he would not consider the New York primary crucial to his campaign and he believes he has enough support to withstand a defeat. Although. Carter said he has delegates qualified in all three election districts in Erie County, he acknowledged that there is a might carry him to victory. He Resolution passed SA rejects planning report The Student Association (SA) Senate has passed a resolution objecting to the interim report of President’s Committee on Academic Planning (PCAP) “in its methodology and substance.” The Senate’s resolution charged that the PCAP utilized and dated “inadequate and highly information questionable criteria” in its report. The resolution urged the SA Executive Committee, SA Faculty Senate Senate and “vigorously oppose” the PCAP report. The PCAP, appointed in September, 1975 by President Robert Ketter, is co-chaired by Graduate and Professional Dean McAllister Hull and History Department Chairman Clifton IC. Yearly. There are three students among the 16 members. The report called for the closing of Tolstoy College (College F), Social Sciences College,, the Department of Biophysical Sciences, the Department of Social, Historical and PhiiosopMcal Foundations of Education, and the Black Studies Department. Additionally, the report recommends the elimination of the Social Science Research the Center for Institute, International Conflict Studies and the Center for Educational Research. It also asked that the School of Information and Library Science be scaled down. The Committee also suggested consolidations or mergers of several other departments and programs. In some cases it suggested programs be transferred to other departments or faculties. Increases iir one form or another were proposed for Civil Electrical Engineering, Engineering, Chemistry, Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Pharmacy, Medical Technology, Physical Therapy, Counselor Education, the School of Management, the Law School and related programs, Psychology, the Center for Study of Human Groups, the Department of Art ancf Art History, and the History Department. Most public institutions of higher learning do not have academic plans, mainly because state their source of income are inconsistent in governments funding education from year to year. Ketter has been trying to get for this an academic plan University almost since the beginning of his tenure as president. In 1971, Ketter asked - - the Faculty Senate to produce an academic plan, watted a year, and none. The next year, got then-Aeademic Affairs Vice President Bernard Gelbaum, wrote his own academic plan for the wjth University. It met widespread criticism, mainly for what its critics saw as a bias against the Humanities. Several faculty members countered with one of their own, but it, too, was unacceptable. So Ketter is now closer to having ah academic plan than at any previous time. SA Director of Academic Affairs Andrew Lalonde charged that the report was done on short notice, and that the amount of time allotted for the Committee’s work was not enough to render an accurate assessment of the programs being evaluated. There was only “token student representation,” said Lalonde. “No matter what is said about this report, it will be used this summer when funds are appropriated.” He also charged that the departments recommended for increases were “fundamental” departments, having positive records of graduate employment. This will set up a “technical school” environment, Lalonde fears, causing a “mass production line” in education. The University Andy Lalonde will lose both the innovation and personality it now possesses, he added. While the report calls for the maintanance of most Colleges, it will restrict their right to give academic credit for their educational programs, Lalonde charged, adding that the more “radical” the educational programs were less popular with the PCAP. Lalonde was pleased that the Faculty was allowed to evaluate itself, and. suggested that the administration evaluate its own efficiency. He believes an administration evaluation of its own efficiency, determining where cuts could-be made, would serve to better disperse the University’s limited funding. area which observers feel will be to Senator. Hubert pledged Carter does not Humphrey. believe that Humphrey “is a factor at all in New York” or that he will emerge with a nomination from a deadlocked convention. Criticizing party bosses who put articitycigl obstacles in the way of candidates they don’t support, Cuter said he wants to see the election process remain in the hands of the people, and out of the mechanism of the New York State Democratic party. He cited former State Democratic Chairman Joseph Crangle, who remains active in Buffalo politics, as one such boss. ‘Joint during’ Carter opposes direct federal aid to New York City, but believes he has a plan that is acceptable to NYC officials. “I don’t intend to let the federal government come between the state and the city,” he said. Rather he wants to work out a “joint sharing of problems” and he suggested guaranteeing the integrity of New York State bonds. Asked by The Spectrum whether he supports Senator James Buckley’s legislation that would remove students from the food stamp roles. Carter said he intends to change the present welfare system so that there is no longer a need for a separate food Local stamp program. governments should not pay any portion of welfare costs, he said, and there should be a nationwide comprehensive commitment to urban problems. Finally, Carter would like to see the level of unemployment hover around the 3-4& percent mark, depending on the acceptable level of inflation in the country. ' . �IRC voting results ' The results of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) election were released Friday with Howie Cohen emerging as the presidential victor. Cohen received a total of 443 votes, almost twice as many as hfc opponents, Stuart Elson and Eric Gould, combined. Running unopposed for Executive Vice, President of IRCB, Vice President for Activities Planning and Treasurer were Michael Sadowsky, Ellen Schwartz and Hal Zwick, respectively. Only 856 of over 4100 dorm students voted. University, communi gap bridged by CAC The Community Action Corps (CAC) might be the only special interest group on campus whose primary interest is not itself. Consisting of 2,000 members, this student organization provides endless services to the University and,Buffalo community. Many people feel, in fact, that the organization his bridged a wide gap between the University and the Buffalo community, significantly deepened during the student demonstrations in the early part of the decade. “It has certainly improved relations,” claimed CAC First Assistant Director Gary Nadler. “As we continue to expand-into the community, the community develops more of an interest in and need for the organization. A positive relationship has continued to grow since its formation ten years ago Nadler said that CAC has also helped the community gain a better understanding of the community, in Deu of the recent student struggle against the SUNY cutbacks. “With all of the trouble that has recently been -occurring on campus, CAC has prevented many of the people in the community from becoming alienated from the University, he said. ” Innovative programs The organization is divided up into several sub-divisions, each led by the area coordinator; These'various areas include; Health Care, Education, Drug and Youth Counseling, Day Care, Recreation, Social Action, Senior Citizens Services, and Legal and Welfare Rights. Each area contains a few programs that distinguish different aspects of the field, thus enabling a volunteer to approach that field in a particular manner that he or she feels more comfortable in. This past year, CAC has expanded its program to deal with current problems, not previously attacked by the group. These include; Environmental Action, Community Housing Investigation Program, Food Stamp Outreach, Buffalo Women Against Rape, more innovative education and health care programs, and a new creative writing program conducted for senior citizens. Each program is geared to help those involved help themselves, dispelling the myth of the “parasite.” Everyone must participate •'clients” and volunteers. The creative writing project, led by Alison \ Krohn, illustrates this situation. - Volunteers needed “The creative writing program is an attempt to bring out the feelings and thoughts of senior citizens through poetry, prose or any creative writing,” Krohn explained. “Volunteers are needed to ‘teach’ or guide old people in the art of writing and self-discovery, and the discovery of each other.” CAC is now running into a few difficulties dealing with filling staff positions for next year. Nadler stated that in recent years fewer volunteers have been able to fill positions, “while at the same time, CAC is growing more complex.” He said that this might “possibly be due to student apathy.” “Students don’t realize that because this is.a student organization, new volunteers have to come in all the time, taking officer and coordinator positions. They receive on-the-job training, which is the most effective of all,” Nadler said. Presently, available CA£ positions include; Director, First Assistant Director and the various coordinators. “The new students add all the life,” he said. PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

These discussions should help, prepare students for an undergraduate referendum on whether or not to join a proposed state-wide student strike. A meeting was held over the weekend in Binghamton with student representatives from many SUNY campuses to set a date for the strike to dramatize student opposition to the cutbacks. In addition to the forums listed in the Student Association advertisement, the Coaltion to Fight Cutbacks is publicizing three additional'events. Today, at 2 p.m., a mass meeting will be held in Norton Hall from 2-4 p.m. and another meeting in Porter Cafeteria, on the Amherst Campus, to discuss recent student protest at SUNY campuses, to report on the meeting in Binghamton and to announce additional activities. Wednesday, March 31, the Coalition wfll sponsor a rally in Norton Hall at 1 p.m. to explain the importance of building a successful strike in order to reverse the cutbacks and score new gains. That evening, at 8 p.m., the Coalition has endorsed the talk by Victor Perlo, on the Economic Crisis and Education Cuts, which is sponsored by Social Sciences College. On Thursday, April 1, from 10 a.m.—noon, in Norton Hall, the Coalition will coordinate .a series of workshops where traditional academic units and programs, the Colleges, minority groups and service organizations can meet to discuss their special problems in light of the budget cutbacks.

Should Graduate Assistants (GA’s) and Teaching Assistants (TA’s) vote to strike, all graduate student teaching, research and class attendance by GA’s and TA’s could halt. An undergraduate referendum will be held this week on whether to strike in sympathy with GSEU. In the event of a GSEU strike, members will set up picket lines on campus and request that professors, students, staff and delivery personnel not cross them. GSEU representatives have already talked to officials of the Teamsters Union, which represents many truck drivers, to ensure that union members would honor the picket lines. The OSEU strike vote is a reaction to threats that financial aid fdr graduate students will be cut off in Albany, and President Robert Ketter’s insistance that only the State Legislature grant the GSEU’s demands. Five demands The five GSEU demands Ketter has said only the state could fulfill are a guaranteed TA/GA salary of $4000 a year plus a tuition waiver; restoration of the 165 GA/TA lines cut since 1974-75; guarantee funding throughout a graduate student’s degree program; insurance coverage against employment-related accident and liability; adherence to Affirmative Action guidelines in hiring of TA’s and GA’s. GSEU officials said ballots will be distributed today to all state-funded GA’s and TA’s by the union steward in departments that have them, and by mail in all others. Completed ballots (which are secret) will be collected by the steward or else dropped off in collection boxes located at Baldy Hall, Ellicott, Ridge Lea and at the Main Street Campus. The vote will be counted on Friday, with a “mass union meeting” set for Friday night to discuss the results and decide a course of action. The GSEU has mailed letters seeking support for their organizing efforts to all state legislators, all Common Council members, some local political leaders, labor unions and community groups. The letter introduces GSEU, tells about their efforts to be recognized by the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), explains the five demands, and asks the organization or individual to write a letter to Ketter and to GSEU expressing their support for the union. —Vazquez Student Senate Senate passes resolution for referendum on student strike by Jerry Rosoff Monday and Tuesday, March 29 and 30, and will be co-organized by SA and the Coalition, to inform the student body of the entire budgetary situation. Spectrum Staff Writer The Student Senate voted Thursday to hold a referendum to determine whether this University will join other State University (SUNY) campuses in a strike to protest budget custs and fee increases. The vote is scheduled for March 31'. The resolution calling for the referendum and informational teach-ins was proposed by SA President Steve Schwartz. The March 31 date and a pledge of the Senate’s support for a possible strike and the Coalition to Fight The Cutbacks’ demands were contained in a separate proposal, introduced by Acting Director of Public Information, Bill Finkelstein, sponsored by the Coalition to Fight the Cutbacks. Workshops set The proposed workshops will concern the SUNY budget, student services and “Parcel B.” An open forum with SUNY Board of Trustees and local legislators and a voter registration drive are planned. The dismissal of charges against Stephen Kline (arrested at Hayes Hall March 19) was also called for , in Schwartz’s proposal. Schwartz’s resolution also called for the SA President to “write a letter to the Board of Trustees asking them to rescind their decision on tuition and dormitory fee raises and instead hold open hearings on these issues and on all future issues before the Trustees.” A major cause of debate was the section of Schwartz’s resolution instructing the President to write a letter to “Governor Carey and the SUNY Board of Trustees suggesting that instead of raising ‘taxes’ on students [tuition the State look into raising luxury taxes [liquor, cigarette excise taxes).” Educational efforts The biggest complaint about this portion of the proposal was that students would loose public support by proposing any increase in taxes. A change was finally agreed upon, instructing Schwartz to request Carey to secure funds from the supplemental budget and any other means possible. The Senate decided that teach-ins will be held What kind of strike Should the student body vote to strike, a decision will also have to be made on whether it will be a one-day strike followed by lobbying, or an on-going strike lasting until the demands are met. Finkelstein voted against his own resolution because he did not feel it was physically possible for SA to prepare the teach-ins and referendum by March 31. The Senate also pledged their support to the demands of the Graduate Student EmployeerUnion (GSEU). Should the GSEU decide to strike, they will have to seek SA’s support again, however. Housing In other business, the Senate agreed to settle their lawsuit to change the present Housing contract out of court. According to SA lawyer Richard Lippes, “We have gotten everything we could expect to get without going to court.” The University agreed to do away with the “collective guilt” provision which held an entire group of resident students responsible for any damage to a common facility. Only individuals will be held responsible now and they will be given two weeks to pay for the damages. The student will also have the right to appeal Housing’s decision. Maintenance and Security must now provide notice before entering a student’s room. This does not include emergency situations. A student will now also be able to sue the University for damages to his property, impossible under the conditions set oy the present contract. A move to support an emergency ambulance service funded by Sub Board I, Inc. with mandatory student fees was tabled until a further study can be made concerning the actual cost of the entire operation. The Senate also voted not to abolish the Financial Assembly and to incorporate all its powers into the Student Senate. UNDER THE AUSCPCES OF THE BUTLER CHAIR, THE DEPT.

Communist party speaker Spectrum Staff Writer Stating that the acceptance of the IQ theories developed by Jensen, Herrnstein and Eyesenck could have broad practical implications for the future of education, Lawler noted that IQ proponents have openly admitted their findings are designed to explain why social inequalities exist among people and why some children perform better in school than others. Lawler pointed out that Jensen, in his major article, “How Much Can We Boost IQ and Lawler noted that the method employed in IQ testing is to search for test items that will differentiate people. Test items that do not differentiate people are bad test items. Also, Lawler said, the assumption is that some people, have innately superior intelligence and that a normal curve accurately describes the IQ variations between general populations. Noting that this conception of intelligence failed to take into account the general Scholastic Achievement,” development of intelligence as a suggested that efforts to improve result of social and scientific the IQ’s of underprivileged progress as well as the children by the government development of each individual’s program Operation Headstart had knowledge and abilities, Lawler failed because it was based on the stated that, “IQ scores take on a that premise school changeless, a historical character.” poor performances by children are due In fact, one would have to to their environment. increase his knowledge and abilities just to maintain an Syllogism average IQ, according to Lawler. According to Lawler, Jensen that intelligence suggests is inherited and basically fixed, and that environmental factors such as educational programs can do very little to expand intelligence. Lawler also cited Herrnstein’s claim that the main significance of intelligence testing is its ability to explain social inequalities. Lawler referred to Herrnstein’s Atlantic Monthly article in which the author says of IQ testing: the main significance of intelligence testing is what it says about a society built around human inequalities. The message is so clear that it can be made in the form of a syllogism: “ ... If differences in mental abilities are interited, and 1. 2. If success requires those abilities, and 3. If earnings and prestige depend on success Then social standing 4. (which reflects earnings and prestige) will be based to some extent on inherited differences among people.” Difficulties Lawler did not deny that certain IQ tests could produce results that established different abilities among people to do well on IQ tests. He objected to the claim that the ability to do well on IQ tests is an indication of a person’s general intellectual that capacity. Pointing out or intellectual intelligence capacity was to a great extent dependent not on genes but on the economic and scientific development of a society, Lawler claimed that the “best ‘brains’" of the middle I.

This time, however, there is an innocent third party involved. Festival East Productions. This latest battle centers over who is to get the use of the Aud on Tuesday, April 6. The Braves have a game scheduled 1 for that night against the New York Knickerbockers, the first game of a Tuesday-Thursday home-and-home series 'which could be crucial to the Braves' chances of making the playoffs. Waiting in the wings for the outcome of all this is Festival East Productions, which has rented the Auditorium for the Wednesday night in question for a J. Geils Band/Peter Frampton concert. A call to their ticket office on Friday revealed that they have not been approached by the Sabres about the possibility that their show might be cancelled. A subsequent call to the executive offices of the Sabres confirmed that the Sabres have made no move toward Festival East. Paul Wieland, head of public relations for the Sabres, told The Spectrum that the Sabres do have first rights, under their contract with the city as prime tenant in the Auditorium, to any date, but that they did not want to have to “bump” the concert if they could avoid The Sabres expect to be in a first round NHL it. “They never bother us, and I hope we never playoff at that time, and they want to play on that Tuesday, in the event that they happen to be playing have to bother them,” Wieland said, adding that a West Coast team. If this is the case, and the series Festival East uses the Aud on many occasions, and goes the distance, the Sabres would have to make that they and the Sabres have never had any conflict.

At �Gay profs still being fired (CPS) A drama professor at the University of Delaware recently lost his job, even though his record was excellent and he was popular with students. But Richard Aumilleir had a "problem” in the eyes of the authorities: Not only was he gay, he was an outspoken gay who urged gay students to stop hiding and “come out of the closet.” Aumiller’s firing, the result of the fact that the University’s president did not want to “read about the bedroom activities” of a faculty member, is only one example of what can happen to professors who admit they are homosexual. Gay profs have been fired simply for coming out, banned from speaking to campus groups, harassed in a myriad of ways. In many cases, they are not allowed to appeal decisions made against them. Gay academicians are still controversial enough that even teacher unions are leery of supporting them too enthusiastically. Then there are those gay teachers who are not fired because they are not allowed to teach to begin with. By no means are all gay professors discriminated against. But the threat is great enough that most gay professors are still in the closet. The stigma can be so damaging that even many tenured gay professors are unwilling to come out. A gay professor at Hunter College in New York estimated that one-fourth of the faculty' chairing departments are A gay professor who conducted a survey of the nation’s English professors found that over 20 percent were hidden bisexuals or homosexuals. — Asbentee primary ballots was challenging the stereotype.

Birth control pills: possible dangeraired Dr. Gerald Murphy of Roswell Park Memorial Institute warns women who use birth control pills they are running a greater risk of developing liver tumors than women who do not. Murphy issued a statement Wednesday that doctors at Roswell have noticed in the past few years “a small but increasing number of women with tumors of the liver” whose medical histories “revealed a common characteristic: the use of oral contraceptives.” Murphy said that, although he does not wish to frighten anyone unduly, “it is our responsibility to alert the public on possible adverse resulting from prolonged use of certain oral contraceptives.” He reported that test results so far have shown that not all types of birth control pills are equally risky when it comes to liver tumors. Those containing steroids or mestranol were most frequently associated with the tumor victims, he said. Early detection He added that Roswell’s recent studies have shown a danger of both cancerous and benign liver tumors in the pill users, and cancer of the tumor is one of the most difficult to remove from the body. Murphy did say that benign tumors evolve into cancerous growths if untreated, or they may remain benign and grow, eventually causing massive hemorrhaging or a fatal rupture of theliver. Murphy said the most common symptom reported by women who developed the tumot was “a sudden onset of pain in the upper right abdomen." To aid in early detection of such tumors, he recommended that all pull users request a liver palpatation in their annual physical checkups. He also urged these women to promptly report to their physician “any pain in the upper right quadrant of their abdomen as well as any discernable enlargement in that area.” S.A.

The Secretary of State’s position ignores the offical State, Department position" on that nation. The U.S. does not maintain relations with Rhodesia, and participates in a U.N.-imposed on all Rhodesian embargo products (an exception is made by the U.S. for chromium). Thus, if Kissinger is to be taken seriously, he is suggesting that the U.S. invade a nation one twentieth of our size if Cuba helps topple a regime we officially oppose. Kissinger’s answer to this contradiction is to insist on a negotiated end to all-white rule in Rhodesia, an approach that has consistently failed during the eleven years since that regime was founded. Recently, Rhodesian Prime Minister Ian Smith opposed as “too extreme” a British proposal for majority rule within two years. He suggested “ten to fifteen” years. Rhodesia, a former British colony located in southeast Africa, declared its independence from England on November 11, 1965. At that time. Smith announced that the nation's white minority (280,000 out of a total population of six million) would rule indefinitely. For this reason, Britain refused to recognize the new nation (as it had most of its former colonies), and the U.S. followed suit. Britain soon declared an against economic embargo Rhodesia, meaning that neither the British government nor British J firms could trade with the nation in any way. In May 1968, the embargo was adopted officially by the United Nations, with U.S. support. Prime targets of the embargo yrere Rhodesian chromium is vital to U.S. industries and, is not readily available from other nations. A number of other industrial nations have gotten along quite well without Rhodesian chrome, albeit with less shiny cars. At times, U.S. longshoremen have refused to unload shipments of Rhodesian chrome. considerably weakened in recent months by the MPLA victory in Angola, with the involvement of Cuban troops frontier with and Russian supplies, and more importantly by Portugal granting independence to Mozambique. The new regime in Mozambique has rtow closed the Rhodesia also, depriving them of access -to its railroad and its ports. While the Smith regime would normally turn to South Africa, its neighbor, for help, that nation is reluctant to jeopardize its already poor relations with Black Africa. While South Africa could ignore Black Africa’s dislike in past years, the former Portugese colonies that insulated it from the rest of the continent are now suddenly independent and ruled by Black leftists. There is also a growing possibility that Mozambique may formally join the fight against Rhodesia, a fight conducted by guerillas operating out of Mozambique for the past several years. Rhodesia’s 430G-man Blacks screwed Civil rights taken for granted by most Americans do not apply to Black Rhodesians. They do not have the right to vote; the right to travel is rigidly restricted; there is little protection in the way of labor laws; and while they have a theoretical right to education, they have to pay substantial sums chromiuih'exports (a major scctot of money for even elementary of the economy there) and its education, and that education is dependence on foreign oil. abysmal in quality.

Kenya’s Foreign Minister, in announcing the policy change, said that the continuance of white rule there is a far greater danger to Africa than any fear of Soviet expansion. It is this attitude among African nations that is the real Kissinger’s target of new belligerency toward Cuba (he isn’t being nearly so nasty to the Soviet Union, which was also involved in Angola, because of their much larger size and strength). The U.S. government, after decades of or Tuesday supporting European imperialists in the Third World, has found itself unwilling to back liberation movements even as their impending victories become clear, and this is causing severe problems in Washington. Kissinger: Shut up! The State Department, being mostly made up of good liberals, would probably like to back progressive capitalist regimes in Africa. In real life, however, the is between backing reactionaries (usually white) and backing socialists a choice the U.S. government pretends to choice — ignore. If the U.S. government backed liberation movements in the Third World instead of aiding their enemies, perhaps it might have some moral standing to attack Cuba and the Soviet Union for interfering militarily in Africa. Given the U.S. government’s propensity for backing the wrong people in the Third World, however, Dr. Kissinger should pull in his horns while he still has some credibility left. ������������������������ *OKH! -WE REALIZE WE MADE A MISTAKE* * * WE'RE NOW SELLING * * * * "THE BOOK" for * * $2.00 Buy one at any of the 3 IRC stores.

Animal products ar$ used to manufacture clothing, perfume, cosmetics, shampoo, and even toothpaste. Many species of animals, especially the higher mammals, arc sentient beings who suffer enormously by the pain insensitive human beings inflict upon them. In a society that -often condones, justifies, or takes for granted needless slaughter of living things, many Americans simply do not think about the problems caused by the mistreatment of animals, problems that affect the ecological balance and create unnecessary misery for the animals as well. War on wildlife Plutarch said, “sport should be jo’yful /?a//y and between playmates who are merry on both sides.” Yet while hunters and environmentalists debate the pros and cons of wildlife management, one thing remains clear that hunting has been the sole reason for the extinction or near extinction of hundreds of animal species. In his book Mankind: Our Incredible War on Wildlife, Geveland .Amory states: In the case of literally dozens and dozens of animal species, hunting has been not just “a major factor" in the endangerment but the only major factor... These species include such strange “game” as the giant armadillo, the Indochinese bar gibbon, and the glacier bear the latter’s “reasons for decline being listed in the U.S. Endangered Species Act as “over-hunting as a curio.” The list also include such prize “trophies" as the grizzly bear, the Bali tiger, the rhino, the snow leopard, aitd the giant otter. Hunting as the only major factor is also credited with the endangerment of a wide variety of stag, deer, silcas, yaks, gazelles, antelopes, ibexes, etc. As for animals for which hunting is listed as not “the only major factor, hut a major factor virtually all the Endangered Species are so includeil.

The odds are much better chance of animal, which has a . ” - “ - being killed or wounded than getting away Hunter control At present, most state conservation departments are controlled by the hunters. Thus, wildlife management consists of ensuring that there will be a surplus ,of animals to shot, kill or “harvest." When a surplus of animals is evident, hunters argue that they help trim the herds and prevent what would otherwise be a mass starvation of a particular species of animals. They ignore alternatives such as the relocation of females to areas which are underpopulated. They also ignore that many animals are wounded during hunting season. Adding the number of wounded animals to the number who might starve then equals double the misery! It has been estimated that five to ten deer are crippled for every one killed with a bow and arrow. The Department of the Interior estimates that each year 2'A million ducks are also in the U.S. A Michigan crippled Department of Conservation count reportedly found 30,000 out of 74,000 deer “had died slowly from hunting wounds.” In addition to hunters who kill for food, the trophy hunters who seek out the healthiest, biggest animals to display on their mantel pieces. for jobs A series of career seminars have been set up for the next few weeks by the University Placement Office.

The Spectrum Page seven . �i(n6 Editorial Undergraduate and graduate students alike will have the opportunity to vote this week on whether to participate in a SUNY-wide strike to protest budgetary cutbacks and fee increases. In light of these rederenda, the Student Association and the Coalition to Fight Cutbacks have jointly organized a series of teach-ins to inform interested persons on the nature of the cuts and their ramifications, on public supported higher education. The fight to restore money so desperately needed to the SUNY budget at this stage is by no means a fruitless one, even though the legislature has already approved the state budget for the 1976—77 fiscal year. Hope still lies in either the supplemental budget or a special budgetary sessions of the legislature as long as officials in Albany can be made to see the crisis situation in which they have left the SUNY system. Naturally, any strike to oppose government-inflicted retrenchment ins public higher education would have the greated impact if students at every SUNY campus, with the support of their respective faculty, staff and administration, joined together in a united, well, thought-out effort. Yet, it would be a waste of time for students to accept blindly such a strike if they are ignorant of the facts at hand. We therefore ask members of the University community to take advantage of the budget forums that will take place this week and learn exactly what the state-wide ruckus is all about. Thpn, hopefully, students will realize the importance of voting yes to the proposed student strike. Only those who educate themselves about the problem can hope to save their education. Cmon people now Since its inception eleven years ago, the Community Action Corps (CAC) has let some fresh air into the lives of thousands of young people in need. Once again, it is looking for the indispensible element upon which its effectiveness rests volunteers. CAC provides a constructive and creative outlet for students who feel that classroom training alone is confining and want to work for social causes. Over the years, it has expanded to include more than 50 programs that fall under such headings as Health Care, Education, Drug and Youth Counseling, Senior Citizen Services, Legal and Welfare Rights, and others. The Human Sexuality Center, NYPIRG, Family Planning, Sunshine House, and the Self-Help Clinic are just a few of the organizations that were launched by CAC. In addition, CAC continues to undertake new projects every year. Environmental action, Foodstamp Outreach, and Buffalo Women Against Rape are just a few of the newer programs that were established to meet a growing need. Eleven years have seen great strides in CAC's scope and effectiveness. With so many projects, there is surely enough variety to suit every kind of interest. CAC is an opportunity for those who sit around and bitch about how bad things are to do something about it. CAC needs volunteers badly, and is appealing to student to get involved.

CSA is an association for the Chinese students, that is all types, from Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore and those born here, which means that the range of interest is quite wide. However, I have discovered that the candidates in the Service Party are prejudiced and going to ignore this fact. I overheard that one of the candidates in this party believed Chinese to be those of Mainland China and emphasis should be made on the importance of this into the community. But what about us, the people from Taiwan or even those American born Chinese? If one candidate feels this way. Pm sure the whole party feels this way loo. Already there is a rift between the Chinese students, Cantonese and Mandarin. If they „ persist in this attitude, they are asking for mote dissension and perhaps cause a separate club for the Taiwan people. Another factor I believe is important is that the party hasn’t campaigned much at all. It, seems one person is doing all the wbrk and the rest of the party is just pulling off the votes through their popularity. What kind of an organization is this? Is unactive, this an indication of the future unorganized, ununited? A couple of the candidates are not humble. Although I do not know them personally, the impression 1 got when I conversed with them is that they think they know a lot and can do it all. I detected a little pushiness when I found that one of the candidates did nof want to run for the party but was forced to. This is not good or healthy for CSA. I am afraid that if this party gets elected, unless it changes its attitudes, it will jeopardize the Chinese Student Association and kill it in the future. — John I'mix �Tenure reconsideration Editor’s note: The following letter, dated March 19, 1976, was sent to President Robert Ketter. Dr. Ketter. We strongly disagree with the. decision -that tenure not be granted to Susan J. Depew, an assistant professor in the Department of Medical Technology. We feel that this would be a great loss to the University and its future students. Her ability as a teacher, her personal interest in her students and her willingness ter provide them with extra help when needed qualify her as an exceptional teacher. We protest the granting if tenure solely on the basis of an instructor’s publications, ignoring teaching effectiveness. Research is important, but it should not be the only function of a teacher. In particular, ill a small department such as Medical Technology, the faculty rather than the graduate students carry most of the burden of the teaching load. Hence if they are .to be effective instructors they have less time to devote to research. We feel that if it is a question of an increase in publications vs. an increase in teaching effectiveness, the latter should be given equal if not greater consideration than the former in the {granting of tenure. We urge the reconsideration of this matter, since it is apparent that teaching ability was not taken into proper consideration in the decision regarding Susan Depew’s tenure. • Thank you. 80 concerned students of The Department of Medical Technology Master's program Hues V«.

We would like to mention also that the library program at Geneseo, which proudly claims a history of seven decades, has an outstanding placement record and supplies well-trained librarians and information specialists to ended in 1969. He, To the Editor. A recently published article in The Spectrum has been brought to my attention. It is an account by Mr. Charles Greenberg of a meeting in protest of the recommendation by the President’s Academic Planning Committee to “diminish” the School of Information and Library Studies (SILS) at Buffalo. In this interesting report, the author quotes Daniel Schabert, President of the Student Representatives of SILS, who described the Academic Planning Committee Report as inaccurate and misleading. The very same statement by Mr. Schabert could qualify as misleading as to the status of our graduate program in Library and Information Science here, in Geneseo. Mr. Schabert seems to suggest that the library science program in Geneseo libraries within and outside New York State. We would very much appreciate it if you could print in The Spectrum this note which would definitely clarify Mr. Schabert’s statement. L. Kaldor Dean School of Library and Information Science Ivan MFC speaks out To the Editor. The Millard Fillmore College Student Association representing the 4,600 students enrolled in the evening division of this University adds its support to the protest against budget reductions levied on the educational system in the state. As mature adult students, voters, property owners, taxpayers and workers in Buffalo and Western New York, we pay for our education taxation and tuition. advisors, Reduction in faculty, course etc. reduces proportionately, the opportunity for students of any age to pursue an education beyond through xiigh school. Many of our students hold responsible jobs in the community and are seeking to increase their potential. The balance are attempting to obtain an education which will afford them the same opportunity. In both instances, we are supporting the local economy and this University. An increase in our tuition in tandem with fewer academic provisions defies logical explanation in a society which prefers the “educated” employee. We, therefore, endorse an orderly and intelligent refutation of the inequities now confronting us. Phyllis President Schaffner M.F.C.S.A. - r Bigoted remarks I S!fV : Building sand castles To the Editor: I was shocked and greatly disturbed to read the sentiments expressed in Douglas Damoth’s letter in the Monday March 22 The Specthim. One does not expect such blatantly bigoted remarks to appear in a University publication. Josephine Wise Computer Science I’m writing in response to The Grump inMonday’s The Spectrum. It really hit home. I was in a relationship which naturally (?) ended in January. The scab hasn’t even begun to form yet. I even tried taking answers to lunch but they only confused me more, making me want to be closer to John (that’s his name). Everytime 1 see him I want to be how we were but refrain my actions. It’s so hard to just be friends. St Joseph's table To the Editor: Will The Spectrum print anything? Monday it printed this letter from Douglas Damoth: “1 wish to thank the people who made it possible for me to not attend classes in Hayes Friday, St. Joseph’s holiday. Their method was in ' the best Italian tradition.” First of all just who in Mr. Damoth’s mind made it impossible to get into Hayes Hall last Friday? Does he mean the protesters or the security forces, or both? Perhaps he can’t decide just who his enemy is. when he took aim it Regardless, this much is clear was the Italians who got hit as he attempts to make some wit out of the situation. This .at tempt and The Spectrum's acceptance of it shows more reflex than reflection, really, and all are forgiven. Why should the forced closing of a building be considered particularly Italian when the Czechs throw people out windows? But seriously, the kind of assumptions on which these little jokes rest can hurt more than overtly malicious attacks on people’s identities. It is the open house of the St. Joseph’s table that is in the best Italian tradition. This observance is one of the'surprises Buffalo has held forme. I have ehjoyed seeing it become more popular each year and spread among non-Italians. May Mr. Damoth find himself a place at the table next year. — - — Robert Wise Is It Building Sand Castles ? To the Editor. J My situation is different from yours though. I wish he would become friendly with another girl because at least that would be a reason for us to have changed our relationship. As it is, I have none. For a week (back in January) he was acting strange and then he told me that things were confusing and he didn’t want our relationship to continue as it was. I tried to be mature to his wishes and said OK. The next morning it hit me (and hard). Talks are useless because 1 keep ending up with a greater feeling to get together and he doesn’t. Why? 1 keep asking mySelf, “What was our four months together anyway?” I feel like a donkey being led around by a carrot just out of my reach. I’ve never been in such a situation and I don’t want to be. I’ve tried every alternature on my own to forget him but they don’t work. The only answer seems to be him but he’s made it absolutely clear that anythihg between us is out of the question. All I’m left with is time and waiting, waiting and more waiting. Every day hurts so much from waiting because I don’t even know what I’m waiting for. Reading your article relieved me to know I’m not being silly and that I’m not the only one faced with the most perplexing emotion known to man, love. This emotion holds extreme power that most people don’t realize. I know that I never realized it. My confusion has hurt others and ruined a possibly beautiful relationship. Now I’ve been hurt and can say that if doesn’t feel so good. I don’t want to hurt others or myself. Maybe the matureness is not breaking up calmly, but understanding another person by giving your total self and keeping together. That means that if you’re going to give at all, the relationship is so much better if you’re giving your best without being scared or confused. This is pretty risky to any individual so it’s better to look before you leap. Love is pretty strong. I wrote a poem which brings out the strength of this emotion. When the time glasses sands have passed through love, and the grains left behind towers to a mound, on the top waits a damsel for her galant knight, but he never arrives and she boils of why in her Fantasy world. A Fantasy world. It’s a Fantasy world. Once upon a time the glass was full and a knight with intentions of live for today came to her life and she warily trusted herself away, but he opened the funnel and the grains fell till he left, so she creams on the sand in a fantasy world. A fantasy world. It’s a fantasy world. So die waits oil the beach where they once laughed building castles of a love that she never really had. With shaky hands a tower is born, then she stares at the ocean in the silent morn of her fantasy world. A fantasy world It’s a fantasy world. The days brought waves and the castle drowned All that’s left are tiny grains scattered across the ground. Guilt curiosity brings him back to search her home and while walking on the beach, he finds her dead on the sand in a fantasy world. A Fantasy world. It’s a Fantasy world.

Bob Sinkewkz Spectrum Staff Writer The Buffalo Coalition to Defeat Senate Bill I (S.l) held an informational meeting for the general public last Tuesday night at the North Buffalo Food Coop. S.l is the 799-page document originally intended as an update of the 1909 Federal Criminal Code which is currently in effect and contains a number of contradictions and redundancies. Coalition representatives Rich Greenberg and Eric Lehman discussed how S.l would affect our daily lives if it is implemented by Congress. Essentially, the Coalition concurrs with former Senator Sam Ervin, who said, “S.l is simply atrocious and would establish what is essentially a police state.” Formulation of S.l began when President Lyndon Johnson established the National Commission on Reform of the Criminal Laws, chaired by former California Governor Pat Brown, in 1966. After five years of study, the bi-partisan commission’s three Senators, 3 Representatives, three Judges, Federal three members-at-large and 14-member advisory committee The bill also permits conviction of a person for a crime he has been induced to commit by an undercover police agent, and could institute penalties as stiff as the death sentence for publicizing “national defense information.” Life imprisonment or death could also be levied “in time of war or during a national defense emergency” for- collecting or communicating such information with the knowledge that it “may be used to prejudice the safety or interest of the United States or to the advantage of a foreign power.” Freedom restricted The exposure of government corruption by a federal employee or a news reporter could also subject the individual to this law, Greenberg said. Daniel Ellsberg, Tony Russo, the New York Times and the Beacon Press would have all been subject to prosecution, he added. Part of the bill is a redraft of the 1940 Smith Act which dealt with sedition, and which provides harsh penalties for inciting “other persons to engage in imminent - such as food manufacturers, and clothing industries and even universities.

The part of the bill dealing with drug offenses states that possession of any amount of marijuana no matter how small would subject the defendant to 30 days in jail and/or a $10,000 fine. A second offense would increase the prison term to six months with the same fine. lawless reported that has Senator Mike Mansfield introduced a proposal to remove 12 of the more controversial parts of the bill and attach them to other bills. . In the meantime, Greenberg said the original “S.l” would probably be changed to a new number to diffuse the opposition and confuse people. Presently, local Congressman Henry Nowak said he does not know enough about S.l to comment on it, and Senator Jack Kemp declined to say anything. A more liberal bill for criminal reform has been justice introduced in the House of INTERESTED IN: BACKPACKING? .Vague wording control section gun The provides an automatic one year jail term for illegal possession of a firearm.

Only three members dissented from the majority report, including Senator Ervin. Nixon didn’t like it However, two developments drew attention and criticism to S.l. Firstly, the dissenting committee members submitted a highly critical minority report on the bill to the Senate, and secondly, Nixon, who was not totally satisfied with it, had Attorney General John Mitchell proposal rewrite the and introduce it as Senate Bill 1400. However,'the two bills were soon consolidated, and reintroduced in January 1975 as the “Criminal Justice Reform Act of 1975” or S.l again.

Being a lesbian does not always make you a feminist, one spokeswoman explained. In its earlier days, the Women’s Movement had shunned lesbians, resulting in what one woman described as “purges.” Lesbians were considered on the “wrong side” of the fence .and educating “straight” (heterosexual) women became a primary goal. Each of the three spokeswomen related her personal “coming out” experiences. One explained her desire to dispel the myths about lesbians, as well as wanting to “share the joy” that she had found. Another described “coming out” as a “continuing process.” Lesbians are always “coming out” to friends, to family, and sometimes to the people they meet at work, she said. - ' ‘Girl next door?’ Problems in the lesbian movement are not related to men, but rather to other people not letting lesbians relate to women. Women are lesbians not because they hate men, but because they love women, one woman explained. Lesbians are seeking power over their own lives, not power over other people, she said. The active lesbian community in most places is quite small and meeting other lesbians can be difficult, especially if you don’t drink, one woman said. However, the Gay Community Services Center is helping to provide an alternative to gay bars. The center, run jointly by the Sisters of Sappho and the Mattachine Society, organizes dances, camping trips and the like. Currently the>Sisters of Sappho are involved in organizing “Gay Pride Week.” The celebration, scheduled for mid-June, will include dances, workshops, and a weekend trip to Alleghany State Park. yours!

(CPS) — Watching the walls melt Another Guinness world record hit the (CPS) dust this year when a former Ohio State University — student stayed awake for 300 consecutive hours. The former record, held by a South African housewife, was an unbroken 282 hours and S3 minutes of wakefulness. A disappointed Eric Steed climbed into bed after the 12 and a half day ordeal claiming that he hadn’t [got) to the other side yet.” Steed did not elaborate on what the other side was but he said his reasons for undergoing prolonged sleeplessness was that he was “curious about other states of awareness.” Steed wasn’t able to get much accomplished during his 300 waking hours other than stare at a live television set and drive around while playing with his citizen’s band radio. He tried to read and write but after a few days he gave lip on those activities. Warmer weather may bring Steed out for another try at breaking his own record. “I feel confined doing this in the winter,” he said. “Other than going for a drive in may car, I’ve been watching the same walls melt for a long time. It gets a little boring.” Native honored training (CPS) by Indians, forgotten in spring A Massachusetts researcher has come up with the answer to the never-ending question of who is baseball’s greatest player. The answer is not Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb or Ted Williams but rather Sockalexis. Louis Louis Sockalexis? Louis Sockalexis. Sockalexis, according to researcher Emmanuel by Levine, many was considered of : his contemporaries as the ballplayer’s ballplayer. “Louis — I ■f-VV r • * Sockalexis had the most brilliant career of any man who ever played the game,” said legendary Detroit Tiger manager Hughie Jennings, who was Ty Cobb’s boss from 1907—1921. “He should have been the greatest player of all time,” continued Jennings, “greater than Cobb, Wagner, Lajoie, Hornsby or any of the other men who made history for the game.” Sockalexis played for the old Cleveland Spiders in the National League from 1897—1899. An outfielder, he once held an opponent to a triple by pegging the catcher a perfect, 414 foot strike. At his first major league time at bat, “Deerfoot of the Diamond,” as he was called, smacked a curve ball far into the Polo Ground’s bleacher?, jyst the first of many extra base hits. Sockalexis was a full-blooded Indian of Maine’s Penobscot tribe and that fact almost prevented him from ever donning a baseball uniform. His father, angered at his son’s hankering for “the sport of white man," paddled his canoe down the Atlantic Coast to Washington to ask Great White Father Grover Cleveland permission to make his son a chief. The strategy was that Louis’ time would be taken up with affairs of the tribe. But Louis sniffed out the plot and by the time his father returned, he had left for Holy Cross College and its baseball team. Sockalexis’ career was cut short in 1898 when his ankle was crushed while saving a baby trapped in a runaway carriage. In 1915, the American League’s new Cleveland franchise named their team the Indians in Deerfoot of the Diamond’s honor. Chip off the old lid gets high honor (CPS) Guess which person currently hard at work on the campaign trail has been given the first — “American Weed Seed Award?” Jimmy Carter no. Definitely not George Wallace. Jerry Ford you’re close. The winner is Jack Ford, the President’s 23-year-old son who is - barnstorming primary state campuses explaining his father to college audiences. The award was handed out by The Daily Beaver, a monthly publication out of Okemos, Michigan, which caters to head shops and the dope paraphernalia industry. “The honor is accorded to the person who has done the most, either on purpose or by accident, to bring legalization of marijuana to accomplishment,” says Daily Beaver co-publisher Thom Hartman.

Buffalo center Sam Pellom tops nation in rebounding ' by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor The basketball season hadn’t started, but Buffalo center Sam Pellom was already getting psyched. He jokingly predicted he would lead the nation in scoring with an average of 50 points per game. That was an ironic prediction, indeed, since Pellom never even came close to the NCAA scoring leaders. All he did was lead the country in once again baseball to America Weather has brought rebounding.

Sports Quiz on Pellom’s part, since at 6-8, he would probably be asked to play forward. Although difficult, it would not be impossible Pellom to adjust to playing forward since that for was his high school position. Fellom has been working on playing forward since the season ended. “If that letter* (of invitation) comes, I’m going to play and I’m going to work, work, work.” Good fortune The reason Pellom decided to come to Buffalo to play basketball is a story in itself and it makes Richardson look like the luckiest recruiter ever. Richardson has not had a successful recruiting season, but while traveling through Leland in the summer of 1974, he received a tip about Pellom. 2. The Mets gave up Nolan Ryan, of course, but they also sacrificed outfielder Leroy Stanton and minor leaguers Don Rose and Francisco Doing better “I don’t know what the reason is (for his Estrada. improvement), other than he knows he’s the tallest 3.

The starting pitch ;r We had better people playing with him that had to in Red Sox victory? Babe Ruth. help.” According to Pellom, that was only part of the reason for his improvement. He cited as an example forward Sam Robinson, who was playing his first year at Buffalo. “Sam helped,” Pellom observed. “If he felt 1 was going to get the rebound, he would go down for the break.” Pellom did the same when he felt Robinson was going to get the rebound, and this isn’t just kid stuff led to some extra fast break buckets for Pellom. However, the main reason for his improvement.

Goodyear L Page twelve - First in nation Pellom’s improvement was obvious in Buffalo’s early games, as he scored 28 points and hauled in 22 stray shots at Syracuse, but it wasn’t until the beginning of January that Pellom’s name appeared at the top of the NCAA rebounding list. “1 thought it would last a week or so, and then someone else would take over,” Richardson said. “With the competition we play, 1 didn’t expect him to be leading at the end of the season.” Pellom’s attitude was a little different than Richardson’s. “1 knew I was leading for the first semester, so 1 figured I could keep it up," he said. “1 felt the pressure after the first semester, because everyone knew I was leading the nation, so they were trying to stop me.” But they couldn’t stop Pellom, and people around the country began to look up and notice him. “Evidently, he must have shown somebody something,” Richardson remarked. “That’s what a good schedule can do for you.” Pellom was named Honorable Mention All-America by the Associated Press, and was nominated to be invited to the upcoming U.S. Olympic team tryouts. (One hundred and fifty players are nominated, to be invited, but only 50 receive the honor. The actual invitations have not been announced.) Pellom would jump at an invitation to the Olympic team tryouts. “That’s everybody’s dream to make the Olympic team,” he said. But making the Olympic team would probably require ajot of work - . The Spectrum . Monday, 29 March 1976 After watching Pellom play, he invited Pellom to come to Buffalo, and Pellom quickly accepted. Pellom had been out of high school for several years, and until then, had no intentions of going to college. “1 had no idea he would be that good,” Richardson stated. “I just knew that we needed a player that size.” Even before Pellom played his first game for Buffalo, he was referred to as “the franchise.” He surpassed everyone’s expectations even in his freshman year, and he has been the key to Buffalo’s success for two years. Better still? Despite this and Pellom’s national rebounding title, both he and Richardson agree that there is room for improvement. “1 would like Sam to be more physical,” Richardson said. Pellom feels he can be more physical, but added, “That’s not my game.” Even so, Pellom said he would probably work on that over the summer. Another thing Pellom has been reluctant to do is drive towards the hoop, but that’s been due to the referees, according to Pellom. They don’t call blocking fouls when a player steps in front of a driving player, but instead call a charging foul. Pellom recalled that in one game, twice he drove and made baskets, but twice he was called for an offensive foul. After that, he limited his offense to shooting from the outside. “We try to bring the ball closer to the basket because of a player like Sam,” Richardson said. As Pellom continues to improve on offense he might get his wish that the Bulls run more plays designed to get him the ball. But in the meantime, he’s going to continue working on his skills this summer, whether or not he makes the Olympic team. It’s almost frightening to think what would happen if the nation's leading rebounder continued to improve. �� Hockey predictions forfinalplayoffs by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer As the National Hockey League’s regular season draws to a close, all of the knowledgeable scribes around the circuit start to make their final playoff predictions. So, after carefully keeping tabs on the NHL all year long, this scribe around the circuit will make his final judgements too. The easiest place to start would be with the top clubs in each division, who draw automatic byes in the first round and advance directly to the semi-finals by virtue of their first place finishes. In the Wales Conference, we find Boston and Montreal sitting atop their respective divisions. The Bruins, after sagging through much of the early campaign made two big deals, and zoomed to the head of the class in the Adams Division. First they made the famed Halloween Day trade with the hapless New York Rangers, shipping star center Phil Esposito and sometimes-star Carol Vadnais to the Blueshirts in exchange for star center Jean Ratelle, sometimes star Brad Park, and future star Joe Zanussi. While Park has been sidelined for the last part of the season, Ratelle is playing better than ever and leads the B’s in scoring with 94 points. He has also returned linemates Bobby Schmautz and Johnny Bucyk to the lofty scoring heights they had grown accustomed to in recent years. Although dealt a blow the other night when Gregg Sheppard hurt bis foot, (he Bruins were still deep enough up front to compensate for the loss of their heady center. Defense, however, once a Boston forte, may be tire weak link in the Bruins’ Stanley Cup drive. They are minus both Bobby Orr and Brad Park, and subsequently they receive very little firepower from the blue line. Dallas Smith, Darryl Edestrand, Hank Nowak and Gary Doak are all capable defensively, with Smith leading the corps. In the nets, the Bostonians are tight if nothing else. Neither Gilles Gilbert nor Gerry Cheevers are great, but Cheesy shuts the door in the playoffs. The Bruins picked up their former star goalie from struggling, the Cleveland Crusaders of the WHA to bolster their Cup chances, and he may be the man to do it. Canadiens favored There isn’t a whole lot to say about the Montreal Canadiens. They are solid every way but up, and it is virtually impossible to find a flaw on the squad. Les Habitants sport the league’s top scorer, Guy LaFleur, as well as the Vezina Trophy leading goalies Kenny Dryden Bunny and Larocque. Surrounding LaFleur on offense are Peter Mahovlich, Yvan Coumoyer, Jacques Lemaire and Steve Shutt, stars all of them. The Habs are the odds on favorites to win the Cup, and their 54—11 10 record supports the — odds. In the Campbell Conference, defending champion Philadelphia Flyers have clinched the title, and are prepping for post-season play. The Flyers never really had too much trouble this season, in spite of the fact that ace goalie Bernie Parent missed the first 63 games with a neck injury. Wayne Stephenson performed admirably in Parent’s absence, and newcomer Gary Inness gives the Flyers great depths between the -pipes. Bobby Clarke, everybody’s most valuable player last year (and probably this year) is the number one player in the league today as his linemates Reggie Leach and Billy Barber will attest. Leach has SS goals and 25 assists (79 points). Barber has 43 and 59 to total 102, and King Clarke sdpports his 30 goals with 80 assists. The Flyers lost Rick MacLeish for the season in October, but Mel Bridgeman and Orest Kindrachuk have combined for 40 goals to ease the burden. Overall, the Flyers have the best offense in the league, a super defense led by the and brothers, Watson solid goaltending, all of which should lead to the Stanley Cup finals. Black Hawks underdogs In the NHL’s Smythe Division, the Chicago Black Hawks are in immniimmmiii VITA Hours: Monday, 10-8 Tuesday, 10-2 &4-8 Wednesday, 10-8 Thursday, 10-2 Friday 10-12 &2-4 VITA— Volunteer Income Tax Assistance Program is in operation now until April 15th.

Bobby Orr enjoyed this sip from the Stanley Cup in drive for another NHL championship. first place due to a lack of talent surrounding them. The Hawks would not even make the playoffs if they were in another division, let alone win a title. The only thing Chicago has had this season is Tony Esposito, who is working his pads off once again. Poor Tony-O hasn’t had enough help from anybody this year, and it doesn’t look like the Red Cross is going to provide him with emcxgency aid for the post-season The Hawks should get their wings clipped in the early competition. rounds. Simply finishing first does not automatically permit a team to take horn Lord Stanley’s silver platter, and thire are eight other teams to battle the division leaders. To begin with, there are the hometown Buffalo Sabres who have a good chance to go all the way. Despite frequent listless performances, the Sabres have a lot of talent, and can do the job if they play at their best. The only possible problem the locals may have is in the goal, where neither Gerry Desjardins nor Al Smith have a lot of playoff experience. Last year, Desi fell apart in the finals, although he has been fine this season. If the goalies do their job, the Cup may sit in the Aud. Wes tops in New York Directly on the Sabres’ heels are the upstart New York Islanders. The only good hockey team in the Big Apple now, the Isles have proven themselves to be one of the most balanced squads in the league from goal to goal. In the nets, little Glenn “Chico” Resch is the number one netminder in the league this year (1.89 average, 7 shutouts in 39 games), with Billy Smith backing him up. The offense is blended among three lines, and the defense is spearheaded by the Potvin brothers. The Islanders can do it all, if they overcome their inconsistencies. 1972. and his health may be a key factor in his Bruins' semi-finals are finished, it will probably be the Canadiens and Flyers in the final round. If that’s the case, look for Montreal to win it and spoil the Flyers quest for a “hat trick” of Stanley Cups, because without a totally healthy Bernie Parent, Dryden could be the difference. The dark horse team here is the New York Islanders, who have a way of making things happen.

If the Penguins can overcome mediocre goaltending by Michael Plasse and Bob Taylor, they could cause trouble. Baby-faced Pierre Larouche and veteran Jean Pronovost are in the top five scorers, and they lead a very potent offense. The Maple Leafs are more balanced than spectacular, but they tend to be lifeless. Wayne Thomas is good in the goal, and Borje Salming adds savvy to a nondescript defense, but the offense is somewhat suspect. The Leafs could prove to be spoilers, if they come up with consistently good offensive performances. After all the quarter-finals and Monday, 29 March 1976 The Spectrum .

The students departed Haas Lounge and marched to Hayes Hall at the urging of a woman from the Revolutionary Student Brigide, the last student speaker s in a lively forum where angry, questioners often sarcastic confronted Ketter for an hour. The protestors left the Annex, the school’s which houses Admissions and Records offices, after reading their list of demands to television reporters. Ketter threatened to have them removed by the City Police. Plainclothed Campus Secutiry officers stood by during the sit-in but did not intervene. During the forum, Ketter responded quickly, calmly, and often tediously, but revealed little new information. Most of the questioners identified themselves as members of a campus political y organization or club. Several spoke as members of a College. Some were Student Association (SA) officers. ' Hayes Annex is occupied briefly; Ketter takes on students in Haas Lounge Mild bemusement of the Meanwhile,“~Tljost students looked on in mild cheering, booing, bemusement or groaning in mock sympathy with Ketter’s responses; once or twice the tension was broken by laughter. Ketter was nonplussed throughout. The forum was arranged by SA following last Friday’s incident at Hayes Hall where one student was arrested. Ketter said a list of this University’s retrenchment must be sent to Albany by May 1. Before that, he said, recommendations will be made by the University Vice Presidents on what cuts will be made in their areas. Ketter noted, as he has in the past, that the cuts in the University budget were made by the state legislature, not SUNY or the University “You can kick and scream and make all the noise you want,” he said. “But the check machine is not in Buffalo” The University needed a $6 million increase over this year’s budget to maintain itself at the It received a current level. S500.000 increase instead. Ketter said 143 positions at the University had been eliminated by Governor Hugh Carey. — when the state approved special emergency aid Cor New York City last year. Ketter added that most SUNY money comes from tuition and room rent, which Is set by the Money matters Before questions. Ketter SUNY Board of Trustees. But lie briefly outlined what he said were said the Governor can pressure the the only four times money can be Trustees to raise tuition and room as rent, and had in fact done that appropriated by the state part of a deficit budget for the this year. Asked point blank by former previous year in the first or President Frank Jackalone if week of as SA January; part second of normal operating budget in he (Ketter) would send a telegram March; in a supplemental budget to the Trustees at their meeting in sometime later; or in a special New York that afternoon urging financial session of the legislature them not to raise tuition and called by the Governor, as was the room tent. Ketter declined. But case — T he said he would be happy to send increase tuition, more positions a telegram saying it was 'would have to be cut.

Regional meetings “Nothing.” several students Ketter said he favered a student request being made shouted in reply. Several questioners criticized around the state that the Trustees of the hold regional meetings to discuss the interim report President’s Committee on matters with students, but said he did not believe the “time frame" Academic Planning (PCAP) for its would allow the hearings to be singling out programs considered held before the tuition increases innovative and beneficial to were passed by the Trustees. He minority members. Ketter repeated his position added that if the Trustees did not “budget document.” But Social Science College instructor Robin Weeks was unconvinced. The PCAP is a conscious political decision, a racist attack on education,” and demonstrates “a radically conservative interpretation of affirmative action,” he insisted. Conflict of question Many students speaking at the forum pointed out the apparent contradiction of , increases in profits for big banks and corporations at the same time education was being public trimmed. Many placed the blame f6r the SUNY cutbacks on c.aptialism and the ruling class. One student asked Ketter if his sitting on the Board of Directors of Marine Midland bank, the largest in New York State, was not a conflict of interest. This was cheered loudly. Ketter said it was not because he had for a year and a half left the Marine Midland Board, examined the banks’ investments, and found no conflict. He added that University of Buffalo Presidents had sat on the Marine Midland Board since 1918. Throughout, students peppered Ketter with questions like, “Whose side are you on?” and “Where did you learn to pass the buck so well?” Ketter insisted that the best way students could help the University was to meet singly or in groups with area legislators. At one point, studetns asked if Ketter would take a cut in his yearly salary. “Certainly not,” he shot back. Among other things, Ketter said the eliminated office of Advisement Foreign Student would be restored under another name, that he favored student input on the Amherst Campus commerical development only in an advisory capacity, and that he would oppose any move by Comptroller Arthur Levitt to charge rent to Faculty Student Associations, which run food services, bookstores, and other operated services on state campuses. -Asking SA for money to go for a statewide Albany to demonstration for a campus-wide referendum on a student strike, and to sponsor, with others, a teach-in. —supporting a statewide strike, with specific date to be decided upon. -making State University students a higher priority in the state budget. —meeting with the Board of at this Trustees publicly University -granting general amnesty for all students arrested in campus demonstrations across the state.

At the State University College at Purchase, 40 students took over the school’s Administration building for seven days. Wednesday morning the students' left the building. A student Senate representative at Pruchase stated that, “The occupation ended in good faith that Board hearings would be held.” ' On Tuesday, Purchase students went on strike protesting the injunction against Fredonia State College students who also have occupied the administration building there. The strike lasted one only day, and ended Wednesday, when student open demands concerning hearings were met. A Purchase student said “the strike was not all that popular. In fact it was quite disorganized.” At Fredonia, students occupied the administration building for five days. Meanwhile, students got together in the Student Union organizing petitions to be sent to legislators. While tjiese meetings were held, the State Supreme Court in nearby Dunkirk ordered all students to leave the administration building. When only some of the students left the building, those remaining were told they would face expulsion. After the remaining students left the building, rallies on campus the week ■ continued throughout 'and a meeting wiD be set up ~' -T. _- >>, * *»* t Tuition and dormitory fees will increase at all SUNY schools next September.

Udall countered by saying America must admit its mistakes; “the war was wrong, just plain dead wrong.” > War an issue Udall asserted that the war is not just a “has-been.” It took a decade of opposition, a decade of anguish and debate to bring American involvement to an end. A candidate’s voting record on the war shows us what we can expect from him in the future. Will we continue our cold war tactics or adopt new policies?” Udall detailed the Pentagon’s superfluous and wasteful spending policies. He cited the development of the now-defunct Safeguard anti-ballistic missile (ABM) system as a classic example of a Pentagon pink elephant. “This turkey cost $6 billion and when it was finally finished it was operational for one day. The Safeguard system was closed down in accordance with terms of the U.S.-Soviet Strategic Arms Limitations Talks (SALT) which limited ABM deployment.

We need a nation that has its head on straight.” * Foreign policy stand Udall maintained that the foreign policy and defense issues which divide Jackson and himself are “central and revealing.” Dismissing the seemingly broadly based appeal of Jimmy Carter, he said that we need rnore than just a smile from a man who could be the next president of the United States. ‘The campaign hasn’t told us much about Carter. I don’t swallow the premise that a candidate can first attract votes and then reveal his policies.” Udall made repeated references to Adlai Stevenson, a man whom he obviously admired very much. He described the New York primary as a referendum on the kind of America Stevenson envisioned. “That journey of 1000 leagues begins with a single step, so we must never neglect any work for peace, and never surrender to a creative or compassionate attitude.” Udall, 6’4” former pro-basketball player, is a very imposing figure.

Right now most political observers consider Henry Jackson to be the frontrunner in the primary two weeks away.

Congress has already trimmed the budget from S6.2 billion to billion. some veterans, accompanied by their families, picketed the federal Building in downtown Buffalo Wednesday morning to protest cuts in New guidelines Veterans are faced with the possible discontinuation of benefits ten years after they were discharged from the service. In many cases, the cutoff could hit a vet in the middle of his education, according to leaders of the march. The vets also protested new Veterans Administration guidelines which require benefit veteran’s educational benefits. demonstrators, The some carrying plac&rds, picket signs and the American flags, circled building at III West Huron for over two hours. The demonstration was co-sponsored by the Western New York Concerned Veterans Coalition (WNYCVC) and the of National Association Concerned Veterans (NACV). The rally coincided with the NACV National Convention in Denver this week. The demonstration was peaceful, although about 10 city police, regular armed guards, and several FBI agents patrolled the inside of the building. Rally organizers brought their demands to James Hooker, Regional Director of the Veterans Administration. Afterward, Hooker told The Spectrum that complaints by the the demonstrators could not be - dispensing records schools improve to of veterans’ academic progress.

WNYCVC Chairman Id Serha read a letter he received from Congressman Jack Kemp, apologizing for not being able to attend the rally., but offering his support for the march. A meeting has been tentatively set up between the VA. NACV and WNYCVC April 8 to discuss the issues and try to negotiate type some of agreement. WNYCVC members expressed doubt about the VA’s intentions, and said in a press release, “Because so many worthwhile vocational and On-the-Job programs have been eliminated, and now* with the Colleges being threatened, We seriously question whether the VA is really Working in the veteran’s best interest.” The crowd expressed their sentiments'in picket $igns which read: “Ford has a better idea; Screw the Vets,” “Hooker Lies Vets Suffer,” and “Sit On It, A spokesperson for the Office of Veterans Affairs here claimed that his office has neither the available facilities nor staff to meet these new requirements and that the Office of Admissions and Records is not geared to provide the necessary information. Powerless Hooker insisted that his office is powerless. “We, as local administrators, have no power over the decisions made in Congress.” Hooker explained that the State Approval Agency furnishes the data to the New Regional York Veterans Administration office, not to his office. Veterans Association President Pat Kelly charged that the procedure by which unreceived benefit checks are traced is being misused in the VA regional office in Buffalo. When contacted, the VA fills out an Educational Assistance Inquiry (EAI), or pink slip, he explained. After five days, this form should be placed, in the h?nds of the Regional Director. Then, on (he fifth day, the complaintant is called by the VA and told that his complaint is under investigation, after which they fill out another pink slip, and again is delayed five days. Kelly claimed these tactics can easily be continued until the delay is one month or more.

Social Services and they can’t afford to send their kids to centers without the funds.” Her immediate concern is whether SA will pass the budget proposal. SA Treasurer Carol Block has ambivalent feelings about the funding coming from SA. The student service is important and all students deserve the right to their education, she said.

CAC has already submitted a $10,000 budget proposal to the Student Association (SA) to procure funds for the center. Members of CAC are hopeful that the center will be acceptable to the administration if the budget is passed by SA. Lorenzetti declined comment as to whether the budget Would be passed, stating that he had not seen the proposal in its complete form. However, he did claim that the outcome of his committee’s decision would not be affected by the events that led to the demise of the Day Care Center last year. “The current proposal will stand on its own merits,” he said. Continually emphasizing that the circumstances are different than last year’s, Lorenzetti said that if, the budget is passed by SA, it will be necessary for him to determine whether the funding is approved under the mandatory fee guidelines.

"Diaspora" means a dispersion of' people, in this instance the African people scattered throughout the western world through the slave trade. Diaspora, The Experimental Performing Arts Company of Chicago, Illinois, strives to trace ca/ryovers of Africa in western arts forms and religions, and also the interrelationships of the art forms. They took you back to the center of the dispersion and using dance, music, film and various other art forms and media traced the pattern of the diaspora through history, the history of Black Art. Their concert, Rituals and Celebrations, began with Africa. The scene was set by a procession of figures in tribal costumes. A lone musician played woodwind instruments which were apparently of African origin. This was a "Ritual to Damballah." It featured interpretive dancing to woodwind instruments with an Africa flavor. Sacred slaves "Praises," a poem with music and dance expressed the confusion of religion as new gods are met and old ones foresaken. This led to a that was simply blues song called "Nomo-sacred force" but silence after the applaud, to the wanted overpowering. Everyone storm of emotion intimidated them. Boykin's poetic reading, "Links and Chains" was embellished beautifully by the dancing of Ernest Luis. They took you on a journey with Luis bound in imaginary chains which restricted his movement. Boykin’s poem became almost a chant of "links and chains, that's how we got here, that's just how we came. African people around the world are one in the same link and chain, link and chain . . ." Now we're in America, with a slide show of Black Art depicting the hatred and confusion and the mixed emotions of strangers in a strange land. The power of the paintings and sculpture flashed over and . over again so that we absorbed more emotion and confusion Finally a song "Oh Damballah, Come Damballah" climaxed and swelled and moved that emotion up within you, almost choking you. — .. Black dawn With this background laid down. Part Two of the performance concerned modern Black Art. First came a lively West Indian number with colorful costumes and lights. Next was a song "Circle of Time" using an animated art film of a circular dias(k>ra of light to take us on a mind journey, to hypnotize and set the stage for a message. There followed immediately a slide show on Black Art stressing it as a community event rather than a mass medium. The pieces shown were of modern black society and what's happening now in Black Art. Continuing in this area, a film of Dr. Martin Luther King and the Montgomery Bus Boycott was shown with a recording of Otis Redding's "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay" followed by a dance rendition of "Wake Up Everybody." At this point, I realized something peculiar. The scene was America, 1976, and yet felt like Africa before the European invasion. The essence was clearly there from over 500 years ago. Diaspora's final dance and music piece was "I Dreamed" a chanting song, an enchanting ritual very smoothly arranged and choreographed to make it irresistably compelling. An animation videotape closed out the program. Well placed Attendance at the concerts was poor and this was unfortunate for those who missed it as well as the performers. Diaspora was one of the most exciting and entertaining events on campus or off this year. It was one show that the Katharine Cornell Theatre suited perfectly. The theatre helped create a beneficial intimacy between the viewers and the performers. The lighting was perfect. Even the lightning flashed over the skylight as a storm brewed outside was right on time. Diaspora's "Rituals and Celebrations" showed what multi-media was designed for. It was a taste of the vast power that can come from an intelligent blending of the art forms. �'Wherever You Go . • / Material is unimaginative by Roberta Rebold f Spectrum Arts Staff Of the nearly 20 comedy skits comprising Wherever You Go You're There, the American Contemporary Theatre's most recent production, only one stands out as being original and amusing. Several others did have segments or lines that were giggle-provoking. The vast majority of these short acts ranged from being predictable at best to infantile at worst. The opening skit was a group of apparently snobbish people mingling at a cocktail party. They circulated around the stage with their noses in the air, periodically clearing their throats. One member of the group then sneezes and the other party-goers pounce on him and beat him unconscious. As I sat awaiting the punchline, the lights went out and the audience roared with laughter. The evening continued at about the same level for an hour and a half. Schlock au vin —Ostasnaver Those bad boys from bean town, the J.

The play used revised versions of old jokes too. out to eat in an expensive French A restaurant. They give the waitress their complicated order of several French delicacies with numerous additions ("add fried bananas and mayonnaise to mine please, miss"). The waitress yells into the kitchen, "Hey, Frankie, make it a number four." Old jokes do not belong in the Actors Center repertoire. It would be expected that a supposedly experimental theatre group would use more innovative material. The humor often seemed pointless. There was RECORDS one skit involving John F. Kennedy and his love-life, yet it was not effective political satire. Another short piece parodied a game show, "Loser pf the Day," where the contestants were a bored housewife, a transsexual and a cockroach-sized woman. The easily satirized absurdity of .TV game shows was not captured. The play's attempts at slapstick failed too. Scenes with people being hit over the head with pillows would make the Three Stooges roll in their graves. Tripe-cast Although the cast is fully competent, none could be singled out for giving an outstanding performance. They are energetic and appear to try hard to make a sucess of Wherever You Go You're There. There is really no fair way of evaluating this company, for they are all victims of their poorly written scripts. In all fairness, though, it must be noted that most of the audience responded positively, and difference in taste always exists.' The most objectionable aspect of the play's material was its unimaginativeness. Is it really necessary to use more "dumb Polish” or "ball crushing feminist" jokes? Besides not being terribly funny, these stereotypes are overused and simplistic. Wherever You Go was limp and lacking in substance. It possessed neither the craziness of a Mel Brooks, the intellectual appeal of a Woody Allen nor any definable character of its own.

Peter Gabriel, whose cryptic lyrics and elaborate stage costumes reached a peak with last year's The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway, has since left the group to pursbe an acting career, much to the dismay of his followers Although usually pegged as the man behind Genesis, Gabriel most often played himself down in interviews, insisting that their music was a group effort, and that no single member was any more important than any other. ' A Trick of the Tail, the first Genesis album without Gabriel, substantiates this claim, and is in fact a better album than its predecessor. The Lamb seemed, despite the singer's cries pf innocence, to be a one-man show, where dramatic fantasy and onstage impact were bought at the expense of musical achievement. The new album, although hardly a giant leap forward, has none of the filler material which marred the last, and seems to indicate that Genesis fs as good, if not better off, without their former lead singer. Drummer Phil Collirts has taken over as vocalist, and the Page six . The Spectrum . is uncanny he sounds more like Gabriel than Gabriel does himself. The classically-rooted keyboard work Tony of Banks is more predominant than ever, lending much of the quality which distinguishes Genesis from the many other bands of its type.

Steve Hackett and Mike R,,, herford (on guitar and bass, actively) are as proficient as filling out the band's lush result — — ai i aiigements perfectly. The material here, written by various combinations of the four but good, members, is unfortunately much of it is too reminiscent of earlier Genesis albums. "Robbery, Assault and Battery," for instance, is almost a pure remake of "The Battle of Epping Forest" from Selling England by, the Pound, although I like it better. "Dance on a Volcano," the album's opening cut, is pure Genesis alternating melodic choruses and strange verses backed by machine-like rhythm section interplay. The. acoustic song "Entangled" is probably the best on the album, and is one of the prettiest Genesis has ever done. The acoustic 12-string guitars of Hackett and Rutherford lend depth to Collins' overdubbed harmony vocals, and the the dream-world lyrics the eerie mood for Friday, 26 March 1976 — synthesizer-mellotron motif which ends the song. — "Squonk," also one of the album's better compositions, tells The Artpark Festival Chorus will perform in a music marathon at the tale of a mythical creature Artpark July 23—25.

It — - is no coincidence that some of the best "television" shows are actually cultural events that originate outside the medium and which would exist even without the pervasive presence of the camera's red light. In such fields as news, sports, drama and films, all the networks really have to do is "report" the event: aim the camera and microphone and stand back. (Then the word "medium" would define television itself not the quality of its programs.) Unfortunately, television goes to the "well" too often to leave it "enough alone." The industry is constantly taking "art" and making a "program" out of it a television program.

In the late fortldi, when 50 million Americans deserted movie theatres for their living rooms, Hollywood declared war on television. Realizing that this electronic "toy" that they had never taken seriously had become a threat to their existence, the major studios decreed that no Hollywood film could be shown on television and no film stars could appear in any programs. They even went so far as to make films featuring scenes ridiculing the "boob tube": in Happy Anniversary, there is one scene in which David Niven deliriously kicks in one picture tube after another. Marriage of convenience Gradually, Hollywood’s resentment of television simmered down as the studios began to sell their old films to the medium (in 1956) and started producing — more and more television programs on their own including back lots.

In order to get people out of their living rooms, Hollywood asserted its artistic integrity and began to show the viewers things they could not get on television. Not only did such technological improvements as Cinerama, CinemaScope, and the (almost total) conversion to color result; artistically, films started dealing with McGovern Campaign Chief in 72 Author of "Nixon from Whittier to Watergate" * Monday, March 29, 1976 8:00 PM, Fillmore Room free to students $1.00 to all others Friday, 26 March 1976 .

A movie on television is a "program" taking up space that would otherwise require some of television's ideas to fill (on the positive side, it could mean four less Norman Lear situation comedies). The only constructive idea the denizens of window-less offices have to come up withris a title for this program. They are generally very scientific about it, using the formula: (day of the week) (time of day) "movie." The implication, of course, is that one film is like any other: The Money Movie may show (a badly butchered version of) Citizen Kane one day, followed by Godzilla Meets the Seven Dwarves (in two parts four the first day, three the next). The exception is the "classic" film, which is actually a better-than-average film that television tries to make a "classic" simply by making it available to viewers with a little bit of fanfare.

Since emerging in the early fifties, he has been one of the most influential ofall tenor saxophone artists. He ascended to leadership in the jazz world following the school of bebop and remolding it into what he himself jcalts hard bop. In 1956, Sonny joined the Max Roach Quintet with the legendary Cliff Brown on trumpet. In 1957, he was voted the outstanding tenor player in the Downbeat readers' poll. By 1959, he was at the top of the jazz world. After completing one of the most revolutionary albums of the decade with trumpeter Don Cherry, he vanished. For two years Sonny's absence from the music world was interrupted only by impromptu midnight sessions on the Brooklyn Bridge. Since that timere, there have been three critically acclaimed albums and infrequent live performances. Sonny Rollins' appearance at the Newport Jazz Festival last summer prompted critic Gary Giddons to call him the greatest living tenor player. His newest album. Nucleus, is a glimpse into the future and characterizes Sonny's ability to change with the times. The (JUAB Music Committee is extremely proud to be able to take a chapter of jazz history and hold it open for all to see. Sonny Rollins will be in Clark Hall at 8:30 p.m. tonight.

Friday, 26 March 1976 Prodigal Sun �Spider Martin Communication of emotion and life by Harold Goldberg Spectrum Music Staff I don't know if I truly understand jazz. It's true that jazz is a label for a certain kind of music but labelling a style is just a simple "out," yielding a flighty interpretation. John "Spider" Martin, the innovative jazz saxophonist who finished a sweek's stay at the Statler-Hilton tried to explain jazz to me. It starts out with a craving, a human need to communicate with something other than words —. something just short of a universal language. During the end of the Great Depression, Spider would listen constantly to a magic sound on the radio. He didn't know what instrument produced those mellow, lifting notes but he knew he needed to make that sound; he pictured that instrument in his mind and when he finally received that instrument, felt it in his hands and saw it with his eyes, it appeared as his imagination and dreams had fancied it. Image: a saxophone and a child consumed by a Niagara Falls ghetto, |he ghetto would soon be consumed with the touch of musical ~ intercourse. On stage, tension enfolds the surroundings with a crafted ambience as a golden sax breathes out Billie Holliday's "God Bless the Child." The tension is important, it operates on the ear blooming five senses from one. The sax is nourished by the glowing energy of the man.

Antonia Brico's motto runs, and this principle by which her whole life has been governed was repeated again and again during the lecture and workshop she presented here Tuesday and Wednesday. (At one point midway through Tuesday njght's talk in the Fillmore Room, in fact, she insisted that the whole audience recite the line along with her; the urge-to conduct obviously pervades everything she does.) For Dr. Brico, this creed has certainly been useful; as both a woman and a conductor, she was anathema to managers and orchestras for almost 50 years. But she persevered and won. Delivering anecdotes and bits of wisdom she has picked up during the rather extreme ups and downs of her long conducting career. Dr. Brico spoke to an enthusiastic audience about the obsession that started when a lonely five-year-old watching a band leader in a park "thought it was so interesting that a little stick could make such beautiful music." at the moment is my favorite work," Dr. Brico naturally "vibrates," as she put it, to the music of a few composers most of all; a discussion of the relationship between two favorites, Bach and Mendelssohn, started off her Wednesday morning workshop in Baird Hall. In response to an early question about whether she had seen the completed version of the Judy Collins-Jill Godmilow film Antonia: A Portrait of the Woman (its release in 1974 was largely Prodigal Sun - Prisons and Philharmonics He tells me this is naturally contrived. To communicate with the audience he digs deep for their emotion, impelling an angry feeling of not knowing what will happen next. Striving for a colored argument, he smoothly and firmly talks with the saxophone becoming protagonist Spider Martin wins the extraordinaire; he wins the argument argument but the audience doesn't lose. — Recollection: A few months after the Attica rebellion. Spider Martin serves time for attempted forgery. Musical instruments shot up during the rebellion. Happiness. A guitar is found. Spider teaches the inmates to play without instruments. He then takes over the choir. Little time for gospel, much time to teach music. Word of mouth leaks to the outside. The Rochester and Buffalo Philharmonics commission Spider to compose and orchestrate pieces for performance. He writes music for 86 different instruments while he is familiar with few and in contact with even fewer. — Labor of love "The music saved my life," she said of the sad childhood during which she dreaded school vacations and "loathed Saturdays and Sundays." Years later, as a young music student in Berlin, she admitted, "there were times when I cheated and lied to get into rehearsals," hiding under seats until concert hall lights went out and dashing madly past guards. "You have to fight for what you wartt," she emphasized once more, justifying her pride in these exploits. Organizing her talk nearly as unconventionally as she arranged her career. Dr. Brico began with a question-and-answer period, pulling together widely varied threads of experience from her Berlin student days,,twenty-year association with Finnish composer Jean Sibelius, fame and then near-infamy as a conductor, and long friendship with Albert Schweitzer to construct replies which spanned three continents and seven decades. "The top of tfvMbp" of the influences on her music has been Dr. Schweitzer (among the dozens of unexpected stories she tells about him concerns his three pelicans; "he named them Tristan, Lohengrin, and Parsifal, and he used to bow to them each morning"), although she also claimed to "worship the ground Sibelius walked on." Despite her confession that "the one I conduct Spider Martin joined Lionel Hampton's country music group at the age of 19. The group would tease the audience with mellow entertainment until the show neared its end and Martin would aim his sax to release the pent up energy of peoples' emotion with a tune called "Spider." Those who didn't know Martin's name would identify him with the tune and shout, "C'mon. C'mon Spider-man."

A man approaches, offering the sax-man a contract to play. Find a glory gimmick the name "Spider" in return for fun, money, getting high. Pieces fit. The tension flirts with the audience. Ears dance with the sound of an original composition, "Triangle." The gold sax spouts notes with rainbow colors, quickly, faster, in a blur. High to low fo deep, it mesmerizes the audience. Spider's eyes are closed; he sees the audience and correlates a wiley triangle from man to sax to people, fitting the impossible puzzle to dovetailed perfection. He sinks the audience with exhilaration and with a mellow, soft change he ends with a blue sadness which is happy lightness. Floating like a butterfly ' Awe and fascination are painted on the audience's faces as Martin plays with his group. The Ignition System.

David is best known for his early contributions to Ten Wheel Drive and his participation in the musical units of Miles Davis and Elvin Jones. Since leaving to form his own band, he has expanded the scope and influences which have always limited his yet supported approach to saxophone.

Liebman's own musical Farm, contingent, Lookout with a host represented a return to tenor as well as the use of alto flute, Lookout Farm was a congregation of musical abstractions, including the frantic pacing that has become Liebman's trademark.

The alternative of inclusion model and instrumentation structure releases Liebman from the conventional yet demands a clarity in tone and syncopation that fails to come across. Liebman's attempt to bring Indian music in direct contact with the overdrive of avant-garde jazz is admirable but leaves this listener with the confused feeling of being in a religious bingo game, not knowing which result is concrete. Synthesizers and sitars do- not seem natural friends. In this case. East meets West, and much like La Choy canned chow mein, it is better left unopened; Perhaps time will prove otherwise, and the inventiveness of the jazz idiom will find a comfortable home for our talented friends from India.

The L.A. Express, temporarily stranded, has found a suitable replacement indeed. David Lueli picks up the Express right where Scott left off. Luell plays in very much the same manner as Scott, and I can safely say, with an equal amount of dexterity. He plays, equally well in the moodier, slower tunes, such as the aptly titled "Suavemcnte (Gently) as he does in the more numerous faster paced cuts.

But as is often the case with these journeymen collections of talent, album lacks resulting the motivation and inspiration, thus creating an insipid quality. Side one opens with "Let Me Move You," which is an up-tempo number that previews the album with its overbearing vocals and crisp phrasing by Bloomfields' guitar. Kennedy's voice is rich and controlled but his desire to be soulful becomes irritating and detracts from the usic. "Midnight Traveller" and "High Roller" are slow ballads t|>at start easy, begin to build, and then just die. On the Beatles' "I Got A Feeling," Bloorrlfield plays with clarity and brevity and unveils a tonal quality new to his guitar work which this otherwise highlights uninteresting effort.

"Magic in Your Touch" is another vehicle for Kennedy's vocals and is impotent. Compare this album to Electric Boz Scaggs Flag, Mad Dogs its and others of kind and its be limitations will obvious.

Karly in the letter Prof. Kazarinoff states. “This University is unique in my experience in the depth and breadth of personal conflict among faculty . ." I think that this charge is unfounded and I believe that Prof. Kazarinoff might have misinterpreted his own experience. It happens that I have taught at Prof. Kazarinoffs former institution and it is hard to imagine that anyone would think that there is more personal conflict here than there. I hope that Prof. Kazarinoff was not generalizing to the University as a whole the estimate of the level of personal conflict * that he gathered in a small part. Prof. Kazarinoff goes on to refer to “the faculty’s devotion to mediocrity in the name of liberalism, human rights and academic freedom.” This is a much more serious charge but one which has less substance. Taken literally it is absurd. The /'acuity's devotion to mediocrity...'! Of course, there is mediocrity here, not a large amount, but too much. And of course it disguises itself with various righteous labels. But why focus on the mediocrity which disguises itself as liberalism, human rights and academic freedom? Does Prof. Kazarinoff believe that such mediocrity is in some way more dangerous than the mediocrity disguised, e.g., as mathematics, traditional values, high standards, etc.? LaterProf. Kazarinoff reports emphatic negative answers by “research-active scholars” he contacted to the following question. “Should the University retain unproductive tenured faculty in weak, inessential programs and as a result fire. . . untenured, brilliant young scholars in strong, essential programs?” This revealing question should be read and reread, for what is there as well as for what is omitted. The question links ‘weak’ with ’inessential’ and ‘strong’ with ‘essential’ even though in neither case do the corresponding qualities go together among the programs in this University. Nothing is said of unproductive tenured faculty in strong, essential programs nor is there mention of brilliant young scholars in inessential programs.

Or is he more interested in retaining the power he holds by the grace of his esteemed office as President and Board member of a prominent Buffalo bank? Can he provide any reason why a new graduate or undergraduate student should enter the State University at Buffalo when cutbacks, political reprisals and ruling class priorities rather than quality education, quality of University life and the needs of the plain people are the apparent watchwords of his administration?

Is it our interests that he really defends? Or is it the interests of the elites of Buffalo, the Stale of N.Y. and the system that he defends? “Whenever any Form of <;overnment becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it. .

I 'ricdimin Prof. Kazarinoff claims that the former Academic vice president was “damned for proposing priorities among the academic programs back in 1972.” Fortunately, this is not so. Of course, the former Academic vice president was criticized because many felt that he had not exercised taste and judgement in forming the priorities. In my opinion, Prof. Kazarinoffs letter contains misinformation, unfair charges and useless presuppositions, and its publication only serves to further muddy an already muddy stream. May I suggest to future letter writers that they try to verify their facts and i- weigh their charges and presuppositions before publishing? The future of this University is more important than a new theorem of mathematics. So it would seem that standards applying to communications concerning the former should be at least as high as those applying to the Vol. 26, No. 68 for all his protestations of really cutbacks, to refuse the Trustees' he administer cutbacks?

The Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. Republication of any matter herein without the express consent of the Editor-in-Chief is strictly forbidden. Editoral policy is determined Editor-in-Chief I am writing'in response to Mr. Pollack's letter in / Iw S/)cftruni i .1/24. entitled "Driver/rider.” After reading his letter my only thought was that he was trying to brown-nose his employer. I have probably as much contact with bus service on this campus, if not more, as I am chairman of the IRC-SA Busing Committee. I have been working with the administration since the beginning of the school year to Institute many changes and correct any problems that may arise. This University contracts with Blue Bird for approximately '4 million dollars a year to provide a service. Il is when this service is not provided that a problem arises. Hrst'Ol all, (he schedules are totally adequate from a feasibility viewpoint. Ridge Road proved-lhal they could keep buses on schedule. The laull must then lie with the drivers of Blue Bird. oulil it be their many and frequent coffee breaks at Diefendorf Annex?Could it be the frequent breakdown of Blue Bird buses? Just last week the Department of Transportation (DOT) declared a dozen of Blue Bird buses unsafe and pulled them off the road until corrections could be made. This problem never arose with Ridge Road. Look around, why are Blue Bird buses really late? As to the statement that Ridge Road drivers picked-up and let-off students anywhere, this .is true, but far less compared to Blue Bird drivers, I have observed many Blue Bird drivers make many “illegal" stops. Mr. Pollack says that "... safety is the main issue here.” Ridge Road drivers must take a bus ( driving course by Ridge Road's own training supervisor, no matter who they are. before they are allowed to drive for the company. Blue Bird doesn’t have this. Maybe they should, have you ever noticed how many times Blue Bird drivers run slop signs on campus? As a matter of fact, a complaint was turned in on a Ridge Road driver for being late one day on campus. Later that day the driver was fired. It turned out that this driver was a former Blue Bird driver. It is illegal to stand on a school bus in this stale as Mr. I'ollack points out. The yellow buses that run on campus are not school buses, but are -classified as charter buses. Standing is allowed on charter buses regardless of type. The no-standing rule on the yellow buses on campus is not a law. but a Blue Bird regulation. It is because of this that Ridge Road allowed standees on the yellow “school buses.” I will agree that the new sign system is very easy to use. It is a very effective system when used properly. It is up to the driver to put in the signs in the front, right side, and rear windows. Look around, how often are the signs not displayed as per University regulations. Mr. Pollack, you say be resolved long as "... as that all problems will can follow the you regulations." To me the sentence should read that all problems will be resolved as long as you and other Blue Bird drivers follow the regulations." To you Mr. Pollack I say stop bull-shitting the students, the University and your employer. Hill Hack IKC-S i Hu\ing (ainmiltcc C'huinnau Friday, 26 March 1976 The Spectrum . Page thirteen . > �Correction the bull ptn by David J. Rubin ' In Monday's issue of The Spectrum it was erroneously reported that members of Student Association (SA) balked at a softball challenge by members of The Spectrum thereby resulting in a. forfeit victory for the newspaper. Although SA did balk at the offer, it eventually saw fit to reverse this decision. We of The Spectrum failed to allow for the usual policy changes so common in SA affairs. , ■ ' . \ .. When I first began writing sports’for The Spectrum back in 1973,1 covered the less prestigious varsity teams like, cross country and fencing. But even then, as a lowly cub reporter, the prospect of covering an intramural sports was a degrading one. 1 did not have a good understanding of the athletics situation at this Univeristy at that time, and to me intramurals seemed like the dregs of all athletics. As time went by, I proved up through the ranks of the sports department and began writing about more popular and prestigious sports like hockey, and this year as Sports Edifor, I have treated intramurals merely a? an afterthough. “Oh yes,” .1 would remember. “We should be writing something on intramural football finals,” I would say, and some short, uninteresting story would get written and printed. It was all tokenism, anyhow. Boy, was I wrong. The policy of downplaying intramural sports in The Spectrum has been around for so long that it is blindly accepted from year to year. Sitting at my desk in 355 Norton, I had no idea just how much interest there actually is in intramurals, especially Baseball Bulls Florida games successful , basketball. % This year’s playoff final between the Heads and the Rockets drew a sizeable crowd of about 500 fans. Even more impressively, the fans acknowledged good play from both sides, although most of them strongly favored either of the two competing teams. The game itself was incredible. Tensions were high, and both teams played some damned good basketball. What all this means is that The Spectrum has been severely lax in its coverage of intramural sports. The sheer number some 2500 probably makes it of people involved in intramurals the most all encompassing activity on this campus. I can’t understand why people haven’t written letters to The Spectrum complaining about this lack of coverage. Unfortunately, by the time I realized this gap in The Sepctrum's sports coverage, the intramural basketball season was ending, and it was too late to rectify the situation. But I sincerely hope that next year, intramural coverage will become an integral part Of The Spec-turn's - — by John H. Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer The baseball Bulls have returned from their Florida trip with smiles on their faces. For the first time in years the Bulls not only avoided disaster in their southern swing, but had a productive week besides. The Bulls finished with a 4-7 won-lost record, which, considering the caliber of play in the Tigertown Tournament, has to make all concerned very happy. Buffalo tied Big 10 runner-up Iowa for third place in the fifial standings. Big 8 champ Missouri won the tournament by posting an 8-3 mark while the Big 10 winner Michigan finished second with a 6-5 record. sports pages. It is not a comedown to cover intramurals. The players, refs, organizers, and fans tend to be most cooperative. Hell, everybody wants to be interviewed or photographed by The Spectrum. In fact, the informality of intramurals lends itself to a different, moe down to earth style of reporting which can add flavor to a sports story and an entire sports section. Because of Buffalo’s relatively good showing, enthusiasm is running high. “This was the most successful trip we’ve ever taken,” exclaimed Bulls coach Bill Monkarsh, now in his ninth year as coach. “We won more games -than ever before. The only thing th?t upset me is that we lost four one run games. Other than that, our group really played fantastic.” (yeah, you) HEY YOU PREMED PEOPLE!!!

Student strikes In fact, 1 could easily see the institution of an Intramural Athlete of the Week. I could see an intramural Statistics Box, and most of all I believe that The Spectrum can and should have a weekly intramural report with general notes and information about the past week’s activity along with a focus on one, or two different leagues each week. Infield gels 1 would like to take this opportunity to thank the people (you The most important achievement by the Bulls in should know who you are) who helped me realize just how bigi Florida was the improved defensive play of their intramurals really is. I will do everything in my power to ensure that in future years, intramural sports will be well represented on the sports infield. Last year the practically all new infield was plagued by a lack of communication. This led to pages of The Spectrum. - — MONDAY.

According to Monkarsh. the Bulls did not experience the same problems in Lakeland. “The defense was super," Monkarsh said. “We made more double plays than ever before. All around our infield was 100 percent better than last year’s. It was as good as anyone’s.” As has been their trademark in the past, the Bulls hitting was top notch. They compiled an outstanding .370 team average. Left fielder Jim Mary led the team, plugging at a .439 clip. Arms a question The Bulls’ pitching was also put to the test in Florida and the news about the mound corps is both good and bad. The staffs control was good and the pitching strong in the early games as Buffalo took three of their first four games. But poor control hurt the Bulls later in the tournament and it affected the results adversely. Monkarsh claims that his task how is to keep the team’s enthusiasm high during the present three week recess. The Bulls won’t play another game until April 2 when they meet Navy in Annapolis. Tm very hopeful for this year although it is a concerned hope. These guys have proven themselves under fire but they will have to continue to do it. The important thing for a successful season is that we split our games with the top teams and beat the poorer ones consistantly.

The shop specializes in books which are often tucked away in a corner of most regular bookstores. Studies of occult topics like witchcraft and astrology are carried .here, as well as books on yoga, health, cooking. Materials available and programs run by Great Earth extend beyond the sale of books. Beginning astrologers can find such “star-reading” necessities at ephremeris's books (containing tables of dates and planet positions) and charting paper; East-West journal is carried and a selection of .herbs, teas. oils, posters and incense. Several unusual courses are taught here, usually on a weekly basis for two to three months. Tarot reading and astrology are $40.00 each. For $100.00 a form of mind control called ‘“Insight.

Fret well. The Buffalo State students, who have occupied the first floor of (irover Cleveland Hall (the central administration building) since Friday morning, met with administration officials again Tuesday to discuss their demands. The 60 or so demonstrators intend to remain in the building until several demands are met. These include restoration of all STJNY cutbacks, immediate freezing of tuition and residential fees at present levels, the granting of amnesty for the two students arrested in last Monday’s Albany protest, the restoration of faculty lines cut in Health Sciences at Buff State, repeal of the Taylor Law which prohibits strikes by public employees, and the institution of open admissions and free tuition in the SUNY systme. Large reductions Buffalo State, which in 1675 76 operated on a S22.025.800 budget, was hit hard by this year's cuts. As the largest college in SUNY. it has been slated for SI.264.000 in appropriation reductions, despite the fact that the school's enrollment of 12.600 is its largest ever. Frelwell remains well disposed toward the student demands and the "stop the cut fight" in general. The protesters have strived for a. frictionless dialogue with the President in order not to alienate the administration, indicated student spokesman David Fsperon. Fsperon expressed the view that the administration’s cooperative attitude has diminished the liklihood of a general strike. In fact, the first tloor takeover has the tacit approval of the college president. The results of Monday’s closed door meeting with Fretwell were very, encouraging, according to Hric Greenberg, news editor of the Buffalo State newspaper. The Record. Fretwell tentatively acceded to many of the protesters~key demands, he said. Press coverage The Buffalo State •‘sit-in" has received extensive news media coverage. The exposure includes a front-page article in Monday's Courier h'xprcxx and television coverage by the three major local news programs. Overall, the press has portrayed the demonstration in favorable light. Ksperon said many faculty members and adininistration officials sympathi/.e with the students' demands. "Of course, it is natural that the faculty would support us: they are among those who have the most to lose from the SONY cutbacks.'' he noted. Buffalo State Campus Security has gone so far as to provide the protesters with food. Throughout their'stay in the building, the students have been sacking out in sleeping bags, subsisting on a snack diet of peanut butter, cheese, crackers and fruit. \ records in me garbage, bring Ihcnv used bookstore and here. As record exchange, the Circular Wont is one of Ihc few places where recycling can be observed first hand. ' Owner's motivation There tire several other used bookstores in Buffalo, but Tcddi Van Every, founder and present owner of the Circular Word, did not find them sufficient. She saw used bookstores becoming disorganized and dusty. But not in the Circular Word. The wide variety of'books are set up by category. Only clean-books with covers will be- accepted, thereby guaranteeing good condition. Van Every conceived the store two years ago. An article about book exchanges in I.ijestyle magazine sparked her interest and became the model on which the Circular Won! was built. She rented the storefront next to the Lexington Food Coop (where she worked then) for the shop. Van believes that her Ev$ty undertaking can serve as an example for others. "Almost any kind of plan can be successful." she said, "if there is enough energy and friends." The Circular Word and the Lexington Coop worked closely as next door .neighbors. The coop has recently changed Us location, yet Van Every has remained active in the coop, which site considers “a philosophical extension" of her store. Intended as coop Van Every originally wanted tire store to be a cooperative. Although it turned out to be independently owned and ruft. the dream is still with her. Her ultimate plan for the shop is to make it into both a book and o craft coop*. ;.i.. The CimUaf Word is bused on _ the idea thaf unwanted books can be traded for more popular titles. continued on page 5 Food Stamps Senate proposes cutback by Pat Quinlivan City h'ditor The federal food slump program may undergo a drastic revision if proposed legislation is passed by the Senate on March 2‘t- This bill would make sharp cutbacks in (he number of people eligible-for the federal assistance. According to (Jury of the World Food Committee and ('AC. who was in Washington. D.C. last week, the Senate bill would lower the official poverty line for a family of four from S6200 to $5050 per year, as recommended by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). This follows continuing inflation, which , reduces the buying power of the consumer’s dollars. The average household, which now pays approximately -23 percent of the cost of the food stamps H receives, would pay over 27 percent under (he new plan. In addition, while the'current program allows recipients to take itemized deductions for family thembers on their applications, the proposed setup would require applicants to take a standard deduction of SI00 per family member (SI 25 for those over 65). A new ,limitation of SI 5.000 worth of income-producing assets per family will preclude a number' of poor, small farmers from maintaining their food stamp eligibility, which may need to feed their families.' * Few real abuses The upcoming vote will that is the finished product reform ideas, one of which (•erald Ford, another from be taken upon a bill of four food stamp came from President James Buckley N.Y.k These bills were the result of a loud outcry from some corners (hat there were massive abuses taking place within the food stamp program. The World hood Committee points out that a USDA report to the Senate Agricultural Committee showed that fraud accounted for only .8 percent of the total food stamp allocations last year, a figure which is very low for a program of this sort. Covernment statistics have shown that, while there are currently 18.8 million persons on food stamps. 30 million people are actually eligible, or approximately one in seven Americans. However, about half of the people who fall below the poverty line are not participating in the program right now, due to the purchase requirement, which mandates that the poor must pay, for example. SI00 to purchase S166 worth of stamps. Since many poor families cannot afford to save up until they have SI00. the Dole-McGovern-Humphrey Amendment to the bill would simply give the poor family S66 in stamps, thereby streamlining the program and cutting costs at the same lime. Crucial amendment The amendment would also adjust the poverty line and standard deduction in accordance with the cost-of-living index, instead of the current method of using statistics which are one or fwo years old. If this amendment is defeated in the' Senate, it is unlikely that it will he included in the hill when the House acts upon it. Another amendment to the hill would assure that no applicant would have to wail more than 30 days after applying for food stamps. C urrently there is a mandatory period of 30 days after income loss, which is usually followed hy another 30-day wail. The World Food Committee has been urging citizens, especially in the Buffalo area, to write their senators and congressmen, urging them to work for the liberalization rather than the retrenchment of the food stamp program. �Day Cacej£tums CAC nursery in the making The Community Action Corps (CAC) has presented a SI 0.000 budget to the Student Association (SAI tor the establishment ol' a University nursery. This is the first attempt to recreate any type of day care facility since the tarly Childhood Center was dissolved last year. The nursery would differ from a day care center in various ways, hirst, a nursery costs much less to operate as opposed to a day care center which must he fully equipped with cots for each child, serve at least one hot meal per day. and maintain stricter child/slaff ratios under New York State hduealion Department regulations. Because the nursery can only hold a child for three hours per day. CAC wants to conduct two individual sessions lit accommodate more children. The project director for the CAC nursery is Carolyn MeGuffog. wlio became active upon learning that tlie Presbyterian Church on- Main Street would donate an entire floor for (he nursery. Parents will have to pay "just a minimal fee." depending on what they can afford, according its MeGuffog. MeGuffog and CAC Director Andy Harrington arc expecting the funds to come out of student fees. They have already submitted a budget proposal to SA. and plan to approach other student groups, including the Graduate Student Association. They do not intend to ask the University administration for any funding. Prior to last summer, the old Day Care Center in Editor wanted Day Care Center interest survey TJw ’University Presbyterian Church has expressed an interest in the need for child care services -for those affiliated with U.B.

Like the Senate resolution, the executive Committee called 'for reconsideration of the Interim Report, but suggested it be done by the current Committee. While the letter suggested that Ketter seek broader representation encompassing all segments of the University when filling several vacancies on the Committee, its criticism of the report and the Committee was confined to a statement that doubt had been cast ppon the Interim Report by its poor reception and by the criticisms made upon it. Good faith cited Perhaps most importantly, the Committee stated.

Smooth ride Japanese trains beat AMTRAKany dap note: Marc Epstein is a graduate student of Japanese history currently on a fellowship ‘at Kanazawa University. This is the fifth article he sent from Japan. Editor's by Marc Epstein Special to'The Spectrum Some of you who have had the misfortune of riding the AMTRAK tfain between Buffalo and New York probably believe that the train a victim of has passed into history just like the Pony Express progress and the automobile. But that is not the case. Here in Japan, the trfin has progressed to levels of sophistication unimagineable in the United States. How ironic. When Commodore Perry met with Japanese officials for the first time he made sure to bring tangible examples of western technology that were certain to impress the Japanese. There is a famous almost comical illustration of Japanese officers of state gleefully riding what turned out to be Perry’s most significant gift, a . miniature railroad. - Pleasant ride From Kanazawa you can take a train (with a guaranteed seat) leaving almost every hour and making connections to every major city in Japan. The trip to Tokyo that covers 260 mijes. about 20 stops, and a change of trains takes five and one-half hou'rs. If the train is more than five minutes off schedule, the conductor apologizes in the most polite and formal Japanese I have heard that they are very sorry for the delay. Should the schedule be changed, the TV and radio will announce the changes well in advance. Like every place you go in Japan, the staTion is kept hospital clean, and the products available for sale are beautifully displayed. From Tokyo you can ride the famous Bullet Express. The Kanazawa trip is a milk run in cortiparison. The train covers a distance of 513 kilometers in less than three hours. It is safe, enjoyable and depressing when you contemplate how much more difficult this type of travel is in the United States. BBleated attempt There was a bleated attempt by the U.S. Department of Transportation in the late 60’s and early 70’s to encourage rail transportation again. Cities were encouraged to build mass rapid transit systems, and AMTRAK was created by an act of Congress to restore passenger rail -transportation. The results were so dismal that cities that planned rapid transit systems with thtf hope of massive federal funding (i.e. Buffalo) are now being told to reconsider. The new judgement is that short of banning the automobile and tearing up the interstate highway system, "the American way of life is inextricably tied to the car. Although proven high speed energy saving technology exists, the very structure of urbanization and suburban settlement in the U.S. prevents the success of a Japanese type of transportation system. The multi-billion dollar high speed transportation system constructed in the San Francisco Bay area called BART has failed its primary objective, reducing vehicular traffic. Although Tokyo may have massive traffic jams fhat rival any in New York, the basic pattern of transportation revolves around the train. The rugged topography made massive highway building difficult and the limited land mass demanded economical use of space. So despite similarities jn technological sophistication, the land itself has remained a crucial factor in the development of lifestyles in the U.S. and Japan.

In one New York alley, peeling though, playwright Jeffrey Brooks-has found love, heroin, dreams, and the beginnings of an ensemble theatre company. If s’ all in his’newest play. The Alley Between Our Two Hoiises. hcmg staged by the Theatre Department in The Han (man Theatre Studio .'V March 25 thru TO. In Jeffs words. “The dreaming experience can be just as important or as Valid as the waking experience." Alley is very concerned with dreams and fantasy, often to the exclusion of intellectual “understanding." In a large part, the play is a series of non-natural, unreal images that Jeff says “have to be responded to in a sensual way by the audience . . . the experience in the theatre should be more important than the intellectual message." — Loose salute “We tried to provide an atmosphere that was so free, so rum-judgmental, that the actors could try any interpretation they liked." (Some parts of the play were rewritten because the conceptions changed over the course of rehearsals, which have been going on since October.) But everyone was always conscious that “the aCtors'aren’t the directors” and that “pretense doesn’t work( *-jever.’ Much of the credit for the successful development of the ensemble belongs to Alley's director, Ray Munro. He came to the University with credits in the New York Sluikespeare Festival’s Hamlet and the Chicago Project’s Naked Lunch; like Jeff, he teaches in the Theatre Department here. “Finding a director that I can trust is the most exciting thing,” Jeff says of working with Ray. “He trusts the script and he trusts me.” James J. Keller is musical director for Alley, the rock score was also written by Jeff. Doug Sloan designed sets and costumes for the play. Alley is Jeffs second play to be produced at the University; his first. If A Tree Falls... was done here last summer. His next play, Auburn, is set for this coming fall. Ray Munro has himself devised a theater piece called Roommates, scheduled for production at the end of April. The Alley Between Our Two Houses is playing in the Harriman Theatre Studio March 25 through 30, starting at 8 p.m. Tickets ($1 for students, senior citizens, and unemployed, $2.50 for everyone else) are available at the Norton Ticket Office. ? " — It means what it says Alley strays considerably from some of the more “fundamental” conventions of meaning in a play; “It doesn't have a theme or a message.” What it does have is several “alleged poles" between which it travels (“It seems to me that I go one way of the other.”). Dreams and reality, of course, but there are others: oneness and alienation, humanity and hostility, and “heroin and love." perhaps the metaphor for them all. Jeff feels that more explicit explanation isn’t needed: “I think that just looking at life will tell you all you need to know." AJIey is being performed by a 20-member cast (playing 64 characters, “all based on people I know”) that is hoped will be the basis for a continuing ensemble of actors.

Tor into, call 85.5-l.206 $ - Great numbers of people buy audio equipment from distributors in the Buffalo area. Stereo components are being purchased at retail and below retail prices by a diverse cross section of the public. One audio dealer capitalizing on this trend is Purchase Radio, an independent local chain of three Buffalo stores. "Our patrons range from IS to bO years old.” said the manager of the Niagara Falls Boulevard, Amherst store. “Right now Citizens' Bnad (C.B.) radios are our most popular item, but usually stereo sales account for SO percent of our business.” The manager attributes ‘)0 percent of.the store’s business to advertising. -Purchase Radio runs ads on WGRO and WBUF-FM. as well as in The Huffah Hvening News. A small compact stereo can be bought for S250 at Purchase; the separate components for a full system start at- S450. The manager wifi generally discount the total price of a large system; an outfit whose components cost SXGO would lie cut anywhere from S60 to SIO0. There is generally 30-.1,1 percent mark-up over the wholesale price on merchandise, yet certain manufacturers dictate the prices of certain items. The Niagara halls Boulevard Purchase Radio store averages about month in total sales, it is a local chain offering local service (many other stores have to ship out for specific items). "People can come in and look around fill they want. They can lake it easy, we won't bother them." the manager said. Advertising important Tech Hi-Fi. also located on Niagara halls Boulevard in Amherst, carries the name of a large national chain of 47 stores, yet it is an independent franchise, not a branch store. Tech’s ovyner purchased the store at the chain's inception, and was consequently able to keep it independent. A Tech Hi-hi. employee said the store's clientele are "mostly young people." and that "about one in ten is over 35." The role of advertising is significant. The chain advertises nationally in Time and Newsweek. The �ranch ise advertises on local television and radio stations as well as in The Buffalo Evening News and The Spectrum. Tech sells compact systems for S260 and up. and component systems for anywhere from S400. Recently a Kenwood/400 receiver, two Ohn J bookshelf speakers and a B.S.R. 2310W turntable were salcpriced as a system for S2l )9. Stereo Coop Center Audio- Haven is a different breed of dealer. Located at 50 Hempstead Avenue, it is this University's stereo coop. It is open from 5 to l p.m. weekdays, and from ten in the morning to six at night Saturdays. "The fact is. we are off campus so students don't know about this place." said Audio Haven nanager Alan Perl. "Wo put up signs in Norton Hall to advertise but they're ripped down almost immediately. I suspect by students selling stereo equipment independently who arc in competition with us. Some people even think we sell hot stuff." he added The coop discounts Kenwood. Marant/, Technics. Garrard and B.S.R. products. Bose, J.B.L., L.S.S.. Phase Linear, and Aquaphase arc not often discounted, hut are available through Audio Haven at reduced prices.

Audio Haven also sells small appliances, sewing machines, typewriters, camera lenses, and cameras, all at a discount. "We charge a stripping fee plus 15 percent mark-up over cost, which also covers the sales lax." Perl said.

MW /K for the program can only be termed regressive. In a letter sent to campuses across the state earlier this year, Buckley stated that, "To my mind, the use of food stamps by college students constitutes exploitation of the other young Americans of that age who are at work.” Buckley contends that students are. in effect, a group which chooses to be unemployed. This statement contradicts another remark in the Senator's letter which calls the decision to attend college "the best American tradition of self-improvement." It is difficult to understand how he can be referring in both cases to the same choice. Fraud, supposedly rampant among students applying for food stamps, accounted for less than one percent of the orogram's allocations last year, according to a report by the Jnited States Department of Agriculture to the Senate Agricultural Committee last year. Furthermore, Buckley's example of food stamp abuse by students seems intentionally misleading. In Madison, Wisconsin, 65 percent of the program's recipients were students, said Buckley. He fails to mention. however, that the University of Wisconsin at Madison alone accounts for 50,000 residents of the city at least a third of - * v Union organization of a union, and the administration had continued “talking,” the TAA held a successful strike vote and walked off the job.

Page six The Spectrum Wednesday, . . 24 March 1976 mentioned article, it hurts me as well as the other Blue Bird drivers to find out that there was someone representing himself or a bunch of people who have the sole purpose of degrading Blue Bird and making the job even, harder on the drivers than it is The drivers do not make the bus schedules up. They are made by the University through the campus services. office at Ridge Lea, 4230 Rm C. Any complaints about schedules should go there and not as a blow to the drivers. As to the fact that the Ridge Road drivers would pick-up and let you off where you wanted to is true. They were picking students up at certain points on campus but they were wrong in doing this. How do you expect to keep on schedule stopping every five feet to pick somebody up? There is aka a nutter of safety involved here. The prescribed bus stops which the University has established are at these places because they are the safest places to pick up and discharge passengers with the greatest efficiency. Any extra stops on campus would violate the school’s bus stop area and safety which is the most important issue. If we (the drivers) are caught making these unlawful stops by the University Campus Services or Blue Bird executives, we may loose our jobs because of this and worse than that, we may cause an accident by people caught between buses etc. As you can see safety is the main issue here. Each bus, depending on its route, is designated by a number shown on the front, back, and right side of the bus. These numbers go from 2-7. This number system was also made by the University. When a number 2 bus does not go to EDicott it will say O’Brian and Governor’s in the front of the bus. A key to this number system is posted at every bus stop. It takes three minutes to memorize it. Going to the proper bus stop in the first place and getting on the right bus will get you there in time. When you say sacrifice comfort and bring back,Ridge Road this is false. You are not sacrificing comfort, you are sacrificing safety. Technically, people should only be allowed on a transit type bus since in there you have something to hold on to.-First of all it is illegal to have anybody stand on a school bus. A driver can loose his license if he or she is caught. Ridge Road didn’t care about this. This is our reason for not having standees; don’t blame us for it. This is the law. Don’t blame the drivers for it. The part of that letter that’s really hurting us was the fact that you said that we deserted you. The only thing I can say is that a person has to live. So as you can plainly see we are just doing our jobs and following the rules set forth by the University. With your cooperation and understanding of the rules set forth by the University, together we will be able to insure a transportation so efficient as possible. Give us a chance and we will be able to work together in harmony. You can be assured of our cooperation in this matter and we hope that all pfoblems will be resolved as long as you can follow the regulations. Robert M.

If we do not hear from you by then, we will consider this a Fate sealed ■ After reading Brett Kline’s article titled “Campus Unrest” in Monday’s The Spectrum I feel a need to respond as both a Senator and as a student. Other SUNY schools have taken over their administration buildings, it is true. However, Mr. Kline neglects to point out that the Presidents of other SUNY schools are cooperating with these takeovers because they are illustrative of the concern negative reply. *3* Eight students were at Albany this- past weekend, including Steve Schwartz, lobbying with legislators for an increased SUNY budget. Well was there too) also talked to people from SUNY Central. Steve did arrange for. (exclusively) the forum with Dr. Ketter. You cannot truthfully say that “Student Association hadn’t gotten involved.” I don’t think that sit-ins or demonstrations are going to have any effect whatsoever on cutbacks or tuition hikes. These things have already been mandated, by the legislature. Mr. Kline’s admonition that “if we don’t do something now, we are lost,” is too late for any effect this year. We’ve already lost the fight for money. What we should do is identify those legislators who do not consider higher education a priority. Remember, people (voters, too, I hope), this is an election year. To the hditor Howard L. Kling, President Graduate Student Employees Union of students. " U.B., though, is U.B., not other SUNY schools. 1 find it highly doubtful that Dr. Kefter would permit result and/or endorse a sit-in in Hayes Hall. The Attica would probably be one similar to that of the demonstration last year. The previous Student Association administration had no interest in an instant replay and 1 don’t blame them. “Once bitten, Berk Black Student Senate twice shy.” Excessive charges To the Editor. This academic year, perhaps obsessed with budget cuts, I find the avaricious tentacles of Library Services engulfing me in my joyful pursuit of enlightenment. Last fall 1 got a note from UGL stating that 1 owed S25 for a book I had not returned. The book had been returned a paperback listed at S3.95 long before receipt of the notice. I wanted to question the rationale of why a student should be ripped off $25 for the replacement of a $3.95 paperback. But I could almost hear the pedantic drone about purchase order, accounting, cataloguing, and inflation in general. However, a phone call sufficed to clarify this problem; the book was located, properly shelved. This week I received an ominous note from Health Sciences Library asking that I return an overdue book immediately, that fines were accumulating at the rate of $.25 per day, including book weekends. Fortunately, I had kept returns. But the copy number recorded by the clerk didn’t coincide with that of the allegedly missing book. 1 have yet to hear the outcome of this bizarre episode. Now I wake up nights and wonder if that will succeed Library Services collossal octopus in squeezing, crushing, mutilating me. Will I discover the Bursar looms with an ultimately that astronomical bill before I can register for next semester or get a transcript? Police story ' _ To the h'ditor: The story you are about to' read is true. The names have been left out to protect the wishes for anonymousness of a floormate of mine, or because I don’t know the name of one of the two participants. My name is at tlfe bottom of this. Friday night, the 19th of March, 1976, at 9:35 p.m., I was waiting for the next bus to Main St.; 1 was nonchalantly perusing today’s version of DoonsebUry, when I heard the sound of a motor vehicle. I turned to watch it. It was an edition of, as my roommate calls it, “Rumpus Security.” The car was traveling slowly, and as I watched its progress, my head, as it is wont to do, turned from left to right, along with the motion of the car. The car rolled past me, and then, stopped. My head, as if by magic, also stopped. When the car started going again, my head moved with it, again. However, this time my head was moving from right to left, largely because the car was backing up. It came to a stop, with the door right in frbnt of me. The door opened! One of the “Peace"” Officers got out. As he walked over to me 1 began to wonder what I d|d. He challenged me, asking: “Do you go to school here, kid?” I thought of saying something cook, like “No, V just tike to hang out in the tunnel cause that’s where all . the heavy carbon monoxide breathin’ action is, man...” My reply was a‘simple, but *. v . . effective; “Yeah.” - - ., . - - Joe I, am in j s&ovp r< &eia\ far LOOKS- non-student looks like me. into the gloom that Anyway as the car can only be described as EUicott’s tunnel, 1 wished the honcho luck in apprehending this criminal. Epilogue. Eventually the bus, as they do, did come- 1 got on with the rest of the mob that had gathered for it. One part of the mob was my roommate, another his girlfriend, and a third was a girl who lives on my floor. 1 told her the story in detail, and she, after reflecting a bit, asked what would have happened had I not been carrying my ID. We can only guess, however. I probably would have been taken somewhere, to try and prove my identity. /.ic. ■> Larry Furman fV FA7WR5 & mwrw Then the cop asked me for my ID. “Kid, I want to see your UB I.D.” I began to dig it out of the recesses of my back pocket, and I fancied that 1 heard him say: “NOW!

Why he wanted my room number 1 can only guess the ID, unlike moist, doesn’t have that information printed upon it. He gave it back, and grinning sheepishly, trudged back to the car. 1 asked him the reason for his inquiry.

No. these statements are not about Kareem, Wilt or even Sam Pellom. Carolyn Thomas, coach of the Buffalo womens basketball team and Clyde O'Malley, a guard for the team, used these words to describe Buffalo’s 6*2" center Anne Trapper who averaged ib.6 points and I 5.8 rebounds this year. Trapper, who will graduate in June, began playing basketball in the fourth grade because of her height. “I saw that it (basketball) was a game for a taller person.” she explained. In high school, she played volleyball Jtnd badminton as well as basketball. After graduating from high school, she went to work as a secretary, but didn't let her athletic talent go to waste. She joined the Tonawanda Shamrocks, a local Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) team. stayed with her this year. “It-look a lot for me to gel up for games." she commented. Her own attitude was frustrating her. and as a consequence, “there were only a few games that I really enjoyed,” Official's decisions Teammate Clyde O’Mally explained another cause of Trapper’s frustrations. “The referees picked on Anne because of her height.” she declared. When O'Malley complained to a referee about the number of fouls being called on Trapper, the referee replied that, because of her height, he “just had to assume" that she was responsible. Trapper acknowledged the prejudice on the part of the officials. “They always say they have to look out for the shorter player because I can lake care of myself." hut she added that she couldn't blame her hud games on them. «i£2k< : Statistics box .. • * - ' ' /C.t-7 'igr'' - •Vs?: 1 . * ■ Basketballer Anne Trapper puts size and skill to good use facility: Chess results at the Attica Correctional Horowitz 5-2.

All But many suspect that Trapper's comments about not having a good year are a hit loo modest Changing teams When Trapper enrolled at Buffalo three years later, she continued with the Shamrocks during lier freshman year. But the heavy traveling schedule was such an inconvenience that she. began to look for a way out of AAtf ball. As luck would have it. Trapper was a studehi’in one of Thonias’ classes and the coach asked hef if she played 'basketball. When Trapper said yek. Thomas asked her to join the Buffalo team, and Trapper readily agreed. Trapper had a little trouble adjusting Jo collegiate play during her first season. In the AA.U. there was more contact and the players were more competitive and skilled. ’On the collegiate level, players have different levels of skill consequently Trapper concentrated loo much-on what she was doing, rather than on the game. "I was thinking too much ,of what I should be doing and what the other players should be doing.” she explained. : ; — Injury jinx Trapper was bothered by g torn.cartilege in her and in the summer between her-sophomore and junior year, she underwent an operation to repair the cartilege. She spent'the falf lifting weights and doing exercises to build her knees back up.

Although disappointed about the injury, which prevented her from playing again that year. Trapper used the time to learn about coaching, something she plans to do when she graduates. She feels the layoff helped her, physically. "My knees were really bad and the lay-off was better for me." she commented. But being sidelined for a year hurt her attitude, she says. "I didn't participate, so I wasn't excited, except from a spectating or coaching point of view." According to Trapper, that lack of excitement • - , the loam's 10-5 record.

Memorable experience Chess Club meets Attica The Buffalo Chess Club competed last Sunday in what was certainly its most interesting and unique contest ever. They traveled to Attica, New York to play inmates at the correctional facility located there. The winning and losing was hardly an issue, but the experience was unforgettable. The chess club sent seven of its regular members along with two people from Community Action Corps (CACI to Attica where they spend a full day checking and chatting with the inmates. Both groups were very enthusiastic about the games and it is likely that another tournament will be scheduled there next semester. Early uneasiness Hank Nesenoff. captain of the chess club, said that his team fell somewhat uneasy about playing chess with convicted murderers and rapists, but after just a short time, their nervousness succumbed to the friendly altitude and good chess playing ability of the inmates. Although Nesenoff expected to find the lew top notch players that are imprisoned at Attica, he was impressed by the inmates' overall facility with the game. “Everyone understood all the basics, ami none of them made stupid errors." said Nesenofl. lie added that one of the inmates told him that it was uncommon for the inmates to discuss different chess strategies such as the Nim/o-lndian defense. nol Despite the openness which pervaded the room the competition went on (there were no guards on hand), there were many precautions that where surrounded the arrangements of the visit. The chess club had to inform the Attica officials as to the number of people making the trip and the dale and lime of their arrival far in advance. Search When the team did arrive, officials were upset that they had not been told that a woman was purl of the contingent sent from Buffalo, and although she was allowed to compete, prison officials gave the chess club a slight reprimand for not warning them. Also upon arrival, the chess boards, players, and pieces were all thoroughly searched, making the club members not unaware that they were in a prison In spile of those procedures, the visit was a total success. The inmates were glad to gel the opportunity to play outsiders, and the chess club was grateful for the experience of visiting Attica. In fact. Nesenoff said that whenever the chess club plays other schools from now on. his team will spread the word in hopes of gelling other teams to visit Attica also.

College, were occupied by students protesting budget cutbacks as The Spectrum went to press'Friday.In a related event, a student here was arrested Friday afternoon in front of Hayes Hall. A small group of students had attempted to enter the building to give President Robert Ketter a list of anti-cutback demands, but it was closed by Security by the time they arrived. Sophomore Stephen Kline was arrested on two counts of disorderly conduct, and will appear in City Court Wednesday. Students occupied administration buildings at Buffalo State, Binghamton. Fredonia, New Paltz, Old Westbury, Purchase, Suffolk Community College, and Hudson Vally Community College last week. Demands The decision to occupy Grover Cleveland Hall at Buffalo State was reached ht a meeting of about 60 students there Thursday night. A member of the Buffalo State Alliance Against Cutbacks explained that the decision came following an anti-cutback-rally held last Tuesday in Albany, and after the administration buildings at Fredonia and New Paltz were occupied last Wednesday. The Buffalo State students were at first denied entrance to the building, but President E.K. Fretwell finally agreed to let them stay on the first floor. The Students have vowed to stay until their demands are * met. T • ’ Specific demands of the Buffalo State students were that the college abandon plans to convert certain,twelve-month positions to ten-month, which they feel would destroy many activities and services during the Summer Sessions; no cuts in financial aid; and no cutbacks at the campus Health Clinic. ■■ , State-wide alliance In addition, the Buff State students presented two demands made by the statewide Alliance Against Cutbacks: that amnesty and compensation be provided for students injured or arrested at Albany or at other anti-cutback actions, and that Governor Hugh Carey publicly apologize to those students; also, that the SUNY Board of Trustees hold open hearings at each of the four'University Centers (including here) to investigate what occurred at the Albany rally. The students also concur with the standing demands of the statewide Alliance: no termination of faculty, staff or University personnel and no forced layoffs by attrition: open admissions at SUNY .and at the City University of New York (CUNY); free tuition at SUNY and CUNY; an end to racism, sexism, ethnic discrimination, and anti-Semitism; administrations should not make but only implement policies decided by student-faculty-staff-community councils: and tracking systems should be ended in education and in jobs. Other standing demands are a cancellation of the state's debt payment system; elimination of tax shelters for banks and industrial corporations; a redistribution of thelhilitary budget; and no cutting of programs benefiting the poor or the working class. - ' ■ . Cut luxuries Students at. Fredonia took over the administration building last Wednesday, pledging to remain until demands were met. These included institution of a student-faculty committee to study cuts and a reconsideration of funding such luxuries as closed-circuit television and campus beautification efforts while programs are being cut back. The Fredonia students scheduled a meeting with two state , legislators Friday night to discuss theor positions. Students at Purchase, located in Westchester County near New York City, met with Chairwoman of the SUNY Board of Trustees on Friday. Elizabeth T. Moore. Moore said their demand for Trustees meetings at each University Center had merit, and that she would bring it up at the next meeting. About T50 students had occupied their administration building last Wednesday. Retaliation Administration officials at Old Westbury stopped handing out all Basic Education Opportunity Grant (BEOG) checks and student paychecks, apparently in retaliation for occupation of the administration building by 40 students there Thursday. Administration spokespersons said this was because the Bursar’s Office is in the occupied building, but the protestors insist that they are only occupying the fourth and fifth floors and that the Bursar’s Office is on the third floor. Demands of the Old Westhury students include; reversion to an earlier admissions system which favored Third World and older students; and continuation of year-round housing, child-card bilingual programs that serve the school's large Hispanic population. In addition, a student strike at Old Westhury has shut doWn most ? classes. Committees About 60 students are occupying the administration building at SONY Binghamton, and have been there since Thursday. Binghamtos’s to agreed President Clark has their demand for a student-faculty-staff-worker committee to oversee program and personnel decisions, although it is unclear whether that committee would be able to make official decisions. In addition, students sat in at administration buildings at Hudson Valley Community College and Suffolk Community College, but could pot be reached for comment.' The rash of building occupations came a few days after a rally of SUNV and CUNY students at the Capitol Building in Albany which received wide publicity and helped revive anti-cutback efforts throughthe two university systems. The SpECTI\UM Vol. 26. No. 66 Monday, 22 March 1976 State University of New York at Buffalo Analysis Ketter at forum tomorrow President Robert Ketter agreed to a Student Association (SA) request Friday afternoon to speak at a forum in Norton Hall tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m. The* forum will be broadcast live on WBFO. The state budget approved Wednesday by the Legislature contained SS2 million less for the State University than was provided in this year’s budget. Campuses throughout the state face program retrenchments, layoffs, increases in tuition and room and board, and decreases in financial aid to individual students. At' the same time, the University of Buffalo is currently engaged in debate over the interim report of the President’s Committee on Academic*PIannin& which many fear will play a strong part in deciding which programs will be cut. The interim report has been criticised for singling out for criticism mainly those programs which can be called innovative, and those which benefit minority and working people. likely that the budget and the PCAP will It is dominate discussion at tomorrow’s forum. out that no dollar report"; values were conveyed in the But he adds that eventually, internal reallocations willy have to be made to move the University toward whatever final proposals are adopted. “1 think it would be foolish to claim that all Deans and Provosts are necessarily going to ignore the interim report -in calculating the budget reductions we are now having to make.” It is precisely this that the report will become that a measuring stick for the retrenchment worries so many of its critics. For although it will never be designated a “budget document,” the feport becomes one if only because people will use it as the only existing basis for the cuts. Another consideration is that the report will become a consideration in planning future SUNY budgets by members of the Central Administration in Albany, or by members of the legislature or the Governor’s staff. - — , Strong support In the weeks since assembled' faculty members 'voted “no confidence" in the interim report and Jo “reconstitute” the committee itself, both Ketter, and now the Faculty Senate Fxeculive Committee, have issued strong statements in support of the PCAP and Us report. As fast as faculty-criticised the report, so Ketter criticised them. After the no confidence vote February 27. Ketter said he would lake into account the small number of faculty present for the vote <150 in attendance dwindled to 103 by the lime of the tally), and would , do nothing until he had received advice front" the Faculty Senate executive -Committee. Immediately after the vote an unscheduled issue of the Hf/ntacr for the following Thursday was instated to keep the University "appraised' of the controversial events on campus." Ketter was present but silent throughout the • meeting. At the top of the special issue of the Reporter. was a question and answer commentary by Ketter of his response. Ketter said reaction to the report tyas predictable in that “those who did not receive favorable reviews have reacted more strongly than and more publicly. Simultaneously. I have others received- numerous comments and and letters which have been highly laudatory of the Committee and, its work."

As he has done all along. Ketter stressed the interim nature of the report. After the meeting. Senate chairman George Hochfield said, “Personally. 1 hope the Hxecutive Committee will repudiate the insult to Academic Planning,” referring to the vote. The letter from the Hxecutive Committee reaffirmed its confidence in the members of the PCAP, and simply asked it to go on with its next job by evaluating the interim report in the light of new evidence and criticisms that have been offered. This, the letter said, would resolve the doubt cast on the work by the “welter of counter-charges, and allegations.”' committee’s charges, The hxecutive Committee letter also stated that the interim report should not be the basis for short term budget cuts, and that revised versions be published without recommendations but purely as an academic document. Budget document? With the state budget waiting only for Governor Carey’s signature to become law, it is anticipated here that the PCAP report will become a "budget document.” or a guide for the cuts that will have to be made in the coming weeks arid months. The University needed a S6 million increase to maintain itself at the current level. It received a S500.000 increase instead.

In any case, Ketter will apparently try to justify the academic planning committee's role even in the heated atmosphere of the budget crisis, (For one thing, it looks now as if the committee will definitely not be reconstituted, as was called for in the faculty vote.)

Antonia Brico Breaking male domination by Randi Schnur ArtsEditor If you missed the film about her life and work (mentioning both at once is alrhbst a redundancy), if you have never seen the articles praising her in Ms. Magazine, the New York Times and elsewhere, you owe it to yourself to learn about Antonia Brico at last. If the wonderful Judy Collins-Jill Godmilow film or any of the publicity Dr. Brico has received during her more than 45 years on concert stages has already reached you, you probably know enough not to pass up an opportunity to liear the conductor’s fascinating stories firsthand. Since everybody alive fits into one of these two categories, tomorrow night’s Student Association Speakers’ Bureau program will offer something for everyone. Antonia Brico, the brave and brilliant woman who has devoted a lifetime to breaking into the male-dominated world of professional music, will make her University debut in the Fillmore Room at 8 p.m. Brico began winning critical acclaim in 1930 when, at the age of 28, she became the first woman to ever to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic thunderous applause which carried all the way back to her home in California, where she was invited for her American debut only five months later. But the outrage of the musical establishment finally drowned out even the praise of supporters like Arthur Rubinstein and Bruno Walter, and by the end of the decade, her career had ground nearly to a halt. resulted in an invitation to open the 1974 New American Filmmakers Series at Manhattan’sWhitney Museum.

This was necessary to supplement FSA’s limited financial support. Currently, the Craft Center is open Monday through Friday. 9 a.m. to 10 p.m. In addition, throughout the year, special two, four and eight-week workshops in other crafts such as tie dying, candle making and batik are scheduled.

Registration continued to increase, reaching a high of 1100 students during the 73-74 academic year. Originally, funds from student activity fees paid for part-tune instructors salaries and supplies such as kilns and potters wheels, while funds from the Faculty Student Association (FSA) paid the salaries of the full-time employees. These two sources of financial support allowed the center to operate without charging a membership fee, so students only had to pay for their materials. this In fall, 1974, due to the administration’s dissatisfaction with centralized Craft Center was dual funding, the financial control of the so that FSA maintained all the records while Sub Board only issued monetary grants upon request.

The kiln, a type of furnace used to create the finished product from an item of modeled clay was originally operated by burning wood in early Chinese and Japanese pottery. Today it is commonly run by electricity or gas. Practical crafts In the early stages of the craft, people threw and hand built pots strictly for practical purposes. The pots and bowls created were solely used as containers for holding grain, food and water. Any artistic elements were purely coincidental and unimportant because the form for each item was developed from its intended function. The skills and knowledge necessary for pottery production were simply passed down through each family, thus contributing to characteristic functional styles for each isolated culture. Exchange of methods and ideas between civilizations was virtually non-existent. As methods of transportation improved, communication between originally isolated cultures developed. Man became more sure of his existence as a race so that his earlier concentration on the essentials of survival could be broadened and diffused. With continual traveling, trade developed so that cultures more proficient in certain crafts began devoting some time to the production of iteips for commercial exchange. Eventually, as competition in each area developed, decorative and artistic styles were added, sacrificing earlier practicality. Crafts as art Work with metals shows a similar history which began with the development of functional toolmaking, and eventually developed into the creation of bracelets, rings and other jewelry as we know it today. A look at the more immediate history of crafts reveals that as late as the 1940’s crafts were not recognized in their own right. Art was painting, sculpting, and drawing, only considered to be “fine arts” while crafts were labeled as hobbies and time-filling for example activities. New leisure time forced exposure to the European world of crafts due to World War II, and the prosperous era of the 1950’s in America all contributed to the beginning of the development of present day hand crafts. The Hippie movement of the 1960’s broadened the craft base established in the 1950’s, and interest in leather crafting, ceramics and weaving skyrocketed. Its philosophy promoted returning to nature, working with the hands, and creating for personal consumption, all as a rejection of the materialistic values which developed from commercialization and mass production.'-An appreciation for - — in 335 Norton Union —continued on page 8— Monday, 22 March 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . 1 �Cohen, Gould, Elson for IRC presidency The Intdr-Residence Council (IRC) will hold annual elections for officers on Wednesday and Thursday, March 24 and 25.

We would also explore the of a continuous possibilities by ambulance service run experienced and medically trained student volunteers. Along with these proposals, Renaissance has many other ideas to make IRC more responsive to dormitory student needs. As Treasurer and member of the Executive Committee of IRC this past year, I have helped direct day-to-day . operation. I have served as a voting member of IRCB, Inc. Board of Directors and am therefore knowledgeable with the workings of the businesses. As part of my duties as Treasurer, I worked with the administration serving on both the University Fiscal Review Board and the Campus Review Board as well as the Amherst Council. I have helped the WIRR expansion to Governor’s a reality this year through actions of the Finance Committee of which I chair. Serving as the link between the present and the new incoming administration, I plan to correct the inadequacies from the past, continue our valuable present policies and create new programs to enable IRC to advance to new endeavors rather than fall into its yearly rut, traditionally a totally new elected administration. In order for Renaissance to achieve its goals, it is necessary to have an administration that can Howard Cohen Renaissance development The of the with its Amherst Campus, expansion of dormitory living space, has greatly affected IRC.

Renaissance intends to stress a connotation usually comes to greater degree of cooperation with mind. This is then followed by a scrounging up of the face and many wry comments. IRC should not have a reputation of being an uncaring, impenetrable organization run by a bunch of incompetents. The problems that IRC faces in order to become more efficient are not insurmountable, they just have to be given time and thought while being worked upon. The first step in this process is to enact mandatory office hours that will be kept. This way, someone with a problem or question can have it answered on the spot. Confiscated T.D. cards do not have to take a month to be returned. A long rigamarole should not be a mandatory step in the settling of student grievances. This is not to say that someone will be there to respond to you every hour of the day. That is impossible, and only a fool would argue otherwise. If one of the officers is not there, then the secretary on duty will take a message during the day, and I will get back to it. A dormitory doesn’t close at 5 p.m. every afternoon. I can get back to the student later that night. It is no problem to do so if you give a damn and are willing to do the COST LOW CHARTERS TO EUROPE! We offer all student services such as International I.D. cards, Body. Concerts, beer blasts and other parties or events are not that hard to sponsor if someone just bothers to find out what is really happening. IRC now has the potential to do a lot. We are a viably funded organization and now we are also valid student government. Student rights and services are things that must be upheld and defended, but the job of the next IRC president is clear. IRC should start returning the feepayers’ monies with events. The job of the next IRC president is to make it a true activities organization. To do this he has to work hard, use his imagination, and above all, be open and ready and accessible to all who wish to comment or a question. Eric Gould Aim week is great. It should continue. But the recent parties were poor as a result of bad scheduling and last minute publicity. In addition, I am in favor of rock concerts for next year. Secondly, is the idea of dealing with administration the forcefully. For example, many people say there is nothing we can do to prevent dorm rents and tuition from going up. This isn’t so. I would urge parents and students, by letter, not to pay their bill. Without the money the University couldn’t run. They would then be forced to roll back the increases. This idea may seem radical now but when you get your bill, you will think that it is sensible. This idea is similar to the IRC Food Service Boycott two years ago which resulted in Food down and backing Service reinstating one semester meal contracts. 1 will continue to press housing to install better cooking facilities in Governors. I also intend to make sure that no student has to live in a 40 degree room. 1 want additional heaters installed in those cold rooms or Housing may be faced with a class action suit. These are a few of my ideas. I want to hear some of yours. After all, IRC is your organization. If and hard-working it’s a knowledgeable person you want as President, I’m the one.

I also think a tougher attitude in dealing with the administration is a necessity if we are to have a say in decisions made which ultimately affect us.

The Allentown area probably has the largest numbers, there are several near the University. These “alternative” bookstores range from cooperatives to collectives to independent ownership yet they have one thing in common: small size generally allows for more assistance from employees and a more pleasant, personal atmosphere. •The first thing one notices about People’s Bookstore, 9 West Northrup Place, are the numerous posters adorning the walls. These colorful prints are not hung solely for decoration. They carry slogans of the beliefs held by the people who run the bookstore (“Stop the Solidarity in Chile!” Killing, / worker. People's Bookstore was started as an alternative to the regular supermarket-type of bookstore. It specializes in books with a •Marxist-Leninist view of communism. The shelves are stocked with books on Black liberation, labor history, women’s struggles, socialism, political economy, peace and detente. According to another worker, the store’s collection on working class and union history is one of the most extensive in Western New York. Also stocked are books on art, poetry and literature (mostly Soviet). Certain periodicals which are difficult to obtain locally are carried. The Daily World is available, as well as Political Affairs, Young Worker, Labor Today, World Marxist Review, Jewish Affairs and Freedomways. Many of the books in People’s Bookstore are imported from the Soviet Union. Certain Soviet-published titles can be bought at lower prices because of the cheaper cost of printing in the USSR. A hard cover two-volume' Sholokhav’s The Virgin Soil Upturned was only $4. Two of the most notable publishers represented in People’s Bookstore are the Communist Party’s International Publishers and the USSR’s Progress Publishers. Ownership unknown The question of who actually owns the bookstore was never answered. The store is staffed by volunteers- Two people are “in charge” of the store’s operation. One volunteer said that People’s Bookstore is run by a collective, yet the nature of the collective was not explained. It was understood that the in ownership is presently transition. The volunteers of People’s Bookstore would like to enlarge on their activities in the community. As more money comes in, the store plans to initiate Marxist study groups. One volunteer offered to help students with papers on topics which the clearly . bookstore has material on People's Bookstore carries books on people and subjects unavailable which may be elsewhere, such as Paul Robeson and Kwame Nkruma. It was surprising to note a lack of literature in other related fields, though. This is due to the bookstore’s association with the USCP. The USCP prescribes to the Soviet system of communism. which conflicts ideologically with the Chinese system. Therefore, there are no Maoist works to be found. Trotskyite writings are also not carried. ■ ‘ —continued on page 10— “Viva Puerto Rico Libre” and “Solidarity with Palestinian People”).

It is not human mistakes or human-flaws that are bad, it is the ignorance of our own mistakes and the amplification of our own human flaws in other people. We don’t like to show mistakes or flaws, so avoiding we avoid the commitments. In outside the realm of commitments, we feel secure the nitty gritties of life. But this avoidance eventually leads to feelings of alienation and apathy. When the illusion breaks down, we may become even or we can plunge into more bitter and cynical life by not being afraid to be human. In pondering too much what the others’ reactions will be, we deprive ourselves of useful experience. It is ironic that the illusion of infallibility and injiocence becomes a stepping stone for inconsiderate and undesirable actions. George Bernard Shaw once wrote, “It is a shame that youth has to be wasted on young people.” Our youthful vigor can encompass: both fun and constructive purposes to start with, awareness of our own personal relation to the world. Where does our waste go when we flush the toilet? Where dpes our water and electricity come from? How can I be an efficient consumer? If we do not attempt to even ask these basic questions, we will be at a loss to understand how our country operates and how each individual affects it. “The world” is not some abstract force that affects us innocent creatures. We all contribute in some way to make the world what it is. Let us not become cynical and irresponsible. To repeat my main point, our actions hinge on how we conceive ourselves as being a part of the world.

A salutation which has become at least L somewhat more respectable with the demise of the /1U //VI It may b e that someone or two out there bySteese has noted the absence of this particular use of space of late. I have doubts about how many people lamented it, but someone might have missed it. I assume I must have, or I would not be back again. Why I am back is something I am not certain about... but then my decision to stop writing for a while was somewhat murky also. (This whole first part is liable to be a soul search or a justification for or for coming back or for all going away three besides whatever else I can think of, so if you want to skip ahead to the more interesting stuffi feel free.) The precipitating event which led me to stop writing, or to decide not to resume after vacation, was the breakup of a relationship. An experience that a number of people have probably experienced on their own, and that at least some have vicariously experienced in this column. Well, friends, here we are again. (Pardon me if I occasionally lapse into defensive levity, as you will dealing with it still is not so easy probably find out further along.) To be more accurate, we are talking about the confusion of feelings following the end of the relationship. (I do wish my hands would stop shaking while I try to type.) It started out as one of those modern, adult, well-mannered separations. It did not stay that way terribly long. I am not, as you recall, a great holiday season person. The relationship ended in early December, and was followed after a brief initial period by a horrendous nose dive. I do not handle depression well... which is as gross an understatement in this specific instance as you may ever see. But then, what do I know about how you or anyone else handles depression? The actual details are not of great importance, I suspect that all of us have been through mechanically similar situations at one time or another. One of artifacts of the situation, however, was that the woman involved and myself continued to work in the same place, as did the man that she began to spend most of her time with. Which I had surely known at the time of the original friendly separation, but had somehow completely blocked. (Sometimes I am not so bright.)

Jammal, Chairman of Graduate Studies, School of Architecture and Environmental Design, offers the following definitionsof these three areas: Environmental Design, Architecture and Urban Planning are related fields of study. Environmental Design is not a profession but a Held of study which addresses a complexity of interacting natural and man-generated systems which are necessary to initiate support and maintain^human activities. It is the principle part of that broad knowledge base necessary for the professions of Architecture and Urban Planning. v Both Architecture and Urban Planning are professional fields of study. They haVfe the characteristic practice of “rendering a service” to society. The practicing Architect is concerned with designing and generation of the built environment in response to performance requirements of human needs and behavior; using the techniques of the day in the context of prevailing societal institutions. The Urban Planner as a practicing professional shares similar concerns with the Architect but can specialize in other types of areas. Generally, he is not only concerned with the built environment, but also with the systems of human activities in that environment, the range of service systems which support structure activities and operation procedures which regulate and manage all of them. When he plans with and for the Urban Community,'he is not only attempting tp solve current problems, but he is also attempting to satisfy the future desires and expectations of the community by identifying courses of action which would minimize the recurrence or emergence of problems in the future. He is primarily concerned with change of time. > What is the Office of University Placement and Career Guidance? It is the Office where students can: Establish a placement file which can be used in job seeking 2. Provide information regarding full-time employment after graduation as well as listing part-time job listings. *3.. Offer career guidance for those who are not sure what career they wish to seek. The University Placement and Career Guidance Office is located in Hayes Annex C, Room 6 (831-5291). ' What is a Placement File? A placement file contains references from former teachers and employers .attesting to your abilities which prospective employers and graduate and professional schools utilize in evaluating you for a job or for further schooling. - difficult." The place I work is far better than lots of places. There is an openness and sensitivity that is rare and valuable. The lady in question is bright, sensitive and eminently likable. Not surprisingly, most of the people in such a place went on caring about her. The reality being that nothing had occurred to disturb their relationships with her. The depth of the change in my relationship with her, was however, impossible for me to ignore. Friends, it may be that guilt by association is very bad law and morality, but it sure as hell is an emotional reality. Which in itself is a very hard admission for an old line politcal radical/liberal which touches of late sixties hippiness to make. (Just what I needed, to feel guilty about my feelings again.)-Anybody associating with anybody who hurts me, hurts me. How’s that for a statement with several gaping holes that anyone who struggled through elementary logic will clearly recognize? Try it in a ven diagram and see what happens. So what does a nice reasonable and rational - sort of like rne do when it person becomes inescapably clear that I, excuse me, obviously I mean to say they instead of I ... . . . ... ... are behaving in a most irrational and there unreasonable way? ■ In addition to which, several ... even more difficult discriminations are going on involving a need to understand and control what goes on inside me. (Obviously it is mad to try and control the entire world of external things, so it. must obviously be more sensible to try and understan4 and control everything that goes on within ones’ head. Isn’t logic a wonderful tod?) Item: It is obviously unreasonable to start out feeling all right about something, and only later on discover that you are extremely hurt and furious. Item: It is not reasonable, rational or productive to have feelings about people when most of the situation is your fault... and since you are in control of everything that goes on inside you, clearly everything is your fault. Addendum item to previous item: Since the feelings of emptiness, loss and lack of acceptance are connected to history beyond any one individual it is emotionally dishonest to blame any one person for your immediate feelings. The answer to the initial” question of the previous paragraph is, in my own case, one gets even weirder than one was before. The equation clearly is too complex for solution in any absolute or practical terms, so you run. Eventually you go back to' the necessary staff meetings and you ride it out as best you can, bleeding somewhat much of the time through poorly formed scabs. You avoid the people who connect themselves most clearly to the two other people that cause most of the pain, because of the guilt by association, but then you chase your own tail by being guilty about doing things to people who didn’t do anything. And you'spend a whole bunch of your time trying to understand how you can be this angry and hurt by somebody you obviously don’t care about anymore? (The best answer to the last implied question wins as much free beer as it can drink in an hour. It may even being along whomever wrote it.) So, in general you wind up pulling back further and further, piling controls on top of controls, since ihere is no possible way to change the situation. And you hate a little perhaps, but mostly you wait. And wait. And wait. And prepare yourself to wait longer, much longer, for that constant reminder to go away. Actually it isn’t a constant reminder. For all you psych freaks, it’s a variable reinforcement schedule. Sometimes you go for a week or two without a jolt, deluding yourself into thinking you finally turned the corner, and then you turn a real corner and zap, there you go again. Being civilized is a loser, ladies and gentlemen, an unequivocal, consistent loser. But all us middle class intellectual types,’ in, case you hadn’t noticed, get paid off for not making waves interpersonally. Which leaves you the odd gory fantasy. , One last difficulty I might mention is the problem of deciding what is legitimate self-exploration, and what is self-pity. The best formula for that discrimination gets to join the earlier mentioned answer in drinking beer. me, having Enough, Cry Hold. Damn babbled on much too long as juts, yes? Anyway, there are several very selfish reasons why I came back. Writing this thing is cathartic, I get to umpire the annual The Spectrum picnic softball game, and how can anyone resist the opportunity to comment on the current political madness abroad in the land. There is a social reason also. A number of years back a series of very nice people did me a great goodness by working very hard to convince me i fell within the normal and acceptable range of human beings, even though f was a little weird. I was reminded by a new friend of mine, through friends of hers, that occasionally it helps to know that you are not the only person who struggles, gets lost, and is uncdftain about the wky out, much less the way home. Pain is part of being human and being alive. We all share it, most of us hide it. By doing it we choose to be alone, even though we need not be. Which, while somewhat crazy is still very human.

Presently, interest in well-crafted, individualized items remains, but the goals of craftsmanship will be threatened if profitable intentions take over the innocent beginning of the 1960’s. Those who’ve chosen crafts as their livelihood are finding mass production a valuable method, but at the same time, are unwilling to sacrifice the quality of the product. There is hope that because of the exposure created in the ’60’s, enough people are sincerely involved in crafts so that this conflict in philosophy between mass producing and the “one of a kind” idea win never result in the mass producers being the victors. To others, dabbling in a craft represents a fulfilling, enjoyable experience; Anne Martinchek, a member of the Creative Craft Center, and a novice in working with clay and the potter’s wheel expressed her enjoyment and satisfaction in working with her hands to create. When questioned about her desire to sell her work, Martincheck explained, so making and selling would become "The purpose is to create But if the feeling of creating was taken totally separate aspects away, selling must stop... selling would be secondary and experimental.” Another member of the Craft Center views his involvement with a kind of mind/body therapy. Selling clay as, “more than a hobby would require some compromising, but you still must please yourself.” He added, “I see ceramics more as a process than a product, the process bejng a matter of skillwith the potential of being art.” ... .. . - Co: Schussmeisters!!!

The Sewer Authority has lequested a permit to build a bulkhead 376 feet long, and 50 feet wide, parallel to the Niagara shoreline. A bulkhead is a structure designed to resist water pressure. This bulkhead would extend 40 feet into the river, which has already been narrowed in the last few years. The Urban Waterfront Advisory Committee has noted that just 20 years ago, the river was 3000 feet wide at this point, while it is now just 2000 feet wide there. The United States government now owns only 200 feet on this side of the International boundary line, and the proposed bulkhead would reduce this by 20 percent. This bulkhead, the UWAC says, will have a serious impact upon the wildlife and water level of the river. It is expected to be quite damaging to the migratory patterns of several species of fish, for fashion. They claim that these conditions arc .not currently being mfct. Every economic study undertaken in the past few years, the UWAC maintains, has shown environmental quality is one pf the most important issues in attracting new industry to the Niagara Frontier. They contend that the BSA has been guilty of “near total disregard” of the' environmental quality of the river area. * Public meeting The UWAC has urged the public to attend a meeting at the Buffalo Museum of Science on Tuesday, Match 30, at 7:30 p.m., which is being held by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, and to express their opinions on the BSA proposals. They specifically urge people to request that the BSA be required to apply for their full amount of desired bulkheading at one time, rather than in smaller sections that do not appear to be as potentially harmful to the environment.

Solomon said the savings on coaching thanks to Babus’ offer should make it possible for fencing to continue as a varsity sport. Babus currently serves under coach Jim Merchant as an assistant coach. In spite of a lack of practice thne, good equipment and understaffing, the fencers still somehow managed to complete a fairly successful season capped by a creditable fifth place finish at fencing the North Atlantic championships held last weekend at William Patterson College in New Jersey.

He added that since tournaments like the North Atlantics are open only to varsity teams, much of the incentive for Bull fencers would be lost. Solomon forecasted that a club team could not endure more than one season. Free coach no guarantee It is hard to predict at this time whether or not a free coach would result in the reinstatement of fencing. Director of Athletics Harry Fritz believes that a free coach could be very instrumental in keeping fencing alive. “It might help the situation along quite a bit,” observed Fritz who added that he could not foresee offhand any objections to such a move from within the Athletic Financial Department. Assemblyperson Bert Black agreed with Fritz that the free coach would help the fencing cause considerably, but he warned that it is no guarantee for maintaining In fact, the squad’s epee team finished second in the 13 team tournament, and only Solomon’s 5-4 loss against eventual champion Cornell stopped the Bulls from winning the epee competition.

CAC spokespersons said the workshop on “Military Spending and Full Employment” reiterated the fact that “a high level of military spending creates unemployment.” “An analysis of the years 1968 through 1972 indicates that the net annual job loss nation wide, when the military budget averaged about $80 billion, was about 840,000 jobs,” according to Michigan Public Interest Research Group figures. The B-l Bomber is a manned supersonic weapon system with nuclear armament capabilities, adaptable for use in conventional warfare. According to Defense Department estimates, the B-l would cost approximately $92 billion over a 30-year period. “Stop the B-l Bomber Meet Human Needs” was the theme of a conference-in Washington, D.C. last week that was sponsored by this Rational Campaign to Stop the B-l Bomber and the Cosdlfoon for a New Foreign Policy. The conference was attdhflTO by members of the Community Action Corps (CAC) aflcf the Graduate Student Association (GSA) and included workshops on “Military Spending and Full Employrmjnt,” “The Arms Race,” and lobbying techniques. The Western New York Peace Center and the Community Action Organization (CAO) were also represented', along with groups from 32 other states. CAC and Peace Center representatives Gary Cutler, Clyde LaGraves and Walter Simpson spoke with local Congressmen Jack Kemp, Henry Nowak, John LaFalce and aides to Senators Jacob Javits and William Buckley concerning the B-l Bomber and military budget issues. - Deception “Some states gained in employment because of military contracts during that time,” LaGraves said. “Texas gained most with about 133,000 jobs while New York’s net annual loss was approximately 426,000 jobs,” he reported. The workshop on “Military Spending and the Arms Race” revealed that the United States greatly outnumbers the Soviet Union in armament capabilities.

By definition, a “people’s bookstore” should include books for a wide spectrum of readers. People i Bookstore practices a policy of censorship through its omission of many works.

With simple decor, easy-going its workers, and solid collection, Everyone’s is a refuge from the of 'neighboring majority bookstores; there are no long lines and book order forms. There is no sense of being dn a book buying conveyor belt. Everyone’s Bookstore has been run as a cooperative since May non-profit As a 1 975. corporation, the bookstore is not owned by a single individual. Rather, it is run jointly, by a group of members. A membership fee of $5 yearly 10 percent entitles one to discounts on all purchased books. Members are also required to of the 12 to any belong committees which are in charge of the various aspects of the store. Committees are divided by fields of interest, such as social sciences, children, women’s literary arts, non-literary arts, religion, spiritual and occult books. Members may choose their committee. The work mainly involves stocking the store and suggesting new titles. An alternative to participating on a Main Street, committee is working in the store. There are presently 340 members. There are only two paid workers at Everyone’s. These full time coordinators have the final decision on ordering books, though committees have a lot of say on which books will be carried. If a committee sets a high priority on a certain title, chances are, it will be ordered. Everyone’s Bookstore does not seem to be having trouble with competition from larger bookstores. “We are doing very well,” said Jon Welch, a coordinator. “We arc filling a need for books that other stores don’t carry.” The selections in poetry, fiction, and political and social theory are particularly extensive.

Enraged bybudget cuts, students sit-in Vol. 26. No. 65 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 19 March 1976 April 2 deadline GSEU threatens to strike by Fredda Cohen Campus Editor The Employees graduate Student Union (GSEU) has theatened President Robert Ketter with a vote to strike if demands by the G$EU j are not “satisfactorally dealt with” by April 2. In a letter to Ketter dated March IS, GSEU stated “Teaching Assistants (TA) and 1 Graduate Assistants (GA) at this University are faced with what you have acknowledged to be an ‘increasingly critical set of problems’ problems which your administration has done very little to alleviate. We can no longer accept your administration’s irresponsibility in these matters... In the event that GSEU’s demands are not satisfactorally dealt with by that time (April 2), TA’s and GA’s at this University will vote to stop work.” Approximately 40 percent of all undergraduate contact hours are conducted by TA’s. The letter was issued in response to a letter that Ketter sent to GSEU President Howard Kling which appeared in the February 26 edition of the Reporter. Ketter’s letter was published one week after three representatives of the GSEU presented a petition to Ketter signed by 350 TA’s and GA’s, plus gad itTonal support petitions carrying 3,000 signatures. Throughout that week, demonstrations and rallies were conducted on campus to express further student support. - Funding problems The five GSEU demands are a minimum salary of $4000 per year and a guaranteed tuition Th8 letter also questioned Ketter’s attitude upon issuing these budget requests. In a Itter to Graduate Student Association (GSA) President Terry DiFlilippo, Ketter wrote “I (do) not at all accept the notion that graduate teaching assistants [are] ‘overworked, underpaid and exploited,’ but rather [state] that in some instances there is ample evidence and documentation that some do not work at all.” GSEU argues that with this type of attitude, it is hardly likely to receive any increase. Regarding the second demand, Ketter said the restoration of personnel lines was outside his realm of authority, naming the New York State Legislature the waiver, the reinstatement of the 165 cut graduate lines, guaranteed funding for the required duration of all TA and GA degree programs, accident and liability insurance, and closer adherence to Affrintative Action guidelines in TA and GA hiring. Calling the increased stipend provision a problem that is “simply one of funding,” Ketter claimed that the budget requests of his administration have included increased financial support for graduate students. However, he stated, “When the Governor’s budgets have been released, they have contained no stipend increments as requested and, additionally this year, have eliminated State University scholarships for graduate schools.” He stated that the priorities for budget restoration would be the stipend increases and reinstatement of graduate and ‘ _ only body empowered to authorize such actions. “In a time when the Senate is eliminating some 8000 positions, it is highly unlikely that these lines will be restored,” he wrote. scholarships, professional and although he was “powerless” to make decisions concerning items of the budget, he would use “every reasonable means of persuasion” to have tuition waivers granted as well. Fewer TA’s and GA’s He also said budget figures indicate that from the fiscal 1974—75 year up until now, there have been only 39.2' cuts as opposed to the GSEU’s estimate of 165. The GSEU upheld its estimate, claiming, “In reality, according to figure* released by the Office of Employee Relations in sworn legal Appease graduate employees The GSEU charged in its letter that this yras just an “attempt to appease graduate employees" as the Governor stated that there documents and in fact according to information released by thlfc SUNYAB Payroll Department, there are 165 fewer TA’s and GA’s emplyed this year than last would He no supplemental budget to increase these funds. Yet eren if the budget is passed and the salaries are increased to the maximum allowed by the Ctyduate School ($3905 per academic year), without the tuition waiver, the average graduate Student’s home pay will decrease by several hundred dollars, GSEU stated. - year.” The GSEU also charged that the Ketter administration holds “the power to secure funds to be used for TA and GA lines, to appropriate these monies for use —continued on page 2— by Rob Cohn ' Contributing Editor In a dramatic response the impending legislative approval of an austerity budget for SUNY as recommended in Governor Carey’s Executive Budget, enraged students at two different State University colleges, occupied central administration buildings Wednesday. Students at Purchase and Fredonia refused to leave until demands for an open hearing with Chancellor Ernest Boyer were met. Fiscal committees in the state legislature recommended an additional $3.1 million cut in the SUNY budget. Approved by the State Senate Tuesday, and now before the Assembly, the budget includes an additional $210,000 reduction at this University. The student protestors at Purchase, who still occupied the administration offices at press time, say they will remain despite a threatened court injunction which would require them to vacate the building. The Purchase “Fight Back” Committee said in a statement that, “it was necessary to take decisive action because the Board of Trustees has not responded to student appeals for a dialogue on the controversial tuition hikes and budget cuts.” Their key demand calls for an open hearing With the Trustees at a SUNY campus, to discuss < the various grievances at length. 300 participate John Angelroy, a spokesman for the Purchase protestors, indicated that 300 students participated in the initial building takeover and said about 300 more subsequently joined the original group. In their statement, the Purchase “Fight Back” Committee called for a solidarity coalition of students and workers across the state, whose education and job lines are being “slashed, their voices going unheeded in the decision-making process.” .Angelroy said that the seige group met with little resistance (only three people were in the building when it was occupied). “Many of the Purchase faculty;” he added, “sympathizes with the students’ demands , and joined the sit-in.” Apparently, last Tuesday’s Albany demonstration has reignited student protests at individual campuses. The Fredonia students called for a general strike Thursday for the restoration of cuts in the SUNY budget. TTiere are unconfirmed reports that students at SUNY Binghamton are also planning a general strike. New Paltz has become active in the “stop the cuts movement”; a large sit-in demonstration was heir) Wednesday, March 10. Details of the Fredonia protest were unavailable. “The protests have drawn attention to of the situation, but what is really needed is a united*R©trtTepresSntative of all the colleges in the State University and City University of New York (CUNY) systems,” said Andrea Torriccc, a spokesperson for the Purchase “Fight Back” Committee. SUNY Central administration member Clifton Thome provided some insight into how the Board of Trustees views the “stop the cuts” fight. Thome said many legislators were upset over the destruction and violence committed during last Tuesday’s demonstration in Albany, adding that much could have been accomplished but that the demonstration’s good intent was overshadowed by the mayhem. ' Two arrests Violence mars protest Albany against budget cuts by Laufe Bartlett Campus Editor Violence, property damage and two' arrests marred Tuesday’s student protest in Albany against cutbacks in the State University (SUNY) and City University of New York (CUNY) budgets. Ten to twelve thousand SUNY and CUNY students gathered in the state capital to march around the Legislative Office Buildings in a demonstration co-sponsored by the CUNY United Student Senate (USS) and the Student Association of the State University (SA&). The event was planned as the culmination of SASU’s Annual Legislative Conference. The students beat back Capitol Police and SASU and USS marshalls, storming the Legislative Office Building and Capitol entrances. Smashing through the Capitol’s glass doors, the mob shattered display cases containing a Bicentennial exhibit of American military flags. Other demonstrators vandalized the Justice Department .Building, pulling out several telephone wires. Angry CUNY ‘ i < I . ■. . Demonstrators marched through the building chanting, toward, the “Carey, you liar!” Governor’s office, but he had left the building for safety. The peaceful crowd on the Capitol steps was apparently riled to violence by speakers who called for militant action against state budget cuts. Some of the speakers identified themselves as members of the national Revolutionary Student Brigade. The violence erupted before most of the scheduled speakers, including USS president Maynard Jones and SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick, could address the crowd. About two-thirds of the demonstrators were students angered by the City’s most-recent $36 million cut in the system’s financing, and state legislation offering little additional aid. According to one Assemblyman, the most liberal plan being considered by the legislature only calls for matching state funds with rapidly diminishing City funds. Over 100 busloads of CUNY students joined 1500 students from SUNY Albany, 1000 from SUNY Binghamton, 800 from New Paltz and hundreds of others from almost all SUNY’S other universities and community colleges. The planned non-violent demonstration and speakers program was also endorsed by —continued on page 6— �m --- r^V ' v ‘ ’ ■*'-'a ‘• £ ?Iff 1 f tt ff/j!; f ?

Leichter could not get a co-sponsor for his bill that year, and it was not seriously considered by the Assembly Codes Committee. In 1973, Leichter re-submitted the same bill. He got five co-sponsors, but it was again bottled up in the Codes Committee. Efforts by Leichter and others during the 1974 session succeeded criminal penalties from the possession or non-profit transfer of two decriminalistion.

The release of funds will allow the pharmacy to purchase new supplies and clear debts left in limbo after Ketter blocked release of the funds in January. Ketter had said that funds would be frozen until Sub Board I agreed to transfer the license. The conflict between Sub Board and the University over control of the pharmacy was fought to a stalemate, according to Sub Board Health Services Director A1 Campagna, because “they (the administration) can’t do it without our money, and we need the building.” Sub Board retains “control” of the pharmacy despite the transfer of the license, according to Campagna. He said that because Sub Board owns the fixtures and the drugs it gives them control of the pharmacy’s services. Long-term agreement The transfer of the license to the University was a necessary consolation in order to get the funds released, said Campagna. He felt that if funds had not been released when they were, the pharmacy could have lost its credit with the drug companies that supply it. The School of Pharmacy internship program is fully operational Campagna said. The administration has agreed that the pharmacy does indeed serve ... has been a valid educational purpose, Campagna said, and it recognized as having teaching potential” both for patients and for pharmacy students.. The School of Pharmacy and Dean Michael Schwartz assist in running the pharmacy. The students who serve internships under the presiding pharmacist will learn the trade by keeping medication profiles on patients and in actual dispensing of drugs. Campagna said he hoped that the final details of the long-term agreement now being negotiated between the Administration and Sub Board will allow the pharmacy to “operate with a minimum of politicking and other outside influences.” “ —Vazquez Faigo dorm Small food coops thrive by Bob Rose Staff Writer in;' damn lazy to cook desserts,” calling Bartikofsky.

Most people have probably heard of the Polar Bear Club, that hardy band of adventurers who brave freezing waters for the sake of a swim on New Year’s Day each year, but few have heard about another group of stalwarts who show just as much, if not more, spirit and courage, the Lombas Association. Every year, for the past five years, when the full moon of March appears, the Lombas Celebration has been held in Cazenovia Park to commemorate its arrival. The traditional drink of Lombas is six shots of whiskey and six beers, and the traditional weather is terrible. This year was no exception. At Tuesday night’s celebration, it was the consensus of those present that the snowy conditions were almost as bad as the storm which hit the park during the second gathering of the faithful merrymakers, l?ut the party went on, nonetheless. Finest, cheapest ."c Joe Kaczfnarczak, one of the founders of the event, noted that the attendance at thiS year’s Lombas was down from previous events; but he attributed' this to 'the fact that a number of members of the association had to Vbtk that night, and there'were also a few who' attend out-of-town schnpls and did not make it back. ' As a result of 'this, only two bottles Of the “finest, cheapest whiskey available” were purchased, as opposed to a record five bottles last year. The participants gathered at their regular corner in South Buffalo at about 6 p.m. and proceeded to march over to the park, which is five blocks away. Then they strolled down the path to the Stone Bridge, the actual site of the celebration. The Stone Bridge used to straddle Cazenovia Creek, but a deepening of the creek as part of a flood control project many years ago made it a bridge over dry land. The 20-foot structure is now used only by the local, young drinkers, including the Lombas Association, who find it ideal for their purposes. " Spirited craziness The spirit of Lombas is that of brotherhood and craziness, as exemplified in the mixing of whiskey and beer. The minimum requirement of six shots and six beers still provides a challenge for the hardiest of members, and several participants have been known to experience a bit of nausea during the festivities. These people usually have decided not to renew their membership the next year. Two years ago, during the height of the streaking craze, two fellows decided to streak the local convent. About 20 minutes later, they returned to the park, exhausted but happy. However, they have since declined to repeat their adventure. Kaczmarczak is not sure how long the Lombas tradition will continue, as some of the members of the association have already married and more are planning to, but he and the other founders are determined that Lombas will continue for as long as that full moon continues to shine in March, which should be a long time.

It’s planned that way. Tell an airlines rep you’re planning a trip to Europe and talk is immediately frank and jabberwocky discarded trotted in. If, beneath the morass of obscure rules and jargon, your ticket pusher knows where to find the bargain basement fare, he won’t let on. This means you may inadvertently pay three times as much for your flight to Europe as the person sitting in the plane seat next to you. - To protect your life savings, here is a rundown on plane fare economics for travelling to Europe this summer: Standard fares: Standard fare flights overseas will make poverty your standard fare for the rest of the trip. These fares are always the most expensive and primarily designed for businessmen who aren’t picking up the tab anyway. For instance, a round-trip ticket from New York to London, purchased during the heavy summer tourist seasons, costs a whopping $767. That price tag is immutable; all major international airlines, with the exception of maverick Icelandic. Airlines,, are legally required to charge exactly the same fare. Youth fares: Those high fares have emptied a lot of planes flying to Europe. So in an attempt to lure aboard young passengers, the airlines recently revived international youth fares, touted as a savings bonanza for anyone under 22. Unfortunately, youth fares easily win second prize for the worst deal around. Round-trip youth fare from New York to London, leaving the U.S. during the summer, costs $465. to Compare that price of 5410 Icelandic’s youth charge and Air Canada’s charge of $376 for the same trip. Although Icelandic and Air Canada youth fares are reasonable for people planning lengthy stays in- Europe there are better up to a year to be had. bargains APEX: A favorite with travel agents, the Advance Purchase Excursion Fares (APEX) are — - ■ , ■ j designed for people planning an European adventure of 22 to 45 days. APEX flights are available to anyone regardless of age, but require some foresight. /Unlike youth or standard fares, you must shell out a non-refundable deposit of 25 percent of the price of your ticket to reserve a seat, and pay the full fare no later than two months before takeoff. the major Once again, international airlines are edged out of the price game by (CPS) is “Europe expensive,” intones a recent travel blurb in Mademoiselle magazine. “A realistic spending figure for almost everyone over 21 is $25 to $35 and even that doesn't buy luxury.” A budget like that may not buy luxury, but if you have the bank balance of most students, it’s guaranteed to buy a very short trip overseas. Although Europe on five bucks a day may be the smoke of old pipe dreams, there’s - — no need to kiss a small fortune goodbye. The trick is: check out your bargain basement travel options before you go Your best bet for a cheap summer in Europe is to cash in on your student status. Students are a privileged class in Europe, and the way to insure terrific deals on train and plane fares, restaurant and hotel bills and theater and museum admissions is to lay down $2.50 for an International Student ID Card. To get an application for your card, write to the Council on International Educational Exchange (C1EE), Student Travel Services, 777 United Nations Plaza, New York, 10017 and ask for their free booklet. The 1976 Student Travel Catalog. Eurailpass Icelandic. Although the standard APEX summer fare from New York to London costs $402. Icelandic charges only $381. Travel Group Charters: A better bargain than APEX flights can be found in Travel Group Charters (TGC). Under this system, organizers of TGC flights sell seats to the public at large, provided the, purchaser buys his ticket, 65 days before departure and is prepared to leave Europe on a specified <fate. Cancellation clauses for charter flights are complex. Y6ur best bet is to purchase some charter flight insurance through your local travel agency. Your policy will protect you from losing your ticket money if either you or the charter organizer bows out of the deal. TGC prices vary slightly from organizer to organizer, and may also go up to 20 percent higher than the minimum price quoted, depending on how many seats the organizer manages to sell for your flight. Minimum TGC summer fares for New York to London, for flights ranging from a couple weeks to 10 months, hover around $333. Information on TGC’s can be found at any travel agency (travel agencies, by the don’t charge for their way, services). Two national travel agencies which cater specifically to students and fiost numerous TGC flights are the Student Travel Services, operated by the Co ncil on International Educational Exchange, 77 U.N. Plaza, New York, New York 10017 and the National Student Travel Bureau, 21 IS S. Street, N.W., Washington D.C. 20008. Affinity Charters: By far, the best way to get to Europe is on an affinity charter flight arranged through your university. Under —continued on page 22— For years, the touted way to travel cheaply has been via a Student Eurailpass. The Student Eurailpass entitles you to two months of unlimited second-class train travel in Western Europe (excluding Britain) for $180. To get one. you need an International Student ID and must be under 25. Eurailpass is a good bet if you plan to hit a lot of countries in a short time, but there are other waysto save train fare. If you’re under 21, an economical way to travel is by signing up for the Rail-Europ Junior, available in Europe. This is not a Eurailpass, but a $ I card which gives you 25 percent now costs a whopping $ 140. Accommodations is the next big step in your travel plans. dormitory-like Youth hostels hotels for student hitchhikers are littered over Europe and cost between $.50 and $1.50 a night. You need a youth hostel card, costing $11, and a sleeping bag or sheet. - - _ If you want to rough it, you can plan a trip camping. Camp sites are near almost all European cities and cost between $.25 and $1.50 per night. Sometimes a 50 percent reduction is given for ID’s. For a good student European camping guide, write to American Youth Hostels and ask for their Europa Camping and Caravaning.

EE for the International Youth Hostel info, application Handbook Volume the Mediterranean. I: Europe and Unfortunately, hostels often sport 11 p.m. cUrfews and zero chance for coed sleeping. A better bargain can often be found in independently run youth hotels or pensions (guest houses) which are often just as cheap and usually don't have restrictions. If you want to make advance reservations, after sifting through a travel guide for addresses, send off an International Reply Coupon, available from any U.S. Post Office. This pre-pays the innkeeper's return postage and usually guarantees an answer. If you prefer the more fancy-free method of arriving in town without a room on reserve, most train stations have lists of pensions and student hostels in the area. Although hotels are crowded in the summer, you’ll save bucks, if not time, if you hunt down your own room rather than having reservations made for you. Always ask to see the room before you take it, and always take a room without a bath. Walking down the hallway to the bathroom can expenses by a third. chop room If even camping proves too expensive, you can always try at a your luck crashing sympathetic student’s dorm room at an European university. (Universities also offer cheap but edible meals.) Another way to beat hotel prices r is to join the Globetrotters Gub, which is billed as a club for the “non-tourist, travelling on a mini-budget.” GT will send you their bi-monthly newsletter, full travel tips, and more of important, a list of the names and addresses of all their other GT members. Although GT’ers aren’t obliged to do so, many will put you up for the night. A year's membership costs $5; write to GT, BCM/ Roving, London WCIV 6XX, England for an application. Two good travel guides for students are: Let’s Go: The Budget Guide to Europe, E.P. Dutton and Co., Inc. and Europe on $10 a Day by Arthur Frommer, Simon and Schuster. If you want to work or study overseas through an American university, latch onto a copy of the Whole World ■Handbook available for $3.45 from CIEE. If , you want to study in Europe very cheaply (tuition in Europe can cost as little as $30 a year) and don’t care about transferring credits back home, send a stamped, self-addressed envelope for a copy of “Europe on Zero Credits a Day,” from CON-PRO, P.O.

To figure out Rail-Europ Jr. fares, call your nearest travel agent and ask for second class fares to the cities you want to visit. Another optiQirto Eurailpass if you’re over 21 is to travel on student trains. You must lie a full-time, student, but generally' there are no age restrictions. Student trains run at weird times, but can save you a bundle. For a listing of student train fares and schedules, write to the National Union of Student Travel, 117 Euston Road, London NW1, 2SX. Comparative shopping To decide which is the best deal tor you, figure out your travel itinerary and compare the Eurailpass price to the fares of Rail Europe Junior and student trains. As a guidelines, a one-way train ticket from London to Paris, first class costs $5S; a second-class train ticket (everyone travels second dass in Europe except for American tourists) costs $37; a student train ticket costs $28, and a second-class fare with a Rail-Europ Junior card costs $27.

United we stand by David Slive Students across the state have finally begun to take decisive action against proposed cuts in the St;ate and City The main question confronting our nation is the following: Should the individual liberty of big business continue to govern the people or shall the liberties of the people govern the individual liberty of big business? As Abraham Lincoln once so eloquently said, a house divided against itself cannot stand; it must all become one thing or all the other. But according to the conservatism of Irving Kristol, the liberties of the common man are to be irrevocably subjugated to the entrepeneurial liberties of the favored few. That is truly a flimsy, crumbling house. HovfeveV this is difficult to detect for the following feason: the term, individual liberty, appears to denote the liberty of the common man to pursue the good life; whereas its veritable signification is not the liberty of the common man to be free from fear and want, but rather the liberty of the entrepeneur to frequent the market as a means of randomly deriving ever greater amounts of private profit. Whereas the former is a positive conception of liberty, the latter is negative that is, one denoting an absence or minimal amount of governmental restraint. The Square Deal of Theodore Roosevelt, the New Freedom of Woodrow Wilson, the New Deal of Franklin Roosevelt all employed the power of the national government as a means of subjecting the entrepeneurial liberties of big business to, the yoke of the legitimate rights and interests of the common man. As such, each exerted a democratic control over the state apparatus as a means of advancing the freedom of average individuals, be they members of the work force or independent small entrepeneurs. That is not to say however, that the extension of the national governing authority over business has always been unblemished or thoroughly infallible; for that has hardly been the case at all. On the other hand, present and past forms of authentic'ineptitude do not constitute a valid criterion for rejecting this eminently democratic concept and practice namely, government regulation of big business in the interest of the University (SUNY AND CUNY) budgets that, if passed, would ' massive signal retrenchment, in public higher education. Even more significant is that they have the support of diversified groups within SUNY and CUNY, such as the United University Professionals and the Civil Service Employees Association, who are well aware of the crisis situation that now threatens every area of the two systems, The importance of Tuesday's large student gathering at the Legislative Buildings Office Albany in and the occupation of central administration buildings Wednesday at two state campuses is that actions like these call public attention to the seriousness of attacks on education. Parents - with children who may attend a state or city college within the next ten years, and who may not otherwise realize that by then, perhaps they won't be able to afford it or the - quality of the programs won't be worth affording, might decide to join in the appeal to restore slashed tax dollars to education. Additionally, legislators who themselves oppose the cuts have a stronger case to defend if their constituents physically prove that they feel strongly about the issue. The people of this University must realize that the cuts recommended for the budget constitute a major crisis involving every individual, department and service on this and every SUNY campus. There is little time to save the quality of education in this state from suffering a crippling — setback. Students, faculty and employees from several state common man. For past deficiencies can only be surmounted by a renewed and reinvigorated form of federal regulation of big business activity. And in matters such as this, the following must by all means be noted; The equal opportunity of being subjected to big business' freedom of contract and enterprise does not constitute the equality of human rights, nor their supremacy when experiencing conflicts with rights of property, which Thomas Jefferson bequeathed, and Abraham Lincoln reaffirmed, as the immortal posterity of -their peddle. The Constitution is a malleable instrument of government; it does not, to employ the phrase of former Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, ordain Mr. Herbert Spencer’s Social Statics into the impenetrable realm of an eternal verity. In addition, its due process of law provision’ cRfes not stipulate fKer Economic form of private property which must by right irrevocably govern the nation. For that is a the nation. For that is a matter of the philosophy interpreting the preeminent ideal of America itself: life, liberty and the prusuit of happiness. Moreover, such a form of conservatism does not really serve as a staunch bulwark either of social welfare of small business activity, Pretending to accept the extension ofthe welfare state as an abstraction, it just happens to merely denounce its practical and palpable embodiment the liberal achievements of the Great Society itself. the independent Playing upon entrepeneur’s legitimate distaste for ineffective manifestations of big government regulation, this conservatism’s individual liberty of unregulated corporate price-inflation sires' an even more distasteful result: diminution of the average citizen’s purchasing power, and hence the magnitude of the retail market itself. Hence equating • the liberties of the small entrepeneur with the Main Street Republicanism of a bygone Taft, Harding or Coolidge era is no longer either in the interest of Main Street or the interdependent economy of the nation or world itself. To conclude; Although such a form of conservatism may very well conserve the wealth and power of Theodore Roosevelt’s malefactors of great wealth, it certainly does not tend to conserve or protect the rights and interests of the the sustaining indefatigable common man of depositories triumphant American democracy. — — colleges have taken the step from rhetoric to action.

With a body as sleek as a race horse that extends nearly six feet high, the 32-year-old lead dancer of the renowned Alvin Ailey Dance Company slices the air with her long sinewy arms and legs in the most graceful Whether possible for everyone to do anything." She also says that if a person really wants to perform, "it is very difficult to stay in a protective situation like a University up until the age pf 22." Doit "Dancers are breaking into the dance scene earlier and earlier," she commented. Her advice to any terpsichorean hopefuls is simply to go out and dance. Jamison started her own career in her native Philadelphia at the tender age of six. Since then, she has spent afmost every year of her life taking dance lessons, studying with such greats as Marian Cuyjet, Anthony Tudor, Madame Swoboda and Vincenzo Celli. However, when she thinks back to her early years, she can't remember exactly when she decided td, devote her career to dancing. "Did you know what you wanted to be when you were six years old?" she asked. 1 ■■ It was Agnes de Mille, one of the best choreographers in America (and niece of Cecil B.) who convinced Judy to come to New York in November 1974 and make her professional debut in Ms. de Mille's The Four Marys. 'That's the only way to start dancing in New York at the very top," Jamison said in a December 1975 interview — way imaginable. Judy, as she prefers to be called, made with her debut as teacher/performer on this campus last Monday evening in Clark Hall Encore American and Worldwide News. before a class of 40 dazzled dancers and an audience of 25 even more spellbound spectators. Her appearance, sponsored by the UUAB Dance and Drama Committee, was the first in Buffalo since she starred with the Ailey troupe at Kleinhans Music Hall two years ago. Extraordinary She joined the Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater (now called the Alvin Ailey City Center Dance Theater) in 1965 and has been with the company ever since. Other top Ailey dancers include James Truitt and Dudley Williams. Commenting on Jamison's talents in the Encore American and Worldwide News article, choreographer Alvin Ailey said; "I respect and admire her for her compassion and her beauty as a dancer. She has musicality, discipline and taste marvelous taste. Above all, Judith is able to justify movement .. . She is, of course, an extraordinarily gifted dancer, but another extraordinary thing about her is her capacity for growth. She is always learning. I love her, we all love her." Indeed, Judith Jamison has been blessed with an exceptional ability to transform movement into sheer magic. Asked how she feels when is alone out there, dancing, she said the feeling is like that of any person who is creating a gradual building up to a climax and then "WOWI" When Judith Jamison steps onto the floor, she looks like she's having the time of her life. both she and She's doubly lucky then her audiences love everything she does. Horton technique Jamison's main objective in conducting the two master classes was to teach various movements using the "Horton” technique, a method that builds off the fundamental pile and relies heavily on lateral and flat back positions. "You need a back made out of iron" to do these exercises, she said. If the Horton technique requires supreme muscle and breath control and a body as elastic as rubber, Judith Jamison makes every movement look as easy as walking from point A to point B. For the dancers in the class, the abrupt contracting and flexing motions seemed to strain every muscle in their bodies. For Jamison, they came off smooth and fluid, light and airy, like the motion of a single leaf floating through space: Jamison believes that all people have it inside them to dance but do not all tap their potential.

American critics hail Truffaut's worst him * • * * riMp It was inevitable that Francois Truffaut would eventually make an utterly pointless, horribly frustrating movie, and equally inevitable that most American critics would fall in love with that film the minute it came out. Thus,, we now have The Story of Ade!e,H, a cinematic treatment of the journals of Victor Hugo's mad daughter, Adete. The film opens in 1863 as Adele arrives in Halifax, Nova Scotia, at the age of 19 or so, searching for her true love, a British lieutenant named Pinson. In great detail, the film follows Adele's incredible obsession with the i<Jea of marrying the unvyilling playboy. She writes him endless letters, hounds him continually, breaks up his engagement to a Halifax socialite, and oven sends out announcements of her own imaginary engagement and wedding to Pinson. She scorns normal friendships with a number of people in Halifax, including a lonely bachelor who runs the local bookstore (and sells her sta gger jng amoun t S of writing paper). Not-so-magnificent obsession For Pinson'is her obsession, an obsession which apparently started several years earlier in Europe. Although Pinson is-an utterly amoral individual, one is tempted to pity him for being harassed by this extremely persistent mad woman. Adele even follows Pinson to Barbados when his unit is transferred, despite the fact that he has married in the meantime. (Her pursuit is funded by her unwitting father, who keeps sending her money in the vain hope she will return to France.) In Barbados she goes totally mad, roaming the streets talking to herself, seemingly seeking a non-identity. A native woman takes pity on her and finally arranges to accompany her back to France. An epilogue tells us that Adele was put in a private clinic in France, that she played piano there, and that her death passed relatively unnoticed in 1915. The film achieved the notable effect of getting the Buffalo Evening News and the New York Times to agree on one thing that this was Truffaut's best yet, that it is a staggeringly good view of a woman gone K mad. - -- Off the boat As happens quite often, the newspaper critics have managed to entirely miss the boat. The film might be Truffaut's worst to date ("might be" because this reviewer hasn't seen all of them). Truffaut gives an entirely alienated view of Adele. Is she crazy because of Pinson, because she is Victor Hugo's daughter, because she is a European woman living in the nineteenth century, because her sister had drowned several years before, or perhaps because of some childhood trauma? Truffaut never even tries to tell us. We are never given any background for Adele's present condition, —continued on page 12— "i QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

By the dose of Martin Scorsese's brilliant and unsettling new film, Travis is still hurtling through the unsteady streams of city traffic, shuttling back and forth between the rich and the unbearably raunchy: but he is no longer just a violently idealistic nonentity. A cold-blooded, half-conscious killer of ,f v tx/ J i 1? uhii I JtH pllb /ill Qb thieves at\d pimps, he has become an odd kind of folk hero the urban cowboy, the self-appointed vigilante who, in mowing down street criminals, becomes one himself. His "heroism" is of the most — — j , — ambiguous sort, but he is praised by newspapers and frightened citizens just the same. Travis spies on and pursues Betsy, the intelligent young aide to a presidential candidate (the uncrossable space separating their worlds is invisible only to him) because she is, quite simply, the most beautiful woman he has even seen an earthly angel with whom he sense some crazy affinity, a being whom he knows is different from the "scum" spilling out of every other corner of the city. She cots him off less than ten minutes into their second date, leaving him to conclude, of course, that she is just as rotten as all the because, paradoxically, his rest translation of "an evening at the movies" into "two hours of skin slick" insults her right out of the friendship. — off-handed authority he brings to all his roles. DeNiro is something of a "walking contradiction" himself; his three most important characterizations to date (leads in The Godfather, Part II and Scorsese's Quick change artist But Travis is full of such paradoxes and misinterpretations; they, more than anything else, define his character. Before depths which she definitely does not possess.

Taxi Driver is an altogether stunning film. It's playing right now at the HOliday and Boulevard Mall Theatres. See it. 'All Screwed Up' Everything has its place, nothing is in order by Mike McGuire Campus Editor "Everything Has Its Placi, and Nothing is in Order" was the original translation of AH Screwed Up's Italian title, and it was a perfect summing-up of this excellent first film by Lena Wertmuller, just released in the U.S. The film concerns a group of young Italians who arrive in the industrial city of Milan from the country, and who meet by chance. They end up living together in a tenement stuck anachronistically in the middle of the city's financial district. Over the course of about two years, the group of once-idealistic young people adapts itself to the rat-race the society offers as life. Some become crass, some go crazy, and some are crushed by what must be confronted when there is too little pie and too many people wanting a piece. There is Adelina, who is a shy, tradition-briented country girl when we first see her leaving the Milan train station. As the story progresses, her hair gets continually shorter and more stylist as she gradually becomes a shiny, plastic Big Town Girl. By the end, her hair is short and dyed red, and she can only be the old Adelina with great ij. t ' ? effort. rV \si ’ * : c - High productivity Then there is Sante, a sad-eyed man who marries the Prodigal Sun girl of his dreams, and finds himself the father of seven children in two years. To support them, he must change jobs constantly in search of higher pay, at times work two jobs, work in hazardous occupations, and, in his spare time, try to hush his babies so that their crying won't upset his neighbors. Sante finally is drive to do no-questions-asked work for a local Fascist, and ends up (rather poetically) by being caught holding the bomb. He is hustled off to jail; and one is left to wonder what becomes of his wife and children. any of them. The film ends with him working irv a kitchen, with little hope left. The people live rent-free in their tenement despite persistent attempts by the city to evict them and put up luxury apartments. A woman named Biki has set up the financial arrangements that keep the tenement running: In addition to his or her share of expenses, each person has to pay extra for such amenities as using the laundry room, having overnight guests, watching television, drinking coffee a parody of treating life as a commodity to be — Insecurity Sante remarks at one point that raising a large family was never a hopeless undertaking in the farm village he grew up in. While some of the kids might have to rob local merchants for fruit or fishermen for fish, and while they might have to dress in rags, there was never any question of their starving. A friend and neighbor, Charlotte, asks him why he doesn't go back there. Sante replies that the trip would be hard on the young children and his wife and that it would cost too much, and then sadly adds that the country has probably changed too/since he left it. Carlette is in love with Adelina, but can never quite get his material situation secure enough for her to marry him. He goes through several jobs, but finds that he cannot do much more than barely keep his head above water in bought and sold. The film comes off as a tragi-comedy; the tone is light even while the underlying reality is quite grim. Wertmuller assaults the senses with a musical score, richly constructed scenes and fast cutting. At one point, we see workers doing their job, seemingly slaughterhouse choreographed to the score. (The scene is vaguely reminiscent of a film by our own Hollis Frampton.) Wertmuller's style is somewhat disjointed; the film is more a collection of interrelated sequences than it is a narrative. This is a fascinating and enjoyable film, yet one that will horrify you once its implications sink in. It deserves to be seen.

And they all understand, far more profoundly than anyone else did. the essence of Thurber as an artist, as well as where he went wrong as a person. Between the lines you can hear plaintive moans, "Would that he had managed his life as well as we could have managed it for him..." The reason I have my spleen unhplstered is npt to aim a blind sweep at the whole institution of literary criticism. What does upset me is the tidal wash of vain, selfsuff icient second guessing that inevitably comes out in this Mpfl of,circumstance; It's also appropriate in that the New Yorker, at its that worst is a prime bastion of this sly elitism same New Yorker that Harold Ross, with the non pared help of Thurber. Robert Benchley and E B White among others, built into an institution of - ; - clear-sighted, insightful journalism. I can't cop to that perspective of enlightened fakery. I was seven when Thurber died in 1961. It was another seven years before l_read my first Thurber: Further Fables For Our Time. From there I went down the course: Walter Mitty, "The Catbird Seat,'4 My World and Welcome To it (both the book and the brief, brilliant JV series derived from Thurber's work). Is Sex Necessary? the hilarious Freudian satire he wrote with White. What I discovered was a world whete minor, mundane tragedies capture our laughter because they show that we are hardly excepted from them: We all make the same dumb little mistakes, and are all jumped on for the same trivial deviations from the norm. Everyone Is Out To Get not Me, but All Of Us, and Thurber is the one famiHar face we see in this foreign country. Which is all I have to say about Thurber's work: It speaks quite eloquently for itself, ‘ and I direct you there. That professional laugh-makers are often among least happy of people is old news, at least since the the emergence of the biographical trend toward a frivolous image through gung-ho reportage of trials and tribulations in Jhe life of a funnyperson. (Pause for breath.) Burton Bernsteig, though, has all the other trag* revelators beat by light-years: No other humorist, not even Twa.n, has ever had his life mapped out in such a dour tone, Certainly there was no shortage of cruel happenstance in Thurber's life. At seven Thurber lost 3,1 «Ve in 30 accident; his other eye grew progressively worse, leaving him totally blind by 1946. Sexual inadequacy, alcohol and general bitterness toward life were offset, in his peak years of the 20's and 30's, by success, a clownish spirit, masttrY of 3 "guage that was 3 irresistably intoxicating. By the time hi* blindness was totaf, Thurber was a cartoonist who could not see, a comic writer to whom 4ife was anything but funny, and a legend who was confronted, ever after, by a‘mushrooming reputationand declining powers. Mostly, Bernstein leaved, the task of telling Thurber's story to those best suited for. it: Thurber's wife Helen, a brave and long-suffering companion during Thurber's hardest years; White, a masterful writer himself, whose appreciations of Thurber are perhaps the most trenchant of all; and Thurber himself, through may pages of letters and conversations. (The excerpts presented from Thurber's fiction and cartoon work, though, .are unforgiveably frugal.) v, The story they tell is a distraught and upsetting one, but still much brighter than Bernstein's view of the evgpts and attitudes that surround them. Thurber emerges as a mass of contradictions, by turn* inspired, plodding, devoted, vain, nihilistic and full °1 i°'e de vivre. In that light, it s appropriate that Thurber’s meticulous, exhaustive portrait contrasts an illuminating genius with one of the murkiest realities any artist's life has ever yielded.

In The People's Almanac, Wallenchinsky and Wallace have tried to collect that information which one always needs but which almanacs in the past have not provided. Their aim is not only to present history in her regal trappings but to lift up her skirt and let us glimpse her frightening yet hilarious nether parts. They have tried to make readily accessible not only the everyday stuff a student needs to spice up a dull term paper but also necessary information, from self-examinations for women to the history and nutritional value of common food-stuffs, from emergency child-birth to publishing your own book.

J Texas Instruments INCORPORATED TEXAS INSTRUMENTS available at im UNIVERSITY BOOKSTORE ON CAMPUS - Norton Union - I Page sixteen The Spectrum Friday, 19 March 1976 . . ' - Prodigal Sun �7 I J - I JL JL W James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay were talking over the Florida primary last week. They had met in an alcove of the Founders Club. They were a notable trio in queues and ruffles. They were the three who wrote The Federalist in 1787, which was a promotion job for the newly devised United States Constitution, adopted a year later. They helped start it all but they didn’t expect it to turn out this way. They never anticipated a presidential election lasting a year, with a dozen state caucuses and 30 primaries, with rival parties, two convention spectaculars, and a sporting event falling between the baseball and football seasons, costing $400 million. No, they thought of it as a quiet affair performed by genteel delegates picked by respective states, who would meet decorously in the nation’s capital to count ballots and elect a worthy successor of George Washington. “The people who own the country ought to govern it,” John Jay wrote once. And in The Federalist papers he warned against “the activity or party zeal taking advantage of the supineness, the ignorance, and the hopes and fears of the unwary and interested (which) often place men in office by the votes of a small proportion of the Democracy and pluralism To the Editor. After a thorough reading of John Elias’ letter of February 20,1 would like to point out: 1) Mr. Elias is either ignorant of the truth or is guilty of misrepresenting the situation with half truths. Since I have faith in human integrity, I must conclude that Mr. Elias is ignorant. 2) The Buffalo'Evening News of January 14, carried a banner headline to the effect that Moslem religious leaders had declared Jihaad (holy war) in Lebanon. If the conflict were one of class as Mr. , Elias says, there would have been no motivation for these religious leaders to go to the extent of declaring Holy War (i.e. religious). 3) There is presently sitting in an Israeli jail, an Archbishop of the Eastern Orthodox Church, as Mr. Elias states. The part Mr. Elias failed to mention was that this Archbishop, Hilarion Capucci, a known' P.L.O. sympathizer, was convicted of smuggling guns and other weapons illegally. 4) Mr. Elias voices protest over what he calls as Israelis bombing Mosques. This statement is so filled with distortion that there is nothing truthful about it. Several years ago, a deranged Australian tourist, who, by the way, was neither Jewish nor Zionist, was convicted of bombing the Silver Mosque (Al Aksa). It might also be noted that, within a short time of the bombing, the Mosque was repaired at the expense of the Israeli Government. 5) If the conflict in Lebanon is not one of religious or National groups, why is it that; a) the Lebanese parliament is divided according to religious affiliation, which seems to be at the — heart of,the conflict; b) the parties to the conflict are constantly described as being Christian vs. Moslem; 9) since the beginning of the Civil war, there has been a de-facto partitioning of the Christian and Moslem communities which has resulted because of , population exchange; 6) Finally, Mr. Elias proposes a solution to the Mid-East problem a democratic, pluralistic society in Palestine/Israel. My response is: a) Israel is a democracy with np one official — wnai uo you iiiiiik. an. hi me one mey c<m Jimmy Carter. Mr. Twice-born the Wallace slayer?" ventured Jay. “I think 1 should like to have him on my side,” Hamilton answered cryptically. “But it is the process that fascinates me, friends, not the players. Picking a president is the central problem of our system of divided government, the only such system now in the world. We were gullible. perhaps, when we thought we had solved it in our cozy Electoral College. 1 wrote in Federalist No. 68 that the mode of appointment of the Grief Magistrate was almost the only part of the system ‘which has escaped without severe censure.’ I boasted that our method would make a choice without ‘tumult and disorder,’ without ‘cabal. intrigue, and corruption,’ and that it affords ‘moral certainty that' the office of the President will seldom fall to the lot of any man who is not in an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualification'.” “Not like you-know-who?” murmured Jay. “1 think that, with all its faults, Sir, our system would have strained out Nixon,” said Hamilton grimly. “We blocked Aaron Burr, you There was awkward silence for a minute at the mention of Burr.-Then Jay continued, “Something odd is happening to America, I think; something the public hardly realizes. It’s the politics of unity. The ‘factions’ turned into parties and became a binding force, but now they are falling apart. For 14 of the past two dozen years one party has controlled Congress, the other the Executive Mansion. For the first time since Polk in 1844, Gen. electors.” John Jay turned to James Madison. “What Eisenhower in 1956 failed'to elect a Congress of do you make of the Florida primary.

Student wins due process case Advocates of full constitutional rights (CPS) for students were elated over a recent legal victory at the University of Minnesota. A federal district judge has ruled that veterinary student Robert Waag’s right to due process was violated when he was suspended for allegedly cheating on a test. Waag was found guilty of cheating on an exam last spring by a judiciary board made up of profs from the veterinary school, and was suspended for a year as punishment. Yet Waag maintained that his Fourteenth Amendment rights were violated when his accuser, a veterinary science professor, was allowed to speak at the hearing, and he was not. According to one of the faculty judges, Waag’s accuser gave a “forceful and very well reasoned presentation” of why Waag was guilty of cheating. In fact, it was so effective that despite a subcommittee’s unanimous recommendation to dismiss the charges against Waag because of insufficient evidence, the faculty voted to oust him from school. When Waag filed suit against the University, the courts saw it his way, and consequently Waag will face a new hearing later this year. No word yet whether the J-Board will be manned by students this time around. Waag’s lawsuit was one of several due process case* that have cropped up this year. The Supreme Court, in Goss vs. Lopez, recently ruled that before students are suspended or expelled, school administrators must give them a chance to “informally discuss” the alleged misconduct, stating the reason for punishment and offering them a chance to explain their side of the story. So far, however, the court has avoided making a clear cut statement on the formal nature of school judiciary hearings. The right to have counsel and cross examine witnesses and be tried by one’s peers are still Fourteenth Amendment freedoms that are unrecognized on campus. - BILLY COBHRm GEORGE DUKE with special guest David Sancious mONDflY.mflRCH 22 8=00 Harry A.

There are no nuclear facilities on any other campus in the State University. (Stony Brook works in conjunction with the Brookhaven Laboratory on Long Island.) The Nuclear Facility is the cylindrical building located next to Acheson Hall and bordering Peele Field. One important division of the center here is the Radiation Protection Department. While watching ifter the health and safety of the workers at the center, it also provides licenses for the use of radioisotopes and radiation producing equipment at this University. Faculties involved with these materials include the chemistry, physics, engineering, biology and health sciences departments, or a major percentage of academic activity here. There are approximately 94 radiation producing machines on campus, such as x-ray machines and electron microscopes. The campus holds 108 laboratories that use isotopes and about 300 pe'ople including faculty and graduate studeqts alone who , use the labs. A radioisotope is a type of atom that can be tracked through a biological system in something called - a tracer experiment. “Our knowledge of biological processes wouldn’t be whfere it is now, if it weren’t for the existence of radioisotopes,’-’ said Charles Thomas, Direcotr of Nuclear Science and Technology facilities/ “There is not one isotope on this campus that we don’t know about, which means a lot of record keeping.” All records are subject to inspection by state and county health facilities and by the federal government. Nuclear waste, such as chemically contaminated wipes or any liquid or solid materials, is disposed of by the Radiation Department in old pickle barrels. The center is equipped to handle large amounts of waste, although temporary storage of barrels has become a small problem. * Undergraduate German Club /wenRK It's all here at C.W.

Post a total summer experience. . . Feature Editor . . .. Teaching and study projects The Nuclear Department is separate from the Radiation Department and concerns itself mainly with teaching and individual study projects. Courses such as radiation science and protection and tracer techniques are offered in the biology department. A number of courses on Aerospace and Nuclear Engineering are offered in engineering departments and one course on geo-cronology for archeology, involving dating techniques, is offered in the Anthropology department. Thomas is beginning a program for high school students concentrating in the sciences, but would like to set up a full time nuclear program like ones currently offered in Pennsylvania. and graduate students conduct Faculty individual research projects for departmental or commercial use. An archeology graduate student is tracing elements in Iroquois Indian pottery to determine former trade routes in North America. Work was begun last year using isotopes to study glacial ice composition, and the geology department is beginning to analyze uranium and potassium, both naturally radioactive. Members of the biology department are studying the changes in calcium content in mice as a function of old age. They are working with live animals and keeping them alive, and Thomas noted that women in menopause also suffer from this de-calcification process. Work is also being done with radioisotopes in tracing the content of human brain tissue. Thomas says it may be “possibly very important in future studies of the brain.” No classified work “No classified work is done here at all,” said Thomas. “I don’t want any work done hero that can’t be published.” Thomas has done classified work for the federal government, but discontinued his work for them in 1949. “Most classified material in nuclear research involves weapons and defense,” he said. More than 50 percent of the Nuclear Center’s budget is maintained by private companies. The remainder comes from rio-interest loans by the University. The laboratories of the Office of Naval Research have for years conducted research on radioactive effects on certain materials. They use the labs here for research on the safety of reactors for commerical use. Thomas radiates samples for them and ships them back. “Thay say that we send them the best temperature controlled radiated samples that they’ve had in 15 years,” he said, “so I’m anticipating a bigger contract with them.” The Center produces short-lived radioisotopes for commerical companies that make biological compounds and pharmaceutical supplies. However, no energy or power, such as that used in making weapons, is produced in the reactor. “Part of the problem with nuclear energy is that it was introduced to the public as a bomb that destroyed two cities,” Thomas said. “It’s as if electricity had been introduced with the electric chair. I think nuclear reactor work is pretty safe. There have always been strong regulations in nuclear power plants, but often there are problems with different interpretations of the regulations,” he continued: The Center'conducts tours of ten to twenty people at a time.'Any interested students may call 831-2826, anl when enough people have called, a tour will be arranged.

Lee Clju*s Resfauftig Sports Editor We offer you the finest Chinese Food The passage of the athletic budget by Student Association (SA) just before spring recess is certainly a landmark event. It marks the first time in recent memory that budgetary increases have been granted to varsity team and than an athletic budget has been passed with a minimal amount of hoopla. But the most noteworthy thing about the 1976-77 athletic budget is its omissions. Track, cross country and fencing have been eliminated from the varsity sports program at this school. SA has decided that it can’t afford to spend the money required to pay for the coaches needed by these sports. The gut reaction to such cuts isone of excessive animosity toward a student government which has cut off three of Buffalo’s less popular sports to save eight others. The cuts mean that approximately SO athletes, will not be able to compete on a varsity level in the same manner they have in previous years simply because SA -will not pick up the tab for their coaches. t > The resignation of former track coach Jim McDonough last fall set the stage for the cuts of track and cross country. The hiring freeze makes It impossible for the Athletic Department to hire a suitable replacement for McDonough. As a result, track, cross country and fencing are now the only men's varsity sports not coached by full time faculty. Full time faculty coaches are paid by the state, part titne coaches are not. The cost to SA for sponsoring coaches for these sports on its own would have been approximately S40.0Q0 (including funds needed for equipment, travel, etc. to maintain the three sports), or one-sixth of the entire athletic budget.

There is no way out. Club status, which was funded for the three sports, will not be a viable solution to the problem. Fencing requires excellent coaching to maintain competitiveness, and track and cross country will be lost without the funds to which they are accustomed on the varsity level. This means that all three sports will be gone from the campus scene as of September. Again, it is the athletes involved with these sports who are really losing out. You’ve got to feel bad for a guy like Eldred Stephens. Perhaps the best pure athlete at this University, Eldred will now have to virtually take it • upon himself to make arrangements to compete. As for coaching, who knows what difficulty he may have. Stephens, and athletes like him have only one real alternative and that is to transfer. Since their sports are being dropped at Buffalo, they will not lose a year of eligibility. Nevertheless, the elimination of their sports will cause these students undue hardship whether they transfer or not. There is really nobody to blame for the cuts. The money really just isn’t there. Students don’t have it, the state doesn’t have it, nobody has it. You can’t argue with a zero bank balance. But it sure is a shame. The magic number is now at five. This decade has now seen the elimination of five varsity-sports: fencing, track, cross country, crew and football. Will it ever end? by David J.

Reiss Staff Writer contract with the New York Mets answered “No, no, no, no, no, no, no,” to the suggestion that the Spectrum It’s T-minus three weeks and counting to the scheduled opening of tfie 1976 baseball season, but owners might alter their offer. American League president Lee MacPhail claimed that the owners would change “Not a colon, not a as of Wednesday, contract talks between owners and players are at a standstill. The owners submitted to the Players’ Association their “best and final offer” and Marvin Miller, chief negotiator for the players has recommended that the players reject the offer. So both sides remain standing with anqs folded as the spring training semi-colon.” The problem centers around the reserve clause that binds a player to his team forever. Under this rule, a team is able to annually renew a players contract, and hold him to the team until he is traded or released. camps'stay p biuMbtir l>m .<>3 an!. f/4 Irjnjl h'a*:vsurvived ru1e ‘hroughbrif Miller admitted that the new the s P ort s history’ but was proposal has led to some progress abolished when arbiter between the two sides.

If he does not come to terms with the Mets for 1976, or simply decides not to Sign, under the new law he would become a free agent for the 1977 season. It has been the owners’ contention that this “one and one 1 rule would create an uncontrollable market of free agents.- Since there would be nothing to bind a player to a team, he could simply play out his option and: sign with another team. • The owners maintain that each major • leaguer represents a $500,000 investment, and they feel they should be given some assurance that their players won’t simply leave the teams for greener ’ pastures. ...... 24 14 47 48 58 6 18 68 80 51 19 36 9 32 Busch 9 25 24 Patterson 7 Costello 23 14 Haywood 9 5 23 1 22 Reisweber 4 16 20 4 Grow 3 15 18 Sutton 3 13 16 14 Mike Caruana 0 36 14 14 Mark Caruana 9 10 1 41 Bonn 6 2 4 2 Shoemann 4 3 10. 1 2 Davidson 3 23 1 Jeneault 0 2 2 4 Ross 0 0 0 15 8 Goalies Moore and Swift and bench penalties Goaltending: Moore (10—10—1) Goals against shutout.

But with the emergence of contract hassles like the one going on ,. , It is the fear of the owners that richer clubs in more attractive cities would soon corner the free agent market. Wealthy teams such as the Yankees, Mets and Dodgers would have decided advantages over other clubs in signing free agents. Owners cite the Yankees' ' right now, grapefruit league act|&i|Y*fia* become an annual question mark in recent years.

Page twenty-one . �Inexpensive Europe... —continued from page 5— this deal, an organization “rents” a plane and crew from one of the major airlines and then splits the cost of the rental among the members of the organization making the trip. Disadvantages in the affinity charter racket are the same as those of the Travel Group early bookings, Charters limited, specified departure dates and the possibility of cancellation hassles. Yet these drawbacks are certainly o\itweighe<f' by the tag: affinity charter price round-trip flights to Europe can ‘cost as little as $20(0. If your school doesn’t offer affinity charter flights, shop around. Most schools will allow you to sign up with their charter flight even if you aren’t a student there. A rarity is a one-way school affipity flight, a gold mine if you plan to stay abroad indefinitely. Start looking for school affinity charter flights immediately; these are gobbled up fast. - Shady Deals: If you can't find affinity a school that flights, and don’t mind taking risks, look under the “Travel Opportunities” listing in the classified ad section of the New York Times. Legally, the only groups allowed to charter planes, with the exception of TGC organizers, are those which have not been formed specifically for travel. Thus “Let’s Go To Europe Clubs” are illegal. Yet a number of covert “Let’s Go To Europe Clubs” exist. They eagerly advertise for people to join their and, as a “side “organizations” benefit,” gain incredible savings on plane tickets. Many of these organizations aren’t particularly reliable, however, and you risk losing your fare. Even more shady than umbrella affinity groups are pirate companies. These companies buy a block of one-way tickets from the airlines and then illegally sell - BUS TOKENS tor one-way.tickets to Europe low as SI00. You don't prices as face criminal prosecution if caught making use of these companies' generous offers, hut you do risk losing your ticket. Pirate companies also advertise through newspapers. Last Minute Plans; Obviously, the best way to save money on a trip to Europe is to make plans well in advance. But if you aren’t much of a planner, and miss the TGC or charter flight deadlines, just head for a phorfe booth. With a little luck, a seat will turn up s because someone else Cancelled their plans. With zero luck, investigate Icelandic fares. Your best deal may ,be to hop on a one-way Icelandic flight and then buy your return ticket from a student travel bureau in Europe €urope is more civilized than the U.S. about plane fares; you can snap up your passage home for as little as 90 bucks. — Reduced Rates Package of 10 $3.50 with Student I.D.

No. 64 Wednesday, 17 March 1976 VA regulations Veterans may lose benefits by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer Approximately 3000 veterans who attend this University may lose about $1 million a month in benefits if the University cannot comply with enforced Veteran’s Administration (VA) regulations. Ed Serba, chairman of the Western New York Concerned Veterans Coalition, said the VA decided to te-enact a 20 year old law which requires colleges and universities to maintain certain records on students receiving Vets’ benefits. Schools that do not keep such records will lose their “approved” status with the VA, Serba continued, and veterans who attend these schools will not be able to draw benefits. According to Serba, loss of “approved” status Breati by this University would have a “devastating” effect. easier Strict application Last April, a great deal of attention was focused on overpayments totalling several million dollars to ineligible veterans, Serba said. The VA simultaneously faced substantial cutbacks in its funding, making it necessary to reduce spending and to exert greater control over the benefits being disbursed, he explained. enrolled in law schools continued The current problem stems from the VA’s desire not as fast as to to increase, being strictly applying its laws concerning school in recent years.

Law school enrollments, which have more than doubled In the last decade, appear to be leveling off, according to statistics gathered by the American Bar Association (ABA). For the first time since 1968, the size of first-year law classes declined last fall, according to James P. White, Professor of Law at Indiana University and the legal ABA’s consultant on - education. The number of first-year students dropped from 38,074 to 37,892 in die 156 law schools that are accredited by the ABA from fall 1974 to fall 1975. The increase in total enrollment was only 3764 students, or 3.3 percent. Except for a slight drop in 1968, law school enrollments increased steadily over the last ten years, even when enrollments in other fields were leveling off or falling at many universities. Recently, however, sane lawyers have expressed concern that the schools may be producing more lawyers than there are jobs. In addition to the general drop in enrollments, law schools may be experiencing a decline in the quality of the applicants. In 1973-1974, the mean test score for both men and women taking the Law School Admissions Test was 527. In 1974rl975, it was 518 for men and 523 for women. “Many law schools experienced a decrease in the total number of applicants who met the given admission criteria in each law White said. school,” “Additionally, a' number of law schools experienced a greater number of ‘no shows’ in their first choice of admittees.” Even so, only one law school reported any unfilled seats in its 1975 entering class. The number of women - considered “satisfactory progress” by a veteran toward his degree, according to Seiba. Dye added that this would interfere with the right of the University to administer its own academic programs. Anthony Lorenzetti, Assistant Vice-President for Student Affairs, said that any student allowed to continue in this University has met the required standard for progess and such standards should be left up to the discretion of the University. Legal action? This is a national problem and any school with c large number of veterans will feel thi affects of the action, according to Dye. The VA’s laws are geared to small schools with small veteran populations, where they can be more easily administered, he said. The University has been in contact with legal counsel concerning its responsibility in this area, said Lorenzetti. The new VA policies.are not only an intrusion, but the University cinnot possibly keep such records, he explained. The University is cognizant of the position of the student veteran Lorenzetti said; and he hopes the VA will develop workable guidelines. At die March 3 meeting of the U.B. Veterans Association, a proposal for a “show of concern demonstration was passed unanimously. The demonstration is set for March 24,1976. SUNY budget to pass with cuts intact by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Hugh Carey’s executive budget is expected to be approved by the Legislature today with very few changes in the State University’s (SUNY) allocation, according to a reliable source in Albany. The source said that the Legislature will return $200,000 to SUNY Binghamton’s School of Advanced Technology, but that the total revenues expected from SUNY in the Govemor’sproposal remain. An increase of at least $100 in tuition and room rent for undergraduates and $200 for graduate students will be necessary.. These changes, however, will have to be made by the SUNY Board of Trustees.

For the Japanese the task is complicated by having to memorize at least'l 800 characters Kanji. Early in Japan’s history, this exercise was pursued by a "select literati who undertook this task with the true spirit of the ■amateur, spending their lifetime perfecting brush strokes and adding arcane readings to the kanji in order to add to the sophistication of their exercise. When Japan “modernized” this complex reading system . was enthusiastically embraced by heretofore uneducated Japanese. So, £in Japan, where nature and necessity is the mother of invention, any Japanese who wants to keep from falling out of his place (physically and spiritually) must absorb this most difficult reading system if he is to “make it.” * m 0 »- w m m >»—*» » *■ » m m Resumes' and other Information you feel is pertinent, are~to be submitted to the Sub-Board I, Inc.Office. 214 Norton Hall, by WEDNESDAY.

(I don’t consider the University “Bookstore” in Norton a “real” bookstore.) The largest one in Kanazawa is divided into five floors catering to a full range of tastes, from the scientific to the obscene. One whole floor is reserved for grade school children the future of Japan. Eventually they will have to conquer the gruelling university ■entrance examinations, so no expense is spared preparing them. The floor is filled with school supplies, especially diaries (daily, monthly, yearly etc.) for one to record daily progress or failure. Self-learning English cassettes repeat the same message over and over again to all who want to get an edge over their classmates. The latest invention to speed the student along in his/her studies is a space age contained desk with a must digital clocks, electric pencil sharpener, and built in bookcases for every kid. — — Tea breaks Almost every store in Japan that contains more than one floor has its own tea room or rooms. The bookstore is no exception. In Japan a clerk would never think of telling you to move along if you weren’t going to make a purchase. If you don’t have the money you can stand and read the book all day, pausing only'for inexpensive tea breaks. If you do decide to make a purchase, large or small, it will be so skillfully wrapped and tied with ribbon that if you haven’t been used to living in Japan, you will be reluctant to open the package. Americans who can’t read Japanese must be content with the international edition of Time and Newsweek, which quickly proves a great incentive for joining the Japanese and learning Kanji.

However, there is one>point that needs correction; when the Program was established in 1972, it was housed in the Department of Classics for the sake of administrative convenience although it was not made an integral part of the Department. In fact, Classics was assured that it would not suffer budgetarily on account of the Program while Judaic Studies was assured that it would have full autonomy in matters policy, curriculum, and degree The Department contends that this agreement has not been kept and that it has had to support Judaic Studies in part out of its own budget. This is the reason that Classics would like to see Judaic Studies separated and given autonomy. In of academic requirements. fact, the feeling of the Department is that if Judaic Studies is adequately funded, such that Classics does not have to support it out of its own budget, it would be happy to continue housing the Program. Nevertheless, all agree that it would be better if the Program should be given autonomy. By the way, most of' the interest in Judaic; Studies courses comes from non-majors, for while the majors constitute only 4.6 percent of the course enrollments, the non-majors amount to 95.4 percent. The reason for this is that majors must file an oyer-long application with the D.U.E. Special Majors Committee and secure individual approval of that committee. They cannot simply “sign up.” Thus, only the most stalwart complete the Special Majors and whereas others just take courses in the area there are very many who do so! — Michael H.

In the March 1st edition of The Spectrum, Mark HpsteinV article “Japanese have unaquC'-way of adapting to Western ways” had an illustration with tiaiaviriLf,. ' ’ it. As a Japanese, I would like to point out .that the temple and the woman’s dress ifh nfet Japanese style., They took like ancient tpfe. J; However, MacDonald’s is accurate. uom'in 'tint Toyoko Rudmin Thank you for Ridge Rood To the Editor. I am prompted to write this letter by the full page ad that Blue Bird Bus Company placed in Monday’s The Spectrum. The whole bus situation has 1>een a farce from the very start. Blue Bird’s service was never that good to begin with. Schedules were lax, the buses were-crowded, and many of Blue Bird’s drivers were (and still are) rude and nasty. 1 feel that the most important thing to remember was that Blu? Bird walked out on us and left us stranded! My question to the students is where would we have been if Ridge Road Company hadn’t stepped in as quickly and efficiently as they did? How many classes would we have missed if Ridge Road hadn’t been around to handle the problem, or don’t you look at it that way? Are you only concerned with “comfort?” To refresh everyone’s memory, the service provided for our transportation is a BUS service not a Taxi service. The difference is considerable. A bus service must operate with certain rules and time schedules. If you want to be on Main Campus from Amherst in ten minutes non-stop, take a taxi, and see how much you have to pay for the convenience and comfort. Again to refresh your memories, the buses are free, we don’t have to pay for them every time we ride them. Granted, the school buses that Ridge Road used were not the easiest things to get on and off, but I was told by a driver that they had ordered transit buses, but cancelled the order as soon as they were told that they no longer had the job. For the two months Ridge Road drove, I never once had a bad experience with any of their drivers, nor was I late for any classes. 1 take the buses every day and three nights a week. I would rather sacrifice a little comfort, for a lot of courtesy that was given by the drivers of Ridge Road. I never was passed by a Ridge Road driver while running;to catch a bus. Try to get the same treatment from a Blue Bird driver. Most of Blue Bird’s drivers feel that they are doing us a favor by driving, not providing a service that they are paid for. . Instead of thanking the Ridge Road Company and their drivers for helping -us out when we needed it the most, they were harrassed, called names, their buses were tampered with, and they lost a contract that they deserve more than Blue Bird does! I hope all of you are happy with the comfort that Blue Bird supposedly offers, but will the service be any better than Ridge Road provided? After riding the buses on Tuesday 1 can’t see any improvement. In fact I think it is far worse than Ridge Road! At tllicott Tuesday morning, there were about two and a half bus loads of people waiting to get to Main Campus with no other bus in sight. Tell me that that is improvement! I know 1 speak for more people than myself, and 1 would hope that you too will write to the people in charge of buses and let them know how you feel. If no one else will say it, “Thank you Ridge Road and I wish you were back driving.” Wednesday, 17 March ... David A. Lipetz 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �■* Guest Opinion CAREER by Charles R.

Such participation in the drafting of Report which is connected with and recommends the retrenchment of units and individuals effectively pits the victims of this process against those who participate in it. This not only makes it more difficult to defend the victims of retrenchment, but effectively undermines the collective bargaining process and the rights of all members of the University.

There is no recognition of the fact that-individuals have given years of their lives tQ the University and frequently have already passed through one or more evaluations of their - work, In general, we must point out the insecurity into which the basic principles of this Report, if accepted, will throw the entire University. Programs today may see that appear immune from their positions undermined seriously in a short period of time. No individual would have more than minimal and short term guarantees. We cannot stress too much the fact that a new contract is presently being negotiated. Acceptance of the present Report will have serious repercussions on that process. While today programs are being rated against each other, tomorrow every individual,' irrespective of program, fnay be ranked against every other, and against all possible'candidates for a given position. Such an eventuality would throw the entire University into continual turmoil and subject each one of us to shifting criteria of the administration and to constantly accelerated “productivity” demands. The UUP calls on aU faculty and professional staff to refuse to endorse this Report. The only way to guarantee true standards of academic life is by the establishment of a.contract, binding on the state and the administration, that guarantees essential rights to faculty and professional staff, and that basically protects the University for the students and the general public. The only way to ensure that kich a contract will be forthcoming is for all faculty and professional staff to become active members of UUP. Only then will we be able,to effectively participate in the real decision-making process of the University, in the a healthy University life that will truly interests^ of serve the' needs Of the genefal public.

He also accused the Department of Health, Education and Welfare of “playing some game” in its attempt last year to force the Buffalo school system to remove its minority teachers from black schools and predominantly to them reassign evenly throughout the district. He said that people in the black community had fought hard to get black teachers assigned to their schools, and that for HEW to | attempt to remove them before solving any of the schools’ numerous problems was “asinine and stupid.” I It was also made clear by | Gaiter that BUILD’s views- vnre | not necessarily those of die UPA.

The Governor’s new austerity measures call for the elimination of the State University Scholarship (SUS) fund and a 10 percent across the board cut hi Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards for grad students at a purported savings of $2 million. The cost of graduate school tuition at SUNY currently stands at $1600. The maximum TAP award is $600. TAP is usually supplemented by the taxpayer-supported SUS fund which frequently assumes the lion’s share of the tuition balance. SUS grants can cover the entire tuition charge when the maximum TAP incentive is awarded. If the state legislature approves the Executive Budget, however,, graduate and professional students on full TAP-SUS scholarships may no longer be able to afford their schooling costs. 3,188 students receive the full graduate student scholarship package in the state. Of these, 1214 or 40 percent, afe at the State University at Buffalo, making this school the hardest hit of the SUNY Arthur Eve, the response wasn't very encouraging, he said. The students met with officials of SUNY central and presented a protest petition to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer which was signed by SO percent of the graduate and professional students here. Both Eve and Carey were unavailable for comment. The student lobbyists found that many legislators were upset over supposed graduate student “subversion" of the TAP emancipation option. The clause, found on the New York State Scholarship Application, can be signed by the student to indicate that he/slie is financially independent of his/her parents and, therefore, may qualify for the maximum TAP award. But SUNY Central Financial Coordinator Lefkovitz has revealed that the majority of emancipation clause misuse is attributable to undergraduates;- the reason being that by Jeff Edwards are undergraduates generally "younger, and more Spectrum Staff Writer likely to depend ©n their parents financially.

"While there still may be Judaic Studies courses in Feinrider seriously questioned New York State's peripheral areas,” Silverman said, “the program cannot be run regressive in that those who receive the most suffer the steepest cuts. “If these proposals are initiated, commitment to Affirmative Action in light of satisfactorily and give students a decent education in the area without minorities will be squeezed out and SUNY will be scholarship cuts that will affect minorities the the core courses. “In short, the program will be wrecked,” he transformed into a lily white institution,” he hardest. “The poorest third of the graduate student concluded. maintained. population cannot absorb the substantially higher Last week, Feinrider and six other graduate cost of graduate education.” he said. “Can the Besides teaching two or three courses a semester, Silverman students were in Albany lobbying against the University continue to uphold tills principle in good coordinates the entire Judaic Studies curriculum.

According to Congressional legislation authorizing the BEOG program, students arc eligible for a maximum $1400 grant. However the BEOG application states, “it is estimated that during the 1976-77 academic year the awards will range between $50 to $1000.” A spokesman for the Basic Grants division in the Office of Education told NSL that the $1000 figure was used in the application because Congress.had not appropriated enough funds to offer fulf-size grants to students. Beginning February 17,Congress will begin to consider a Supplemental Appropriations bill that,'p would provide additional funds to thie BEOG program for the coming school year. An'Vsfihlated $600 million are needed in order to offer maximum pants of S-M00 to eligible students. In making the charge against the Education office, NSL did not dispute the fact that the money is currently not available to offer $1400 grants. But the Lobby did criticize it for not including an explanation about the grant reduction in the BEOG application. v « “According to law, students are entitled to a griuti. Congress will have to decide if enough $1400 - anyone else, but added that the Office of Education would expect a number, of inquiries about the grant reduction. “You can bet there are going to be some perhaps from some attorneys as well,” inquiries said Pressman. “We really can’t blame Congress for not appropriating enough money because they depended on the Office of Education to provide estimates on the number of students who would participate in the BEOQ program. The Office estimated that 56 percent of BEOG applicants would be eligible for an award in 1975-76, but instead, 74 percent were eligible. Now it appears that a lot of students are going to suffer because of the Education office’s miscalculations, i can see why they would be reluctant to explain that in the application for this a. year.” NSL has called on the Office of Education to disseminate revised irifdrrhatiqn on BEOG awards following Congressional action. NSL has also announced a nationwide student lobbying effort -which will focus on the BEOG supplemental appropriation. NSL is asking students to contact members of Congress during February and March and urge their support for the much-needed student-aid funds. NSL has singled out the members of the Senate and House Labor-HEW Appropriations Sub-committees, who have jurisdiction over financial aid appropriations, as the prime targets of the student lobbying effort. - ■ The recommendation of the President’s Academic Planning Committee to offer Vico College courses “under the aegis of the Departments of Faculties of the University” has apparently confused Vico representatives. “We can’t figure out, what they mean,” said Vico Residential Director Mike Wing. The report recommended that Vico courses be taken over by departments, but that the College be maintained as “a focus for humanities.” “Will our funding be discontinued?” Wing asked. Vico College representatives have sent a letter of inquiry to President Robert Ketter, requesting- an explanation of the Committee’s report and stressing the importance of maintaining Vico with adequate funding and a coordinator. According to Wing, Vico College was criticized underenrollment. However, the College wishes to remain small. “We have 40 faculty members representing 13 departments and 100 or so residential members,” Wing said, “We are justbeginning to develop a community spirit.” Vico College offers humanities courses cross-listed with departments, dealing with philosophy and the histojy of ideas." Courses arc taught by regular University faculty and the program is maintained by a coordinator and a $12,000 budget. “If the funding is dropped, it would mean the end of the program,” Wing said. The future of the Vico program remains contingent on the response to Vico’s letter of inquiry and Ketter’s final decision on the Academic Planning Committee recommendations. of (he lobb ta cfrorl, NSL is asking come to Wshlnglon, D C April 2-6. students to JSLSST!?

The UFW’s boycott covers lettuce and grapes grown in parts of California and Arizona where growers have refused to sign contracts with the union. In addition, the boycott covers Gallo wines and jmy other wines produced in Modesto, California. Many people today are uninformed about UFW activities because of insufficient press coverage. The union is working to overcome this problem. Still many sympathetic persons believe that the boycott is over and farmworkers have finally gained their rights. But the contracts signed by UFW and the growers in 1970 expired three years later. They were renewed, but not with UFW. The Teamsters Union signed contracts with die growers in 1973 instead and claimed to represent the years Teamsters never called a force the growers to allow to chose their Union.

Animal entrails Later in the week, students and faculty members at William Patterson College in Wayne, New Jersey smashed a window and ripped two doors from their hinges as they tried to gain access to a closed meeting of the college’s Board of Trustees. The protesters were angered by the recent Bring of 38 teachers. Patterson College was also the scene of a demonstration a few days after die Board of Trustees incident when about 400 students left a spontaneous rally, marched off to the school’s administration building where about 150 students swept inside and demanded to see the president. The president, who has since resigned under Trustee pressure, was not in the building at die time and the crowd dispersed. At Wayne State University (WSU) in Detroit, three students angry at what they called WSU president George Gullen’s “insistence at running a factory rather than a school,” invaded the executive wing of the school’s administration building and scattered about smelly globs of animal entrails on the office floors of the top three university administrators. Included in the mess was the head of a decomposed goat.

WSU has been forced to take the budget axe to just about everything. “We’ve just about reached the stage of cutting back on toilet paper,” quips WSU executive vice president Edward Cushman, also a former American Motors vice president. His office was not spared the animal innards on the day of the attack. WSU President Gullen is actually no stranger to dead animal parts. Last spring, in the midst of a chaotic meeting dealing with the phaseout of a widely praised experimental college within the university, he and the WSU Board of Governors were presented with a huge pig’s head by a student member of the Worker’s Revenge Party.

The report showed that the lowest mortality rate is associated contraceptive with natural methods (like rhythm) backed up by abortions. But this course would require most women to have one or two abortions in the course of their lifetimes, a practice most medical authorities do not condone. The only exception to the low mortality rate with major birth control methods is for women over 40 years of age who take birth control pills.

' * China Night great success by Kenneth Norman Spectrum Staff Writer SB The Chinese Student Association ushered in the year of the Dragon Saturday night with China Night ’76 at Amherst Central High School. „ Add these words to your basic vocabulary now, whether or not'you’re planning a trip to Mexico soon. SPANISH chocho gargarizando sacamuelas bulla manteca pantufla ENGLISH The entertainment, provided by University students, was informal as the Chinese students shared a part of 'their culture with the audience which was approximately 50 percent non-Chinese. The program began with the Dragon Dance four people supporting a huge, colorful dragon on sticks as another performer teased the snaking monster,, This lively act helped stir up the viewers after the relaxing dinner. Next was the Fairy Dance by Evelyn Lai and Lolin Wang. This performance was plagued, as were some others, by the harsh lights of zealous patrons — childish old man gargling quack dentist soft coal lard bedroom sir with movie cameras. Here at Jose Cuervo, we belie an informed consumer i$ an informed consumer. Teh Wah Chen played a Chinese instrument that looked and sounded like a small harp laying on its side. ».;’m Wu . Shu,, an exhibition of martial arts, was appreciated by the crowd, not as much for perfection of the moves as for its informality. The audience ftlt at ease, sometimes laughing at the flubs, such as when two blindfolded fighters could not find each other for a few second?. A sparring match between Wu and Peter Tse, with their quick exchange of punches and an exhibition of the Northern style of fighting by Norman Chiu provided an exiting highlight to the show. Some modern Chinese songs, often heard on ' B^^ED UBY^W^8eUBLEIN. ,INC.! hARTPORD. CONN. ; IMPORTED AND The celebration consisted of a traditional dinner, with egg rolls, Chinese vegetables, and fortune cookies, and a variety show, accompanied by two one-act plays. Both dinner sittings were sold out and the performers played before a full house. radio stations in China, were featured by Lin Chi Liu, Yuchi Peng and Shyanyaw Liou and then by Eddie Cheung backed by Nelson Liu on violin and Kin Fun Wong on piano. The latter was the best musical performance in the show. The final performance in the variety show was Day,” a Chinese folk dance in the Fisherman’s “A traditional style. During intermission there was an awards ceremony for the winners in the Chinese Student Association’s table tennis and basketball tournaments and a raffle of 26 prizes for ticket holders. The second part of the program featured two plays. Put Down Your Whip and The Yellow River, intended to portray the spirit of the Chinese people. Put Down Your Whip by Yiu Jing dramatized the invasions of' China by foreign armies in the 1930’s. The dialogue was in Chinese with an English translation flashed on a screen at stage right. The play, set in a small street, opens with an old acrobat staging a show for donations from the village people. The acrobat and his daughter haven’t eaten for days and the girl collapses during her act. Her father half-crazed from hunger starts to strike her with a whip until he is stopped by a villager, a V common worker. Their ensuing dialogue describes the invasion tj|iat drove them from their homes. The play ends with the worker stirring fhe villagers to fight to protect their country. The second play was a dance drama variation on the same theme, based on the music of Hsien Hsing-Hai. The five-scene drama depicts the Yellow River throughout Chinese history, beginning with the hardships of the river people, the attack by foreign invaders, and ending with a stirring battle and anexciting victory celebration for China.

Page seven �EditPrtal is, " Cutting coaches At last Sunday night's joint meeting of the old and new Committees of the Student Association (SA), two Executive I motions were passed that would cut off funds for men's and women's athletic coaches. Currently.. SA pays for two men's part-time coaches, two women's part-time coaches, and five assistant coaches, not to mention numerous student assistants.’ If the motions eliminating these positions are not rescinded, SA will deal intercollegiate athletics a gigantic blow. By not funding the women's coaches, SA leaves itself open to a Title IX lawsSit which could cost the University thousands of dollars in federal aid. Additionally, by refusing to fund assistant coaches, SA is effect tripping over its own feet. Executive Committee in members approved a budget for next year which-calls for eight men's sports to be funded at a Division I level of competition, yet by refusing to pay for assistants, they make it impossible for sports like wrestling, basketball and hockey to function as Division I operations. N Another meeting of the Executive Board was scheduled for yesterday afternoon. Hopefully, the officers present decided to rescind these motions and move on to the other inportant matters involving the athletic budget.

Anyone who doubts it is more than welcome to dome up to The Spectrum office, and sec for themself .how endorsements were written in past years, A final few words to those who question our “credibility.” and hence, the quality of the paper itself. The editors and writers of this paper arc aware of the fact that The Spectrums, is not The New York'Times or Washington Tost. To hold us up to that standard is almost as ridiculous as it is: unfair. But the 30 odd people associated with ibis newspaper, who spend as much as 30 hours P*r week in this office while at the same time carrying a full course load deserve a little more yellow credit than groundless cries of journalism” from people who don’t even know what the term means, r — — , 1 f Howard Greenblatt Managing Editor The Spectrum Pick me a winner Knock, knock I o the editor To the Editor This may seem like sour grapes, but it is not. I am writing this letter as a student worried about the future of our University. A future which has been dealt a severe blow this past week, when six persons based on 20 minute interviews decided what Should have been decided by the students. The Spectrum showing all the attributes 6f an authoratarian government picked the new executive committee of the Student Association (SA). They did this by overstepping their editorial powers, and literally telling the students which candidates should get the positions. A job of a newspaper should be to report to the people all the necessary information they need to know about the candidates, not pick them. We might as well abolish the elections if its just going to be a rubber stamp of whomever The Spectrum picks. In its endorsements The Spectrum mentioned some qualifications that certain candidates had, and did not mention them when other candidates had the same qualifications! Is this fair? They took quotes out of context, and came t<5 some conclusions which they did not back up with facts, and had no possible way in which they could justify. As a result of all this, we did hot elect the best possible candidates for the positions, which we would have done if the students had chosen the winners. In thp name of Democracy I request, and in the name of the students I demand, that The Spectrum never again endorse candidates! I find it appalling that the editors of The Spectrum waited until last Wednesday, the first day of elections, before badgering the candidates they -happened to disagree with. The people who wrote Wednesday’s editorial pertaining to the candidates obviously care little about the ethics of journalism since they made no attempt to follow them. It was definitely unfair to Jeff Lessoff that your attacks on him were published before any votes were cast, while his rebuttal was not published until Friday, after most of the votes were already cast. It was not fair to any of the other candidates you knocked down either. Unfortunately, an immense amount of power has been placed in the hands of a small, elite few who have just shown us that they know how to abuse it. Whoever wrbte Wednesday’s editorial owes the candidates they attacked and the student body as a whole an apology. As a conclusion, I note one statement in the introduction to the editorial which reads, “We feel that a less aggressive approach on The Spectrum's part might foster more independent thinking on the voter’s part.” Why don’t you practice what you preach? Chuck Ferrara Editor's response Jeff! Lessoff did not submit his until Wednesday afternoon, the deadline note: for Friday's paper.

Those \ijiib charge that we weA; “biased” in our treatment of the candidates J could not be of course we were biased more accurate biased in favor of those candidates who, on the basis of interviews, we judged to be more fit for office than their opponents. “Unbiased” endorsements do not exist. That is a minor point. though, for hopefully most people understand that the Editorial Page of a newspaper reflects editorial opinion and Wednesday’s The Spectrum was no exception. Evidently, there are students rhete who feel that there was something underhanded, subtle, and devious about the way of the candidates. we presented That the editorial appeared on the first day of the election (as.Jt has for a few years now) was unavoidable. That it appeared at all, considering the time and work involved in interviewing and evaluating nearly 30 candidates, as, in fact, remarkable. National newspapers may not endorse candidates on the day of the election sure but candidates for national political offices campaign for longerthan 10 days! If the people on this campus who purport to understand “journalistic ethics” knew half as much about ttaq dynamics of physically producing a newspaper, then perhaps the existing editorial board of The Spectrum could resign, confident that capable, dedicated people would t move in and take over. A few basic facts. 1First, a special eight page supplement was set aside so that all the candidates could present their qualifications, goals, and ideas. No one, therefore, was at a .

(The $1460 figure derived by adding $400 to the present $1600 tuition fee and then subtracting the new maximum TAP amount, $540, after the 10 percent decrease.} Provisions like these are particularly disturbing when one considers that sentiment in Albany favors tuition assistance for students in private institutions. If people such as Lieutenant Governor Mary Ann Krupsak insist on channelling taxpayers' dollars away from public higher education it can only bring about the demise of the State University system and deny thousands of students the opportunity to further their studies. Should the legislature approve the cuts in graduate assistance, more students at this University than at any other school in the state will be forced to abandon their educational goals and look for work. What's worse, those minority and working who can leist afford to foot the bill will lose the vital source of income that is class students keeping them in school. Graduate students, who often teach the majority of lower level courses in addition to assisting faculty in University research, are too valuable an asset in the scarce resources system to treat so callously. Given keep money to public therefore, the state's first obligation is indispensable education to save in the public sector of the K SUS and TAP. programs such as mi 1 — ' *:&*'•-’**r*•*. k* As Managing Editor of The by cuts in Of all the groups in the SONY system that Budget, appears graduate it Executive Carey's Governor deal. to a of the addition the worst end got Irv students proposed $400 increase in graduate tuition, the Governor's austerity plan calls for the elimination of the State University Scholarship (SUS) fund and a 10 percent across the board cutjn Tuition Assistance Plan (TAP) awards.

Frontrunning a musical attack from the land of Chruchill might not be one of the easiest things for a band of barflys with a derivative foundation in all the classic recordings from the Atlantic archives, but at least they're trying. Frontrunning for who? Specifically, Or. Feelgood is in the unctuous position ol warming up the teenage stare of the States for the likes of other pub ejecta: essentially they function as warm-up for BeBop Deluxe and Roxy Music. Shame. In their own right Feelgood caresses the nod and causes the rumblings of rumbling in the blood. Their music is loud, fractious, and rooted. From the terminal purulence of Eric Burdon’s "Boom, Boom" to the undercutting punk larceny of the Champs "Tequila" these archaic musical arachnids prove the age old rock adage that it's not the girls that can't help it, it's the boyslll Tight pants, pointed shoes, Nehru jackets and awkward angular stances coped very judiciously from every rock n roll movie ever made, combine to form the mise en scene for Feelgood music, no props other than people, which is an excitation in and of itself these days. No drags, no, drugs, no dergs, no slags, just modified Skinheads looking for the right to calm the vermilion swell of vaccuum brained she-noodles.

Meet Jay-Jay, the logical contraction of John John, and the modern day descendant of Huck Finn, Robinson Crusoe and even Sir Jay-Jay is eleven, lives in New York City and has just escaped his cruel foster home by running away. He takes up residence in Central Park and has adventures enough to make the most hardened adult start daydreaming. It is an enchanting hand-to-mouth existence; he adopts a stray dog and even rescues a nice old lady from a mugger. ' This book is more than a pure adventure yarn; it offers insight into the workings of the mind of a child, something most of us have forgotten. At times Jay-Jay is extremely logical — he destroys all possible traces of his past and also realizes that those traces he cannot get to will not be found for a long time. He has the. usual compliment of flights of fancy.The park is his domain and he its ruler, hence the self-adopted titlee "the Prince of Central Park." He is tender. The tree house he builds has no nails because nails might hurt the tree. And he is loving. His only contact with the adult world is the woman he rescues from Elmo, one of the most despicable villans I have ever met. The story has been seen on TV and Book-of-the-Month Club made a mistake in choosing thfe as an alternate, instead of a primary selection. We need more such blends of fantasy and reality. A.

Wednesday, 3 March 1976 . �Television Sports coverage a perfect marriage of sight and sound by Phillip Krause Spectrum Arts Staff Television's coverage of sports is generally considered one of the medium's most successful endeavors both financially and aesthetically. In 1975, the three networks devoted over 1100 hours (an average of more than three each day) to sports programming. And 1976 will bring even more sweat into our living rooms. — One of the reasons for the overwhelming popularity of sports Television does not merely a sporting event. The industry uses each event to create a ''show," a form of entertainment that is supposed to be better than actually being there. "Sport" and "sport on television" have developed into two separate entities and, for most fans, the latter has become the reality. People can now consider themselves "fans" of a sport without having to be bothered by going to any of the games; for them, if a game isn't on television, it simply doesn't exist. Even when these intrepid souls are somehow persuaded to venture from their video cocoons "live" and attend a game leaving behind Curt Gowdy and his slow-motion instant replay (of everything in they are no longer satisfied with just watching the action. They must be fed a constant stream of extraneous (non-)information, whether it is from a million-dollar scoreboard, the .disc jockey moonlighting as a P.A. announcer, or the radio they smuggle in with their thermos of report — television is the medium's sport from the realm of the (more-or-less) purely visual. Television is ideally a technological marriage of sight and sound. In sports, it has found the area in which the two complement each other almost perfectly: turn off the sound and you can still watch the action; darken the picture and you can listen to the commentary. Put them together and you have "radio with pictures," a cultural phenomenon that causes marriages to break up, beer guts whiskey. to be cultivated, and Murine, Inc. The ultimate to pay stock dividends. absurd tribute on success ip removing — — — and — television to control our sense of reality is the fact that many of the newer sports arenas have been built with giant television screens suspended from the ceiling. Now you can go to the game without having to miss it on television. The deadly hype Competition among the networks for the loyalty of this tire- and battery-buying public is high. So high, in fact, that, especially in mid-winter, after the Super Bowl has been hyped to death and the only NFL action is in the courtroom, there simply aren't enough genuine sporting events to go around. The networks, however, are not about to abandon their potentially profitable weekend time slots to public service (read: "boring") programs and reruns of My Mother the Car. Like the government that mints money as it needs it (and devalues all of the money supply), the networks, by a (techno)logical extension, simply most to the power — very simply —- concoct their own sporting events. i Just as television proclaimed its semi-independence from the film industry by making its- own "movies" and passing them off as of equal to — if not better than — any of Hollywood's creations, the networks, by eliminating the middle man of organized sports, have committed themselves and a lot of stockholders' money to these phony, made-for-television — — non-events. the athletes they want will be where they want when they want them,. Thus, sport on television moves closer to the realm of drama: athletes. become actors who talk of changing their image, the events receive lofty titles, arenas become theaters and Jimmy Connors gets rich. Led by CBS and, to a lesser — degree qualitatively, if not quantitatively ABC, this trend — — produced such shows as Superstars (a decadent-thalon of 'I stars, many of whom you have has never heard of before), the Heavyweight Championship of Tennis series (in which Jimmy Connors, the Coriolanus of the courts, will play anyone wearing matching wrist bands). Challenge of the Sexes (along with weekend news andnorpersons, television's concession to Women's Lib), the >J NFL Players Association Armwrestfmg Championship (who won? who cares?), George Foreman vs. "the Five Stiffs" (I know who won and I don't cqif e), the Foolish Pleasure-Ruffian match race (see Challenge of the Sexes equine division), and last and definitely least Almost Anything Goes. — — — Results guaranteed do the networks Level of incompetence have to worry about upsets in The best thing that can be said playoffs or preliminary rounds of about all of this "jock Schlock" is a tournament. In one lamentable that CBS at least tries to present stroke, they can guarantee that athletes performing in their No longer chosen fields. That would be bearable. But ABC, the paradox of the picture tube, the network that can do such a fine job in its presentation of the Olympics and then turn around and offer Almost Anything Goes (in prime time yet), seems determined to humanize its athletes, to the point of embarrassment, by having them compete in a variety of sports, none of which is their specialty. It can be a very painful experience to learn that your boyhood idol (who can hit a baseball 500 feet) needs training wheels on his bicycle and couldn't swim if his life depended on it which it almost did. (Who can forget Joe Frazier's imitation of a piece of obsidian doing the Australian crawl?) At first glance, it might seem — that, in its quest to control every factor of. production, television has finally succeeded in removing from sports as much of the spontaneity and unpredictability as possible. However, an examination of last year's ten highest-rated sports telecasts reveals that all of them were genuine events that "real" would have taken place with or without Chris Schenkel and his superlatives. And eight of them were broadcast on NBC, the one network that emphasizes live productions of genuine events. There is hope, sports fans. — Buffalo Philharmonic Arestrained performance by Karen Szczepanski rjtf & Mike McGuire !;.'k Stri Associate Conductor Robert Cole led the Buffalo Philharmonic through a somewhat restrained all-Mozart program Saturday night in Kleinhans Music Hall. The program included performances of the overture to "The Magic Flute," the Piano Concerto No. 24 in C minor (K. 491), and the "Jupiter" Symphony (K. 551), three of Mozart's most popular masterpieces. A bright rendition of the "Magic Flute" overture opened the evening. The relatively drab setting of a concert hall detracted from the feelings of anticipation produced by the music. Unfortunately, the end of the overture did not produce the brightly costumed operatic singers one hoped for. Dana Perelman was the technically perfect, if Jazz great Elvin Jones brings his quartet to the Tralfamadore Cafe March 1'lth through the 14th. The quartet consists of Pat LaBarbera on reeds and flute, Ryo Kawasaki on guitar, David Williams on bass, and, of course, Elvin on drums. There will be two shows each night at 9 p.m. and 12 midnight. Tickets are priced at $4 and can be purchased at the Tralfamadore and Record Runner. somewhat mechanical soloist for the Piano Concerto. The interplay of orchestra and piano seemed unduly restrained; the subtleties of the music were so understated as to sometimes be ignored. It was only in the last (Allegretto) section that Ms. Perelman came to life, and the orchestra followed her lead. The elusive, "cat & mouse" quality of this movement saved the piece from being relatively devoid of excitement: Ms. Pere.man, originally from Kenmore, was a bit too serious and lacking in emotional intensity perhaps a lingering effect of being an ex-child prodigy. Her ability, while impressive, is simply not inspired. The "Jupiter" Symphony was a finely-executed — piece on which the orchestra lavished its full love and attention. The youthfulness of the orchestra finally seeped through to the music on this composition. Although not played at a brisk tempo, the music floated smoothly. The song-like qualities of the Menuetto section contrasted nicely with the lively Allegretto section. However, the listener was not jolted by the change in tempo progressions were made smoothly and naturally. One gets the feeling that Mozart somehow would have made the orchestra play with a little more spirit at many points. There seemed to be a certain air present that dampened the brilliance of his compositions. Perhaps truly great music does not lendjtself so well to being performed by somber musicians in a hall of dressed-up people. This isn't to suggest classical concerts should be put on like rock concerts, since it requires somewhat more concentration to be enjoyed. But yet, there is no particular reason why classical musicians need all be dressed alike, entirely in black formal wear (a white formal gown in the case of Ms. Perelman). There is no particular reason people should feel restrained from shouting "Bravo!" or something similar after the fine performance of the last piece. Yet nobody people confined themselves to clapping, did although enthusiastically. But still, if you have any taste for classical music, the Philharmonic is generally excellent and well worth checking out. — — Wednesday, 3 March 1976 .

To the Editor: 1 wish to clarify the remarks regarding restrictive covenants that were made by Frank Mesiah and myself at the seminar at the University Saturday, February 21. While it is true that we have uncovered thousands of restrictive covenants in all of the surrounding suburbs of Buffalo, we should have stated, if we did not, that the restrictive covenants in their original form go back to the 1930’s, 1940’s and Dana Dubbs’ article on vegetarian diet was a Immoriin+o TzZSfXJTliiti wcnnnw ITJlTTlSCllQLS > very good message to the Main Street campus"and hopefully the surrounding communities. However, this letter is in response to a Feb. 25, 1976 letter to To the Editor: This is a follow-up to my letter of February 9 concerning registration. On February 10 I received a call from Ken 4 Herrmann who worjcs with the computer at -Ridge Lea. He had seen my letter and said that he could ftrlighten the whole thing out. That afternoon I went to see him arid he explained that it 'had,' indeed, been a computer mistake. H3 also said that if the registration advisors had looked at the computer sheet, they would have noticed something was wrong and the problem could havj Been rectified long ago. Finally, he registered me in all the classes I wanted. I would like to thank The Spectrum for printing my letter and especially thank Ken Herrmann for 1950’s. To my knowledge, we have not discovered any restrictive covenants which were written after the early 1950’s. However, our point was that these massive restrictive covenants clearly establish a foundation for our case against the suburbs, if we ever go to court with it, because they show that the federal government and the municipalities involved contained blacks and other minorities in Buffalo, thus perpetuating segregation in Buffalo, and keeping blacks from owning homes in the suburbs surrounding the city. not ignoring it. - the editor that was written by a medical student. After reading his reply, “Plants have feelings too,” one could immediately assume that he’s a vegetarian also; if not then he must be eating his heart out. Then after reading his last sentence, “we must stop fucking around,” it was clear tljat his objective was to avow his overall ignorance to the entire matter. The preceding response is relevant. Nonetheless our essential concern goes out to those health and diet conscious individuals who could possibly be dispaired by the dubiousness of the medical student’s letter. Yes, vitamin B12 deficiency could be harmful, however, dairy products and eggs will suffice for the exclusion of meat from your diet. Also, if one maintains an adequate diet, with the exception of meats, a vitamin B12 deficiency isn’t apt to occur. - Davjcfoilliken ( Concerned members of “Buffalo Animal Rights Committee’’ Norman Goldfarb Co-Chairman, Citizens Council on Human Relations Student succession Squirrel coats To the Editor. I wish to make a moderate proposal concerning the split of opinions over the right of Student Services to exist. It is becoming increasingly evident, even to the most apathetic student (myself) that lines have been drawn and the conflict over Student Services is coming to a head Dr. Ketter has tried to make this campus’s existence more amendable to the community by attempting to cut out student services that are in direct competition with businesses in the area. A after all we don’t want to cause noble thought someone to go broke. The S.A. and other organizations have argued that students have the right to provide (heir own services. The argument is sound in that the large student population which this area maintains is due solely to the fact that the University exists. Had there never been a University, these businesses which thrive off student monies would never have opened here. As it stands now, the issue is most likely going to be settled in the courts. I would like to offer a moderate alternative. I propose that the students secede. The Student Association would use its one million dollar budget to hire a new administration. The State and Faculty would, .gypport the new administration. After all, how Would it look if they continued to allocate funds and instruct classes for an administration of a University which boasted no students.

The following statement concerns the troubles of the campus squirrels due to unleashed dogs. I am assuming that the dogs in question are owned by people associated with the University (students, faculty, administrators, drunks). The thought of having one’s dog continually bound by a leash is often repugnant to the owner. I realize this, and it militates against my demanding that dogs be leashed. But one cannot allow unleashed dogs without accepting the death of a few squirrels. After all, dogs will be dogs, as the saying goes; and they apparently like to kill squirrels (or play with them a little too roughly). My proposal is that the dead squirrels should be put to some use. The owners of the canines could use the squirrel pelts to make coats for their dogs. These coats would keep the dogs warm in the winter when there are no squirrels to chase.

P»gt thirteen i *a �A Zionist's view Defense of fencing languages of Isrgel are To the Editor To the Editor: The SA Financial Committee is now in the process of formulating an athletic budget for next year. The latest proposal calls for eliminating Cross Country, Fencing and Track. I would like to speak in defense of the Fencing team, as I feel that it holds a place unique among sports here at U.B. Fencing is more than just a sport at U.B. It is a tradition spanning the past 40 years. Although it began rather modestly, it quickly developed to the point where U.S.’s Fencing team was a super-power in the Northeast in the 1950’s and 1960’s. The prestigious North Atlantic Fencing Championships were first conceived of and held in Buffalo 26 years ago by the team’s former Maitre, Coach Sidney Schwartz. Today, coaches Jim Marchant and Bela Babus are trying to make Buffalo the center for fencing in Western New York. Buffalo’s fencing team has declined from its position of strength in the late 1960’s to where we are now which is still as one of the better teams around. The reason for this decline is primarily due to the budgetary problems that all small sports at this University have experienced. Few promising athletes would come to a school where their sport was in constant danger of elimination. But despite this, we have maintained fencing on a very high level up until now, and have the respect of the best fencing. This year, for example, we have competed against five of the NCAA’s top ten teams a claim that few, if any of our other sports can — - ’ make. Secondly, it is my contention that by eliminating fencing from our athletic program, we are being pound-wise and penny-foolish. For a fraction of what it costs to run our major sports, we can run fencing at a very high level. This year, we have about 25 fencers, with all of them seeing action during the course of the season. If utilitarianism is an issue to be considered in the funding of athletics, it would seem to make sense to continue with the fencing team. There is a final reason why fencing should stay as a sport here. Anyone that is willing to learn can fence, make varsity, and do well. A former captain of our team came to U.B. knowing nothing about fencing and yet took third place at the North Atlantics as a junior. We have at this time a woman on our starting varsity, and she has met with a lot of success this year. Fencing is not a sport that is restricted to any one type of person. There are no ' physical education majors on the team (why, I don’t know). The “average” U.B. fencer is a Biology or an Engineering major. The small teams at U.B. give these people the opportunity to get involved in NCAA sports, whereas otherwise they wouldn’t have the chance. There are a lot of good reasons why fencing serves an important purpose and deserves to remain as an intercollegiate sport. As was demonstrated with kiss it football, once a sport gets cut here goodbye; and one never realizes how good something is until it is taken avtay from them. — Joel Solomon Captain, U.B. Vanity Fencing Elia* goes to the Vatican to back up his claims, Forgive me my cynicism, but when the Vatican speaks on Middle Eastern atrocities they have a tendency to forget about certain acts. Acts such as Israeli children being thrown out of windows, of athletes being murdered in Munich, or of bombs being exploded in theaters, He mentions a mosque being destroyed, yet Elias is curiously silent as to the destruction of cemeteries. One cemetery in particular dated back to the tune of Jesus. This cemetery was destroyed so that an access road to an airport might be built. The airport, and access road is in Syria. Syria! The land where 4500 Jews are not allowed to emigrate from As an American Zionist who read John Elias* criticism of Samuel Print*** letter on the situation in Lebanon (The Spectrum: 2-18 and 2-2Q) I would like to voice my opinions oh several of.Elias’ statements. Mote specifically. 1 would like to question several of his statements regarding Israel. Elias referred to Israel as “The Zionist occupation of Palestine.” Using this phrase he denies recognition of the existence of the State of Israel. Since he doesn’t accept the existence of Israel, I am tempted to not accept the existence of John Elias, However, he has had a letter published in a newspaper, and the newspaper exists, so someone must exist who writes under the name John Elias. He stated that: “The bloodshed was introduced by some racist groups like Haganah.” He implied that the 1948 war was the beginning 'Of the bloodshed. Just as it is untrue td say that the Haganah began the bloodletting, it js untrue to say that the killing began in 1948. The riots of 1920 and *21, the “Jerusalem riots” as they were called were perhaps the beginning of the fighting. In these riots 52 Palestinians were killed by mobs. The dead were Jews, the mobs were Arab. Arab bands went oh to kill 5(7 Jews in Palestine between 1936 and 1939. Many of the mobs and riots were incited by the Mufti of Jerusalem. The Mufti was to become a Nazi war criminal, only to be pardoned by the British, The New York Times said this about him: “Extremist followers of the Mufti are rapidly achieving their aims by eliminating political opponents in Palestine who are inclined toward moderation!” (October IS, 1938) As for Elias’ ideas that “the Christians or Moslem; that need to be cried for are (those) living under the Zionist Occupation “I think they are unfounded. There have always been Arab Moslems in the Israeli Parliment. The Arab citizens of Israel are citizens in every sense of the word, they can vote because they will swell the ranks of the Zionist army. Where aside from the 10 p.m. curfew on all Jews every night, and the roll calls each day, Jews are not allowed to travel more than three miles, hold public office, vote in any election, go to college, obtain drivers licenses or practice any profession. Syria, where an Israeli spy was caught, and in spite of worldwide appeals to, in the name of human compassion, spare Eli Cohn’s life, was hanged. So much for Arab hospitality, or human compassion, In a recent TIME magazine (Feb. 9, 1976) George Habash, the leader of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said this: “Suppose they offered us SO percent of Palestine? Would we accept? NO! No Arab can accept a racist state in Palestine that regards Arabs as second class citizens.” As to a “Racist state in Palestine” that regards Jews as second class citizens, we can only speculate, Given the examples of how every state in the world which has had a Jewish minority has treated that minority, can the Palestinians be expected to act any differently?

Rather than raising women’s wages on a par with men, the bosses have tried to lower the wages of men, too and in some One of the working class’s most important holidays is March 8th, International Women’s Day. On March 8, 1908 women garment workers rose up against the sweatshop bosses in NYC. Since 1910 International Women’s Day has been celebrated in countries throughout the world, pointing out the cause of our oppression, the capital system and showing the way forward through revolution and socialism. Like all worken, women face speed-up, bad working conditions, low wages and every other form of exploitation in factories, offices, diops and hospitals. But women as a whole are faced with even lower wages than men, and particularly in this period of economic crises, higher unemployment. Many of the women who do not work are kept isolated in the home. The bosses try to use this situation to divide women and men. Right now a section of the rulers of this country are trying to get the Equal Rights Amendment through as an amendment to the Constitution. On the surface the ERA appears to be a good thing, giving women legal equality with men. In states * . cases have fired men and hired wotnen to work for less. As in any situation wherever there is oppression, there is resistance. Women have played a valiant role in the battle against all oppression. The women who formed the Women’s Emergency Brigade during the 1933 Flint Sit Down, our sisters who marched for the freedom of political prisoners in 1969, the Vietnamese women who fought alongside the men to liberate their country, and the wives of striking steelworkers who answered a letter from die bosses telling them to send their husbands back to work by picketing themselves, should serve as examples to us.

She also compiled the second best individual series at the New York State Championships this weekend, thus earning The Spectrum's Athlete-of-the-Week award.

They lost two games to Western Michigan University by one goal each, continuing the Division I jinx that has plagued the team since its inception.. But the Bulls also received notice that they had been selected to compete in the ECAC Division II playoffs for the first time since 1973. The Bulls are seeded last in the eight team playoff schedule, and therefore, will be playing dri the road at Merrimack in the opening round Saturday night. For the first time since anyone jean remember, there are more than just two schools from New York State in the playoffs, and that consideration is largely responsible for Buffalo’s selection to the tournament.

Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) chairman Howard Kling criticized the report for Affirmative Action violating principles, as well as utilizing cost-efficiency terms that are “alien to this University.” Kling felt the report, if followed, would “sterilize” the University by Smokescreen for cuts The committee, said Kling, is merely providing a “respectable smokescreen” for “crass, heavy cutbacks” 'here, one which would give sanction to the budget priorities of the state, if ere is a false sense of security among programs to be “maintained,” said Kling, since this designation ignores cutbacks being put into effect by the state. Ketter has been ordered by SUNY to cut 130 iflre. WuJfl of the Puerto Rican Studies Program, suggested that the was merely Planning Report “previously-made endorsing decisions” and it would serve to reinforce “historical patterns of discrimination” against minorities. Jose Pisarro, a student in Puerto-Rican Studies, agreed with Matilla, saying that minorities have always been “last hired, first fired.” Pisarro said the committee report called for a return to “the old ivory tower situation where everything is nice and white with no dirt around.” Ellen Dubois, professor of History and American Studies, said the report was “pernicious” in perpetrating divisions between needs Of students and needs of faculty. She went on to attack the “management values” of the committee members. , jBr H budget for next year asks for 125 more FTE’s to be cut, Kling said. Alfredo Matilla, acting director „ mwL i I Jyp B #K P£ Hr JV vw “ No ‘phasing up’ Molefi K. Asante, Chairman of Speech the Communications Department and Acting Chairman of Black Studies, said there was not a single instance when the Committee recommended a “phasing up” of programs for minorities. In addition, Asante charged that the Committee’s membership did not reflect Schwartz wins presidential contest by 545 vote margin A crowd of about 75 candidates and friends waited until well after midnight Friday night for the results of the Student Association (SA) election. The delay occurred because a car carrying most of the SA Elections and Credentials Committee broke down on the way from the Amherst Campus to Main Street. When the results were finally tabulated, Steven Schwartz of the Phoenix party was the victor in the Presidential contest and Steven Spiegel of Advocate was elected Executive Vice President. A total of 2898 undergraduates voted in the election. Schwartz won by a substantial margin, receiving1134 votes to 589 for Abdullah Wahaab and 542 for David Schapiro, his two closest rivals. The other three presidential contenders, Alan Donohue, John Boncek, and Daniel Scherrer received 194, 157, and 87, respectively. Schwartz said it was a “very tough campaign” and that he was really hoping for a party sweep. He added that this year will be a difficult one for SA and that “hopefully we will all work together quite well.” 1 No hard feelings Despite Schwartz’s strong showing, Spiegel was able to defeat Schwartz’s running mate David Brownstein, 937 votes to 815, with Jeffrey Lessoff receiving 696. Spiegel said he anticipated no problem working with the other new SA officers. “These parties were put together three- weeks ago and everyone knew each other before then, so there will be no strongly negative feelings between members of the different parties,” he said. Jonathan Roller of Advocate won the contest for Vice President of Sub Board with 969 votes, - * compared to 747 for Judith Sack and 609 for Kathleen Venezia. The race for Treasurer saw Carol Blcok win re-election over Robert Powell in a one-sided contest, 1848 votes to 587. According to SA lawyer Richard Lippes this was the largest individual votes total in SA history. Her 1261 vote margin is a sharp contrast to her slim 34 vote victory for Treasurer last ' ' year.' 4 • 4' PHOENIX sweeps SASU In the race for Director of Academic Affairs, Andrew Lalonde of Advocate won easily. He received 1147 votes to William Finkelstein’s 600 and Steve Walti’s 575. The new Director of Student Activities and Services will be Pat Lovejoy of the Salt and Peper party. She received 876 votes to 775 for Jeff Winkler and 611 for Dennis Black. The contest for Director of Student Affairs was the closest in the entire election. Lee Perres of Phoenix defeated Steven Ferst of Advocate' by the scant margin of 24 votes, 855 to 831. Andrea Gableman of Salt and Popper finished third with 580 votes. Frank Jackalone was the leader in a large field of candidates vying for one of three SASU Delegate slots. Jackalone had 1342 votes, Ilene Cohn was second with 1125 votes and Lynn Bittner captures the third position with 823 votes. All three were of the Phoenix party. This was a poor year for write-in candidates. The most votes any received was three. “educational diversity,” when that diversity should have been a major factor in its considerations. In response to faculty criticism of the Committee and its report. Committee co-Chairmen MacAllister Hull of the Graduate School and William Yearley of the History Department both defended its actions and methods. Hull said the academic planning process was limited to one year by the Chancellor of SUNY, and that the Committee’s interim report was done as quickly as possible in order to permit wide discussion. Addressing his remarks to criticism that the Committee was making decisions with an eye toward affecting budgets of the programs, Hull replied that “the Committee never viewed itself nor acted as a budget committee.” He pointed out that President Ketter first asked for an Academic Plan for the University in 1971, but early attempts failed. Yearley explained that the Committee was working with an uneven quality of information about various programs, sometimes derived from outside evaluations of a program. —continued on page 6— �3* Report recommends Puerto Rican Studies be phased out structure” at the undergraduate level, and the “apparently diffuse focus” at the graduate level.

Although it recommended the overall maintenance of American Studies, tHe’ Report recommended the Department’s phasing-out Puerto-Rican Studies Program. Cited for “good” and “growing” undergraduate student demand in addition to a “growing MA program,” the Program in American Studies was rated as “good to excellent.” Due to the absence of similar programs in the SUMY system, it was lauded as “excellent’ for the SUNY need profile, while simultaneously criticized as “inadequate” for the University’s need profile. The Committee was also concerned over the “apparent diffuseness of the program’s offering,” its “apparently loose University.” It also charged a “narrowness of clientele served,” “dubious academic quality,” and questioned the program’s “academic and intellectual justification.” a Terming the Report “hopelessly classic, bourgeois document,” and saying that is programs in Puerto-Rican Studies, Native American Studies, and Women’s Studies. In addition, the Program is “fully integrative,” in that it attempts to integrate “personal lives and movements for social change with the intellectual work of the university.” It is also Concerned with establishing a connection between the outside and University communities. Through governance, “participatory systematic involvement of students in graduate undergraduate teaching, and collective development of most material,” American course Studies attempts toV‘break downthe distinction between the content of our work and the process of education.” “reactionary” in nature, Frisch said it “showed no understanding of the programs’ values and the importance of interdisciplinary education. It showed a shallow and confused grasp of what goes on here educationally.” Frisch said the Department has been praised as “one of the most Teaches understanding The Puerto-Rican Studies unique and important American Studies programs in the country.” Program sees its purpose as He explained that its aim is on preserving and providing a fuller “understanding American cultural understanding of the Puerto-Rican a world culture.

Enrollment is not limited to Puerto-Rican students and is 30 to 40 percent non-Puerto-Rican. In response to the Report, Alfredo Matilla, acting director of the Program, said “They want to join the program within the American Studies system and at the same time reduce it so it will be lost.” The Program has been hard hit by budget cutbacks. Within the last five years, its budget has been cut 80 percent and its teaching staff has been reduced by about t>6 percent. Now, the bi-lingual and bi-cultural programs are also being'cut. Innovation or death? - innovative and socially relevant programs that are Recommended for elimination. If a program has an unusual social or- political content, is inter-disciplinary, innovative, represents an ambitious approach to a traditional field, speaks directly to the needs of undergraduates, or serves those “not traditionally served by the University by virtue of race, class, sex or ethnicity,” it is likely that they will rate low in the Report, he said..This is the “culmination of five years ofKetterism.” At the same time, “The Interim Report goes out of its way to note how well various departments serve their traditional those whose clientele; ‘community service’ is to government or corporations are also regularly cited.” Matilla also claimed that the enrollment pf Puerto-Rican students in the SUNY system has Re-departmentalization dropped and the employment of According to Matilla, “When a Puerto-Ricans in the entire system minority political force is not so constitutes less than 1 percent of present in the largely white the total working force. middle-class population, the In denouncing the Report, decision to eliminate it is a Frisch stressed that it is • the political one.” Frisch also spoke of the Report The Program now offers bi-lingual and bi-cultural programs as a “blueprint for a thoroughly re-departmentalized University,” because it brings all teaching and The Spectrum is published Monday, program development under the Wednesday and Friday during the academic year and on Friday only control of the traditional the summer by The during departments. ■Spectrum Student Periodical, Inc. “The Report undercuts the Offices are located at 355 Norton Hall, State University of New York role of this University.

Citing “limited graduate employability,” the committee “saw no reason” to grant the school’s request for expansion. George Bobinski, Dean of SILS, said it was “obvious that the committee had inadequate information upon which to base its judgement." The report indicated that although no accreditation reports on the school are currently available, a recent accreditation visit will soon produce one. Also, there is no way to assess the quality of the school’s student body.* • .n : According to Bobinski, however, copies of SILS’ 1972 accreditation report were available in Hayes Hall, as well as copies of a preliminary accreditation report for 1975. The 1972 report mentioned the “high caliber of students in the program,” and the 1975 document concurred, he emphasized. John Ellison, assistant professor of SILS, explained that there were several major “inadequacies” in the committee’s report, including “gross factual mistakes” leading to conclusions that some programs should be phased out, and other expanded. One-half of the academic programs which were recommended for increases were represented on the committee, and these representatives constituted three-fifths of all the committee members, according to Ellison. Of those programs slated for being phased out, none were directly represented, he asserted. Daniel Schabert, president of the Student Representatives of SILS, described the report as “inaccurate and misleading.” He cited as an example, a part of the report which stated that Geneseo and Cortland State Colleges have BA programs in Library Science when no such programs exist. The program at Geneseo, he explained, awarded a BS degree in Education with a major in Library Sciences. In any event, that program ended in 1969, he said. Bobinski felt that the report should have more fully explained why SILS was being “diminished.” There is little room for cutbacks in the program, he explained, since it only has 10 faculty members, no teaching assistants, and a low overall cost of operation. SILS offers a Masters Degree in Library Science (MLS), but does 'not have a PhD program because “we are unable to receive grants,” he ■ s , „ said. S1LS accepts students from most undergraduate programs, and has only recently been drawing from disciplines with poor employment prospects, Bobinski said. Spectrum “It’s like shooting somebody in the headland then accusing them of dying.” This is how the acting chairman of the Black Studies program, Molefi K. Asante, characterized the Academic Planning Committee’s “grossly unfair and misleading” evaluation of his department. The report recommends phasing out the program in Black Studies. Asante maintained that the administration has the last few years conducted a deliberate policy of in reducing the program’s appropriations, yet in the planning committee’s evaluation criticizes it for a “lack of coherence in its course offerings.” He indicated that if more monetary support were forthcoming this “supposed situation” would be ameliorated, and the program vastly strengthened. Academic relevance The report specifically questions the academic relevance of Black Studies. “In terms of the University and the SUNY profile of need, this program appears questionable,” it began. Asante took strong exception to this, contending that Black Studies along with Puerto-Rican Studies and the Center for International Studies helps form the hub of the University. The ideas and issues emerging from these programs are of great relevance to contemporary society, he added. Asante indicated that the report as a whole “was grossly unfair to many departments and was inadequately examined both in terms of academics and education. Although the document was initially an attempt to accomplish something worthwhile, it was poorly written and filled with inaccuracies, thus making the final product appear elitest,” he continued. Asante was elated with the Faculty Senate’s adoption of a resolution expressing “no confidence” in the report. The resolution, passed by a 3:1 margin with approximately 100 faculty members present, also calls for the reconstitution of the committee with more adequate representation of minorities. Dangerous trend Asante said the report accurately reflects faculty reaction to innovational and non-traditional approaches. He noted that this is part of a dangerous national trend. Asante strongly disagreed with the evaluations’ inference that Black Studies faculty do not iblish Although the MLS is the only degree granted by the school, there are several different areas of specialization, such as the School Media Specialist Program.

Students in the school who participate in internships with the Veterans Administration Hospital Library, and the Buffalo and Erie County Library, will definitely be hried on a full-time basis upon graduation, Bobinski said. “SILS is probably better known nationally than locally,” Bobinski explained. He said the school is considered progressive and “up and coming” because of its informational sciences and nonprint media programs. , graduates. —Center for the Study of Aging A Test.

SILS is currently a unit of the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences (FEAS) although Bobinski would like to see SILS divorced from FEAS and report directly to the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Gerald Shields, who is an SILS assistant professor, as well as the school’s Admissions and Placement Officer, said 76 percent of the 1975 graduates have jobs and 13 percent are unemployed. Half of the unemployed group is pursuing degrees in other areas, the other 11 percent of the 1975 graduates have not reported back to his office, Shields explained. A study by the U.S. Department of Labor indicated there will be a rise in the number of available librarian positions from 115,000 in 1970 to at least 162,000 in 1985, according to Shields, who added that the attrition rate of librarians will also increase thy demand for presents QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

Asante said the Journal of Black Studies, a periodical published by the program, is probably the foremost black journal in the nation. The committee’s evaluation only mentions it, but fails “to laud its eminent standing,” Asante said. Abdullah Wahab, co-director of the Black Student Union (BSU), expressed firm support for the Black Studies Program. He indicated that his organization is currently in the process of formulating a strategy to oppose the recommended program phase-out. Wahab said “it is the intention of the administration to use the budgetary crisis as an excuse to eliminate minority socially innovative programs. Realistically, Wahab doesn’t foresee the program being cut because, “the move would precipitate considerable turmoil on campus.” Wahab praised Asante’s performance as Black Studies acting chairman, lauding his administrative abilities and academic competent*. seminar "PHYSICAL FITNESS & THE ELDERLY" SPEAKERS- / 1:00 3:00 pm. 234 Norton - All arf cordially invited 2987 BAIlEY AVE. -836 3177 I - I } FEBRUARY J{march special} — ■ Bring in this ad fori j $1.00 OFF on J Beef Teriyaki - Dr. Harry Fritz-Dean, School of Health Educ.

An official statement by Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg is expected within a few days. The report suggests that College F (Tolstoy College) and Social Sciences College be eliminated, and that the rest of the colleges lose their status as credit-granting academic programs. Spitzberg’s response, according to one College’s spokesman, calls the report’s accusations and recommendations “unsubstantial and slanderous.” Robin Weeks, a member of the Executive Board of Social Sciences College and an instructor in the College, called the report “.,. a racist, politically biased, elitist report that essentially discriminates against working people in Buffalo and the nationally repressed in general.” He also termed it a political Irving Spitzberg Spitzberg’s efforts: “I feel manuever on the part of the administration “to defending the Colleges from the Planning Committee get rid of alternative educational systems.” for his own gains.

The Department The Committee, which failed to use the correct title Tor the department, erronously defined its program as one which provides teacher certification at both “graduate and undergraduate levels.” “We are a graduate department which teaches one undergraduate teacher education course,” a Social Foundations statement explains. One of the purposes of the department is to explore innovative methods for the improvement of education. Many area college and high school teachers come to this department to take advanced courses, which will enhance their work in their classrooms. *• - - Serves the community The Committee charges that many of the courses offered are “redundant with those taught elsewhere” in the academy, and recommends that the department be “phased out,” while retaining teacher certification courses in other departments. The Social Foundations department noted that a 1972 external evaluation team report explained that “the services which it currently performs at the graduate level could not possibly be maintained were the department dismantled Further, the evaluation team found that this department “provides an indispensable theoretical and critical leaven ..Social Foundations .. department points out that its “graduate enrollment has increased 20 percent “between the 1974-75 academic year and the fall of 1976, and was rated as “excellent” in 1972. The department also explains that its scholarly output has increased, citing eight faculty members who have been responsible for “27 units of publication including five books.” Social Foundations has a faculty growth rate of 17 percent, maintains the department, rather than the 35 percent figure that was cited in the Committee’s report. “Nowhere does the committee mention our employment record, the journals edited in the department, our service functions or our attempts to recruit women and minority students.” In 1974-75, the department says that “all graduates were employed.” Additionally, three important journals are edited or co-edited by members of the department; Human Education, Soviet Education and Higher Education. The significant enrollment of women and minority students confirms the department’s efforts to implement the affirmative action program. At the present time, over 25 percent of the doctoral students are minority members (Blacks, Latin surname, Oriental), and over 40 percent are women.

Page four The Spectrum Monday, 1 March 1976 . . �Biophysical Sciences Dept preparing a defense against Report’s proposal Spangler opposes all the committee’s claims. “I’ll match this department’s grad students against any in the University,” he declared. by Bob Rose Spectrum Staff Writer The Biophysical Science Department is preparing a defense against the Academic Planning Committee’s proposal to phase out its program. In its Interim Report, the committee recommended that the Biophysical Science Department “be phased out, with its activities absorbed where appropriate in more viable academic units; ,n” The report stated that the overall quality of the Biophysics program is not high, the research productivity of the core- faculty is weak, and its student quality is adequate to good. Robert Spangler, acting chairman of the Science Department, vehemently Biophysical dismissed these charges. ‘The program is run well. The University is getting a hell of a good deal,” he claimed. ‘The Academic Planning Committee is narrow in its perspective.” I' Defense of position Full potential In defense of his faculty, Spangler said “the core faculty has not realized its full potential as yet.” He added that his core faculty has had 57 research publications over the last five years. “That’s a respectable number,” he said. Spangler has been acting chairman of the Biophysics Department since 1?67. While he stated that the lack of a full time chairman has been detrimental to the department’s efficiency, he still . despite this handicap, the department has feels maintained itself quite well. I’d say the faculty is reasonably good and the program is outstanding.” The Biophysics Department has been awarding about five PhD’s a year. The Interim Report says the cost of maintaining the program is relatively high. Spangler argues that the department’s faculty is on a normal faculty salary scale and that support costs for supplies and equipment are not excessive. . , Spangler is issuing a written statement to the President’s office by March 1 to register his disapproval with the report. He plans to defend the department’s position and ask to meet with President Robert Ketter and the Academic Planning Committee. The Biophysical Science Department, founded in 1959, presently has 6V4 full time faculty members and 35 graduate students. Its adjunct faculty (outside professions who teach here part time) numbers approximately 25. This figure fluctuates slightly from year to year. The Academic Planning Committe proposed that the department be dissolved and those areas of study which are now housed in the department be placed in other, better-established departments. The committee did suggest maintaining the department’s teaching functions in the medical school here. Level of excellence The report also stated “the program has not attained the level of excellence that was expected when it was initiated.” “Regardless of the expectation of ’59 or the grandiose expectations of ’65 during fhe University’s expansion, it’s a perfectly reasonable program in the eyes of the rest of the nation.” Spangler said. He stressed that publication of the Interim Report is damaging and premature, and the morale of the department is at a low. "Put yourself in a grad Harold Cohen, Dean of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, criticized the Academic Planning Committee fort producing what he feels is a rushed, factually incorrect report. Cohen, whose school is among those recommended for complete phase-out by the Committee, claimed that “errors of fact and omission were inexcusable” in the Committee’s research and report. “The University is an ongoing, growing process that is aiming for a goal, and for this we need an Academic Planning Committee to monitor that goal and to permit and make changes when needed,” said Cohen. But he added that he feels the current report was too fragmented to be useful. student’s shoes.” he said.

It is the responsibility to put together our own menu,” he said. Cohen feels the Academic Planning Committee was needlessly rushed in preparing its report, and therefore didn't closely examine their information. He is not discouraged, however, with the original idea and purpose of the committee. Productive dialogue “The constitution of such a committee should include as much representation as possible, especially from those exploratory areas of the University. The committee members should be given sufficient funding to finish to accomplish their task, and they must be given freedom to operate,” he said. Regarding the recent retrenchment, Cohen claimed that the decision on where the cuts should be made should not come from officials in Albany, who may not be aware of the effects these cuts will have on the departments and schools here. These decisions must be made on each individual campus, he asserted. Cohen concluded, however, that the report has at least stimulated productive discussion. “Something must be done, and 1 hope that the kind of dialogue generated by the report can produce stronger, more effective procedures so ttyat we can give the President what he needs and must have to meet the current fiscal crisis,” he said.

In the report, the Committee referred to the students in that department as “good.” Shaw feels this is “a weak adjective in view of their performance on the recent Graduate Record Examination (GRE), in which 11 out of the 18 seniors in this year’s senior class in Shaw’s opinion did extremely well. on the verbal portion, They finished class in the 82nd the 97th percentile on the math, and in the 87th percentile in the advanced engineering exam. Although Shaw was more interested in giving recognition to the students who did well on the GRE’s, he also cited certain misinformation in the Committee’s report. “Report is off” “The numerical data of the report is off," claimed Shaw. While the report stated that one half of the faculty is involved in grant activity, Shaw stated that the number is actually closer to two-thirds. The report also said that “undergraduate student demand for the program declined rapidly until 1975, when a modest reversal was indicated.” According to a memorandum issued by Acting Chairman Frank Cozzarelli, growth in-the department is at the “highest rate” of all the departments in the Faculty of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and cah hardly be described as “modest.” Shaw is concerned that the findings of the Commission will have an adverse effect on students who wish to enter the department in the future. He conceded that any rebuttals written now will be taken with a grain of salt since the impact of the initial report is most important. The State Universities at Buffalo and Stony Brook are the only schools in the state system which have an engineering program, with aerospace and nuclear engineering unique to Buffalo. Throughout .the interview, Shaw professed tremendous pride in his students, and that he’d “like to see the word get around.” -Jerry Rosoff Planning Committee... —continued from page 1— “Nicholas Goodmanv of the Mathematics Departments cautioned that it would be misleading to think that only innovative program? are threatened by the Committee. Traditional academic values are also ignored, he said, accusing the Committee of selling the University out to interests that are “technocratic and commercial.” The lack of minority representation on the committee was attacked by Jim Cash of the Educational Opportunity Program (EOP), who feared that minorities could also be left off any new committee. Hie colleges, which fared poorly in the report, were defended by several of their faculty and a number of students. Lillian Robinson, professor of American Studies, said that despite protestations to the contrary, there are definite political considerations in the Committee’s report. "They are the politics of power, she added. Robinson also said that while the abdication of faculty power over academic planning, and would place real power over it in the hands of the administration.

The student “riot” involving what seems like armies of helmeted students and police is not at all like anything we experienced in America. The actions of both police and students are choreographed, almost like a ballet. After the demonstration the protest group has been known to forward regrets and gifts to the president of the school, letting him know that no personal insult was intended. One can’t begin to imagine last year’s Attica protesters sending flowers and a note of regret to President Robert Ketter. But, while students and administrators might clash over “political” issues students, faculty and non-teaching professionals support thriving Coops that offer everything from school supplies to stereos, TV, refrigerators well below regular retail prices. strike involved the state’s Taylor Law, which prohibits strikes by public employees. Judge Stiller said he sent a letter to the governot, urging that he deny the clemency request because of the effect that clemency for the Orchard Park teachers might have. He argued that a pardon here would damage the effectiveness of the law in New York State in similar cases. Thomas Rivers, the president of the Orchard Park Teachers Association, and one of the jailed teachers,, urged the rest of his fellow educators to continue supporting the union, as a show of unity. He announced that he was bringing two bags of books to jail with him, including the “heaviest” material he could find, in order to take advantage of his time in jail. Black day George L. Wessel, president of the Buffalo Council of the AFL-CIO, said that the sentencing and jailing of the eight teachers was a black day for labor in New York State. He added that he was personally sorry to see it happen, and that it hurt him. The president of the New York State United Teachers, Thomas rtobart, stated at the rally that all of the teachers in the state should work together to insure that no other teacher “has to spend time in jail.” The jailed teachers,-other than Rivers, include Douglas Johnston, John Roberts, James Wilson, Daniel Carnevale, Robert Zeller, James JPawlak and Robert Stuhr.

They first have to do with the defined letter is primarily concerned. Attached for your reference role of the President in reviewing student fee are three items: a) The lead article compulsory While I will admit that I am only an inexperienced, lowly second semester sophomore, it has been my experience here at the University that the basic hindrance to the'communication between the students and the administration, or, if you will, “establishment” is the widely read, highly “respected” student newspaper, The Spectrum. The main function of a newspaper, as of course everyone knows, is to report news in an unbiased, forthright and. simple manner. While endorsements of party candidates are based on opinion, and as such are subject to the whims of the news staff, I find it almost impossible to believe that endorsements could be written in such a biased, presumptuous, unfounded and downright stupid manner as were the endorsements in Wednesday’s The Spectrum. I say “almost” because in the almost two years that I have been here at UB, this kind pf reporting is exactly what I have witnessed and come to expect of The Spectrum Why is it wrong for a candidate to present himself in a reasonable, realistic,, clean and honest manner? What, on the basis of your interviews for endorsements, gives you the right to destroy someone because he is not “one of you,” not someone who sees the only solution to our problems as shooting President Ketter? What is wrong with realism? It is a shame that the students at this University may be deprived of one of the finest leaders they could have had because The Spectrum cannot see its own way out of the hole into which it has dug itself. I would not be surprised if your blind revolutionary politics backfire on you someday, leaving you with a situation you are totally incompetent to cope with. . i" • , x „ - " ‘ Leilani M.

Secondly, there is a concern on this campus that nothing be done by. either the President or the Board of Trustees to students from prevent establishing -any commercial venture that they feel is to their advantage. Coincidental to this is the whole question of whether or not the Board of Trustees should University at authorize the Buffalo Foundation to act as the developer for Parcel “B.’*Jn the remaining part of this letter, I will attempt to cover some of the background concerning each of these issues Possibly the place to start wou d be last April You will no doubt remember that there was again raised on this campus the whoi e q Ues tion of the legitimacy of Presidential authority (and responsibility ) in the review of the fees. use of compulsory The tri ggering expenditure request had to do with rental of buses for Albany to ask for for Attica defendants. Severa wceks earlier> , had approyal of a request for buses to go to downtown Buffalo. That earlier request had been described by its a sponsors as “educational” number of speakers were to be engated, seminars were to be held, etc. Unfortunately, none of the listed “educational activities” ever although all took place associated with the request fully understood that such activities were a necessary condition for the approval granted. ■ '■ The bus request for the Albany “Attica Support” rally was made by essentially the same group that had earlier requested the funds for the Buffalo buses. Because of “known their previous performance,” probing questions were asked abou the announced “program.” In general, the answers given were feeble, at best and in some cases, they were openly contradictory. They knew this as well as 1 did. The point that was continuously stressed, however, was that independent of whether or not they had lived up to the terms of the agreement of their earlier request, a. preedent had been established, and I could not refuse any further busing fully requests. (The Court supported the authority of the this particular President in instance, as did the special Faculty Senate -Committee at Buffalo that was set up to investigate the incident.) Next, you should be aware of the fact that there is currently pending in Federal Court, an Moore, action against Mrs. Chancellor Boyer, me and a number of others, in which it is alleged that the Trustee , . „ , — — Tuition raise Lemon yellow unfair To the Editor. We the members of the PODER organization representing Puerto Rican students of the SUNY at Buffalo, feel that the raise of tuition fees in the New York State universities is totally absurd. We as minorities are not financially capable of paying this hike. Besides being cut in BEOG and EOP funds, the state wants us to pay higher tuition fees. We strongly feel that if action is taken to raise tuition fees, the state educational facilities will no longer cater to all people; it will cater to those individuals who have the money to pay for it. Our school motto is: “Let all become all he is capable of being.” If tuition and dorm fees are raised, the motto will then be: “Let all become all he is capable of paying.” By raising tuition fees and cutting the amount of BEOG and EOP funds, the state universities can no longer be considered an equal opportunity institution. The elevation of educational standards for;; minorities will be affected negatively if these cutbacks and all proposed cutbacks are passed. We strongly feel that it is your obligation to comply with our demand to keep tuition fees at there present state, pr if possible, lower the tuition fees for minorities. Your cooperation with this matter will be appreciated by all concerned minorities. PODER Organization Affairs Committee Campus The SpccT^um Monday, 1 March 1976 Vol. 26.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. •’ Once again, the editorial board of The Spectrum has displayed a degree of journalistic ethics that is so yellow it would, make a lemon jealous. In the editors’ introduction to SA candidate endorsements and condemnations (The Spectrum, Historically, February 25, 1976), it was stated, we have been perhaps unduly influential in a role determining the outcome of the election which this year we would not relishThe latter half of that statement is not only a blatant lie, but a gross insult to the intelligence of every student on campus an insult with as much motivating contempt as a spit in the face, ’the editors of The Spectrum have virtually “fixed” the outcome of the election with as much relish and gusto as they could muster. It is a well known fact that the editorial staffs of newspapers throughout the country engage in a great deal of pre-election endorsements of candidates for public office. But they do so well in advance, to give people who may disagree with the endorsement of a candidate to give an opposing view, and to allow a candidate who |ias been editorially tom apart to publicly defend himself prior to the election day. It is unfortunate that the editors of The Spectrum have obviously set about to keep in power those candidates who join them in their little clique of established hacks, while purposely trying to cast the worst light possible on those candidates who fall outside 6f that group, and therefore probably havt many fresh new ideas to replace those currently stagnating. But it is totally the editors’ right to do so. They have their own respective opionoins, and they must be allowed to express them in print if they so wjsh. This is a basic aspect of our fundamental rights to freedom of ideas, speech and the, press. The point is, what is being discussed jiere is not a matter of rights and freedoms. It is a matter of personal and journalistic ethics. For the editors of The Spectrum, with their full knowledge of that newspaper’s power to influence the opinions of its readers, to heartfully endorse some candidates and vindictively condemn and degrade others and then print it on the day of the election is absolutely “ .. . — - disgraceful. - \ • • Will those students who vote see this letter before they cast their ballots? Of course not. Will those candidates who werq, blackballed be able to defend themselves and regain votes lost s\s a result of the opinions voiced by less than a dozen self-styled journalistic musketeers (or should I say stooges)? Again, the obvious answer is no. The “bigwigs” of The Spectrum staff wanted to give their buddies an undue advantage in the elections, and that is exactly what they did. Members of The Spectrum sfaff, allow me to congratulate you on a mission successfully completed. Eric Steckerl Page eight The Spectrum Monday, 1 March 1976 . . - — regulations governing expenditure is an of compulsory fees infringement of basic constitutional rights. This action was brought by officers of SASU, officers of the Student by and Association at Buffalo, presidents of several other student associations. Judge Elfvin, the presiding Judge, heard the case in Buffalo in early September, but thus far has not issued a ruling. (The students simultaneously asked for a temporary injunction, but that was denied.) Now to the second general point at issue. The basic thrust of Mr. Jackalone’s position, and for that matter many of the students at Buffalo, is that students should not their be hampered in development of “student services” by action of the President, by of the Board of Trustees, l»y the fiscal realities of Parcel “B,” or what-have-you. It is their position that student services �not should be as to the right of existence on campus and the ability to be operated and managed by students.” Now to specifics; Pint, consider the Record Coop in the Student Union on the Main Street Campus at Buffalo. About four years ago, the then-officers of the Student Association requested that they be allowed to physically establish a student Record Coop in space in the Student Union, The discussion concerning this possibility was lengthy and at times heated. Finally, it was decided that for a one-year trial period approval would be granted, However, very specific controls in writing. For were specified example, the entity would report to Student directly the Association, which, in turn, would be accountable for its operation; only students would be allowed to purchase records; there would be no advertising; the level of operation would be small; and a full fiscal accounting of the operation would be made at periodic intervals. At the end of that first year, all that could be asid was that probably the level of operation was small. (Actually, they kept no records so it was impossible to say how much actually was sold.) The Student Association then asked if they could continue the operation for they were sure another year that they could get the student operators to be more responsible and responsive. This was allowed, At the end of that year, the dollar volume of business was known, but little else. It is my understanding that last year the Record Coop did a gross business of slightly less than $200,000. Their projection for this year was for something between $250,000 $300,000; but and more i important than this, they refused to prvide the Student Association or the University officers with any detailed financial accounting, even . . questioned ... — — such, reports w«re repeatedly requested (demanded), Now go back to the beginning, Shortly after the Record Coop was allowed to open, I received a letter of protest from “Cavages,” a record store that is located acrcJss the street from the Main Street Campus of the University. A meeting was arranged and Mr. Cavage was given the details of the agreement with the Student Association. While he did not like it, Mr. Cavage agreed to wait and see how things developed. This fall Mr. Cavage again contacted me, indicating that the level of business had gotten totally out of hand, that open advertising in the student newspaper had occurred, and that anyone could walk in off the street and purchase records, though: • thereafter the front the University would provide windows of his store were broken, suitable space in either the (I am not saying that students Health Service area or in the windows, only that it School of Pharmacy; the students, occurred just after we announced through Sub Board I (with compulsory fee monies), would the closing of the Coop.)

The request for a Campus responsible, I have been having Pharmacy also came up about two meetings with officers from the years ago. The “School of various student associations.

Since the Record Coop on the campus paid no taxes, rent, utilities, upkeep, etc., (in fact, it did not even pay wages to its employees>, Cavages felt that, in effect, he was paying taxes to bis competitor. I asked Mr. Doty, my Vice President for Finance and Management, to investigaty the complaint and determine whether or not it was true. It was! The Coop had an inventory of over 40,000 records, was doing a business on an annual rate in excess of $250,000, was not keeping any significant financial records, advertised in the student paper, refused to give any reports'" to the Student Association, and was selling to almost anyone. Based on this information, the Coop was told that it would have to close. As you might imagine, a lot of heat resulted. Threats were made and various groups tried to organize “marches” of protest and “pressure.” Word got around that Mr. Cavage had complained,, and - — — - Western New York. As you know, the University at Buffalo Foundation was created as one of the conditions of merger. Its primal purpose is fund raising. In addition, it was to provide other general types of and assistance to the help but between the various student groups. If all of the above is true, then the statement of Frank Jackalone to Mrs. Moore that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing, open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry.” The answer to this lies primarily in the fact that the student newspaper is not “close” to either the responsible student officers (as a group) or to the administration of the University. Much of what is going on is either not reported or they choose not to print the whole story. It’s also now time for student elections; and, if past experience is any indicator, things will probably get worse rather than better insofar as accuracy of reporting is concerned. Another reason for Frank’s why .. University. one that comes loud and clear in his letter and that is now frequently and openly stated on this campus is that: “Now that we have a SASU representative on the Board of Trustees, and for all intents and purposes the President does not, we can get whatever we want position through — — through that Body.” The arguments 'advanced by Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum for membership on the Board of University at Buffalo the Foundation are quite similar: Since the clientele of interest is the University community (which is primarily students), since studhets have limited funds, and since (like FSA operations) the *xi$ts on State property, Parcelprofits must kept to then be an aboslute minimum and the store operators must respond to the desires of the Student Body. As a causal line of reasoning, nothing could be further from reality. While the parcel is within “State forever be land” and Will “owned” by the University, full taxes, assessments, fees, etc. must ' be paid to the Town of Amherst just as if it were located anywhere else in the Town. More than that: The “Foundation,” in addition to building the desired spaces, will have to pay the State of New York for the basic development costs of the land on which the buildings will sit. Moreover, it will be necessary that architecture for the project meet the very rigid (and costly architectural to comply with) vocabulary of the rest of x- the campus. Most important; The project must be the State is not fiscally sound putting into it one cent. This means that- money must be — borrowed from local banks. These institutions require that first class tenants be contracted with, that these tenants have reasonably long leases, and that they be provided with certain assurances so that the success of me project can be reasonably predicted. (I also should note- that one of the constraints specified by both State University and by the Town of Amherst is that the store operators will be prohibited from actively seeking “outside” buyers of their goods and services.) I am aware of the fact that Mr. Roblin, Chairman of the Board of Trustees of the University at Buffalo Foundation, has written you a letter detailing the history of the project (Parcel “B”)-" He also reaffirmed in his letter the willingness of the UB/F to act as the developer. It would be inappropriate for me to add anything to that communication. I do feel, however, that it is both proper and desirable for me generally to remark more concerning the developing role of the UB/F at Buffalo, and the potential that exists because of the good will and hard work of that group of dedicated citizens of The merger of the University Buffalo into the State University of New York was not favorably received by all alumni; and for the fust one-half dozen or so years thereafter, fund raising at SUNYAB was anything but spectacular. Just as things looked like they might get underway, the student riots of the late 60’s occurred. You know what that did. When I assumed office in June of 1970, the fund raising of the Foundation ability (measured in actual obtained dollars) was close to zero, even though a considerable amount had been spent in consulting fees in an effort to see just where the potential existed. Over the past six years there has been built, slowly and steadily, a base of private giving that shows promise of becoming truly significant. All categories of giving are now increasing at a rate of about 20 percent yearly, and it won’t be too long before we should see real enrichment from those activities. (Ypu probably read in one of our recent releases that we just successfully completed a special purpose $200,000 fund raising effort for highly sophisticated equipment for the School of Dentistry program at Childrens Hospital.) The Foundation also is starting to provide that “other” assistance referred to above. The Parcel “B” development is one example of this. (Here the Foundation will have to go out-on-the-limb and guarantee the required funds.) The Foundation also has been negotiating for two separate housing projects for married students one near the Main Street Campus, the other across the road from the Amherst site. Should these eventuate, we would time for. the first reasonable-rent, married student housing. The lack of this in the past has influenced our ability to attract the best students. of question The student membership on the Board of the of , — UB/F Corporation was extensively discussed, and Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum know this. In short, it was the unanimous conclusion of the members of thp Board considering (after several alternatives) that this was not the way for interested groups to provide input into decision-making concerning those types of activities. Rather, an advisory committee should be consisting formed of representatives of all user groups. I, personally, am strongly in with agreement the Board’s ' - position. In closing what is obviously too long a letter, 1 will state to you the same concern that 1 expressed to Jim Kelly the other day. I am seriously concerned as to how long I can keep the interest of the members of the Foundation on the Parcel 4,B” project. They are all busy executives that allot their times and efforts on the bases of probable success. I sense that they are quite frustrated with the bureaucratic workings of the State they have been trying to get this project off the ground for more than a year. Continued delays cannot but have an their attitude influence on towards the whole Foundation effort. — Very truly yours, Robert L.

Shakespeare has a saying which I believe to be apropos in describing the present political scene at SUNY at Buffalo. “What cracker is this same that deafs'our ears with this abundance of superfluous breath.” (King John Act II, Scene I). That cracker is none other than the political parties and their attendant court jesters and assholes-in-waiting responsible for the recent deluge of empty political rhetoric, the verbal excretment of politically incompetent self-seekers. What are these claims to fame, the vacuous utterances which they gibber? How come our ears are deafened by their “superfluous breath?” Must we be -anesthetized and lulled by the soposific effects of that which is spewed from their orifices?

On top of that, the Bulls have Although Buffalo beat Geneseo not beaten the Bengals in nine 102-92 in basketball action at year. Three years ago, the Bulls Clark Hall Saturday night, the were hoping for a bid to the final score wasn’t indicative of the National Invitation Tournament way the-game was played. The (N.I.T.) while, the Bengals were overwhelmed ending one of their worst years. simply Bulls Geneseo. They led by as much as Buffalo State upset Buffalo to kill twenty-four points before the whatever slim N.I.T. chances the Knights came back in the final Bulls had. Two years ago, the few minutes against the Bulls’ game went into double overtime reserves. Buffalo is now 10—15 before Buffalo State squeaked out the win, and last year the Bengals for the year. most of the won a hotly contested ballgame Doing overwhelming for Buffalo was by six points. Nevertheless, Richardson was senior co-captain Otis Horne. Horne, playing in his final home viewing it as just another game. by Paige Miller ' pumped in 30 points, dished off for a career high of ten assists, and pulled down 12 rebounds. Buffalo coach Leo Richardson, who usually starts all of the squad’s seniors in the last home game, said that Home deserved to start anyway, ahead of Ron McGraw. “In practice, he’s been working hard, much more so than Ron McGraw,” Richardson rtbted: Horne stated that since it was his last home game, he was ready to play. Although it wasn’t until ten minutes had gone by that he scored his first two points on two free-throws, he had picked up five of his assists by then, all to guard Larry Jones. “I was just hitting the open man,” was Horne’s understatement. With eighteen points in the second half, Horne closed in on the one thousand career point mark. He needs fourteen points in the Bulls’ last remaining game to become the fifth player in history to score that many points for Buffalo. Towards the end of the game, Richardson jumped off the bench and shouted, “Give the ball to Otie.” Richardson acknowledged that he knew Horne was closing in on 1000 points, but also said, “He had the hot hand, that’s why I wanted him to shoot.” “All we want to do is win,” he said. “We’re not concerned with the Big Four or a nine-year winning streak.” Richardson is not expecting a the affair like high-scoring Gencseo game. “I look for them to play conservatively,” he said. Home felt that Buffalo should be able to beat State, “if we come to play,” referring to the fact that several times this year Buffalo has not been mentally ready for games. Lastly, the Bengals were only able to defeat Geneseo by five points, while Buffalo’s win over the Knights was much stronger than the ten point margin suggests. everybody played well according to Thomas. The passing but and fast breaks worked almost perfectly, as Buffalo lead at the half by a score of 32—25. Trapper and Frazier poured in 12 straight points in the beginning of the second half before Bulls’ forward Pam Tellocfe, who had replaced Nan Harvey, got hot and scored six more points. Frazier continued to dazzle the audience with her long outside shots and fast break baskets to give her a total of 18 points in the game. Trapper ended up with 19 and Tellock with 10. The final score was 66—50. Revenge! Thomas was very pleased with her team’s performance. “This was the best game they’ve played all season,” she declared. The were especially happy about the victory in view of the fact that they had been invited to the New York State Division H Championships instead of Canisius, who had beaten Buffalo by 27 points earlier in the season. “We had to prove that the invitation wasn’t a gift,” Harvey invited to the New York State Division II Championships instead of Canisius, who had beaten Buffalo by 27 points earlier in the season. “We had to prove that the invitation wasn’t a gift,” Harvey said. The game against Buffalo State Saturday night was anticlimatic in comparison. The outcome was players in doubt as Buffalo completely dominated the play. The Bulls’ offense was again superb, but the defense didn’t get much of a chance to prove itself as Buffalo seemed content to work for shots on the outside without much driving. Nan Harvey made up for her poor performance the night before with a series of high arcing shots from the corner. “1 was relaxed and more confident,” she explained. “I said, This is my. shot, and it’s going in.’ Tellock came off the bench again, to replace Frazier, and continued her excellent relief work. Clyde O’Malley and Trapper had their usual impressive defensive statistics, with six steals for the former and 16 rebounds and 8 blocks for the latter. Three players ended up in double figures. Trapper with 20, Harvey with 18, and Tellock with 12. The team now has a two week the State layoff before Tournament begins March 11 at Hartwick. Thomas thinks the layoff will help more than hurt the team. She mentioned that some of the players have been sick never ” Sandy recently (Barb Fislar, Eynon, Marilyn Dellwardt) and added, “The break will give them a chance to rest, so they can come back physically well.” The victory in the Big Four should also help. “Now that they know they can put together back-to-back wins it should give them some more confidence,” she concluded. game, It Sounds Incredible ‘ A sea of rebounds Richardson was pleased with the entire team’s performance. The Bulls front line of Horne, Sam Robinson and Sam Pellom combined for 52 rebounds, more than the entire Geneseo team. But that’s not that much of a surprise since Buffalo is third in the nation in average rebounding margin. The Bulls’ guard, Jones, senior Domzalski and reserve Donald Scott, each contributed scoreing figure double Jones’ twenty performances. points was particularly impressive since he played only sixteen minutes. Domzalski had nine assists, while Scott tied Horne for game honors with four steals. The Bulls’ one game remaining, against cross-town rival Buffalo State on Wednesday night, will decide the Big Four basketball championship.

Page eleven �irs Commentary Varsity teams suffer cuts by David J. Rubin Sports Editor Chess team wins first match of the season 1 1 C A very disconcerting change of opinion has occurred within Student Association (SA) and the Athletic Department. The Athletic Department Budget request for 1976-77 which was passed by the Finance Committee last week calls for the elimination of track, cross country and fencing as varsity sports. The Finance Committee vote was 4-1-1 to eliminate the three sports, and to reallocate the funds to men’s intercollegiate athletics. This decision shows a lack_pf understanding on the part of the members of the Finance Committee and of the Athletic Department budget planners. explained that continuation of the three sports would have meant hiring new coaches at too great an expense. Track coach Jim McDonough left Buffalo for Ohio State earlier this year, and Sidney Schwartz and Jim Marchant, the past two fencing coaches, have not been full-time faculty members. Other alternatives? But Robert Cohen, the lone dissenter on the Finance Committee and former cross-country runner, could not understand the committee’s vote. “I don’t see why we should pay more for fewer teams,” he said, adding that he believes possible alternatives were not investigated. It is truly hard to believe that after last year’s desperate fight by Clark Hall to save every team, the same people are now complacent enough to let three teams fall by the wayside. I have always believed that the education and experience aspects of intercollegiate sports are of utmost importance in an intercollegiate athletics program, especially when finances are as tight as they have been at Buffalo in recent years.

The club received only $50 from the Student Association (SA) for the spring semester, much to the dismay of Lamensdorf. He claims that the chess boards 1 and pieces are deficient in quality and that the club’s meager budget prevents it from providing refreshments at practice and transportation to and from tournaments. Yet, he cites lack of participation as the greatest problem facing the club. Although its roster contains 37 names, only about 15 or 20 of them attend each practice. The team is presently planning a trek to Syracuse, intending to stop over for matches with colleges such as Geneseo and Rochester. It also trying to coordinate a contest with theTonawanda Chess Club. i The Dig event on its calendar, however, is a match which is to take $lace on the 21st of March against a group of Attica Prison inmates. Organized by Rich Horowitz, it promises to be a rewarding experience for both the inmates and team members. Also encouraging is the fact that SA has agreed to supply an additional $50 for the trip. Before Syracuse and Attica, though, the team is arranging a more convenient match with Buffalo State. The club meets on Thursdays from 8-11 p.m. in Room 244 Norton Hall and all are welcome. ; Children’s Optical isn't just kid stuff Emergency repair service 'on Wire & Plastic frames Contact Lens fitting & cleaning Complete selection ofadult frames.

SUNY told us to reduce that request to 12-13 percent and it didn’t even appear on the Governor’s Budget,” he claimed. Ketter said this has been a major priority of the Council for the three years, but has past repeatedly been eliminated from the budget. In a rare public appearance Robert Wednesday, President Ketter said his role as president is restricted by state bureaucracy and law. Speaking before over 100 people at a forum on graduate education in the Conference Theater, Ketter explained there is little he can do to prevent further cutbacks in the SUNY budget. ‘The Board of Trustees is the University; they define who does Repeats position what at what level, and the Addressing himself to the president is responsible for what demands of the Graduate Student happens at his campus,” Ketter Employees Union (GSEU), Ketter said. He termed the Trustees a repeated his position that he “rigorous autocracy,” and cannot recognize the organization identified his role as a manager. until it has been recognized by the “SUNY is a managed Public Employees Relations Board institution,” and is not (PERB). “1 do not employ you,” immediately accountable to the Ketter told the grad students faculty and students at individual emphatically. campuses, he said. The president’s He said the salary increase, job is to try to keep things going, views restoration of lines and insurance despite conflicting presented by various demanded by the GSEU was brought before Albany officials constituencies, Ketter added. He said he has been forced to cut and denied. The request for more than 100 lines again and accident and liability insurance that restoration would be virtually for Teaching and Graduate Assistants, he noted, were impossible. considered the blame for “benefits” and could Ketter placed cuts in aid to graduate students on not be provided by SUNY. According to Ketter, sentiment in Albany favors tuition assistance for students in private institutions rather than support for public schools. Citing Lieutenant Governor Mary Ann Krupsak as a supporter of that policy, he recounted the findings of the Commission on Educational Institutions in Financial Distress, chaired by former Harvard President Nathan Pussey. Ketter himself served on that Commission which called for increased aid to private schools while finding public institutions in sound financial conditions. Media campaign who attached a opinion to the Commission’s report, plans to launch a media campaign this week calling for increased support of public higher education. “This is a tactical decision, and I will make appropriate noises for the minds of legislators in Albany,” he said. He will be appearing on several talk shows on local radio stations, and will make other public appearances. Ketter, - dissenting Questioned about the recently report from' the released Academic "Planning Committee, Ketter replied, “No university can venture and that it grew much have equal strength in all areas. I larger than anticipated. Ketter also said he has and will do not expect any substantial increase in funding, so we must continue to support a health care restrictively allow growth to occur service for students on this in those areas of most strength.” campus, and blamed' SUNY He emphasized that this was an Chancellor Ernest Boyer for any interim report, and it is by no attempts to reduce it. “He finals its (Boyer) wanted to reduce health means in recommendations. care spending to approximately Ketter repeated his position $5 per student, better than an 80 towards student services, saying percent reduction from the $27 he will defend them only if an currently spent,” Ketter observed. Most observers said Ketter educational basis for their existence is shown. He said the revealed little new or constructive problem with the Record Coop information. “Ketter was was that it did not submit reports diplomatic and really didn’t say 4 and financial records, as called for anything at all,” one listener in his initial approval of the noted. • Ketter asks Trustees to vote on Parcel JB contract by Richard Kerman pay full taxes to the Town of Amherst, pay for development of the land and meet the costly architectural style of the campus. He added that one of the constraints specified by both the State University and the Town of Amherst is that store operators be prohibited from actively seeking “outside” Managing Editor President Robert Ketter indicated to members of the State University Board of Trustees that he does not support student representation on the Board of Directors of the UBF Corporation which is overseeing commerical development of the Amherst Campus. In a letter to Trustees Manly Fleischmann and William Hassett, D. urging the Trustees not to delay work on the Parcel B project any longer, Ketter also defends his questioning of services funded with mandatory student fees against criticism that has been voiced on this campus in recent weeks. Ketter directed his response mainly to a proposal sent to Mrs. Maurice Moore, chairman of the SUNY Trustees, by former Student Association President Frank Jackalone, requesting them to provide at least one third student membership on the UBF Corporation Board of Directors and describing in part the Ketter administration’s questioning of student services here. KetteT said arguments advanced by Jackalone and The Spectrum for student membership both incorrectly reason that the “clientele of interest” in the University is primarily students, “students have limited funds” and (like FSA operations) since “the Parcel exists on State property, then profits must be kept to an absolute minimum and the store operators must respond to the desires of the Student x Body.” Nothing could be further from reality,” Ketter .. wrote State land Ketter said the prinicipal reason for denying student membership is that the project must fiscally sound. This means that money must be borrowed from local banks, who require that “first class” tenants be contracted for reasonably long periods of time and that certain assurances of the project’s success be provided. Although the 'Parcel is on “State land” and is owned by the University, Ketter said the UBF Corporation must customers. Ketter noted that the question of student membership on th" Board was “extensively discussed, and Mr. Jackalone and The Spectrum know this.” After considering several alternatives, Ketter said the members of the Board decided this (student membership) was not the way for interested groups to provide input into decision making on those types of activities, and that a representative advisory board should be formed instead. “I, personally, am strongly in agreement with the Board’s position.” „ Sympathy The SUNY Trustees have in previous years been sympathetic to increased student representation on Faculty Student Associations (FSA), which preside over food service, bookstore, and other operations on state campuses. Last year, the Trustees welcomed a non-voting student to the SUNY Board for the first time. In his letter to the Chairman of the Board, Jackalone said that Ketter had made a complete reversal of what was formerly a favorable position toward student services. “The net effect is that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry,” he wrote. Ketter said the reason for this open hostility is innacurate reporting in The Spectrum. “Much of what is going on is either not reported or they choose not to print the whole story. It’s also now time for student elections; and ... things will probably get worse rather than better insofar as accuracy of reporting is concerned.” Ketter did not elaborate further. Ketter said in each instance he has questioned a j service, students have claimed they were not bound by decisions made by their predecessors. Even when that claim is not openly made, he wrote, the problem still exists because by the time a project gets off the ground it is not unusual for those who originally entered into an agreement to have left the University. “Another reason for Frank’s position,” Ketter noted, “one that comes through loud and clear in his letter and that is now frequently and openly stated on this campus, is that: ‘Now that we have a SASU representative on the Board of Trustees, and for all intents and purposes the President does not, we can get whatever we want through that Body.’ In his letter, Ketter gives a chronology of the separate student services that he has questioned: buses to an Attica defendant support rally in Albany last spring, the SA Record Coop, and the Sub Board Pharmacy. ” ‘As we see fit’ Kettcr said all those who contacted SUNY officials in Albany for redress against the temporary closing of the Record Coop were almost all answered in the same way: “Unless it can be clearly justified within an educational context, such a Coop is not legitimate. On this campus, however, the cry still exists: ‘The Student Union is our space. We will use it as we see fit.’ This is again being coupled with ‘compulsory fees are our money, no one can tell us how/or for what purpose/we can spend them.’ ” Ketter explained that he has been meeting with officers of the various student associations, Sub Board, members of the Office of Student Affairs, and their attorneys as part of an effort to correct the situation. He reported that a subcommittee of the larger group, composed of students and administrators, are currently developing a draft position paper on /‘Fiscal Accountability and Reporting.” He expected that other subcommittees would evolve as work proceeded. The complete text of Ketter’s letter will appear in Monday's issue of The Spectrum. �Symptoms of flu are sweeping the campus The flu is about the one thing everyone around here has in common these days. Luther Musselman, acting director of the University Health Service, explained that a Type A influenza virus has been isolated in the University laboratories. Symptoms of Type A influenza indude sore throat, headaches, high fever and occasionally, nausea. Because the virus has an incubation period of one or two days, people that have it may not even be aware of it. While it is highly contagious, the primary source of infection seems to be the classrooms, Musselman said. The incidence of influenza has not reached epidemic proportions, although the number of in-patients is double the average for this time of year. However, the number of students infected has started to level off, said Musselman. f ayt Sunday night extra beds were needed in the infirmary to handle additional patients. Due to cutbacks, maintenance men were unavailable for moving the beds down from the fourth floor. Luckily, the following Monday, student volunteers were found to move the beds. “Thanks to the student volunteers, we didn’t have to turn anybody away,*’ Musselman said. Two health service doctors were also victims of the sickness, due to increased working hours and extensive contact with so many influenza sufferers. Both elected to recuperate at home rather than in the infirmary, however. Spring it still officially a month away, but at far at mott people are concerned, there's nothing wrong with it starting early. Temperatures this week soared as hi0i as 60 degrees which is rather remarkable considering just three weeks ago, the mercury hit 11 below. A veritable heat wave in the month of February.

Circulation average: 15,000 by Diane Gitlin Spectrum Staff Writer The plan for Equal Employment Opportunity was put into effect at this University on March 10, 1975. Since then. Affirmative Action officers believe a “sincere effort” has been made to insure equal opportunities in the recruitment and hiring of employees here. Federal guidelines define an affirmative action program as a set of specific procedures used to achieve the goal of equal employment opportunity. However, the objectives of the affirmative action program on this campus extend beyond employment encompassing admissions, housing, practices, work/study programs and other aspects of campus and community life as well. Responsible for bringing the University into full compliance with equal opportunity policies, the Office of Affirmative Action and Human Resources activated in Development (AA/HRD) was September, 1975 in accordance with federal regulations. That office, which is a consolidation of Minority Faculty Recruitment and Promotions, Women’s Recruitment and Promotions, Office of Equal Opportunity, and Minority Student Affairs, is headed by Jesse Nash. UAR Complying with policies According to Nash, “all of the vice presidents at this University are responsible for affirmative action programs in their own areas.” However AA/HRD assists departments and programs in complying with the proper anti-discriminatory policies. Nash indicated that affirmative action alone cannot eliminate discrimination but it will require a change in people’s attitudes. He said even if everyone is given an equal chance for employmapt based solely on qualifications, society does not give certain groups the same opportunity to acquire the education and training needed to qualify. As part of its plan to implement affirmative action, AA/HRD will undertake a work force analysis in the near future to determine whether women and minorities are underutilized in specific jobs at"this University. The analysis is required by federal regulations once a year and the results should be available in approximately one month. Ger uate Equal opportunity employer Present attempts being made to publicize the affirmative action policy include incorporating it into the University’s mission statement and job description, preparing i manual on affirmative action for general distribution and a brochure on affirmative action research for the administration. All want ads state that l&is University is an equal opportunity employer and all job applicants and potential employees are informed of this policy. Open communication with Buffalo community Page two The Spectrum Friday, 27 February 1976 . . enables AA/HRD to provide University search committees with prospective candidates for a particular position and information on methods that can be used to recruit women and minorities. Affirmative action search procedures may include advertisements through media most likely to reach the desired minority and women audiences, and attempts to secure rosters of qualified minority and women candidates from organizations within a discipline or professional field. In the case of a faculty vacancy, the Authorization to Recruit (ATR) is filled out by the appropriate departmental chairman. The ATR states the qualifications required for the vacant position and the specific affirmative action search procedures that will be used to identify and recruit candidates. The ATR must be approved by the Provost or Health Science Dean and then the appropriate vice president before faaulty recruiting groups fnay begin. Search procedures Once the search committee for a new faculty member has identified the candidates, the appropriate departmental chairman fills out the Search Procedure Report (SPR) and submits it to the appropriate Provost or Health Science Dean for approval. If the SPR isn’t approved, search procedures may have to be started again. If approved, both the ATR and SPR are submitted for review to the President’s Panel for the Review of Search Procedures. The SPR must not only include data on all of the job applicants, but also documentation of the affirmative action search procedures that were followed. For example, copies of each advertisement published, written requests for assistance and their responses, and brief notes of'telephone conversations and personal contacts must be included. Within 72 hours, the Panel’s recommendation of approval or disapproval of the faculty hiring and the SPR are transmitted to the Vice President of Academic Affairs or Health Sciences for their final decision. “We have identified as one of our objectives to make an effort to educate,” stated Sara Cicarelli, Co-Chairperson of the President’s Panel for the Review of Search Procedures. The Panel provides the search committee with information on groups to contact for candidate referrels. Should the search committee fail to indicate in want ads that this University is an equal opportunity employer, the Panel will let it by the first time and inform the committee that it is required by law to do so. The President’s Panel is composed of members from the faculty and non-teaching professionals.

Social Sciences Provost. Donald Godlberg, an attorney retained by Social Work students to defend their position, claimed that the students had a clear case of Promissory Hsloppel, since they had entered the school with the understanding that the program was "pending accreditation.” The students at the meeting presented evidence proving that the University knew of the decision not to seek accreditation months before the public was informed. __ Drawn-out lawsuit The lawsuit against the University would have been long and drawn-out, said Butler, and “by th6 time the case would have been closed, it would have been too late to request a visit by the accreditation team.” Butler also speculated that the Social Work officials were aware of the students’ evidence for some time, but “they liever realized the students would most likely win after a judge who is unfamiliar with the University administration and procedures reviewed the ease." Upper division Social Work students began their fight for accreditation last November, despite the fact that the program is scheduled to be eliminated in June, 1977. Merle had formerly contended that since the program was going to be phased out. it would have a hard time gaining accreditation anyway. The students argued, however, that the departments’ accreditation is essential to their future, especially in terms of gaining admission to graduate school and professional careers, and that the University should, therefore, at least try. With Goldberg present at the meeting, the students finally convinced Merle to change his mind. Ketter also agreed, and since that lime, a formal request to the Council on Social Work Education for accreditation evaluation has been processed. Optimism While _ Merle was unavailable for comment, undergraduate coordinator Gerald Miller expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the meeting. “The decision will boost the morale of the students tremendously." he said, adding that he is optimistic about the results ol the accreditation evaluation. Butler would not speculate on the outcome of the evaluation, but he did not feel that the department’s upcoming elimination would significantly harm its chances for accreditation. I CB| I JTI S.A. Speakers | Bureau j MEETING | | Today (Friday) j l at 4:00 pm 205 Norton Union J i The devastating earthquake in Guatemala, killing thousands of people and leaving many others homeless, has moved PODER, the Puerto Rican Student Organization to organize a clothing drive on campus. Nayda Benitez, treasurer of PODER, arranged the drive in order to help improve the situation that is now prevalent in Guatemala. Members of PODER are approaching students on campus and others in the Buffalo community, appealing for donations of clothing. They are also soliciting contributions, which will go towards the shipping costs of the goods. Similar relief efforts are going on all over this country. The situation is slowly improving Relief has been pouring in from Nicaragua, the United States, Canada, many South American countries, and the Soviet Union, among others. � The earthquake occufted on February 4, taking the lives of over 20,000 people, wounding 66,000 and leaving over one million homeless. The consequences of the quake were disastrous, levelling homes and buildings and causing landslides and huge cracks in the ground. Catastrophe The earthquake spread across 2000 miles of the country, from Southern Mexico down to Honduras and El Salvador. The cities and towns of Joyabaj, Chimaltenango, Zaragosa, Patzicia, Comalapa, and Elprogreso were nearly totally destroyed, with property losses ranging from 75 to 98 percent. The quake severed many of the transportation routes, thus causing scarcity of food and water. Road and landing conditions also made it difficult to bring in the emergency medical supplies. Portable hospitals were flown in from the United Tec pan, States, staffed with doctors and desperately needed vaccines to prevent the spread of typhoid. Without these immunizations, officials fear there would have been wide outbreaks of epidemics in the aftermath of the earthquake. The dead were buried at once in mass graves. The catastrophe did not end with the first earthquake, for 800 tremors of varying degrees were additionally reported. Temporary camps were set up for some of the homeless, while others put up their own make-shift tents. Many were forced to live in the streets, amidst the rubble of the city. In addition to the clothing drive, there will be a carnival held in the Fillmore Room on February 27 to raise funds for Guatemala. The carnival will provide dancing music and refreshments for a charge of $2.00 per student and $3.00 for others. It is sponsored by the Italian Club, UUAB, PODER and the Brazilian Club, with all proceeds going towards Guatemala. Trustees okay UBF contract The SUNY Board of Trustees approved a 62 page ground contract Wednesday that authorizes the UB Foundation. Incorporated, to begin development of commerical enterprises on the Amherst Campus. The contract leases the l3!4 acre state-owned Parcel B site to the UB Foundation for an initial term of 40 years with two 10 year options to renew. Planned development for the area includes 70.000 square feet of stores, including a 150 room hotel, and 20,000 square feet of office space. The projected completion date for Parcel B is September, 1977. Bob Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the one non-voting student member of the Board of Trustees, said he moved “non-consideration” of the resolution until students were ensured sufficient on the UB Foundation representation “sub-corporation” that is handling Parcel B development. His motion, which was seconded by one Board member, was voted down and the resolution passed The Trustees were willing to delay action on the lease three weeks ago at the request of Kirkpatrick to allow the Student Association (SA) here more time to negotiate with the Foundation. However, Kirkpatrick said pressure by businessmen from the Buffalo area, in addition to a 10 page letter sent to Board members, Manly Fleishmann and William D. Hassett, Jr., by President Robert Ketter (see story on page 1), induced the Trustees to make their decision. The contract must now receive final approval from SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer before it becomes effective. Boyer was absent from the Trustees meeting Wednesday, the first time he has missed a meeting since he became Chancellor, due to a bout with monomucleosis. Kirkpatrick says students still have one more chance to secure seats on the DBF Corporation Board of Directors by appealing to the Chancellor before he signs the contract.

While placing his hopes in a “no confidence” vote on the Faculty Senate, Michael Fishman also attacked that policy-making body. He indicated that prior to the campus turmoil of the late 60’s and early 70’s, the Faculty Senate was more akin to a “New England town meeting.” In the aftermath of student unrest and administration insecurity, it has been transformed into an elitist, closed-door body, composed mostly of tenured faculty and high level administrators, he remarked. Abbey Tiger, Women’s Studies College (WSC) representative condemned University patronizing of vested business interests, saying that the proper orientation of this institution should be “towards addressing student interests.” She asserted that “free access” is the catchword for student freedom. - Political decisions Barney Oursler indicated that the Academic Planning Committee’s use of the phrase “Maintain at the present level” when referring to the funding level of various departments, means “absolutely nothing.” The administration’s standpoint towards the Philosophy Department is a case in fact, he said. Although the planning committee recommends that Philosophy be “maintained at its present level,” many junior and possibly as many as six tenured faculty may be fired. The Philosophy Department has low priority in the administrations’ eyes, he said. Oursler maintained that the department college eliminations, both blatant and subtle, are political in nature. “They are not qualitative dollars and cents decisions.” Similar political decisions can be discerned in the higher realms of the 1977 New pockets. York State budget where human services are slated Oursler asserted that GSEU spokesman Barney for the steepest cuts, he added. undergraduates receive the brunt of administration Industry, he asserted, is responsible for most of and student services abuse in terms of cutbacks in emphasis upon faculty publishing rather than today’s fiscal problems, “yet they are the sector that teaching excellence.

For a multi-color glimpse of Eternity, that most awesome and mystic of Beings, is but one thin copper quarter away in issue 13, “April 1976, of Dr. Strange: Master of the Mystic Arts. If Eternity is too heavy for you, perhaps yob would prefer a talking duck, Howard’s the name, who has grappled with Gorko, the Man-Frog, vanquished a vampire cow, trounced a turnip from another galaxie, and dreams of being Killmallard. But then, if you don’t know who Killraven is, you’ll have no idea of the significance of Killmallard. You see, after H.G. Wells’s martians invaded H.G. Wells’s earth, and were defeated by the common cold, they developed an antidote, came back, and proceeded to hunt down the remaining earthlings. From their midst, a leader arose. His name was Killraven, and a mighty warrior was he. continuing and The complete multi-colored saga of this stalwart defender of human dignity is to be found, again at the mere price of one thin quarter (though it’s going up by a nickel soon, so buy now), in Amazing Adventures, featuring Killmven. Obviously enough, Howard the Duck is a Killraven fan, and so dreams of being Killmallard. You dig? Wonderful! World If not, that can only be because you, you poor benighted, child of an unwashed camel driver, must be unaware of the wonder-full world of MAR VEL COMICS. Only Marvel would pluck a duck from another universe, stuff his beak full of stogies and wise-cracks about talking naked apes, plant him in lovely Cleveland by the slimey shores of the nighty Cuyahoga River, and then use him as a vehicle for satirizing Marvel Comics. trapped in a world he never Howard made! is presently (issue 3, May 1976) Shang-Op, Master of Quak Fu. Under the guidance of Master C’Haai. Howard became a master in a mere three hours and seventeen minutes and went out to rescue the beautiful Beverly from Count Macho a martial arts master given to beating up on little kids. As he does this Howard is dressed in red silk pajamas, just like those which belong to Shang-Chi, Master ofKung Fu, who spends much of his time fighting Fu Manchu. If all this fantasy bothers you, check out the current issue of Master of Kung Fu (May ’76) where you will find a character who looks like Marlon Brando and another — — who looks like Sean Connery; If that’s still too fantastic, then take a look at Super-Villain Team-Up for June ’76. Here you’ll see Henry Kissinger conclude a secret deal with Dr. Doom, one of the archvillaina of Marveldom whose sole desire is to rule the world. Irradiated freaks You see, the world of Marvel Comics is indeed large and its inhabitants are various. Spider-Man, numero uno in the line, was plain old Peter Parker before he was accidentally bitten by a spider which had been exposed to excessive radiation. Radiation turned Dr. Reed Richards, Ben Grimm, Susan Storm, and Johnny Storm into the esemplastic (for you fans of STC) Mr. Fantastic, the lumpy orange Thing, the Invisible Girl and the Human Torch, respectively. And good old gamma rays turned brilliant Bruce Banner into the huge, stupid, green Incredible Hulk and wearing they call him old jade jaws raggedy purple pants. While the Marvel universe contains many more irradiated freaks, some of their people were born weird, and others worked hard to be worthy of inclusion in this universe. The mighty Thor was born an immortal, he can’t help it if, among mortals, he has super-powers. Captain is Marvel the man without a world from the Kree Universe, one of their mightiest warriors. The Vision is an android and was constructed to have the ability to alter his molecular density at will. Dr. Strange gained his mystic powers through years of tutelage under the guidance of the all-wise Ancient One. A list of all the characters in the Marvel Universe would stretch on, through Conan the Barbarian, and on, through the blind Daredevil, through Werewolf by Night, to Dracula, the Man-Thing, and on and on and on. Some of them are normal looking, for the men, this means enormous muscles, and for the women, lots of tits ’n ass.

Deathlok is a cyborg and he makes the six million dollar man seem like an overgrown cubscout. Deathlok is more metal than flesh, and he is ugly. He was not-in-the-least-bit-objective created as a superweapon by one Major Ryker. “If we’re going to win this war, we need soldiers who won't get splattered over the battlefield! We need super-soldiers men with' bodies of steel and minds of computer precision! Men who function with the infallibility and fearlessness of machines.

State Correction Commission chairman is under scrutiny by Randi B. Toler Special to the Spectrum Herman Schwartz, long time prison reform advocate, and former law professor here, is being questioned by the Senate Committee on Crime and Corrections to determine whether his position as Chairman of the State Commission on Corrections should be confirmed. Schwartz, supported by the New York State Coalition for Criminal Justice and many reknowned prison reformers, has been under scrutiny because of two of his actions taken since he was appointed as Commissioner by Governor Carey last August. Senator Ralph J. Marino, Chairman of the Committee, questioned Schwartz on his policy of hiring ex-offenders to the commission’s staff, and his proposed minimum standards for visitation, mailing and other privileges. Upset by the fact that Schwartz has hired ex-offenders to the commission who are still on parole, Marino charged that this was too great a risk to take both to ex-offender and to the security of the prison. While Schwartz insisted that ex-offenders did not visit prison facilities alone, and that they had no opportunity to ask for blueprints of the prison, he agreed that the hiring of parolees might be a dangerous problem. > Questioning Mason expressed satisfaction with their work. Schwartz’ minimum standards on visitation call for the providing of contact visits for pre-trial detainees. This would relate only to local facilities, since federal have already been prisons mandated to do so by the courts. In a part of his forty page statement to the Senate Committee, he explained the rationale behind these minimum standards. “These are the matters which affect the inmate’s relations and ultimate reintegration with the outside community. The average inmate of a local facility will not stay there very long. It is thus especially important to maintain his links with his family, friends, and the community. As United States Attorney General Levi recently observed, study after study, in New York, California, and elsewhere have shown that the maintenance of family and community links is crucial to reintegration of the inmate into the community and to reducing recidivism. This is especially true for the large number of pre-trial detainees who may never be sentenced to prison. All of the proposed standards “mandated by governing court relate, directly or indirectly, to decisions or are recommended by either the National Advisory that.” Schwartz went on to say that Commission on Criminal Justice all of the standards are either Standards and Goals, the National S.A. - Schwartz, age 44, is a graduage of Harvard Law School, and until his appointment had been teaching law here.

Coleman stipulated, however, that the plane could not fly supersonically over the U.S. The bill, which was phrased as a ban on airplanes louder than 108 decibels during take-offs and landings, passed the Assembly 139-4 and was approved 46-10 by the Senate. Governor Hugh Carey has not yet signed the measure, but he has expressed “reservations” about the SST in the past. Any ban on SST landings at Kennedy Airport would require similar action by New Jersey, since all three New York City area airports arc run by the bi-state Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. < Controversy Controversy over allowing landings of foreign SSTs has been growing since the U.S. Senate voted in 1971 to halt development of the American SST. However, the Concorde only began making commercial flights in the past several months. Senate Minority Leader Manfred Ohrenstein (D., Manhattan), rebutting charges that an SST ban would be unfair to two American allies, said the U.S. had no obligation to support any project “which is simply not justified and not necessary.” John Caemmerer (R., Queens), the Senate sponsor of the bill, said constitutents who live near Kennedy Airport are alrtady upset at noise from subsonic jets. The additional noise of the SST is unacceptable to them, he said. bill Subsonic planes often produce more than 108 decibels, but the the limit. and Engineers gives them five years to be modified to meet the plane that asserted with the Concorde.have involved planners cannot be modified to such an extent, however. off In addition to high noise levels associated with an SST taking flight produces and landing, opponents emphasize that any supersonic cause other minor a “sonic boom,” which can crack windows and that the SST complained also property damage.

Fordand Carter winners in first Presidential primary Former Georgia governor Jimmy Carter and President Gerald Ford were the big winners in die New Hampshire presidential primary, as voters went to the polls for die first time this year in an effort to choose the next President of the United States. Carter, a former peanut farmer and nuclear submarine commander, won the Democratic “beauty contest” with a 30 percent share of the vote, followed by former congressman Morris Udall of Arizona with 24 percent. Senator Birch Bayh of Indiana was third with 16 percent. The Republican race, which attracted most of the press attention and over 100,000 voters, was taken by Ford by a spread of 51 percent to 49 percent for his opponent, former California governor Ronald Reagan. The Ford win is regarded by many national political observers as an upset of sorts, since most polls had shown Reagan ahead. Ron Nessen, the President’s press secretary, noted that Reagan had a big lead two weeks before the balloting, but that the two trips Ford made to New Hampshire for campaigning appeared to cut into that lead considerably. Long summer Nessen also pointed out that Reagan had spent 21 days campaigning in New Hampshire, which Nessen labeled as his stronghold among the Northern states, while Ford spent only four days there. For his part, Reagan asserted that, “One primary does not a summer make.” He claimed a “victory in New Hampshire, based on his announced goal of 40 percent and his 49 percent performance. In the area of delegate selection, Ford scored a resounding triumph, securing 19 of the 21 Republican spots available. The Democratic primary ended up with Carter several on top by a fairly secure margin, l?ut candidates also claimed victories. Udall insisted that viability of his his second place finish proved the candidacy, although he had the best organization in the state and was expected by many to do better than he did. Former Senator Fred Harris of Oklahoma finished fourth with only 11 percent, but he noted after the balloting that the other candidates were beginning to espouse his views on several issues, and that had hurt his own campaign. Shriver hurting One Democrat whose back is now up against the wall is Seargent Shriver, the party’s Vice-Presidential candidate in 1972. Shriver finished fifth with only 9 despite the fact that he is a Catholic and New Hampshire is a largely Catholic state. It is widely felt that if he cannot pick up any steam in his home state of Massachusetts in next week’s contest, his candidacy will be in serious trouble. Senator Hubert Humphrey, who has repeatedly stated that he is not a candidate (although he would accept a draft), was the beneficiary of a write-in campaign which netted 6 percent of the vote. Governor George Wallace of Alabama and Senator Henry Jackson of Washington, both announced candidates who did not campaign in New Hampshire, each collected 1 percent. The next three weeks will see all the announced Democratic candidates, including Wallace and Jackson, compete in the Massachusetts, Florida, and Illinois primaries. Carter, the current front-runner, will face a strong challenge from Wallace in Florida, and if he wins there, it could be very hard to stop him from winning the nomination in New York City this summer. - Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Editorial - y/ote Biased report today Today is the last day to vote for Student Association officers, and we urge those of you who have not yet done so to cast your ballot before it's too late.

It has come to my attention that the people of this country, and more particularly, of N.Y. State, have found it necessary to preoccupy themselves in needlessly debate over the possible decriminalization of marijuana possession. In my country, we do not interfere with natural processes. Seeds that God has sown are allowed to grow and be used by whomever deems it necessary. Even the use of certain strains of Basidionycetes sporophores (mushrooms), constituents of which are known to be highly toxic, is left up to the discretion of the individual. Why then must the use of marijuana be any different? Although 1, myself, do not partake of the I thoroughly support substance, its decriminalization. In almost 25 years of private practice, both here and abroad, I have not once come in contact with a patient exhibiting signs of adverse effects due to the use of cannibis.

Gonna Take a Miracle, which outing. last vinyl was Laura's 1971, in November R&B of classic reworkings consisted of The album and soul standards served up deftly by Laura and LaBelle. During thfe four year interim, reclusive silence, life style changes and an emotional and spiritual renewal have fueled and ordered Latjra's days as they aged and transmuted into months and then years. In the late 1960's Nyro was a virtual one woman song writing assembly line. The Fifth Dimension, Barbra Streisand and Three Dog Night all rode her compositions to the top of the charts. Laura had an intuitive knack for penning excellent pop songs. Aside from molding her own musical career, producing top calibre songs for other artists to cover, Nyro was a strong influencing factor on Todd Rundgren; especially his early albums which are brimming with Laura’s alluring pop presence and •emotional introspection. Ms. Nyro's music was renowned for its constant rhythmic tempo changes which charged the songs with a swaying intensity. Laura was also remarkable at using her voice like a jazz trumpet that had caught the quick of eternity in a fleeting, pulsing moment. Her utilization of vocal overdubs on EH and the Thirteenth Confession are sublime feats which are an artistic triumph in themselves. Finally, Laura could exude a sense of pein and emotional suffering with an authenticity that was as beautiful and rare as it was touching and frightening. Smile is Laura's re-entry into the medium she turned her back on four years ago. The record begins with Laura nervously whispering "It's strange" before launching into the opening cut, Smokey Robinson's "Sexy Mama." Gone are her predominant piano songs, in their place are jazz flavored melodic haiku. The horn work of the Brecker Brothers, Joe Farrell and George Young flutters like bio-energenic butterflies echoing a joyous catharsis. Laura has managed to temper her confessional powers with a strain of eatern intrigue. "Children of the Junks" and "Smile" are the most in their content and overtly oriental instrumentation. The latter seques into a coda in which an ethereal flute flirts with a koto, while the former concerns itself with a community of junks. But Laura hasn't forgotten the blues. "I am the Blues" and "Midnite Blues" summon musical lovers to penetrate through the barriers of loneliness and emotional armor. Throughout Smile is the undercurrent of&Kirageoutisurvival in a world where people "wheel. War and whitewash their days awayT "The Cat Song," a mesmerizing tune about Laura's cat named Eddie, purrs along on cat's paws and a feline sense of grace and spontaneity.

It is a peace which gives one the ability*#) carry on and embrace life. Laura's voice is modulated and evocative and not as manic as her previous recordings. She seems to have stumbled upon her own instinctual rhythm while gaining an insightful feminist maturity. Her lyrics are open ended and are full of enchanting snatches of imagery.

As man advanced his civilizing influences on the environment, and thereby on himself, the arts were used more for entertainment than anything else. The three arts reached their combined zenith with Houdini, Thurston and the Great Blackstone. The era of the traveling magician and his full evening's presentation of mystery is over. No more do the caravans of trucks pull up at the stage door with their strange cargos. No longer do beautiful women dressed in Oriental costumes tread the boards of the Hippodrome or the Erlanger. Having appeared with Blackstone at one point in my early teens, I naturally jumped at the chance to see The Magic Show, now appearing at the Studio Arena Theatre.

He is young, fresh and possessed a grin that would melt an old maid's heart. And he really tries to make everything work right. I am confused as to whether he is an actor who has taken up magic, or a magician who is trying to act. If the former is the case, it has been done better by Bill Bixby.

Savalas may be fins on Kojak as a tough-talking New York cop of Greek descent ("Kojak" is television's version of a Greek name what do I know, it's Slavic to me); but as television's answer tp the Renaissance man, he falls flat on his Tootsie Pop. Last week, if you had watched "Telly-vision," you could have caught (and dropped) Savalas no fewer than six times (to watch all of his appearances, you would have needed a TV Guide concordance) as he did everything but have a test pattern tattooed on the back of his head. In addition to Kojak, Savalas and his head appeared on alt three networks: on a variet special, a network movie and three talk shows (with Johnny Carson, Mike Douglas and Dinah Shore he was probably with Merv Griffin, too, but who cares?) on which he glibly and articulately plugged his variety special and network movie. Remember how the movie factories of the 1930's would send their actors to school to learn to sing and dance? Well, television, which never lets an opportunity to glory in its success over movies pass, is only too willing to show that its stars are not one-dimensional either. - — Kindergarten of the air Unfortunately, as we watched Savalas try to sing (talk his way through songs is more like it) and dance (Terpsichore renounced her Greek citizenship), it seemed as if television was conducting its school on the air and Telly baby failed. It really makes you appreciate stars (like Johnny Carson) who are content to stay with what they do well -and have the decency to keep their self-indulgent forays into other — fields off-camera. Savalas did do a creditable job as James Bond's arch-enemy in On Her Majest's Secret Service, a film he made a few years ago, pre-Kojak. What was interesting, though, was the way ABC, in its promotional announcements for the film's television revival, gave Savalas top billing, which was definitely not the case when the film was iTiade. Whenever television, with the same sense of pride that makes the successful author's mother show off his second-grade scribblings and the same embarrassment they cause the author resurrects films made by television stars when they were only supporting actors in films, the message is clear: "Look, movies, you had these guyrand you couldn't take advantage of them. Television can. Wyaaah." There is no question that, as the medium becomes increasingly aware of it's power to control, not only our consumer tastes, but our aesthetic tastes as well, it will continue to flex its media muscles and produce these over-extended ventures from stars who are unwilling to accept their talent limitations and who have never heard of the Peter V Principle. * — . i — EM SPECIAL Served Mon. thru Fri. | Until 11 a.m. and k> Sun. thru Thurs. y AFTER 9:00 p.m. Sun. thru Thurs. 3 BUTTERMILK PANCAKES TOAST PLUS 2 COUNTR' FRESH EGGS, as you like 'em I Look at the sky.

Let's face it sex is fuh. This is a know fact, but our society and its moralistic supporters (giant crumbling edifices) would like to make us forget. The church and its bastard offspring would, in fact, like to make us feel guilty about ourselves and our enjoyment of each other. Our capitalistic society cannot derive much profit from sex, so it goes along with the church and its supposedly moralistic teaching: "Make profits, not love." Fortunately, there are two things working against this dual assault on the human emotions. The first is the mind of man.

Having indulged in X-rated fantasies and, only occasionally, lifestyles, I will not hesitate to plunge into a few descriptions of some of the things I found to be interesting. If not titillating. One of the first things Hurwood does is to distinguish bi-, homo- and hetero-sexual desires and the places you can obtain fhformation and the places you can go to find out more. {Yes, Virginia, there are gay bars in Passaic.)

The second soloist, Wendy Braitirlan, accentuated and exaggerated Jacobson's image. Carried away with her own sensuality, growing wild, she suddenly snapped back to the machine motion. Her performance was extremely commendable. The alternating images of expression, then repression of expression, occurred over and over, ending with a temporary version of merging couples leaping upward in a Messianic message, only to turn once again into stiffly bound creatures. However, one dancer does walk away, searching upward to regain the vision. The only problem with this number was that when the dancers were not exactly synchronized, they appeared awkward because of their close proximity to the audience. Self-aware stars The second dance was performed by Linda Swiniuch and Jan Fischer. ‘There was a star danced, and under that was I born," choreographed by Swiniuch, undertook to express the rote of women, self-perceived and perceived by others. The music ick boogie chorur '.h itched although it was used in sheet of plastic laid careful moderation. A dear on the floor served as an apparatus of separation. Symbolizing a swimming pool, it allowed the audience a dear view of the dancers. The piece centered around a woman, provokingly played by Janice Birnbaum. Alone, naked and undisturbed, she gave an element of tranquility, her graceful movements exuding peace of mind. Biller added a new dimension to the dance sound other than the music, which was Gemini fora String Quartet by Andrew Velcoff. This sound was used to frighten the audience, to shatter and awaken us. As Birnbaum choked in the saw her suffocation; once the noise subsided and motion once again became prevalent, the tranquil setting Was restored. However, throughout this convincing scenario, we were but voyeurs, and could not rightfully bring ourselves to interfere, even by simply ' — feeling. Once the other actors entered the stage, jumping into the pool and crowding her, then we also felt suffocated. As those dancers gained control over the girl, we also felt helpless. Their movement trampled hers, and their own noise trampled their own movement. For the movement alone was necessary to calm us, and when it was not prevalent, the dance was frightening. ' Prodigal Sun �Workshop into the nee of dance of some caliber who will teach the authenticity of the art." The committee feels that it does not receive the funds it needs for this kind of talent, although artists like Pearl Reynolds hope to do more work at by John Fliss Spectrum Arts Staff The University Union Activities Board (UUAB) sponsored a "Caribbean Dance and Folklore Workshop" Thursday, February 19, in the Fillmore Room and Friday, February 20, in Katherine Cornell Theatre. The guest artist was internationally known choreographer Pearl Reynolds. Reynolds brought with her Emile Latimer, a percussionist with Richie Havens, who led the essential section. Reynolds came to SUNY at Buffalo for the purpose of teaching two traditional Caribbean dances. The first technique, "Yanvalou," was covered at the first workshop and the second, "Juba," was the subject of the second program. v Yvonne James, chairperson of the UUAB Dance and Drama Committee, commented on why the term "workshop" was used, instead of the usual "master class" label: "Pearl was really getting into the 'essence' of the folklore, not so much lecturing, but explaining the movements as they go.along. 'Esssence' is sometimes, but rarely, done in the usual master class method." this University. Lots of movement Reynolds is presently a faculty member at Brooklyn College, and recently started teaching at Rod Rodgers' dancing studio in New York City. She has performed on Broadway and throughout Europe, Africa, - Living history "Rather than the usual involved. set pattern of exercises and techniques Feral brings with her to the dance floor the history of what's being done," James continued. In general, Reynolds feels there is a great need in the Buffalo area for more workshops like hers. According to James, it took an entire workshop for participants to loosen up, even moi% mentally than physically. Reynolds felt that at first people vypre closed to the essence of the dances, but that great progress was made later in the workshops. For the most part, the dancers finally opened their minds and became one with the rhythm, instead of trying to step into the music. ‘The 'essence' is to become one with the universe instead of viewing it from the outside," Reynolds stated. Chairperson James feels that when people like Pearl Reynolds come to the University, the novice can really understand and relate to what they are doing. In James' words. "What she does is nothing foreign, but is taking from you and is you. It's from you; you move and you move from inside yourself, and isn't this what dancing is all • about?" She continued, "Being a dancer myself, I can understand this; and I also understand the kind of 'distance' that people have in their attitude toward dance, so Pearl is just an example of the types of artists that I'd like to narrow this gap with." ' .. - . No more pedestals James thinks people are reluctant to come to this type of program because of the “high level" on which they have been placed. She wants people to know that this kind of activity is for everybody, not just dance-educated individuals. "As the new chairman of the committee, I am trying to build a dance audience. This isn't to say we don't have one; we have one. I'm just trying to bring it more out to the people. It can truly be understood by everyone and it's something that everybody should enjoy and appreciate. I kept it free of admission because I wanted it open to everyone. I wanted everyone who heard the drums to come in and see what was happening," said James, who was appointed to her UUAB post last October. It is the intention of the Dance and Drama Committee at this point to get people with authority, credentials and experience behind them. In the words of the chairperson, "You're dealing with expertise ■1 ■ i. here, just as in music or any academic area. The idea is 'quality,' not just having anybody come in and ramble on about what someone told them. It's about raising the level of conscousness, and to bring someone > * x the W< Indies and in South America. She received the John Hay Whitney Award for her work in the West Indies. Reynolds was a scholarship student at the Katherine Dunham School, the Martha Graham School and Julliard, where she studied both the ethnic and modern idioms of dance. She has choreographed many shows for Miriam Makeba and Nina Simone, and has appeared on the Ed Sullivan Show and in the movie Jamaica with Ricardo Montalban. She also worked with the late Langston Hughes and other celebrities. The African Cultural Cepter, the School of Movement on Utica Street and other colleges also participated in Pearl Reynold's workshop. "The dancer's response was really incredible," said James. Several dancers came up to Rodgers afterwards and told her that it was the first time they had ever really discovered their bodies. Most of the spectators were moved and thoroughly impressed. Betty Pierce, an Erie Community College student and a member of the School of Movement, summed it up with this statement: "To see Pearl Reynolds is to experience Pearl Reynolds; to experience her is to be part of one of the most inspiring performers of our time." »'* Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . �Community Theatre The West Seneca Players succeed with "Plaza Suite" delivery of lines and control of by Kenneth Norman her Yiddish Spectrum Staff Writer The West Seneca Players, one of many community theatre groups in the Buffalo area, finished a successful run of Neil Simon's Plaza Suite last weekend. A predominantly West Senecan crowd of 600 people enjoyed the comedy, lending not only support for the monetary company but a generous amount of laughter and applause. As a result, the performers were generally riding high for Saturday night’s performance. Terry O'Shei showed this in his portrayal of Roy Hubley in Act 3, "Visitor From Forest Hills." Hubley is an upperclass, middle-aged Jew, who pours over $8000 into his daughter's wedding at the Plaza Hotel, only to find she has locked herself in the bathroom. O'Shei's tremendous energy was throughout the many trials and tribulations of convincing "Mimsey" to come out, trying to keep the guests quiet, and finally in desperation, trying to break the door down and climb along the window ledge to get in. Evelyn Squitieri, who played his wife Norma, put in a very stable performance with near perfect accent. The audience reacted wildly to this act. Unfortunately, at times they drowned out some very good lines or missed the humor completely. Timing of comic lines could have been used to sustain the emotions of the crowd by building a comic climax instead of proceeding after the laughter subsided: Norma and Roy Hubley could have played off of one another more. The fact that her accent was so much more pronounced that his tended to make them seem less of a team and more like two individuals. As a couple, they could have used their interactions to cue laughs and highlight important lines. The lack of interaction was highlighted in the final sequence when the groom, Borden Eisler (Joe Kozma) brings Mimsey out of the bathroom with just two words, "Cool it!" A stronger, more visual reaction from Roy and Norma would have prevented that climactic moment from being lost to the audience. 2, "Visitor from Act Hollywood," showed more interaction between Hollywood producer Jesse Kiplinger (Jack Judge) and Muriet Tate (Dawn Guarnieri), his old home town girl friend. Intimacy was required since this act involves Kiplinger's td seduce Muriel although she is already "happily" married. "Visitor from Hollywood" was hilarious but trite as Muriel downs seven vodka stingers and begins to talk about Jesse's success and how "happy" her pnarriage is. Guarnieri and Judge interact with their audience well, working with funny lines and adding laughs of their own through their actions. Act 1 featured Anne Surra as Karen Nash, a middle-aged woman whose marriage is Just about finished. Her husband is always away, either working or have a secret affair with his secretary, Miss McCormick (Darlene Fix), Surra appeared to be the only human in a world of machines. Because of the coldness of McCormick and Nash, Karen is the comic, using the people around her as straight men. Surra carried the ball well until the final sequence when her husband asks her to hate him and file for divorce. Because her husband has no real character, there was no one to hate and also 10 one to love. Ed McNamara's r-jrtrayal of Mr. Nash was so devoid of emotion that Surra was hard pressed to convince us she was broken up about him leaving. Her delivery and his set up of the comic lines were very good. Director Dennis Goal put on a fine show and did not refrain from making improvements in the already outstanding script. * It takes the best to cha all the Pabst. Since 1844.

Even though the gym was jammed, it didn't matter to either the crowd or the Parlaments. It was almost as if the crowd of 2000 was under a trance as they danced to the music. Before the Parlaments came out, a young local group called Tomorrows Creation performed. It was quite apparent that they were amateur and the crowd soon became restless, shouting, "We want the Funk, gotta have some \ Funk." When asked about their costumes, the Funkadelics replied in an interview after the show, "Our dress reflects our life style on and off the stage." This musical group is unique in many ways, but its members feel they are not very different. "It’s only natural for us," stated Bpotsie Collins, the bass player and vocalist. George Clinton, the group's producer and vocalist, was asked, if the Parlaments change their music to suit the times; "Yes, we have to go forward, in fact we go forward before the The Parlaments (alias Funk Mob) originate from Jersey City and have been together 19 years. The name of their band is the Funkadelics. The group had singles but as far back as 1954. Right now, the Parlaments are at a peak of their success, and totally in a world of their own. The group has always been noted for their dress. This time two men wore diapers, one man complemented his diaper with a white wig and white cape. Other members were dressed in Arabian garb and yet another looked like a monk. You can never tell what a Funkadelic/Parlament may adorn his body with. giving the word FUNK its true meaning. They sang tunes from some of their past albums, and they sang cuts from their new album entitled Mothership Connection. The songs, "P. Funk (wants to get funked up)" and "Give up the Funk (tear the roof off the sucker)," drove the crowd wild. A lot of people could honestly say the atmosphere of the concert was marred because of the crowd, but the Parlaments said they like crowds like this because it gives them energy.

Page fifteen �RECORDS Diana Ross (Motown Records) After a lengthy two and a half year hiatus from recording, Diana Ross, holder of 15 Billboard certified number one singles, more than any other American artist, has released a brand new album. Simply titled Diana Ross, the album reflects the precious vocal talents of Lady Ross to the utmbst extent with a vibrant array of ballads, standards, disco flavored rockers and some med-paced love songs. This album is the best recording Diana's made since her days with the legendary Supremes. For the first time in years, Diana sounds interested in her material, as if she's finally found the right kind of songs for an album. After two consecutive albums that were strictly easy listening MOR, and were excessively panned by both critics and followers, Diana has returned to her roots. She has totally re-emerged as a vocalist supreme. Her singing is alive, energetic and full of enthusiasm, something left out of most of her post-Supreme records. With potential sure-shot singles like "I Thought It Took A Little Time" and "After You," plus the recent number one "Theme From Mahogany," Diana sparkles and glitters in her inimitable, unique way. She glides through these med-paced love songs with ease, and skillfully manages to make the most intricate and complex melody seem totally effortless. Witness the "Theme From Mahogany": She changes key no fewer than five times yet shows not the slightest amount of strain or overt exertion despite the many key changes. It's these med-paced love songs where Diana's effective. The only disco tune, "Love Hangover," is a rare example of a disco song that's actually tolerable, if not good. With the excellent Motown studio band backing up Ross' superior vocals, "Love Hangover" is one of the better disco songs to appear since the disco scene's inception.

She handles this slow standard beautifully, singing with all the warmth and love her slinky voice can muster up] and making the song sound contemporary apd fresh, despite the fact countless other artists have undoubtedly covered it. The entire album is good, with the tunes penned produced by Michael Masser standing out. Masser's recent work with Diana is the best she's done since the old days with Holland-Dozier-Holland and the Supremes. He has a knack of bringing out the best in Diana, something other Motown producers have been unsuccessful at. With "Mahogany" completed and no film plans in the foreseeable future, Diana seems determined to concentrate on doing what she does possible better than anyone else: singing. As she says: "I started singing because it was fum Then it became really hard work. Now I'm going to play again." Well, play she did, and with Diana Ross came up a colossal winner. -Steven Brieff and * Al DiMeola, Land of the Midnight Sun (Columbia) At the age of 21, Al DiMeola, of Chick Corea's Return to Forever, is already being called one of the best guitarists in the realm of jazz-rock.

Now, like his RTF cohorts Stanley Clarke and Lenny White, DiMeola has put out his own solo album. Land of the Midnight Sun. The album, although quite enjoyable, is also quite predictable and, like those of White and Clarke, does not really measure up to the collective efforts of the group. The main focus here is of course on DiMeola's playing, and most of the material follows a strict pattern of chorus/guitar break/chorus/guitar break, which becomes tedious at length. Unfortunately, neither the backup band nor the music is really good enough to sustain interest, even though Al's guitar is as amazing as ever. Side one is dominated by two long electric pieces ("The Wizard" and "Land of the Midnight Sun") which, although well structured and flawlessly played, lack memorability. Reminiscent of Santana or Return to Forever in places, these two compositions serve mainly as vehicles for DiMeola's fingers to show off, and that they do. Mingo Lewis, author of "The Wizard," plays percussion throughout the Ip, and it is the rhythm section which lends the most excitement to the electric material. The backup musicians vary from cut to cut, with Lenny White, Alphonse Mouzon, Stanley Clarke making guest appearances. An unaccompanied acoustic version of the sarabande from Bach's Violin Sonata in B Minor lends redeeming variety to side one, and is one of the album's better selections. The side ends with DiMeola's "Love Theme from ‘Pictures of the Sea'," a short, melodic cut with an unexpected surprise Al and Stanley Clarke on vocals. Most of side two js taken up by "Suite Golden Dawn," another DiMeola composition. The piece is extremely varied in texture, ranging from - / - Page sixteen . the heavy rock chording to funky guitar-bass riffing to RTF-type chord changes as it goes on. However, the suite is essentially one long, lightning fast guitar solo, and as such, very similar to what was already heard on side one. The album's most worthwhile cut is its final one, Chick Corea's "Short Tales of the Black Forest," an acoustic piano-guitar duet. Displaying impeccable control of dynamics and phrasing, Corea and DiMeola tease the listener with rippling bursts of sixtreenth notes, creating an atmosphere similar to the acoustic "Song to John" on Stanley Clarke’s Journey to Love. Although I will not dispute the fact that DiMeola is a master of his instrument, I question the necessity of his recording a solo album. He may have felt stifled within the environment of Return to Forever, but it seems that the best selections on Land of the Midnight Sun sound like them. Indeed, the most interesting cut on the album ("Short Tales") was composed by Corea, and featured him on piano. As with many of the members of established groups who have released solo efforts lately, it looks like Al DiMeola creates best while —John Duncan being stifled. Spectrum Friday, 27 February 1976 . Prodigal Sun �Power Hostile democracy To the Editor. To the Editor. “ of the press After this third epistle, I shall more or less gracefully withdraw, leaving the letter page to the usual unbroken litany of trendy liberalism. (Do I hear a sigh of relief from the editor? A round of applause from the Revolutionary Student Brigade?). The point to be remembered about Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges is that they do not merely “study” but advocate. It simply makes no sense for a state to finance those who would wish to destroy it. It is this combination of advocacy hostile to our society being financed by the state that makes the whole situation objectionable. Brian Douglas declares that ‘Truth is relative to man.” Yet how do we know if something is “right for now” unless we have some prior standard of Molliken proclaims that judgement? David philosophy and politics are only “subjective studies.” Then why object to Hitler’s philosophy? After all, some people like bird-watching, some like I feel as a student and a vice presidential candidate it is my duty to reply to the vicious attack against me in Wed. editorial of The Spectrum. By reading this paper, an uninformed student would think that I didn’t have any qualifications for this position. Because The Spectrum supposedly knows more than students, some students take The Spectrum as god. Six editors of The Spectrum decided by a group interview that I didn’t have any leadership abilities. They don’t even regularly attend Senate meetings. The Spectrum doesn’t state facts in this editorial to back up their opinions. They take quotes out of and expect you to believe their context interpretation. I hope students investigate the candidates much more intelligently than this. Please read all you can and make your decision (if you haven’t already) by using all the information available. JeffLessoff - bridge ... True relativists would be as indifferent to the doctrine of academic freedom as to any other doctrine, yet Mr. Molliken talks about “rights” and Mr. Douglas considers some ideas “invaluable.” One can almost conclude that they do believe in absolute truth. The denial of absolute truth is an evil doctrine. Let it be remembered that the man most directly responsible for the death of God Incarnate asked whether with a smirk or a heavy heart rhetorically we do not know, “What is truth?” - Stuart Gudowitz Bad press To the Editor: The Albany State Press, flagship newspaper of the entire SUNY system has disgraced itself and made a mockery of collegiate journalism. Through investigation, it uncovered rampant abuse, misuse of power, and corruption in SASU. Instead of disseminating this information to its sister newspapers throughout the SUNY system as it has the privilege and obligation to do, ASP tried to peddle the story. Rightfully, several newspapers refused to accede to this blackmail. Regrettably, the students at these universities and colleges will never learn of these wrongs. Unfortunately, as always, it is the students who suffer. N. Lewis SUNY at Buffalo Worthy of praise To the Editor. This letter is offered in response to a polemic which you printed on Wed., Feb. 18, concerning Dr. Charles Mitchell’s Shakespeare class (“Reading into Shakespeare”), in which he was labeled as “sexist” and “incompetent,” and his class described as “a constant and unending harangue about the destructive, low, bestial and vile qualities of women ... presented in an offensive manner.” To anybody who has taken the time to listen seriously to any of Dr. Mitchell’s Shakespeare lectures, the charges he is up against will be seen as totally without foundation, to the point of being laughable. To the accusation of “sexism”; it is well known that the attitude toward women in Elizabethan times was not as open and mature as it is becoming today. Where this attitude has been encountered in Shakespeare, Dr. Mitchell has attempted to demonstrate its influence on the characters in the plays, not to defend or glorify it. He has, in fact, gone so far as to condemn characters for having precisely those attitudes which the writers of the Feb. 18 letter accuse him of holding! The charge of “teaching incompetence” borders on absurdity; Dr. Mitchell’s lectures and comments reveal a thorough understanding, not only of Shakespeare, but of the mainstream of Western thought. As a teacher, he has the gift of not only making Shakespeare accessible to his students, but also provocative and entertaining. The claim was made that there is no discussion this is a bald lie. The class is conducted as an class; in open forum, and anybody can freely express his own interpretation of any play or character, regardless of how it may line up with Dr. Mitchell’s. Charles Mitchell is an accomplished scholar and a highly competent and engaging professor, and completely innocent of the ridiculous charges which have been leveled against him. It is our hope that prospective students will not be swayed by the unfair attack which appeared against him in this paper on the 18th. Dennis A. Clary Victor Gulotta Edward E. Hornung Mark Grohol Gary D. Weiner Kevin M. Galvin Stephen R. Duren Jackie Hershenson Matthew M. Mamley Linda R. Pfonna Madelyn Javlon Social factors in Lebanon To the Editor. This is addressed to the people who have read Mr. Samuel Prince’s letters to The Spectrum concerning the Lebanese civil war. In what follows I hope to be able to redress some of the distortions and inaccuracies contained in Mr. Prince’s letters. It should be noted that Mr. Prince had written letters before to The Spectrum as the Director of the Israel Information Center. Needless to say, this colours his perception of the Lebanese situation. To understand the situation in Lebanon some aspects of the social and economic system should be noted. First, feudalism runs deep in Lebanese society. An indication of this is the fact that the five big families of the town of Zghorta (the hometown of the Lebanese President Souleiman Frangiye) each has its own paramilitary formations. The militia of the President is led by his son Tony Frangiye. In addition, the militia of the rightist phalangist party is led by the son of Pierre Gemayel, the leader of J;he party. The son of Kamil Shamoon leads his father’s National Liberal Party’s militia (also a rightist party). On the “leftist” side the lines are less clear. However, it should be noted that the leader of the “leftist” coalition at present is Kamal Joumblat, chairman of the Lebanese Socialist Party; he is himself a descendant of a feudal family, and his popularity is strongest among the Druze community to whom he belongs. Second, the Moslem conservatives who chose to join the leftists in the recent fighting (the coalition referred to as the “moslem Left” in the U.S. media) did so in the hope of strengthening their bargaining position vis-a-vis the Christian conservative families. The coalition is clearly a temporary one based on common interests. There was a period in the civil war in Beirut during which speeches were made in mosques denouncing the “Left” and “Atheism” (usually these speeches are a clear indicator of the big and rich Moslem families’ position). The “Left, however, did not mind forming a military coalition with these few Moslem families, for without such a coalition the “Left” would have been totally crushed. Third, the Lebanese economy is largely dependent upon services; these services connect the Arab world with the rest of the world. However, it is estimated that half of the commercial transactions that take place in Beirut do not benefit the Lebanese economy. This laissez-faire policy originator of the along with the almost service-oriented economy non-existence of government protectionism vis-a-vis the local industry, causes a high disproportion in the - - distribution of wealth; thus, as Eric Rouleau of Le Monde points out: . . agriculture and industry, which employ 40 to 45 percent of the labour force, provide less than 30 percent of the gross national product; other estimates indicate that half of the national income is “ . controlled by 5 percent (or less) of the population. By contrast, workers in agriculture, industry and construction combined receive only 12 to 15 percent of the national income.” (Le Monde, 18-24, Sept., 1975). The Israeli raids on South Lebanon, the awfulness of the poverty of rural areas, and the shiny lights of Beirut, all caused a heavy migration from the periphery to the center of the country. The poor masses of the South, of the Akkar and of the Bekaa valley (once the “breadbasket of the Roman Empire”) flooded toward Beirut to join the Palestinian Arabs (refugees since 1947-48), Syrian workers, Kurds and Armenians, to form what has come to be known as “the belt of misery” around the luxurious hotel area of Beirut, the voluptuous foreign residences, and the Christian middle class area of Ashrafieh. Striking similarities can be detected between the present civil war and the social revolution of the 1840’s and 1850’s that took place in Mount Lebanon. In those years, Tanius Shaheen led a peasant uprising against the feudal lords; as one historian observed: “Because some of the deprived peasants were Christian and their overlords were Druze, the uprising assumed the false image of a sectarian strife an image perpetuated again in the present bid of Lebanon’s poor for social justice.” “Democratic” channels did not help the as a wretched in their “bid for social justice” Lebanese columnist put it: . . They (the poor) signed hundreds of petitions . . . But no one read them . But even if they (the governing rich) had read them, would you think their conscience would have been bothered at all? Forty years have gone And suddenly the gun reached the hand of the poor . . and they were told to shoot . . . and they shot blindly . . .” ( Al-Nahar 8/9/75). To return back to Mr. Prince’s analysis of the events in Lebanon, I would in no way claim that the religious factor was absent in the crisis. However, if I were to weigh its importance, I would have to say that the social and economic factors would by far - — “ . . . . , outweigh it. Tony Khater Friday, 27 February 1976 The Spectrum . Page seventeen . �Time management Possible solutions to more effective time use by John Butler Spectrum Staff Writer Do you ever have days that go by totally wasted? Have you developed a habit of putting off until later things you could and should do right now? Do you find difficulty organizing yourself or have problems accomplishing goals? If you answer yes to any or all of the above, perhaps a change is in order. Richard Towner, a Student Personnel Manager at the University of Cincinnati, proposed possible solutions at a Time Management Workshop Monday in Norton Hall for people who need to use their time more effectively. According to Towner, there is no clear-cut answer to these problems and one cannot become a new person overnight. Towner said by patiently following some simple steps, or keeping some of his tips in mind, one can accomplish more in less time. Consciousness raising Towner first suggested raising consciousness about time through awareness of what you are doing right now, and questioning what value it might have. If there is something more pressing or important to do, one will recognize that a change is needed. Towner said there is a “fine line between being conscious of time and being anxious about it.” To become upset or nervous about not completing something defeats the purpose. Then faced with the problem of having a number of things to do, simply prepare a list, starting with the most important task, and work down to the least important. If you are really frustrated with the way your day was spent, he said, carry around a notebook and record every half hour what you did in that time. This will provide a total, detailed picture of the day, and from there at .least an understanding of where time is wasted. It’s not actually managing time, but management of the self, Tbwner explained. Whatever we are doing at this moment came about through a value judgement. We decided on this one activity over any other. A key is to stop ourselves at these sub-conscious decisions, he added, and question' why we are making them.

Two words synonomous with managing time are planning and patience: patience to work on the job at hand, and not look ahead until it is completed. Undertake one thing at a time, he said, and finish it. Tower admitted that some amount of self control is if necessary one expects to change and accomplish more, and his advice will be of no benefit unless He emphasized that many be done with it. These people set people don’t consider themselves goals for themselves, and have time wasters. But there are also difficulty attaining them in the those who have problems expected time.

According to U.S. News and World Report, “The big shifts in society and the economy are catching up with United States’ home life.” Couples today want smaller families. The over-all fertility rate per woman is estimated at 1.9 children compared with 3.7 in 1960 and 2.5 in 1970, the magazine reported. The United States Bureau of Census found in 1974 that the majority of women of childbearing age (75 percent) expect to have two or three children, although 17 percent “intend to have either just one child or remain childless.” Only 8 percent planned on 4 or more children. combination of Through a contraceptives and later marriage ages, the smaller family size has evolved. U.S. News that together these two reported “contributed to a marked decline in childbearing.” Changing desires and expectations Due to the financial burden, as well as to the fact that women’s “desires and expectations” have changed, the shift towards the smaller family size has developed. The employment level of mothers is continuously rising. Many women are finding motherhood “more nearly a part-time job,” according to psychiatrist Robert S. Weiss, in his report at a symposiujn on “The Family and Its Future” held in 1970. There has been an ever growing shift in thought from the previous decades when a mother’s place was thought to be in the home. As was reported in the June, 1975 issue of Psychology Today, “most children now have mothers who work outside the home (51 percent of mothers of school-ajge children work, and 67 percent of these mothers work full-time). Highest work rates are found among young mothers with low incomes who work most because they need the money the most.” Also noted in the article was the fact that mothers of middle-income families have joined the labor force “at , a higher rate than married women from lower income families did in the early 1960s.” Cornell psychologist Urie Bronfenbrenner has attributed this trend of middle class - Difficulties vary Because the United States is a heterogeneous nation consisting of people of many economic levels, the difficulties faced by parents in different financial women conditions vary. Men and of a deal economic great experiencing problems must determine if they will have sufficient resources to support a child, as well as maintain their own security.

The' changing role of the mother, in Weiss’ view, “will delegate nannies, babysitters, child-care centers and nursery schools” to manage children. The U.S. News and World Report agrees. “As households change or break up, children are increasingly under the care of a single parent, a working mother, a day nursery or the television set.” — Family size to continue decline In an article for Science magazine, “The American Birth Rate: Evidences of a Coming Rise,” June Sklar and Beth Berkov compiled data from the Monthly Vital Statistics Report of 1975. “With only one minor exception (in 1969 and 1970), the American birth rate dropped steadily after its peak in 1957. By 1973, the latest year for which nationwide data are available, the general fertility rate hit the lowest point ever recorded for it 69.2 live births per 1000 women aged 15 to 44.” Now that it’s reached its lowest point, SPEAKERS- Dr. Harry Fritt-Dean, School of Haalth Educ.

QFM 97 & Harvey & Corky present An Anniversary Film Festival ' — Sklar and Berkov believe that the birth rate will begin to rise, but the size of families will continue to fall. They attribute this expected increase in births is tfie large number of women in the 20-29 age group, the “prime childbearing age.” Born in the late 1940s and early 1950s, when the birth rate was on the increase, these women are expected to have at least one child because “there is evidence that they do not desire to remain childless permanently,” according to Sklar and Berkov. From projections to 1990 by the U.S. News and World Report economic unit in 1975, both marriage and October childbearing will continue to occur at later ages. The number of marriages should increase and peak around the end of the century, with the size of families averaging about two children per family. Now and in the future, the size of families will continue to reflect the changes in modern society resulting from high costs and a shift in lifestyles.

Normally, Athlete of the Week is selected each Monday, photographed by Tuesday, and read in The Spectrum on Wednesday, but this week the sheer number of qualified athletes made the regular approach absurd. Instead, a longer dissertation on the quality performances exhibited last week will be substituted for the normal format. But wrestling wasn’t the only sport which boasted solid individual performances last week. Although the basketball Bulls lost by a wide margin to Virginia Commonwealth University, center Sam Pellom turned in another amazing performance. He scored 24 points, blocked 10 shots, and hauled down an incredible 31 rebounds. Pellom has been leading the nation in rebounding periodically this year. Buffalo’s women’s basketball team was not without its stars either. Like the men’s team, the women’s center is their best player. She’s Ann Trapper, and she led The most impressive team performance both teams in scoring and rebounding in last week was supplied by the wrestling the hoopsters’ 61-40 victory over Fredonia.

The mermaids were just as impressive as the mermen.

In that meet, teammate Mary Drozda had three individual wins along with a shared first in one of the relays. The last noteworthy performance of the week goes to a fencer, namely Tom Bremmer. The fencing Bulls have not been too successful this year, but Bremmer won all six of his matches last Saturday. A transfer from the Naval Academy, Bremmer scored three of his epee triumphs against Penn State, one of the nation’s more highly regarded fencing schools. Uw bull pan by David J. Rubin Sports Editor If anybody ever told me that I’d be writing a column in the middle of February on the steps of Harriman Library wearing just a light shirt and no jacket, well, the whole thing is just unbelievable. Things have really been hopping lately, so much so that there is no way that everything of importance can be fully covered. Nevertheless, I’m gonna try. Firstly, the fact that the swimming Bulls are SUNY Center champions again and that the wrestling Bulls are state champs again is more evidence that intercollegiate sports should be maintained at this University. Buffalo already has a solid academic reputation, but victories such as these add a great deal to Buffalo’s all around University reputation. There are many specialized areas like communications and journalism which are lacking entirely at Buffalo, and it is necessary to maintain programs like athletics to prevent this University from becoming a technical school. If the hockey Bulls reach the playoffs, (Oswego lost to American International 10-4, and that will help.) that will be just one more feather in the cap of Clark Hall. In fact,' there were so many outstanding performances by Buffalo athletes, that for the first time since its inception last year, the format of Athlete of the Week had to be changed to allow for a fair representation of all the qualified athletes. Not only that, but both myself and Assistant Sports Editor Paige Miller agree that last weekend produced the most impressive overall performances by Buffalo athletic teams in the three years that we have been at this school. Another big thing that came up this week was the visit by representatives from the State University of New York at Albany. They sent six students, faculty and administrators to check out the merits of building a facility similar to the Ketterpillar (Bubble) here. They face similar overcrowding conditions to what Buffalo students have been dealing with for years, they think that a Ketterpillar-type facility may serve their needs better than the Ketterpillar has served ours. However, the best thing about the Albany visit was that it gave myself and Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia the chance to find out about the mysterious miracle which led to the financial security of the Albany athletics program. It seems that SUNY Albany’s Student Association set up a fixed portion of the mandatory fee for athletics years ago with the provision that it would be honored by future Student Associations. Although the figure arrived at was fairly high to begin with, a provision was also made to increase the athletic portion if costs dictated such an increase. This continuity effect is what makes SUNY Albany’s plan so successful. Athletic coaches and administrators can well estimate how much money they will have far in advance. But in Buffalo, athletics must go on trial each year and fight for funds. It would be a giant leap forward if Albany's program could be adapted to Buffalo athletics. Finally, there is one political note that should be mentioned on this final day of SA elections. You’ve got to wonder about the athletic proposals of some of the candidates running for office. They say they want to establish a football team with a limited schedule, expand programs at the Ketterpillar, and also expand women’s activities. The cost involved in these programs would have to be at least S25,000 and such a sum could only be found at the expense of other athletic programs. The entire proposal seems quite shortsighted from where 1 sit. �i I BUY 1 SINGLE ORDER OF CHICKEN WINGS, ! GET THE 2nd ORDER I Now!

Canisius College will host the women’s "basketball championships, with the final games being played at Memorial Auditorium. Buffalo State will be the site of the men’s swimming championships, which will be a three day affair. Based on the regular season competition, it seems safe to say that there is no clear-cut favorite in women’s basketball. Canisius trounced Buffalo 69-42, and Buffalo beat Buff State S1-4I, but then Buff State upset the pattern by whipping-Canisius by thirteen points. The only weak sister in the conference seems to be Niagara, which has lost all three of its Big Four games by at least 29 points. Championship a toss up Although Buffalo State will be the top seed due to point differentials in the Big Four games, their coach, Carolyn Lehr, admitted “any one of the three teams has a chance to win it.

The Bengali only loss in Big Four competition was to Buffalo, which switched to a 1-3-1 defense for the first time all year, and later switched to a full-court press to beat Buffalo State. The Bulls leading scorer has been center Ann Trapper, averaging close to 17 points as well as over fifteen game. Clyde rebounds per O’Malley has been second in scoring all year, as well as being Buffalo’s backcourt ace. Canisius beat Buffalo badly, but Bulls’ coach Carolyn Thomas felt that Buffalo’s 19 percent shooting was not indicative of their true strength. “The day we played them, they couldn’t buy a basket. I’m sure they’ll be stronger this time,” said Griffins’ coach Cathy Bramer. Center Karen Jachimiak and forward Carol Murdoch have been the Griffins best players this year as Canisius compiled a 6-3 record overall.

Bengali best In contrast to the situation in women’s basketball, the men’s swimming Big Four championship has a clear favorite, at least according to Bulls’ swimming coach Bill Sanford. He feels that Buffalo State, which has a 10-2 record and is undefeated in Big Four competition ritould be the best of the four schools. The big battle will be between Buffalo and Niagara for second place. The Purple Eagles took the regular season encounter with Buffalo 64-48. “We’re very close to Niagara, if we’re at full strength,” said Sanford. “I’m worrying about whether we’ll have a full complement.” Several of the Bulls’ swimmers had to miss meets recently due to the flu, and many haven’t returned to full strength yet. Sanford went on to say that differences in admission standards and coaching requirements gave the Bengals an advantage, since Buffalo State admissions standards were lower and their coaches do not have to teach physical education courses as do the Buffalo coaches.

When the tournament ended, the Bulls returned to Buffalo as state champions for the third consecutive year. Besides winning top honors as the "New York State Team Champion, nine out of the ten Bulls entered in the competition finished in the top six of their individual weight classes, qualifying them as all-state wrestlers. Grapplen turn year around -This year’s squad has come a long way since the season began back in early November. At that time, in a time of crisis at this University. If, as in past Association (SA) elections, only ten percent of the undergraduate student body votes, the President of this University can claim that the elected officials dp not really represent the students, and thus can be ignored. If the one officially recognized representative government on campus does not in fact represetfl the majority of students, there is little to stop a campus administration from carrying out arbitrary actions against the interests of 14,000 undergraduates. If you do not vote today through Friday, the administration may have an excuse to shut down the Student Pharmacy, to kick NYPIRG out of its office, to disregard student opinion in the planning of the shopping center on the Amherst Campus, to close down the Record Coop for good, to cut out innovative Colleges and departments, and to tell students they have no right to decide how to spend their own mandatory fee money. Students have perennially complained that SA is not doing its job, that it is not protecting the interests of the'student body. While this argument has some merit, there is not at present any viable alternative to the regularly-elected student government. We cannot wait for non-existent messiahs to save the students when the crisis in student services comes to a head. We are going to have to rely, for better or worse, upon the students holding SA office to deal with a well-organized administration striving to extend its power. Even if you haven’t trusted SA up to now, vote and stay on SA’s back all year if you don’t think the officers are doing their jobs.

However, during the latter part of the season, the Bulls have ' turned themselves around \ Coach Michael speculated as to what caused the change ht this year’s team. “Our team is very young. A guy can mature during the latter part of the season. And don’t forget, we’ve already taken the brunt frpm the other teams. Now. it’s our turn.” J It certainly was Buffalo’s turn at Oswego. The Bulls scored a total Of 123'A points, which was 1714 points better than St. Lawrence which finished second of the 18 participating teams. Following Buffalo were St. Lawrence 106, Colgate .98, firockport 8414, Cortland 6854, Oswego 5414, Potsdam 4614, Union 4414, Binghamton 4014 and RIT 3014.

Powell, who lives in a fashionable neighborhood along Jewett Parkway, said neighbors of his had observed unmarked police cars nearby, and had been visited by agents of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in past years. According to Powell, the neighbor who was visited, (he wife of a faculty member here, was shown naked photographs of several male members of the so-called Buffalo 5 (a group indicted for raiding draft board files who were living at Powell’s house at the time), and asked if she had seen any of them.

Several windows and a door were damaged by the crowd, and a second floor water cooler was uprooted, flooding the basement of Clark. Abdul Wahaab, Chairperson of the Black Student Union (BSU) which co-produced the concert with UUAB, said the size of the crowd far outstripped the number of tickets, and there was nothing BSU’s security could do to prevent the group from surging into the gym. Wahaab said damage to the gym was minor and will be paid for in full by the promoter’s insurance. He emphasized that the damage was caused by the pressure of pushing bodies and not deliberate acts of vandalism. There were no arrests or injuries at the concert, he added. Replying to an editorial in Monday’s issue of The Spectrum, the BSU leader said there was no counterfeiting of tickets or misdeeds by concert workers. All 1800 tickets were sold through the Norton Ticket Office, and none were sold at the door. Although the doors were closed after the 1800 person capacity at the gym was reached, the crowd remaining outside pushed their way past six security and about 15 concert workers, said Wahaab. While concert workers tried to take tickets at the door, they were only partly successful because of the sheer numbers of people who were trying to get in, he added. concerts No problems Sunday Wahaab extended apologies to people who were left outside Clark despite holding tickets. He said that anyone holding a whole ticket would receive full credit toward the next concert (date and group to be announced) sponsored by BSU and UUAB. However, if tickets to the next concert are more expensive, they would have to pay the difference. No outright refunds will be given, he said. Wahaab said that “a crowd like this happens once every ten years,” adding that the unexpectedly large turnout may have been due to current releases by the groups in addition to a dearth of concerts on campus this past year. Another BSU concert took place Sunday night without event. BSU programming The Parliaments and Funkadelics concert was part of Black Homecoming Weekend, which also included an awards banquet for Hugh Basset, Colleen Polite, and Michael Brisco held at the Vermillion Room, 33 East Ferry Street in Buffalo. Except for Friday night’s concert, the weekend events were well-attended and highly successful, according to the BSU chairman. Wahaab said the problems at the concert should not obscure what he characterized as a highly successful, year of programming by BSD. The organization has sponsored or co-sponsored speeches by Prime Minister Louis Farrakhan (of the Nation of Islam), comedian Dick Gregory, playwright Imamu Baraka (formerly LeRoi Jones), and poet Gwendolyn Brooks; concerts by Caribe and the Steel Band; commuter breakfasts every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday morning; tutoring programs; and International Dinners. Wahaab credited BSD Activities Committee Chairman Robert Powell and Student Association Minority Student Affairs Coordinator Tyrone Wilson for helping plan and carry out these events. Infirmary —Tepper Free lunch program out Students who catch the flu in the near future will find that meal service in the University Health Service (UHS) infirmary is no longer free of charge. “The food budget has put the infirmary thousands of dollars in the hole over the past few years. As a matter of fact, last year we weren’t able to get some medical supplies,” explained Luther Musselman, acting UHS Director. UHS did not decide to start charging for meals, Musselman said, “this decision was made by the University administration.” Edward Doty and Carter Pannil, Vice Presidents for Finance and Management and Health Services, respectively, ordered the policy change to help reverse the UHS budget deficit which in past years the administration has tolerated, according to Musselman. < Musselman admitted that charging for food service in the infirmary “is worse for students than Students voicing rage with FSA by Keith Friedlander Spectrum Staff Writer A recent spot-check of the Faculty Student Association (FSA) revealed that students are generally dissatisfied with the high prices charged by nearly all FSA operations. Drug and sundry items in the University Bookstores, for example, ranging from Dial soap to Contact cold capsules, cost from $.14 to $.30 more there than the same products at Twin Fair. In fact, a recent survey conducted by The Spectrum showed that Bookstore prices were higher than local stores on 15 particular items. Another arm of FSA, Food and Vending Services, was also the recipient of complaints from students unhappy with “over pricing” on meals or the lack of posted information on obtaining refunds on money lost in campus vending machines. A random survey at the Ellicott Complex showed there were no signs instructing students as to where they might obtain refunds. On the Main Street Campus, however, some machines advertised that refunds were available at the Bursar’s Office if a “seven day limit on claims” was observed. Asked why the Amherst machines had no refund information, Sam Davidson, a manager at Food and Vending replied, “The signs are in the trucks, it’s just 'that we are so far behind.” Meanwhile, Mitch Siegel, a junior, said he probably lost “two to three dollars” in vending machines since the beginning of the school year. Spaghetti and meatballs Because of the larger amount of money involved, complaints about board contract seem more numerous. “A typical food service meal might consist of spaghetti and meatballs with only spaghetti and sauce as seconds,” says Tom Taylor, formerly on board contract. “How can they call it a second helping when it is completely and totally inferior to the first helping?” A worker at the Richmond Quad cafeteria revealed that “nearly half’ of the students on meal plan last semester have dropped it. “Usually people complain, but this is the first time 1 have ever seen this happen,” he said. Another worker confided that Food Service relies on second semester freshmen to make up the deficit but due to an admissions freeze, this had not occurred. Students visiting friends at other state campuses have returned with tales of “virtual banquets” while transmitting stories of woe. “At Albany,” says Ellicott Resident Advisor Charly Goldberg, “we sat down for a roast beef dinner. It was so delicious that I stuffed myself. I must have gone back two or three times. Here, you’re lucky if you walk away satisfied.” “At Oswego,” adds Robyn Kleinman, a student there, “for about what you pay for ten meals a week, we get weekends as well. Plus, we get open-grill.” “Open-grill” refers to a system by which students may obtain meals in-between regular meal hours. getting it for free,” but it’s still a lot better than paying about $170 per day to stay at Meyer Hospital, or $85 at Buffalo General, he pointed out. The most a day in the infirmary might cost is $16,80, Musselman said, and that would include comprehensive tests and lab work. The new meal prices are $1.61 for breakfast, $2.14 for lunch, and $3.05 for dinner. Infirmary patients do not have to buy the food service meals, but come dinner-time the alternatives are few. Visitors willing to hazard the risks of going into the infirmary (which are especially high during What to do the current flu epidemic) may bring commercially As to what can be done about FSA at this University, Effman advises friends, foods to their but home-made students to “cut off funds to FSA and look for alternatives.” prepared products are not permitted for fear of “As soon as you give them your money, you lose control of it,” he said. contamination.

Kennedy Airport in New York City for a trial period of sixteen months. United States Transportation Secretary William T. Coleman Jr. announced his decision to allow the Concorde limited access to two American airports after much deliberation. The trial period flights are subject to stringent restrictions. Only two flights a day will be allowed into, Dulles, and only four into Kennedy. Over United States territory, the jet will have to travel at sub-sonic speeds, avoiding the super-sonic boom. There will be no take-offs or landings between ten p.m. and seven a.m. local time. Coleman maintained that the testing period would put the United States at the forefront of of international standards for development commercial super-sonic transportation. High cost The Concorde cost French and British investors three billion dollars to develop, as well as a production cost of sixty-five million dollars per plane (as opposed to the original projection of twelve million). The heavy financial interests involved prompted the British and French to hint at economic retaliation against U.S. airlines and weapons manufacturers if the plane was barred from landing in America. However, Coleman’s decision to allow the trial flights has averted possible diplomatic strain between friendly nations. The right of the European SST to land in the U.S. was challenged by environmentalists who argue that the jet is “noisy, dirty, and a major factor in depleting the earth’s atmosphere’s ozone layer.” Studies show that the Concorde’s low frequency noise emissions trigger structural vibrations three and one-half times greater than ordinary jets. Us take-offs and landings are twice as loud as those of sub-sonic planes. In response, Coleman has ordered multiple noise monitoring systems set up at both airports to study the effects. Since the SST will be travelling at sub-sonic speeds over U.S. territory, Coleman feels that the added noise of six daily flights is a small price to pay for field testing of super-sonic , PROBLEM PREGNANCY? MEDICAL CLINIC FOR UNWANTED PREGNANCY. f The Concorde is heavily pollutant, yielding almost ten times as much carbon monoxide as most other commercial jets. But Coleman said the effect of six flights daily on the quality of the air surrounding the airport would be minimal. Coleman ordered that the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) monitor the emission levels at Dulles and J.F.K. and promised that Concorde flights would be immediately discontinued “in the event of an emergency deemed harmful to the health, welfare or safety of the American people.” One reservation long held by environmentalists is that SST exhaust emission depletes the atmosphere’s ozone layer, which screens out certain forms of solar radiation. The resultant increase in intensity of the sun’s rays might eventually cause an increase in skin cancer. However, Coleman cited evidence of an increase in ozone levels in recent years, despite trends that would indicate the contrary (i.e., widespread use of aerosol sprays, etc.). There is no evidence that the approved six flights per day would cause any significant depletion of ozone levels, Coleman said. Coleman’s doubts Coleman himself expressed doubt about the feasibility of super-sonic technology. “It may well be that further development of this technology is not and economically sensible in the energy environmentally conscious period in which we live. “If so then the Concorde will fail because it is an anachronism, and its failure will be recongized as such rather than attributed to an arbitrary and protectionist attitude on the part of the U.S. out of fear that our dominance of the world aeronautical manufacturing market is threatened,” he said. The judiciousness with which Coleman approached the problem of environment versus engineering demonstrates a new ‘look before you leap’ attitude toward technology in some observers’ view. Governmental agencies might place scientific ‘advances’ under greater scrutiny before allowing their common acceptance. “The Coleman decision reveals that we have a new way of life in the country: environmental and technical problems have to be faced before they get out of control,” observed Russell Peterson, chairman of the White House Council on Environmental ! , KWIStCT DOTlUt* [jA QUALIFIED COUNSELORS are to answer your questions.

Such a disproportionate amount of black and Spanish-speaking inmates to black and Spanish-speaking guards makes it difficult, if not impossible to meet the needs of these inmates, results in a certain amount of racism. As for the general treatment by the guards, an inmate described it as “subtle.” “There are those who treat you like human beings," he said. Medical service was termed “very bad.” Although the Department of Mental Hygiene, which provides psychiatric services and is independanl of the Medical Department, was praised as being “one of the best in the state,” medical-care wax criticized as “needs working on.” Hear 0 Israel For gems from the Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 — — difference!!! : MCA!

A teacher at the prison spoke of the college program that goes on there. Bachelor of Arts programs were set up in May, 1975 through Genesee Community College, Rosary Hill, Niagara University, and Canisius College. Instructors from these schools go to the prison to teach inmates. A major complaint among the inmates is the cells themselves. Housing is “very had” and for those men in A, B and D blocks, there is “no privacy.” Cells are approximately six feet wide, nine feet long and seven feet high.

According to an inmate, ‘The vegetables are so dehydrated that the vitamins are Granting parole Other complaints commonly made by the inmates refer to the parole system, discipline and diet. As for the parole system, there has been “no real change.” However, this is not the responsibility of theadministration, but rather the Parole Board. When an inmate is eligible for parole, a report on him goes before the Board, which sets the basis for granting or denying inmate parole. “The inmate doesn’t get due process on the report,” an inmate charged. The prisoner can’t read the paper and the paper can be “detrimental” or “disastrous” to the inmate because he is never able to know what it says. For various reasons, an inmate can be placed in detention, known as the “special housing unit” to officers and “the box” to inmates. For example, if a fight occurs between an inmate and a guard, the inmate may be sent to the box. However, the guard is usually never reprimanded. Inmates in detention are restricted from programs and remain there while their case is reviewed by the Adjustment Committee. The Committee is composed of an officer of at least Lieutenant rank, an inmate and another officer. An inmate in detention may be kept there for a maximum of fourteen days unless time is longer period of a nonexistant.” To handle these and other grievances, a grievance procedure was instituted this month. An inmate submits a complaint which must be answered within forty-eight hours. Correspondence and visits are limited to those on approved lists. Except for legal corresppndcnce, an inmate’s mail is opened and searched for contraband. Visitors are met in the visiting room, which is often overcrowded, and are seated opposite inmates at a table. A screen no longer divides the table and inmates and visitors are permitted to hold hands. In addition, they may “kiss a body upon arrival and before leaving.” Due to overcrowding, a new visiting area is being built. As for the crimes which put them in Attica an inmate says, “Getting caught is the crime,” to which another added, “If you don't have .the money, you don’t the get off.” They cited “countryclub prisons and the Patty Hearst trial as examples. The recidivism rate at Attica is 75 percent. A majority of the inmates in Attica were represented by the Legal Aid Society, which works basically on a plea bargaining system. “If you choose to fight it, you’re looked at as if guilty,” said an inmate.

YOU HAVE HELPED TO SET THE FINANCIAL PRIORITIEI OF NEXT YEARS BUDGET �Community leaders oppose Board integration proposal by Paul Saepierski Spectrum their schools. The case was argued Judge John T. Curtin in October, 1974, and his decision is still pending. before Staff Writer Two local community leaders took issue with the Buffalo School Board’s recent integration proposal at a forum held Saturday in the Norton Conference Theater. Norman Goldfarb and Frank Mesiah, co-chairman of the Citizens Council on Human Relations (CCHR), said that the Board’s plan was set up to sidestep pressure by the State Education Department for a full-scale integration effort in the Buffalo school system. The Board drew up their plan as State Education Commissioner Ewald Niquist announced a state-mandated plan would be forthcoming in the next few weeks. According to Board officials, their plan calls for considerably less bussing of students than the State plan would have. However, the Board plan calls for closing the schools and shifting grade levels in others. “When you analyze the details on a map with school populations, knowing the number of black and white children in each of the schools, you see what another fraud it is!” said Goldfarb. CCHR, along with the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and a number of concerned local parents, have sued city and stale officials, charging them with maintaining racial segregation in ; _ Not a plan Qoldfarb charged that the Board proposal “is not a plan for integration. It is a plan to close schools.” The plan would “more than likely add to the segregation of many black students,” he said, adding that many of the predominantly white schools to which black students would be allowed to transfer did not have space the available to accommodate all those who might actually wish to do so. A CCHR position paper Goldfarb distributed listed a number of schools where the group feared the Board plan would actually exacerbate segregation. The paper further warned that the plan places the burden on the black students to move to the white schools, does not address itself to staff desegregation, and still leaves a lot of schools segregated. Goldfarb claimed that the Board has yet to indicate that it is serious about desegregation, and characterized it as being “just as intractable as the Board of Education of Boston.” Feeble proposals Mesiah shared Goldfarb’s displeasure. “By submitting these feeble kinds of proposals,” he said, the Board is raising the level of expectation of people.” He warned that if and when a court decision came down demanding more serious integration efforts, “the letdown, I feel, will be so traumatic you will end up with another Boston, because of the deceit involved.” Mesiah accused the press of collusion with the Board in deceiving the public. He charged that the media continuously Board actions as presented genuinely remedial, while still knowing, for instance, that the recent proposal “does not come the meeting close to constitutional requirements to desegregate a school.” ' Goldfarb also outlined efforts by his organization to gather evidence for building a case for a “metropolitan remedy” for racial segregation. He said that CCHR volunteer investigators have uncovered “literally thousands” of restrictive covenants denying the use of suburban property to blacks. He mentioned that in the Town of Tonawanda alone, acres can be mapped where “builders, developers, and owners of the property have said, ‘No negroes can live in these houses, domestic unless they are servants’.” Some development Mesiah then interjected that one of these developers is now a New York State Regent. This was an apparent reference to Amherst real estate entrepreneur Willard A. Genrich.

Yet many people profess that it overcharges and utilizes the extra capital for higher salaries and other operational costs, thus showing no profits on its books. “FSA is definitely making money, since all profits are returned to the corporation. However, nothing is shown,” claimed Norm Effram, a lawyer for Legal Aid Clinic. However, when asked whether “rip-off” was a good word to describe the FSA situation, Judy Taylor of Western New York’s Better Business Bureau replied that it was not. “Many of the higher prices are due to legitimate higher operating costs,” she said. Adding that her organization had received “no complaints” from students on any instance of FSA price gouging, she recommended that students be made “more aware” of the services offered by the Better Business Bureau. The Student Legal Aid Clinic affirmed too that it had received “no complaints whatsoever” from students disgruntled with the pricing policies of FSA. ’.., Wednesday, 25 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �) > Executive Vice President Both David Brownstein and Steve Spiegel seem capable of stepping into the position of Executive Vice President, but again, neither are all that great. Both are articulate and self-assured enough to handle the often chaotic Student Senate meetings an important requirement of the job and both convey an adequate understanding of how to approach the pressing political issues on campus today. Brownstein's experience as IRC President would doubtless be useful to him as SA Executive Vice President, but we only hope that his dedication to the interests of Editorial — — fact remains that our student is responsible for managing nearly one million dollars of mandatory student fees. Many of the services and activities which SA provides with the money are in danger of elimination and cutbacks, so the importance of intelligent voting this year cannot be stressed enough. but the government Leadership, accountability and activism are the qualities to look for in candidates for SA offices. Because of the near-invisible election process on this campus, the burden of identifying such people rests largely on the shoulders of the school newspaper. Experience teaches us, however, that no matter how much faith we put in a particular candidate before an election, we usually end different warrants some effort toward endorsing those candidates whom we feel are more acceptable than their at least opponents. In p?st years, we have made an effort to be as conspicuous as possible in endorsing SA candidates. This year we have avoided that policy for a number of reasons. First, we feel that a less aggressive approach on The Spectrum's part might foster more independent thinking on the voters' part. Second, historically we have been perhaps unduly influential in determining the outcome of the election a role which this year we would not relish. Finally, with few exceptions, there are simply no candidates this year who are impressive or inspiring enough to warrant our unqualified praise. — President After sitting through four days of interviews, we decided it's not that there is no one on campus who can fill the role of SA President it's that the people who could really handle the job well either don't want any part of it or are running for other positions. In this bicentennial year, it should be noted that there are no Washingtons, or Lincolns, Roosevelts running for president. Not even a Millard Fillmore. In fact, it was much easier to decide who we didn't like than who we liked. Because none of the candidates had that special something that we were looking for (passions, fire), the following merely recounts the plusses and minuses of each. As director of Student Affairs this year, Steve Schwartz has personally fought to save the Record Coop and to guarantee student membership on the advisory board of Parcel B. He has also been involved in several SA lawsuits, although we wonder what he would do for student services if the court system proves a dead end. Mr. Schwatz gave a good analysis of what went wrong in SA this past year, but there is no assurance that he will not fall into the same trap if elected. Still, his determination to make SA an open government is admirable and we believe he fully grasps the urgency of the state of affairs — on campus today. Assuming that Mr. Schwartz can put his ideas into action, we give him the edge over all the candidates running for President. There is no doubt that Dave Shapiro is a hard worker and he did a commandable job as Director of Academic Affairs this year. The trouble is that he should have stayed in that office. President is not the job for him. While he recognizes that Dr. Ketter has abused his power of review over mandatory fees, Mr. Shapiro is too willing to leave many things just as they are. For example, his Page eight . abstention the Academic in Planning Committee's ■ vote to eliminate V Social i I 1V v Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges indicates an unwillingness to stick his neck out in the face of official disapproval. Al Donohue, formerly of the UB Vets Club, is a breath of fresh air in a stale environment. His primary goal is to bring larger political issues into the scope of SA through University-wide teach-ins on inflation and the relationship of U.S. foreign policy to unemployment. Mr. Donohue, however, is an individualist, and we are concerned that he might have problems with working students who do not necessarily support his views. Mr. Donohue is also inexperienced in SA procedure, although he has been at this University on and off since 1967 and has developed an excellent historical perspective. We'd like to see him instill a little activism on this campus but not as SA President. Abdullah Wahaab lacks a sophisticated view of most issues he'll give a slick answer for any question, no matter how poorly thought out, as long as it will better his chances of winning. We admire John Boncek's enthusiasm. He is bright and very articulate. However, he has no experience in any aspect of SA or University affairs and this is often reflected in his ideas. For example, his suggestion to allow- the faculty absolute control over academics (“because they should know more about it than students") is in our minds totally undesirable. Mr. Boncek has done well for a start. Give him another year and he could be primo presidential timber. Unfortunately, we were unable to interview Daniel Sherrer. We suggest that you read his statement in Monday's issue of The Spectrum to find out exactly where he stands. The Spectrum Wednesday, 25 February 1976 . T • • J dorm students extends to those of the wider University community as well. We share his view that students must be represented on the Parcel B advisory board, and agree with him that the extension of mandatory fee guidelines beyond their present limits is a dangerous trend which should be actively opposed. HoWever, his statement that "the [Student] Senate this year was one of the best," defies understanding, and his proposal to institute a "note-taking service" (a plan whereby notes would be taken in large lectures and later sold to students who may have missed class that day) seems like a waste of time. Of the three candidates running for this office, Steve Spiegel demonstrated the best understanding of the operations and potential of the Student Senate. His record as a Senator, Assembly, and Task Force member is an impressive one, and there is little doubt that he would chair the Senate meetings as competently as anyone. He too has the right ideas about mandatory fee guidelines and Parcel B representation. His plan of action in the hypothetical event that President Ketter threatened to close down campus movies is methodical and unimaginative. Brownstein said he would instruct his fellow officers to disobey Ketter's order, and then wait for the administration to make the first aggressive move. Jeff Lessoff in our view would be a poor choice for Executive Vice President. While his concern for the need for "real change in this school," is healthy, we don't feel that he is capable of bringing any about. His enthusiasm for the maintenance and extension of mandatory fee guidelines "so that we can know exactly what we can and cannot do with our money" demonstrates an ignorance of perhaps the most disturbing trend at this University namely Kettet's efforts to usurp as much student control over activities and services as he can. Lessoff does not appear capable of providing the leadership necessary to run the Senate, let alone act as substitute SA President should the need arise. - Editor's Note Editor's Note: These endorsements were made after interviews with almost all of the candidates by a consensus of The Spectrum's Campus Editors, Feature Editor, Sports Editor, Managing Editors, and Editor-in-Chief The Spectrum — Vol. 26, No. 60 Wednesday, 25 February 1976 Editor in Chief — Amy Dunkin Managing Editor Richard Korman Howard Greenblatt Managing Editor Advertising Manager Gerry McKeen Business Manager Howard Koenig — — - - Arts Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Renita Browning Laura Bartlett Feature . .

By the time they have thoroughly grasped the ins and outs of office, it is time for another election and the learning process must start over again with a different set of students. Carol Block is making her second bid for SA Treasurer, riding on her experience and record of this past year. Ms. Block, who presently sits on two ad hoc committees that are looking to defend student expenditures of mandatory fees, feels that now more than ever, SA needs people who know what they're doing. Her presence on the Executive Committee, along with her familiarization with the day to day financial management of SA, will lend a desired degree of continuity to the new administration. Additionally, she would like to maintain the continuity by training an assistant treasurer this year who will run and hopefully win the position of Treasurer next year. Probably the most trying phase of the Treasuer's job comes at budget time when every undergraduate club and service on campus tries for their share of the $800,000 pie. Ms. Block, having had the advantage of supervising budget hearings last Director of Student Affairs Both Lee Peres and Steve Ferst seem equally able to handle the position of Director of Student Affairs. Although only a freshman, Mr. Ferst has taken the initiative to investigate the University on his own, developing a commendable working knowledge of the overall administrative structure. In addition to using his office as a link between students and the administration, he has devised a unique way to bring for funds. Ms. Block has never made her commuter and dormitory students together by setting up i Concern for financial accountability a secret special encounter sessions. person, Mr. self-confident, outspoken apparently An approve refused to in the past, she has and problems concentrate on student rights Peres intends to requests for funds which were ostensibly inappropriate or did- not fall within SUNY if elected.

For those reasons, opinion regularly may be one way to alleviate the lack of we support her for another term as Treasurer. communication between SA and its constituents.

We don't believe she really knows for the job. year, is not at all overwhelmed by the potential problems this grab bag for money can cause. To ensure that money was spent legitimately this year, Ms. Block and the Finance Committee plan to spend the first three weeks of the budget process auditing every SA recognized organization that is reapplying — Director pf Academic Affairs Vice President for Sub Board It's too bad the three candidates for Sub Board Vice President are not running for three different positions. Each one easily demonstrated why he or she is the type of student SA needs so desperately. However, since all three cannot be elected to the same office, we throw our hats to Jonathan Roller, who combines an excellent working knowledge of SA with the right degree of craziness. Mr. Roller's perceptive analysis of the problems facing this University make him one of the few students to come along in the last several years who can take an up-front role on this campus. And if all else fails, Mr. Roller could easily talk any stubborn administrator into submission. One of his biggest concerns, as a member of the Sub Board Board of Directors, would be to correct the "horrendous" health care conditions on the Amherst Campus. He summed up the problem nicely when he said, "something bad will happen first, then they'll say we need help out here." In addition, he believes Sub Board has to have an active role in Parcel B because "UBF is clearly not interested in students at all." There's only one thing we wonder about Mr. Roller. Why didn't he run for President? Kathy Venezia, co-Director of the Human Sexuality Center, is sincerely concerned with getting new faces and personalities into SA. Her intentions are admirable yet we feel she doesn't know quite enough about the politics of Sub Board and could possibly be intimidated by some of the more arrogant people she would have to confront. From her experience over the past year, Judy Sack has acquired a good deal of insight into Sub Board. She feels, for example, that while the Sub Board Directors should not dictate internal policy of any of the divisions, they should work in creating a democratic system which would mandate equal access to all students. As we said before, we wish both Ms. Vanezia and Ms. Sack were running for other positions so they could become part of the SA Executive Committee. We hope, whether they win the election or not, they continue to channel their enthusiasm into helping the student body in some way. Director of Student Activities and Services We are reluctant to single out any one of candidates running for this position. While all three had some ideas about activities and services, none of them seems capable of providing particularly strong leadership once in office. With student services endangered by incessant administrative nitpicking, their overall naivete and lack of outrage was the disturbing. Patricia Lovejoy has a refreshing enthusiasm and spunk that could add some color to SA. She was also the only candidate who stated that "Ketter is overstepping his bounds” in his attempts to manipulate mandatory fee guidelines. However, her general knowledge of the campus has many gaps and she has no practical way of implementing many of her ideas. For example, she says she would like to bring football back to this campus but she could not tell us where the $20,000 needed for such a venture would come from. Jeff Winkler earned a point for mention- ing summer orientation as a means for familiarizing students with the SA clubs. He also wants to see commuter and dormitory organizations (such as Commuter Council and IRC) sponsor joint activities. If elected, Mr. Winkler would probably do a decent job in coordinating activities. Yet his analysis of the political situation on campus in relation to mandatory fees and student services is much too weak. Dennis Black impressed us as this year's "Ted Knight" candidate. He feels student representation on the Board of Directors of Parcel B is necessary for their own protection. An even better idea, he believes, would be for the UBF Corporation to pull back from Parcel B and let Sub Board or SA raise the necessary capital for the project. He also wants to "get together a valid survey on athletics." We doubt Mr. Black could do anything significant to make SA anything more than the lackluster organization >t has generally been. As best as we can tell, Andy Lalonde appears to be the best candidate for Director of Academic affairs. A member of the SA Academic Task Force this past year, he seems to know the job inside and out. Mr. Lalonde is very familiar with the different branches of the University to which his the administration, the job would constantly take him faculty, the departments, the academic clubs, and the Colleges. His analysis of the recently-released Academic Planning Committee Reports, that it was written by too few people in too short a time and that it looks more towards career-oriented education, is quite accurate. Much to his credit, he did not overemphasize the usefulness of SCATE, Although he said the results could be used to set up teaching workshops through the Faculty Senate for instructors who have forgotten how to do it. Finally, for the record, Mr. Lalonde swears he is not' related to that other Lalonde person who's been hanging around the SA Executive Washroom in the last 12 months. — Steve Walti and Bill Finkelstein, the other candidates for Academic Affairs Director, are both freshmen who need more time to develop the proper cynicism necessary to deal with this University. Mr. Walti seems too awed by the while thing and had trouble finding the words to express his ideas. In the short time he has been here, Mr. Finkelstein has become familiar with academics through the Engineering Department and Clifford Furnas College. However, he has too much faith in the "good graces" of the administration and probably wouldn't know what to do if a real academic crisis occurs. SASU Delegates As a whole, the students running for SASU Delegate am the most interesting group of candidates in this election. SASU has a very important role to play in the coming year, fighting cutbacks in Albany that could have devastating effects on students and the entire State University system. Outstanding in the field of candidates vying for the three SASU slots are Frank Jackalone and llene Cohn. Mr. Jackalone didn't realize where his true talents lay when he ran for SA President two years ago. At this point, he probably knows as much about SASU as any indidivual in the state and we believe he can use this expertise to maximize the organization's effectiveness, llene Cohn holds a national ranking in college debate competition and her gift of persuasive speaking couldn't be put to better use than in legislative lobbying. Honorable mention for SASU Delegate goes to Joyce Levin, Juan Gonzalez, and Glenn Englander. Mr. Gonzalez' prime concern is promoting minority membership in SASU, Mr. Engender wants to work with the Board of Trustees on behalf of student control of mandatory fees, and Ms. Levin hopes to inform more students about the function of SASU. We feel any of these three candidates, though lacking somewhat in practical knowledge of SASU, could rise to the position of delegate with proper coaching.

An open letter to the faculty Plants have feelings too To the Editor: . Dana Dubbs’ article on vegetarian diets was very informative and interesting. As a medical student I know that most of the nutritional facts are true. Dana left out one point concerning Vitamin B12 which is found exclusively in animal products. This essential vitamin is stored in body tissues, and the average individual has a three to five year supply. Vegetarians who avoid all animal products may eventually develop a serious deficiency. The immorality of cruelly destroying animals (which is recognized by many of the Eastern religions) is as indisputable as is the selfishness in Americans who use grain to feed cattle instead of people. However, it is curious that those who oppose “human chauvinism” and the killing of animals to satisfy appetites are usually animal chauvinists who are insensitive to the feelings of plants. '■ A celery plant chopped in half or a potato pulled from the earth has been murdered even though they do not cry out so that human ears are offended. I do not need to cite the many references which- have proved plants have feelings and do register pain when leaves are thoughtlessly pulled from them. Yet animal chauvinists who are so concerned about chickens and puppy dogs are oblivious to our vegetable friends and chomp on spinach and broccoli the way others chew the blood red flesh of slaughtered cows. The thoughtful reader will be left wondering: if and wrong to kill plants, it is wrong to kill what can we eat? Nature has provided us with abundance. Our animal friends do not mind giving us milk in return for love and care and respect. Chickens are happy to lay eggs all day, and an unfertilized egg is not a soulful chicken. If Americans stopped eating the flesh of martyred animals, the cholesterol in eggs and cheese would not be excessive. Plants provide many foodstuffs which can be harvested (without murder. Nectar, food for the gods, should be good enough for humans too. Trees actually prefer to have humans relieve them of the weight of their fruit so that their branches will not bend and break from the burden. Seeds and grains are offered to humans by plants, and there is no necessity to kill the parent organisms to get them. These foods are gifts from the society of plants and animals. This diet would provide humans with all essential nutrients. However, if humans continue to slaughter ruthlessly, pur plant and animal friends may stop providing us so generously. There is a question of the adequacy of these sources of food to nourish the entire human population. The human species has burgeoned through the exploitation of other living things so that it is impossible to live harmoniously with all creature-persons at our present number. Since all known methods of birth control, save one, have problems of carcinogenic potential or unsatisfactory efficacy, there is only one solution. We must stop fucking around. Michael Eric Mahler Page ten . The Spectrum Wednesday, 25 February 1976 . As many of you know, there will be an intellectual content, social significance, and the intrinsic value of critical inquiry. Furthermore, the extraordinary meeting of the entire Voting Faculty this Thursday, February 26, at 3 p.m. in 147 Committee has presumed to pass judgment on Diefendorf. The major agenda issue is the recently departments and programs which it clearly published Interim Report of the President’s misunderstands, thus putting into question the Academic Planning Committee. We are writing to autonomy and integrity of all disciplines. Secondly, the report is seriously misleading as a explain why we think it is urgent that you attend budgetary document.

The Governor’s proposed 1976-77 budget, another 125 criteria it uses to evaluate different departments are may follow. In this context, all the report does is to inconsistent and, in the words of the committee provide “maintained” units, some of which are itself, “incomplete.” In more than a few cases, already losing faculty and graduate lines, with a false evaluations of departments are based on sense of security. The report thus leaves us, as a unsupported generalizations errors of fact, and faculty, unprepared to combat these pressures. It selective use of evidence. Finally, the report calls for obscures the fact that quality education is being the elimination of a group of departments and destroyed, not “planned,” at SUNY Buffalo. The report places the University at a critical programs which, given what we know about the Ketter administration, could have been predicted juncture, and represents a challenge to the entire faculty. It fails as both a respectable educational from the start. We believe, however, that the Report has serious document and as a response to budgetary pressure. It implications beyond all this, which the faculty as a would leave us divided and vulnerable in the face of whole is obligated to consider. an unprecedented crisis in higher education.

Each position was given a concensus approval by those in attendance. I. The UB Veterans Association supports the Student Association, all campus groups, and the general student population in any efforts to maintain the present level of student services including; 1. Maintaining the Record Coop at least in its present status while urging and working toward a return to the previous levels of activity. 2. Maintaining the student run and funded pharmacy. 3. Supporting all student run and funded services, activities, and projects so long as those services, activities, and projects reflect the wishes of the student population concerned WITHOUT CENSORSHIP from or by the University Administration in any form. — — The UB Veterans Association supports the Too much paper pushing To the Editor I have in the past several months, noted that surging cutbacks imposed by Hugh Carey and administered by Ketter, Toll and other SUNY presidents are being met with either apathy, liberal consternation or paper answers from students. Paper answers include petitions, leafletting, lobbying, issuing of demands, requests and positions ad infinitum. I am forced by history in general and campus histories (1964-73) in specific to point out the inadequacy of paper answers. Moreover, paper answers are always defensive and in the crises at hand, have predictably met oppressive onslaughter with a type of response that already assumes at least the partial defeat of paper answers. Paper answers keep students, workers and lower echelon faculty at one another’s throats despite paper unities shouted from the highest elevation in this decaying city. Neither the most inclusive and implementable revolutionary program nor the newest of student government officials approaches to the University can save all programs, meet everyone’s needs. This is of Student, repeat, STUDENT FUNDS and therefore are outside the jurisdiction of any University administration. il. The UB Veterans Association opposes any increase in tuition on either graduate or undergraduate levels, full or part time. III. The UB Veterans Association opposes any and all cutbacks in graduate assistant programs or in the associated funding. The Veterans Association urges all veterans, and the general student population to vote in the ongoing student elections. If you want a voice in how YOUR MONEY is spent, now is the time to act. The Student Associations on this campus are entrusted with nearly ONE-MILLION DOLLARS in mandatory and voluntary student fees YOUR MONEY! - By not caring, not voting, leaving it to “someone else” you have expressed your opinion and lost your right to it! - — U.B. Veterans Association because of an exclusive reliance on paper answers. Paper answers assume that the people who dictate or administer the SUNY system, or for that matter, any hierarchial system, are moral, intelligent and responsive, that economics in a competitive society can make a special feudal principality, a special case out of the centers of moral, scholarly and socially responsible training, namely universities. This and similar attitudes towards reality, manifested by the response of Michele Smith, GSEU, The Spectrum, Coalition to Fight the Cuts, and letters from righteously concerned students to the cutbacks, is insufficient, at times dead wrong and will not Stop cutbacks. We will go down without realizing what we could have done to withstand cutbacks and generate a unified progressive movement to control our lives. This is not yet an epitaph. The ways to stop the cutbacks must not be paper answers. And each one of you commrades should by now know how to transcend paper answers.

NORTON RECREATION DESK or 2. HOLLY FRANKEL - 831-3828 - Staff Writer After an anemic 0-5 start, the women’s swim team recovered to win three times in its last four meets. “They’ve developed confidence. They know they can swim against New York State competition,” explained coach Barbara Sevier after her team crushed Niagara University 92-29 Saturday at Clark Hall. The Purple Eagles, who lost some of their swimmers to the Sophomore Semi-Formal held the night before, had a hard time staying afloat as Buffalo took first place in 13 out of the 15 events. The mermaids were led by Luan Bonfantix who swam on both the winning relay teams (the 200 yard medley relay and 200 yard free style relay) and also picked up a win for herself in the 50 yard breast Stroke. She also took second in the 100 yard individual medley. In the freestyle events, Sandy Yokota dominated the competition with a first place finish in the 50 yafd free style, and second place in the 200 and 100 yard free style. Yokota also anchored the 200 yard freestyle relay. However, Buffalo’s best performance of the day was turned in by Liz Repaski, who broke the school record in the 100 yard backstroke of 1:10.2. Repasky, who has been beaten only once this season, also won in the 50 yard free style, and swam the first lap in both of the winning relays. Sevier was pleased with the team’s performance, but thought they would have swam better against better competition. “Our kids swam well, but they didn’t have their best times,” she commented. They weren’t challenged, and they need someone in the next lane to really push them.” Most of the team (8 out of 11 swimmers) will be going to the state tournament in Potsdam, and Sevier is guardedly optimistic about their chances. “There will be swimmers with better times, but I think we’ll do well,” she said. “We’ll give them .some competition.” This will be the first time the women swimmers have attended the meet.” Men swimmers still strong Wednesday, 25 February 1976 The Spectrum . .

Winning their title matches were Bulls Ray Pfeifer, Bruce Hadsell and Bob Martineck. Just a sophomore, Pfeifer has established himself as a top college wrestler. This is the second consecutive year in which he has won the tournament title. A junior, Hadsell is not a newcomer to the tournament either. He improved on last year’s second place finish with his win this time around.

Like Hadsell, Drasgow improved on his finish of last year, moving up from third to second. Tundo, only a freshman, responded to his first real tournament test by going all the way to the title bout, where he was defeated. Taking fourth places were juniors Paul Grandits and Jim Breed, who both came on strong during the latter part of the season. Breed especially has done his best wrestling during the last three weeks. Fifth place was clinched by freshman Tony Oliveri. Like Bulls of the past, he too should improve with time. The last of Buffalo’s all-state wrestlers was senior Daymond Clark. Placing sixth, Clark was sick with a fever and could only compete in the first round. In last year’s tournament at Geneseo, Clark placed third While the Bulls were devastating their New York State counterparts, Kirk Anderson, perhaps Buffalo’s top grappler, was forced to view the tournament from the bench rather than from the mat. Anderson, who sustained a chipped right elbow while wrestling against Colgate three weeks ago, will probably be unable to compete again this year. League test will tell After the tournament, Michael said, “1 was very pleased with the effort of the team.” However, the Bulls’ coach is reserving more enthusiastic comments for next week, after the Bulls travel to Penn State to compete in the Eastern League Championships. That tournament will decide who will be going to Arizona in two weeks to compete in the 46th annual NCAA Championships. Buffalo’s league record this season was 1-4, but the Bulls’ magnificent wrestling during the second half of the season indicates that they should be more competitive against Eastern League foes this weekend. The top two wrestlers in each weight class as well as seven wild card candidates will represent the Eastern League in Arizona. With only six teams competing, the Bulls should be able to qualify at least a couple of grapplers for the Arizona tournament. Michael is optimistic in his view of the opening tournament. “Right now it’s a brand new season. I think everybody has a chance to qualify.” Commenting on the fact that the Bulls might be going into the Eastern League Championships with a psychological advantage, Michael stated, “Winning never hurt anybody.” For some Bulls, the long season may come to a close, while for others it’s only the beginning.

They beat Cleveland State 97-86 on Saturday night at Erie Community College-North (one of the Bulls’ three home courts). The Bulls are now 9-15, while the Vikings, who are having an even tougher year, drop to 5-17. “Our offense wasn’t outstanding, but it was pretty good,” commented Bulls’ coach Leo Richardson after his team had scored its third highest point total of the season. “Our number four worked the best offense the passing game tonight,” Richardson noted. Both teams utilized the fast break as much as they could. “Our running game was pretty good at times,” Richardson added, “but it wasn’t smooth.” Buffalo had 32 assists but also 30 turnovers, both above average. — is sponsoring a workshop on - ballgame, but it still counted as a win for the — Bulls take charge early A jumpshot by Buffalo forward Ron McGraw with 14:46 left in the first half put Buffalo on top 9-8, and they never again relinquished the lead. That the beginning of a 14-2 scoring spree jumpshot by the BulliT Guard Gary Domzalski, who stands 6’1” tall, used a six-inch height advantage over Cleveland State’s STanley Quirk effectively during that streak. Domzalski, who usually runs the Bulls’ offense and only shoots when he’s open, began looking to shoot right from the start. On one play, Domzalski dribbled behind his back, reversed directions, dribbled behind his back again, and sent a fifteen foot jumper swishing through the net. “I'm just trying to play well in my last few games,” said Domzalski, a senior. He finished with 21 points (game high) shooting 10 for 13, and had 12 assists. The Bulls’ lead dropped to eight at halftime, but they managed to build it up to 20 points. Then Buffalo center Sam Pellom, the nation’s leading rebounder, committed his fourth foul and had to sit down. The Vikings came back, led by center Dave Kyle, and cut Buffalo’s lead to eight, but that was the closest they could come. “1 didn’t like it when we blew that big lead,” said Richardson. “But our kids hung in there pretty Robinson and Vemell Washington who took up the slack when Pellom sat down. “Vernell made a ’V* has the difference for us,” Richardson said. potential to help us a lot.” About Robinson, a junior college, transfer from Niagara Community College, Richardson said, ‘This is his first year facing this kind of competition. He’s begun to realize he can “ Play.” Although Robinson and Washington each hit the boards hard during Pellom’s absence, they couldn’t stop Cleveland State’s Kyle. But neither could Pellom. Kyle scored 21 points, including one eight minute stretch in the first half when he scored all of the Vikings’ points (nine). Kyle, who is among the nation’s top IS rebounders, pulled down either 14 or 19 rebounds, depending on whether you believe the Buffalo or Cleveland State statistician. Regardless of the number, Richardson was impressed. “He’s the hardest .working center we’ve faced so far,” the Bulls’ mentor said. “I can see why he’s something like twelfth or fourteenth in the nation in rebounds.” The Bulls have two games remaining this year. Saturday night, they plan Geneseo at Clark Hall and a week from tonight, they conclude their season at Buffalo State, a team they haven’t beaten in nine years. > ' . Wednesday, 25 February 1976 .

Purchases funded through state budget allocations take place in three stages from request to final dalivefy and payment, according to Charles Devendorf, Purchase Order Associate' Tor the University. The overall cost for processing a purchase order, $30-$40 takes into account handling of the purchase. If the requested item is stocked by Stores, the Central state-contracted warehouse on campus,' the purchase order is immediately issued, regardless of the item’s price. if an Hern is not on state contract, its price determineshow the oader will be handled. Devcndorf explained that items costing less than $500 can be ordered directly from a local vender. Orders costing $500~$1000 personnel hours, supplies and require the campus purchasing fixed costs, such as office office to obtain three informal price quotations.

On S15jOO-S.2SOO orders, the Division of Standards and Purchase can place an order without competitive bids. Formal bids are required on items costing over S2S00, he added. Final payment is the third, and most time-consuming part of the The department that first is issued the the purchase good arrive, the sends the back to the The Purchase receipt of the item, to the campus It is then the State Audit and Control payment, according to Devendorf. He added that this last step may take as long as three . weeks. are Petty cash handled by the Office of Student Accounts, where vouchers of up to $25 may be accepted for small departmental purchases, Devendorf explained. The Student Association (SA) and Sub Board use a system called Reimbursement, Encumberance and Purchase (REP) in its disbursement of budgeted funds. The first step in processing a request for SA-budgeted funds is a check to see if the expenditure falls within mandatory fee guidelines, according to SA Treasurer Carol Block. If the funds are available and the request adheres to the terms of the organization’s budget, they “encumbered,” are explained Block. That budget is then adjusted so that even though the funds are not yet spent, they are nevertheless earmarked for the planned purchase. After this, the SA President and Treasurer or their designees approve and sign the REP form. The REP form must then be the University approved by administration, according to Block. The SA Treasurer then submits the form to the SA Banking Office, where the check is finally written. According to Block this entire process takes a minimum of ten business days. SA uses this procedure no matter how small the expense, and there are no petty cash vouchers. Block stated. SUNY administration hit hard by budget cuts Student services Course ofaction proposed The Student Association (SA) called together a roomful of students from several organizations Thursday night to come to grips with the current student services crisis at this University. Among the courses of action proposed was a drive to send a packet of petitions and letters supporting the services to the State University Board of Trustees and to SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer. "I-think it’s important that all student services work together in an effort to fight this threat and maintain our enterprises,” said SA President Michele Smith. Student representatives debated the advisability of requesting relief from Albany, questioning whether this should be a last resort. “If Albany decides to back Ketter in his attack on student services, we will have very little left to us in the way of options,” a representative at the meeting charged. However, counter arguments claimed the Board of Trustees is generally more responsive to student needs than local administrators. , The SUNY Central Administration is cutting its budget by $174,000 as part of a $52 million State University-wide cut proposed in Governor Carey’s new austerity budget, according to a SUNY spokesman. Hugh Touhey, Public Relations Director for SUNY Central, disclosed that while 33 positions have been cut at an estimated savings of $190,000, no salaries have been reduced. With allocations of $7.1 million, Central receives about 1.5 per cent of the SUNY budget. It was hardest hit by the budget cutbacks, shouldering a 12.5 per cent budget cut as opposed to a 1 per cent cut for the universities, said Touhey. In the past, critics of SUNY Central have charged that it receives too much money, and is a bureaucratic mess. Justifying these allocations, Touhey enumerated the executive body’s Wide, responsibilities.

The move is designed to prevent the recurrence of abuses of power by the CIA which have been reported in recent months. The executive order places CIA Director George Bush in charge of all intelligence operations conducted by the CIA, Defense Intelligence Agency (DJA), and the National Security Agency (NSA). It also creates a three-person civilian board whose purpose is to oversee the intelligence agencies and make sure that they do not overstep their authority. The President retained absolute control over the entire defense intelligence establishment, stating that “the final and ultimate responsibility falls on the shoulders of the President of the United States.” r Chinese women Different but equal to men As part of the first major overhaul of the CIA since its inception in 1947, Ford said he would ask Congress to outlaw peacetime a«acanatinn attempts against foreign leaders. A number of foreign heads of state were reportedly the targets of covert CIA assassination plans In the late 1950’s and 1960’s. Instant stew Several of the President's proposals brought instant reaction from critics, who claimed that the President would retain too much power, and that the Ford plan would endanger the constitutional rights of the citizenry. One of the criticized proposals was the recommendation that it be made a federal crime to leak secret information to the press about the “sources and methods” of gathering national security information. The most famous incidence of this type was the leaking of the “Pentagon Papers” by Daniel Ellsberg, a former Defense Department employee. These documents traced the history of United States involvement in the Vietnam War. Another controversial topic was Ford’s announcement that he would seek from Congress the authority to open the U.S. mails for the purposes of foreign intelligence. For the same purpose. Ford called upon the Congress to pass legislation which would specifically permit electronic surveillance of persons inside the United Sta*"s for national security reasons, with the approval of a judge. Foreign objects Ford also established a policy limiting the infiltration of groups to those organizations which are made up largely of foreign nations, or directly controlled by a foreign government. In addition, he barred such devious practices as burglary, the use of dangerous drugs on unsuspecting persons, and the illegal use of income-tax information. Similar guidelines are being prepared for the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) by Attorney General Edward Levi, who is expected to make his recommendations public very soon. In general, the President’s reorganization of the CIA will result in more centralization of power at the White House level, and will also make Bush the most powerful CIA chief ever. The prime example of this centralization of power is Ford’s refusal to agree to let the Congress in on covert operations before they happen, or to make the Congress part of the decision-making process. Ford said the main safeguard against an executive abuse of power would be the President’s accountability to the American people. There will be a DEBATE Tuesday, between the candidate for Director of Academic Affairs at 4 pm room 233 Norton This is also a regularly scheduled meeting of the ACADEMIC AFFAIRS TASK FORCE so representatives are expected to attend, as well as all interested students. Page two The Spectrum Monday, 23 February 1976 . . Spectrum Staff Writer Women’s liberation groups joined with the nationalist groups to defend China against the invading powers during World War II. In the civil war which followed, women’s liberation was temporarily put behind the liberation of the entire Chinese nation. After 1949, however, women’s struggles for education and careers resumed. In China today, contraceptives and family planning services, as well as day-care facilities, are free. Work outside the home is encouraged, and women now have a part in all of China’s industries. They are encouraged to speak out and become politically active, said Chan. Compared to the more “westernized” women of Hong Kong or Taiwan, said Chan, Chinese women are “sodall and politically equal.” China emphasizes that men and women are “different” but not “unequal.” The image of women that Chinese leaders hope to build is that of a strong, intelligent, revolutionary working for the liberation of all Women and minorities in China have made great strides toward equality since the Revolution of 1949, according to Dr. John Chan, leader of a Life Workshop held in Norton Hall this past Thursday. The workshop on “Women and Minorities in China” was part of the “Insights into China” series begun two weeks ago and offered jointly by Life Workshops and the Chinese Student Association. Life Workshops are free, non-credit courses offered by the Division of Student Affairs. Women’s traditional place in China was explored as background to a discussion of their role since the Revolution. Traditional Chinese women were taught obedience to men above all first to fathers or older brothers, next to husbands, and later to sons. Although women were otherwise ignored in Chinese literature, according to Chan, the downfall of each succeeding dynasty was somehow attributed to people. women. Ten percent of China’s population is made up of As in other cultures, contacts with Chinese minority including Mongols, Korean. groups, women were avoided during their menstrual period Tibetans, and various mountain tribes, said Dr. Chan. they birth. they giving times, when were At these or Communications are made difficult by the fact that were considered “polluted” or “unclean.” speaks its own dialect, and many also Women’s liberation in China began with a each group have their own system of writing.

The board’s action comes amidst mounting evidence that radioactive materials used by have been reactors transported through the city adequate safety without precautions. nuclear Approval of the ban has extended indefinitely the interim ban that the board imposed last summer, and has set the stage for a legal clash between the city and the federal Nuclear Regulatory Commision (NRC), which has threatened to challenge the ban in it wants the court because shipments resumed.

Before the temporary ban took effect, NRC was also licensing truck shipments of highly toxic radioactive wastes through some .of the most populated areas of the city. The wastes were transported inside huge, lead-lined casks, even though federal investigators had documented their previously vulnerability to collisions and leaks. Antinuclear movement Although these dangers have existed since the birth of the the industry, nuclear power “antinuclear” movement did not surface until a little more than a when year ago, consumer advocate Ralph Nader began publicizing studies by scientists which showed the extent to which the nuclear industry was operating unsafely. investigative researchers continued to turn up evidence of hazardous practices, antinuclear groups began attracting support from increasing numbers of As consumers en groups, and v i ronment aUst s, government officials. At roughly the same time last summer that the Board of Health imposed its temporary ban. President Ford signed into law a bill introduced by Congressman James Scheuer, Democrat of Queens, prohibiting of shipments further air plutonium into the United States until a new container, sturdy enough to withstand an air crash, could be developed. Not long afterward, the proposal to forever banish dangerous of shipments radioactive materials from the city’s streets and airways was drawn up by Dr. Leonard Solon, a physicist who heads the Health Department’s Bureau of Radiation Control. On November 6, the Board of Health had an open hearing to solicit public opinion on the proposed ban, and on January 15, approved that ban. Plutonium ban With the odds of having a nuclear catastrophe in New York considerably City now diminished, antinuclear groups plan to press for similar bans in population centers around the country. County Nassau Executive Ralph Caso has appointed a commission to study the feasibility of a ban throughout Nassau County, and reportedly plans to coordinate the project with Suffolk County officials. is Their concern understandable: if all five nuclear Hovering like a ghost over these plans, however, are the powerful and amply bankrolled pronuclear and the lobby, prospect of a long, drawn-out court battle between the city and the federal government. If the ban is stricken down in federal court in what may be a landmark test of the right of a local municipality to set its own standards of health and safety, much of the local antinuclear strategy could be In addition to these dangers, the absence of adequate security has increased the likelihood that a terrorist group could sabotage wastes or hijack plutonium and use it to fashion a crude atomic bomb. Not long ago, a graduate engineering student at radioactive planned now for the Massachusetts Institute of construction by the Long Island Technology, using data available (LILCO) are Lighting Company in many university libraries, was built, Nassau and Suffolk could, able to design a workable atomic within 20 years, become the site bomb within five weeks.

The forum with Ketter is open to all graduate students, and it may be opened to all interested members of the university community. Budget revision for UUAB The Sub Board Directors revised the budgets of many of the University Union Activities Board (UUAB) committees at an executive meeting last week. Major changes include a $4500 reduction in the Coffeehouse budget, $7,000 less for the Music Committee, and a $4000 cut from Film. Sub Board Treasurer Bruce Campbell explained that the affected committees “are just not pulling in the income to justify their [present] spending In other action, the Board amended its by-laws, charged Division Directors to begin advertising position openings in March and set up a committee to write a constitution for UUAB. The committee shall be composed of two Board members, three persons from UUAB and a Norton Hall staff member. A request from Women’s Voices for an additional $400 subsidy was denied. By unanimous vote, the Board changed the month of its annual meeting to elect new officers levels.” “This is the first time that this has been done,” explained Sub Board Executive Director Tom from May to April. This was done to provide some VanNortwick. “In the past everyone went on carry-over between the old officers and the new. spending his or her merry way until the end of the Beginning in March, all student positions in Sub year.

The brain area is filled with bongwater and though the pipe’s design is novel, its operation is similar to that of a common waterpipe. One of the most popular implements ever designed is a large wine decanter with a three inch funnel bowl and half inch rubber tubing. Even when filled with snow to mellow the smoke, it would leave even the hardiest partier with tears in his eyes and fire on his brain. The pipe consists of an 821 V£” cast iron elbow joint, a cardboard dummy rocket engine casing, and 15Vi" of 3/4” diameter electrical conduit. The carburetor is an air hose connector. All parts were received courtesy of Mobil Chemical Inc., Macedon, N.Y. In comparison to ordinary pipes, the peace Pipe’s stem is larger in proportion to the blowl, resulting in nearly 100 percent draw, and seven counts of manslaughter. Another pipe is make up of two fishbowls on a wooden stand with an aquarium pump in between. The pot is placed in one of the fishbowls, lit, and then covered. The other fishbowl is filled with liquid (peppermint schnapps recommended) and sealed. The smoke is pumped from one fishbowl, through the liquid in the other, back through the pump and forced down your throat. ‘The recyler’ is 100 percent efficient in that it wastes no smoke. “It’s a bong, a hookah, and a shotgun pipe all wrapped in one. It makes commercial mex work like Colubian. Its only drawbacks are that it’s a pain in the ass to clean, and you can’t eat it if the cops bust down your door,” a noted expert explained. by Cliff Dickson Staff Writer Spectrum Pot smokers across the country are being inundated with gadgets used exclusively for smoking marijuana, from instruments designed to subtly elevate the user’s consciousness, to those that beat him into submission. From the simple corn cob pipe and rolling papers of the past, students have progressed to various complicated and often inspired means of marijuana consumption. They run the gamut from expensive electrical contraptions that do everything short of performing unnatural acts with the owner to an apple pierced in three places. But whether store-bought or homemade, the purpose of the devices is the same. Bong and toker Among the new breed of paraphernalia, commercially manufactured and available at local head shops, the bong and the toker are the most popular. The bong is a cylindrical acrylic tube with a small bowl attached. A finger hole is punctured in the side of the tube to act as a carburetor, delaying smoke inhalation until the bowl has been emptied and the chamber filled with smoke. A wate coolant is employed to ensure smoother smoking. The Toker (a registered brand trademark) is also a water cooled pipe, operating on the same carburetor principle as the bong. Doctors and killers What about other pipes? An ornament from a psychiatrist’s office has been implemented for illicit purposes. ‘The Doctor’ is a ceramic skull intended for use as a candle holder. It has been ingeniously modified for dope smoking. Where a candle once might have been, now Dr. Death And then there is ‘Dr. Death.’ Part chemistry equipment, various pipe components, and Bic pens topped with a brass liberty bell-bowl, Dr. Death has all the features. From top to bottom, it displays a host of removable bowls from which to choose, a stash chamber, a combination carburetor-shotgun, plus the sport option decal (skull and crossbones). The only negative aspect of this pipe is that none of my roommates have gone to class since I built it. ‘The mong’ is an altered pretzel can. The can was punctured and pipe parts were inserted. The key to the apparatus is the gas mask attached to the toking end, which acts in conjunction with the water coolant to allow more violent hits simultaneously through the nose and mouth.

The theme of the rally, organized by the Revolutionary, Student Brigade is, “We won’t pay more for less.” SASU tables its dismissal decision The Student Association of the State University (SASU) has tabled its decision on the dismissal of Executive Vice, President Betty Pohanka until its March 13 membership meeting. According to SASU Executive Committee Member Frank Jackalone, “Pohanka was not a student in the State University (SUNY) system when she was elected. She could not have legally run for office.” The dispute over Pohanka’s Executive Vice Presidency extends to the Student Assembly, an organization created by the SUNY Board of Trustees to which all SUNY schools automatically belong. SASU is a coalition of student governments in the SUNY system, whose membership is voluntary. Each SASU member school pays dues and is also member of the Student Assembly. Non SUNY students are ineligible to hold either a delegate or officer position in the Student Assembly or in SASU. Pohanka has already been dismissed as an officer in the Student Assembly, but due to legal technicalities has not been dismissed by SASU. According to Jackalone, an attempt was made to “uncertify” Pohanka’s election to SASU, but according to the organization’s by-laws the Executive Committee cannot declare an election “uncertified.” The decision on Pohanka’s non-student status and budgetary concerns will be the primary subjects of the next SASU membership meeting. a COMMUTER BREAKFAST Wednesday , Feb. 25th 8:00 — 12 noon Norton 233 Free coffee, tea and hot chocolate Doughnuts only 10c Disco the latest dance craze by Jerry Rosoff Spectrum Staff Writer "Gotta dance, gotta dance Gene Kelly in Singin' in the Rain This country, as well as many others, has been hit by the Disco Dance craze. It is this new craze that is once again filling the discotheques, and bringing dancing back to the couples rather than to the individual. Tom Ralabate, instructor of the Disco-Dance Workshop at this University, views the early 60’s as the beginnings of the Disco scene. It all began with Chubby Checker and the Twist. According to Ralabate, it was this that signaled the end of “jitterbugging M and the beginning of a new era in dance. “With jitterbugging you had to know the steps, and how to follow,” said Ralabate. “Disco offered total freedom of movement.” This was Disco in it’s early stages, a time when the Twist, the Monkey, the Jerk, and the Swim were taking the nation by storm. It was a time when parents were openly critical of the new dances, while privately practicing them. Disco is quite different now. It slowly progressed and became more sophisticated and structured. Touching and dancing with an actual partner, which was virtually non-existant in the early years of Disco, is now its basic thrust, Ralabate feels that the first dance to re-introduce physical contact came with the Bump. Ken Grubb, manager of Unde Sam’s, one of Buffalo’s top Disco’s, disagrees slightly with Ralabate. Grubb feels that the new Disco, which began in this area around November of 1974 started with the Hustle. Which ever view is more accurate, the Bump and the Hustle both brought about the resurgence of partner and line dances. Actual Disco dancing requires “two to tango” 'ith a of body contact. Most dancers are .. welcoming this change, and many wonder why it didn’t come about sooner. Don .Tomasulo, drummer with the grouj) Goodfeel which has been appearing in many of the clubs around town, has noticed the partner dances mentioned by Grubb and Ralabate. “Most of th4 requests we get are for songs to which you can da the Bump and Hustle.” He has also seen a change ifl the attendance of many clubs. Before the suddefl shift to Disco dancing, mostly singles would make the dance scene. Now, more and more couples ait apparing in discotheques and dance bars. Grubb sees the change in dancing styles as a “natural progression” within the culture. Not all pop music can be considered Disco. “Disco music is more orchestrated” than regular pop musk, said Grubb. “It is much freer flowing, not herky-jerky like hard rock. It’s happy type music.” Disco music has an Afro-Cuban rhythm, according to Ralabate. “You can feel the beat and tempo of the music.” In his workshop, Ralabate follows a different approach rather than just simply teaching the basic steps, beginning his classes with warm-up exercises consisting of various body movements. Most of these movements can be considered Disco. The Workshop has been so successful that a second one has been added, with the possibility of even a third. The classes might soon be getting into jitterbugging. Right now they are working on a line dance called Busstop. Disco still has a long way to go in its development. Grubb feels the next step will be music with a Latin-American beat. Louie Druth, a student at this University, disagrees with Grubb. He feels that Disco has reached its peak this year, although he does not see its decline in the near future.

Page seven �The answer is yes EditPrial To the Editor. a An ugly disturbance took place 'Friday night at the Parliament and Funkadelics concert in Clark Hall, when an estimated 1000 people forced their way into the capacity-filled gym. The gate-crashers some of whom were ticket holders broke a door and several windows and uprooted a water cooler (which eventually flooded the basement due to the broken pipes). Luckily, no arrests were made, there were no reported injuries, and the property damage was relatively minor. Campus Security should be commended for refraining from any rash action that might have inflamed the situation even further. In the aftermath of this unfortunate incident, a number of questions deserve to be answered. The Norton Hall Ticket Office, which had sole control of tickets, sold 1800 tickets the capacity of Clark Hall. Yet when 1800 people were admitted and the doors of the gym were closed, there were still ticket holders waiting outside. Why? Were people let in without tickets? Were tickets counterfeited, as has happened at events here before? If so, by whom? Was there money pocketed by someone as a result of this fiasco? The damage to the gym was certainly uncalled for. Yet, it is easy to understand the anger of those who weren't admitted to the event, despite having tickets. Why was there not sufficient security provided by the concert promoters (UUAB and the Black Student Union) to control the situation? There are a lot of questions that have to be answered here, and some of them will undoubtedly be asked by University officials already somewhat hostile to student activities. UUAB and BSU should start answering them. - - — , Boycott Cavoges SA officials sanctioned a boycott of Cavages Record Stores at a meeting of the Student Senate last Wednesday. Carl Cavage, also known as the Howard Hughes of the record industry for his refusal to answer to students personally, is presently suing the University over what he sees as unfair competition from the Record Coop. His attempt to obtain a temporary injunction which would have closed the Coop until the case came to court failed last week. As long as Cavage feels so adamant about continuing his relentless attack on the Record Coop, he does not deserve one penny of student business at any of his stores in Buffalo. We ask all members of the University community to boycott Cavages Record Stores so that the unpleasant proceedings that Carl Cavage started cost him more than the price of * Is there a need f6» a state*supported School of Architecture and Environmental Design alt Buffalo? According to the President’s Committee on Academic Planning, there is not. Of course, the Committee is generous enougH\td note that Buffalo has the pnly such School in the''SUNY system. Aside uniqueness, of from this recognition of and of SUNYAB’s School Environmental Design, the Committee has little that is complimentary to say. Somehow this is not surprising considering the errors of fact and the assumptions which are contained in the Committee s recommendation. The errors of fact in the recommendation are numerous. Let us address some of the more obvious. The Committee comments on the critical accreditation review in 1971. It should be noted that soon after that review, the national accrediting committee ceased all review activities in order to re-evaluate its own criteria of accreditation. Also, soon after that review, the founding Dean of SAED resigned. During 1973 and part of 1974 the School functioned under an Acting Dean. It is not surprising that no major change would be initiated until a new Dean was appointed. Since the appointment of that new Dean in 1974, there has been an almost continuous hiring freeze within the University 1 Some important questions • m* *' The system. The Committee also notes that student demand for the programs within SAED has remained at a rather constant, low level. This is contrary to the enrollment figures and our own experience of class size. In the last three years the enrollments within SAED have at least doubled. Even greater growth would have been possible had the faculty been larger and, thus, able to provide adequate education to additional students. The Committee’s report notes in several places that the SAED does not define its mission in traditional ways. In one particular instance the Committee indicates that the proposed expansion is in these “non-traditional” areas. Factually, the vast majority of the proposed expansion is in precisely those areas which might be considered “traditional.” However, it is this very ascription of “traditional” that reveals the Committee’s questionable, and most damaging assumptions. -c School'of Architecture knd Environmental Design does, indeed, define ih mission in terms of and the relationship between the built environment relationship of this impact and the human behavior on the design process. This "is not a "traditional definition of architecture if what is meant by “traditional” is those ideas which were prevalent and * » accepted in the late nlnteenth century. It is likely that if the School were to define its mission in terms of what the Committee seems to think of as “traditional” the School would not long maintiln its creditability with either the profession or the academic community. In fact, if SAED were to so define its mission it would be accused of ignoring the developments over the last 76 years in many fields such as sociology, psychology, urban planning, urban anthropology, geography, civil engineering, mechanical engineering and preventative medicine (to name only a few). The very classification of the School of Architecture and Environmental Design in the PLastic and Performing Arts indicates the magnitude of the Committee’s assumption. It would be hoped 1976 architecture, planning, and that in environmental design would resemble sculpture as much as modern medicine resembles the medicine show or modern chemistry resembles alchemy. Thus, we return to the original question of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning: Is there a need for a state-supported School of Architecture and Environmental Design? As long as such a School can legitimately be classified as a Plastic Art the answer is clearly “NO!”. However, if abo t Architecture and talking we are Environmental Design which address the problems and the needs of our urban areas, of Buffalo and New York City, of Talbott Mall and Pruit Igo, then there is clearly a very high order need for a State and Schoool of Architecture supported Environmental Design, and a strong, innovative one at that!!!

The Hull-Yearley Committee blames the Department for the absence of a permanent chairman without reporting that the Department has no role in setting up search committees. Furthermore, the Department and a previous search committee both agreed on a candidate only to have that candidate vetoed by the The 1976 report furthermore our student-faculty ratio is higher than number of departments including History, Linguistics and Social Work in 1974-1975. The Committee undoubtedly equates student a interest with student demonstrations. Black Studies enrollment is about the same as it has always been; the difference is the lack of clamor, which would occur if students deduced that certainly demonstrations are, in Black Studies, the true sign of interest. They tell us that one-third of our faculty publishes regularly. This requires a many-sided administration. A special kind of double jeopardy is being response but a fraction of it would be to note that played here. The Committee tells us that we did not our faculty has a number of artists who exhibit, give and and write dramatic produce provide information to it, which is patently untrue concerts, in the first place, but this gives them little reason to productions.

This is in response to Stuart Gudowitz’s letter to the editor printed on February 18. Granted, no one in his/her right mind would justify a geography or astronomy professor teaching such fallacies as Mr. Gudowitz mentions. Nor would any rational person equate exact sciences with subjective studies such as philosophy or politics. These subjects don’t have established, indisputable facts, but many views, none of which is the perfect answer for every problem. The reason for the existance of such departments is that there are people interested in these fields. What right do people of Mr. Gudowitz’s dictatorial way of thinking have to hamper studies, of which they don’t even have any comprehension? The appeal for academic freedom is not, as Mr. Gudowitz implies, an appeal for objective truth. It is, rather, an appeal for freedom to educate one’s self in the manner and field which he/she sees fit. Is this a “thoroughly ridiculous notion”?

Thomas Jefferson (one of the founders of our society, Mr. Gudowitz) believed that three things are necessary for people to govern themselves properly: freedom to vote, freedom of the press and education them with the great ideas of the past. Surely Karl Marx was as great a thinker as John Locke and Mao Tse-tung as great as James Madison. People should be exposed to all views so that they can decide which philosophy or political theory they will believe. This is much healthier than blindly following one school of thought for lack of sufficient knowledge of any other. The Bill of Rights guarantees our right to free speech yet Mr. Gudowitz would have the University silence people with whom he disagrees. It seems that the Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges aren’t nearly as incompatible with the bases of our society as Mr. Gudowitz is. providing David Molliken No relation To the Editor.

With knowledge comes This is in reply to Stuart Gudowitz and his letter on academic freedom. It is not the teaching of unpopular or radical philosophies, it is the right to a forum on which to examine any idea. It is not the propounding of fallacies as facts or the search for objective truth, facts are objective but truth is relative to man. Academic freedom is responsible. It does not advocate the destruction of property or the encroachment on the rights of others. It does allow the theory of Marx to be discussed. It does allow the attempt of a new and experimental proposal. Academic freedom is the search for truth. It is the presumption that in any circumstance, a truth exists to be found.

I will admit that a person should be judged on merit and that association with a particular group shouldn’t matter. But in 1976 it does indeed matter. So as a fair publication, I hope you will make clear this coincidence and not just ignore it. After all, as the most respected paper on campus, you could very easily make or break a candidate. Your main point was the abolition of two Colleges. From your use of derogatory labels it is evident you have no understanding of them. With knowledge comes understanding. Without knowledge what they represent, you wish to destroy them. Why? Examining new ideas isone of the most important functions of the University. It has been so since universities came into existance. When John Locke and Jean Jacques Rosseau wrote about the dignity of man and equal rights ij went squarely across the grain of those who believed in the divine right of kings. But because they had the forum to present those ideas, Thomas Jefferson was able to write the Declaration of Independence. The chance that some invaluable idea will be brought forth by one of the Colleges must not disappear because of petty politics in the administration.

Mr. Prince tries to picture the fighting as being primarily religious, and attempts to heap the blame on those allegedly perpetual evildoers, the Palestinians. First, to describe the strife in Lebanon in terms of “Christian” and “Muslim” is grossly inadequate. The extreme right-wing Phalange party in Lebanon is composed primarily of Maronites who do not represent all Christians. Orthodox Christians have by and large stayed out of the fighting, and many Christians fought against the Phalange. The civil war took a religious coloring because the Christians are, on the whole, the more privileged economically and politically whereas the Muslims, on the whole, are not. Muslims and Christians did not fight to further the cause of religion, or because of religion, or about To the editor: In the letter column of the \Wednesday, February 18 issue of The Spectrum appeared a letter signed by four people who were, at one time, members of Dr. Charles Mitchell’s English 326M Shakespeare class. They signed their names to a letter condemning Dr. Mitchell for “blatant sexism and teaching incompetency.” I can but marvel at the intelligence, or lack thereof, of anyone who could admit to holding such obviously ridiculous views. The sexist views of the “destructive, low bestial, and vile qualities of women” are not Dr. Mitchell’s personal opinion. He has gone on record in the literature as violently opposing the idolatrizing of Hamlet throughout the Western world. He has compared Coriolanus to Milton’s Satan. Those sexist attitudes are the opinions of the lead characters of the only two plays we had treated in class up to that point Hamlet and Coriolanus. In treating one-sided plays about obsessions, what else can the professor say but what the obsessions are and where, in his opinion, they come from? The four complainers also state that Dr. Mitchell presented this “harangue;: in an “offensive and vulgar manner.” I can understand how certain orthodox Christians might take exception to Dr. Mitchell’s favorite exclamation of disgust, but it is, at worst, profanity. It is certainly not an obscenity. The rest of the class, approximately 24 students, had no difficulty separating Dr. Mitchell’s personal opinions from those of the characters in the plays his constant use of that favorite exclamation of disgust should have been enough for those four as well, if they had been listening, which I doubt, considering that they were usually conducting a private discussion in the farthest corner of the room. The four ex-students state that they believe Dr. Mitchell to be “obsessed” with the “biased, bawdy attitudes in Shakespeare.” Today in class, after having read their letter. Dr. Mitchell asked the class who was obsessed. The consensus of opinion was that the four students were far more obsessed than Dr. Mitchell. We have moved on to King Lear since they left.

The following story, from an article in last month’s New York magazine, is a true account of one such witness and his ensuing alias. “Paul Maris believed that fate, and the government, had given him a chance few men get the opportunity for a new life,’’ said Fred Graham, a law correspondent for CBS. But the Paul Maris story became a real life nightmare. It all started in Congress in 1969, with a massive piece of legislation called the “Organized Crime Control Act.” The bill included nine chapters with controversial provisions to strengthen the inquisitorial powers of grand juries, increase the penalties for habitual offenders, and reduce witnesses’ protection against self incrimination. held a legitimate job in his life. Much to his surprise, he was contacted by the government and asked to testify against two of New Jersey’s most sought-after mafiosi. In return, he would receive probation for his latest criminal offense. The government assured Zelmanowitz that they would supply him and the members of his family with aliases to insure protection against rebuttles by the mafia, who were not likely to forget his name. He agreed to testify and the two mobsters were convicted. — " Faulty alias “Nobody paid much attention to the chapter entitled “Title V: Protected Facilities for Housing Government Witnesses,’’ claimed Graham. “All it did was authorize expenditures of funds to build or rent safe houses where witnesses could be protected by U.S. marshalls until it was safe for them to leave.” ‘Not foolproof It was then the Justice Department’s turn to fulfill its half of the bargain. After rejecting aliases of various backgrounds and lifestyles, Zelmanowitz finally accepted the role of Captain Paul J. Maris, U.S. Army, Retired. He was also given a transcript of his full life’s history. The same was done for the rest of his family. Zelmanowitz was told that the had arranged government background documentation so that if anyone looked behind his story, it would check out. told him “Nobody that the Justice [Zelmanowitz] Department had decided not to provide its relocation witnesses with foolproof backgrounds,” said Graham. “Gerald Zelmanowitz was a ripe subject for the Justice Department’s early experiments in bartering new identities.” At this point in time, the government was issuing 500 aliases each year, or about 1 Vi per day. Most of them went out to hoodlums and gangsters like Zelmanowitz. The bill quickly and quietly became law. Gerald Martin Zelmanowitz, who later took the name Paul Saved company In March of 1970, Paul Maris Maris, was a high school dropout from Brooklyn and a three-time left the east coast for San convicted criminal who had never Francisco with his new identity. After a relatively short period in which Maris couldn’t find a job, he was hired by a shaky businessman named Alvin Du skin, owner of a women’s dress manufacturing business. The company was on the brink of bankruptcy but Maris, who had a good position, worked hard at keeping it alive. He and his father-in-law bought $5000 worth of stock and brought the company out of the red. Maris then persuaded the Creative Capital Corporation to advance Du skin’s company $400,000. Creative Capital soon bought out Alvin Duskin and in January 1972, it created the Paul Maris Company. Maris became a millionaire almost overnight. He was a dynamic, young, intelligent businessman. The shrewdness and cunning he had learned on the streets proved beneficial in the business world. Free with money His only fault may have been that he was a little too loose with the company’s money. So Milton Stewart, an executive of the Creative Capital Corporation, became suspicious of Maris after learning that he loaned $2 million to a former hood with no business experience. Stewart hired Hal a renowned private Lipset, investigator, to check up on Maris’ After much background. searching, they found the truth. Paul Maris was a phony. “Paul Maris’ problems were an exaggerated version of what was happening to some others in the Witness Relocation Program,” said Graham. “Maris was oblivious to it at the time, but he was stumbling on the flaws in the system, which, coupled with flaws within himself, “would eventually strike him down.” Stewart fired Paul Maris, who in return filed suits against Stewart and Upset for $5 million each. This was a great mistake because it spurred the two defendants to further research. Identity revealed At the same time, Maris was trying to buy another clothing company in hopes of competing with the Paul Maris Co. Just when he was ready to dose the deal, his world fell apart. Maris’ attorney refused to represent him after Stewart’s attorney told him of Maris’ real identity. Stewart also said he would soon declare Maris a phony in public. This was the end. Maris had to go into hiding for fear of his life. His alias was shot. His new name SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS VACATION AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

The Spectrum . Monday, 23 February 1976 “Our passing was very sloppy,” Thomas said. “Everybody wants to stand still and get the ball and shoot. We have to move. When we move, we do fine. Defensively, we had no problem.” Indeed, it was the Bulls defense which got them off to an 8—0 start. Guard Clyde O’Malley defense, the Bulls’ sparked stealing the ball three times during the game’s first four minutes leading to a couple of fast-break baskets. “It’s just anticipation being in the right spot at the right time,” O’Malley said. O’Malley finished with eight steals, running her total in 11 games to 64. — Passing problems After Buffalo’s flying start, the offense bogged down and for a while, it looked as if Fredonia would make a game of it. “I tried to take the ball into the center to suck in their zone,” said O’Malley, the Bulls’ quarterback. “But today, they [the Buffalo players] were standing with their player instead of trying to .beat them.” Thomas felt that some of the Bulls offensive problems were due to Buffalo’s new starting line-up, which caused some unfamiliarity between the players. “Marilyn Dellwardt is an excellent player in a zone defense,” Thomas said about Patty Dolan’s replacement in the starting line-up. “I wanted her to get some experience and playing time.” —Kalugin outside shooting, kept the game as close as it was. ‘There were only three minutes in the first half when 1 played decently,” Trapper said, and those weren’t during her scoring spree at the end of the half. Thomas claimed that Trapper was hesitant for fear of fouling out. “When you start to think, you don’t flow and you don’t play well,” Thomas said. Trapper agreed, saying, “All the time I try to be aggressive. They call the fouls on me but don’t reciprocate. I haven’t been in too many games [mentally] and I don’t know why.” Led by O’Malley, Buffalo hurriedly put the game out of reach in the second half. Several times, she stole the ball, raced past most of the Blue Devils’ defenders like they were standing still, and then passed off for a But it didn’t seem to matter what the reason was, since Trapper got hot and scored 16 of Buffalo’s last 23 points in the first half, to give Buffalo a 37—22 lead. “And she’s not playing that well,’’ lay-uri. Thomas commented. Only Trapper.gave most of the credit Fredonia’s Carol Leonard, who for her fine performance to had 11 points with some hot O’Malley. “Clyde’s passes made the difference,” said the Buffalo center. “If she can get the ball to me when I’m open, I usually can score.” “Ann complements my passing,” O’Malley noted. “We well really communicated After Buffalo had a tonight.” comfortable lead, O’Malley took time out from her passing to take 3 few outside shots, and hit them both. “1 feel comfortable with my shot. Some girls have been shooters for a long time so I usually let them shoot, but if I’m open, I expect to get the ball as much as anyone else.” With the decision about whether or not Buffalo will receive a bid to the New York State Division II Championships expected sometime this week, Buffalo takes on Houghton tonight for its final regular season game.

To qualify, each swimmer had to beat a certain time at least once this year, or achieve a certain number of points in diving. - OH WRITE; 392 WARDMAN RD. BUFFALO. N Y. 14217 •• — SUMMER CHARTERS ROM » Well, the experts here at TVie Spectrum goofed in last week’s Sports Quiz. We asked who was the last male American speed skater to win an Olympic Gold Medal before this year. The correct answer was Terry McDermott, who did it in 1964 at Innsbruck. However, Irving Jaffe did win at Lake Placid in 1932. Today’s questions have been researched a little better. Defeat Fredonia mermaids - . Sports Quiz Women swimmers The Buffalo women’s swimming team raised its record to 4—6 this year with a smashing 104—24 victory over Fredonia, Thursday night at Clark Hall. The Bulls were led by sophomore Mary Drozda, who won three events and contributed to Buffalo’s victorious 200 meter medley relay. Overall, Buffalo won first place in all events except the optional c r, diving. • **■ “Fredonia’s team isn’t as strong as it has been. It’s a re-building year for them,” said Buffalo coach Barbara Sevier. It was Buffalo’s first win over the Blue Devils in three years. “Our kids are mjich stronger this year. They all looked good,” Sevier continued. Several of the Buffalo mermaids turned in their best performances of the year, including co-captain Faith Malecki in the 50 meter and 100 meter freestyle, and Buffalo’s other co-captain Michele Auricchio in the 100 meter backstroke, liz Repaski, who has been beaten only once this year, turned in two individual wins the ■ ■ m Hurry & Sign-Up Limited space Deadline Feb. 24th Sponsored by the ILC & I EL I — — GRADUATE STUDENTS: Hop on the shuttle bus Wed. afternoon, Feb. 25th by 3:00 to be sure you get a seat in the Conference Theater Norton Hall at 4 pm to ask your questions of President Ketter at the Open Forum on Graduate Education at SUNY/’B - Monday, 23 February 1976 The Spectrum Page thirteen . . �Page fourteen The Spectrum .

Backpage �w * S «* -* £ SA ELECTION Candidatesstatements President and the second on the relationship of U.S. Foreign Policy to Unemployment. The second goal would be to regain control over the Mandatory Activity Fee, and if that proved impossible, the elimination of that fee. The third would be to try and improve the quality of The Spectrum. The fourth goal, though mainly symbolic, would be the removal of Robert Ketter as President of this University. 2. My reason for running is that I believe a progressive student movement is not only possible, but necessary. For the last year, the present Student Association has, at best, been ineffectual, wasteful and immature; at worst, reactionary and opportunist. I’d like to change that. 3. Qualifications: Pm a senior whose first attendance here dates back to 1967. My political experience also dates back to anti-war activities in that year. It includes President of the U.B. Vets Club 1972, three years in Vietnam Veterans Against the War and Secretary of this year’s club. My journalism experience includes The Spectrum contrib. 1970, co-editor of the Vets Club quarterly. Column Left 1972-3, student John J. Boncek Briefly state your qualifications for the position of President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coining year. I am running for the position of Student Association President because I am totally fed up with the way the SA is currently being run! Why do I have such a negative attitude? Let’s look at the track record of the current SA administration. Each one of us is paying $67 annually to the SA in order to maintain student activities on campus; that is, the SA collects over $800,000 and can disburse it as they please. How does our SA divide the money? We all remember the “budget-time” circuses of the past few years. Clubs and organizations constantly “stacked” the SA in order to obtain greater A claiming funding. groups, few importance, fought extensively for more and more money even when they had more than their fare share of mandatory fee money! The SA was dominated by a handful of students a small group of students were, in effect, deciding how your money would be spent! Student input was kept at a minimal level. You ask “How does that affect me?” Consider the following figures: It takes over 10000 mandatory fees to run the SA. The entire fee of over 1000 students is channeled directly into 205 Norton Hall and that’s as far as it gets! Close to $10,000 is spent on SASU, with little benefit to the average U.B. student. Many clubs, especially “minority” clubs, are taking far too large a piece of the SA-fee pie. Is this “democracy in action?” What can be done about this waste and —continued on page 2— — — — —continued on paga 2— i Ian Donohue Daniel Schemer I am a member of the Young Socialists. As the only socialist running, I am the only one who sees the situation this University is in in proper perspective. Most importantly, I am the only one who understands how we must fight the cuts we all face. Capitalism today is in a grave crisis. It is the same crisis which led in the 1930’s to depression, fascism and world war., The capitalist class is preparing for the most bitter attacks upon the working class. In the face of this, for students to try to fight as students is absurd and impossible. We must fight as part of the working class which is being pushed into massive struggles for its rights. Public education is indeed a right. It was won in bitter, often bloddy struggles, in which workers even lost their lives so that we could go to school. It is a right we will fight to keep. The Student Association must function in a dual role. It must continue to provide the student services it does now. The SA as representative of the largest body of people at this University must take a lead in righting the budget cuts. The SA must seek to unite with all sections of this University grad students. University professionals, night students, the faculty, social service employees, etc. to form a University Assembly to make all policy decisions affecting this University. Not the administration or some “college council’’ of businessmen. Obviously, its first task would be to stop the budget cuts.

The office of Student Association President requires two important insights; one must know the workings of student University government and the administration; and yet not lose sight of student feelings. As Director of Student Affairs for the Student Association, I have spent the past year helping students on a one-to-one basis, as well as working on many projects dealing with student rights and problems. I am also the only student member of U.S.’s College Council, which deals with all major policy decisions in this University, thus giving me the valuable experience and knowledge on the many issues facing the students attending U.B. In the past year, I have witnessed the virtual “clamming-up” of Student Association. Decisions affecting students on this campus were made behind closed doors with virtually no student input; positions on issues were decided not by what is best for the students but rather by what is best for SA. My major goal as President will be to open up Student Association. Its focus must be changed so that it represents and not governs students. I hope printing to accomplish these goals by newsletters, and by holding forums, referenda and surveys on all major issues, thereby assuring input and direction from the students on this campus. Do you think the Student Association, as it is presently structured, can ever be a truly representative body which actively —continued on page 2— •" Darid Shapiro Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Prtadent, the reasons you arc running, and your goals for the coming I*".

While serving on the Executive Committee this year, I noticed how short sighted and spasmodic Student Association can be. Issues should not be met with on the spur of the moment. We must research the problem, make sure that the responsible bodies have time to deliberate, and plan the SA response. Problems that occurred had a habit of being dealt with by “knee-jerk” reactions. Advocate is running on a platform calling for responsibility and effectiveness for student government. We must not be afraid to negotiate when we have to nor should we shy away from demonstrating massive student support. The main factor is that one must apply reason to the situation and not stumble blindly into any confrontation that can prove to be counterproductive. I also feel that it is time to move away from the denouncing previous rhetoric administrations and instead use this accrued knowledge of the past to temper decisions of the future. Let’s face it, when for example a building is expanded, the intelligent carpenter does not tear down the original structure but adds upon and thus improves the entire structure.

A sample list of past activities is not necessarily indicative of the abilities needed for successful leadership. What I consider as basic qualifications are often intangible and difficult to define; If questioned along the lines of curreni and prior position* of responsibility, I can cite a record of leadership beginning as student body president of my high school, in Buffalo, I was Chairman of Model Cities Cultural and Educational Program and received a citation from Mayor Makowski for my current achievements in this program.

Defend your position. How would you make (he SA less bureaucratic? determining actually As for University-wide policy, my initial response would be no. One must take into account that SA is not, and never has been, ultimately responsible for college policy. It is within our power to allocate activity funds, but by decisions such as the hiring and firing of faculty, social and academic rules and regulations and other light important relevant decisions are officially outside of SA’s jurisdiction. The rationale most frequently cited for placing such decisions beyond our immediate reach is that, as students, we lack the foresight and experience necessary for determining the proper methods and fundamental reasons for a university system. This leads us to the respect portion of this question, and it is this respect that must be established before our voices are truly heard. If only a minority of us actively involve ourselves, it can readily be said we don’t respect our own opinions, and can, not so surprisingly, expect a negative response to our demands. I fervently believe that SA can be a representative body, but a prerequisite of this representation is an informal and active constituency. We cannot represent a student body that is uninterested and inactive. How can I, as chief representative of U.B. students, claim to speak for the majority when the majority of students fail to speak for themselves. Once we begin to take stock in our own futures, the respect we most definitely deserve, will most certainly follow as a matter of course. A popular promise nowadays is aimed towards simplifying bureaucracies. An is the popular program equally restructuring of said bureaucracy along lines. supposedly simpler some the Unfortunately, we often poor attribute reasons and causative performance to the more obvious flaws, such as a mind building bureaucracy.

Defend your position. How would you make the SA less bureaucratic? I am not a skeptic of the SA Constitution. In the area of academics,“it has been responsible for the reunion of departmental clubs and the SA, providing inroads for the first time in many cases into departmental decision making. No assembly of any single constituency, though, can hold the claim to determine University-wide policy. Only by a workable of students, faculty, and congress administrators can one ever hope to legitimately set University wide standards. Making SA respected by all groups is a different matter. We lose the respect of faculty and administration by shooting off our mouths when we don’t know what we’re saying; we lose the respect of students when we argue among ourselves and fail to arrive with any concrete gains. To counteract this is not all that impossible be armed with facts and deal effectively with the administration and move away from student infighting.

SA must be the advocate of maintaining Student services. While remaining in the forefront during this controversy, Student Association must work on a united front with every other organization affected by the administration’s dictates. We must use all resources available, including legal action, to insure the existence of services. Every avenue must be explored such as contacting local legislators, involving parents (remember, they’re taxpayers and consumers too) and using SASU to pressure officials in Albany. We cannot afford to be caught unawares in any possible dilemma.

Defend your position. How would you make the SA less bureaucratic? Yes, but only if the Executive Committee makes the commitment to bring SA back to the students. This year the Senate and the Task Forces were virtually non-existent, thus making the Executive Committee the major policy making body. If this situation is reversed and input and involvement is encouraged, then SA can be a truly representative body. In order to gain the respect of the faculty and administration, the respect of the students must be gained first. This can be done by involving all students in the decision making process. I would make SA less bureaucratic by clearly defining and simply explaining each SA position. This would enable any student to know exactly where to go with problems or complaints. is presently administration The many student services and questioning activities funded with mandatory student fees.

Services are an important part of the University experience, and are a right of U.B. students, and a right of students across the state. The position of Executive Vice President requires both knowledge of student government and an ability to work with people in large and small groups. My knowledge, of student government and the workings of this University have come from being involved in SA for two years as an Assemblyman and a Senator, and from y present experiences as President of the Inter-Residence Council (IRC). The Executive Vice President serves as Chairperson of the Student Senate and the financial Assembly, as well as being a member of various SA committees. I feel I have gained the necessary experience Ihrough my term as Chairman of the IRC Main Body Council, and as Director of the Residenl Program for the 1975 Summer freshman Orientation, aside from having served on numerous committees in IRC and SA since coming to U.B. I’m running because I am far from satisfied w ith -(he present operations of the SA and University administrations. Both seem to strive on closed-door back-stabbing systems. My major goal is to expose and change these systems, by making students, and not politics, the major priority of SA. Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which presently compete for power in the Senate? In order to make the Senate the most powerful branch of student government, it must he shown to the administration and students that it is a truly responsive body. To make this a reality, I propose to start by moving the Senate meetings back to Haas Lounge, where there are no closed doors to keep people out. The next step is input. At present, even if a student should wander into a meeting, he or she must scream for recognition, only to be intimidating, an , by answered microphone-amplified voice. 1 will set up another microphone on the floor, and set aside publicised time on the agenda to air student grievances; answers will come on the spot. Senators will be given equal responsibility in this way for helping people on an individual level; the result is student faith in SA through personal assistance, and proof to the administration that SA solicits input, is responsive and representative of student needs. As for unifying special interests in the Senate, there exist simple solutions. The Senate, as a result of the new constitution, is made.up of fewer,special interest groups. The present* battles arc. the result of conflict, between the Senate and the Executive Committee.

As an at-large Senator elected through the dorms, a member of the Finance Committee, Financial Assembly and the Student Activities and Services Task Force, I have become an interested and competent representative. Also, I was elected to the Student Athletic Review Board and was just recently appointed to the Food Service Committee. My main reason for running for Executive Vice President is I know 1 can relate to all the different interest groups in this school. I won’t represent a small minority of students, as being elected at-large, I am responsible to all. 1 want real change in this school. Unless this new administration makes the right decisions, we stand to lose all of our services. We must move ahead, refusing to give ground as our backs are already against the wall. I have five major goals for this administration which stresses democratic changes. There is a definite need for an open, honest administration. The SA must be open to all and no Senator or student should feel alienated because of the cliques that in the past hindered outside people from getting involved. An open democratic administration can’t function if the Executive Committee has access to all information and doesn’t release it. 1 would like to see the referendum for a football team voted on. Then we could move on to more important issues. Establishment of a better rapport with The- Spectrum is a must. There h$s been a running battle between these two powerful groups and it is in our best interest to resolve it. We will not compfohiise dn 6ut student services. I will not sway from this policy. , * Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to make the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which 1 presently compete for power in the Senate? The Student Senate can become the most powerful branch of SA only if the Executive Committee decides to work with the Senate. In the past, the Executive Committee has relegated the Senate to a position requiring a rubber stamp of its proposals. Information will never be a problem in administration. Senators should not have to be private eyes in search of information. Senators must have mass backing in elections. Unless people come out of their apathetic shells and vote, the SA will always be accused of being run by a my minority. We must have working Senators. We need doers not talkers. If forced. 1 will play truant officers and make sure Senators come to meetings or resign to allow room for people willing to work. Freeloaders must be purged from SA. We will take surveys to determine student needs and we will follow that guideline. I will institute an SA newsletter all undergrads of the Senate’s work. Students must know who is voting for what issues, if there is going to be between effective communication representatives and constituents. We will have nothing to hide so why not keep everyone informedThe creation of a student complaint bureau is a program much needed here at U.B. A non-partisan U.B. can unify the Senate into a cohesive unit. I have worked for the Better Business Bureau of N.Y. and know of its strength. Assume the administration would not allow UUAB, CAC, and IRC to show any more “popular” movies on campus because of formal complaints from local theatre owners of unfair competition. What would you do? The first action 1 would take is to check the validity of the remarks by the administration. Next I would hear the gripes of the local theatre owners. Then I would go directly to Ketter. He must be made to understand that we are sick and tired of disappearing student services. If he forces us, we will take our case .to court. What are we as students legally entitled to? Every service we have now plus others that haven’t been instituted on this campus. We are paying for these services out of our mandatory fees. What does Ketter represent? He must be made to reflect our needs in his policy decisions, not those of private businesses. If necessary we will boycott and picket!! A NEW SEASON IS DAWNING, U.B., WAKE UP AND BE A PART OF IT informing Sieve Spiegel Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Executive Vice President, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The qualifications an Executive Vice President should have are knowledge and Association, of Student experience with experience and knowledge . parliamentary procedure and meetings, and ability and experience in working with and coordinating the activities of others. I have two years experience in the ,SA, last year as an Assembly member and this past year as an At-Large Senator which includes being a member of the Activities and Services Task Force and the Financial I have a good working Assembly. knowledge of the Student Association, the and parliamentary SA Constitution, procedure. This past year, I have worked diligently on the Senate Operations and Rules Committee, and the President’s University Wide Commission on Athletics. My background also includes Political Science and Communication courses, which involved both academic and practical experience in American politics, parliamentary procedure and working with and managing others. I’m running because 1 want to make the Student Association a viable force for responding to the needs of students at this University. I’ve been concerned and worked on behalf of students here for two years, and now feel I can better continue doing this as Executive Vice President. My chief goals would be increased effectiveness and responsibility in SA, to open up the lines of communication between SA and students, and to make the SA the advocate for student rights and services. Detail the specific steps you would take, and programs you would implement to make the Student Senate the most powerful branch of student government. Also, how would you unify the various interests which presently compete for power in the Senate? 1 agree that the power of the Student Senate needs to be increased, We must confirm that “The Student Senate shall have the ultimate authority over all the ’ affairs of the Student Association This is not as much a question of the steps I would take as it is one of continuing the line of work I’ve been doing all year. Most of the members of the Operations and Rules Committee and I have put in many hours working on legislation to make the Senate a more powerful branch of the government. In part, it would be through legislation and constitutional amendment, like the above quotation, that 1 would continue to increase the power of the Student Senate. In the Advocate Party platform, three of our specific aims are to: (1) Organize the Senate into a goal-oriented body. (2) More direct involvement for At-Large Senators. (3) Increase the power and autonomy of the Senate in relation to the Executive Committee. Having already explained the third, the first two goals would result in a more efficient and responsible legislative branch, hence a more powerful one. The Senate is part of the legislative branch, in order for it to be productive, we must also have input from the task forces, which serve as our work committees and grass roots level of input. More responsibility and direction should be given to the Senate, especially the At-Large Senators, to help bring this . . about. The interest groups no longer tie up the Senate with budgetary matters, but they are still not contributing useful input. Another aim of the Advocate Party is to review the Activities and Services Task Force and probably revise it to make the task force, and in turn the Senate, more efficient and powerful. This efficiency and power I speak of is not only in relation to the Executive Committee, but is even more important in regard to dealing with the University administration. Assume the administration would not allow UUAB, CAC and IRC to show any more “popular” movies on campus because of formal complaints from local theatre owners of unfair competition. What would you do? First the Executive Committee would hold an emergency meeting to organize our strategy of action. We would get our facts together regarding movies as a student history and their their service, Justifications. I would put SASU to work on the situation as well as soliciting help from the other SUNY centers, and would have the SA lawyer setting up our legal position. The director of public information would be getting the story out to The Spectrum to inform the student body, and to the local newspapers, to inform the the community. Obviously, Buffalo student body would be enraged at this latest example of disregard for student interests, and I would want to put this concern to good use. Immediately petitions would be circulated to show the administration in ap organized manner, the overwhelming student support. 1 would also contact local state legislators to voice their disapproval 19 the administration. Once these initial, actions had been taken, we would<meet with Dr. Ketter. I would remind him : ot the very real f possibility of student. riots, and that neither party would want this to come about. This threat of student violence, in combination with our factual and legal student presentations, overwhelming support, and pressure from local legislators and the local community would bring suffic-ent pressures to bear on Ketter so that he would have to remove his ban on the autonomy of this student service. , Treasurer Carol I. Block Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Treasurer, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. I am, running for re-election because I believe that my expertise, experience and the continuity which these carry are both valuable and necessary for Student Association. A first year Treasurer cannot help but fall into many traps; such as balancing the budget and dealing with irate SA Supplement The Spectrum . Page three . �and deceptive administrators and students. I realize that this past year I have been victim to some of these pitfalls; however, my record is a sound one. During this past year, I have wiped out a $40,000.00 deficit and replaced it with a $20,000.00 surplus. Also, I implemented the first supplemental budget which provided additional spring monies to under-funded previously projects., In addition, my accounting background gave me the knowledge to efficiently supervise the day to day transactions of student activities. My goals for a second term in office are: (1) to fairly appropriate the budget, (2) keep SA soluble and (3) accumulate a larger surplus for unexpected emergencies. Executive Committee policy making? In terms of this year’s budget, where is there a need for reform? I feel that any officer in SA shouldn’t let his position restrain him in any active participation irf policy making. If someone is elected into office and their only concern is her or his position and not the well being of the student government as a whole, they hinder rather than help. 1 also feel that there should be a closer observation on what money is spent and where. Instead of massive cuts, I, think there should be a more equal distribution of funds throughout student clubs and other student run organizations. I don’t feel that funds are being distributed There are clubs and adequately. organizations that need more and are receiving less. This can and will be corrected. It is my abition to involve myself, in greater depth by seeking the position of Treasurer. Only with your support can I make these goals work for you. Vice President for Sub Board Do you think the SA Treasurer should simply carry out the day to day financial responsibilities or take an active role in Executive Committee policy making? In terms of this year’s budget, where is there a otherwise might not be there. Its many divisions exist only for the benefit of we, the students. Whether the divisions efficiently do their jobs and fulfill our needs is the direct concern of each division director and the indirect concern of the Sub Board Directors. Only when a division is not meeting its desired goals should the Directors intervene and then only with great care. The Directors should then discuss, propose and recommend the needed changes to help the specific division meet its goals. An inter-structural Sub Board furor concerning the UUAB Film Committee grew out of the simple problem of whether the its fulfilling committee was responsibilities to show films for the whole student body. It boiled down to the issue of popular vs. art films, how many, and when they should be shown. Whether the action the Directors took was correct depends on your taste in films. Had I been involved, I would have brought all concerned together, discussed the issue in all its facets and reached a workable agreement. My personal feelings are such that in a situation like ours, a varied and full film schedule has to be the order of the day.

As a student becomes more involved with the University, he or she will, only naturally, become more knowledgeable of the workings of its organs. I soon came to see how the student bureaucracies worked, only when I was involved with them. In short, involvement leads to awareness and understanding. In the coming year, it will become increasingly necessary for all students to realize how the services they use on a regular or not so regular basis, evolved, With the administration taking daily incursions into the domain of student services, we must be armed with facts to protect our much needed services.

The Board of Directors should assist all Sub organizations Board a in creating democratic system which would mandate equal access to all students. 1 am of the opinion that Sub Board should create a student, non-political review board whose attention would be focused on one division at a time. This would enable the committee to evaluate and suggest methods of improving the operation and among -the communication systems individual organizations, student body, and Sub Board. If these conditions had existed prior to the UUAB controversy, I believe the problems would not have arisen. What steps would you take to familiarize the student body with Sub Board’s functions and operations within the University? In short, how would you dispel the “myth” of Sub Board? has Sub Board made itself a element comprehensible of student via a constant flow of government information. It is the Board’s responsibility to explain itself to the students in articles, accessible easily newsletters and publications. Tours of the already existing facilities should be provided to all students when they begin school at U.B. and on demand. Surveys and student referendums on priorities would give Sub Board representatives a clearer idea of who and what they stand for. But these are only first steps that must be taken. It is the attitude and approach of Sub Board that must be synchronized to the needs of the student population. the actual My desire and competence will only be seen in the daily affairs of the Sub Board office. I have stepped forward hoping to achieve objectives and only in election to the position of V.P. for Sub Board can I effectively accomplish them. The overall goal is to maintain the viability of the student services our predecessors worked for. These services must be maintained against the coming advances of the administration. The idea that it is educational, cultural, recreational and social to provide services for ourselves to make our University years easier and more comfortable, must be accepted. The other big goal is to make the student more responsive and bureaucracy comprehensible to us. The governments and their offices must be geared to work for the well being of their constituents. Once this is done, student government will be succeeding. Under what circumstances, if any, do you feel the Sub Board Directors should dictate the internal policy of one of Sub Board’s divisions?

These should exist for the social, recreational or “educational, cultural value,” as stated by the SUNY Board of Trustees’ guidelines. I believe the campus administration has misinterpreted and at times violated these guidelines.

This year I actively participated in student government as an off-campus, at-large Senator and as a member of the Senate. 1 served as a representative to the financial priorities committee. By regularly attending board meetings of Sub Board I, Inc., I have developed a workable understanding of its operations. From my and experience, concern with the successful operation of student-funded. University-wide projects, 1 have decided to run for the office of Vice President of Sub Board I, Inc. I see the primary goal for Sub Board as taking a leading role in protecting the rights of student-funded, student-run for the coming year. 1 feel that the office of Vice President for Sub Board should be held by an individual who is sensitive to the needs of students as well the programs of Sub Board. My background has much todo with counseling and the like, but my interests Mve expanded have been involved with the Commuter Affairs Committee and the Human Sexuality Center. Having worked as coordinator of activities on the Commuter Affairs Committee, I learned much about the structure and dynamics of SA. The Human Sexuality Center gave me much exposure to Sub Board and its structures and dynamics. As Co-Director of the Human Sexuality Center, it was important 'to me to accommodate the needs of our clientele, our counselors and to maintain an open and direct with the relationship administration. In an effort to continue with a personal approach, I would like to increase student involvement with Sub Board by opening the communication lines between Sub Board and the students. It is �important for more minority and foreign students to be reached and to be involved so that Sub Board is appealing to a larger and more diverse population. I also feel that it is necessary to strengthen the services of Sub Board through contacts and resources in the community. The ideas of others who have expertise in an area such as health care might strengthen the services on both campuses. Living at BUicott, I have seen how much the expansion and strengthening of services is especially needed there. < Working with the Center has given me much insight (o Sub Board and the needs of students. I have seen how effectiveness as an administrator can really affect a program. In seeking this position on Sub Board, I hope to accomplish this same kind of effectiveness in all of Sub Board’s programs so that students may utilize the services available to them as much as possible. Under what circumstances, if any, do you feel the Sub Board Directors should dictate the internal policy of one of Sub Board’s divisions? Comment on the recent UUAB Film Committee controversy. The internal policies of Sub Board’s divisions should be decided by each division director and the Sub Board Directors. Through working directly with the division directors, the guidelines for each programvbecome more dear and distinct. Consequently, the direction and thrust would be more decided by Sub Board’s divisions, rather than by Sub Board itself. It is important to keep in mind that Sub Board is a corporation designed for students and is student run. In the case of the UUAB Film Committee controversy, the redefinition of the policies of Sub Board was needed so that there would be no question as to what was in the guidelines and what was not. Had the guidelines been more clear-cut, perhaps the Film Committee might have had more power to control the situation it was faced with and Sub Board less power to manipulate it. What steps would you take to famiiarize the student body with Sub Board’s functions and operations within the University? In short, how would you dispel the “myth” of Sub Board? Initially, students must be made aware of Sub Board and its functions through more coverage of Sub Board’s policies through The Spectrum. This would give students more of a chance to see how their monies are utilized. Not just in the context of controversial issues, but rather in terms of every day functions, as well as current news about programs that hold special interests which may not necessarily be popular. In addition to this, perhaps through University Press, I think a leaflet should be distributed to students once a semester breaking down the functions and structure of Sub Board to explain who is funded by Sub Board and how that funding is gone about. This would also give more exposure to programs that receive little publicity throughout the year. Lastly, I think the distribution of surveys should be a part of each program of Sub Board to determine the needs of students from the students themselves. Through the students’ feedback Sub Board’s programs may better respond to the growing needs of the student population. Director of Academic Affairs the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. This past year, as the sole representative of the Academic Affairs Task Force to the Executive Committee of Student Association (SA), 1 have seen a complete disregard for student input in SA decisions. Neither the students nor the student press are informed of the issues which affect their education. As President of the Engineering Student Government (FEAS), I have seen little to no regard for the academic clubs of this University in the budgetary or policy making acitivities of SA; although the academic clubs have the most potential for input in academic decisions on a departmental level. Through my experiences of sitting on University-wide Faculty-Senate and have learned that I committees, information should, flow to the students while the committees are in progress, and not that the students first leam about the committee in its final report. I am running to change the student view of the Office of Academic Affairs. Academics must not remain an issue handled by just one or two SA officers all students must have a say! An important goal I wish to accomplish in the coming year is to improve and put into effect the proposed “Academic Bill of Rights.” This, perhaps the most important piece of paper that affects students, has been so torn apart by the Faculty-Senate that its purpose has changed to protecting the privileges of faculty from its original goal of protecting the rights of students. This document must resume its original purpose and be enacted in order to give students the rights they deserve in academics. In order to implement this and other academic goals, it is necessary: (1) to strengthen the Academic Affairs Task Force (consisting of student representatives from all departments); (2) to increase student participation on all levels of the by-laws allow Faculty-Senate (whose student representation on all committees); and (3) to demand that a higher priority be given to the undergraduate program at U.B. How would you assess the recently of the President’s released report Committee on Academic Planning? How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fail grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? The Interim Report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning was an assessment of all academic programs in this University. I was pleased to see that long overdue increases in library and computer resources were recommended. Although the committee on the wholerecommended maintaining the Collegiate program, I felt it out of bounds when it stepped recommended a phasing out of Tolstoy College (College F) and Social Sciences College while admitting that insufficient evidence was available to make a programs were judgement. Many recommended to combine with others which were closely related; with the effect that all programs would be strengthened through stable leadership and direction and the addition of valuable resources, while reducing faculty lines (i.e., Black Studies, Puerto Rican Studies, etc.). A sore spot of the report was the recommendation to phase out the School of Architecture and Environmental Design. A program unique in the SUNY system to U.B., it should have Educational innovations, which are usually the first programs attached, must be maintained. The pass-fail option must always be available. The Colleges must offer programs not usually found, but often important in a University setting. Independent study (the basic tenet of the four course load) has to be~defended on the premise that “all education is not in the classroom.” A near absence of University-wide requirements is essential to allow students the chance to take the course of instruction which is best for them and a three tier advisement system where there is a general advisor for incoming freshmen, a faculty advisor as the student’s discipline is developed, and a departmental advisor when the student - Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Academic Affairs, . . be taken pass-fail per semester, is punishing the entire student populace for the failure of the program’s original purpose. The decision to allocate the pass-fail option must be left to each individual department to decide upon. Furthermore, the student should own the choice of when he wishes to use pass-fail and not be limited to when and how. The Colleges, as noted earlier, must maintain their freedom. Presently independent study is under no direct threat. The absence of University-wide requirements is responsive to the individual academic growth; a rigid, well-designed and open to program, structured undergraduates on an optional basis could, however, prove beneficial. If such policies were threatened, it would be our position to advocate student opposition and right to keep these rights for the student body. I think a big plus in in getting students involved and strengthening SA would be to see the Academic Affairs Task Force assert its influence in University decisions. I would push for the academic clubs to pressure both their individual departments along with their constituents to respond in opposition. The most important factor is to prevent such acts before they take place. > — been given the necessary increases to reach a level of accreditation.

If such features were threatened from within (as they have been on several occasions), my first reaction would be to inform aU students of the situation . my only power being that which comes from student support and input. Hopefully, the students would already have known of the situation by information regularly supplied to them in SA newsletters. After all, forewarned is forearmed! Then I, with an active role being played by the Task Force, would take a stand through the channels available to us in the Faculty-Senate and administration. I feel that if we go in with the attitude of full student support and full student knowledge of what is happening, the administration cannot refuse us. After all, students are what this University is all about!

My qualifications include: member and Senator of the Academic Affairs Task Force, director of its Budget and Activities Committee, member of the Senate’s Rules and Operations Committee, and president of UB/AFS. I’m running to insure the quality of academics in this University, especially now when it is being threatened by SUNY cutbacks as well as this administration. I would attempt to expand both SCATE and the student handbook, to increase student awareness of departmental and University academic policies, and to open SA’s role in academics to everyone, giving students the chance to become actively involved in this University’s operations. How would you assess the recently report of the President’s released Committee on Academic Planning? How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fail grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? Overall I think the committee’s report was fairly representative of present student needs and desires, although it would be wise to note that the report is just a ‘report,’ and doesn’t necessarily mean that the policy suggested will be carried out. The report seems rather vague in addressing future student needs when it states, “In applying the criteria of quality, need and promise, the Committee was sensitive to institutional needs to respond to societal In pressures, system wide interactions . other words, by basing future University policy on what degrees are more prone to employment, the University is risking general academic excellence for the cause of certain job opportunities. We must not allow for the institutionalization of our education. We must advocate “we,” the . students’ right to become what we want to be; to graduate in the field we personally deem important. The committee showed signs toward this shift in policy with the recommendation to abolish both Tolstoy and Social Sciences Colleges, two schools devoted to radical thought and change. It is up to SA to work with the Colleges to clarify student demands to keep these Colleges and what they represent. I believe that such educational innovations as listed are extremely important to the intellectual freedom of the student. These options must be available to enhance and insure academic growth.

How essential do you feel are educational innovations such as pass-fad grading, the Colleges, independent study, and a near absence of University-wide requirements? What would be your course of action if such features of the University were threatened from within? The recently released interim report of the President’s Committe on Academic Planning recommends and advises the planning of academic policies. In this report, the committee unanimously agrees that the Social Science College and Tolstoy College be abolished. They also agree that the Black Studies program and Puerto Rican studies be phased out. The committee also “found significant no academic interaction with intercollegiate and hence makes athletics, no recommendation on this activity.” I strongly object to these recommendations. Strongly diversified fields of class offerings are needed to make this University function. Without intercollegiate athletics and without minority studies programs you are limiting the selection of courses. What happened to “Let each become all s/he is capable of being?” 1 feel the option of pass-fail grading should still be kept. College independence should still remain, independent studies should be continued. I support the four course load for all undergraduates. Each department should schedule their own required courses.

Andrea Gabelman Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Student Affairs, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The position of Director of Student Affairs requires a person who can get along with people, and use her resources to solve complicated problems. I feel that I have much experience to help me in these tasks: experience which began while serving on the Town of Ramapo Department of Parks and Recreation Advisory Board. This group makes major policy decisions for the town. . Here 1 learned about government in action, and saw how government policy is formulated. As a student at U.B., I have worked with IRC, and have become acquainted with the overall problems of dorm residents; the attitudes of the administration. As a dorm resident, 1 see these problems first hand. Through my work as Legal and Welfare Coordinator for CAC, I learned to organize volunteers and direct their activities in the City of Buffalo. Science forming the Political In Undergraduate Association, I became familiar with SA and the Student Senate. As this club’s President I have acquainted myself with administrational procedure and have attempted to plan events of student interest. I think these qualities will help me serve you as Director of Student Affairs. The major reason that I am running for SA is that I am not pleased with the way the present 'administration has handled problems on campus.

Dennis Black Lee Scott Perres Briefly state your qualifications for the position of Director of Student Affairs, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. The most important qualification for Director of Student Affairs is dedication and the desire to defend students’ rights at all costs. Experience in SA is not a prerequisite for caring. Caring is important. I care and I work hard, and I have ideas that can make SA stronger, more viable organization on campus. I am tired of the students of U.B. being treated as an unwanted entity. We all seem to do a lot of complaining, but few of us decide to devote the energy to the job. I want to use my energy for our rights. Someone has to want to stick up for us and 1 want to be the one to do it. As Director of Student Affairs, I will institute a free legal service program so students can have free legal aid. I am going to continue the fight for a fair housing contract and improve the busing situation so we can get the most for our money.

The ability to work with various groups and individuals is a key factor in making the office of Activities and Services a successful one. The position requires close contact with a wide variety of campus organizations besides the capacity to deal with the University administration on many important questions. Due to my record of interests and activities, both on and off campus, 1 feel that I could the deal for accomplish a great undergraduate students at U.B. As a member of the Student Affairs Task Force, the SA Senate and the FSA Bookstore Advisory Board, I have become both knowledgeable and involved in important campus issues. My activity in suburban politics and my membership on the bpard of directors of a local high school hgve given me an opportunity to dftajl with a variety of people and hundreds of problems, a situation not unlike that faced by the Director of Activities and Services. I am running for this office because of my interest in attaining certain goals, and a sincere belief that I have the proper balance between youthful enthusiasm and level-headed maturity to impleprei# them for the benefit of all. Three main themes would accompany my term in office. The first would be to maintain and improve existing services with a sense of both fiscal and legal responsibility. Services are an University of the important part community and must be protected. A second plan would be to expand both the membership and scope of activities of the various campus clubs. More student involvement in club activities would increase their role in the University system and lead to a more informed and involved student body. More daytime activities by the various campus organizations would be my third goal. During the day, more people are available to participate and a reasonable amount of activities should be accessible to them. How do you rate the importance of intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities? How would you view your role in Amherst Campus planning? fie specific. Intercollegiate and intramural athletics are an important part of any university and competition Athletic campus. recreational intramurals provide the University community an opportunity for both spectator and personal involvement. What must be remembered, however, is that this is a University of over 14,000 undergraduates and that their Student Association is responsible for afl of their interests. With this in mind, a balance between athletics and all the other SA funded activities and organizations must be maintained. To commit too much to one interest and neglect the rest would be a �gross violation of student trust. Therefore, it is in the interest of all of us to maintain our athletic programs, but keep them in the proper relationship with the needs of the entire University community. Without question, student involvement in the planning of the Amherst Campus should be an active one. Two areas that point up the need for this type of student interest and pressure are the plans for the Physical Education plant and “Parcel B” lituation. In both cases, student interests in their own school must be protected by the students themselves. The Director of Activities and Services must coordinate itudent drives to protect the size of their )wn fieldhouse and to insure that student interests are protected in the planning of the commercial plaza planned for the Amherst Campus. These are just two examples of the necessary services that must come from the Activities Office. Long after we are gone, undergraduate students will be living and learning on a campus taking shape today. The most important thing that we can leave behind for them would be a properly planned facility, complete with all the needed services and activities. recreational activities, including concerts, beer blasts, and films.

Most of the plans were drawn in the 1960’s and they are outdated. I plan to fight for such a board with student representation to review and alter existing plans. I see jnyself in the best position to represent the undergrads, with my task force and the Executive Committee there to help me formulate a stand that is in the students’ best interests. Two things we must fight for in relation to this are: (1) keeping costs down in the proposed shopping mall so student-run co-ops will be able to operate there, and (2) having no leases signed with incoming merchants without provisions mandating student employees. intercollegiate football. We must have a varied program of activities that will meet the needs of many, not just supporting a few. The Amherst Campus must be made ready for the gradual move of facilities from the Main Street Campus. I would like to see an increased amount of needed services brought to the Amherst Campus in order to meet the present and future demand. The' inferior level of health care on the Amherst Campus is a dangerous situation which must be improved. Check cashing and post office services must be expanded. A ticket office should be provided for the students of the North Campus. We must make sure that students have a say in how the Parcel B commercial center is run so that we don’t get taken of because a bunch of advantage businessmen would like to make a profit from a captive consumer market. Bup service, of course, must be improved so that all students can arrive at class on time and in one piece. Long range plans must now be made in order to insure office space for student services and clubs, and for the provision of space for moire student activities, such as decent gym facilities. — How do you rate the importance of intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities? How would you view your role in Amherst Campus planning? Be specific. Intercollegiate and intramural athletics are important and necessary on any campus. They provide an opportunity to develop school spirit and inspire teamwork. Being able to plan and work with others is essential for anyone planning a career. should be for athletics Budgeting proportionate to this need; consequently, they should be a priority just above other Ilene Cohn Briefly state your qualifications for the position of SASU Delegate, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the I’ve always been concerned about student rights.

I’m currently Captain of the SUNYAB Speech-Debate Team.

As President of the Council last year, I gained experience in coordinating and supervising many research and activity projects simultaneously. When the Council applied for recognition last year, and the Commuter Club applied this year, I became familiar with the club recognition process. In relation to services, I have worked with many administrators here on different projects and I am familiar with their thought processes. This experience will be very helpful in dealing with Ketter and I am confident that I can stand up to him. I am running because 1 am a commuter who is tired of having few day-time Activities, and I am a student who is tired of sitting and watching Ketter and his vice presidents walk all over the students. As Director of Activities and Services, I hope to provide more and better activities for the student body. I would like to increase participation in club projects and activities. This can be accomplished by providing better publicity for them and by making their activities more appealing to larger numbers. I will work with all of the club presidents toward this goal.

How do you rate the importance of, intercollegiate and intramural athletics relative to other student activities? How would you view your role in Amherst Campus planning? Be specific.

I am very interested in campus issues and as a result of this, I have become active in a variety Of organizations. This year, I am a Student Senator from the Student Affairs Task Force. I’m also on the Finance Committee and the Financial Assembly. As chairwoman of the Financial Priorities Committee,’ I have the responsibility of finding dut what the students’ priorities are how tttey want their money spent. During NYPIRG’s voter registration drive, I organized the drive on the North Campus. I was a leader at U.B. of SASU’s save SUNY/NY campaign where I coordinated the letter writing campaign and the lobby in Washington. I would like to use these talents and experiences to make sure U.B. is fully represented in SASU as well as making SASU a viable organization and responsive to student needs. My goals as SASU delegate are; (1) Organize letter writing campaigs as well as lobby in Albany to make sure tuition and dorm rents are not increased. (2) Insure that the Third' World Caucus becomes a reality, so that all students are represented in SASU. (3) Publicize SASU’s services and - I am tunning because I would like to. help change SA into'an organization run by and for a greater number of students, unlike the present system. I feel that I can help the students maintain contntt of their own money from mandatory activities fees that we all pay. I also see a need to make the Student Activities Task Force more responsive to the needs of the service and club organizations of this school. In short, I give a damn about the welfare of the student body. ■ f A high priority is to make SA more responsive to the needs of the students. I’d like to see SA plan for long-range goals, as well as maintaining the needed amount of short-range projects. We must improve the internal workings of SA so that more beneficial things for the students can come from it. We’ve waited long enough for a truly representative student government and I don’t see any reason to wait longer. I believe that if we build up the effectiveness and responsiveness of the various student representative bodies to the needs of the people they represent, then superior results will naturally follow. The formula is simple; better input creates better output. costs of My goals as SASU delegate are: (1) To change the SASU/SUNYAB relationship SASU doesn’t give out enough information to students and has little student input. As a result, the past delegates tend to ’ provide information to the students. (4) students’ complete control over mandatory student fees. (5) Fight to maintain student services on SUNY campuses. (6) Push for laws to allow students to vote in their college communities. (7) Get the SUNY schools that have dropped out of SASU to rejoin. (8) Work to make financial aid programs broader and more equitable. Gain our Justify Student Association’s membership in SASU in light of recent withdrawals by other SUNY units. Although there are problems in SASU now, they can be solved by current SASU schools working with those schools that have dissolved their membership on common issues such as the fight against tuition increases. At this point, the sore spot concerning the Third World Caucus should be of secondary importance. SASU is still a viable organization. As students, we must relv on our numbers to themselves rather than the students. (2) Emphasize and expand the SASU services program and fight to maintain individual campus services, mainly our own. (3) Insure an adequate budget to prevent tuition and room rent hikes and cutbacks in departments and programs. (4) Oppose any administrative represent control over our mandatory student fees. (S) Protect financial aid programs. (6) Complete the SASU membership by bringing back all the SUNY schools..<(7), Providing for a Third World Caucus. (8) ■ Increase SASU’s alliance with other state and national organizations. Justify our Student Association’s membership in SASU in light of recent ** withdrawals by other SUNY units. SASU is the only way that students can make their voices heard without violence. is important because the present administration is afraid of a violent return to the 1960’s, and consequently afraid of students. Now is the time we have to stand together, and stand by SASU. Recently schools have been dropping out of SASU over an internal problem; the establishment of a Third World Caucus. To correct this; the schools must be individually spoken to and reassured that new leadership with different ideas will be elected in June. It’s important to view SASU in light of its accomplishments; the greater good of a state SA, a student voice in the SUNY of services, SASU’s administration, and lobbying, information, life-line communication with other schools rather than this problem. We, as well as other schools, should realize this.

Recent withdrawals from SASU have apparently been acts of opposition to the leadership rather than an attack on the itself. Those that left organization assumingly decided it was easier to quit than to assume responsible roles of leadership in helping to give SASU the direction that it so desperately needs. Member schools, including this one, must give the SASU staff the directions, and not the reverse. From a S67 activities fee, $.85 goes to SASU. Last year, SASU helped prevent possible increases of $100 in dorm rent. Not a bad investment, especially if one takes advantage of the various buying cooperatives and further savings. Any fight we can hope to have for preventing new tuition and dorm hikes, establishing student controls over our mandatory fees and the services they provide, etc. must be waged in Albany, in the State Legislature and on the Board of Trustees by a unified, strong organization of students. SASU is one of the few student-lobbying-for-students groups in the country that have begun to realize but an increment of their potential.'

Public support for our legislative programs would be an invaluable asset to the passage of student-benefiting bills. A series of student visits to community organizations would be vital towards achieving this end. A SASU planning committee could be implemented to help bring SASU benefits to campus. It could also be instrumental in directing delegates as to what specific programs to seek in Albany with direct SUNYAB benefit as the goal. SASU delegate SASU work for the students. SASU 3 doing much on a state-wide basis in providing benefits to jtudejats-and in attempting to solve theta problems. But it could do much, muctf more*' It is because of this that I am A running. I believe SASU can be both in the services it provides to thestudents and in its own organization. First, SASU programs provide many benefits k> students which they now know nothing about. These programs, such as trave discounts, student insurance, and purchase power, should be made better known to the University community. Secondly, SASU’s full potential as a student lobbying or8.nte.tlon to bnen by no m..n, achieved. I feel two problems of special importance should be attacked more one, the strongly on a state-wide basis budget cuts SUNY has had to suffer, with \ special emphasis on cuts in athletic programs and cbaches’salaries, and, two, the raises in tuition students face the coming semester. The SUNY system has had to bear too great a share of this state’s economic burden. W 1 Jr W X - ' our Student Association’s Justify membership in SASU in light of recent withdrawals by other SUNY units. SASU has suffered much criticism of SUNY schools have Several late. abandoned it, claiming it is ineffective as a student representative in Albany. 1 do not agree. Students must have some voice in the state-wide decision and policy making level. Without SASU they have none. SASU is the strongest, most important SUNY the advocate in student administration, the State Legislature, and Governor Carey’s office. It is true that SASU has not been highly successful in affecting SUNY policy, but that is not to say that it cannot or will not be. One of SASU’s major problems has been the incompetence and lack of interest of many of its delegates. SASU needs only a combination of good leadership, interested delegates, and proper organization to achieve its potential I want to be one of those “interested delegates.” I think SASU can be made to work. Juan Gonzales Briefly state your qualifications for the position of SASU Delegate, the reasons you are running, and your goals for the coming year. My qualifications for position as a SASU delegate is that in the period I have been present at this University, I have been » involved with many students, clubs, and organizations that have been committed to the further development of minority students. I have also played an important role in the implementation of programs that have been beneficial to a variety of needing students. In addition, I have been involved in community organizations, with the prime objective of the development of resources that will be of interest to a growing community, and of high school students and organizations both in the Buffalo and New York City areas. My goals for the coming year and my ambitions for running for SASU is to stretch communications between colleges in the SUNY system and transfer these ideas to the lobbyist in Albany so that a student voice can be loud and clear in the issues that affect all students in the SUNY p*»«# of: an optiobTor to vote » pa P the campus union and a ’ full tun to t0 pick up the .state t coirtirutfllhnt by me funding of intercollegiate athletics, Pr _ J?r|° . . hetwee h - . * / Student . ®ur •--**«>. membership to « withdrewaU by other Association’sa AaaocmUon bUNY uimts. £J, t'JtZ | P i n ion SUNY campuses have in my op withdrawn ass rather because because of pure pure, base students, hut but rather, "»! the j.m.s o poM.cn The»» parliamentary procedure, instead, we must ask. what is SASU doing for the 150,000 SUNY students. Although it has not reached its potential, SASU has accomplished enough in the past to justify our continued involvement. Surely, the post-card voter registration law, the placement of students on the College Council and the Board of Trustees, and the prevention last year of a room rent hike are examples of positive action by SASU. However, SASU has also failed on several counts, the chief of these being its inability to inform students programs. Also, SASU has not found the time to work on those problems which mainly affect the individual campus. These shortcomings only touch the tip of the »Mj ® « « » iceberg.

My justification for Student Association membership in SASU is to be able to communicate and relate student information and experiences to the administration and University population.

GSEU representatives said that this raise would be insignificant for many, and that what is needed is a raise in the minimum assistantship salary. by Steven Milligram Spectrum Staff Writer President Robert Ketter met with three representatives of the Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU) Wednesday afternoon in Hayes Hall and expressed sympathy with GSEU concerns, but said there was little he could do.

Senate resolution Boycott of Cavages called for by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor A boycott of Cavages record stores was called by the Senate Wednesday. The boycott will be supervized by a committee of seven members. Four Senators and three members of the Coalition for Student Services will be appointed by Student Association (SA) president Michele Smith. Cavages is suing the University over what it claims is unfair competition from the Record Coop. An attempt by Cavages to a temporary injunction which would have closed the Coop until the case comes to court failed last week. The resolution was sponsored by Jeff Lessoff, Pat Lovejoy, Andrea Gabelman and Abdullah Wahaab. The Senate defeated a provision in the resolution which called for Cavages stores to be picketed, largely out of fear that this would prejudice the court against the University. Student Fighting the suit? SA is trying to enter the case as a defendant with the University. Student Affairs Director Steve Schwartz charged that administration officials know if they lose the case they will be forced to close down other student services and therefore “we don’t know if they’re fighting as hard as they should.” For example, he claimed that the University’s attorney had been totally unprepared when Schwartz saw him in court and “hadn’t even read the papers.” Schwartz told the Senate that SA’s lawyer, Richard Lippes, advised him that although a boycott was legal, he wasn’t sure about a picket. Even if it is, Schwartz said, Lippes feared it would prejudice the judge. Lesoff said the Senate has been supporting a “silent boycott” of Cavages for some time, and felt the picket would add strength to the student protest. When several Senators spoke against the motion, one of its supporters declared, “This is just another example of the Senate doing nothing and passing lukewarm measures.” Good organizers An amendment to give the Coalition for Student Services complete control of the boycott was defeated. Senator David Brownstein, who proposed the amendment, said the Senate would be spared the time and trouble of setting up a committee of its own if this was done, and added that the Coalition is made up of many Community Action Corps (CAC) and New York Public Interest Group (NYPIRG) members “who are good organizers.” However, Senator Mike Jones remarked that “the last time CAC and NYPIRG organized something we had a small thing called the Attica riot,” referring to incidents last year downtown and in Hayes Hall, where students were arrested. In other business, the report on the Job Description Committee was presented by Committee Chairperson Bill Finkelstein, who asserted that he is the only active member, and that he had not received due cooperation from the people he has tried to interview. Hayes or Norton? He concluded that if they were too apathetic to keep their appointment with him to discuss their positions, “they’re just in it for the money.” Finkelstein admitted that his efforts had been hampered by his lack of help, and told the Senate that the committee should be attempted again next year. Michele Smith A resolution condemning the Academic Planning Committee for “apparently arbitrarily” recommending the closing and phasing-out of some colleges and department; was presented by Senator Rob Cohen. The resolutior called in part for the Academic Affairs Task Force tc study the document and prepare a position paper tc present to the administration: This was approved. The Senate declined to condemn the committee, however. Finkelstein objected to the condemnation because he felt most of the Senators had not read the document and didn’t know what they were voting on. Cohen, however, became incensed and left the meeting after the motion failed. “Is this Hayes Hall or Norton, that’s what 1 want tc know,” he said. “The Colleges are being attacked and you people won’t stick up for them.” �Study puts pot behind alcohol and tobacco .1 *. V by Mike McGuire Campus Editor Supporters of marijuana decriminalization in this area received some unexpected approval of their position this past Saturday when the Buffalo Evening News called editorially for decriminalizationof the substance. The News has published a number of editorials against drug use in general and against legalization of marijuana, and recently ran a poll in which decriminalization was opposed by a 3>1 margin. The News editorial cited decriminalization as a “reasonable and immediate step to alleviate the counterproductive and socially alienating effects of criminal enforcement” of marijuana laws. The News insisted, however, that too little was known about marijuana’s effects to allow the “wide-open social encouragement” they felt legalization would entail. The editorial followed .by several days the report of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), which concluded that marijuana ranks third behind alcohol and tobacco as a top national health hazard. The report concluded that 53% of Americans aged eighteen to twenty-five and 8 % ofallU.S. college students had tried marijuana. - Pot studies poor The N1DA report opined that marijuana use has become the norm among young people during the past seven years. Also, said NIDA, use of the drug now has no apparent connection to social class, whereas it was once more prevalent among lower socioeconomic groups. NIDA criticized many reports on marijuana use for allegedly shoddy research methods. The agency scoffed at one study, done of inmates in a mental asylum, which attempted to correlate marijuana use with inmates’ mental conditions. NIDA noted wryly that according to that study, dancing or beer drinking are statistically more likely to cause later insanity than is marijuana smoking. The NIDA report, however, said that marijuana still can’t be given “a clean bill of health.” They cited hazards caused by driving after smoking marijuana, especially when some alcohol has also been consumed. The report said, however, that a simple roadside test may soon be developed to check for marijuana intoxication, similar to the one now used to check drivers for drunkenness. Medical uses The report said that recent research has proven marijuana medically useful in reducing fluid pressure in the eyes of glaucoma victims, in easing nausea in cancer patients taking chemotherapy, and in dilating lung passages in asthmatics. NIDA, however, said recent findings indicate marijuana use is not advisable for those with heart disease, since it increases the heart rate, and since chronic use may impair heart functioning. NICA went on to say that there is no evidence that marijuana smoking causes genetic damage, stunts growth, interferes with male sexual fertility, or affects resistance to diseases. Local debate over decriminalization will come to a head with a debate between Erie County Sheriff Michael A. Amico and Frank Fioramonte, state coordinator for the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), currently set for March 11 at Buffalo State College. Amico has been a vigorous proponent of enforcing drug laws, but recently has admitted current state marijuana laws may be overly harsh. Rich Foxton, co-coordinator of local decriminalization efforts for the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYP1RG), said that NYPIRG’s campaign for decriminalization is just getting under way, but has already made some headway. He says- his organization has uncovered much “closet” support for decriminalization among Western New Yorkers, including even policemen who keep their opinions secret from their superiors. 1973, and Marijuana was decriminalized in Oregon in decriminalization measures became law last year in California, Colorado, Ohio, Maine and Alaska. .Governor Carey called for decriminalization in New York this year in his annual State of the State message, and his proposal has gained support from several key Democratic legislative leaders. WELCOME HOME Craft s Arts and crafts can become a lucrative business venture for willing entrepreneurs. Among those who have chosen to develop a business enterprise devoted to crafts is Ray Ferrara, owner of Sweet-Earth Leather & Craftshop at 3389 Bailey Avenue. Ferrara, who began working with leather as a hobby, first experimented with selling his goods for a profit in the union at Buffalo State College. Although he holds undergraduate degrees in electrical and mechanical engineering, Ferrara decided to devote his time to the development of his leather crafting abilities. And despite his increased responsibilities, he says, the enjoyment and fulfillment in creating a well crafted product persists. The Homestead, located at 3329 Bailey Avenue, draws its uniqueness from the variety of handcrafts it displays. Owner Gary Rizzo views good craftsmanship as most important, adding that there is no justification for compromising quality for an increase in speed or in an effort to mass produce. Rizzo, a woodworker, was formerly employed in a Chicago woodshop specializing in the assembly line type creation of water beds, tables and . A progressive workshop in modem stage performance showcase relatively unknown playwrights. The director of the current Upstairs Sleeping, Van Oss touched on probably the most important difference between traditional theater and the ACT saying, “Our theater itensifies reality for the audience. It’s not an escape.” The small theater (the ACT site is a former warehouse which houses two theaters) has an intimacy that lends itself beautifully to that reality. Douglas Woolley, an excellent actor with the company, spoke on several other themes of the endeavor. “We don’t do what we know,” he said; “we’re always posing questions and then trying to answer them.” As for the difficulty of being a progressive ensemble, Woolley spoke of the fact that there are no precedents for the type of work they are doing. The American Contemporary Theatre, located at 1695 Elmwood Avenue (north entrance), welcomes any interested students who would like to work for the company with the only criterion being a “willingness to work.” This weekend will see the last performances of the plays Three People by A.R. Gurney, Jr. and Upstairs Sleeping by Harvey Perr. Roger Duvernoy in its desire to The “curtain” is at 8:30. MONOPOLY-BACKGAMMON Friday Last night saw two very good performances play to a handful of people at the American Theatre (ACT) on Contemporary Elmwood Avenue. While this is hardly a new phenomenon in Buffalo theatre, it’s particularly distrubing considering how much this theatre company has to offer. Started in 1972, the ACT has grown to achieve national recognition under the direction of Joe Dunn and Irja Koljonen as one of the most advanced experimental theater companies in the country today. Why then the stacked seats? An unwillingness to communicate can hardly be the fault here. Unlike some artistically oreinted progressive organizations, the ACT feels a genuine commitment to the non-theatrically oriented among us. “When people think of theater,” says director Alex Van Oss, “they conjure up all types of associations: curtains, intermission and so forth. In this respect, we are initially unsettling for our avoidance of conventional devices as such.” r ’til -8 BAILEYAVE.

One such vendor, Philip Pinto, a part-time student here, also known as the “Candle Man,” has been selling his handmade candles in the union for four years. He first became intrigued with candle making while in California, where the craft circle is massive, and candle making has since developed as his livelihood. With a partner, Pinto maintains a workshop and gallery, The Forgotten Light, at 596 Oliver St. in North Tonawanda. Pinto’s involvement with candlemaking includes travelling each summer to fairs and art shows in the Northeast and lecturing to Boy Scout, Girl Scout and Senior Citizen groups in the Buffalo area. Pinto said his business has reached its present “professional” level gradually,, but in the process, the quality of candles has never been sacrificed. Although each candle requires separate attention, Pinto still takes personal fulfillment and satisfaction from the quality ofhis “product.” A familiar display on the first floor of Norton Union is Jim Stephens’ “Chinese paper cuttings.” bookshelves.

Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Loranzetti remarked, “This is probably the last time we will be able to absorb these cuts without an internal reorganization. It has reached the point where we might have to eliminate a department.” “These cuts weaken the effectivenss of the services, until they reach the point where it is hard to justify their existence altogether,” he concluded. Student Affairs has been asked by the University to consider charging for such services as counseling and the placement service. The Spectrum has learned. Lorenzetti felt that while the cuts for his division are on par with the rest of the University, the tremendous demand on this campus for student services made the cuts more detrimental there. In view of these cuts and projected elimination of departments and programs, one administration official asserted that, although Carey’s budget allowed for mandated salary increases, he would “find it morally unacceptable to accept a pay raise while people are being laid off.” In Concert v* • 2 • Harry A^J^o • ,ncert Hall Art • Center# ' • • + 2 2 ON TICKET OFFICE, UB AT K $3.50 Student w/I.D.

Today they are the second leading industrial power in the world, and may well overtake us by 1990. How has this been accomplished? The question is well worth asking, because if we examine the Japanese model, we might learn that our own way of doing things, our own self-estimation, is badly in need of re-examination. Certainly we will find that a great deal of what we do has merit. But that does not diminish the importance of the inquiry. Societies all have their Sacred Cows, ours is no exception. For example, American sports fans faithfully believed (until I960) that you could never regain the Heavyweight Boxing Championship once n f ‘ 1 | you had lost it. That belief came crashing down after Patterson knocked out Ingemar Johansen. in Vietnam, everyone accepts the theory that “you can’t win a land war in Asia” and American power is “overextended.” t suspect these Sacred Cows will exist until someone does “win” a land war in Asia, and some super-power “over-extends” itself into world domination. Floyd After the debacle Sense of self In the February 9 international edition of Newsweek three major articles concern this need to re-think old assumptions. (Why things don’t work in the USSR, Shinjuku, Danil Bell). Two Americans, an architect and a historian have done a study and constructed a display (currently at the museum of modern art) about the Shinjuku section of Tokyo. Shinjuku has to be seen to be believed. It is at one time chaotic, pulsating, and ordered. It grew spontaneously, without the aid of master city planners dictating construction schedules, traffic flow, sanitation etci Yet it works far better than western master plans like Brasilia (Amherst?), because the people want it to work. Simply put, the Japanese have shown that their notion of self and its place in society transcends architectural schemes, and ultimately contributes to the welter called Shinjuku, and, on a larger scale, the whole of Japan. So, while Japanese streets twist and turn incomprehensibly, and skyscrappers tower over century old match box thin houses, you note the absense of door locks, crime and scores of other symbols and styles of living I am accustomed to. There was a time two hundred years ago, when Americans transcended their physical particularities and brought about the American Revolution. Daniel Bell suggests that the “foundation of all society is the willingness of all groups to compromise private ends for the public interest.” The Japanese have mastered this very lesson, and have accomplished much with very little. Death and Dying workshop Currently in its third year, the Death and Dying workshop profoundly changes the thinking of those who attend it, according to students now in the class. Death and Dying is one of the most popular offerings of Life Workshops, a program of non-credit courses taught by skilled volunteers. Life Workshops plans to offer the course as long as the demand for it continues. Workshop leader Rod Saunders is campus minister of the United Methodist Church and teaches in the Religious Studies Program here. He began leading Death and Dying two years ago, when he was invited to do so by the Life Workshops steering Committee. The Committee, after determining that there would be a demand for the class, concluded that Saunders was the best possible person to teach it. The workshop covers many aspects of the topic of death, and is not as morbid as one might think. The first week features the film What Man Shall Live and Not See Death and is followed by seven weeks , of discussion. Lecturing by Saunders is generally confined to introductory passages from books. An important part of the course is the book The Art of Dying by Robert Neal. The book’s exercises are used frequently, Saunders said, to initiate discussions. One discbssion, for example, brought out each of the participants’ feelings about the end of their own lives. Such exercises are designed to help the participants lose their fears and discuss the topic openly. According to Saunders, about 70 percent of the workshop participants are undergraduates, although the present group consists of a larger number of alumni and community residents than usual. , Members of this year’s group said the workshop generally lived up to their expectations, and they were very glad they took it. One alumni participant currently working as a free-lance writer was happy because the course contained even more individual participation than he expected..

So long.” At this stage of the academic year, even the sleepiest of freshmen should be aware of the fact that the intercollegiate athletics program at this university is not commensurate with other programs on campus or with athletics programs at other schools of equal size. The reasons for this are numerous. There are problems involving state funding, scholarships, recruiting, and a whole host of other areas which I am not going to deal with now. Just let us suffice to say that Buffalo is a major university with a minor sports program. Because Buffalo teams are not generally competitive with schools like Ohio State, UCLA, Arizona State, etc., coverage outside of The Spectrum and the few local papers is virtually non-existant. This situation is unfortunate for me as The Spectrum's sports editor, and it is unfortunate for the coaches, players, and students at Buffalo as well. For if we had a football team ranked nationally or a basketball team in the NIT, or a hockey team which produced Olympians, things would be a lot more exciting around the school.

As a Lebanese of the Christian faith who read Samuel Prince’s article about the Lebanese situation (The Spectrum, February 18, 1976), I would like to point out; 1. Either Mr. Prince is very ill-informed or he is trying to misinform the readers. In Lebanon, there are no Christian people or Moslem people; there is the Arab people of Lebanon. only one people — Lebanon has never been nor will it ever be a Christian or a Moslem State. 2. Mr. Prince talks about the Christians as if they are not Arabs. Well, in our history there were Christian Arabs long before there were any Moslem Arabs. And to our culture and civilization, all of our ancestors have contributed regardless of their religion. ->• 3. The war in Lebanon is a class war and is not a religious war as many Zionists like to see it. It is, in part, a war between the poor and the rich, the oppressed against their oppressors. Four out of the five parties described in the American Press as “Moslem Leftists” are founded and being led by Christians from Lebanon. 4. If any Christians or Moslems need to be cried for, then they are the people living under the Zionist occupation where mosques have been burnt (A1 Aksa, for example), and churches have been occupied and fired at by Israeli soldiers and where were put in jails. The priests Christian priests outcries for such crimes have raged many times from the Vatican and other countries. 5. situation in Lebanon should raise the question of why there is blood shed in the Middle East, who introduced it and how to put an end to it? Well, our Middle East was peaceful till the Zionist settlers came to Palestine. When feeling powerful enough, they expelled the Palestinians from their homes, trying to create a state “as Jewish as England is English” at a time when there were 700,000 Jews and 1,380,000 Arabs. This was the beginning of the bloodshed introduced by some racist groups like the Haganah. Unfortunately, this will continue as long as there is even one single Palestinian who wants to return to his home and is prevented from doing so just because he is not of the Jewish faith. The solution is again a secular state in ALL PALESTINE where people can live free regardless of their religion. As long as this is not established, there will never be peace there. - - John Elias Save the squirrels To the Editor. 1 am sick and tired of seeing those poor innocent squirrels maimed and killed by unleashed dogs!

If you realized what your dog was doing while you sit in the Library or Math class, maybe you would leave your mutt home.

Farkas, critic at large for his review of the album Savage Eye by the Pretty Things. My attention is drawn to his statement comparing this group to what “Steven Stills might have sounded like if his voice and talent deserted him.” Despite being a very trivial point, I can’t let such an assinine statement be put in print without setting the record straight. Comparing Stills, one of the most influential personalities in American music, to this typical “fags haven't deserted* him, Stills is alive and veil, *rtd remains one of the most versatile guitarists and songwriters around. He’s been with us for some time, and years from now, I am sure that he and his musical partners will be well remembered which is more than 1 can say for “Pretty Things.” “C.P.” has a bad habit that is evident with many music critics. When they’re having trouble evaluating an album, they throw in comparisons left and right to alleviate the problem of describing the music. Somewhere, you have to draw the line. - John Butler in flash” British rock group is absurd. His talents Guest Opinion by the Executive Committee Social Sciences College Despite obvious inconsistencies and logical errors, the Interim Report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning issued Feb. 12 establishes a clear enough pattern of judgement through its selection of departments and programs to be eliminated or drastically altered. The committee proposes to cut out or cripple over 25 units, a majority of which address specifically the needs of working people, trade unionists, community people and the nationally oppressed. Other units will be weakened through combining with other programs. Most immediately, the President’s Committee has recommended that Social Sciences College and Tolstoy College be “abolished.” These recommendations reveal an abhorently malicious attitude on the part of committee members towards the very people this University should be serving. Typical is the suggestion to out” the Biophysical Sciences “phase Department where the “student clientele is professional (in the broad sense),” in other words working people from the community, “and the program attracts women and minorities at a better than average rate.” Notable too is the irony and arrogance by which the committee dismisses the School of Architecture by “honorfing) the statement of the Dean that the School must grow to survive,” and thus recommending that it be phased out. Nowhere in the document has the committee applied any consistent criteria other than the bold faced denial of the needs of the people of Buffalo, the State and the country. We publically charge the President’s Committee on Academic Planning with an open and brazen assault on academic freedom by viewpoints; censoring with opposition capriciousness and crass manipulation of facts and data; with educational, philosophical and ideological bias; and, in the case of the Colleges, with dictatorial methods by issuing the recommendations over the heads of the current Charter Review Committee. Additionally, we must charge President Ketter with blatant one-sidedness and favoritism in the actual selection of the committee, and with the subsequently obvious disregard for the input of students and a majority of the University - .community. Ketter arbitrarily rejected three nominees to the committee submitted by the Graduate Student Association, and has seen to it that the committee does not reflect the rational aspirations of most members of the University. The Buffalo community should be warned that the University is fast becoming a closed institution. Higher tuitions, fewer faculty and staff, lower admissions, the flight to Amherst, and the possible termination of these programs that the SUNYAB to indicate serve administration Richard Korman Managing Editor Howard Greenblatt Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Business Manager Howard Koenig Arts Igjfif-*., To the Editor:' has no intentions of serving working people, national minorities, women, or the poor. People who have struggled for peace, democracy and freedom, people who have fought against racism, sexism and exploitation, people who have insisted on a truthful-and meaningful education will be denied room in the University. Indeed, the recommendations found in the report smack unquestionably of McCarthyism, and represent a severe and dangerous turn to the right. The academic and budget cuts serve as a convenient and timely cover for a political mop-up. Future dissent in the University will be uneventfully purged through the lilly-white of “academic evaluations,” “budget crisis,” and “lack of interest.” Future response to the needs of the oppressed will fall on the heels of the racist statement that the need for a Black Studies Program “appears questionable.” categories Likewise, charging Puerto Rican Studies with “dubious academic quality” is the crassest insult to a people who have been colonized and subjected to severe oppression at the hands of powerful American bankers and corporation owners such as those who sit on the Council of trustees of this University. The actions and projections of this Planning Committee are in direct violation of the principles of Affirmative Action which this University d»ims to uphold. They are probably violations of the Constitution. With respect to Social Sciences College, the committee charges that we have “so little involvement by persons qualified by established procedures,” but overlooks the fact that our courses and instructors pass through the same DUE process as do all other undergrad courses, as well as passing through the Colleges Curriculum Committee and the scrutiny of the Dean. The committee has hereto overlooked the fact that eleven departmental professors are members of the college and are actively involved in teaching or administrative work. The committee also charges that a “majority of the teachers in our college are other than regularly appointed University faculty.” This is true since we have fulfilled the college’s prospectus “by wider and more effective use of Community resources.” The committee has demonstrated an extreme bias against the inclusion of such teaching personnel in the University. In fact, it was only a year ago that one of the present members of the Academic Planning Committee attempted to block the appointment of a Black auto worker and union activist from teaching a course in the college on contemporary labor problems. It comes as no surprise that this administration favorite is found in the current role of hatchet-man. Nonetheless, we have now or have had teaching staff from such people in the community as doctors, newspaper editors, nurses, war veterans, trade union organizers, former Attica prison inmates, Day care teachers, community organizers and peace and civil rights leaders. In addition, the committee claims that the college has “shown a 10% drop in enrollment” in the past year. The facts are to the contrary: we have increased our enrollment every semester since 1973 (130) with the exception of this past Fall, 1975 when a lower figure (160) came largely as the result of inaccurate listings and ommissions in the Class Schedule. Our present enrollment has climbed to over 250. Why is all this information missing from the report? Why is it that the same information that is used to uphold the integrity of one unit is used to boot another out the door? Why is there no mention of the uniqueness of the Social Sciences College program in the nation? Why is there no consideration whatsoever given to the needs of “professionals (in the broad sense)," women and minorities? The irony of the situation is that the report of this “respected” committee calls into question the academic, intellectual and ethical integrity and qualifications not of certain “dubious” programs, but of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning itself. The real decision is not whether the need for necessary programs “appears questionable,” but whether there is any need at all for the proposals reached by a committee so constituted that its findings could be predicted from the start. The real question is whether there is any need for a reactionary, anti-human and racist committee. We have previously gone on record opposing all cutbacks in the University. We continue our stand and extend our hand to any and all sectors of the University under attack or threat, regardless of political beliefs. It is only through the concerted and united efforts of all members of the University that we can secure a just, vital and responsive future for our University. �a CT7 I l»v rs* Our Weekly Reader Take It Or Leave It; An Exaggerated Second-Hand Tale To Be Read Aloud Either Standing Or Sitting, Raymond Federman (The Fiction Collective/George Braziller. $11.95/$4.95, fiction, unpaginated) One of the pleasures of reading the thing that keeps you reading, I think, is that deep experience of recognizing your own voice speaking back to you from an eloquent page. This recognition may come as a husky seductive whisper in a profound part of you your head, or as a shout, a whoop of bound out of your chair feeling that you must applaud yourself, take a turn around the room, do a jig for the excitement of the thoughts which, .enypciated so smoothly, seem like your own. Or, perhaps if you are more sedate, you will merely nod, puff on your pipe, notice that you have thought this all before, and congratulate the author for his cleverness. Our resident novelist Ray Federman's recent work, Take It Or Leave It, is just that way; it brings that complicity between narrator and reader to sensuous proportions. His voices (and this novel is a catalog of voices) seem so close that the text literally arouses you, and you can feel warm breath down your back. Like most critics, I was in danger of forgetting what it is like to get lost in a work in order to find oneself again. Federman returned me to my readership. Being returned to reading through Take It Or Leave It is like waking up one morning in a more youthful, more athletic, wiser, and flightier body. Sprouting wings. This is a Story? From the very first page of Take It Or Leave It, the reader is set agog, disoriented, cajoled, bullied, seduced, buggered, bugged, and buggied about as though by a stand-up comedian-philosopher who exhorts us to laugh as we ponder our worldly ■ distress. (And this is a very worldly book.) The confusion arises from the typography, yet, a playful poetry-like disarray of words, letters, symbols, dashes, and curlicues on the page, but also from an incredibly wrdught arabesque of senses an element missing from his earlier novel. Double Or Nothing, which was a Chinese box game of meanings within meanings and tales within tales. In the chapter "Critifiction; Crap, Lie or Die?" the hero (if you can call him that) is telling his story to Moinous (a me-us mediator who interfers. — revokes, invokes, comments, disrupts, and whimsically shapes the story before it reaches us via the further "interruptions and vociferations" of the author — whoever that may be). The first "teller" is driving through a surrealistic snowstorm on some mountainous road in Vermont. As he wends his way along the road, hugging the hillside, he continually reminds his readers that on his right is the precipice, the gorge, the gully into which at any moment his Buick Special (probably the only true hero in the work) may plunge as they hurtle together through the blinding snow on their night journey. But, as we discover, the precipice is also about to engulf the story which is careening through the unnumbered pages pf the book in increasing confusion; at one point there is a dialogue between the author and reader, then a monologue of Moinous, or a fight between the teller and the hero, or Moinous and the hero, or all at once; at other points Federman writes about the meaning of fiction, about laughter, about the obsessiveness of reflexiveness about the split selves of narration, about the impossibility of meaning, of telling, of fiction. The hero peers through the snow and sees a spectral shadow in the middle of the road. It is Cam Taataam, (in real like, Campbell Tatum, a critic working on a book about Federman) a consumptive, doctoral near-blind scholar completing his to All “Key dissertation (Casatibon's Mythologies"?). The driver picks him up and is subjected to a harangue on Cam's project. It seems Taataam is trying to piece together the fictional and autobiographical fragments of an author he is not even sure exists. This author, Hombre de la Pluma English: (in Feathermerchant; in* German: Federmann), has escaped the Nazi concentration camps in which his family was destroyed, fled to America, lived in Brooklyn, fucked women in the Catskills, had various assignations with various other women, hung out with Charlie "Bird" Parker, and when Taataam last heard, was driving from his paratrooper barracks in North Carolina to Camp Drum, N.V., where he is to pick Up a paycheck and 30-day leave. (This, of course, is more or less the complete story line of Take it Or Leave It.) Why is Cam mucking around in the snow on a hillside in Vermont? Because he heard Hombre had left a treasure when he passed by, a key to all his work that would wrap up Cam's dissertation. After leaving Cam off in the snow, the driver watches as Cam jumps off the cliffside. Five minutes later, he notices he's been pickpocketed. A few minutes after that he drives his Buick Special over the gorge where it is miraculously saved by an enormous Christmas tree that spreads its arms to receive him aloft. One us left wobdering which is the treasure the car or the wallet. Or is it, as another author notes, that "the key is the treasure"? We critics are fussy. We tend to ignore that creative stuff erupting in the backyard to seek more exotic fodder. We wait for a kind of collective belch to signal that an author is now suitable for our attention, hoping the bowelstink still lingers about him so we have something to sniff at. Federman in this one incident among thousands in the novel has fixed a fiction so that it is rigged to go off in the mind, a timed bomb. It bears many similarities in structure to the work of Barth and Borges and Robbe-Grillet. But had any of the latter crafted these pieces, heads would nod: Borges makes one smile, Barth makes one dance, Robbe-Grillet, sleep, weep, die (he's so dead serious). So what if Federman has to jump up and down, wave his hands, scream, boast, strut, lie, beat his own chest, toot his own horn, bruit abrout, do backflips into cups of nonsense in order to catch out attention? When he does, we start one long, bowel-ripping, bellowing — laugh. This novel is bound to be misunderstood. In fact, it strives to be misunderstood. It is also extremely sensitive to the limits of the kind of diction, the fictional parameters, which it evolves. Federman is continually undercutting critics by including all possible criticism in its pages. His own words, I'm afraid, are doomed to be used against him. Take It Or Leave It is an experimental novel in the best sense of the word. I mean, all novels experiment, whether Great Expectations or Rebecca of Sunny brook Farm. But very few demand the kind of participation this novel does. Sterne's Tristram Shandy comes to mind, and we can trace the geneology of this work back to that tradition of the athletic novel of digressions, permutations, and convolutions that is basically farcical: a parody, a burlesque of fiction at the same time it strives to be by Randi Schnur Arts Editor Of all the images conjured up in the movie-goer's mind by the phrases “costume drama" or "period piece," perhaps the quickest and most obvious might reflect the bombast of a Griffith or maybe even the or the colorful exaggeration of a DeMille verbal eloquence of a relatively recent epic about British royalty or the cold elegance of Barry Lyndon. Antique costumes and archaic figures of speech can certainly be lots of fun to work with and, when chosen well, quite entertaining in their own right so entertaining, in fact, that they're liable to run away with the — — whole show. But to be truly moving, an effective period film must have something of the quality of an affecting memory; it must be evocative enough and yet close enough to pull one right into its world, to force one to admit, "Yes, I was there once, and that really is the way it was." All of the characters jostling each othe, in the amiable tittle ghetto of Hester Street look as if they could step right back into the yellowed photographs they resemble without bothering to rearrange a single hair or expression. (Indeed, the last credit to appear onscreen is director Joan Micklin Silver's acknowledgement to the Jewish Museum in Manhattan.) But these are not merely history book illustrations; these are the people we've found hidden in the backs of our grandparents' closets, the second cousins and great aunts who had only heard of American 75 or 80 years ago. Back to life We've heard all their stories, but, obviously, we never saw they had turned into Yankees (revered as almost a them superior order of being, until they got close enough) several years before we were born, Hester Street does a wonderful job of recreating this lost society of immigrants, a small world of which only the internal traces remain. Hester Street begins as the story of a young immigrant who has renounced as much of his Russian Jewish background as his dubious sense of decency will allow in favor of his all-consuming passion for Yankeedom. A dapper, trim moustache has replaced the full beard of his father; evenings at Joe Pcltner's Dancing Academy (with its "No Yiddish Spoken Here" sign translated into the forbidden language lest anyone miss the point) take up and his the time he must once have spent in the synagogue liaison with the grand Miss Mamie Fein, famous for her lovely face and her $365 in saved wages, more than makes up for the young wife and child left behind. Then the news of his father's death forces Jake's past up into an uncomfortable alliance with his present. Gitl and little Yossele whom he will insist, to his wife's great confusion, on renaming "Joey" must be sent for, and Jake's faith in the success of his own attempts at transfiguration is in danger of disappearing — — — — altogether. Out of time It is after Gill's arrival in her initial consternation, her eventual surprising strength, her fantastic ability to beat Jake on that the film acquires a fascination his own foreign terms beyond the merely historical. Seen in a tiny role as Art Garfunkel's teen-aged girlfriend in Carnal Knowledge and in a leading one in Wedding in White, actress Carol Kane's face and manner had an almost mystical quality, as if she belonged to another century. This must have been her world all along: Kane's delicate strength is the jumping-off point for the concise clarity of Gill's characterization. many scenes are shot straight Silver's odd camera angles downward or from a point that seems to be high above the opposite corner of a room emphasize the characters' remoteness in space as well as in time, underlining the newly-arrived Gill's puzzled "Where in America is a gentile?" Hester Street in 1896 housed a society complete in itself, and Jake's attempts at playing baseball with his son are as unconsciously self-parodic as are his other stabs at "fitting in." Silver’s camera set-ups express this anomaly quite as well as do so many of her characterizations. Made in black and white, often lapsing into Yiddish (with English sub titles), Hester Street is a small, old-fashioned reminder of a small old-fashioned world. Now playing at the Boulevard Mall Cinema, the film has some of the makeshift but even more of its dimly roughness of immigrant life remembered charm. — — — — — �Screening at Albright Bailie's sounds and images blend, unfold Tom^Lauria by Spectrum Arts Staff The films of Bruce Baillie, four of which the director screened February 19 at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery, work in the manner of a prism. Through Baillie, concepts as illuminating and dear as shafts of light fall upon different areas. A certain strand of his work deals with the fusion of images; his early films.strive for documented realism; later reels are streamlined and nearly unconscious. Batllie's initial works show an awareness of narrative structure. Photographed in black and white, they yield sociological glimpses into the labors of a Japanese gardener {Mr. Hayashi), old men and a go-go dancer in Frisco {On Sundays) and the Berkeley gymnastics team {The Gymnasts ). The film he screened last night. Here I Am, is collage-like Buffalo by storm band first introduced to our fair populace at this and freer in form. Here Am is a "bridge" across Baillie's collected Supertramp, the band which took at last spring, is giving it another go. Their long-awaited year's Summerfest. The show is tomorrow works. Its abstract, fluttery editing would later unfold into the rivers of return performance at 8 p.m. with all seat $6. Music Hall British Klainhans Ace, open with a will color that have distinguished his career. / Dream hues Two of the films he showed last night were probably selected for their cross-sectional illustration of the various elements of cinema that interest Baillie and make his work individual. Tung (1967) is literally a representation of a dream. Most of the footage was shot the same day the actual dream occurred. A female figure with a long scarf drifts in and out of frame in front of a blue-tinted, moon-like sun which hovers in a creamy purple sky. Red flashes dash in front on the indigo flow. Words of a poem that also figured in the real dream hit the screen in staccato-paced editing. White light sparkles sporadically throughout, like choppy waves in a reflecting pool. It disrupts the intensity of the blueness, destroying perspective and flattening images. The film is silent. The use of identifiable images is kept at a minimum. The silky, trance-like effect of Baillie's changing colors sets an almost musical meter. Each hue is enticing; it stands on its own, much like the colors in a Rothko painting in another room of the gallery. Valentin de las Sierras (1967) is an exercise in the sensuousness of color. Baillie shows a Mexican village, sunlight, interconnecting images that are edited together with a liquid smoothness. Often the camera remains out of focus, producing only shape and color. In these scenes, Baillie uses the blurred movement of color as a device to move from one scene to another. Erotic close-ups of eyes, waists, hands, and lips are all handled in terms of tactile impressions. the timeless People are caught, Catching not Americans. Within the last two years, there have been one man retrospectives of the Artist's work at both the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. His new interest in video theatre promises even further extensions of Baillie's very singular ability to blend and unfold sounds and images. eight The Spectrum Friday, 20 February 1976 . . Clunkard amidst successes she's at her most laborious The great character actor Leo McKern (his Thomas Cromwell in A Man For AH Seasons was The only mistakes Gene Wilder has ever made unforgettable) is a pudgy-faced, long-haired compose The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' Professor Moriarty. Conan Doyle's Moriarty was a Smarter Brother. Until the present time, Wilder's mathematical genius; Wilder's is driven to pleurisy by division. Though McKern is far too long series of sterling performances, especially in Mel Brooks' comedies (and most especially his whining, accomplished an actor to fall completely flat, like infantile Leo Bloom in The Producers, the sole any actor, he can only rise so far above his material. a penny-dreadful plot about the That material obstruction to Zero Mostel's walking away with that could have given film) established him as probably the finest recovery of a stolen document the film some cohesion if it hadn't been given such American comic actor in film. Like his major competition for that title. Woody microscopically short shrift by Wilder. With no plot Allen, Wilder wrote, directed and stars in his latest to speak of, and the characters being forced to run film. I don't think it would be wise to make any through shtick after dumb shtick, there's no sweeping statements about what Wilder "could have foundation to the film. The people who come out best are those who learned from Brooks," his long association with the ZOOO-Vear-Old-mensc/j notwithstanding. Whatever have comic personalities of their own, and Sherlock opportunities Wilder may or may not have had to Holmes' Smarter Brother has two fine clowns in learn anything useful in this type of work, he shows Marty Feldman and Dom DeLuise. All Feldman that mad, a shocking ignorance of comic construction and needs to gather guffaws is his face goggle-eyed cross between Fagin and a goldfish creation of character even his own. and his gangly marionette's body; that's exactly all he has, though.

Harry Herman seems to view.his son as a repugnant creature. He shows David little respect and is constantly annoyed by him. This impatience prevents him from adequately responding to his son's questions. many Herman quick constructs lies for convenience's sake, simply to silence David. The "lies" referred to in the title go beyond these obvious untruths. Zayda too could have been accused of lying through his imaginary tales, yet he never is. It is the intention behind the lies that makes the difference. The truly important lies concern Harry Herman's morality. Herman places money over truth, prestige over kindness and objects over people. It is this value system which is false the model Herman presents for his son is essentially a — lie. Yossi Yadin's performance as the Zayda stands out above all the other acting in the film. He is believable as an old and wise Jewish man struggling against the loss of sanity in the present world.

Jeffrey Lynas is fairly natural as David. His is a difficult role for such a young actor due to the wide range of emotions expressed. However, while watching David I was reminded of the overly sweet children on television's Family Affair. At times his innocent questions and childish mannerisms become too cute. Lies My Father Told Me, now playing at the North Park Theatre, can be enjoyed on many levels. It can be taken simply as an entertaining story about a dying breed of man.

Friday, 20 February 1976 . The Spectrum . Page nine �- Bavarian Radio Orchestra, Rafael Kubelik conductor, Gustav Mahler Symphony No. 1 {Titan) Before 1960, the music of Gustav Mahler had been largely neglected and probably would have been forgotten if not for the efforts of a few German maestros such as Bruno Walter and Wilhelm Furtwangler. It was in the last decade, however, that Mahler's great music first began to be popular in America, and with the advent of high quality stereo recordings, the public was able to have its first taste of that new and exciting music. As of today, there are numerous recordings of the Mahler symphonies, including three boxed sets containing the entire collection. It has been my pleasure to hear many of these, most recently those conducted by the well known Mahler devotee, Rafael Kubelik. These recordings are, in my opinion, the finest renditions of Mahler's symphonies available. In them Kubelik leads the Bavarian Radio Orchestra, and although that group of artists does not receive the recognition of the great London Symphony Orchestra or the Vienna Philharmonic, I regard it as one of the top European orchestras. Kubelik's approach to the Mahler first symphony is slightly unconventional. The work's subtitle pf "Titan" and its bombastic way nature lead some conductors to feel that it must be played this Many not what did want. exactly Mahler throughout, which I believe is parts of the symphony require subtle and tender treatment due to their genius soft and lyrical nature, and it is here that Kubelik proves his real as a Mahler interpreter. The opening bars of the symphony are marvelously simplistic, and reveal from the first Mahler's characteristic treatment of individual instruments. The haunting atmosphere of the horns gives way to a beautiful and gay passage dominated by strings and woodwinds. This is the major theme heard throughout the first movement and is interrupted at frequent intervals by the sorrowful strains of cellos, which, after brief development, are replaced by horns leading to a loud and majestic climax involving the entire orchestra. Following this is a relatively short and rhythmic movement with its frequently repeated theme shared by strings and woodwinds. An occasional horn intervenes, and this technique is one which becomes characteristic of Mahler in his later works. Interrupted only briefly by a soft playful melody, the movement ends amid wild exuberance. In contrast with the preceding two, the third movement is barely a whisper. It begins with rhythmic beating of drums accompanied by a solo cello. In a fugue-like manner, horns, winds, and the full range of strings are introduced along with a strikingly original use of the clarinet. The music is suggestive of shadows and once merry places which have been long deserted. It is during this movement that one first hears the foreshadowings of a much older and more mature Mahler. Stirringly melancholy, the music progresses through a number of variations and melodies, ending on the one with which it began. The conclusion to the work begins with a deafening crash and a lengthy outpouring of full orchestral power. The music is exultant and overwhelming, and Mehler considerately releases one slowly from its bewitching spell, only to introduce him to an intriguing representation of human distress and misfortune. Once again the mighty forces of Mahler's orchestra build and with their gradual fall, the listener first hears the notes of redemption in the horns. Before the end, the work climaxes once again and at the finish, one cannot help feeling that his every emotion has been touched, at the same time draining him of his last ounce of energy as if he had completed a hard day's work. Throughout the course of the first symphony, Marley instills vitality and deep emotion in his work, which is magnified and intensified by Kubelik in one of the great recordings of the century. -Michael Tetenman - yi f — * &L Jerry Garcia, Reflections (Round) Here we have the third solo effort of Jerry Garcia, and a pleasant surprise it is. Of course, all you Deadheads knew it would be great all along (I mean c'mon, man, like how could it be anything but intense?). Although this collection still falls short of the first Garcia, it far surpasses the last one in production, choice of compositions, and especially vocals. Jerry jutnps right into side one with "Might as Well," a great attention-getter. This is real rock and roll, not unlke the two record Skull and Roses collection. Keith and Donna Godchaux were excellent additions to the Dead family, as evidenced by Keith's solid keyboards and Donna's vocals. Without a doubt, Ms. Godchaux possesses one of the most powerful and interesting voices I've heard in quite a while. Although I feel that Garcia's voice sounds stronger than ever, it still falls short of the quality, that is a basic necessity of lead vocal work. Donna more than makes up for it on Reflections. Slowing things down to the usual Dead-oriented speed is "Mission in the Rain." John Kahn, bass player for Old and In the Way and The Legion of Mary, switches to synthesizer here and does a fine job. This is Garcia at his most unique, making music with that inimitable trademark, his omnipresent lead guitar. Flavoring each cut with tasty licks, Garcia's playing is as strong as ever. A song first introduced on the concert stage by The Legion of Mary, 'They Love Each Other" presents a soul influence, probably induced by Merl Saunders, former keyboard man for The Legion. With an introduction vaguely reminiscen of "Sugar Magnolia," and a heavy Lesh bass, the track is one of thes best on the album, and keeps the side moving. Rounding out side one is "I'll Take a Melody," a cut authored by New Orleans jazzman Allen Toussaint. Garcia handles all the feature instruments on here, including synthesizer and percussion. The latter of these two is outstanding, lending a snappy reggae influence to the song. The track that has been getting the most airplay, "It Must Have Been the Roses," opens side two. This Garcia-Hunter composition, originally featured on Hunter's own Tales of the Great Rumrunners, is once again enhanced by Donna Godchaux's vocal ' “Mr. Piano" Roger Williams, Virtuoso (MCA) First of all, let me say that Roger Williams has never been one of my favorite performers. Ever since I heard classical piano pieces played as they were meant to be played, I realized that Mr. Williams and his kind were taking material with real substance and turning it into musical pablum. To say I was somewhat prejudiced when I listened to the album would have been an understatement. I suppose I could have constructed an entire review around the sentiments of that first paragraph, but I don't think that would have been fair. Therefore, I set about looking for anyone who was familiar with this type of music. 1 did find a few people, but they really couldn't tell me what they enjoyed (or didn't enjoy) about Roger Williams. Just as I was about to give up hope, I realized that there was a group of experts all around me: my plant collection. So, with all of the plants in earshot, I put Virtuoso on the turntable. Side one was nice; I woke up just in time to flip it over. Side two must have been better, because I didn't wake up until a few hours after it finished. Then, with pencil and paper in hand, I started to gather opinions. I first stopped at the Sansevieria on the windowsill, a Roger Williams fan for longer than I can remember. "It's hard to believe that that was Williams," it said. "I mean, he's trying to be so mod, with that contemporary sound and all those synthesizers thrown in. There were only a few things I really liked, but I'll have to listen to it again. As I remember, none of it was as good as Liberace, but it beats your Wakeman album by a mile." My African violet, however, was much more quite energetic without impressed. "It was nice being intense. When I heard that first song, my apical — talents. Of the remaining three tracks, Hank Ballard's 'Tore Up Over You*' is my personal favorite. It rocks as well as "One More Saturday Night" or "Bertha." Larry Knechtel, who is usually found playing keyboards for the Los Angeles faction of California music, shares piano chores with Nicky Hopkins here, the featured keyboard artist on the latest Garcia tour. The last two cuts are "Catfish John," with an excellent instrumental track (whoever thought that Jerry could manage all those keyboards?), and "Comes a Time," a Dead relic culled from ancient bootlegs of the Dark Star period. It is exemplary Dead, with all the necessary components to get blown away by. Cosmic sounds, and all that. One major complaint about this solo release is that it really isn't solo. When every member of the Dead and their lyricist get together, doesn't that constitute a bona fide Grateful Dead disc? I guess not maybe it's because Weir doesn't get his customary three lead vocals. But excusing this weakness, the album is very enjoyable. And of course, I wouldn't dream of speaking ill of the Dead. —Barbara Komansky - - >. * The first of three Bicentennial dance programs by the University's Zodiaque Dance Company will be presented tonight through Sunday night at 8 p.m. in the Harriman Theatre Studio.

It seems like such ignorance, such childishness, such misunderstanding. Well before whomever it is decides to tear down another sign, let me give them a few facts. Each party is allowed to spend $24 per candidate on campaigning. Not an awful lot of money. And so we go buying paper and magic markers, asking friends and anyone interested to help us make signs. Each takes approximately two to three hours, this may seem a long time but without artistry, only hard work will suffice. So far we have lost six of these signs. Please realize that we are not allowed to use any more money than we have already spent, our supplies are running low. It seemed after Saturday night that each party had lost its share of signs. But as the week has progressed it seems that a wholly disproportionate number of SALT and PEPPER signs have been destroyed. On Monday night we lost fifty posters in core road alone.

Our town is actually a small village of about a thousand people, situated near the Pennsylvania line about two and a half hours southwest of Buffalo.

To the Editor. According to U.B. security, rape is not a problem on and around our campus. As women, we know this to be a lie. For over a year we have been attempting to organize an educational outreach and crisis counseling center for university women. Because of social and financial reasons women have been reluctant to devote much energy to this cause. Until more women are willing to commit themselves to the organizational work this entails, we can no longer function productively. We will continue to struggle around the issue of rape but we must postpone our original goal of establishing such a center until more women have the opportunity to actively involve themselves. We urge women to take the responsibility to reflect on their own feelings about rape and determine where we can proceed at this time to meet the needs of women on this campus.

One such reason is sodium nitrate, which is added to meat to make it red in color. Silbesterol, a sex hormone, is injected into cattle and poultry to “fatten fhem up” before slaughter.' All its danger to humans is unknown, but there is the possibility that it is the cause of various cancers. High-protein feeds, in addition to Silbesterol, are also used in fattening the animal before slaughter. With all these fattening agencies at work, it is no wonder that today’s beef carcass is one-fifth fat, one-fourth swine, and one-third lamb. Animal fat is not good for human consumption, since it is one of the major causes of heart attacks and intestinal cancer. The average meat-eater’s heartbeat is 72 per minute while the average non-meater’s heartbeat is 58. by Dana Dabbs Spectrum Staff Writer For health, moral and financial reasons, more and more Americans are giving up the animal for the vegetable in their diets. Many myths surround the vegetarian diet. It does not consist entirely of lettuce and carrots, as many believe. On the contrary, the vegetarian diet is an innovative and creative one involving a wide range of vegetables, fruits, grains and legumes. Depending on the individual, some diets are more restricted than others. While some vegetarians will eat eggs and dairy products, others do not out of a conviction not to exploit animals in any way. Protein Individuals unfamiliar with the vegetarian diet frequently are of the opinion that a plant-based diet does not supply sufficient protein for the individual. Because protein is vital to the basic chemical reactions of life and to maintain a healthy body environment, this claim must be explored. It is true that the essential amino acids found in animal protein are closer in percentage to human body requirements than are those in plants. However, various plant sources do provide enough biological protein when bombined properly. Soybeans and whole rice, individually, contain biological values similar to that of meat. Biological value denotes the amount of absorbed protein actually utilized by the body. As one plant source may be more deficient in an amino acid than another, it is necessary to combine various plant sources into one meal. In addition, fruits and vegetables contain essential minerals and vitamins which meat does not. “ ... for the Study of Aging®- - & — ■ Animal suffering Chemicals the Although slaughterhouse of proponents Many diet cite vegetarian scientifically-backed reasons. “Meat has been named the Passport/ApplicationPhotos UNIVERSITY PHOTO 355 Norton Hall Open Toes., Wed., Thurs. 10 a.m.~4 p.m. photos for $3 ($.50 per additional) I 1 j I 1699 Military Rd.

Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer It’s playoff time again for intramural basketball, and emotions are running high. There are six teams in strong for the competition championship, and the playoffs will separate the men from the boys. The pre-playoff favorites have to be The Heads who advanced to the finals last year but were eliminated. According to team captain Jim Corigliano, “We are a closely knit team and play well as a unit.” The Heads boast a strong front line highlighted by Jim Slayton, Norm Weber, and the tough Jim Randle. Hot Flash Royal Flash should also be a factor in the final rounds. Steve Silber runs the offense and claims that, “On any given night, we can beat anyone in the league.” He may have a point, Considering the high scoring potential of swingman Brian McCann and forward Ralph Reissman. Those two give the Flash an awesome offensive major Captain attack ... additionally, defensive Jeff Cook can be counted on to give fits to the opposing team’s hot scorer. The last team with a top chance for a championship is Med School III and IV. The Doctors boast a strong rebounding game led by Captain Brian Kaufman and Mike Anderson, in addition to Peter Wolk and Mike Hirsh who formerly played on the varsity basketball teams at Michigan specialist (that’s the right, at Brandeis University Wolverines) and University, reflectively. This all-star contingent is filled out by another defensive specialist and shot blocker, Scott Milchman. Captain Kaufman blames a lack of competition in the Thursday 8:30 league for his team’s partial lack of cohesiveness on the floor. Three other teams that are knocking on the championship door are The Orphans, Cannabis and The Rockets. Lack parents, have talent The Orphans are captained by Chester Sielski who boasts an “excellent defense” as his team’s forte. Forward Bill Stewart is said to be a “strong rebounder and excellent playmaker” which is a somewhat weird combination of talents, but maybe we have another Wes Unseld on our hands. The Orphans’ top scorer is Tim Palma who led his team to an overwhelming 105-31 victory last week. Cannabis is led by 6’10” center Ron Dahms who not surprisingly is their leading scorer and rebounder. The fact that 6’4” Greg Antoine is the playmaking guard indicates a lot of height for the pot smokers. They’ve been winning by an average of over 30 points a game. One wonders how this team gets mentally prepared for each game. The Rockets are led by flashy 6’3” forward Kevin Judd. James Mack is murder off the boards and “Marvelous Marv” captain bobbins is the key playmaker. According to Marv, “We go all the way. We’ve been blowing everyone out.” and 6’0” swingman Lenny Rollins who is reminiscent of Atlanta Hawks’ John “Drew with his leading ability and excellent timing off the offensive boards. Steve Saltzman is the epitome of the streak shooter. When he’s hot, it’s all over. Bennett Greenberg runs the ballclub with a great deal of finesse, and this team could surprise everyone. There are 16 divisions, each of which will be represented by two J Noodles not stiffs A dark horse possibility might be the undefeated Captain Noodle. They have tremendous IiTVttI I teams. The season is split up into two five game sets. If different teams win each set, they both go to the playoffs. If one team wins both sets, the team with the next 10 game record sees post-season action along with the best champion. The playoffs get underway Hall with Sunday in Clark eliminations continuing until the finals on February 29 at 1 p.m. in Clark Hall. | The New Century Theatre Buffalo 511 Main personnel headed by 6’4” center Eddie Skolnick who does it all, Women hoopsters win again The women’s basketball team beat cross-town rival Buffalo State Tuesday night 51-41, raising their season’s record to 8-3. Buffalo guard Clyde O’Malley had the hot hand, leading all scorers with 16 points. Karen Carr had 14 for State. The Bengals took a 17-14 half-time lead, as Buffalo could only manage to hit 20 percent of its shots. It was Buffalo’s defense which kept the game close. “We used a new zone defense which pretty much controlled their offense,” explained Bulls’ coach Carolyn Thomas. than the zone defense of the first half. O’Malley led the charge both and offensively defensively. “O’Malley played super defense and a super game,” Thomas said. Buffalo center Ann Trapper contributed eleven points and eleven rebounds for the Bulls, while forward Patty Dolan matched Trapper’s rebound total. Thomas was optimistic about upcoming Big the Four Championship, next Friday and Saturday at Koessler Athletic Center, despite the fact that Buffalo was .beaten badly by Canisius last week. Thomas did not feel that the result was indicative of Buffalo and Canisius’ relative strengths since the Bulls improved second half, while their full-court only shot 18 percent from the press proved to be more effective floor in that game. The Bulls also will be hoping for a bid to the New York State Division II Championships on March 4 at Hartwick. This weekend, eight Division II teams throughout the state will be picked, based on their season’s record, and on Wednesday the decisions will be announced. “It’s going to be very competitive,” Thomas said. “There are a lot of good teams around the city [New York]Meanwhile, Buffalo plays Genesee Community College And Coming Up WHh A SHIMMERING JEWELRY OF •CORAL RAKR SHELL MIKA JADE, A OIANT MIKA IVORY, AGATE RENOANTS EXOTIC MOTHER OF KARL ABALONS NUGGETS Or You Can Oiv# In Horn And Como Up WMi Tho Somo And So Thing * fRootenoblo ORIENTAL JEWELRY TOO! • Room 339 Norton All are invited to attend 1 i ...

It was obvious that the Rams were just plain “Look at Holloway. He wouldn’t get in the front better than the Bulls on Wednesday night, and door here,” said the Bulls’ coach. Buffalo Coach Leo Richardson was not offering any About 'Home, Richardson remarked, “Otis excuses. He said, “Let’s face it. We’re not going to be Home has been our biggest disappointment. Because their calibre with just seven kids getting help.” he’s a senior, he should be playing better.” However, there was one Bull who showed he could play with VCU anytime. Sam Pellom, who has Dependable Domzalskl stablized the Bulls’ front line all season long, had an The only kind words that Richardson had were outstanding game. He scored 26 points and hit-57 for guard Gary Domzalski. “Domzalski is the senior percent from the field. He also added ten blocked dependable most man we’ve got and one of the shots, and an incredible 31 rebounds, one short of finest men I’ve ever coached,” said young the school record. Yet Richardson was not overly Richardson. impressed by Pellom’s performance, commenting, The Bulls, who are now 8—15, have three more “Sam did a pretty good job, but he could have done games left on this year’s schedule. They face better. He let some people drive around him.” One of those driving guards for VCU was Cleveland State on Saturday at ECC North. They Jerome Henderson. He did as much for the Rams as close out their home season one week later against Pellom did for the Bulls, scoring 34 points and Geneseo.

Sostre was officially released - from Green Haven State February 9, Penitentiary following an executive order for clemecy issued Christmas Eve by Governor Hugh Carey. Sostre spent over seven years in various state prisons, mostly in confinement. Initially solitary convicted of selling S15 worth of heroin to a police informant, he was later found guilty of assaulting seven prison guards during an attempted rectal examination. After his conviction for the heroin sale, Arto Williams, the prosecution witness who bought the heroin, recanted his testimony, claiming he was forced into it by local police officials. Radical activities Many people believe Sostre was Organization an International, to the release of political prisoners as a victim of political repression. Sostre said he felt “totally vindicated” in his release from prison. “The power of the people of the world forced the hands of Carey and even higher federal officials,” he asserted. Sostre recounted a speech given by dedicated United Nations (U.N.) Ambassador Patrick Moynihan calling for the release of all political prisoners in the world. The speech prompted Amnesty International to send a telegram to Moynihan.

Sostre identified his goals as “lobbying for prison reform and helping to organize the community . , Sostre did not mention any conditions imposed by the state for his release. Despite speculation that Sostre must drop his appeal, he said he is not. “1 am going to tft&S . 111 y appeal as far as is necessary in the courts, until 1 receive the justice due me.” he asserted.

Sostre spoke proudly of his resistance to attempts to “break him" while in One fight “The fight whether of repression they be the people is the same, in New York City’s Harlem, Buffalo’s Last Side or anywhere," Sostre said.

Sostre taxing called for the “accumulated wealth” of the huge corporations in a higher bracket, approximately 90 percent of the totals. “This can easily be used instead of taxing the income of those people who can least afford to subsidize these tremendous conglomerates,” he said. “1 am not in the least afraid of returning to Buffalo,” Sostre declared. “1 am retur mg home to help remove those oppressors, Mike Amico and ‘Mad Dog’ Marshall, from political office and power.” he asserted.

Shapiro, Schwartz and Wahaab are all backed by full tickets. With at least three candidates running for each of the eight SA executive positions, this year’s campaign is expected to be more active than last year’s one-party contest. In addition to President, positions available are Executive Vise President, Treasurer, Sub Board Vice President. Directors of Academic Affairs, Student Affairs and Activities and Services and SASU delegate.

Scholarship funds in danger The State University Scholarship (SUS) funds are in danger of being eliminated for graduate and professional students, according to the Director of the Financial Aid Office, Joseph Stillwell. The final decision regarding the future of this source of financial aid will be made at a meeting of the State University of New York Board of Trustees February 25. BEOG grants caught in financial struggle by Cynthia Croaaen The Spectrum Special to (CPS) Rumors are flying around hundreds of university financial aid offices this spring as student and administrators alike second guess the future of Basic Educational Opportunity Grants (BEOG). Funding for the three-year-old student grant program has fallen so short for this academic year that some 800 colleges which applied for funds have been left in the lurch. Unless Congress decides to appropriate additional funds to the BEOG program for this year, student grants already awarded could be reduced by as much as two-thirds. The BEOG boondoggle is the result of some Office of Education miscalculations which predicted last year that only 56 percent of the students eligible for basic grants this academic year would apply for - • them. But applications for the federal funds poured into the Office of Education at the rate of 40,000 a week last fall and even now are arriving at the rate of 15,000 to 20,000 a week. The 950,000 expected applications jumped to more than 1.2 million candidates. At last count, some 74 percent of the eligible student had applied for grants. Average $830 Funds were appropriated to the BEOG program last year on the basis of the Office of Education’s prediction and for the first time in the program’s history, full grants of $1400 were awarded. The average grant for this year’s recipients was $830. But the cost to the government of offering bigger grants to more people rose from the early estimate of $840 million to more than $1 billion and the difference has still not been made up. While students across the country wait anxiously for spring payments, Congress is trying to decide where to find the money to fill in the gap. The Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) has asked Congress for $180 million more for this year’s grants, if necessary taking the funds from another student-assistance plan, the National Direct Student Loans. But it appears unlikely that Congress will agree to taking from the loan fund and giving to the grants. An alternative resource suggested by HEW is for Congress to borrow the $180 million from the 76-77 basic grant appropriation, set by President Ford in his budget proposal at only $1.2 million. HEW Under-Secretary Marjory Lynch recommended that the borrowed funds then be replaced with supplemental appropriation. Recalculations Without additional funding, Lynch warned, HEW would have to recalculate more than a million financial aid packages which had already been figured on the basis of full basic grants. And worse. Lynch said, the Office of Education would have to try to collect some aid money already awarded this year from students who may have dropped out of school. If the basic grant money is drawn from next year’s appropriation and Ford’s budget passes as proposed, the financial aid picture for next year will be even bleaker. Ford’s budget proposal for BEOG’s is based on a possible 1.27 million students applying for the grants, or 60 percent of those students eligible to apply. But with seniors eligible to apply for the grants for the first time next year, the number of those applying will probably be far higher. If the funding for BEOG’s is not increased, next year’s students may find the maximum grants available slashed from $1400 to only $735. And if the participation rate goes up to 80 percent, which some officials think is likely, the maximum grant could be more like $680 and the average around $428. Some 3400 post-secondary institutions received their full share of grant money before the funds dried up. But until Congress acts on some additional funding for the program, the other 800 or so schools will have to decide whether they can afford to make up the promised federal funds themselves or turn away students who can’t pay their fees. Page two The Spectrum Wednesday, 18 February 1976 . . allocated to meet tuition expenses would be increased significantly, leaving the burden of tuition costs on the students themselves. The fact that tuition will be increased by at least $200 per year will make the financial problems of. the 1,130 low-income graduate students even more serious if SUS is abolished, according to Stillwell. Howard Kling, President of the Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEU), reacted with outrage to the possibility that the University’s financial crisis will be absorbed at the expense of low-income graduate students. Kling noted that the meager assistantships of graduate students would be eroded to an even greater degree should SUS money no longer be available to cover tuition expenses. Kling felt it was unfair that those least able to pay are being asked to make even greater sacrifices to absorb the budget crisis at this campus. He indicated the University seems to be headed in an “elitist direction” insofar as it is becoming extremely difficult for low-income students to obtain the graduate degrees that are so necessary to gain access into the job market. budget by Philip Moran Spectrum Staff Writer SUS funds have been an important source of financial aid to meet the tuition costs pf low-income students. Although the proposal of the Trustees does not call for . the elimination of SUS money for undergraduates, Stillwell explained that most or all djf the graduate and professional students attending this University will be affected. Stillwell noted that 555 professional students and 575 graduate students receive financial aid from SUS. The elimihation of these funds will mean the loss of approximately $1,238 000 to students of this University. Dean Andrew Holt pointed out that $317,000 of this total is used for the payment of tuition expenses for graduate and professional students with tuition waivers. Stillwell stated that his office was lobbying very hard for the preservation of SUS money for post-baccalaureate students who have Teaching Assistantships (TA’s) and tuition waivers. He expressed the fear that even students who arc TA’s might have to pay part of their tuition if the SUS is lost. This may happen because the only other sources of tuition aid will not be sufficient to meet the tuition expenses of TA’s and Graduate Assistants (GA’s) should the SUS funds not be replaced, he said. Support GSEU Kling noted that the GSEU's initial demand is the guarantee of a minimum $4,000 assistantship and a tuition waiver for every TA and GA. He urged all graduate students to support the GSEU as the only viable way for graduate students to respond to the financial crisis confronting them. the Graduate Student Spokespersons for Association (GSA) have confirmed that their organization has been working on this problem intensively in the last few weeks. The President of the GSA, Terry DiFilippo, has been to Albany to obtain more information about the possibility that SUS money will be abolished, and is expected to give a report at the next GSA meeting detailing the Outrage The other sources of financial aid that covers implications and effects of the proposal to eliminate graduate tuition expenses are the Tuition Assistance Program the SUS funds. Spokespersons urged all (TAP) and a special portion of the University budget students to attend the next GSA meeting to learn allocated to meet the tuition costs of those students more about the financial crisis facing graduate receiving tuition waivers. TAP only covers up to students and the types of responses that are $600 per year in tuition expenses for each student. necessary for graduate students to effectively fight Stillwell expressed doubt that the portion of the the budget cutbacks at this University.

Buses used by Grand Island Transit and Ridge Road Express will be replaced by the same Bluebird coaches provided before their strike last November. Busing director Roger Frieday hopes the complaints by students about inefficiency and discomfort of the buses, provided by Gradnd Island and .Ridge Road on an “emergency” basis, will become a thing of the past. Frieday said Bluebird will be back to “100 per cent service” and will be at “a peak of efficiency we can all live with.” Frieday, who schedules, coordinates and monitors bus service between the four campuses, is responsible for transporting over an average 12,000 riders daily. “I honestly feel we are providing adequate service,” he said. Problems at the beginning of the semester caused by changes in riding patterns will be ironed out after initial adjustments in service are made, Frieday indicated. Problems inevitable Frieday said any transport system that 12,000 people between four shuffles separate facilities is bound to run into problems and complaints. He feels his office is doing the best they can under the amount of confusion surrounds the buses at the beginning of the semester,” he said, but “once we find out where extra buses are circumstances. certain “A needed, we can plug them into service and alleviate the problem.” The scheduling office tries to use the same schedule every semester, and then adds more buses where they are needed. The problem is that'the addetj buses are not shown on the schedule; for example, in the case of the Ellicott to Ridge Lea run, there will be a bus scheduled at a certain time, but there might actually be several buses there to take the overload. Poor communication between the bus office and students is a large problem, according to Frieday. Students have complained of buses leaving early. Frieday said buses leave early when they are full. “There’s no point in keeping a full bus at the stop when no one else can get on it,” he said. Complaints about bus service are also a “Any complaint sent to this office will be investigated by either myself or the bus company,” Frieday said, but added that complaints sent only to The Spectrum, Student Association (SA) or other student organizations could not be dealt with by his office. He feels confident his office can handle any complaint with sufficient information. “If you have a complaint or a problem with a bus, it is essential we know the date, time and bus number.” Frieday’s office phone number is at the bottom of every bus schedule; either problem. calling or dropping a note with all the information into campus mail will get the problem to his attention. Then he said, either he or the bus company will investigate and get back to the student who made the complaint. With the help of the student Bus Committee and former committee members, Prieday said, he can monitor service and find out what’s going wrong. Prieday makes spot-checks to try to keep the buses working as efficiently as possible. He also instructs all drivers to wait two minutes past scheduled departure times to help pick up passengers whe would usually have missed the bus. “I honestly feel we have covered a in the 10 to 20 majority of trouble spots minutes after most day classes, four to eight buses leave either way to move the students.” Prieday observed Bert Black, - SA North Campus Director, agreed with Frieday’s view. “ThehusTHg situation at this campus has been improving over the last three weeks as traffic patterns have stabilized. However, University students may be unrealistic irt expecting a luxury ride every time' they travel between service is, at best, campuses. This ,'' functional.” Black feels the" only answer is the complete move to the Amherst campus, but predicted there may be a large ’ transportation problem construction there is next year since slowing down. “1 am conviced that the bus situation next year may be critical if additional funding is not found!” Social work students concerned over accreditation by Jenny Cheng Contributing Editor Charging breach of contract and “bad faith,” upper division students School reacted in the Undergraduate of Social Work have strongly against the University’s decision to phase-out the program. At the time these students were accepted to the school, they were told the program was “approved” pending and a senior. “We are told that we will be judged by schools on our individual merits alone. This may be the case at a few schools but you can’t tell me that the best schools will accept me over a person with an accredited degree, if we measure up equally in academics and field evaluation.” “The administration also tells us that if one school accepts you, you should be satisfied,” Harris continued. “This is clearly a restriction of our freedom of accreditation. However, since the school’s budget has been cut severely, the undergraduate choice and opportunity. Why shouldn’t students from this University have the assurance thaV program is being phased out. In they Could apply to top graduate addition, the school’s “approved” expired, status has and accreditation is not being sought. Undergraduate Social Work students argue that the fairly inexpensive accreditation process is vital to the professional and educational future of each of the 110 students enrolled. In 20 states no one without an accredited baccalaureate social work ’degree can be certified or granted a license to practice social work. In addition, students argue tha the chances of receiving advanced standing in a graduate school for students from a non-accredited undergraduate program are slim. schools,” she added. Students who have researched Social Work programs found that out of 85 graduate schools, 39 require that applicants have degrees accredited before receiving advanced standing, eight prefer accredited degrees, and the rest do not offer advanced Accreditation unnecessary? “The administration has told that accreditation is unnecessary,” said Theresa Harris, us standing at all. However, The Spectrum has been told that Sherman Merle, Social Work School Dean, discovered in his research of two graduate schools that individual merit is considered heavily, whereas an accredited background is not.

Butler his added that it was understanding that Merle intends to write a forrq letter explaining the circumstances of the expired status approved and the University’s decision not to seek accreditation. This letter, he explained, should be sent to each graduate student’s potential school. ” another school if they want to from an accredited institution, she added. Some now argue, however, that they were accepted to this University under false pretenses. If they decide to tranfer, they fear that they will have to lose several credit hours graduate and enter as juniors. “The University was aware of the fact that SUNY Buffalo had lost its approved status as early as the winter of 1974, yet they admitted a junior class, and failed to inform them of this,” stated Donald Goldberg, legal counsel for the students, “Furthermore, 1 975, by September the University knew they were no longer seeking accrediation. Again, they failed to notify any of the students by an official memo until the winter of 1975.” “That is, they have a written ‘contract,’ they have relied on this contract, and now they are suffering detriment, due to the reliance.” Goldberg emphasized, however, that the students are first seeking reversal of Merle’s decision not to seek accreditation. The students are scheduled to meet with University President Ketter today. “If Dr. Ketter decides that he will not move to reverse Dean Merle’s decision, we will go to court,” Goldberg threatened. “If our degree does not achieve status by the an accredited Social Work Council on Education, it has no professional credibility,” Harris emphasized. “A Social Work degree without accrediation is merely a liberal arts degree, and it has no value,” professional she concluded.

GSEU demands: a ten-month salary increase from TA's; the $2889 to $4000 for GA's and reinstatement of the 165 layoffs; guaranteed funding throughout graduate degree programs; insurance coverage against employment related accidents and liabilities; and the institution of a hiring policy reflecting the population composition of New York State.

The increases will amount to 10 percent in expenditures, and 7.5 percent in actual awards, according to Robert Fitzpatrick, Acting Vice President for Research. Last year the University secured approximately $19 million in expenditures and $1 1 million in awards. The University is awarded 95 percent of its research grants from various departments in the federal government, the largest portion coming from Health Education and Welfare (HEW). Fitzpatrick stated that, “$13,958,841 comes from HEW, $9 million from the National Institute of Health, and $1,127,787 from the National Science Foundation.” Money also is distributed through the Department of Defense, Energy Research Development Administration, National Aeronautics Space Administration, Department of Labor and the Department of Commerce. Other sources The other five percent of research grant money originates from private foundations, state and local governments, and industries. Asked why federal money has increased over the past year, Fitzpatrick said. There has been more research activity and it has been more successful Increases in federal grants will have no bearing, however, on the Graduate Student Employee’s Union’s (GSEU) current efforts to secure salary raises for Graduate and Teaching Assistants, “Those are state budget people, and that’s a payroll problem.” Fitzpatrick explained, “The federal research money comes from sponsors, so their problem does not lie here. If it did, either the budget has to be increased or we accept less individuals.” Budget analyzed Graduate School Dean MacAllister Hull, commenting about cuts for graduate assitance proposed in his Executive Budget, said, "We have analyzied the proposed budget cuts and we know what it means. This University has the largest grad school in the SUNY system, and it will difinitely suffer in a lot of areas if the budget is cut, especially if the State University Scholarship is cut or eliminated.” Hull said he meets with the GSEU whenever possible and he always tries to be fair.

Long-term programs 1 Short-term programs Name Address City- School State -Zip �Mail registration for voters is struck down A state law which would have allowed voter registration by mail was struck down by State Supreme Court Justice Joseph S. Mattina. The judge ruled that the law is unconstitutional because it violates a section of the state constitution, which requires personal registration in cities and villages with 5,000 inhabitants or more. Judge Mattina said he regretted striking down the law because it would have expanded the electorate. But he said he had no choice. “Any law enfranchising more people is valuable to a democratic society,” Mattina told the Buffalo Evening News. However, he explained that the state constitution can be changed only by amendment. The suit was brought by the Erie County Republican Party, which was regarded by most observers as the party most likely to suffer if the law had been validated. It is generally assumed that most of the currently unregistered voters in urban areas, if they were permitted to register by mail, would enroll with the Democratic Party, which already holds a 2—1 enrollment edge over the Republicans in Buffalo. The number of unregistered voters in Erie County is approximately 300,000. A group calling itself the Bicentennial Coalition for Voter Registration had hoped to get most of them registered through the mails. The Coalition includes the League of Women Voters, Common Cause, BUILD, the Urban League, the American Civil Liberties Union and the NAACP. In addition to the Coalition, the Buffalo AFL-CIO Council and the Democratic Party had planned a mass drive to register new voters, but their members will have to wait for the results of the planned appeal on the decision. A number of persons did register by mail between December 1, when the law went into effect, and the time when it was struck down. Those registrations were supposed to be kept separate by the Board of Elections, pending the Supreme Court decision. Anyone who registered by mail with the Erie County Board of Elections must register again, in person, in order to be eligible to vote. News analysis Colleges might be squeezed Editor’s Note: This is the first in a series of articles on the recently released report of the President's Committee on Academic Planning. by Mike McGuire Campus Editor This University might well be a different institution in the near future if the report of the President’s Committee on Academic Planning released last.week is followed strictly. The Colleges would not be able to offer courses for credit, although they would exist in name, as ‘‘social and intellectual loci” for students. If the report does not meet with strong objection by the Faculty Senate and is approved in its entirety by President Robert Ketter, the recent this a University trends toward making graduate/professional center with strong biases toward the sciences and technical subjects will gain momentum, at some expense to undergraduate studies and less technical areas. At a soon to be scheduled meeting between Ketter and the “voting membership” of the Faculty Senate, members will presumably tell the President their reactions to the report. ( Grim task The Academic Planning Committee was appointed by Ketter in September, and charged with evaluating nearly every aspect of academics at the University. In its report, the committee called for (Black Studies, abolishing three departments Biophysical Sciences and Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations) and two of the Colleges (Tolstoy and Social Sciences), ending credit-bearing courses in the Colleges, merging some programs and departments, and a phasing out of a number of centers and institutes. The report alludes several times to the enormity of the committee’s task and the little time members had to complete it. The hastiness with which the committee acted shows up on several occasions in the report when criticisms of a program are listed with only a meek conclusion that it should be maintained at its current financial level. The committee also measured the Colleges against their pre-chartering aims, despite the fact that this changed markedly during the chartering process. Bewildered Two of the programs marked for elimination were so chosen because the committee said it had little information on the program. Apparently, the committee did not gather many facts on Social Sciences or Tolstoy Colleges, since they were judged on grounds rejected earlier by the Colleges Chartering Committee. Puerto Rican Studies, which naturally caters to Puerto Rican students, was criticized on the grounds that it served a “narrow clientele.” While the Colleges Chartering Committee worked hard to evaluate the Colleges fairly, the Academic Planning Committee seems bewildered by the refusal of the Colleges to act like departments. The committee referred several times to allegedly questionable qualifications of Colleges’ instructors who were not drawn from regular departments. The committee referred to a particular center as a “low-cost operation which generates considerable visibility for the University,” Nowhere in the evaluation of that particular program is there any reference to what the center does or its quality. There were long overdue recommendations in the report, mostly concerning consolidation of certain programs that have similar thrusts and subject matter. The report called for a committee to study the Health Sciences programs, since Academic Planning members admitted they lacked the specialized knowledge needed to evaluate clinical programs. However, they specifically called for non-experts to serve on the committee to provide fresh insights. Surprise evaluation ■ A mild surprise came when the committee wrote on Women’s Studies a highly laudatory report College, which has been an object of attack by the administration in the past. The committee essentially agreed with the external evaluations of the program which have referred to its national reputation. This will have important implications in any future debate over Women’s Studies. In all likelihood, however, the report will be mulled over by the Faculty Senate and Ketter and will not go into effect in its present form. While the committee has indeed labored hard under a difficult charge and made some important recommendations, there are serious gaps in its information. These gaps will have to be filled before any realistic consideration of this University’s programs can be carried out, and hopefully the meeting with Ketter will be the first step in completing an inconclusive effort. • WbtN am/Fm/tv an<1 rlit Wm.Henoerer co.

Page five �Appealing to the Trustees Editor's Note: The following letter, dated February 11, 1976 was sent by former Student Association President Frank Jackalone to Mrs. Maurice Moore, Chairman of the SUNY Board of Trustees. It concerns ensured student participation in planning the Parcel B commercial complex on the Amherst Callous maneuver Campus. Dear Mrs. Moore: To the Editor. I am writing to you as the past president of the Student Association at SUNY Buffalo, and a current the Physics Department’s crude method in dismissing member of the Executive Committee of the Student appears Beth Dr. Eric Beth as course instructor. Dr. of the State University of New York. Assembly to have been the victim of departmental politics, The main intent of this letter is to refer you to which has achieved its ends by using the students as the proposed contract concerning “Parcel B” on its means. Dr. Beth was informed only four days before SUNYAB’s Amherst campus between State classes resumed that he was to be the course University and the UFB foundation, Inc. A preface, instructor. The students, dissatisfied with this however, should be included. During my tenure as Student Association sudden switch, were encouraged by the chairman of with which I the department to submit petitions stating that Dr. President at SUNYAB, the students channeling their primarily worked were was lecturer and should Beth an incompetent therefore be replaced. After three weeks of “serious extracurricular constructive energies toward deliberation,” Dr. Beth was dismissed, and the developing student services on campus. The campus administration at the time was fully supportive of previous instructor of Physics 113 reinstated. This manuever was executed in a callous manner our programs, and the campus community the gained by that disregarded both Dr. Beth’s personal integrity as considered the experience a human being, and also the students’ needs. The participating students to be of the highest Physics Department has offered no explanation for educational value. Over the past few months, however. Dr. Robert its action and appears unwilling to do so. It is quite president of SUNYAB, has made a complete Ketter, political differences evident that interdepartmental his take priority over human feelings and quality reversal of the favorable position that he and and explicitly expressed to me and implicitly staff education. In the words of Albert Einstein, “The highest other students last year. One by one, many student services have been questioned and even threatened as religion is the service of humanity.” to the right of existence on campus and the ability Arlene Kopolsky to be operated and managed by students. The net effect is that the previous constructive energy of these students is now being channeled into growing, open hostility. Indeed, even the apathetic students of the past are now visibly angry. The current threat to student services on my campus is projected into the future by the debate that is taking place over Parcel B. It has been To the Editor. mentioned in discussions that Parcel B should be “commercially operated,” and that those businesses This is in reply to your editorial wherein you defend the existence of Tolstoy and Social Sciences which have already “contracted” UBF would have first preference over student-operated services. Most Colleges by appealing to “academic freedom,” importantly, it has been suggested (and I am addition to a well-worn cliche, is, being which, in when pushed to extremes, a thoroughly ridiculous tempted to use the word “demanded”) that there shall be no student services located in other, notion. No one in his right mind would justify a state-operated facilities on the campus which shall “compete” with those business concerns in Parcel B. geography professor teaching that the earth is flat or an astronomy professor teaching that the earth is the I’m sure that you are aware of the SUNYAB students’ request for student membership on the center of the solar system by appealing to academic frfeedom. Yet this is what is constantly done in the UBF Foundation Board of Directors. 1 think I can speak for those student representatives as well as fields of philosophy, politics, et. al. The presumption seems to be that truth does not exist in these fields myself by stating that this request is being made (or is at least not discoverable). The point becomes: why bother having such departments at all? Also, isn’t the appeal to academic freedom itself an appeal to some objective truth? It comes down to this. All societies and all individuals accept certain things as self-evident. Our society is based on certain notions that are incompatible with the indoctrination going on in the two aforementioned colleges. This University, an To the Editor. institution supported by the state, has a moral obligation to drain these left-wing fever swamps. In We’d like to alert our fellow students to a the happy event that this occurs, the administration disturbing situation in this University and hopefully not such should be commended, condemned. In fact, save anyone else from the same predicament. action is long, long overdue. At the beginning of this semester we registered for a Shakespeare course with Dr. Charles Mitchell. Stuart Gudowitz From his course description we were led to believe it was going to be a “conceptual and psychological” approach. What we found, instead, was blatant sexism and teaching incompetency no learning. Instead of discussion or even intelligent lecture we encountered a constant and unending harangue about the destructive, low bestial and vile qualities of women. Not only was this presented in an Vol. 26, No. 57 Wednesday, 18 February 1976 As a student of Physics 114, I am appalled at Left-wing fever swamps with the knowledge and appreciation of the Trustees’ prior decision to strengthen representation on the Faculty-Student Associations and in their warm reception toward the student representative on the Board of Trustees. In this light, 1 respectfully urge the Trustees to provide a contract which would require at least one-third student membership on the Board of UBF Foundation. This proposal and, indeed, the whole situation, is exactly analogous to the Trustees’ new regulations governing Faculty-Student Associations. Both the FSA and Parcel B provide campus services which intend to benefit members of the university community, of which students make up the vast majority. It is apparent that the Trustees have seen the need for students to be well represented on the campus FSAs. Without detailing the many problems which have faced us in our efforts to ensure adequate student participation in the decision-making process of that essentially student service corporation, let it suffice to say that we have continually faced greater barriers and discouragement than nearly any campus across the state. Even now, after much conflict, we are barely in compliance with the minimum standard for student representation on our FSA Board as adopted by the Trustees in December, 1975. I report this only to point out to you the urgency of our problem with regard to the development of Parcel B. Our unfortunate past gives us no sense of assurance that the pre-concieved attitudes toward student involvement in determining the priorities of student services will be any less paternalistic in this case. Ironically, it is our campus which provides the best example of how students, through an entirely student-controlled corporation, can responsibly and ably meet the many diverse and complicated needs of 27,000 students, ranging from daily movies to comprehensive health services. Sub-Board 1, Inc. has been in operation for over 5 years now, and has continually shown that it can accountably manage its financial operations which gross in excess of one million dollars per year. With these thoughts deeply embedded in our minds, I believe that the only responsible solution now lies in your hands. Clearly, without the adoption of the above proposal, the situation at SUNYAB has no real hope of resolution. Without student participation, I think that it is fair to say that SUNY Buffalo students would firmly oppose the further development of Parcel B. 1 have confidence, however, that the Board’s past sincerity and concern for students’ needs and contributions will be maintained in this case as well. I truly thank you for your consideration Sincerely, Frank L. Jackalone Reading into Shakespeare — The Spectrum Editor-in-Chief — offensive and vulgar manner, but it was difficult to tell if this was William Shakespeare or Charlie Mitchell talking. Certainly there are biased, bawdy attitudes in Shakespeare, but this man (Mitchell] is obsessed by the ideas, presents them in a narrow and vicious manner and has not changed with the world in the last 400 years. We’d like to warn prospective students who don’t get their rocks off on listening to this kind of bullshit to stay away from Charlie Mitchell’s class.

The topic of this letter concerns our auxiliary student union, namely the UGL. During my last visit, I was tooling away in an attempt to memorize the structures of 20 amino acids, four nucleotides and 28 carbohydrates. In the midst of the usual background clamor there was an exceptionally loud conversation as to who is the worst guard in the NBA. Being almost certain that even Walt Frazier doesn’t know the configuration of 20 amino acids, four nucleotides and 28 carbohydrates, I asked the gentlemen if there could be some quiet and if Norton wouldn’t be a better place to carry on such a causerie. I was then informed that Norton would not indeed be the ideal place to talk and that if I wanted to study, I should go to Lockwood. I quickly apologized and thanked the gentlemen for apprising me of the proper procedures. From now on I’ll study in Norton Union. M. Rosebud This letter is in response to Mike Cray’s letter printed in The Spectrum Monday, February 9. Mr. Cray says that he is sad that he “can’t afford college now.” The thing that makes me sad is that someone in, as I compiite, his mid-twenties has such a negative attitude toward the world. I can only hope that perhaps Mr. Cray wrote the letter in a fit of although that hardly seems possible frustration' since he is taking a very drastic step by leaving - school. Mr. Cray also stated that one of his greatest problems in life “has always been an absurd propensity for placing more importance on a human being’s happiness and ability to interst with the world than on things which bear titles.” If this is so, it would seem that he should not let these titles (“Vice President for Facilities Planning,” “School of Business and Management” ..) affect his attitudes. They are only titles, perhaps confusing and misleading at times, but certainly nothing over which . to lose sleep. Perhaps if all the negative thinkers, such as Mr. Cray, leave this University, there will be more room which I have found is for those who come to learn quite simple if one puts his mind to it. Mr. Cray would probably call me naive, but 1 have always been under the impression that college is a place one goes to further his knowledge and is not intended as a soap box for frustrated public speakers. — Pamela Camming The Lebanese situation To the Editor.

No longer will the peaceful Lebanese have to worry about international gangsters like the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) endangering Lebanese security by invading other states using Lebanon as a home base. Now the PLO will be subject to the same laws that all residents of Lebanon are subject to, instead of being able to make up their own. It was because of strong Western Christian support that the Lebanon is once more safe for all of its citizens. This is the way people should be speaking of the current Lebanese situation; that pressures from the West (primarily the USA) kept Syria from taking over the world’s only Arab democracy and turning it into another Arab Moslem dictatorship. It should have been that way. One should be able to assume that if the Western, democratic, Christian countries were to do nothing else, they would protect the integrity of other Christian countries instead of watching them sink in seas of blood. One should be able to assume that the Pope, if he did nothing else, would raise the strongest possible outcry at the wanton slaughter of innocent Christians. Instead, we have been treated to a show of what Western civilization is really all about. We have watched helplessly as the Arab world’s most civilized, only Christian country has become a mere puppet of a deadly coalition of Moslem expansionist Syria and the /Palestinian terrorists. Since 1 am a Jew, it has been very interesting for me to watch this amazing show of Christian brotherhood in action. It has all become clear to me. From the beginning, the Lebanese Christians did not stand a chance. The religious war that was taking its deadly toll of innocent civilians was not that important to Western interests. The only thing that was important to the West was that Israel stay out of the conflict. The apparent openness on the part of the Syrians in showing the world that they were arming the Moslems and Palestinians in Lebanon and as a result they were causing the conflict, greatly alarmed Israel. It realized that would possibly use Lebanon to open another front in the event of a Mid-East war. This then would have been the one and only reason for Israel to want to intervene militarily; that an enemy sworn to destroy it was attempting to gain control of more territory in order to widen its military options. The USA, that great civilized country which has sold more peoples down the river than any other country in modern history, told both Israel and Syria publicly to stay out of the conflict. Privately, the conversation probably went along the lines of the U.S. telling Israel that aid would not be forthcoming if Israel intervened, and begging Syria not to be too nasty to the Christians. This was done despite U.S. knowledge of the following facts; The Syrians were openly arming the 1. Moslems and Palestinians; The Russians were delivering highly 2. sophisticated arms to the Moslems; The Palestine Liberation Army is for all 3. intents and purposes, part of the Syrian army; 4. Israel depends upon the U.S. a great deal for its security and the U.S. has no such trump card to pull on the Syrians. It is very interesting that the only hope the Christians had was the Jewish state. It has always been a source of embarassment to the Moslems Arabs that there was, amongst all those Moslem Arab countries, two non-Moslem states; one Christian and one Jewish. Now there is only one non-Moslem state in the region. From various discussions I have had with Lebanese Christians, I have surmised the following: The major complaint on the part of the 1. Christians of Lebanon was that they were forced to play nursemaid to the Palestinian terrorists while these terrorists endangered Lebanese security by carrying on a war with Israeli children. Lebanon will now become a Moslem state 2. with the Christians being a persecuted minority, like all other non-Moslems in the Arab world. I see now, that while all so-called “progressive” forces in the world call the conflict in the Lebanon a class war, it is really a religious war which is aimed at the Moslem domination of a previously independent national group. The U.S. government recently lauded the Syrians for their peacemaking efforts in Lebanon. The U.S. should also laud the Iraqis for ridding the world of the meddlesome Kurds, or they should congratulate the Sudanese Arabs for murdering tens of thousands of Black Southern Sudanese. Samuel M. Prince Wednesday, 18 February 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Wrestlers comeback against Cleveland State falls short ■ by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer The wrestling Bulls completed their 1975-76 regular season dual match competition last Saturday by losing a squeaker to Cleveland State 17-15. Unquestionably the most exciting and frustrating match of the season,' the Bulls literally wrestled to the last possible second for a victory, but unfortunately came up empty handed. Closing its regular season with a record of nine wins and eight losses, Buffalo has once again posted a winning season. But losing to Cleveland State in the seasonal finale was not in the Bulls’ plans. The Bulls started the day off with freshman Tony Oliveri losing his decision. Next, Ray Pfeifer brought the Bulls back with a strong win. Swimmer Ted Brenner and diver Keil Wurl each broke two school records last week against Fredonia. Yet this week's Athlete of the Week goes to another swimmer, sophomore George Finelli. Finelli didn't break any records last week, but he did swim one leg of the Bulls' victorious 400 yard relay. He also won the 200 yard Butterfly, and therein lies his brilliant success. Finelli beat out Fredonia's Bob Gonzenbach, an All-American who had never before been defeated.

The major obstacle in the Bulls’ attempt at victory was official Wright. His laissez-faire policy of officiating cost the Bulls close decisions, while Drasgow handed his Viking counterpart a shutout. With two matches remaining, the Bulls were down 14—12. the first of those was the fiercest match of the day. Part-timer Rich Bopp, who responded last week with a victory, came through again with another victory. Although Bopp put the Bulls ahead 15-14, he had to overcome overwhelming odds. the match and gave coach F.d Michael a lot of heartaches. “1 thought the officiating was deplorable,” said Michael. In each of the matches invovling Tundo, Martinech, Drasgow and Bopp, the Vikings stalled throughout each match but it was quite rare to see it called by Wright. Although victorious. Viking coach Dick Bonacci admitted that the officiating was not of good Viking wrestler Tony Stabile obviously had one tremendous talent, that of being the dirtiest wrestler the Bulls have faced this year. On six occasions, Bopp received “cheap” shots from his Viking opponent. Somewhere in his career. Stabile went astray losing sight of the difference between fighting and quality. But right now, Michael and the Bulls don’t have to worry about the area’s officiating since post season play is upon them. This week the Bulls will be at Oswego wrestling. While out of bounds, Bopp landed on his head twice, his shoulder once and went sprawling off the mat on the other three occasions Yet through it all, official Wright continued to do what he had done since the match nothing. But Stabile’s began State for the Invitations New York State Tournament, competing against 25 top schools in New York State.

Instead, they left nearly broken Johnny Moore to clinch the hearted, as they were only, able to victory for the Bulls. Moore, named the game’s first star, split the series with the Lakers, winning the opener 7-6, but stopped 40 shots in the contest, including 16 in the second period dropping the second game 9-4. when Oswego had six power play A sweep over the Osw$gonians opportunities. practically have assured the would Per haps the biggest save of the Bulls a spit in the ECAC Division must came late in the third night butthey playoffs, now II after Moore when, depend on Oswego in order to period, sneak in the back door. If the stopped two point blank shots, Lakers have difficulty with their the puck slid to the slot to Laker remaining Division 11 games, then defenseman Dan Ane who ripped the Bulls may be able to edge in, a slapper towards the Buffalo based upon their 9—4—1 Division cage. But Moore’s best friend, the II record. “We can’t be ruled out goalpost, stopped this one, and yet,” said Buffalo head coach Ed preserved the Bulls’ win. “Hey, Wright. “Our chances hinge on that was lucky for me. The what Oswego does with their goalpost is part of the goalie’s equipment,” laughed the chunky netminder afterwards. The Bulls had jumped to an early 3—0 lead before ' Ray* Seeback, a man who would haunt them later, scored for Oswego to end the first period. The game’s middle stanza was a comedy of errors on the part of the officials, who called nine penalties in the period, six on the Bulls. The calls led to four power play tallies in the second period. “Look at the types of penalties they’re calling; elbowing and were interference. If we aggressive, we probably would have spent the whole night in the box,” said Wright after the game. Gruarin nets winner Ray “Toughie” Gruarin scored the winner for the Bulls at 13:37 of the final period when he took a Bill Busch pass and deposited it behind goalie Steve Paluseo, who seemed bewildered for much of the game. The play originated on the right side, where Busch fed the puck to his lanky center, Gruarin, who broke in on the net with Tommy Haywood on his left side. Paluseo braced himself for a hard shot, so Gruarin slipped the puck —Vazquez skaters away from the crease, as in each case, the man in front took a quick pass and slammed it home. ‘They came out in high gear before we could slow it up,” said Coach Wright. “In a game like this you’d better find some way to slow them down.” The Bulls didn’t. The Great Lakers buzzed around the Buffalo cage en masse, and kept Moore active all day long. In particular, little Ray Seeback proved to be a thorn in the Bulls’ side, as he bagged four goals and set up another. The shifty center scored the winner in the second period when he fired a 20 foot screen shot past Moore’s outstretched Oswego the ice into the cage. “I just used Haywood as a pick. The defenseman went with him, so I just walked in,” said Gruarin. “It was an easy shot, and Billy Busch gave me a real nice pass.” It was one of the last nice the Bulls did for things themselves, as the Great Lakers reversed roles on Saturday, and completely swamped the Buffalo squad. The Bulls found themselves down 4-0 after less than ten and a half minutes, and were never able to dig themselves out of the along hole. t‘ All four goals were scored from directly in front of Moore, who was a sitting duck in the Buffalo net. Each goal was a result of the clearing ineptitude at Bulls’ glove. As the third period began, it appeared that the Bulls might be able to rally from a 5—3 deficity the heels of Eddit Patterson’s late goal in the second period. Patterson broke in one a on four-on-one break and surprisingly drilled one behind 0S goalie John Fowler, ignoring his teammates. “1 just shot. 1 don’t really know why,” commented the frosh center. “1 was pissed off so I shot.” “1 thought Eddie Patterson’sgoal would do it for us,” said Wright regarding a possible change in momentum. “But that quick third period penalty [to Tom Haywood) and quick goal [by John Silver] spelled doom for * In Concert UP CLEAN 8 WIN *1000!

The Academic Planning Committee, appointed in September by President by Graduate Robert Ketter, and Professional Education Dean McAllister Hull and History Department chairman Clifton K. Yearley, and had" three students among its sixteen members. The report, printed in its entirety in yesterday’s Reporter, called for closing down Tolstoy College (College F). Social Sciences College, the Department of Biophysical Sciences, the Department of Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations of Education and the Black Studies Department. In addition, the report recommends elimination of the Social Science Research Institute, the Center for International Conflict Studies, and the Cneter for Educational Research. The School of Information and Library Science (S1LS) was targeted for scaling down, largely due to an allegedly poor employment record for its graduates. rtmi-iMM The committee , also suggested consolidations or mergers for department* and P******™ **f!5! ■-7® 1 *" other department _ ?- c-5— medial fM| n: PuiLiu.jjiiu y ’ Flectrical Chemical JSSTSLn.

The School of Among these were College B, Cora P. Maloney College, the Center for Media Studies, the MS program in Social and Preventive Medicine, Occupational Therapy, and Engineering Science. In many departments and programs, the committee called for however, maintenance of support at their present level. In the Department of Music, the committee proposed increasing the number of faculty after current administrative and academic problems ate solved, in both the French Department and the Department of German and Slavic Languages, the committee called for a “revitalization” as a condition for maintenance at current levels. Under the committee proposal, the Departments of Statistics and Statistical Science would be merged, as would the Departments of Higher Education and Educational Administration, and the Pharmacology of and Department and Biochemical Therapeutics Pharmacology. Also proposed for merger is Faculty-Wide Major program and the the Master of Science in Social Sciences program, both offered through the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration. Libraries and computers While not making any specific recommendations, the committee suggested a consolidation among the Departments of Curriculum, Instruction, and Teacher Education and the Center for Curriculum Development. The committee also called for some consolidation among the Department of Elementary and Remedial Education, the Department’s Laboratory School, the Reading Center, College has “an budget,” support said the apparently high committee, which funds similar courses offered elsewhere in the University. The committee also cited % slight decrease in it emoUments u. the College » a reason A according to' the committee, would normally be rated “adequate.” However, overall unit cost is high and the need for the program is “not established.” with the level of scholarship too low to overcome these deficiencies, according to the report. Departments(toanaedt Incoherent collegians The committee said Tolstoy College courses “appear incoherent, mixed, and duplicative of offerings elsewhere in the University; its overall purposes are too broad to evidence substance or solid intellectuality; there is little evidence of The committee said it Inched' information on quality control df Social Sciences faculty and courses, any external emlnations of the College, and “resource efficiency.” One committee member, in fact, abstained from voting on the College due to lack of mformation NO accomstabflity? The committee criticized the Puerto Rican Studies program, offered through the American Studies Department, for alleged lack of accountability to the University. According to the committee report, the program is located principally in San Juan. Puerto Rico, and is relatively expensive to run. Again, however, the committee said there was a lack of solid information on which to base an evaluation. The committee also criticized the “narrowness of clientele” served by the program, apparently since they ate predominantly Puerto Rican. The committee did not elaborate on this statement, however Social, Historical and Philosophical Foundations Department was criticized by the committee for a low number of majors and a lack of faculty publication activity. The committee suggested transferring the courae* to some “department offering work in the basic dinapline” (premrmably within the Faculty of Educational Studies), The committee also attacked allegedly low levels of faculty publishing in the Black Studies Department, as well as declining enrollments. The committee said it is an expensive program to run, and it will be down to four faculty members after this year. The committee cited a statement by the Provost of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration that the program drank! either be “abolished or reinforced. The committee recommended transferring faculty to other departments and for making Black Studies part of area concentrations in the Faculty-Wide Major giant colossus unmoved by democratic will. Beside them. King Geoige 111 appeals a petty tyrant.” The PBC notes that big business has made an aO-out effort to push the Bicentennial, assisted by the government. It points out that the official “American Revolution Bicentennial Administration” endorsed a national convention for businessmen, which was designed to instruct them in how to make money on the Bicentennial. Drawing parallels between the Revolutionary war period and today’s United States, the PBC includes a quote from the 1776 Connecticut Price-Fixing Commission: “The rapid and' exorbitant rise upon the necessities and conveniences of life is chiefly occasioned by monopolizers, that great pest of society, who prefer their own private gain to the interest and safety of their country.” With this in mind, the PBC says it is time to take a look at “what the giant corporations have done to our democratic rights.” Opposition to the PBC has surfaced recently in a column by Bill Anderson of the Chicago Tribune which characterized the PBC as a “slick” organization which makes unwarranted attacks upon corporations and establishment politicians, and plays upon “the misgivings of the young, the poorand the old.” Anderson claims that the PBC is espousing a series _of “slippery partial-truths” about the American economic system, while at the same time it uses foundation grants and sells its books through the capitalist system. He also raises the specter of “radical terrorists” disrupting the schedule Bicentennial celebrations this summer, and notes that extra police protection has already been planned, but he offers no evidence that the PBC has advocated violence, or has supported any group which does. The PBC has announced plans for a mass economic rally of 250j000 Americans in Washington, DC., but sees it as an alternative to the White House festivities not as a disruption, or an occasion for riot. Support for the PBC has come from various sources, including consumei advocate Ralph Nader, the clergy, the electronic media, fanners, and both ends ol the political spectrum. James J. Kilpatrick, a columnist who is usually noted for his conservative outlook. echoed the general feeling expressed in a New York Times editorial when he wrote, “PBC is a lot closer to the true spirit of ’76 than the promoters, politicians, and public relations men in charge of the (White House) commission.” The committee said that two problems departments and confronting many programs were a lack of support" services from the libraries and Computer Center. It recommended substantial increases in services from both entities, with increased funding if necessary. In calling for phasing out the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, the committee noted that aspirations of the school were too loosely tied to perfromance to be realistic,” Presently, the school has 9.9S faculty lines. The Dean, however, has asked for 42.5 new lines. The committee proposed that the school be abandoned rather than “ expanded. Social Sciences - .. .. „ _ “* - program. PBG to glorify spirit of revolution during year by Pat Quintan City Editor As die celebrated Bicentennial year unfolds, there is a storm brewing over the proper way to observe it. On one hand, big business and the federal government regard the Bicentennial as an occasion for makmg a few bocks and waving the flag. The people’s Bicentennial Commission (PBC). on the other hand, is a group of citizens who strongly believe that the Bicentennial should commemorate, not the glory of die corporation, but the revolutionary spirit which made this country what it is today. Speaking for die PBC, Ramsey Clark stated that, “Today, giant corporations dwarf our states in wealth, power and employment. Together, they dwarf our Union of States. Multinational corporations bestride the world like some , �V-v udget hikes Dorm residents to pay their share by Steve MUigram spectrum Staff Writer •* ? .- - ' ' - __ Dormitory "rental fees will increase approximately S100 per student in a double room beginning next year, with 'proportional increases for students living on North Campus, under Governor Carey’s proposed state budget-A cutback in services for dorm residents is also a possibility.

According Aptheker, to Professor Sandweiss of Davidson College contacted hirti early last year about teaching a semester course on W.E.B. DuBois, the great black American scholar and Apparently social activist. Aptheker was selected to teach the course because of his expertise on DuBois’ life and Work. Aptheker was selected -by DuBois in 1946 to edit his voluminous letters and works. Aptheker contacted Sandweiss in October for further instructions concerning his course, since it was scheduled to begiirin January. In the Daily World Aptheker writes that Sandweiss stated, at that time, that “opposition to the appointment” had appeared from members of Yale’s History Department, but that the “nature of their opposition was not disclosed.” v Apparently, sponsorship is required from one department to hold college courses, and the Political Science Department A assumed this Committee for the DuBois Seminar was set up at Yale and 1200 signatures of support were collected within one or two days. ; , Anyone wishing to be a Candidate for office in Student Assoc, election in late Feb." pick up a petition in the S.A. office, 205 Norton. \ - S Inter ■ '•W, Petitions are due Feb. 13th when a mandatory meeting of ell candidates will be held.

But Apthekcr told the Yale Daily News, “I had nothing to hide,” and suggested he was the victim of a kind of “genteel McCarthyism with overdoses of libel.” Charging flagrant “violation of elementary concepts of academic freedom,” Aptheker said: “I absolutely demand that this evidence be made public so that I can have the opportunity of refuting it.” Sandweiss stated that as far as he knows this action was unprecedented in Yale’s history. LaPalombara wrote that “prave questions” of “freedom of inquiry” are raised by this tase, even though “I don’t particularly admire Aptheker or his writings.” LaPalombara- concluded: “I believe Aptheker is entitled to more substantive due process than he has thus far been accorded.” Aptheker received his Phd in history from Columbia in 1943, has published over thirty volumes and contributed to all the leading journals in his field. He was twice awarded prizes by the Association for the Study of Afro-American was a Guggenheim History, Fellow, and is the editor of The Collected Works of DuBois, being published in 40 volumes by Kraus-Thompson Corporation. The Yale College Council blasted the rejection of the Aptheker seminat as “deplorable” and passed a resolution urging the apprpval of the course.

Snyder defended the dorm rate increase. Rates for rooms in the residence halls haven’t increased in five years, while rates for off-campus housing have been going up continually,, generally due to the geometric increase in utility costs.” Both Snyder and Schillo believe that the increased dorm rents will not discourage students from living on-campus. Schillo said that housing still rpojects an increase in the number of students requesting space in the residence halls, and that they are prepared to open Spaulding Quad in the Ellicott Complex if additional space is needed.

The University will only release such information if a student indicated on the latest Student Data Form under Item 33 that he or she *Vish to be listed in the student directory.” The law requires that students be given reasonable time for this notification of release to request that this information not be released. For students who have indicated “Yes” to Item 33, they hqve until March S, 1976 to notify the Office of Admissions and Records that they do not wish this information to be released. Subsequent to that date, students may continue to notify the Office of Adpnissions and Records of their objection to the release of directory information or their approval.

Ellicott register burglarized Campus Security confirmed Wednesday that $2458 in register receipts were stolen from a safe in the Ellicott Student Club last weekend. Refusing to disclose any specifics about the theft investigation, Security Director Patrick Glennon reported that no leads have been uncovered as yet. Donald Bozek, Assistant Director of Food Service, said six staff members, including himself, were interviewed by Campus Security on Tuesday and Wednesday. Three of those questioned had contact with the stolen money, and three others knew the safe combination. Bozek declined to comment on how the safe was opened, however. He was reluctant to release any further information for fear of jeopardizing the investigation. Incriminating remark Commenting on a report that Food Service - executives were unhappy with the way Campus Security was conducting the inquiry, Bozek said one Security officer made a personal and incriminating comment which should not have been expressed. On the whole, he feels the investigation has been run satisfactorily. * This is the first time Food Service has experienced a burgulary of such a large sum. Thefts have been curbed due. to a tight control of cash flow Bozek said. The exact time of the theft has not been ascertained. The money wasn’t discovered missing until 3 p.m. Monday afternoon, and Bozek wasn’t informed until 8 p.m. that day. Campus Security first heard the news Tuesday morning. A full account of the burgulary will be available after the inquiry is concluded and the incident is reported to the insurance company.

The frosty rooms have been slated for rehabilitation work, according to Harold Hirsch, Project Manager for the Dormitory Authority in the Buffalo area. The project involves the installation,of additionalradiators in these rooms, Htrspb said, adding that the word would probably begin within three weeks. The problem of insufGcent heat in student rooms was first reported in the 1974-75 school year, according to University Housing Director Maddison Boyce. A list of the uncomfortable rooms was compiled at that time by Custodial Services and reported to the Dormitory Authority, Boyce said. Boyce said it was Housing’s understanding that repairs in these rooms would be made before winter but they learned in early Fall that due to budgetary problems, the work would not take place on schedule. If Housing learns between now and the end of this summer that the problem has not been corrected, they liaye contingent plans to Boyce said. close any room with a verified heating Jacob Clickman, Inter Residence Council (IRC) Executive Vice President said that IRC will be working for a pro-rated rent reduction for those students with valid heating complaints. At the present time there is no plan for providing rebates, according to Boyce. Boyce said two reasons for not providing rebates, were that there is still a five percent rent reduction for living at EUicott and that this problem occurs on relatively few days during the school year. A letter was sent to students occupying rooms that were reported cold last year, telling them there was a problem in these rooms and offering to move them to a different room. According to Boyce no one asked for a room change after receiving this letter. Temporary housing has been offered in unoccupied, warm rooms for students in cold rooms, Boyce said, but only two people have made arrangements for such rooms. Make planners pay Glickman felt that this temporary solution could have been handled differently. According to Glickman few people received notice of this offer. He added that the area office was not open at night, so many students who desired these temporary changes could not have arranged them. Glickman felt that “plug-in” heaters should have been supplied, but he' was told by the Housing Office that they would be too expensive as a temporary solution. Boyce said that the problem had been magnified this winter due to the severe weather conditions. Many of the cold rooms face the prevailing westerly winds, he added. The Housing Office is trying to apply this knowledge to the presently unoccupied space at the Ellicott Complex so that this problem does not occur in the future, Boyce said. Hirsch felt that there were some mistakes in the design of Ellicott. The Dormitory Authority would attempt to charge those firms for this, he said, adding that engineers should have been aware of the wind problem when the complex was being planned. ’ r •-sf. t FEE WAIVERS for Mandatory Activity Fee are due by NOON!

However, no effort to increase ROTC programs in this main source of black military leadership has been made by the Pentagon. The Army has instituted a “scholarship incentive program,” in which schools that recruit greater numbers of blacks into ROTC programs are granted scholarships for the coming year. But there is no guarantee that these scholarships will be awarded to blacks. Blacks, being economically disadvantaged in general, often do not have the resources to enter college without substantial scholarship support. Yet- in 1975, only two percent of ROTC’s four-year scholarships were held by blacks, according to the Army’s Ad He General Officers Steering Committee on Equal Opportunity report. The report explained this low figure very simply; Few blacks appoied for the scholarships and blacks did not tend to score well on SATs and ACT*. The army stated that these academic tests are, in fact, the single most important factor in the award-granting process. But the report did not raise any question as to why blacks did not apply and why they did not score well on tests, even though there has been much evidence that such academic tests are prejudiced against The Army report recommended that “the present practice continue.” That same Army report encouraged tokenism as an approach to sojving minority problems in the military, in the view of the study by the Center for National Security Studies. The Army report recommended continuation of a policy which would place minority and women officers in “high visibility assignments.” The Army claims that the practice is an aid in “motivating” other minority and female personnel who will see “their own kind” in these visible positions and realize that they too can make it to the top.

I made friendships that were more intense than I would have imagined. It was really amazing,” said Paula Teitelbaum, one of three members of the Russian department here to have participated in the SUNY exchange program. Teitelbaum, Diana Bahanovich and another SUNY at Buffalo student joined seven more students from other SUNY campuses for the four-month cultural exchange.. The phonetics, lexicography and literature of the Russian language, as well as cinema and translation, comprised the curriculum for the American students. A course called ‘The U.S.S.R. Today,” was also featured. Ten Russian students spent the same period in a parallel program at SUNY Albany. According to Teitelbaum and Bahanovich, the students were allowed to move freely in Moscow, and talk at will with Soviet citizens. “We went around in groups of two and three at first, but around October there was a sort of turning point and we started going out alone, u Bahanovich said. spent last fall • • Qualification To be considered for the program, a student must have completed at least three years of Russian, or the equivalent in intensive classes. Despite her educational background, Teitelbaum described her first practical encounter with the language as unnerving. “The first time you have to tell a waitress what kind of food you want, its frightening. Some people cdmpletely froze, and couldn’t even point to what they wanted. But most of us got over it pretty quickly,” she remarked. Students were granted 16 credits for the Soviet experience, and the tuition and fees were slightly higher than a regular SUNY semester would be. Another Russian exchange program, established by a coalition of several other American schools, offers a similar course but at a cost of $3,300. Additionally, each student in the SUNY program is given an allowance of 108 rubles per month, an amount described by Bahanovich as “generous.” To Teitelbaum, one of the more frightening aspects of her trip was “crossing the street. Russians drive unbelievably, pedestrians have no rights.” She added that “there are underground passages for walking, but when you cross streets above ground, you have to be really careful” Celebration Teitelbaum and Bahanovich recalled a celebration given on the eve of the anniversary of the Russian Revolution. “One of the Americans played folk songs for the Russian students, and they wouldn’t let her stop. They kept clapping, and in Russia the audience claps in unison. She must have been a little bewildered when she heard them.” Teitelbaum said that she had learned quite a bit of the language. “There’s just no other way to really learn Russian except hearing it and speaking it all the time.” She and Bahanovich suspected, however, that after a few months in the United States, they would lose some of. what they have learned. As the informal discussion ended, Teitelbaum recalled the time when a bride and groom who appeared at her door early one evening. "They walked in and said they were sorry they couldn’t invite us earlier, but would we please come down and attend their wedding. So we dropped everything and went. It was great,” she remenisced. Applications for next- fall are being accepted until February 15. Students interested in applying should contact William Hamilton, Assistant Professor in the Russian Department. �Apple in the red * i 1f • • • i Financial problems are still plaguing City of New York by Howie Gartenberg Spectrum Staff Writer funds.

That is essentially what happened to the Big Apple, but on a much larger scale. Comptroller Arthur Levitt has conducted a number of audits over the last several years, and the results have revealed numerous instances of waste and poor planning. Poor planning In past years, New York City borrowed money needlessly, planned expensive service projects which required more money than could be generated by tax revenue, and has committed itself to wasteful spending in social services. The latter problem indicates the need for a complete overhaul of such New York City institutions as the welfare system. A great number of unnecessary patronage jobs has been another source of financial trouble to New York. How did New York avoid almost certain default last year? For one, the city retirement systems agreed to lend New York large amounts of money to fund capital construction deficits. The government, federal after mandating greater budgetary responsibility, stepped in and allocated $2.3 billion over a two-year period to finance its seasonal borrowing. At present, the city is hard at work re-estimating revenues and balancing its budget. The task is monumental but people close to the inner workings of the city budget are optimistic. Hopefully this will take a little red out of the applie, and make it shine again. Friday, 13 February 1976 . The Spectrum .

Friday, 13 February 1976 for the opportunity to briefly David Seitelman’s letter in which he offered some “facts” as to why consolidation of U.B. and Buff State would be “assinine.” His first objection is that U.B. is overcrowded. If U.B. can now adequately educate a maximum of X number of students and if Buff State can educate a maximum of Y number of students, then a combined U.B., Buff State faculty could educate at least an X Y number of students (probably even more due to elimination of unnecessary duplication). Secondly, he says a bus system interconnecting the campuses would be more expensive than the savings involved. Obviously, neither Mr. Seitelman nor myself have made accurate estimations of the possible savings. respond to + However, I believe the cost of a single busline from Main Campus to the Elmwood campus would be a small fraction of the total savings. Thirdly, Mr, Seitelman says it is theoretically possible for students to take courses at either or both institutions. I ask Mr. Seitelman if he has ever taken classes at Buff State, knows anyone from U.B. who has, or any Buff State students who have taken classes at U.B. and if so, what enormous difficulty was encountered. As a parting shot Mr. Seitelman complains of anomie caused by the size of U.B. i can him many schools with larger only remind enrollments have some “student unity and school spirit” and furthermore, he presumably chose to enter U.B. rather than a smaller school because larger institutions have more to offer.

Prodigal Sun �II Our Weekly Reader They are at least very One of the best was a Polaroid by Sam Watkins of Virginia, who one day took an ordinary snapshot of his dog. When developed, the picture included three separate images of his younger brother. Bill (Polaroid film cannot be triple exposed.) In th. picture Bill was shirtless and had his hands on his hips. A few days later Bill was killed in an automobile accident and just before he was hit, he was seen standing beside the road, hands on hips, minus his shirtl The chapter concerning both modern ghosthunters and their skeptical counterparts is and yet Haining does perhaps the most interesting judgment of the reader a final with not satisfy the merits side. He tells of Arthur of either relative Conan Doyle's blind faith in anything supernatural as well as the enduring skepticism of Houdini and William Marriot (both scourges of phony mediums). After presenting both sides, Haining brings the reader to a kind of supernatural limbo: Houdini and and yet some Marriot disproved so much so well of what Doyle discovered, on the other hand, is compellingly inexplicable. This chapter left me feeling as if I had just eaten at Howard Johnson's: by the end of the meal I was full, yet curiously unsatisfied. Essentially Ghosts is only a signpost book for the interested reader. (Raining names many other books on the supernatural.) It is for the casual reader, in the final analysis: the pictures are excellent and the text is adequate.

In Ghosts: The Illustrated History, Peter Haining take? his readers on a long (though not particularly frightening) walk through ghostly 'history. Ghosts tells of things that go bump in the night, from Gilgamesh to the present. The text reads like a Reader's Digest condensed book: it can be burned through in about an hour. Haining tries to remain as neutral as possible, but there is no doubting he believes in ghosts; he encourages even the most skeptical reader to at least think about it. After all, he argues, if mankind has been simply fooled by ghost tales, then we have been fooled for an awfully long time about 4,000 years. Ghosts is an ideal book forjthe college student. Its text is short and there are a ipt of pictures (most of them properly spooky). The subject matter is perfect for any situation in which the reader is intoxicated or it's simply perfect for a lonely reading in a candlelit study. Haining's book deals with all aspects of the world of phantoms; ships, houses, churches, mediums, spirit photography and (with special emphasis) that college freshman of the the poltergeist.

Two more films from the controversial "UUAB Film Committee Eight" are being shown this weekend in the Norton Conference Theatre. Louis Malle's Zazie dans la Metro is showing tonight. The Little Theatre of Jean Renoir tomorrow and Sunday. Malle first attracted notice in America with his films Murmur of the Heart, and especially Lacombe, Lucien. Zazie is one of his earlier efforts, made in 1960; it's an intriguing piece of Parisian surrealism that Malle himself considers his best film. Jean Renoir is one of the "classic" directors whose recent work is among their best (John Huston and Francois Truffaut are other prominent examples). His Little Theatre is made up of three delightful, impeccably executed vignettes, beautifully modulated and controlled. And what other "theatre" would have an intermission during which Jeanne Moreau sings? If you miss the good old days of the midnight horror show, catch Vincent Price in Roger Gorman's period witch-hunt shocker The Conqueror Worm, in the Conference Theatre tonight and tomorrow at the witching hour.

Windfall is a seven-piece ensemble of talented musicians who create a high-energy atmosphere geared to a dancing crowd. The musical force of the group consists of Jim (Mij) Poulin on keyboards, organ, piano and synthesizer; Mark Dunham on guitar; Louie Carfa on bass; Jim (Spoon) Witherspoon on flute, clarinet, alto and soprano saxophones; Pete Militello on drums; and Donna McDaniel and Jimmy (Buzz) "Ahr" singing lead vocals. Poulin summarizes his training as mostly "five years of frustration." while Spoon and McDaniel had professional training in their respective fields. Dunham started guitar lessons at age 12 and eventually became a "rock star" after failing to make the NHL. He claims never having gone to music school, and admits to the status of child prodigy and all-around genius. (In the background, lead vocalist "Ahr" serenades Dunham with, 'They say you're leavmg; I hope it's true!" A fjantic call goes out for ribbons and medals.) Militello says his start came while playing on potato chip cans at the age of eight. "Last year I got a set of drums, I too was a rock star until I started playing 'funky' music," he said. Success at last After learning to play the guitar initially, Carfa switched to bass. He went on tour with Maureen McGovern but real success was elusive until his hookup with Windfall. According to Jimmy "Ahr/' Mr. Modesty, "I've been famous ever since birth." He's had no musical training, "which sometimes shows up," he adds. The group has been in existence for one and a half years, during which several musicians have dropped in and out. "We've had four drummers and two bass players," Poulin notes. "And every time we go to Florida, we lose a bass player," Ahr adds. After six weeks of frantic searching for an appropriate name, the original bass player came up with Windfall, and it has stuck ever since. People have left basically for financial reasons.. Some preferred to do something other than commercial music. "Actually the group is very personable." Dunham says. "I get along with everybody, at least for the most part. Yeah, Mart* gets along with everyone but no one gets along with Mark," he adds. In reality, the group does have disagreements, just-like any organization, but for the most part, they are very tight and friendly. "We even go bowling together," Poulin says. V* - X . ' K3G to keep it quiet," McDaniel said. "When you're playing light music, you can't really enjoy what you're doing," Ahr adds. "You're afraid you'll blow the peas off of someone's plate," said Militello. Money is a very important factor-to the group. They< prefer gigs that require five or six nights of work for a two*week period. "Three weeks is too long. You get tired of staring at the same walls. Two weeks is nice," Militello notes. Generally they stick to the Buffalo area, within a 60-mile radius. They have, however, played in St. Catherines, Ontario and in Florida. At present, they play "Disco Money Music" because that's what's happening now and that's what is in demand. "If you give people just light music they can't get into it," Ahr states. Suit themselves Sgngs are suited to- the performers' particular talents. "We try to stick to each person's range. The vocals come off much better that way," McDaniel adds.'

Prodigal Sun �an enthusiastic following Requests are usually no problem for the band. They are familiar with many of the request tunes, which don't vary much from "Your Mama Don't Dance" or a medlev of Beatles tunes. Interaction with the crowd is a large part of the Windfall appeal. "Jimmy is great in that department. He's a junior Don Rickies/' Dunham notes. But what comes across best is the interaction within the band itself. "Sometimes it's the only way you can do it, the only thing that might save a performance." Ahr admits. During the breaks, the band generally mingles among the audience. They are basically good-natured people who like to talk and interact with other people. "It depends on the club. If there are feelings of hostility, then we revert to the dressing room and play cards until it's time to go on again," Ahr comments.** The major complaint "Ahr" has is that the band doesn't get all of the recognition it justly deserves. "We try to get in a few instrumentals each night to given Donna and me a break, but mostly to show the band up." "People tend to focus on just what is up front. A lot of people ask me if I'm in the band, and this is after a Pictured above are the members of Windfall. Top row (left to right): Mark Dunham, Peter Militello, Jim Witherspoon: Middle row: Louie Carfa and Jim Poulin; Bottom row: Jimmy "Ahr" and Donna McDaniel. _ Nervousness doesn't play a major factor in the group's appearances. McDaniel admits to none at all before performances. Ahr says that he clams up when the audience has the attitude of "I dare you to entertain me, I defy to make me get up and dance, I'm not going to have fun so forget it." "It is really difficult to psych yourself up into a state of mind to perform when there is only one or maybe two people in the club," McDaniel remarks. She admits that many times she's hadlo pretend that she's someplace else to make it through the performance. Ungrateful dead A dead crowd is always a problem, Ahr says. "We nail them with a couple of up-tempo songs. If that doesn't work, you tell them you're taking a short pause and you go home!" 'The hardest thing I'we found about a crowd is you've finished a song, you were really into doing the tune, and there is just silence. I just can't figure it put. 1$ or if they're it just that people don't have manners just not realizing that applause is what follows, that it's .i only polite?" McDaniel asks. Windfall usually knows they are on target. There have been instances when they have come offstage feeling they had just done the worst job of their career and the owner came up to congratulate them on a truly wonderful effort. try to ( — - i< week stint," Dunham notes. Windfall does have a certain following that inquires about their future gigs in specific places. The bulk of their audience is still composed of the regulars who frequent die club in which they are playing. "Sometimes they ask the owners of the clubs when we are coming back," Poulin says. At Mean Guys East, many people have been asking about the group's next appearance. At Schony's, the management has never bothered to remove the group picture under the label "coming soon." - Off the cuff The group's work is very improvisational. At times they do forget either music or lyrics. "Donna is the best at that. She comes up with spur-of-the-moment lyrics faster than anyone I know. The lyrics have nothing to do with the song but they fit beautifully," Ahr remarks. "And when she does blow it she always makes it sound as though the band has blown it," Poulin adds. McDaniel notes that the true mark of a professional is not stopping because of a simple mistake. The most distracting thing that Windfall has encountered is people coming up to talk to them during a performance. "I've actually had someone come up to me while I'm singing and strike up a conversation," McDaniel recalls. "You're trying to do five things at once and this guy just wants to talk to you," Poulin adds. Eventually, they plan to incorporate original material. Jim Poulin has composed some numbers. "We hope everyone enjoys what we're doing and comes out to see us," Ahr says. 'They are the best at what they do," an impartial observer noted. In reality, they do what they do well; audiences have proved this fact to be true. Windfall will be playing at Schony's until February 15. followed by a five-day engagement at Patrick Henry's starting February 18. Beginning February 25, they will play for one week at The Hustle.

Well,,the band's new album is Gimme Back My Bullets and it's really nothing more than a pistol-load of blanks. There isn't a cut here that Bad Company or BTO wouldn't have rejected and again, it is disappointing to hear such weak and uninspired material from a group with the capabilities of Lynyrd Skynyrd. Much of the album's failure must be attributed to the production that John Dowd has saddled the band with. The mixing is poor, the background vocals are lost, the selection of numbers are repetitious, and overall, the album is curiously reminiscent of (another band second-rate Allman Brothers sometimes produced by Dowd). As in all of Lynyrd Skynyrd's word, their musicianship is quite solid but relying on musical competence alone is dangerous, especially when there is hardly a lyric or guitar lick of any notable interest or distinction. Each of the nine cuts are irritatingly similar, and listened to collectively, are generally indistinguishable from one another. Allen Collins and Ronnie Van Zant collaborated on most of the album's lyrics and they're awful. Often silly and trite, the chorus to a song entitled "Double Trouble" goes something like: Henry Gross, Release (Lifesong Records) Release is a potpouri;i of the musical accomplishments of Henry Gross, a former singer with 5Q's comic-rock group She Na Na. This album is one of the premier releases on Lifesong Records, the bragd-new label formed by rock veterans Terry Cashmap and Tommy West, and it's Gross'third and most promoted product.' Nlost of the songs are rockers, with the occasional ballad thrown in for effect. Unfortunately, Henry Gross proves over and over throughout Release that he has.a long way to go if he ever plans on making it. There are simply-too many fata\ flaws with this album fgr it to go anywhere other than the cut-out racks. The most notable shortcoming lies with Gross' vocal work. He warbles in a high pitched twang Double trouble. Double trouble. Trouble double. Trouble double, T-R-O-U-B-L-E -Paul Phillips I mean, really consistently out of his normal range thereby resulting in numerous cracks and perpetual wavering, not unlike the chirping birdsong of Johnny Denver. While Denver's muzak is catchy and carefully tailored MOR schmaltz pop, Gross fails in an to be "progressive." He tries to be sophisticated and sharp and come across as personable and sensitive, but he falls flat on his beard in the process. C ashman and West floundered in the production. Throughout the disc, a feeling persists that something was left out of the master track, be it more vocals or instrumentation. It might be beneficial for Gross to take a total re-evaluation of his music before he gets his release from Lifesong -Steven Brieff Records. attempt Pretty Things, Savage Eye (Swan Song) Sandwiched somewhere amidst the heavy-metal menagerie is a band of anglo rockers exiled into anonymity. The Pretty Things, who experienced a modicum of success in the British Isles, have never launched an effective blitzkrieg on American audiences. In their stead, the likes of Led Zeppelin and Bad Company have become England's biggest exponent and exports of arse kicking rock and roll punk exploits. The merits of heavy-metal have always been ridiculous. At its best, hard rock kidney punches society's frantic pace and obsession with growth for anti-human “ends. Heavy-metal conveys, with an adolescent fury, the emotional chaos of growing up absurd in a society Out of control. But at its frequent worst, hard rock is a deafening invitation to wallow in inconsequentiality and an endless string of reverberating migraines. The Pretty Things' Savage Eye bypasses inconsequentiality in favor of inspired mediocrity. The difference between the Pretty Things and other heavy-metal monstrdsities is that the Pretty Things add snappy four-part harmonies to their delivery. They rarely allow the more energy charged rockers to sour into sledgehammer contests or nightmarish feedback fantasies. Phil May and the boys realize their vocal proclivities and made use of this asset. "My Song" is a calliope of converging choruses. The vocalization is so adept you forget the thinness of the song's composition. "Sad Eye" revels' in a CSN&V feel and resembles what Steve Stills might have sounded like if his voice and talent hadn’t deserted him. On the more dynamic and rocking tunes the Pretty Things take aim with random farcical pot shots. "It Isn't Rock and Roll" is a swipe at the Stones while "I'm Keeping” (Bad Company) refers to fellow Swan Song artists. Led Zeppelin and Bad Company. The most attractive feature of the Pretty Things' hard rock is that the instrumentation is to the point. Pete Tolson's guitar, while not creatively imaginative, is generally crisp, clear and economical. Skip Alan's percussion work remains fluid, refusing into the moronically simplistic rhythms that are synonymous with the drumming of Simon Kirke. Where the Pretty Things do offend though, is by stumbling into a common production pitfall of the heavy-metal idion.

Permission of Instructor (P i.) is a form of academic freedom which is practised in many departments in the University. The specific reasons for requiring P.l. for WSC 213 are that; 1) the course is always oversubscribed and P.l. allows us to advise students as to whether or not there is room left in the course before they register; 2) the course is introductory but unlike most other introductory courses, is a discussion group of 20 students which requires a different type of work than a lecture course. P.l. allows us to explain to student# exactly j what'the course-entails so that they can be sure that they want to take it. Some of the results of not having P.l. this - — I am so surprised at the way my feelings on a required writing course have changed that I am compelled to write you a letter. When 1 originally read the article about it, the course sounded like a great idea. It seemed to me that there were lots of with poor writing skills, even in college. The way it would be administered seemed fair also. I read a letter in favor of it which re-enforced my belief. “Those freshmen will love that writing course next year,” 1 said to myself. But then I read a second letter; this one was against the idea. I began to have second thoughts. So what if a person doesn’t write as well as possible and his work suffers. What if he isn’t going on to graduate school. What if a “C” is as good as an “A” to somebody. If a student doesn’t want to be a master writer, that’s his prerogative; that’s his freedom. It’s the individual’s choice. Now I hate the idea. I mean, somebody is pushing their values on other people What a stupid idea! people David Hhr mam Vote constantly dropping and adding so that the classes could not become cohesive until the third week of the semester. Loss of P.I. has caused numerous inconveniences for students and instructors alike. The administration is supposed to be here to serve the interests of students on this campus. They took our P.I. off the five previously all women’s courses because they said that we used P.I. to exclude men from those courses. This is not the case. The removal of P.I. was an arbitrary act on the part of the administration and must be viewed as yet another attack on Women’s Studies College. Because we are concerned with the needs of students on this campus, we demand that P.I. be reinstated on all five former all women’s classes. Diane Carr Abbe Tiger for Bluebird To the Editor WINTER OLYMPICS semester are that students could not know until the first day of classes whether or not they were in the class. Also, many students were not aware of what the course entials. This has led to students This letter is in response to a letter signed “Dee S. Ousted” which appeared in The Spectrum last week concerning the bus service at the University. First, why did you have to go all the way to the University of Wisconsin to find an example of bus service at a cost? Isn’t there a closer example where bus service is necessary? I agree that we are fortunate to have free bus service. However, you forgot one thing. The buses have already been paid for by money you and 1 gave the University. Therefore, the buses are not free!!!! Second, you said that some high school students ride further than us. However, they know they can expect to get on a bus at a certain time. People at Ellicott and Governors can’t expect to get on a bus within half an hour! Also, the only reason we have no coach buses, only school buses, is because the administration split its contract between Bluebird and two other companies. The amount of money spent is the same, but the bus quality and quantity is less and the service is worse. Thirdly, just becuase the University hired Ridge Road to fill in the gap while Bluebird was on strike doesn’t mean we owe them a full year contract. You made a common error. Let me illustrate: Because we have a better standard of living than people of other countries, many people think we should sit back and be satisfied with what we have. That’s bull shit if we can do better. If we can have better bus service, we shouldn’t be satisfied. Even if we don’t yet know how to make the service better, we should still keep trying. Since we do know how to make it better, we should try even harder. Finally, why don’t you have the guts to sign your own name? Maybe you don’t have enough confidence in your own beliefs? Cute signatures are nice, but who can communicate with a ghost? I vote for full service by Bluebird. Walter F. Thiessen Wasted tax dollars To the Editor This letter is for all those people who think that the marijuana laws of New York State don’t affect them. The fact is, that NYS spends over $40 million of your tax dollars annually to enforce the existing marijuana laws. If maryuana use was potentially lethal or constituted some sort of social harm, then it might be money well spent. However marijuana is not significantly harmful either to the user or to the society in which the user functions. The National Commission on Marijuana and Drug Abuse came to the unanimous conclusion that, “no conclusive evidence exists of any physical damage, distrubances of bodily processes or proven human fatalities attributable soley to even very high doses of marijuana.” The Commission also stated that, “from what is now known about the effects of marjjuana, its use at the present level does not constitute a major threat to public health.” Therefore, $40 million is an awful lot of money to spend on an obsolete law that selectively punishes persons who realize that it is unjust and choose to disobey it. I’m sure anyone (even Ketter) could think of a number of needy areas where this money would be put to better use.

Rubin - Sports Editor The Olympics. Better known to ABC-TV fans as “the regularly scheduled meeting of the world.” When you think about it, they seem quite bizzare. Here are men. women and countries spending millions upon millions of dollars to put on this show that last for all of two weeks. ■ 1, for it all is that there is 1 guess the reason to the Olympics. nothing in sport that compares It’s all been said many times, but I’m going to say it again. The Olympics are more than a Super different than a world Bowl: They’re championship. They capture the interest of millions of people everywhere in the world. (However, it should be pointed out that Winter Olympics are not very popular in Texas,' according to one source, because the interest in speed skating is way down.) I had a sneaky suspicion that all the American teams were going to be kidnapped, held in the Tyrol Mountains, brainwashed, and released after the games. Tapes of poor American performances, staged earlier, would be relayed back to ABC. In this way, Russians, East Germans, West Germans, and all those other win at all-cost countries would be able in fact to win at all costs. However, the solid American performances thus far have made that sort of action by the bad guys appear unlikely. The Olympics have had many heartbreaks so far. Galina Kulakova of Russia lost a bronze medal because she suffered from post nasal drip and a cough due to a cold. The Eihnish hockey team was finished by a referee who ruled that the Finn’s tying goal in the game against the U.S. was kicked in and therefore not legal. Hockey, said the ref is a game of inches, not a game of feel. But the most disappointing occurrence of the l‘)76 Winter Olympics concerns hockey and the American television viewing audience.

"Mike Jones didn’t help,” Richardson noted. “We had a seven point lead when I put him in and they knocked it down to two at the half.” Passing game works Rochester executed their pass plays well during comeback, although at times the Buffalo defense looked as if it had never seen a pass.

He made his national debut as NBC’s baseball game of the week play-by-play man after making Red Sox games intolerable for Boston fans for many He expanded into football, also on NBC, and has become notorious for confusing Buffalo with the largest city in Maryland. Now, for some reason not even Mr. Neilson can fathom, Olympics fans have been forced to listen to Curt Gowdy do play-by-play of Olympic hockey games. The athletes are supposed to be amateurs. Do the broadcasters have to be amateurs too? ABC gets a D tacked on for having the ineptitude to pass over top hockey people like Tim Ryun, Marv Albert, even Ted Darling, in favor of a turkey like Gowdy.

Franz Klammer won the men’s downhill and that’s nice too, especially since if he had lost, the Austrian government would have done nasty things to him like tar and feathering him and putting bamboo shoots under the fingernails. 1 must say that 1 have generally enjoyed the Olympics so far. The coverage has been fairly complete and reasonably interesting. One thing we have noticed, though. With the exception of bobsled and luge style events, the entire Olympics is leg based. Figure skating skiing, speed skating, and ski jumping are all primarily leg-oriented. In the summertime, the events become more universal. For the Winter Olympics, 1 suggest as a remedy to all this legginess that maybe some new arm-based sports should be included. For instance, snowball making and snow shovelling are two possible events which are quite interesting to watch and involve the more emphasis on arm strength than does sport like slalom skking.

The Bulls’ Sam Robinson, Ron MeGraw and Larry Jones each hit two buckets, and buffalo reeled off twelve unanswered points. Richardson claimed it was the Bulls defense which led to the numerous fast breaks during that stretch, but whatever the reason, the Bulls couldn’t keep it up. Planning the attack Rochester called time out, and Brown put the Yellowjackets back on the winning track. “All night, we tried to control the tempo," Brown explained “Thay started running and got a few breaks and a few buckets, so I called a time out and told them |the Rochester players| to try and get the game back to our tempo." Brown also switched to a half-court zone trap, which seemed effective in cutting off the Bulls normal patterns. Brown’s strategy worked. After the two teams traded four buckets each, Rochester’s half-court zone trap stopped the Bulls cold. Rochester, down by five points with four minutes to go, scored ten straight points, and when the Bulls looked up. there were only 47 seconds left and Rochester led by five. The Bulls struggled, but could only reduce the final margin to four points. “It was our best game since Holy Cross (on January 24|,” Brown said. The Yellowjackets had lost six games in a row prior to Wednesday night’s game. “Our kids were hungry for victory. They had been practicing really hard, and they hung in there,” he added. The Bulls now own a three game losing streak, but Richardson, who had predicted a strong finish, placed part of the blame for the loss to Rochester on himself. “We had a three point lead and I took Larry Jones out. Don Scott (Jones’ replacement] took some shots he shouldn t haVe taken.

Buffalo jumped to an early lead in the Fredonia pool and stayed ahead throughout the meet, breaking one All-American and four school records in the process. The records were set courtesy of Ted Brenner and Keil Wurf. Brenner, who seems to break a record every time he steps into a pool, eclipsed his own marks in the 200-yard individual medley and the 200-yard backstroke, completing each event in 2:05.8. Diver Wurl also broke Buffalo records in the 100 meter required and optional events. Finelli big story The big story of the day, however, centered around sophomore George Finelli. After contributing to the Bulls’ victory in the 400-yard medley relay, he took off in the 200-yard butterfly. His time was 2:04.4 which didn’t break any records. In fact, Fredonia’s Boh Gozenbach also finished in 2:04.4. However, Finelli was declared the winner by a touch, and therein lies the big story. Gozenbach is an All-American who has never been defeated. But Finelli, who knew what he was up against, went to Fredonia with the right attitude. He explained, “I was really psyched for him. I'd been preparing for him for a while.” Bull-eating Bengal* Finelli will have another chance to take on the best when he swims against John Turner of Buffalo State in the Big Four tournament February 26-28.

There were athletic events on and off campus that students didn’t realize existed and we wanted to let themknow about them.” Delia is uncertain how successful Bullpen has been in achieving its goals. “Comprehensively, we didn’t meet all our goals,” he said. “There certainly was no dramatic rise in attendance at events that could be attributed to us. But we did succeed to an extent. It’s really too early to tell.” Responding to reports that there has been widespread criticism of Bullpen, Delia commented that some coaches were dissatisfied with the amount of coverage given them. But the roost serious criticism, which Delia sees as valid, is the poor coverage Bullpen has given to women’s sports throughout the year. “There’s no questions that we’ve shghted women’s sports, and all that I can say now is that we’re working on it,” explained Delia. Many problems solved Delia explained that Bullpen should in no fashion experience the same problems again next year. “We've already crossed many of the bridges needed to be crossed to begin a new newspaper,” Delia claimed. “We now have a solid advertising base to lean on. so we won’t have the same revenue problems. We’ve also assembled a writing and photo staff along with a good photo file.” In addition, we've learned from experience. It’s impossible to operate with just a four page paper.

Phone phreaking has gone respectable. “By and large, students are in the minority these days.” says Dennis Molluta, an At&T spokeman in New York. “Now it’s businessmen and lawyers and doctors it’s people of means, not students.” Mollura’s claim is backed up by recent phone phreak arrests.

Documentary of Viet refugees underway by Dana Dubbs Spectrum Staff Writer When the first Vietnamese war refugees arrived in the United States last May, they faced an uncertain future. Where would they go, what would they do, and would they be happy? A documentary history of the immigration and resettlement of these refugees is currently being compiled by researchers at this University, directed by Professor Ronald K. Goodenow of the of Department Social Foundations. Set up as a “study for cultural change in coming to the United States,” the project originated last June when Goodenow visited the University of San Diego to teach a course in American immigration history. He made frequent visits with his students to nearby Camp Pendleton, one of four relocation camps where refugees were sent upon anival in the United States. They collected documents, photographed camp life, and recorded interviews with war refugees, Marines, U.S. administrators, and volunteers - who the helped Vietnamese refugees adjust to their new life styles. Discussed specific problems In an oral presentation last week, Goodenow and Gail Kelly, co-director of the national project and a specialist in Vietnamese history and culture, discussed specific problems of the camp the assimilation setting, and process. They were joined by John Stephens, a graduate assistant who taught in Vietnam, speaks fluent Vietnamese and presently teaches Vietnamese people in Buffalo. Stephens recounted experiences he had had while working with the Vietnamese both in Vietnam and in the American internment camps. The internment camps were the first of their kind in the United States whose purpose was to handle a large influx of refugees, stated Goodenow. Kelly claims that the American government accpeted the refugees with the intent to scatter them throughout the country so as not to burden any one particular The camps, which were ail closed hy (he firs! of (his year hy the federal government, were originally located at Camp Pendleton, California: Fort Chaffee, Arkansas: tglin Air Foret Base, Florida and Indiantown Cap Military Reservation, Pennsylvania.

Sponsors took on the moral (although not legal) responsibility of providing a refugee with food, Nothing, shelter, and employment until he could support himself. Kelly described the camps as ‘very, very similar to the concentration camps of World War II designed for lapanese-Americans.” The Vietnamese lived in tents and barracks, and were not permitted to leave without clearance. However, there were attempts at a Vietnamese infra-structure, and various educational and recreational programs were set up by volunteers.

The federal governmentwhich has money, needs a testing ground for its social programs affirmative action, sex discrimination laws and labor legislation. So the government tells the universities that they can have the money it they comply with the latest government regulations within a certain period of time. The pricetag for this increased government control over university policies and practices was a staggering S2 billion last year, paid for by consumers of education. The S2 billion spent annually on complying with federal regulations is the equivalent of "all voluntary giving to institutions of higher education,” according to Change magazine. Although many university administrators agree with the federal controls in principle, the fact is that it cost them from one to tour percent of their yearly operating budgets last year just to keep up with the laws. According to a study by the American Council on education, this has increased 10 to 20 fold in the past decade, rising much taster than total revenue. the 13th w - Invasion of the arm But without any government funding at all. many colleges and universities could not survive. Even private, independent schools are no longer exempt from the long arm of government. Since last October, independent colleges are defined as recipients of federal education dollars if any student there receives governmental loans, grants or veterans benefits. Unfortunately much of the money spent on complying with the federal regulations is not spent on improving anyone’s lot. More often it is used to set up a separate bureaucracy to prove to the government that the school is obeying. Advertisements placed by colleges and universities to meet federal affirmative action requirements cost an estimated $6 million last year, “though few professional placements result from such national advertisements,” Change reported. The government invades universities with more power than just research dollars and student loans and grants. Now the Internal Revenue Service is threatening to withdraw tax-exempt status from any public or private that does not practice educational institution “equal opportunities” in its recruitment ol students. What this means to individual universities is that they will have to keep detailed records of all those who apply for admission whether they are accepted or not and hand them over to the government if asked. The cost would be in the thousands of dollars for most schools. But without their tax-exempt status, many schools would cease to / I T >wifiph md Cheese Pt Cuacketis < The piper listens So far, schools haven't gone out of business because of their expense in complying with the government controls.

Plato felt artisja (poets) were threats to his rational utopia and in fon spoke of the poet’s state of “divine insanity” and of the eloquence of Homer's poetry deriving “from divine inspiration and insanity” (Shelley trans.). In our age, creativity has become an avowed objective of education, since we see man as inherently creative through our rose-colored goggles which confuse talent with creativity and see productivity as an end in itself. We destructure our schools to allow children to run wild and rabid, drooling spontaneous creativity throughout the buildings. Little wonder persons arrive at the university after twelve years in school unable to write or think. Rollo May has been thinking about this subject for more than two decades. Here in The Courage ter Create he provides a brief compendium of his major observations among them, an important delineation of the role played by the limitation of spontaneity and play. May examines three aspects of human “creativity”: the collective aspect of creation, i.e., the artist as articulator of the collective unconscious of his culture; the individual aspect of creation, i.e., the struggle of the artist to realize and make perfect it is lys expression; .finally and most importantly the subject of the central essay “encounter.” Encounter is the Other from which spontaneity rebounds. The artist not only encounters the subjective-objective world of enculturated values and the expectations of his society, but he also must encounter, if he is to prpduce anything, the limitations of the physical world and those aspects of it with which he seeks to realize his expression. May is not interested in “great” or “famous” artists (here, “artist” applies to any creative individual), for he feels that their creativity is only an intensification of a normal human function; the continual coming-to-terms-with or formalization-of the world which each individual must do everyday. May sees as the essence of creativity. Such normal creativity is evident in the play of young children, he argues, though mature creativity arises out of an awareness of formal limitations. “Children’s art is characterized by an unfinished quality. Despite the apparent similarity with nonobjective art, it still lacks the tension necessary for authentic mature art. It is a promise but not yet an achievement. Sooner or later the growing person’s art must relate itself to the dialectic tension that comes but of confronting limits and is present in all forms of mature art. Michelangelo’s writhing slaves; Van Gogh’s fiercely twisting cypress trees; Cezanne’s lovely yellow-green landscapes of southern France, reminding us of the freshness of eternal spring these works have that spontaneity, but they also have the mature quality that comes from the absorption of tension. This makes them much more than “interesting;” it makes them great. The controlled and transcended tension present in the work of art is the result of the artists’ successful struggle with and against limits.” THE Courage to Create ROLLO MAY — AUTHOR OF LOVE AND WILL — ft requires courage, too, to confront again and again the limits imposed by the medium as well as — 1444 HERTEL AVENUE (near Colvin) j^Jhereisa^ difference!!! • * PREPARE FOR: • MCAT • • ' OAT LSAT ORE GMAT OCAT CPAT • Z • SAT FLEX ECFM6 : : : m Voluminous home • • study metacials Courses that are ttantt\ updated • • Small classes • Center open days : : • • A SALE -SPECIAL! -SALE habit today.

Many persons never have the courage, and many artists Jose their courage, just as many psychotics have lost the courage to encounter and “create” reality. (There is throughout the essays an intentional connection between mental health and creativity, stemming from May’s conception of creativity as a normal human function. May himself would probably argue that a society’s artists are its healthiest individuals.) . Within this framework of the dialectic between spontaneity and limitation, May presents evidence showing that drugs, alcohol and transcendental meditation, though they may ease tensions brought on by contemporary society, do not increase in fact, they decrease creativity precisely because they allow the individual to avoid the sense of limitation. They may produce greater fantasy and greater associations, but they also prevent the channelling of the fantasies and associations into meaningful forms. The artist, on the other hand, engages this awareness of limitation. To say the least, these essays, despite the vagueness of some of May’s terms, which may be due to his refusal to couch his discussions in psychological terminology, are stimulating. Though not as provocative as Phyllis Greenacre’s papers on gifted individuals, May’s essays arrive at conclusions close to hers and are more accessible to persons with a non-technical interest in “creativity.” til 4 a.m. YAVE. -836-8905 a Capri Art from Theatretmmmmmmmm AMHERST CAMPUS MAIN ST.

Spectrum Page five . �■ 1 EditPrial • ■ Fair review Guest Opinion by Executive Committee , Graduate Student Association In January of 1975, President Robert Ketter formally approved charters for eleven of the then twelve existing Collegiate units. A number of provisions accompanied the granting of these charters, including the stipulation that there be either partial or total review of nine Colleges after 18 months, and Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges after gne year. Now, a year later, with the state of the SUNY budget reaching crisis proportions, and with the Academic Planning Committee at this University ready to hand down its recommendations for extensive cutbacks in academic areas tomorrow. Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges are undergoing their mandated reviews. The more radical nature of these two Colleges, which supporters construe as healthy alternatives to traditional education, plade them in an extremely vulnerable position when it comes to deciding where cuts in academics will be made. As his track record has shown, Ketter has never been partial to these two particular Colleges. Both are committed to the exposition of a political philosophy (Social Sciences, Marxism; Tolstoy, Anarchism) which conservative elements at this institution euphemistically regard as a threat to "the academic freedom to which this University is committed." We have already witnessed once this past year how in the name of "academic freedom" the Ketter administration altered the very core of the Women's Studies program. Knowing the disdain with which Ketter regards Social Sciences and Tolstoy Colleges, it would come as no surprise if he were looking to use this opportune time of financial austerity to ax them right out of existence.

Ah, but there hey, this man’s got must be a difference something on his mind. But what? “Maybe you should go in first,” one of my friends said to me, after he had driven us taxi-style in his recently purchased 1965 Ford Galaxi 500 to a small parking lot across the street from the house. In the hall next to the kitchen, twis greeted with, “It’s a drag you could make it. Aue you on the guest list?” To which I promptly smiled and said, "... yeah, fuck you, too.” some beer in the kitchen,” said one of the occupants of the house, pointing in that direction. I followed the tips of his Angers and, after nodding a greeting to a few familiar faces, 1 located the tap. The beer was being served in three-ounce paper cups, which meant that to drink more than a few mouthfuls of beer, you’d probably have to spend the whole night sitting on the keg. It didn’t really matter, because the keg was empty. Pretty funny, huh? Bad vibes is right, but what do you want? It was already midnight... but wait, I saw a red reefer coming my way always glad to get more stoned. It was indeed a red reefer, a mentholated red reefer. After a toke, a foul-tasting toke from a bizarre I passed it looking joint. I found out later that'ManhoIe and Rust had rolled a few peppermint and damiana tea numbers for their guests to enjoy, something about ‘bringing out the best in psychosomatic tendencies Enough Of this, I thought, on to the next room. The whole thing was making me laugh. The bare wood floors were covered with balled and serpi-balled newspapers; here and there were splotches of orange apd green and yellow. At a closer glance, the colo$ revealed themselves to be the innards of a. squash, shreds of lettuce and the inevitable banana peel. But of course, what could be more natural and more original than to display the remains of one's dinner? I laughed so hard that -I nearly slipped on that same banana peel and came close to hitting my head against someone else’s head whose owner was laughing at least as hard as I was. , “Must be the reefer,” I smirked. � “Must be the hors d’oeuyres,” he smirked back. Food, I thought. I’m so munched out I'll eat anything... almost. The potato chips were so soggy that they stuck to my hand and folded like wet paper towels when I tried to grab a handful.

Continuity in education, especially concerning courses so closely related as Physics 113 and Physics 114 should be viewed as of utmost importance, if the needs of the students are to be met. Not only was continuity disturbed by assigning a new teacher at the beginning of the term, but changing professors three weeks into the semester further added to the confusion. This confusion can only have a negative effect on our success In studying physics and therefore is not in the best interests of us as students. Furthermore we feel that the handling of the situation was unnecessarily unfair to Dr. Beth as a professor, but more importantly as a human being.

To the Editor. ■ On February 5th at 10:30 p.m., Goodyear Hall had a meeting over the proposed dorm rent and tuition hike with the Director of Housing. Sfeventy students assembled on the seventh floor (east) lounge and demanded answers from the Housing Director as to why we have to pay $100 more while they are already cutting back on maintenance, RA privileges and overall living conditions in the dorms. The Housing Director’s only direct answer was that the dorm increase in 'rent would be coupled with a decrease in dorm services. If we hadn’t known before, we realized by the end of the meeting that the Housing Director’s job is not to work for us, but to make excuses for the administration’s cuts. The Board of Trustees of the SUNY system are meeting at the end of February to decide if they will raise our tuition and dorm rent SI00.

I must admit I took one by its toothpick and sort of dipped it into what looked like chocolate and nibbled on it. Christ, it was disgusting and I spit it out on the floor. But then I laughed; the joke was on me and whoever else was foolish enough or stoned enough to eat that shit! “These guys have some nerve putting this stuff out,” exclaimed someone standing rather unsteadily next to me. He was choking on his words and clutching his stomach because he was laughing so hard. I learned later that it was coffee grinds into which I had dipped my kidney bean. Too much. Some healthy looking pretzels caught my eye. Apparently they were untouched so I ate a few. “Don’t you know,” a girl laughed at me. “They’re coated with monosodium glutimate.” I laughed again and politely said, “Fuck you,” to the girl, when somebody very- opportunely handed me a shot glass ofbeer. In one comer, a group of people were circle-mocking ‘Of-ri’ with pointing fingers and stamping feet. Their feet were stamping to the sounds of stereos, yes, two stereos, playing different music simultaneously. Discs such as Lawrence Welk playing Songs From Mary Poppins and the Rolling Stones’ Sticky Fingers appeared together. So did Steve Reich and Merl Taylor, “a really bad fiddler,” according to Manhole. Alan Silva and the Celestrial Communication Orchestra v»eW featured against themselves. (“It’s, a dabble album,” he explained.) I went to do my thing m the bathroom, and indeed I did, but the place reeked'from the dead fish in the bathtub. A jello was brought out on a platter, but before it could be devoured, my own housemate, Verry, threw it in the face of Tashery, a good friend of ours. A few clumps even landed on Manhole himself. I found out (later of course) that the jello was tasteless anyway, nothing more than gelatin mold and food coloring. “We wanted an alternative to the typical good-vibes party,” offered Manhole vaguely, the definite spokesman for Of-ri, Bong and Rust, the other three inhabitants of the house. “However,” he continued, “we now disavow any knowledge of a party in our house.” How convenient, I thought, but then, it was actually more of an experience of no specific nature than a party. It was certainly different than the reported six or so other parties, or so-called parties that happened’on Friday night. 1 don’t know. I wasn’t at thoie other parties and besides, it’s all past now so who gives a damn. But i laughed and laughed on Friday in fact, 1 laughed all the way to night Annacone’s Inn by that time I had to have a beer, I even deserved one.

Page seven �«*' * J.V. action Buffalo hoopsters crushed by the Hilbert Hawks 74-56 one-on-one offensive play may be the be.st available. by Ira Brushman Spectrum Staff Writer There was much more to say about the Hilbert Hawks then about the Buffalo JV basketball team in the Hawks’ 74-56 victory over the Baby Bulls last Friday night in Clark Hall. The Hawks, led by a fiery 5’11” point guard, Willie Morris, ran the Bulls right out of the gymnasium. In the words of Buffalo coach Matt Fischer, “We can’t shoot and we can’t run.” That doesn’t leave much. The Baby Bulls’ main problem appears to be the loss of guard Donald Scott who was moved up to the fairly varsity squad. He used to run the ball club well in fact— and his absence leaves a serious void in the Bulls’ ball-handling capabilities. Guard Sterling Hedley was’'much more effective in the back court when Scott was around because he was able to concentrate on his own play and leave the offensive quarterbacking to Scott. Hedley’s 0-for-17 shooting performance Friday night is good evidence of that. Fischer sums it up by saying, “He’s got talent, but he needs a strong supporting cast.” — teammate George Finelli have turned in outstanding swimming performances in the past which have led to many Athlete-of-the-Week awards. Last week, Brenner put on another show for the swimming Bulls. Against Rochester on Wednesday, Brenner took the 200 yard backstroke and the 200 yard individual medley events, breaking the school record in the latter. He also led the Bulls' 400 yard relay team to a triumph. Then, on Saturday in Clark Pool against Alfred, the sophomore again broke the record in 200 individual medley and again Brookins bright spot The other half of the Baby led Buffalo's 400 medley team to a triumph. Bulls’ rear guard, Freddie Brookins, is the only Bull who can Strong swimming by Bulls defeats Alfred the ball in the basket. consistently put of that and frequently Unfortunately, he’s aware his own hands a la Earl tries to take the game into It’s to blame him because his tough Monroe. The University of Buffalo swim team, led by a strong performance from sophomore Ted Brenner, defeated Alfred University 66-46 last Saturday at Clark Hall Brenner, a native of Amherst, helped establish a new school record in the 400-yard relay, and placed first in the 200-yard individual medley with another record time of 2 minutes, 7.4 seconds. The victory for Coach Bill Sanford and his crew was made even sweeter by virtue of the fact that they had never beaten Alfred before. With this thought in mind, the Buffalo swimmers came out fired up, and quickly captured the first event, the 400 yard medley relay. But the momentum didn’t swing all the way towards Buffalo until the 50 yard free style which was won by the Bulls Peter Jaremka. The Bulls continued to power past Alfred in the 200 yard individual medley. Carlton Gebaur placed second, while Brenner came in on top, setting the first of his two records for the afternoon. Brenner and Gebaur’s one-two finish established a Bull lead that was never lost. Buffalo stayed on top with a win in the 200 yard butterfly by George Finelli, and also with key victories in the diving competition from Keil Wurl and Michael Doran. The victory was iced in perfect fashion, as the 400 yard relay team of Chuck Niles, Finelli, Jaremka and Brenner won with another record time of 3 minutes, 27 seconds. l' The win. which evens Buffalo’s record at 5-5, is an encouraging one for Sanford’s young team, which has only two seniors on the squad. After three early season loses, the swimmers have come on strong, and face Brockport at home in the season’s finale on February 18. But more importantly, the team seems to be peaking just in time to defend its title in the SUNY Centers meet on the 21st at Binghamton. The only other prominent Baby Bull is 6’5” center Lloyd McKinon who scored a team high 16 points against Hilbert. He is the only real bright spot on the team. McKinon’s defense and rebounding have improved tremendously, and his shot selection is excellent. Reserves Jeff Mis, Alan Pillans, and Mark Sacha do show flashes of brilliance coming off the bench, but they usually get to play only in lost cause situations. Morris mauls Bulls The game against Hilbert was typical of the Baby Bulls’ performances in recent games. Unable to defend the Hawks' fast break, Buffalo quickly fell behind by six and eight points early in the first hall. Morris’ outstanding performance did not make the Bulls’ defensive chores any easier. In fact, Morris’ tenacious defense, hard drives to the basket, and team cheerleading did most of the damage for Hilbert. At the end of the first half, Morris and the Hawks had calmly opened up a 19-point advantage, and the second half was played out essentially just to make it official. The Baby Bulls’ record now stands at 4-6, but if this recent trend continues, improvement is not likely.

Revels returned to Buffalo on Friday night and scored a Clark Hall record 42 points to lead the Blackbirds past Buttalo, 76-72. Revels said he chose LIU over Buffalo because he did not like the Bulls' schedule or the Buffalo weather. Ironically, in the two years since Revels made his choice, there have been drastic improvements in the Bulls’ schedule, going from a majority of Division II and III teams to a majority of Division I teams. “We knew he could play two years ago,” said Richardson. Revels took very little time Friday night to prove it again by scoring the game's first five points in a little over eighty seconds. Nevertheless, Buffalo came back, and two consecutive buckets by sophomore guard Larry Jones pul Buffalo on top by one. two years ago. Revels Six in a row Not satisfied with (hat. Revels started another storing spree, and in the next eighty seconds scored six more points, and LIU was back in the lead. Revels had one more scoring spurt to end the half, but Buffalo was able to stay even during that skein by Revels on three freelhrows and a contested tip-in by center Sam I’ellom, who finished with 2b rebounds and 23 points. Revels had 22 of the Blackbirds 3 l points at ) halftime. "I just tried to keep on going in the second half,” Revels said, and that's just what he did. After Jones had scored a three point play to give the Bulls their largest lead of the night, four points. Revels put in six of the Blackbirds next nine points, while the Bulls went scoreless for four minutes. After that, Buffalo never came closer than three points. "I just wanted to play good to show them that I could play," Revels said. “I felt bad about the loss last year |a 75-72 Buffalo win|. I wanted to gel revenge.” He admitted that some of his 16-for-22 shooting performance was due to his basket hanging, but added "Our coach lets me go free. I can do pretty much as I want." Richardson was a bit philosophical about it all. "There's nothing you can do when someone is that hot. We had a hand in his face every time, except those lay-ups. Richardson claimed that Ron McCJraw. whose job was to guard Revels, was not concentrating on defense as much as he should have been. " Robinson sfops Douse The'other key match-up between Buffalo's Sam Robinson and 1 Ill's All-American candidate I rnie Douse, ended largely in Buffalo's favor. Douse, who had been the Blackbirds leading scorer so tar this year, was limited to a few turnovers in the early going before he began forcing twenty-fool jumpers over Robinson. Douse finished with eight points, twelve under his season's average. "Coach | Mall I fisher had we should put Robinson on Douse," cl id the job. Unfortunately, we only "And he Richardson explained, have one Sam Robinson." he said relcrring to the tact that no one was able to guard Revels. "We played a good game. Richardson conceded. "Any lime you play a good team, you gel up for them. We're going to have to concentrate a little bit more, but we're coming along." The Bulls, now 7-12. play Rochester tonight, a team they have beaten decisively each of the last two years, as Buffalo looks for its first road win in ten attempts. scouted them and by Gary Charles Staff Writer Spectrum The Buffalo Bulls fencing team destroyed a young I lmira College team by a score of 23 to 4 last Saturday afternoon in Clark Hall. Led hy the strong performances of Su Peck. Marty Schiff and Gary Gerber, the Bulls easily defeated the Soaring l.agles. I lmira brought only six fencers to the meet, each with very little experience evident as Buffalo sewed up the meet after the sixteenth of 27 bouts. With this impressive win the Bulls extended their record to two wins and three losses. Captain Peter Agamy of 1 Imira said, “Most of the guys on the team have less than six months experience and since we arc such a small school, it's hard to raise a team." One of I Imira's starters had only been fencing four weeks Dual duel representation freshman Su Peek of the fencing team is the first woman to start on a men’s varsity team at Buffalo. Her sixth place ranking in the women's 1 c ) and under-age group in the nation impresses most of her male opponents. So far this year she has won nine and lost six bouts. "It isn't that much different than fencing with women although they (men) are stronger and faster," Peek explained. With one more year lo compete in this age group, she hopes to do better this year at the Amateur Fencing League of America (AFLA) Nationals. There are three different weapons used in the competition, the foil, epee and sabre. The foil is the lightest weapon and is scored by electronically registered touches. Duelers wear light metal mesh vests and the swords are wired to complete a circuit when the tip of the sword touches a vest A judge Watches to award touches to the swordsman who hits'his opponent by initiating an attack. Only touches on the torso can be scored since the metal vest covers that part of the body. Ouch The epee is a bit heavier ami is also scored electronically. However, the whole body is a target area. The sabre is a light sword that can cut as well as puncture. A judge and four referees award the touches since there isn’t an electronic scorer. Like the epee, the whole body is the target area. The fencing Bulls in their opening meet of the year fenced the national collegiate champions Wayne State and lost. However Coach Bill Marchant said, “Our epee team stood on par with them.” He added that the level of competition the team has faced this the Buffalo year is comparable to "sending basketball team up against UCLA.” The Bulls have more difficult meets ahead, including a home contest against Penn State, and hope to have more support from the University.

But, Ketter said, “There has to be recognition, whether you like it or not (and I must be honest and indicate that in several instances, 1 don’t), that ultimate and administrative fiscal responsibility and authority for this and all ventures at the University rests with the chief administrative officer.” Ketter said the pharmacy must fall under a recognized arm of the University so that justification for clearly existence be its educational and not just operated of for the “convenience” students. “There must be adequate provision to ensure that the pharmacy will not become simply another drug store,” he added, saying one way this could be accomplished is through the partial or complete restriction of of sales over-the-counter items. non-prescription Ketter made clear his support of the pharmacy as an educational program. > Managing Editor ...

I support it,” he wrote. The pharmacy, open since early November, was funded with $36,000 in originally fees from Sub student mandatory Board and a $1500 allocation from the administration. Health care and a pharmacy were shown to be the number one student priority in a funding survey by the Student undergraduate Association (SA)in 1973. The pharmacy was planned by a committee of representatives from Sub Board, the School of Pharmacy and the University Health Sciences Division. About 40 prescriptions a day are currently filled there. Ketter cut off funds for the pharmacy’s operation without notice in late November, and only revealed through a spokesman around January 14 his demand that the license be transferred to the University. Ketter said in his letter that subsequent to his identifying particular University criteria for the pharmacy’s operation, he discovered that understandings reached earlier had not been executed “a fact which was most notably highlighted” by Sub Board’s holding the license. Robert Ketter — �r Student Health Fee ' Compromise is sm Jackalone’s motion was tabled until the next Senate meeting. An idea to ban disposable containers on campus presented by New York Public Interest (NYPIRG) Group Research member John Ziegler, led to a resolution passed by Senate. Ziegler stressed that the purpose of the resolution was not to shake up the Faculty Student which Association (FSA), operates the Food and Vending Services, but to show that there is widespread student support for a return to recyclable containers. “This is best pointed out in yending," Ziegler explained. “As the old machines wear out, we would simply like to see them replaced with machines that can handle returnable bottles.” Art Senate Chairperson Lalonde summarized the events which led to the dispute between Sub Board and the yUAB Film Committee regarding the showing The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is so corrupt it should be of eight particular films this drastically reformed or abolished, authors Kirkpatrick Sale and John semester.

He believes the CIA should'remain operative, but that most covert operations and other “dirty tricks” against the American people, should be scaled down or eradicated. Marks, the author of The CIA and the Cult of Intelligence (co-authored by former CIA agent Victor Marchetti), stressed that the the assumption type of reasoning behind the CIA’s covert operations that the United States knows what isbest for the rest of the world Is the reason why the CIA has to be curtailed. He said that the purpose of ; the agency is to “cause events to happen.” In citing examples of past CIA antics, Marks painted a picture of; political black comedy.

She reports that Marine is not allowed to practice any of her religious beliefs in the home. An underground Jewish activist who spoke to Marina this summer said that although physically Marina’s health was good, she appeared very nervous, perhaps on the verge of a breakdown. She revealed to this woman that she still wants to immigrate to Israel to be with her father, according to Tiemkin. Tiemkin is now appealing to people in America and Europe to come to the aid of his daughter. Since his arrival on January 12, he has spoken to “a great number of people,” greatly impressed by the “strong Jewish community.” He is speaking to both the general Jewish population and politicians that are sympathetic to the plight of Soviet Jews. He has already spoken with aides of Senators Jackson, Percy and Stevenson.

He refuses to make any further attempts to deal with that organization. He is also meeting with psychiatrists and scientists from the United States, in hope that they might contact Soviet officials. During all of these meetings, Tiemkin distributes postcards addressed to Secretary Brezhnev which “urge the reunification of Marina with her father.” He is certain that his public pressure will have an effect, as “the Soviet government had expected no negative reaction at all.” Tiemkin indicated that other Jewish children have been forced to remain in the Soviet Union while their parents immigrate. He cited a case where the same tactics were used against another young girl who had received permission to go to Israel. Her parents were required to leave for Israel without their daughter or else face jail.

The union is currently circulating petitions to students, faculty and staff listing demands that they feel must be fulfilled “immediately if Graduate Assistants (GA’s) and Teaching Assistants (TA’s) are to survive The union charges that salaries have remained frozen since 1967, and that 165 jobs have already been eliminated since last year. Union leaders also explain that current budget cuts will hamper the completion of programs already in progress. The union maintains that cuts have resulted in increased workloads, at pay below the Federal poverty level. Information pickets will be set up today and Thursday at Norton Hall “to visually seek the support of the University community,” a spokesperson explained. Only informational in purpose, the union picketers will have literature and petitions available. The union’s demands call for a $4,000 minimum wage level for all state-funded graduate employees, plus guaranteed tuition waivers and the restoration of all 165 graduate student jobs cut last year. The union also wants assured funding of graduate employees for the duration of their degree requirements, and accident and liability insurance for injuries suffered in laboratory or classroom accidents Finally, they insist on an affirmative action program in graduate student hiring practices which would bring the “allocation of state graduate funding in line with the proportion of women and minorities in the state population.” The GSEU is planning a rally Wednesday, February 18 to present the “Five Demands” petition to the University Administration. Ten days later, the union will hold another rally to report the Administration’s response. President Robert Ketter has stated earlier that he does not accept the contention that graduate teaching assistants were overworked and underpaid. Monday, 9 February 1976 The Spectrum Page three . . �Hurricane Carter Celebrities flock to latest cause by Pat Quinlivan City Editor A national controversy is heating up over the murder convictions of Rubin “Hurricane” Carter and John Artis of New Jersey. The two were found guilty by an all-white jury of killing three people in a 1966 bar hold-up in Patterson, New Jersey. Both of the defendants are black. The victims were white. Widespread interest in the case was aroused in 1974, when the two key prosecution witnesses, Arthur Bradley and Alfred Bello, recanted their testimony. They claimed they had been coerced by the police into falsely identifying Carter and Artis. However, Judge Samue Lamer who tried the original case, rejected the Carter-Artis motion for a new trial on the grounds that the recantations “lacked the ring of truth.” At the recantation hearing, previously suppressed evidence was also revealed. Since the denial of a new trial a group known as Freedom for All, Forever has established the Hurricane Fund, which has been raising defense money for Carter, a professional boxer at the time of his arrest, and Artis. Walt Frazier, lawyer Adam Walinski and many others from all walks of life. The story of the Carter-Artis case is dotted with irregularities and inconsistencies It began at about 2:30 a.m. on June 17, 1966, when two black men entered the Lafayette Bar and Grill in Patterson, New Jersey and killed the bartender and one patron. Another patron, Hazel Tanis, died a month later, and William Marins, the sole survivor, lost an eye. Long, hard night Later that night, Carter and Artis were stopped by police, picked up and questioned about the crime for 17 hours at police headquarters, and released. Marins and Tanis, the witnesses, both described their assailant as light-skinned, 6-foot black man, about 175-190 pounds, with a pencil-thin moustache. Carter was dark-skinned, 5-foot 8-inches, 155 pounds, and he had a thick moustache, goatee and shaved head. Four months later, on October 14, 1966, Arthur Bradley and Albert Bello signed statements positively identifying Carter and Artis as the murderers, and they were arrested that night. Bradley and Bello, both of whom had long criminal records, had admitted to being near the scene of the The Greatest murders on the night they took place, as they were The co-chairmen of this drive are Muhammed Ali, committing a burglary.

Three days after this interview took place, Bello and Bradley “fingered” Carter and Artis. DeSimone also admitted to making promises to Bradley at that time. In December 1974, to the shock of the defense, Judy Lamer rejected the re-trial motion. He did so again in February 1975, and in May he refused a request that Carter and Artis be granted bail pending their new appeal to a higher court for a re-trial. Currently, Carter and Artis are awaiting the results of an appeal to the New Jersey Supreme Court for a re-trial, for which oral arguments were heard on January 12. They have withdrawn their applications to Govern Brendan Byrne for pardons, and are seeking complete vindication in the courts. Carter has said this is in response to a move by Assemblyman Eldridge Hawkins, who, working on the governor’s behalf, has claimed to have new evidence that Carter and Artis were not the murderers, but were outside the bar at the time of the slayings, as accomplices. “This charge is totally false,” asserts Carter, who says they want “complete exoneration in the courts,” and not a compromise settlement which would still paint them as criminals. for leading a strike fqr higher wages in the. license plate shop.

In light of the Robertson panel findings, Weis claims the Air Force has been able to cover up UFO observations for 15 years. A °^ er made even talking about UFO s punishable byoneto ten years in prison and a fine of probably by Cindy Kaplan Staff Writer Unidentified Flying Objects (UFO’s) arc appearing with increasing frequency throughout the world, researcher Norman Weis said Tuesday evening in Diefendorf Hall at a special lecture sponsored by the Political Science Club. Reported UFO sightings, landings and personal contacts are continually on the rise he said. Weis, a former music professor at this University, began his sVudy of flying saucers in 1955 when he spotted one while fishing off the shore of Lake Erie. “1 it was the sun at first so bright and bhndmg,’’he explained. thougit According to Weis, the government has been aware that flying saucers are very real and that their presence indicates interest in our planet by curious explorers in the including universe. Several presidents Gerald Ford, Lyndon Johnson and John seemed to be ‘saucerwise Kennedy and thus initially willing to uncover and explain the facts to the American people. But once in office, their desire was abandoned. Weis posited that someone higher up than the president, like the Centrkl Intelligence Agency (CIA), is promoting a coverup campaign - ” - Evidence As evidence that the government has been attempting to conceal the issue Weis cited the Robertson panel of five scientists which in 1953 set out to Investigate UFO’s. Movies of UFO’s traveling at extremely high speeds were observed, but the report concluded that the objects observed were h°KU-’ ’ University ofColorado aU d concluded flying queers presented no danger and even worth investigating. But WCren’t according to Weis, the study which had a $600,000 budget, was so inconclusive that investigation into current UFO sightings at the t | me never even took place. “Everyone believes it’s a hoax,” said Weis, “we’re but conditioned to be so skeptical. close to of OU ve been so 12-13 when y you’ll those things [UFQ’s] as 1 have be a believer too.” .. A ’ ... Assorted spaceships So, what are these UFO's? Weis and some scientists maintain there are at least a billion suns and trillions of planets in the Milky Way Galaxy. Therefore, there must be a million or so places, similar to our own planet, where beings like us maintain a similar life style. ‘ These creatures control the frequently spotted UFO’s, whose purpose most likely is observation of our life style and environment, according to Weis. Various observers, he said, found the “people” sighted range in height from 3 feet to 8 feet; some speak English and most have a similar appearance to our own. The vehicles themselves range from the size of a 747 jet to a communication device about 3 feet in diameter, apparently sent from a mother ship to detect sound and take photographs. Saucer shapes have been typed as “saturnian,” (resembling the planet Saturn) and “straw hat.” Weis explained that a flying saucer in a horizontal position is momentarily stationary, but when tilted at an angle is ready tor tlight. A tremendous force field surrounding these ships accounts for the fact that 99 percent of the UFO’s that land bum their landing locations, Weis reported. Weis’ documented slide presentation, which included photographs and newspaper articles of reported sightings, showed UFO’s had been spotted all over the world including England, Brazil, Peru, Canada and the United States (from California and New Mexico to Colorado and Ohio, and even Buffalo). Weis said he saw UFO’s in the vicinity of Ken more Avenue and Niagara Falls BWd. — Middle income families have hardest time getting aid College financial aid officers have said it, prestigious educational organizations have said it, and parents have been screaming it: When it comes to financial aid, the college middle-income family gets screwed. If a bill introduced by Senator Charles Percy (R—Dl) is enacted, students from college middle-income families would be tax entitled to substantial deferments in order to defray the costs of a college education. The bill is geared specifically for the middle-income family making between $11,000 and $16,000 per year. Most federal student aid plans, said Percy when he proposed the bill, are geared for students from lower-income families, those making up to about S9.000. ‘This concentration on lower income groups has resulted in little or no financial assistance available for the student from a whose middle-income family needs are just as great.” Percy’s bill bases the distribution of the tax deferments upon the tax liability of the family: that is, tow much tax they are likely to pay. A student from a family making $14,000 a year would be entitled to a tax deferment of more than $1,400. The deferment would be paid back to the government over a (CPS) - period of three years at seven percent interest. A small fortune According to Percy’s statistics, a family could spend between $10,000 and $25,000 to send one child to college for four years. The Entrance College Examination Board estimates that the parents of one-third of next year’s college students will not be able to pay more than $615 a year toward college costs. .Educational institutions, said Percy, often use up all the funds available from federal programs before they reach applications of students from middle-income families. Under Percy’s plan, a family bringing in $14,000 a year is entitled to more than three times the deferment available to a family making approximately half that amount. A middle-income student who wanted to attend a high-cost private school is entitled to a greater tax deferment than h low-income student who might not even be able to afford a local expenses, while middle-income family should not middle-income families have the be penalized financially for expenses of a house*, a second car, wishing to send their child to such a school, since that would be etc., O’Brien explained.

The teaching ot by Dennis M. Patterson The Graduate Student Employee Union (GSEU) was formed In the spring of 1974 to redress grievances of employed graduate students with regard to wages and working conditions. Wages were frozen for Graduate Assistants, (GA's), as well as for graduate Teaching Assistants (TA's) at the 1967 level. Last year, 165 graduate student jobs were cut, leaving many without a source of income, while others are saddled with an increased workload. TA's teach 40 percent of the total University's undergraduate oources, including a majority of freshmen and sophomore courses in many departments. The average pay for these workers is $2889, which is well below the federal poverty level. TA's are required to teach one course. Faculty members, who teach two or three courses, and sometimes assume other University responsibilities, receive from around $10,000 to $40,000 based on senoirity and qualifications. Philosophy is the art of Rational Conjecture.. .• -Bertrand Russell Philo sphere have oftentimes been accused of clouded utterances or mental gymnastics which are of no interest to anyone other than fellow philosophers. As to the validity of this charge, I do not wish to take issue. My case is a simple one and can indeed be presented without ambiguity, academic The validity of philosophy as enterprise has been jeopardized at this' University by the unprecedented slashings of faculty lines in the department. This action calls into question the credibility of the administration as well as the credibility of philosophy itself. And so my case is dear. What 1 wish to present is the case for The GSEU says that "no public employee group has gone so long without a pay increase," and with inflation, many members say they have a difficult time meeting their everyday needs. The Graduate Student Association ({3|9£) has come out publicly in support of the GSEU and its current demands. philosophy. As long as man has been able to drink, he has asked himself basic questions, these questions induded topics that at one time or another were thought to be meaningless queries, but they were asked all the same. These questions seek to ferret out the essence of what it means to be human and to illustrate the basic character that lies at the heart of man. Philosophers have long been concerned with these inquiries and have attempted to cofle to some conclusions. They have asked questions that at times appear odd and at other times strikingly provocative. The quest of philosophy is not a light one and most philosophers have engaged themselves in a lifelong pursuit of truth. The goal of truth is the philosophers’ raison d’etre and discourse is the method. The study of philosophy is an attempt to reach a basic understanding of the world through the use of man's most powerful faculty the mind. Through proper modes of reasoning and trenchant questioning, philosophy seeks an understanding of the world that is perspicuous as well as teachable. The discourse of the philosopher is of no value if it cannot be Yet the Ketter administration has responded to the plight of this important sector of the University with nothing but disrespect and contempt. Ketter recently stated that he did not believe that employed graduate students were "underpaid," or "overworked." Howie Kling. President of GSEU. said at a recam union rally, "I would like to sae Robert Ketter and Hu0i Carey live together in an apartment in Buffalo" on the wages of employed graduate students. For a year and a half, the'graduate students have collected petitions for union recognition, submitted documents to the State's Public Employees Relations Board (PERB), worked diligently to organize the funded graduate students here, and attempted to build support among students, faculty and staff around common needs. — After Ketter repeatedly failed to recognize the GSEU and the interests of employed graduate students, the union drafted five minimal demands to be presented to the University administration. These demands call for: . philosophy is the attempt to communicate share the results of thousands of years of thought. Philosophy is not ; taught to be a pedantic exerdse, that is not the intention of those who teach. Philosophy can only be rewarding when there is a mutual exchange of teacher and “student.” thought between Consequently, this exchange generates one’s own ideas about the world and thought becomes fully actualized once it is clearly understood. ' ’ Philosophy is most properly called the science of man. It is perhaps man’s first science since it attempts to deal with questions which affect man at the most basic level. In the modem age of mankind, individuals tend to be lost in the crowd and hence lose that basic quality of individuality which they deserve to hold amply because they are human. The attempt to deal with man within his social framework is perhaps the key factor which motivates the philosopher. Questions of knowledge and questions of freedom are basic issues which cannot be disregarded. Each man must answer these questions for himself. By the very fact that We are thinking beings, we must pose these questions to ourselves and then attempt to formulate answers. * > ;jy Philosophy is not the single answer to the problem of man, nos is it the only method which enables us to reach the answers to our inquiries. Philosophy exists because man thinks. He thinks and he questions in the hopes that he will someday be able to understand himself as he is. Philosophy offers much in the attempt to gain an insight into what we are as people and what we hope to be. If .the University setting becomes a place where people Can exchange their ideas, then and only then will this necessary exchange of thought take place. If the University does not offer the setting ip which men and women can freely discourse, then all hope of new thought will be stifled. ,, —$4000 minimum wage. —restoration of 165 recently out positions. —assured funding for the duration of degree program, —accident and liability insurance. —affirmative action program to guarantee the hiring of women and minorities. The GSEU is presently circulating petitions to get University-wide support for these demands. They will be presented to Ketter. Wednesday, February 18. and on March 1, the union will hold a campus rally to report on the administration's response. We urge everyone to sign these petitions. This drive is a powerful in the fight to safeguard our current courses and programs from impending reduction or eliminations. weapon Petitions will be circulated in classrooms this week, and will be available from union tables in Norton's Center Lounge, the Ridge Lea Cafeteria building, and in Baldy HaH on the Amherst campus.

Among these publications is the Middle East Journal. It is a collection of scholarly articles written by pro-Arab professors and individuals. 5 Pro-Arab organizations that are funded by oil revenues receive funds from varied sources. An example of such an otganization is the American Near East Air, Inc. This is a pro-Palestinian organization that seeks to push a pro-Palestinian line on the American public. This organization has received funds from Arabian-American Oil (ARAMCO), Esso Middle East, Esso Standard of Libya, Gulf Oil.

This is especially distressing in light of the fact that not too many people have written in favor of decriminalization to their senators and assembly persons. If a bin is to be passed, pressure must be applied to your elected officials Individual letters are much more effective than mere petitions Therefore I strongly urge people to use the following list as a guideline for reasons to support marijuana decriminalization. 1. The penalty for possession of one ounce of marijuana is the same as that of first degree assault, second degree burglary, and second degree manslaughter. ‘ ' 2. Approximately two-thirds of all persons arrested for marijuana in New York Start never committed another crime and were arrested for amounts of less than one ounce. 3. Enforcement of the marijuana laws costs NYS over $40 million annually, and in this time of fiscal austerity., this money could be more wisely spent, 4. i Whereas marijuana possession is a “victimless” crime, decriminalization of marijuana possession would 'enable law enforcement officers to concentrate on crimes involving a victim, such as rape, murder, etc. . 5.

Page seven �Win over Brockport closes skaters season by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer The hocHey Bulls closed out their 1975—76 home season by skating rings around Brockport at the Tonawanda Sports Center. The Bulls crushed the Golden Eagles 13-2 for their second consecutive win and their sixth triumph in their last seven outings. The victory gives the Bulls a 9-10-1 record this year, and a 7-3-1 mark in Division II play. The victory marks the Bulls’ highest goal production of the season, their previous high being nine goals against New England and Ithaca. The 11 goal spread also marks the Bulls’ widest margin of victgfy £is year. The game did not become a laugher until the second period, when the Buffalo skaters fired six goals into the net, driving Brockport goalie Mike Broadhead to the bench in favor of Ray Demaria, who did not fare much better than his predecessor. Broadhead gave up seven goals in 35 minutes, including four over a two and a half minute span. Demaria yielded the last six tallies during the remainder of the game. Patterson nets winner If luck prevailed in the first period, it was talent that took over in the second, when the Bulls blew the game apart. Freshman center Eddid Patterson scored what proved to be the winner at 10:14 of the middle stanza, when he took a face-off to Broadhead’s right, and walked in alone on the surprised goaltender. His high shot was in the net before Broadhead moved. Patterson’s tally was followed No defensive help The Golden Eagle netminders shortly by Mike Caruana’s first misfortunes were largely due to goal of the season, a slapper from the notable absence of any sort of the right point, which deflected defense. Buffalo’s generally keen off Broadhead’s arm and in. The shooting eye complicated matters goal was also Caruana’s first in also. Four Bulls, Ron Reisweber, EC AC play, and the rookie Ed Patterson, Jack Kaminska and defenseman did a little victory Rick Costello, had two goals dance to celebrate. Four minutes later Broadhead State this weekend. The Bulls was celebrating his merciful travel to Romney Field House for removal after Jack Kaminska beat a pair of games which could well him twice within 20 seconds, and determine their playoff chances. Costello drilled a shot through his If they win both games, they should be in, but that is a task legs For Buffalo goalie Johnny easier said than done. “Oswego present a problem in Moore, the game marked his sixth fact that we’re up there. the straight solid performance, and is a big rivalry, Buffalo-Oswego shots, 23 although he faced only many were dangerously on target. and the two games up there are “There weren’t that many shots, definitely going to be tough,” said but the ones they did have were in goalie Moore. “But I think that good position,” said Moore. “We we are a more capable team than also got a couple of breaks they are,” maintained the Bulls’ tonight,” continued the Bulls’ puckstopper. Center Ray Gruarin agreed netminder. “In the second period, we capitalized in front of the net. with Moore’s assessment of the There weren’t too many times situation, and displayed a similar optimism. “They’re going to be that we missed,” two hard-hitting games, and their place is like a zoo,” said the Bulls—Oswego in weekend set The big story for thfe Bulls bruising sophomore. “But we're though, now centers on their going good now, *md I think we’re upcoming series against Oswego going to keep going good.” Coach -Kelly Assistant confirmed his players attitudes, and suggested the possibility that the games may take longer than regulation time. “UB-Oswego games are always emotional, with close checking. There may be overtime games said Kelly, recalling the two squads’ 4—4 overtime deadlock in Tonawanda last November. “They’re going to be good games with gutsy efforts by both teams.” Healthwise, the Bulls will be invading Oswego in good shape. Both defenseman Tony Scaringo and center Eddie Patterson have recovered from stitches they took against Union. The only casualty is Mike Caruana. The junior defenseman suffered a strained achilles tendon ih the second period against Brockport, but he is expected to be ready for the Oswego series. ” The Chinese udent Assoc. presents: HT ’76 Dragon) 28th at ■ i' 1.

S . - Toughest season for Bulls since Michael became coach by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer After losing to Oklahoma two weeks ago, it was obvious that the wrestling Bulls were going through their toughest season since coach Ed Michael took over six years ago. At that point, the Bulls had a record of 6—5. The major difference between this year’s Bulls and Buffalo teams of the past lies not in the ability of the personnel but rather in the youth of this year’s squad. With only two seniors, the Bulls are nuturing many young freshmen and sophomores. Adding to the strain of this rebuilding process is the team’s admittance into the strong Eastern League. This year’s Bulls have faced some of the top regional NCAA teams for the first time. But since the Oklahoma match two weeks ago the Bulls have upped their seasonal record to 9—7. Although this year’s team record is the worst since Michael’s arrival, one should not lose sight of the fact that the team has maintained a record against winning unfavorable odds Commenting on the team's performance this year, Michael said, “We have been beaten, but we have never been humiliated.” There is a distinct difference between the two. Facing teams the calibre of Penn State, Pittsburgh, Lock Haven State, Clarion State, Syracuse and Oklahoma, the Bulls have done well, in defeat. More recently, in the Bulls’ last five matches, the Bulls have managed three triumphs. At a triangular match at Cortland, Buffalo defeated the Red 20—12. The Bulls were Dragons, led by the pins of Bob Martineck and Paul Grandits, while the superior decision of co-captains Eric Drasgow and Bruce Hadsell beefed up the final tally. At that same match, the Bulls lost to the powerful Syracuse Orangemen 26—11. Despite the loss, the Bulls’ Showing was better than most Orangement counterparts who have fallen this year. Buffalo upset Performing next on their home mat, the Bulls suffered a catastrophic blow when they lost Summer orientation aides Today is the last day to pick up applications for Orientation Aide. Applications will be available from 8.30 a.m.—5 p.m. in Room 223 Norton Hall and 167 MFACC Ellicott. Only SONY Buffalo full-time undergraduates are eligible to apply. Orientation Aide is a live-in position for the months of July and August. Aides are not permitted to take courses or engage in other employment during that time. A six to eight week training program (two hours per day) during the spring semester is also required. Summer to an inferior Brockport squad 22-21. A key factor in Buffalp’s loss was a result of two pins against the Bulls. As Michael put it, “There is no excuse for getting pinned.” Unfortunately, other Buffalo wrestlers gave poor showings too and the Bulls suffered their seventh team loss. Disappointed, Michael discussed his team’s performance that day. “This is the first time since I’ve been here that we lost to a team we should have beaten. We’ve beaten teams we never should have, but now I know what the other side of the coin is like,” said Michael. With their backs against the wall, the Bulls again went on the road to a triangular meet against Colgate and Bucknell. The Bulls had to win both matches to have a chance at a winning season. At the outset of the meet, the Colgate announcer stated, “The Bulls’ record is 7—7, but their record is deceiving since they have faced many powerful opponents.” Bulls win big Both Colgate and Bucknell realized how deceiving the Bulls’ record really was after the Bulls devastated them both 29—6 and 38—8, respectively. Obviously the best of the three teams, Buffalo had little trouble disposing of both Colgate, previously 9—4, and Bucknell, 3-i8.' The Bulls turned in such a spectacular performance that they managed at least one win in each weight class. Michael even gave part-timers Ed Tyrrell and Tich Bopp the opportunity to compete. They each responded by winning 1heir decisions. Other single decision to victories were awarded Daymond Clark and Grandits. But the to the Bulls’ key overwhelming victory once again came from the Buffalo wrestlers who have performed consistently well throughout the year. Winning both their matches were middleweight Bulls Tundo, Kirk Anderson, Hadsell, Martineck, and Drasgow. With a record of 9~7, the Bulls will take on Cleveland State this Saturday at 2 p.m. in Clark Hall for their final home appearance of 1976. Monday, 9 February 1976 The Spectrum .

National Board makes study into graduate school aspects Graduate school. The (CPS) itself rings prestige and upward mobility. Put a PhD. behind, your name,.and people will be clamoring for your time and advise. A peaceful life in the isolation of academia awaits graduates of graduate school. Or did, Until a few years ago when grdauate schools starting producing Ph.D.’s much faster than the country needed or wanted them. The college boom of- the sixties when universities needed graduate assistants for teaching and research had faded by then and the economy was closing down on academic research. The debate was on. Should graduate schools continue to turn out specialists who would never find jobs in their fields just for the intellectual purity of the process? Or should graduate schools take notice of the real world and produce only what the economy could bear? The pragmatists who think graduate schools should be relevant beyond the campus boundaries are represented by the National Board on 'Graduate recently Education which published forecasts for graduate students of this decade. To be pessimistic, the report says, as few as one in ten Ph.D.’s will find work teaching at colleges and universities. That means that nine be will of ten out “underemployed” working in trucks, factories and high schools. — name No jobs 1980, one economist By predicted, there will be at least, two Ph.D.’s for every job that is closely related to the education provided in graduate school. The growing scarcity of jobs for people with graduate degrees has borne this out. In 1968, for example, 3.9 percent of Ph.D. recipients in English were jobliess when they got their degrees. In 1973, 21.5 percent were unemployed when their degrees were awarded. The National Board, which has been studying various aspects of graduate education for three years, urged universities and students not to go to graduate school because they think the economic picture will brighten in the next decade. That unrealistic hope will only result in “a wrenching and extremely damaging downward adjustment 1980’s,” the Board in the concluded. The Board prescribed big doses of honest analysis for graduate programs, especially new and undistinguished ones. They also suggested that graduate schools recruit a new clientele from older people who already have jobs in the community. The Board suspected that many graduate school faculty and administrators would resist the “changing emphasis in some graduate programs” suggested by their analysis. Idea dismissed Indeed, deans of 51 major research universities dismissed the idea of designing graduate schools around the manpower demands of the country last November. In a report issued by the Association of Graduate Schools, the deans claimed that such a shift in emphasis from the purely intellectual to the reality of the economy would “violate our tradition of individual choice in a free society.” The individual student, the deans went on to say, should be the “primary determinant of graduate enrollment.” The Graduate Association report admitted that finding jobs for doctorates would be tough in the future and that prospective graduate students should realize the tough competition they would face even with their degrees. But “those who elect to pursue graduate study nonetheless should be welcomed for their disinterested dedication rather than denied the opportunity for advanced study.” The intellectual purists agreed that some changes in graduate schools were inevitable and in some cases welcome. More “non-traditional students” with different kinds of goals would be entering graduate schools and the deans agreed that new programs would have to be designed for them. But the “adjustment process,” they warned, has of “dangers inherent overresponse, of underemphasizing the things that universities do best, and of neglecting the long-range contributions of scholarship.” ' fcssaasssa .

SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick, a non-voting member of the Board of Trustees, asked the panel to delay action on the Parcel B question to allow SA officials time to ensure that students would be sufficiently represented on the UB Foundation, which is charged with overseeing commcrical development in Amherst. The UB Foundation, incorporated to promote private support for the University, reportedly took on the planning of Parcel B because it is the only financial branch of the University with the resources to raise the initial credit necessary for the project. The projected completion date for Parcel B is September, 1977. Nonsense People who care? Med School admission hinges on the interview Kirkpatrick became concerned over SA’s difficulties in securing student representation on the UB Foundation after receiving a letter from President Michele Smith and Director for Student Activities Doug Cohen. The letter requested time to negotiate with the UB Foundation before SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer begins signing contracts “They had apparently been told that the Board of Trustees would not approve a contract if there were students on the UB Foundation, and that’s a lot of nonsense,” Kirkpatrick explained. He said the Trustees were willing to delay action on the Parcel B question “only for a reasonable amount of time,”* and expects the subject to be reintroduced at the Trustees’ next meeting on Wednesday. He pointed out that when the Parcel B enterprises are in operation, the UB Foundation wih function “like a Faculty-Student Association (FSA) only on a grander scale,” providing “auxiliary services” for students. FSA presently runs-such campus operations as Food and Vending Services, Norton Hall Recreation and the University Bookstores. Assurances Cohen feels the chances of securing student representation on the UB Foundation are very good. He said he has been assured by UB Foundation President Jack Latona that student input in running the Parcel B developments is an idea he [Latona] supports. Latona reaffirmed his support in an interview with The Spectrum earlier this year, alluding to the possibility of a student position on the UB Foundation Board. Cohen said SA would like to see a clause in the —continued on page 2— Spectrum Staff Writer “We’re looking for people who care for other people, people who aren’t coRI turkeys,” said Douglas Surginor, Chairman of Admissions at the University of Buffalo Medical School, at a meeting of the Association of Professional Health Oriented Students (APHOS). The first screening made by any medical school admissions committee is an evaluation of a student’s intellectual ability, Surginor said. Grade point averages (overall and science), individual course grades and scores on the Medical College Admission Tests (MCAT’s) allow the committee to measure.the applicant’s academic ability. It is essential that the applicant maintain superior scholarship at the undergraduate level to assure achievement at the graduate level. Once in medical school, the student will face 26-33 scheduled class hours of pure science per week during his first two years. Personality evaluation The second screening is an evaluation of an applicant’s personality. “Admission committees look for students who want to help others,’’ said Surginor. “We’re looking for people who can give a commitment to help solve national problems like health care delivery.” He said that applicants should be aware of current medical event! or controversies like abortion and malpractice insurance. Included in this screening process is an evaluation of the applicam written by the pre-med office at his college. The pre-med student may also write an essay, but this is not required. Most of the admission committee’s evaluation results from private interview with the applicant. At this interview, the applicam must try to make a positive impression on the interviewers. “It’s how you and the interviewer get along,” claimed Surginor. “It’s a question of whether or not you can turn him on. It may be that simple.” “Everybody’* getting A’i” Surginor referred to a list made by the Dean of the UCLA Medical School, published in the November issue of Medical Economics of seven attributes an applicant should exhibit during his interview. They include; curiousity, optimism, flexibility, idealism, horse sense, integrity and warmheartedness. < Surginor also spoke about the problems of admission: “Everybody’s getting A’s,” he declared. He said that grade inflation makes it much harder to make fine distinctions among applicants. It’s a problem for both the admission committees as well as those applying. “It squeezes everything together,” Surginor complained. Most of the problems with medical school admissions are caused by the large number of applicants. There are approximately three applicants for every available seat, and on the average, there are ten applications for each applicant. As a result; medical schools must review thousands of applications for a limited number of places. For example, the Medical School here sees about 4500 applications for only 135 seats. These are overwhelming odds an applicant must face. .. Tuition increase .. Another problem is that many medical schools admit a large percentage of students within their own geographic area, and in particular, their own ytate. In the ten private medical schools in New York State, 40 to 50 —continued on page 2— Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti has once again blocked expenditures of student mandatory activity fees, this time for the Saturday morning Dental Clinic which is open only to students. The clinic services members of the community Monday through Friday. Lorenzetti directed Sub Board Health Care Division Director, A1 Campagna, to rewrite the proposal for the Saturday clinic, placing greater emphasis on its educational aspects. Second thoughts In a related development, members of the Board of Directors of Sub Board were reportedly reconsidering their pledge to complain formally to if the SUNY Chancellor and Board Ketter did not release funds to pay the pharmacy bills. The pharmacy is about $5000 in debt and may be forced to close soon if no accord is reached. The Dental School, Sub Board, and Campagna all approved the original proposal when the clinic opened in October. Ketter is demanding that the pharmacy license be transferred from Sub Board to the University before he releases funds for its operaztion. This is the third time within a single year Although Sub Board gave Ketter until last Monday at noon to unfreeze, the money for the pharmacy, the deadline came and went with no word from the President and no immediate complaint from Sub Board. Lorenzetti has exetcised the power of administrative review over student fee expenditures, as outlined in SUNY Board of Trustee guidelines, to question whether a particular use of the fee falls within the guidelines. , Last April Lorenzetti blocked expenditures for buses to a rally in Albany supporting the Attica defendents. In late November, Lorenzetti was ' Sub Board, an independent corporation which distributes mandatory fees for the six student associations (SA, GSA, MFCSA, Law, Medical, and —continued on page 3— �V', "■[& Ndtfbri&fIslam evolution is exfoathedby BSU speaker by Brian Land Spectrum Staff Writer Approximately 300 people heard the dynamic Minister Louis Farrakhan, National Spokesman Honorable W.D. for the Mohammed, explain the evolution of the Nation of Islam Tuesday night in the Fillmore Room. Since the relatively unknown Chief Minister W.D. Mohammed was appointed to lead the Nation ofIslam, he has instituted many important changes which have shaken the black community. And, as Minister Farrakhan said, referring to the Muslims in the United States, “we were shook.” Much speculation arose last year when people learned that Elihah Mohammed, founder of the Nation of Islam, was stricken pneumonia, bronchial with Farrakhan told the audience. The world asked, “Who will be the new leader?” and “Will the organization perish with its thought Some leader?” or Minister Muhammed Ali Farrakhan would be the one to assume power. Others predicted violence. “Lord, child, we in for trouble now. Them people gonna be cutting and shooting all over the country.” i In the following months, many changes were made. The Muslim newspaper, Muhammed Speaks, was renamed Bilalian News, with a striking new layout. The dress code for women was altered, allowing them to appear in public traditional without their uniforms. Certain freedoms were were instituted that the misinterpreted. However, biggest shock came when WJ). Muhammed announced whites would now be considered for membership. People reacted as if an earthquake had hit. ‘Father to son’ W.D. Muhammed ascended to the leadership on February 26, one day after his father’s death was announced. Yet, the doubters were not satisfied. It’s just a “dynasty," “father to son, father to son,” they said. But Minister Farrakhan pointed out this was a false issue. The question should have been, is the man qualified? Muslim leadership had been well aware of his qualifications long Resounding no This was the process Minister before the world or even the rank-and-file believers'knew W.D.

Surginor reported that about 40 percent of the freshman class here live in New York, west of Syracuse. Those who are not accepted may face financial problems. Like many colleges and universities, medical school tuitions are on the rise. The Medical School at this University raised its tuition for state residents by $400 to $2000 per year. This is a relatively small amount when compared with private medical schools. George Washington University Medical School recently raised its tuition to $15,000 per year. Special preference During a question and answer period, Surginor said the male-female ratio of acceptance is proportional to the ratio of applications, indicating that women are not favored. However, many minority applicants are admitted with lower grade point averages and lower MCAT scores. “Standards are only lowered in measurements of intellectual ability,” said Surginor. “We have to ask, were they (minority applicants) intellectually disadvantaged?” Medical schools operate on the premise that they are. “That problem should disappear with time and we are seeing that.” Th* personality screening process remains the same, he maintained. Asked whether this University’s graduates receiye special preference on the part of the Medical School here, Surginor said that only 14 of the 135 students in the current freshman class graduated from this University, but added, “We would like to see more than _ Bailey speaks of propaganda than they want, a Palestinian state would not solve the problem. It would irritate the situation, by Faith Prince Staff Writer Spectrum according to Bailey, by simply providing a foothold which would be used to pressure Israel. “They don’t want the West Bank or Gaza,” Bailey insisted. “They want a foothold to get Jaffa, Haifa, Ramla Although be admitted the Palestinian plight is a very real one, he argued that the proposed solution negates the Israeli cause, which he, as a lew and Israeli supporter feels is infinitely more important. He sees the attempt to create a parallel between the Jewish and Palestinian exiles as absurd. “These people belong to a Moslem-Arab world,” he said, “No such cultural environment existed for the exiled Jew. “Arab propaganda,” and the necessity of dealing with it were the topics of a lecture by Clinton Bailey of the Tel Aviv and Hebrew Universities Monday night. Bailey’s appearance was sponsored by the Israel Information Center,. After writer Cyhthia Ozick, the originally scheduled speaker, cancelled due to a snowstorm in New York City. Bailey spoke of tbe danger inherent in the wide acceptance of platitudes which he contends have no basis in fact. In particular, he attacked the assumption that a Palestinian state must be created to exist side-by-side with Israel in order to have peace in the Middle East. This idea basically appeals to two groups, he explained. First, those who are unrealistic about the necessary components of a viable state, and secondly, those who feel that Israel has no right to exist in the first place. “There will never be peace if the Palestinians get independence,” Bailey stated. He pointed out that a state consisting of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank would have no economic viability. Gaza is extremely overcrowded, and all the available natural resources stretched to the limit. The West Bank is desolute, he continued, and also undeveloped. Much of the inhabitants’ income is derived from labor performed outside the area i.e. in Israel. .. __ anchored “It can’t be both ways. If they get what they want we can’t get what we want.” Bailey vehemently rejected the viewpoint that Israel has no right to exist,.but nevertheless, viewed it as a real threat. He stressed that the Jews must stubbornly cling to what they have, and build their state population-wise as well as technologically. Only when there is a heavily-populated Jewish state which appears immoveable will the campaign to destroy Israel subside, he declared. ‘They know what they want and they’re all mobilized. But they can only get what they want when they tire out the other side. They can also be tired out,” he concluded. He stressed that this tiring-out process will not take place through mere waiting, but through seeing that an Israel exists which is too strongly anchored in the Middle East to be moved. In the long run, he said, this is the answer which will silence Israel’s opponents.

Lie everybody else The idea of student-run businesses occupying space in the development has been suggested, Cohen said. He said Latona assured him the student-run services “will be considered like everyone else” who seeks a place in the development. One prime consideration, he added, will be the service’s ability to pay the rent for the space, presumably ruling out any special studcnfdiscount on rental fees. Earlier this year. Sub Board I, Inc. wrote to Latona about securing s6me space in the development. The correspondence, according to a Sub Board spokesperson requested consideration for “space” in the commerical development when facilities become available. According to Latona, he saw no “legal or philosophical reasons” to prevent Sub Board from becoming involved in the project. However, he stressed that those businesses which already contacted the UB Foundation will be the first to be considered for space. Use offee .7—. Dental), funds UUAB, student publications. Health Care Division, and other services. Its Board of Directors consists of officers from the different student associations. Avoiding trouble Members of the Board of Directors' apparently began reconsidering the decision to go above Ketter’s head in favor of further efforts toward compromise and out of fear that a complaint would bring Sub Board into conflict with even less accommodating officials than Ketter. The reconsideration may also be a necessary step toward exhausting all possible means of redress at the local level before Sub Board appeals to a higher authority. Sub Board Executive Director Tom VanNortwick and Board Chairman James Smalley had scheduled a meeting Monday with several administrators from the Division of Student Affairs, including Lorenzetti. Ketter was not expected to attend. The results of the meeting were not available at press time. In the past few months, the Ketter administration has been carrying out an unannounced policy of systematically questioning projects and services funded with mandatory student activity fees. - Growing list In addition to the actions already mentioned, the Ketter administration has, since last November, —reduced by one-half the volume of sales projected at the SA Record Coop following a complaint by Cavages Record Stores which said the Coop's existence on a state-operated campus pose “ruinous competition” (Cavage has asked the State Supreme Court to order the Coop closed); -withheld approval of a one year contract between SA and the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG), claiming the wording of the contract involving the services NYPIRG suuplies to the student body is vague; -requested to begin reviewing expenditures of TheSpectrum. The agreement to operate the Saturday morning Dental Clinic differs from that for the student pharmacy in that Sub Board is simply asking to underwrite the SI0,000 expense of keeping the dental clinic open for students Saturday mornings while Sub Board is asking to retain control of the pharmacy license besides paying the bills. Decision to be made about student pharmacy by ffike McGuire ' Campus Editor A decision on whether the Sub Board student pharmacy will remain open will be reached during the “next several days,” President Robert Ketter told the Faculty Senate at its meeting Tuesday in Hayes Hall. Ketter said he conceived the student role in the pharmacy to be “primarily a clerkship.” He reiterated his demand that Sub Board turn the license over the University, an action, the directors refused to carry out last week, and that the pharmacy be open only to students. Ketter also told the Faculty Senate that, despite its recent vote favoring certain types of exclusion from classes providing it was “non-ividious,” he though a directive from the SUNY Board of Trustees against exclusion should be interpreted strictly. Thus, Ketter said he refuses to recognize any grounds for exclusion from classes. Writing course tabled The exclusion issue came up when Women’s Studies College was forced to open five all-women courses to men, after the administration threatened to drop them from the registration computer if they remained exclusionary. Ketter promised the Faculty Senate that the report of the Committee on Academic Planning would be released within the next week. He also said that he was deferring a decision on whether to approve a Faculty Senate motion restricting the use of pass-fail grading until he consults with Dean Charles Ebert of the Division of Undergraduate Education. In other action, the Faculty Senate sent a proposal for a Basic Writing Course for freshmen back to committee for further study. While many of the members present said they supported such a course in some form, there were considerable differences over its exact set-up. P i tabled In votes which were non-binding because a quorum was not present at the time, a majority opposed the course being pass-fail, as had been proposed by the committee. By a 21-19 non-binding vote, members narrowly supported the course being mandatory for all freshmen. However, all but four members supported some form of basic writing course when they were polled on the issue. The Basic Writing Course was proposed by a committee headed by English professor John Dings, in response to complaints by some faculty members that students are deficient in language skills. As proposed by the committee, all freshmen would be required to take the course, which would be taught by professors from a number of departments and which would have mandatory pass-fail grading. The Faculty Senate did not take any action on another committee's proposal which would clear up some of the ambiguities in the current use of “Permission of Instructor” in registering for classes.

Buff State Protest against budget cuts Students at Buffalo State College will stage a massive state-wide demonstration at 12 noon today to protest SUNY budget in cuts announced Governor Hugh Carey’s budget. Students from all over the SUNY system as well as local community groups are expected to take part in the march that will begin in front of Rockwell Hall on Elmwood Avenue and proceed down Elmwood to City Hall. Student . Association (SA) President Michele Smith stated that while she supports the idea of the march she feels it will have little impact, and thus, SA is not playing a major role. She feels that at the present time, losses in student services should be the immediate concern because students can have direct impact on that situation. “While we can be out there marching, other services can be pulled right from under our feet,” she said. Student input Meanwhile, the Buffalo State United Student Government IUSG1. has worked along with their College’s Faculty-Student Senate to insure that students have some say in how the cuts may be absorbed there. Maria Scapione. USG Student Senator. told The Spectrum that a Senate designates which selective cutbacks in such areas as proposal Campus Security, intercollegiate athletics, and in the President’s, Dean’s and Bursar’s offices, has been agreed upon. This University has attempted to deal with its portion of the state-wide cutbacks by setting up specific committees to determine the criteria for making reductions. The President’s Committee on Budgetary Criteria, which released its yesterday’s findings in Reporter, has attempted to set up “some sort of yard stick or measuring device for Judging all kinds of University Programs,” according to Committee Chairman Charles Fogel. The criteria will consider the need, quality, effectiveness, and public utility of —Hear 0 Israel For gems from the Jewish Bible Phone 875-4265 — Passport/Application Photos UNIVERSITY PHOTO 355 Norton Hall a particular program, as well as the promise and quality that can be expected in the future. Fogel emphasized that there would be separate sets of criteria for the different types of programs, that the claiming Colleges and other new innovative projects would not necessarily be the first to be cut. Fogel said his committee was responsible for all of the University’s programs, and that a more specific “Academic would Committee” report probably be released next week. ARE YOU HAPPY?

As usual The Spectrum has distorted the facts; case concerning the role of the School of this in Pharmacy in the operation of the pharmacy in the Student Health Service. I would like to clarify our potion. 1. The School at no time wished to hold the license for the pharmacy, nor to undertake fiscal responsibility for its operation. We had no funds available for this purpose. Our sole interest in the pharmacy is its 2. availability as one site for clinical clerkships for our students. We therefore do wish to exercise some control over the character of the professional services offered and of the caliber of the professional staff. This is the case at all sites where bur students will be in training. At the present time we are not able to 3. utilize community pharmacies as training sites, contrary to a statement in The Spectrum. We will assure not only the highest caliber 4. of professional services, but also that prolessional ethics are strictly adhered to. For example, wc consider it unethical to solicit professional practice through advertising prices of drugs. This is true no matter who holds the license. It is true that advertising of prescription drug prices is illegal in New York State, the daw being based on the fact that such advertising is often misleading to the public who are generally not knowledgeable about the character of professional services involved. Whether or not that law is repealed, misleading the public is unethical and will not be allowed by us in any site in which our students are involved. We frankly hope the matter of the license is settled quickly by the parties involved, so that the students on this campus, may continue to have available to them the highest possible caliber of pharmacy service. Michael ,-t. Schwartz. PhD Dean. School oj Pharmacy — Although no administrator will acknowledge it publicly, Ketter and Assistant Vice President Anthony Lorenzetti are taking guidelines which are deliberately vague, which allow for a great deal of flexibility, and interpreting them in the strictest way possible. Each week as the snowball picks up momentum, we find that the reasoning and the tactics used by the adminstration in questioning activities one by one are quite objectionable. Rather than approaching a particular service first, the adminstration, oblivious to any interpretation of the mandatory fee guidelines other than its own, disrupts the functioning of the operation by manipulating the flow of student money and then proceeds to the bargaining table. This way, if students offer any demands, the administration has safer, more resistance to threatening ground to fall back on. Invisible overload To the Editor. Robert Ketter is not a very well-liked individual on this campus. Many of his actions, especially during the last few weeks, have been attacked by The Spectrum. He has been east as the underlying cause of many of the problems at this University. Ketter has taken measures which seem unjustified. However, the real issue is Iris unwillingness to communicate to the thousands of students he presides over. Ketter seems to have no desire to dispose of the unpopular image he has gained through “publicity" in The Spectrum. The fact that he makes no attempt to challenge anything printed in our newspaper leads the student to believe one of two things. Hither the stories in The Spc-ctruui are basically true, or the opinions of Hie student body are so unimportant l<b him that he sees no point in clarifying his position. Robert Ketter is a sort of mystery man to many of the students at this University. I feel I may finish four years here and never see our president, aside from the caricatures in The Spectrum. I do not see Ketter as a president, but as an overlord. He is a threat to our rights rather than a defender of them. Would it be expecting too much to occasionally see the man who holds ultimate power over University affairs'? I suggest that he come out of seclusion, dispell the mystery surrounding him (does he actually exist'?), and clarify his position on issues presently in the spotlight. Ketter must have reasons for his actions. The fact that he does not express them leads me to believe his reasons are not in the best interest of the student body. For instance, how much do outside business interests affect his decisions concerning the Record C’odp. student pharmacy and NYPIRG-SA? Also, how can he make decisions which will directly affect the students when he has little or no interaction with them? I would be interested in knowing Mr. Ketter’s background, how he attained his present office, and what is keeping him there. I wonder if there is an opportunity, as well as a need, for change. As things stand, something seems terribly wrong. The Spectrum is obviously directed toward the The fact that the Record Coop was shut down before and therefore slanted in. their lav or. As well students any negotiations began between the Student Association and it should be, for it is the newspaper of the students the administration or that the pharmacy managers learned of this University, the students for which this it presents the altitude of the that bills weren't being paic( from the drug companies and University exists, (if an attitude,can be defined when body student not from the person (Ketter)\who blocked the expenditures dealing with such a diverse group 1.

Danca wOuld History," a Dance in "The Rise of Social American Significance In lecture/slide presentation sponsored by the Speakers Bureau and the that led UUAB Dance Committee, Selma Jean Cohen retraced die from dance as an escapist art to that which stems from and portrays America the reflections of its people. Cohen began her history career in pursuit of a ballet of social significance. Her search was unwillingly ended when she was forced to ■admit that there was no such ballet. Instead, she set out to find out •> — why. In the eighteenth century, America celebrated its first classical ballet dancer, John Nurang. He wanted to impress upon his audience an air of elegance, but in truth appeared more like a harlequin than anything else. Regardless, the matter of style was settled. Europe was in, and American was unheard of. European style "All of the subjects for dancers came frpm Europe, especially France. No one was interested in doing anything American from the arts. The audience didn't seem to want anything else," Cohen recounted. By the end of that century, dancers were performing little patriotic skits, but although the theme was now different, technique was still the same. A noted dancer during this period was George Washington Smith. Dance became more popular in this country as the years went by, the major talent centers being the East Coast down to New Orleans, and certain mid-western cities like St. Louis. Touring companies would travel across the country, picking up performers as they went along. Choreographers would often look for local girls and turn them into "stars" for short durations. The girls were instructed to "skip, skip, and then poke around." Obviously hop, run, run, pose and balance this in the mid-nineteenth century, during period professional too not the function of dance as a performing art was actually a divertissement for after-theatre. Once a play was over, the dance would begin, and most dances were listed in playbills. — Fairyland The dance stage became a fairyland, decorated by delicate, floating and flowery women. Young girls "flew" across the stage, supported by wires; The entire scenerio was similar to that of Ziegfeld's Follies, {•something "for tired businessmen," Cohen quipped. s& T In the.years that,followed, ballet maintained its classical styles of performance. Dancers leaped for the stars, distant and yet still bound by the prescribed ballet vocabulary. Toes remained pointed, legs were turned out, and the motion was forward and upward. In the early 1920's, an actress, Loie Fuller received a gift from a friend. The gift was a sari, and the woman became infatuated by its change of colors under different lights. On stage she manipulated shape and light to enhance her costume, changing the focus of her dance, ■ ' experimenting. At the age of 8, Isadora Duncan announced to her ballet teacher, don't "I like this, I think it's ugly, goodbye," forever leaving the realm of ballet. Modernizing dance and freeing it, she was entirely self-taught and self-obedient. She fully believed that everyone could be beautiful and at peace with their own lives; she believed that anyone could dance. Free dance style However, not everyone believed the same of Isadora. "Ballet people said that she had no technique, and most Americans never forgave her for her free life style," related Cohen. "But there was a simplicity. She was a great parable of a new freedom in America; poets, painters and artists knelt at her feet." "People who saw Isadora dance have told me, 'I can't tell you what she did, but I'll never forget it'." Like Isadora Duncan, Ruth St. Denis did not have a very enhanced insisted upon a "more noble, spiritual dance," something more than "step, step, kick." She would isolate an event, person, or photograph, transcending her own artistic era, striving for simplicity and purity. Upon viewing Hindus on the Coney Island boardwalk or posters of Egyptian deities in a drugstore, she would invent dances Inspired by the ideas of these subjects, emphasizing that they were not the actual, original dances. She hailed herself as a goddess, and her dances often placed women on pedestals. technique, but instead f 'Spasms and jerks' The Denishawn Company, among others, finally discovered that twentieth century Americans ought not to be solely voyeurs, but more importantly, the subjects of the dances they witnessed. Martha Graham, who was described as that "angular woman who moves in spasms and jerks," reflected her movements on current American society. In order to create a new dance form, she felt it necessary to withdraw into the primitive mysteries, to seek one's own roots. Her movements were not pretty like the French dancers', but were instead strong and heavy. Her motion was earth-bound, recognizing gravity and the earth as good. Even her jumps were heavy, as if working against gravity, instead of denying it. In "Frontier," Graham celebrates vastness and the future. When the dancer in this piece slowly lifts her leg, it is not to exhibit turn out, but rather to give a feeling of space. Graham began her company using as little movement as possible, and then slowly built up, adding scenery and costumes. continued on page 12 } i, Vi UVj'J O , �I V Our Weekly Reader ¥ Dennis Smith. The Final Fire (Saturdiy Review Press/E.P. Dutton & Co., $7.95, fiction, 239 pp.) I used to work in a small printing shopf. There was only one odd thing about it; nearly feveryone employed except me -t was, or had been at one time, a there fireman. A volunteer fireman. The kind who would, in Kurt Vonnegut Jr.'s words, "take to the Woods with hunting knives and Springfields" if the Russians ever invaded the United States. Jf In the four years I worked there I was regarded with special tenderness since I was just a gink, a mere boy in the midst of a throng of pyrotechnical wizards, all of them straightforward and manly. Still, despite my special state of innocence, I soon learned to steel myself against both the horror and sentiment of one particular civilian variation on the war story: the fire story. Finely detailed fire anecdotes were hastily grafted onto every open-ended conversation. I heard a lot of stories and I learned a lot more than is decent about fires. In all that time, while I myself was studying literature in school, there was only one publishing event that struck any of my fellow workers as significant or exciting; in February 1973, Dennis Smith's first book. Report from Engine Co. 82, appeared in paperback. (It had appeared in hardback exactly a year before, but who could afford to buy a copy?) Report was an instant favorite. Everybody had a copy, which he would jealously read at lunch time. Virtually all conversation ceased, disappearing in a puff of literary smoke. For the American volunteer fireman it was the little red book. Not only was it written by a professional, but it was written by a big city professional. Irritating visions of brush fires and smoldering mattresses and hot dog stand grease fires shimmered and rose up like heat waves on a desert road, revealing an imaginary paradise of authentic disaster. For my friends it was a real literary event. The only — apartment, whom he lived in a North Bronx was constantly chiding him and thought he was a failure for not taking any one girl seriously. Dominic was a chest beater about being single. He loved the life of a bachelor, the life of a bachelor fireman, and often teased the other men about being chained to a wife, a house, a family. "Life is too short," he would say, "to give this sweetheart up to just one woman." .<> Like Leslie Fiedler's ur-cowboy the figure of Dominic Gallo embraces a fascinating paradox; at the same time he is virile to an extreme, he is essentially asexual. It is not surprising that Gallo surfaces at the end of The Final Fire to turn back the tide of the reckless strike which threatens the ruin of entire city. Yelling "automatically, naturally," he broke from a picket line and ran towards a burning building to help. His flight is emblematic of Smith's flight from words and abstractions (the strike debate) to action and heroism and suspense. Even the tress in Central Park had started to burn. v In effect, everybody followed Dominic. ~an — I other ' " * " v . firemen moved alas, quickly, spontaneously, as if a wall had been lifted from in front of them, releasing the trapped fury of their dilemma, resolving their anxiety, transforming it to action. The The Ritter brothers, Tom and Jerry, represent the “Everyman" in this proletarian morality play. Both are pointedly articulate; Jerry writes more poetry than he reads (which is a great deal) and he can quote Dylan Thomas at the drop of a firehat; Tom has a college degree and is subject to at least one recurring nightmare of other side of kind. Now Dennis Smith's second book, The Final Fire, has appeared. It is a novel. have not been back to the printing shop since was laid off a year ago, but wonder now if anyone is reading Dennis Smith this time. Somehow doubt it. The beauty of Smith's first book was that it was a memoir which read like a good adventure novel without the liability of actually being one; it was fast, accurate and and compellingly written. But The Final Fire is a novel I I I I novel. Instead of celebrating a brotherhood of workers as the prototype worker's novels of the 30's did, Smith's novel deliberately celebrates the brotherhood of all men as the higher form of togetherness. In doing this, of course, he risks the pat simplicities and lurking absurdities of any sentimental interpretation of human events. Certainly all this right cardboard cutouts are evident, masquerading as real people as they wobble on and off the stage: the overweight journalist looking for a good fire story, the aging fire chief who is only a few clotted heartbeats away from retirement to Ireland just as disaster strikes, the moronic and corrupt union official; the young mayor of New York with the liberal demeanor and the political heart; and Dom Gallo himself, whose heart is as big as a - I — a series of blunders and miscalculations during negotiations for a contract, frustrated firemen go out on strike one morning (not realizing their votes were miscounted purposefully). And because of a series of freaks and accidents, within an hour New York City is threatened with extinction by fire. The final fire. The last part of the book is excellently written, in the best tradition of suspense fiction, and of all the disaster films and books to sweep into the book market, The Final Fire is easily the most believable. (To this day, Dennis Smith is an active firefighter in New York City.) But in order to get to these gripping last pages the reader has to slog through what amounts to a dramatized union-hall dialectic. And in the truest proletarian-literary fashion, this underlying dialectic has the distinct air of an old morality play, in which God and the Devil battle for the soul of its dramatic worth; through Everyman. In this case "Everyman" has two separate but complementary masks: the fused personalities of two firefighting brothers (Tom and Jerry Ritter) and Smith's composite rendition of the essentiaI fireman in the person of huge, tough and big-hearted Dominic Gallo: He was 34 years old, and although his mother, with Jerry rejoins the firefighters too late and comes upon his brother's body. Within minutes he is making a tearful speech in front of a mobile television camera. (' He loved to read, he loved to play with his children, he loved his job , . .") It is obviously the moment Dennis Smith has flawlessly arranged for us, after drawing our sensibilities through the corrupt miasma and confusion of union politics. Jerry's speech represents the moment in The Final Fire at which the book's ideas merge with its sentimental making it finally look like what it really underpinings .has been all along: not a proletarian novel, but a "popular" — though it reads nearly as well as the first book, imagine readers like my old friends are understandably suspicious, they are looking for the same utility and authenticity they found in Report From Engine Co. 82. By and large, they will finds these qualities, which were not replaced when Smith shifted into a fictional gear. But they will have to look harder. Story and action and detail are still important to Dennis Smith, as they were in the first book, but in The Final Fire, there is only one and it is drawn central story (not a series of episodes) out beyond brightness of innocence, all pain momentarily past and . forgotten. roast beef allegorical clarity. Both brothers are outrageously brave, are competent men of action, but both operate at a slight remove from the gaudy outward affection the other men display The two brothers are distinct in one important way; Jerry is a gay bachelor whose mental processes swing back and forth as wildly as his love affairs. (He finally settles on the pro-strike side of the issue.) Tom is married, has a family outside the city, and is happy with his wife in such a way that is only possible in popular books these days. (He steadfastly elects to break the strike and fight fires.) Naturally enough, while everyone else is in effect "considering the political aspects of it," Tom Ritter needlessly dies in a nickel-and-dime fire. At the end "just as he always expected he would," Tom dreams of his wife in the picture with the English pram and their newborn son, her brown hair flowing, her face radiating in the — artd just as hard to imagine these days. Dennis Smith, working fireman and novelist, is one of the few genuine American writerx today who operate in anything close to the old proletarian literary tradition devised by the likes of Mike Gold in the 20's and 30's. (Joseph Wambaugh is another one that comes to mind; and Mike Cherry.) And like his predecessors (the final example of whom was the Steinbeck of Cannery Row and The Grapes of Wrath), Smith seems to have discovered the true roots of the proletarian tradition in the space of one novel: when all the boiling and bubbling is over, what is left is a rich extract of pure sentiment. But at the same time, Smith represents all <the finest qualities of the proletarian tradition as well: authentic technical detail, believable male banter, suspenseful action that can only be the product of real experience, and (snagged in the matrix of ideas) some damned good stories. —Corydon Ireland Corydon Ireland is Book Editor of The Spectrum and a teaching fellow in the English Department.

Opulent, elegant, it instantly bombards and gratifies one's senses. The theatre’s lobby Is hung with massive hand-cut chandeliers which, illuminate the marble panels, glistening mirrors and velvet furniture. Sink into one of the throne* and admire the intricate terra-cotta finish way up there on the ceiling. The versatile stage can accommodate dance, opera and musicals, so it poses no threat to currently operating theatres. Future plans include resident as well as touring companies, and film festivals. The February 25 premiere features George Burns and Cab Calloway with Calloway's daughter, a vocalist. The show will be repeated the weekend of February 28, minus George Burns. One pf vaudeville's greatest comedians. Burns rarely performs on the stage any more, but consented because he remembers when the Buffalo, then known as Shea Theatre, was outstanding as the greatest showplace between New York and Chicago. — Bicentennial Singers.

The musicians' lobby seats several musicians, and is equipped with a reproducing piano, which is an embellished player piano boasting rolls recorded "by the masters," and the full dynamics of a stringed piano. The lobby is an unintended gallery, but the second tier was designed by C.W. and George Rapp to contain display halls. A few of the original paintings remain, along with several century-old statuettes. The mezzanine, "powder" rooms and vomitories (the passageways leading into the house) are cushioned with red and gold brocade-lrke carpeting to match the silk which once adorned the walls. Careful investigation reveals a few panels, but unfortunately, most of them have deteriorated beyond repair.

When Loew's took Over this moviehouse after Mike Shea's death, the clock was equipped with electrical works. So, when time and finances allow for such details, the clock will be refitted with weights. The only feasible way to maintain this theatre is through non-profit sponsorship. The present owners are the Friends of the Buffalo Theatre. The theatre is re-opening undering the directorship of Curt Mangel as a community center in support of the performing arts in Buffalo, and responsive to public interest. This status is vital to the operation of the palace, as it seats over 3,200 people. Unfortunately, an orientation towards profit often means negligence and corner-cutting right through to the heart, resulting in the demise of so many of Buffalo's finest old buildings. (The Buffalo Theatre is now listed in the National Register of Historic Places.) The dimension of the house are spectacular. The domed ceiling, fashioned after one in a European opera house, peaks at 89 feet. The stage is 65 feet wide, will be expanded to 60 feet deep, and is fronted by a pit which can seat a full orchestra of pleased musicians. The proscenium can be elevated, and contains the only remaining original conductor's podium of that era. The sound system is good the balcony needed no supporting pillars and the rich tones of one of the finest Wurlitzer organs ever built will reach the ears of everyone in the house. Also beginning its fifty-first year, this orchestral organ resonates to the tone of over 2,000 pipes, another marvel justifying a visit to the Buffalo Theatre.

As demonstrated on the first two albums, Jim Messina had put together a really good studio ensemble, one which contained enough talent and instrumental diversity to outplay many of its guitar-ridden country-rock contemporaries. The refreshing mix of two songwriting styles, augmented by precise harmonies and infinitely varied backing arrangements was a great moneymaker, as it rightly deserved to be. However, the occasionally brilliant songwriting and-unique harmonies soon gave way to schmaltiy pop and fifties-rock influences, and the successive albums are notable only for Messina's still-active talents as producer and arranger. With the release of Native Sons, Loggins and Messina have entered the realm of groups like Chicago and the Ooobie perpetually mediocre, dressed up like Brothers 1850's prospectors on the cover, nice Americana sleeve design, etc. very cute, no? Kenny and Jim no longer seem to be collaborating much on singing or songwriting, and sound the large complement of backup musicians bland and predictable. Although the production is Still as clean and professional as ever, the arrangements sound weak, repetitive and uninspired. The 10 new songs on Native Sons present nothing at all out„of the ordinary. Rather than experimenting with unusual acoustic textures as he has in the past, Messina is sticking pretty much to namely, too much electric sounds already heard guitar and horns. Although a slight musical disappointment, the album does have its moments of true idiocy; there is a Jim Messina song entitled "Boogie Man" which $115.50 — I | ALSO AVAILABLE: I LESSONS, TENNIS, SA UNA. SWIMMING POOL. ICE SKA TING MEAL PLAN CROSS COUNTR Y.SKIING | offers, to the tune of "Johnny B.

It looks like Messina has decided that, since there is no more Vietnam, the oil shortage is the thing to sing about and he does, using the very poetic analogy of a case of constipation: - The Arabs sell us our petroleum jelly A little dab at a time And I guess It's all righ t. There's always Mazo I a So keep yourself a bottle at home But / guess it's all right. Cause Washington's working. Power to the porcelain throne . ... .. As if that isn't bad enough, the opening segment the of the song -contains a buy-centennial salute vbices of Our American Forefathers, reading famous historical documents. It's going to be one of those — years. The Kenny Loggins songs on this Ip seem to be if only because they contain nothing as offensive lyrically as the last two examples. The songs “My Lady, My Love," and "Foxfire" are pleasant (for lack of a better word) and prove that, although Loggins is not going anywhere musically, he is at least not getting bad as fast as his partner. It is probably safe to say that Native Sons will not get any AM air play (it is already not getting any FM airplay) but maybe Kenny and Jim will get the hint and get back on tbe creative track they seem to have lost a few years back.

Whether it's been bassist Graham Gouldman scribbling such commerical '60's successes as “Heart Full of Soul" for the Yardbirds and "Bus Stop" for the Hollies or lead guitarist Eric Steward warbling the lead vocal on the Mindbenders' "Groovy Kind of Love," the lOcc's members have been industrious inhabitants of the fickle and transient scene, of contemporary music. The band already has three excellent albums under their collective belts plus their single smash "I'm Not in Love" wf>ich was culled and edited down from the Original Soundtrack. lOcc's musical forte and trademark has been the ability_,to marry marvelously witty lyrics with melodic meter. How Dare You! finds lOcc continuing its priestly duties in bestowing the holiest of sacraments upon lyric and melody. The nature of lOcc's songs often takes the form of whimsical and pungent vignettes that disclose telling commentaries on current life. lOcccan inject the sarcastic, jaded tone of an Evelyn Waugh or package a song with a surprise ending similar to an O'Henry short story. How Dare You! loosely focuses on the motifs of sexuality and communication. "Don't Hang Up" expertly merges these themes through the use of a telephone call. A man calls up his estranged wife in hopes of rekindling some flames of love but turns up only The lyrics reveal a glories of smash records and the pleasures of being inundated by a waterfall of greenbacks and royalties. Eric Stewart sums up this philosophy perfectly with the maxim “Art for art's sake/Money for God's sake." The group even constructs an artifice td National Airline's sexist jingle. It's entitled "I'm Mandy, Fly Me" and combines an airplane flight with a flight of fantasy in a winning fashion.

"Society's Child," her first hit, came out in the mid-60's, when we were teenagers and so was she, and it was good to hear someone who sounded so intelligent singing to us. I was still too young to hit the Fillmore by myself (matinees being out of vogue), too young, as I remember, to buy drugs without begging and, the Strawberry Alarm Clock an advance on my allowance notwithstanding, there wasn't all that much good music around that I coujd relate to very well. But Janis didin't sound so self-sufficient either; "when we're older, things may change," she wailed, and we certainly knew what she meant. Then we got older, and we stopped listening. Maybe just because or maybe it was the other way around. she stopped recording Between the Lines last year awfully young to When she released it was as a have retired and come back already, but life is strange woman speaking to other women. It sounds obvious, but it isn't when Janis sings about life, it's her life, and few singers have managed to be so personal and so effective at the same time. Aftertones, her latest old collection, draws on the same very basic sorts of experience dreams, frustrated passions and so forth. But the interpretations she gives her fairly common problems turn them into extraordinary, if minor, bits of musical poetry. Janis still writes with the same ambivalence, the old uncertainty in her first album. She hasn't yet decided whether she has displayed she anything to be optimistic about, but she tries. Her lyrics are simple (sometimes embarrassingly so, if read without the music behind them, and "Dreams are all/ I have to give/ When we die/ Our dreams still live" will never be anyone's standard of excellence) but the arrangements arid voices make them terrific. Her soft, subtle soprano is highlighted by, never lost behind, the strings and'brass that often surround it, and the occasional vocal help comes from the likes of Odetta and Phoebe Snow.

Prodigal Sun �Guest Opinion by the Steering Committee Graduate Student Employees Union President Robert Ketter’s response to a Graduate Student Association (GSA) resolution requesting him to “recognize that graduate teaching assistants at UB are overworked, underpaid, and in fact, exploited" and “to bring these facts to the appropriate governmental bodies with the attention they deserve” has come as a callous insult to all Teaching Assistants (TAs) and Graduate Assistants (GAs) working at this University. Dr. Ketter’s response in a letter to Terry DiFilippo summarizes an earlier meeting with Mr. DiFilippo. Dr. Ketter states “I did not at all accept the notion that graduate teaching assistants were ‘overworked, underpaid and exploited,’ but rather stated that in many instances there is ample evidence and documentation that some do not work at all.” The Steering Committee of the Graduate Student Employees Union sees Dr, Ketter’s response as irresponsible and inexcusable in view of the difficult situation lacing TAs and GAs in a time of decreasing wages, increasing workload and lack of any protection relating to job security or accident insurance. The resolution, passed by theCiSA senate with no dissenting votes, also requests Dr. Ketter “to light for the payment of a living wage (S5000) to funded graduate students,” in view of the fact that "the average amount of stipend lor graduate students at SUNYAB (S2X89) is not sufficient for a persyn to live on,” Dr. Ketter replies “the level of support yoh |GSA) seek is totally unrealistic.” In response to the question of whether he would make a public statement in support of the $5000 per year assistantship level and in opposition to the four-year rule, Dr. Ketter states emphatically. In his letter. Dr. Ketter states. have continuously undertaken serious efforts to obtain increases in graduate student support... In fact, 1 felt that if (our emphasis added) increases were to be gained, it was going to be incrementally .. . certainly not all at once.” In point of fact, meaningful increases in assistantship salaries have not occurred in the past nine years. The fact , is that average TA and GA wages have decreased in buying power by more than 50 percent since the level was set in 1967. The fact is that we are tired of “serious efforts” which have produced nothing. "we In the past the administration has at least verbalized a knowledge of the fact the TA and GA salaries are inadequate. It is not as though they have been unaware of our situation. In a 1974 memorandum, February Graduate School Dean McAllister Hull refers to “the difficult salary situation for assistants." In a December 1975 memorandum, Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel states, “When we were preparing our 1975/76 budget request, we recognized that an improvement in TA-GA stipends was essential. They had not been materially increased for a considerable period. Our request to SUMY therefore, was for a 22 increase ..That percent increase never materialized. Mr. Fogel went on to point out that the 1976/77 fiscal budget request includes about an 8 percent increase in average assistantship levels. Can TA’s and GA’s expect even this inadequate increase? Can we expect the President University who seems to think that TA’s and GA’s don’t even work, to make “serious efforts’to fight to improve our situation? The Ketter Administration’s record speaks for itself. The Graduate Student Employees i Union was formed with the understanding that SUNYAB administrative policy does not necessarily reflect the best interests of graduate student employees or graduate and undergraduate education or students in general. We have seen the Ketter Administration eliminate undergraduate programs,-eliminate 165 TA and GA lines, eliminate numerous faculty and staff positions, increase undergraduate class sizes, with student interfere which benefit organizations students (such interfere with student governments’ rights to appropriate student monives, attack nontraditional forms of education such as the Collegesand attack all implementing students by cutbacks which seriously affect the availability and quality of education here. GSEU is one group within the University community which has organized to resist such attacks, to defend the rights of its constituency and to fight for quality public education. Yet administrators continue \o try to discredit and stop the efforts of TAs and GAs. A brief history exposes exposes administrative attempts to continue exploitation of graduate student employees. In February 1974 McAllister Hull, University Dean of the - , Graduate School, released the University’s “Guidelines for Graduate Assistantships.” Dr. Hull’s memo states, “The of the view university assistantship, from whatever source, is that it is principally to assist the student financially while he pursue? his/her degree objectives.” The guidelines state “The normal workload for TAs and GAs, including all duties should average in the range of 15 to 20 hours per week.” Nowhere in these guidelines or the memo was there any indication of the relationship of the TA/GA duties to the academic pursuits of the graduate student except that the TA/GA must be a graduate student “in good standing” and “maintaining registration with the concurrent appointment.” But on March 4, 1975, the administration decided it was time to issue a new set of “Guidelines for Graduate Assistants/’ guidelines which would be convenient to the administration’s efforts to stop a newly formed campus organization, GSEU. It was during the summer of 1974 that GSEU became an organization recognized by the Graduate Student Association (GSA). During that summer two public conferences were held by GSEU and in September 1974 the first GSEU Newsletter appeared on campus. In subsequent newsletters GSEU outlined the process of becoming a legally' recognized union to bargain for improving the status of TAs and GAs. GSEU began an authorization drive to obtain signatures on a petition legally required by the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). By March 1st, 1975, GSEU had collected the signatures of almost 500 TAs and GAs and was preparing to submit the petition to PERB. By March 1, 1975, GSEU had established itself as a serious ongoing organization. On March 4, 1975 the administration issued its new guidelines. The self serving nature of the new guidelines is obvious. In the March 4, 1975 memorandum from Albert Somit to implement “Guidelines for Graduate Assistants to replace (and extend) those (by McAllister Hull] in February 1974,” the administration began playing a different tune. “These activities (TA and GA appointments) are emphasized as a learning process rather than as productive The memo employment . “It cannot be continues, emphasized too strongly that the assistantships are basically quality education, work which is critical to the continued functioning of the University. Now v* hear grumblings that teaching wih be required of all graduate students, regardless of being funded or not. At least one department has recently instituted this policy and several others are considering it. GSEU sees this as fellowships designed to provide apprenticeship learning opportunities as well as financial supporj* for Hie inost meritorious graduate stWdentk available.’.’ The fact that significant work 15-20 hours per week” is required is not denied. Ip fact thfe memo states that TA work is monitored as part of the “teaching analysis procedures used by the University” and that “Failure to monitor these assignments properly results in unnecessary University embarrassment and may deny a student the stipend expected.” The fact that work is required, the fact that the work is part of the teaching load of the University, and the fact that if work is not performed the salary will not be paid all clearly differentiate TAs and GAs from fellowships which are, in fact, gifts. Dr. Ketter uses these same self-serving guidelines in his response to GSA: “Finally in this entire matter, I think it is necessary to bear in mind the fundamental purpose of graduate support is not to provide employment, but rather to assist in the attainment of graduate' education. Assistant ships are, in fact, for educational purposes and to distort this into the notion of ‘hired employment’ I think is in gross error.” The fact that TA and GA assistantships aid the individual graduate student in pursuing his/her degree is not denied: our assistantship money enables us to live and study in the University community. But the fact that TAs and GAs are simultaneously employees cannot be denied. We provide services in exchange for our money. Contrary to Dr. Ketter’s beliefs, we do work: work which is vital to tfie teaching and research responsibilities of this University; work which must be done satisfactorily to continue being paid, work which other employees, faculty or staff, would have to do if we didn’t, work which is essential in providing the ultimate in graduate student exploitation. Leaks from confidential memos state that junior faculty are the first to go In slated faculty cuts. With a free labor pool of 5000 graduate students to take up the slack, the University administration will no doubt try to find more excuses to further exploit graduate student employees. GSEU will take any necessary steps to ensure that the rights of graduate student employees at this University are defended. Finally we are annoyed by Dr. Ketter’s comments that the formation of a graduate student employees union will have “negative impact both for the individual graduate student as well as for the educational purposes and missions of this institution.” We know how unionization has benefited not only graduate students but also the University community as a whole at the Universities of Michigan, Wisconsin and Toronto. We know that the university community at each school actively supported the efforts of graduate student employees. We know that the administration of each school tried to discredit the unionizing efforts of graduate students, tried to intimidate union activists by means of arrests and suspensions and tried to confuse issues by various scare tactics of “having to pay taxes” or “causing tl»e financial collapse of the university.” We know all these things and we also know that the graduate student employees were successful in defending their rights as students, as employees and as members of the community.

The Spectrum apologizes for any inconveniences brought upon Sunshine House by this mistake. hospitals Friday, 6 February 1976 . The Spectrum .

The basketball Bulls will be facihg Long Island University tonight following the JV basketball game against Hilbert at 6:IS p.m. But tomorrow, instead of watching slap shots and pins, the focus in Clark Hall will be on backstrokes and ripostes. The swimming Bulls will face Alfred in the pool at 2 p.m., one hour after the fencing Bulls duel Elmira in Clark Hall. by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor It was a slightly different looking Buffalo basketball team that beat LeMoyne on Wednesday night at Clark Hall, 86—75. Three of the Bulls, George Cooper, Eric Spence and Vernell Washington, were all ineligible due to an incomplete grade from last semester. So, Bulls coach Leo Richardson inserted Larry Jones into Cooper’s spot at guard, and Ron McGraw took the place of forward Otis Horne, who had not practiced since the last game since he too was ineligible (although Horne subsequently cleared up his incomplete and did play against LeMoyne). This new quintuplet had been practicing all week as a unit, but Richardson was not sure how effective they would be. Consistency the key The Bulls’ two new starters responded with fifteen points each, and the new starting five, playing for the most part without any help from the bench, tamed in what Richardson called the Bulls’ most consistent performance of the yeas', and Buffalo picked up their, seventh victory against eleven Tosses. ' It didn’t take Buffalo long to get the lead against- a LeMoyne team which was also missing three players (due to the flu, However), as center Sam Pellom tipped in a — . rebound. one minute into the game to open the scoring. Buffalo never fell behind after that, and soon owned an eleven point lead. “We played consistent, with one exception we almost blew a twelve point lead twice,” said Although Richardson. Richardson’s numbers were a little off, apparently he realized that it was the Bulls’ bench that let the lead slip down to only three points near the end of the first half, as the Dolphins’ Tom Fletcher scored three buckets in under a minute to lead the charge. Bulls respond nineteen It wasn’t until minutes had gone by in the second half that Richardson went to his bench again. “I thought they [the starting five] did really 9:45 well,” he said. “There was no reason to take them out.” The Bulls responded to this vote of confidence by hitting on 53% of their shots in the second half, CLENCH JACKSON The MICHAEL CAINE Romantic Englishwoman compared to only opening half. » 1:30 -3:35 -5:35 7:40 -9:45 With about fourteen minutes to go in the game McGraw scored five straight points to give fhe Bulls their widest margin, a fourteen point lead. The Dolphins came back, as John Lauer and Jene Grey both got hot, and managed to close the lead to six, but they couldn’t get much closer until, with under two minutes - The to-ho-mo /k 11% vxszs B, C 7 SflC!C3B 32% in the 1:30 3:30 5:30 7:30 TTifftfSwToUir^^ 1 WOODSTOCK iu 1 J OM COMPUTI SHOW 7:10 JcOMWG UCAHTO HtBV WTTCH WOUWTAlh g ■.! Pwll R«my LeMoyne’s Dave Zalewski hit two freethrows to cut the Bulls lead to four. The Dolphins had switched to a full court press, which enabled Zalewski’s two freethrows, their press almost stole the ball again, but instead, Buffalo's Gary Domzalski was fouled. He hit the freethrow, first but more importantly, after that the Bulls made most of their one-and-one freethrow situations, instead of missing them as they have done occasionally in the past. Chris Conlon’s two freethrows with just fourteen seconds on the clock iced the victory for the Bulls. Buffalo only missed five of 27 freethrows the whole game, way above average for them. remaining, “I thought we ran our offense better than we have all year,” Richardson said. “Our defense wasn’t bad. Overall, we played reaLWell,” Since Richardson could not say how long it would be before the three ineligible Bulls would return, he probably would continue to use this new combination which appeared to be so successful. Tonight, the Bulls will go Long Island University, All-American Ernie featuring Douse. According to Richardson, it will be one of the toughest games of the year, especially since the Blackbirds will be trying to avenge a three point loss to against Buffalo last year, while the Bulls will be trying to prove it was no fluke. “They [LIU] are just about like we are. They have a little more experience and a little more talent,” Richardson added. JUST 10 MINUTES FROM CAMPUS AT COLVIN EXIT OF YOUNGMANN So.

AjJi; 'J FWda^^PebrttarV 1 1976 by David J. Rubin Well, it looks like the war is starting up again. The,forces of Clark Hall, Hayes Hall and Norton Hall are mobilizing their arsenal of facts, figures and propaganda as the 1976 athletic tug of war gets underway. For the past few years, the mqjor battles have raged between student forces fighting for and against the maintenance of funds for athletics. Pro-sports people claimed that intercollegiate sports was necessary for a complete education and a proper university, while anti-athletics folk argued that sports, especially intercollegiate sports, create too large a bill for students to foot when organizations like CAC and NYPIRG are equally hungry for funds So far, intercollegiate sports has survived although it had a leg amputated when football was eliminated, and a finger chopped off with the dissolution of crew. But this year, it appears that the sports supporters will be facing the most uphill of climbs. Last year, the now defunct SFA, Students for,, the Future of Athletics, stacked the Student Association senate and worked out an austerity budget for another year. They probably could do the same again this year if they had to. But the real threat to intercollegiate athletics now stems from the University itself. It is the administration which is threatening to cut a chunk out of the $152,000 promise it made to athletic coaches over the summer. Forget about why or how this promise may be broken. Just realize that unless someone somewhere find's a way to make sure that this money is kept available for coaches' salaries, there may be no like to intercollegiate sports next September. The administration see SA pick up this unwanted expense, but SA funds are spread so thin already that there is no way they could pick up any sizeable new tab. Once again, athletics is fighting for its life. Last year, it fought the students for every penny of SA money it could get, and somehow managed to get enough. But this year, it will have to take on a much more difficult foe. Moral persuasion does not work on administrators who are thinking “cutback.” There are no voting bodies like SA which athletics backers can stack the way they did for the SA budget debates last year. It’s too early to tell who will lose the war this year. If cutbacks are sizeable, then athletics will lose. If SA is convinced to somehow give even more money to athletics than it already does, then it will strain itself tremendously. Even the administration, in all fairness, will lose every time it cuts back on funding for anything. One thing is certain, however, the battle will be long and bloody. Clark Hall will shower the administration with an unrelenting verbal attack. Hayes will strike back quietly but powerfully with threats of greater and greater cutbacks. SA will stand firm, willing to maintain its current funding leveC but determined not to get hooked for more money. All in all, it will not be a pretty sight. We’ll hear the same old charges, the same old arguments. The same old proposals will be made, and the same old denials will be issued. However, this year has a different twist. Somehow, you’ve got to believe that this time around, will be reached. settlement is somehow reached, the next few weeks and months will probably be another monetary nightmare for the coaches players, and even fans who believe as 1 do that intercollegiate sports are an integral part of any university. no settlement Even if a Of THEATRE ifiE CENTURy A SEASON VT f± �y • '' » v ','T' ■ . ciaisffiiD USED calculator Te*.

Speakers arc judged on the clarity of their arguments, the quality of their evidence, and their speaking ability. Persuasive speaking consists of an individual delivering an original ten-minute speech, trying to persuade the listener to a certain point of view. Extemporaneous speaking, which Cohn believes to be the most difficult individual speaking event, consists of a spontaneous five-to-seven minute speech on a topic which the speaker receives a half hour before he must deliver it. The most important characteristic a speaker must have, according to Cohn, is poise. “You have to stay calm, and think on your feet," she explained. “Even after you've done it lots of times, it's still scary.” Both Cohn and Jones are experienced speakers, and the recipients of numerous honors both in high school and college. Cohn feels the Bicentennial Youth Debates are an excellent way for college students to 'cut through all the publicity" and find something “real” and interesting to them in the bicentennial Sectional competition of the nationwide Bicentennial Youth Debates progrtmi! Mike Junes, who took first place in the extemporaneous speaking category, and Dene C hn. who look second, will represent Western New York’s universities in competition in Rochester later this month. Jones and Cohn qualified for the competition after winning this University’s local tournament in December. Two other members of the Debate Society also qualified for the Buffalo State competition, but only Jones and Cohn finished high enough to continue on to (he Sectionals.

The investigation is not complete. Anything we found is confidential.” Iris and Ninth Floor Resident Advisor Matt Astroff, tried to reconstruct the incident. “He walked into my room about ten minutes before it happened,” said Astroff, “and he didn’t appear to be under the influence of any drugs. But very few kids knew him because he only moved in about a week and a half ago “The kid was lying on his bed, fully clothed and even wearing his boots,” said Iris. “We began the resuscitation process and then Security and the doctors took over.

The student died in his ninth floor room, after mouth to mouth resuscitation and cardiac massage by Head Resident Ron Iris and an ambulance team failed to revive him. The cause of death is as yet unknown. An autopsy was performed by the County Medical Examiner, however, and a final report should be completed by the end of the week. The report will come in two parts, a microscopic anatomy analysis and a toxicology report. The information to be released by the toxicologist will determine if any drugs were present in the student’s body at the time of his death. Money and Drugs “We couldn’t officially say anything,” commented Patrick Glennon, Director of Campus Security. “None of us know the cause of death; the County Medical Examiner has told us nothing.

Dr. Luther Musselman, Acting Director of University Health Services, who was summoned to Goodyear and present at the post-mortem inquiry, noted that, “This is a very unusual situation. The student was physically sound at one moment and ten minutes later, he was dead.” The contents of the victim’s stomach were examined, but there was “nothing grossly identifiable,” said Musselman. Although he refused to speculate about the cause of death, Musselman did not rule out the possibility of drugs. “We are trying to get the toxicologist to speed things in the possibility that there is some product being used up on campus that is dangerous. We will try to mak£ the information available to the student public, if legally possible,” he said. Students are advised that Sunshine House will analyse for free any substance thought to be chemically dangerous, and will return the substance to its rightful owner, once proven safe. Some students have expressed fears that Campus Security will conduct a thorough search of the dorms for drugs as a result of the death incident. However, Glennon denied this charge, stating, “This does not warrant mass raids on the dorms. We cannot conduct searches without probable cause; there is no legal basis for triggering such a thing.” , »v«v»*»vj& diamond inside a covering." staled L.K. Misra. a teacher of Yoga and Meditation from the Himalayan Institute of Chicago on Saturday evening. "The self is hidden underneath a cover, and we are afraid to open it and look at it Misra believes that society poses an obstacle to pure self-analysis by classifying and labeling people. “Many people confuse superficial labels with the ‘self.” Misra complained. “In this society, unless a man wears the nicest suits, he is not respected.” Misra pointed out that many people define themselves as society has classified them. “For example, if I ask you. ‘sho wre you and what are you’ most people respond by stating their name, occupation, and education. All these are given to " you.” Misra cited his own education as an illustration the labeling syndrome. “My colleagues encouraged me to study for a doctorate degree, even though I felt that an extra degree was unnecessary. They told me that I would be more respected and that my credibility would be high. I am today the same man, with the same knowledge, but I get more respect because of an extra title.” The first step in analyzing the self, according to Misra. is the realization that our selves, are not our bodies, names or possessions. “Once these coverings are shed, we can see what we really are,” he said. of I SHA WNI | CENTER Career Day 1976 FESTIVAL SEATING!!

He would be able to understand their actions. Misra feels that man is essentially good. “It is important that you keep this in mind, or else it is easy to become discouraged,” Misra asserted. “The key to self analysis is in separating what you have from what you are.

Anti-abortion forces win small victories by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum (CPS) Working quietly under the surface, anti-abortion forces across the country are still chipping away at the 1973 Supreme Court decision which legalized abortion. And although the abortion opponents have not won the major battle for a constitutional amendment barring abortions, they have carried home several small victories. Some 60 anti-abortion bills were introduced in Congress last year, the Human Life Amendment which was later defeated in University including storefront Main Street near the on by Diane Gidin subcommittee.

The two Social Sciences Executive Committee members made their statements in an interview with The Spectrum Friday. “The erosion of student rights here is phenomenal,” they said, citing the current Administration investigations of activity fee funds as an example. The two connected restraints on the Student Association (SA) funding to what they termed a “return to staunch law *n’ order on this campus” that has turned back many of the gains made by the student movement of the sixties and early seventies. Kling and Weeks were also critical of the current actions of the Colleges Chartering Committee, especially their monitoring of classes in Social Sciences and in Tolstoy College (College F). “We have no objection to being judged by our peers,” said Weeks, “but we object to having history teachers judged, for instance, by a psychiatrist who might have little or no background in history. We don’t think any unit in the University should have to submit to such arbitrary procedures.” Biased committee Kling added that he senses an ideological bias against the College on the part of the Administration and some members of the Chartering Committee. “Our College is No coordination Kling and Weeks pointed out that while groups such as the Graduate Student Employees Union (GSEU) and the Graduate Student Association (GSA) have taken strong devoted to the teaching ofradical social theory, something that is deemed important by one-third of the people on earth if not by some at this University. And we do object to having courses on Marxism evaluated by strong anti-Marxists.” The Colleges Chattering Committee is currently carrying out “reviews” of Social Sciences Colleges and Tolstoy College which were mandated by President Ketter when he approved charters for the two in January 1975. Members of the Committee were chosen by the Faculty Senate, the Colleges Council, SA and GSA. Veteran’s course Kling and Weeks see the Colleges as special objects of attack in these times of retrenchment, partly due to their history of being founded for and by undergraduates. “It was a movement that got the Colleges,” said Kling. “and it’ll take a movement to save them.” Weeks that the members of Social Sciences have been unexpectedly successful this semester in setting up a Veteran’s course and in setting up counseling for Vietnam veterans. Kling added, “We’re about the only unit of the University offering a well-rounded program to help veterans deal with academic, emotional and economic problems.” The two Social Science College faculty also commended SUMY Chancellor Ernest Boyer for his strong anti-cutback stance, and said that Ketter should take a similarly strong stand when faced with suggested cutbacks. Food Service is hit by wide spread lap-offs and Vending Services. One out of three students who were on board last semester chose A freeze on transfer student to go off this semester, he acceptances, and a drop in Food explained. Although this figure is Service contract renewals, has in line with the standard attrition resulted in widespread layoffs of rate of previous years, it was not personnel. A offset by the mid-year influx of Food Service number of full time employees, transfer students who go on and 25-30 part-time student board.

Assistant Director of Food implemented as a last resort. by Rob Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer S.S.S. I 1 v Vrff /. Invites You to Hear Dr. Alexander Tiemkin Bozek said. All employees have had hours cut. Seniority, the basis for deciding who stays and who goes, inherently favors full time and consequently workers, student employees suffered most from the staff cuts. “Compares favorably” Food Service came under attack last semester over student firings and alleged unsanitary conditions. Commenting on these “improprieties,” Bozek contended that there was only one isolated case where a student worker was fired unfairly, and this situation with the was soon student’s reinstatement. Many students have also asserted that Food Service charges exhorbitant rates for low quality, poorly prepared meals. Bozek denied these charges, insisting that his organization provides only high quality food at prices that compare favorably with other State University board plans, some of which are mandatory. He indicated that schools which operate mandatory plans have substantially more money to work with and therefore can charge less for the same amount of food. There is a larger missed meal factor at these schools, ranging up to 20 percent at Albany. Food Service here, in comparison, works with a missed meal factor of 2.5 percent. Citing evidence of how a board here as compared contract favorably with other SUNY indicated that schools, he Albany’s 20 meal a week plan costs $365/semester, while at — $350. Bozek opposes the imposition of a mandatory board plan at this University, reasoning that it is unfair to force institutionalized food on students who don’t want to eat it.

Wednesday, 4 February 1976 TTie Spectrum Page five . . �mim Guest Opinion \ by Michele Smith Student Association President Two years ago, as National Affairs coordinator of the Student Association (SA), I became aware of the “commuter” problem at this University*. 1 met with, spoke to, and surveyed many commuters. Their common “nothing to do on campus that we complaint “The like.” movies are terrible.” “What the hell do I get for my $67.00?” Of course, these are just generalizations. But they reflect a common attitude among most of the students 1 surveyed. As a result of this growing awareness, I started the Commuter Council. Later, our SA Constitution was amended to include a Coordinator for Commuter Affairs. All of this was done to provide Buffalo residents with a forum for advocating their priorities. One area that the Council reacted to strongly was UUAB activities. Many members felt that UUAB’s offerings were not reflective of commuter interests. Student Association urged commuters on the Council to join the UUAB committees and try to make changes. No one expected to “take over” the odmmittees, although all expected the commuter input to result in offerings that would attract more students." Bob Wallace, Commuter Affairs Coordinator, also wanted to begin an afternoon film series for commuters. Things did not work out as planned. The Film Committee met irregularly throughout the summer and meeting times were not publicized. In fact, notification for meetings was only given at the previous meeting. If you missed one meeting, you were out of luck. Apparently, most of the people on the committee were friends, so they kept in touch with one another. However, people like Bob Wallace and Arthur Lalonde were not kept informed, and they continually felt that they were not welcome. - The Duds To the Editor. I had a horrible dream Friday night. It seemed like it took place in my old high school gym, except that this gym was a little more run down. There I in the bleachers doing my sitting was, “Hunchback-of-Notre-Oame” imitation, when all of a sudden my ears were assaulted with all kinds of inexcusable noise. 1 looked up at the stage, where a good act had once been, and lo and behold, there was a group of men actually making the noise and getting paid for it! On stage, there was not one, but two robots;, each behind a set of drums, playing with mechanical motions. Someone must have forgotten to push their selection switch; for they both played the same beat in every “tong.” In front of the robots there were, not one, not two, not three, but FOUR guitarists (Lynyrd, eat your heart out), all of whom combined could not have equaled the talent of Dino, Desi and Billy. The song contents were so basic and simplistic, that even Bachmaniv-Tumer Overdrive would have laughed. The only way I knew the songs had ended was when they stopped playing. But when they started playing, again, it seemed like the band was still stuck on the Sam* song. But something even stranger occurred. There was one of the men, standing behind a mike, singing, with nothing coming out of his mouth! By the beginning of the third song, the P.A. man finally awoke and plugged the mike in. Too bad! They should have qtiit while they were ahead. Come to think of it< his singing wasn’t the worst I ever heard I once had a pet guinea pig who liked to moan at night Then if happened! Like all good rock singers arc supposed to do,.h|e yelled. In the words of Chris Ruth, “It sounded like they had his balls in a vise." All in all, last Friday night was degrading and a total insult to my musical intelligence. Chris Rush, alone, was wortlf. the; S1.50. To top things off, the first two hundfftd “lucky” people received a free copy of the Dudes’ new hot AM selling single. I can honestly say I brought the record home and gave it a No folks, they don’t make good frisbees. chance It must be the hole in the middle. This was definitely a third class act that should never have gotten farther than the back up band for the Bay City Rollers. To people not accustomed to rock, this was by no means rock, let alone music at , The decision-making process on the Film Committee was also unfair. Each member of the committee drafted a list of movies he or she wanted to air and a master list was compiled. From that master list the committee formed the final list of weekend films. The new representatives on the committee were almost always voted down. In fact, the final list was never approved by the committee'as a whole; it was “approved” solely by Dennis Fox (and perhaps one or two others). So we were not even aware that a final decision was made on films , until much later. ■ ,,. ... ' ■ Two things must be cleared up about the SA all. position: first we are not against foreign or “art” films. There is a definite need for UUAB to Four Irate A Stinging Ears, Denis Caron provide alternatives to commercial theater. What we are arguing, however, is that the balance be changed. Presently, the weekend film ratio is about 60:40 “art” to “popular” (weekends only). That is based on a purely subjective, personal definition of what is a “popular” film. If you disagree with my definition, do your own Phil Ellman The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. Wednesday, 4 February 1976 52 Editor-m-Chief Amy 0 unkin - — — — — .Bill Maraschiello .. .

Hidden retrenchment To the Editor Managing Editor Richard Korman Managing Editor Howard Greenblatt Advertising Manager Gerry Me Keen Busman Manager Howard Koenig analysis. Whatever the exact outcome, it is clear that lesser known films predominate over “known” films. Our aim? To strike a new balance favoring popular films slightly more. The “infamous eight” films were chosen in the following manner; Arthur and I went through the weekend films noting that every weekend there were two UUAB films. “Why not let there be one popular film and one art film?” If there are two popular films, let that stand because of weekends taken up by the film festivals. Of course it was only a rough guide. But it had only one aim to provide alternatives every weekend possible. On eight weekends that alternative did not exist. So we agreed that one film per each of these weekends should be changed. The second misconception is that Student Association favored institution of more popular films simply because we had profit-making motives. Look at it another way: you pay $67 don’t you want to get the most for your money? UUAB films are subsidized with thousands of dollars of your fees. The more people that attend the movies, the more people that will be getting something for their $67. From the consumer’s standpoint, we should want to fill those theaters as much as possible. It is therefore from the of the consumer, not the perspective we attacked the problem. We that entrepeneur, wanted students to get the most for their money, not rip them off. Student Association made many mistakes in the aggressive and belligerent way it made its demands but I believe that occurred because of the unreceptive and hostile attitude displayed by Mr. Fox and others in UUAB. Bob Wallace received little, if any, cooperation from Mr. Fox in establishing the afternoon movie series. The Rim Committee was in no way open to new ideas. It is clear that UUAB films are run by a “clique.” I can say this because we deliberately sent in people to break that “clique” and they were unsuccessful. I do understand Mr. Fox’s position: he was trying to do his job and he felt threatened by our demands for change. Nonetheless, I still believe that Mr. Fox was and is wrong in his actions. I believe that he was insensitive to changing student opinion about films, and for these reasons the Board has reopened his position. This holy war between “art” and “government” must end. It is uncalled for and has been blown out of proportion. I share some of the angry feelings of others in Student Association who feel that our position was not represented in The Spectrum. But I do not feel that hostility is appropriate or necessary. We must try to solve problems not further them. The eight films have been reinstated as a concession. A committee has been formed to define some guidelines, structures, and policies for UUAB. A survey of student interests is being planned. I would like to hear your ideas, especially if you agree with our concept of a new “balance” in UUAB. On behalf of several non-tenured faculty in the Faculty of Educational Studies I would like to thank you for publishing Paul Krehbiel’s piece on the recent tactics used by Dr. Walter Petty to frighten junior academic employees. As the result of the way in which he irresponsibly spreads rumors, one department chairman, in Social Foundations, departmental advised all strongly assistant professors, including one who was unanimously supported for promotion, to find employment elsewhere. While we do not contend that Dr. Petty’s actions are purposefully malicious, they have been careless and have frightened a number of very productive individuals. The intellectual climate has suffered greatly, Mr. Krehbiel left, one important point out of his article. In his “confidential memo” .On** Petty suggested that he would use non-renewal as a means of retrenchment. Under this procedure any faculty .. . member, regardless of the time he has been at this University or his importance to his department, would be fired simply because his contract is up for routine renewal. It is my understanding that this is not the policy of Dr. Ketter. Retrenchment has to do with positions, not people. I would also like to add that as the result of Dr. Petty’s action and his continual references to the inevitability of retrenchment within the Faculty of Educational Studies, many really productive young faculty are actively seeking employment elsewhere. Since many of us are committed to our students and to the University, this is most tragic. It has had a most depressing and disrupting effect on our personal and professional lives. . I regret that, 1 have not given you permission to use my name. In the current climate that would be unwise. We do hope that all faculty and students will do what they can .|o. resist retrenchment and the insidious process of “hidden retrenchment.'’ .. Name withheld upon request �Broken dreams . '.vw To the Editor: It is with great pain inside that I write this letter. A friend of mine is dying inside because he has lost a dream. After four years of putting up with hard-ass instructors and competitive examinations, he has to throw in the towel. He can’t get into medical school. My friend is having a nervous breakdown because the A.M.A. has been successful in keeping medical school classes small, because only the rich can aford to go to medical schools in mahy areas, and because the federal government would rather send money to North Vietnam than to American medical schools. This country complains it hasn’t got enough doctors but only one out of three highly qualified applicants in this country gets accepted. Pre-medical education is not a normal type of education. It’s a combination of stress testing, army basic training, and S.S. nerve torture similar to that used in W.W. II. The program is designed to lose about 60 percent of the people that have busted their asses for four years just to get a chance at t ’ ■' i * S'V;y | For ** r W- * medical school. These are not people with 4.0’s. These are people with 3.5 or better. These people made a commitment four years ago only to be turned away after those four years. Many of these people wind up cynical and disillusioned. I am pre-med and have been “lucky’’.enough to have been accepted. I am writing this letter to those of you that are in pre-med now or are contemplating it. If you are in it because you want to spend your life in the care of human life, then stay in it and be prepared tq put up with indifferent and sometimes spiteful professors who’ll tell you how much they dislike pre-meds, and all the others who will tell you how much money you’ll make. If, on the other hand, you’re in it for the money, the glory, the little black bag, or the nice sounding title, do yourself and the rest of us a favor, get your ass out. After four years of pre-med I have become cynical, disillusioned, and cold to many feelings. I can no longer remain silent. A friend of mine is dying and with him so does a part of me.

In a year of increased terrorism in all corners of the world, it if-comforting to know that community has not been forgotten. I the question whether we must Be witness and hostage to one more demand, or one more threat. To Mr. Lalonde, I ask: With all that has been happening to students here, the knuckling under of the administration to outside economic interests, crippling the Record Co-op and the student pharmacy, and the removal of student control in the spending of mandatory fee monies by Ketter, you manage to waste your time and therefore, the students’ time, by haggling over what you consider to be eight non-popular films. What methods have you employed in your determination of what is “popular?” Trying to determine what is popular is like trying to give a definitive meaning to the word “nice.” Would you have us believe that because the title of a film is not on everyone’s lips, it is not worthwhile and therefore not to be shown? With all the various movies shown throughout the week on this campus, I applaud the efforts of the Film Committee in bringing new and innovative films to this community. As has already been stated, some “non-popular” films have grossed more than your “popular films.” It then becomes a question of which is the popular film. I have waited on long Hner to see what you would label a non-popular fihw•.«» I suggest that there are far mote important issues at this university which deserve the attention of the “student representatives.” The bus sendee - between the campuses stinks, students have lost control over their own mandatory fees, and organizations which serve the students seem to be falling by the wayside, due to the wishes of Hayes Hall. Mr. Lalonde, it is hard to believe that you are serving the interests of the students in this foolish escapade? GET ON THE STICK! 1 want to ask Dave Benders what it feels like to be a kidnapper or even a terrorist, because that is what he is. I want to know how in the hell he Is justified in using my mandatory student fees as hostage to gain the reinstatement of Mr. Fox. I agree with him that Mr. Fox should be reinstated, but his methods are crude and injurious to the student population. I am tired of the students being “screwed” as the “meglomaniacs” play “po>ver politics” in the upper reaches of Norton Hall. Am I to understand that if Sub Board had not acquiesced to his demands that the students of this university would have suffered? If that be so, then you have sunk to the level of organizations like die FLO: congratulations Dave Benders, terrorist. I cannot understand why these two bodies (supposedly serving the students), cannot come to some agreement as to their respective duties and obligations. There is no reason why this situation has to turn into a Hatfield-McCoy feud. After witnessing this deplorable'display I begin to realize what Causes student apathy.

During the last five years, the State University at Buffalo, which has prided itself on its so-called progress!vism in education, has in reality been slowly sinking into the mire of repressive education for the hell of it. The latest move made by the Faculty Senate Educational.Planning and Policy Committee recommending a mandatory writing course for incoming freshmen is the most drastic step yet. The University, under the direction of the Ketter travesty, has time and time again failed to respond to the needs and desires of the students for more inspirational education and freer, a - — environment. The issue, in reality, is whether or not a student in the State University has the right to choose to be educated the way he or she sees fit. This University has created the image of a free, progressive institution in the past by the removal of University requirements and the creation of The Colleges. Now, under the guise of bettering educational standards, slowly but surely the Administration is attempting to reduce the student to a mere commodity. The problem with mandatory composition courses is that, as always, the students are denied the choice of what is best for them. One wonders where the concept of progressive education has gone in this University. When a return to required courses is immediately supported by pseudo-liberal student institutions such as The Spectrum, it becomes apparent that academic freedom is quickly ceasing to exist. We wonder if perhaps, given the state of this University, it might not be more to the student’s benefit to mandate a course in the sanctity of individual rights, but only for people aspiring to be newspaper editors. It is almost unbelievable ■ that this project has been met with such rapid approval without even the technical formality of a search for a rational, progressive alternative to the {Jroblem. We would like to know how The Spectrum can really believe that this is the answer without even trying to arrive at some other course of action, let atone a compromise plan? Why does this course designed to “enrich all of us” have to be mandatory? -Why is there no alternative for the students who can successfully construct the English language?? While any alternative solution constitutes a blockade placed on student rights, there are many alternatives that will not only help alleviate the problem, but will also put a cost ceiling on this new program. Instead of hiring people trained in each of the departments to teach theSe required courses, why can’t the University dip irtto its own resources? There are students, seniors in the English Department, who we’re sure would be willing, for credit, to conduct writing workshops on a voluntary basis for all freshmen who cbods£ to take it? The Faculty Senate Committee doubts about the use of graduate assistants, wttti they justifiably feel are “the most exploitable" members of each department. The idea that escapes the committee is that there are seniors in almost every department who are working on teaching certification. Couldn’t this be used as “on the job training” for perspective teachers? This University is not the easiest place for an individual to survive. The administration, with a little help from its friends, is succeeding at making it harder than it was ever meant to be. Gary Waldman Elliot A brams Joel Auerhach Steve Milligram Class of pawns To the Editor. The manner in which Dr. Eric Beth was ousted from Physics is disgraceful. Dr. Beth is a man with feelings. I believe that he was honestly concerned about the students and their needs. The class, on the other hand, should not be used to accomplish the Physics Department’s ends. To fire a professor by soliciting enough complaints from our class, to justify his dismissal, is wrong. I am here to get an education, not to be used as a pawn. Since our class has hot received an official explanation as to what has transpired, I do not have both sides of the story. An explanation on the part of the Physics Department would be greatly 'v appreciated'.

Trapper came back to lead Buffalo’s offense with her blocks and steals but with a total of 30 turnovers, and a .300 shooting percentage, Buffalo was easily defeated by the Bombers, 56-44. Buffalo played like a different team the next day against Cornell. Regina Frazier’s long comer shots and hustling defense sparked Buffalo. Frazier, who used to play an inside game, proved that she’s just as good away from the basket, as she poured in 18 points, most of them from the outside. Trapper continued her excellent play this season with a 21 point and 20 rebound contribution. “We played well about three quarters of the game,” stated Thomas, “but we have to work on discipline and consistency.” The lack of consistency leaves Thomas confused about what division to select for the state tournament. Both Ithaca and Cornell are Division I teams, and Thorites had hoped to make her decision after playing them. But now she is even more confused. “I’ll just have to put off making the decision a little longer,” she said. by Joy Clark J J MrtlStfir DOriUt. — ' J JlJ J KA j - Jj .........11 Mermaids drown The Women’s swimming team, facing a strong Ithaca squad, lost Friday by a score of 75-30. Buffalo’s all-purpose swimmers. Mary Drozda (200 medley relay, 100 individual medley, 100 and 100 and butterfly, breast) Sandy Yakoto (200 medley relay, 50 freestyle, 100 freestyle, and 200 freestyle relay) placed four times each, making first places in the relays not enough for a Buffalon win. The closest race of the meet, the 50 yard backstroke, was nosed out by Buffalo’s star backstroker Liz Reposky with a time of 31.7. Reposky also came in first in the 100 backstroke. new brew in town, Kodiak Cream Ale. Kodiak isn’t just another cream ale. Kodiak is the cream of the cream ales because of a unique creamy taste that really sets it apart from the crowd. And because it has an extra smoothness that can only come from the finest mountain hops. We even use a special, costly brewing process that gives it a beautiful body all its own. Page eight. The Spectrum Wednesday, . 4 February 1976 All in all, Kodiak is enough to make a beer drinker give up beer. Or a cream ale lover switch brands. And now, by popular demand, you can have a Kodiak at home, as well as on draft. So pick up a six of Kodiak today. Kodiak Cream Ale, the cream of the cream ales. Another fine brew from C. Schmidt and Sons. Reposky won the 50 yard backstroke again the next day against Cornell, but failed to come in first in the 100 backstrokj for the first .time all season. Buffalo’s diver, Andrea Phalen, came in third in both the required and optional diving, although she was competing against three Cornell divers. Yakoto and Faith Malecki teamed for a one-two showing in the 100 freestyle, but Buffalo swam poorly in the dismal dunking by Cornell, 85-46. �Hockey team Bulldozes the Bombers of Ithaca College 4 Forrest Last week, the hockey Bulls split two home games. On Wednesday they dropped a 6-5 overtime heartbreaker to Union, and on Saturday they bombed Ithaca 9-4. But in both games. Bulls' goaltender John Moore was the major factor on the plus side for Buffalo. In the losing effort against Union, Moore turned aside 39 shots, and kept the Bulls alive after penalties and injuries had left Buffalo with nary three defensemen. His steady play against Ithaca resulted in 29 saves, many of which came in the early going before Buffalo broke the game open. Goalie John Moore is The Spectrum's Athlete of the Week CIA forum Graduate Student Union (GSA) and Speakers Bureau will present “A Forum On the CIA” tonight at 8 p.m. in the Fillmore Room.

The game marked one ot the few times this season that the Bulls didn’t fall apart in the final period of the game, but actually controlled play outscoring the Bombers 3—1 in the closing frame. For much of this season, the Bulls had been running into third period difficulty, where they would take some foolish penalties, and subsequently blow leads and snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. Bulls last long This game differed in that although the Bulls spent a great deal of time in the sin bin, only once in the third period were the Bombers able to hit the Buffalo net, when Charley Joynt skated around a stickless Mike Caruana, and drilled one through goalie Johnny Moore’s legs. Moore, though, was the story in the game’s closing twenty minutes when he set up a fortress in front of the Bulls’ net, shutting down the Ithaca offense during their three power play opportunities. After making two stick stops on the right side, and shunting a partial breakaway, Moore made the save of the night when he smothered a 15 foot slapper in this midsection, toppling over in the crease, hanging on to the puck. Moore’s stellar goaltending exhibition was followed immediately by a Fred Sutton goal, and the Bulls took command of the period. Short handed too often “I don’t think it’s so much that we let down or collapse, it’s that we get stupid penalties,” said Moore of the team’s usual third period woes. “It hurts to play with four guys because it throws off the lines. But I don’t really think we collapse.” Coach Wright, who felt that his team played better hockey in the 6-5 overtime loss to Union a week ago, was also a little disgruntled about foolish penalties in the game’s latter stages. “I'm not happy with the number of penalties we look. They (Buffalo skaters) are aware of our third period problems. We Turning the trick The Bulls’ big offensive punch was provided by left wing lack Kaminska, who bagged a three-goal hat trick, bringing his season scoring total to 17. After scoring a goal in each of the first two periods, it appeared that Kaminska would be thwarted in his quest for the trick, as time and time again he was foiled by Bomber goaltender Jack Mouradian. But the hard skating forward got his third goal with just 46 seconds remaining, when he poked the rebound of a Toughie Gruarin shot past Mouradian’s left side. The assist by Gruarin was his second of the game, and coupled with his two goals, gave him a four point night. He had scored twice in the middle stanza, as the Bombers defense let him walk in alone on Mouradian, and Toughie hit the mark in both instances. The victory leaves the Bulls with an 8-4-1 Division II record, and further enhances their playoff opportunities “We don’t really feel that losing to Union hurt us,” said Moore. “It was a good game, and if we win the rest, we’ll make the playoffs.” Brockport tonight The Bulls get their next crack at Division II competition tonight, when they play host to Brockport State at the Sports Center. When the two squads met last November, the Bulls hung on to win 6-5, despite four tallies by Brockport in the final period. “It was a very tough game up there,” said Wright of the previous meeting. “If we play and skate the way we can we’ll get a positive result. We’re not going to win by just putting on the jerseys.” Goalie Moore also remembers the last game, but remains optimistic about tonight’s battle. “It was a little tough up there. They’re a chippy team, but they shouldn’t be too much of a problem,” said the Bulls netminder. “AIC and Oswego should be tougher, but we’re playing one game at a time.” The match with Brockport is the team’s last home game of the year. After a match at AIC, the Bulls travel to Oswego, Western Michigan, and Bowling Green for a pair of games with each opponent. r NIAGARA FALLS I | TWIN — BLVD.

In essence, the letter and agreement to follow would have reduced Sub Board’s role in the pharmacy to that of an underwriter while turning over control of the pharmacy and its inventory (drugs) to the University. The extent of the control, as one University administrator has explained, would be so great that if federal restrictions prohibiting advertisement of drug prices were lifted, and the administration decided not to advertise, the pharmacy would have to abide by that decision. School of Pharmacy administrators made it clear at terms Managing Editor The Sub Board directors voted unanimously Thursday night to formally complain to the SUNY Chancellor and Board of Trustees if President Robert Ketter does not release funds to pay the bills of the student pharmacy in Michael Hall. The directors also voted unanimously in the closed door session to reject Ketter’s terms for handing over the pharmacy license to the University. Ketter cut off funds for the pharmacy's operation without notice in late November, and only revealed through a spokesman January 14 his demand that the license be transferred to the University. The pharmacy is expected to close in a week if no accord is reached. It owes about $5000 to drug companies. Sub Board officials repeated their charge that Ketter was stalling as the pharmacy's financial condition worsened. No explanation They also repeated their complaint that so far, Ketter has sent Sub Board no formal statement explaining his actions and has turned down requests for meetings.

Blackout of UU AB actitivities averted by Howard Greenblatt Managing Editor A proposed blackout of all University Union Activities Board (UUAB) activities was averted Thursday evening at an emergency meeting of the Sub Board Board of Directors.

The Coop is on probation until the last day of February when Ketter will decide whether it will remain open, Insana said. The Coop opened this semester under restrictions set by Ketter, which included a yearly limitation of $120,000 or $10,000 a month. This $60,000. Another limitation this semester is that absolutely no advertising is allowed, Insana said. The Coop now has a Treasurer, Steven appointed by Insana, two Student Association representatives, and two members of the Accounting Club.

Grenadier, UUAB compiled a list of three “demands” to Sub Board in connection with its protest move. The demands were; reinstatement of Fox as Chairman; complete approval of the Film Committee’s original weekend film schedule; and agreement upon a charter or contract specifying the exact degree to which UUAB is accountable to Sub Board. Advertisement pulled To publicize its reasoning for delete the six films. The six films are Zazie dans le Metro, Little Theatre of Jean Renoir, Les Violons Du Bal, Tales of Taira Clan, Every Man for Himself and God Against AII and Xala. Bitter wording The motion to reinstate the films, proposed by Student Association (SA) Executive Vice President Art Lalonde, was bitterly worded, according to one —continued on page 2 — �I 21 schools may close Buffalo busing plan formed by Education Commissioner State Education Commissioner Ewald B. Nyquist has formulated a plan which could mandate the closing of 20 elementary schools and one public high school in the city of Buffalo. The plan would be aimed at achieving racial balance in the Buffalo school system, and would probably involve the reassignment of between 15,000 and 20,000 students. It would divide the city into five school districts: Fillmore, Triangle, McKinley, Erie and Canal. Through a mass rezoning, certain schools would handle students from kindergarten through fourth grade, and others would contain grades five through eight. All kindergarten students would still continue to attend the schools closest to their homes. The reassignment of students to schools as far as six miles from their homes would probably require the establishment of a large-scale busing program. Under the Nyquist plan, each of the five school districts would contain an equal number of white and minority students. Schools to be closed are supposedly being chosen on- the basis of building age, capacity and proximity to other schools in the district. Forced integration has long been a touch subject in Buffalo, and was one of the issues which brought Country Comptroller Alfreda Slominski to prominence in the city. The debate over the best way to achieve integration also led, in part, to the creation of the elected School Board, as concerned parents sought to make the Board directly responsible to them. . In the meantime, Nyquist has been handing down busing plans to localities in New York State which seem unwilling or unable to formulate their own integration plans, such as Newburgh and Mount Vernon. Now, it appears that Nyquist is not satisfied with the progress of the Buffalo School Board’s efforts tp integrate city schools. Save their programs Education officials in Buffalo hope to negotiate with the state in preliminary integration plan is considerable monies coul order to preserve several programs said to include the closing of a saved by the closing of the which already exist.

Board member Abdul Wahaab had earlier moved to terminate Fox, but the motion was not seconded. Fox ‘unresponsive’ “I felt a significant number of board members felt that the action they took was too harsh, and that there was perhaps hot enough communications among the members in reaching the decision [to fire Fox and ban the films],” Jackalone told The Spectrum Friday.

In explaining the decision to direct the Personnel and Appointments Committee to search for a new Film Committee Chairman, which he admits amounts to a de facto vote of no-confidence in Fox, Jackalone said that the reinstated chairman has been “especially unresponsive to the attitudes and assements” of Sub Board. “We are therefore reopening the post,” he said. Sub Board Chairman James Smalley reaffirmed the standing —Forrast policy that the Personnel and Students line up Friday night to see the UUAB feature film Electra Appointments Committee’s final Glide in Blue, one of the eight movies cancelled and then later decision must be approved by the reinstated by the Sub Board Board of Directors last week. entire Board of Directors.

The GSEU, which is seeking to organize Teaching and Graduate Assistants (CTA’s and GA’s), is addressing itself to increasing cutbacks, decreasing wages due to inflation, and increasing workloads without just compensation. GSEU spokespersons point out that while TA’s and GA’s contribute significantly to the teaching and research responsibilities of the University, their working conditions continue to deteriorate as New York State makes cuts in education funding. Members see unionization as a means for better working conditions, leading to better learning conditions for those who benefit from teaching and research efforts. Monday's rally will set off a petition campaign to seek the support of TAs and GAs, and undergraduates, faculty and University staff. Later in February, another rally will be held to mark the end of the petition campaign and the presentation of demands to the administration. At a mass meeting to take place March I, GSEU plans to formally accept the administration’sresponse and consider action in view of that response. by Carrie Valient Spectrum Staff Writer New uniform guidelines for Faculty Student Associations (FSA) approved by the SUNY Board of on all state campuses Trustees, could increase student representation on many of the local boards. v The FSA is the corporation that controls Food Service, the Bookstores, Vending and other related services at SUNY schools. The guidelines, which affect both general membership and membership of the local FSA Boards of Directors, provide for a SUNY>wide electoral procedure. Previously, each individual FSA had its own system. The Trustees call for the FSA Boards to be composed of no less than 33 percent and no more than 50 percent students. This means that schools which presently have a majority of student directors on their Boards will be required to reduce the number, while those less than 33 percent minimum will gain more student control. More student input According to a Student Association of the State University (SASU) spokesperson, the wording of the new guidelines may aid in securing student input in FSA. General membership in the corporation will be amended to include all students, faculty and administrators on every SUNY campus. These people will, in turn, vote for the local Boards of Directors. Because students outnumber faculty and administrators, the SASU spokesperson predicted that the maximum 50 percent student representation will be reached on each local Board. The FSA Board of Directors at this University presently has the minimum one-third student representation required by the new guidelines. This level of student representation was achieved only less than a year ago. Prior to the change, student directors comprised only 20 percent of the Board membership. Flaws and corrections “Student interests would have been better protected had there been greater student representation in previous years,” stated Frank Jackalone, SASU Executive Committee member. Citing his frustrated efforts as Student Association. President to provide a “seconds policy” for students with board contracts, Jackalone stressed the difficulty in achieving positive results with insufficient student input. With the increase of student directors last year, however, Jackalone still feels it is “nearly impossible for students to thoroughly get involved in the [FSA] corporation to examine its flaws and to make corrections. The new guidelines will hopefully lead to more equitable student representation,” he said. Better operations On the statewide level, the overall gain in student directors when the guidelines go into effect met with favorable response. SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick commented, “Generally, our records indicate that FSA’s with high student memberships return their operating surpluses more directly to the student body in the form of beneficial services and operations than those controlled by faculty or administrators, who are less concerned with students’ needs.” WELCOME HOME S-l symposium Featured speakers offer differing perspectives on bill by Mike McGuire fight for the eight-hour work day at the turn of the Campus Editor century, which turned out to be the start of the Senate Bill I (S-l) is repressive legislation that must be stopped if civil liberties are to be preserved, according to several speakers who addressed more than 700 listeners in Norton Hall’s Fillmore Room last Thursday night. S-l is a revision of the federal criminal code, and has drawn fire from opponents for its provisions concerning the death penalty, wiretapping, official secrets, marijuana, sabotage, espionage, conspiracy and riot. Proponents defend the bill as a necessary revision of an overlong and redundant criminal code. The symposium featured four speakers who gave differing perspectives on the 'bill, which is now before the Senate Judiciary Committee. Nixon legacy Ester Herst. a Washington staffperson for the National Committee Against Repressive Legislation, gave a short history of the bill, labeling it a legacy of the Nixon administration. In 1971, she explained, a predominantly liberal commission, headed by former California Governor Pat Brown, handed down its proposals for unifying and updating the federal criminal code. The report was presented to a subcommittee of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which, ironically, was dominated by Senators McClellan (D-Arkansas) and Hruska (R-Nebraska), Herst said. They had been “conservative” members of the Brown Commission who were regularly outvoted, she added. According to' Ms. Herst, the two Senators rewrote the Brown Commission’s report in the subcommittee to suit their own predispositions. Hearings'on the bill were held during the height of the Senate Watergate proceedings, and media attention was thus diverted from the bill, she said, adding that McClelland and Hruska were frequently the only subcommittee members who attended the hearings. where the well educated drinkers meet.

Compare Our Prices. — HOURS: JX, illiards and Jukebox ’til 4 a.m. 3178 BAILEY AVE. -836-8905 Capri Theatre, cross from Art Cycles of repression At the same time, Herst explained, the Justice Department was working on its own version of the commission’s report, which became known as Senate Bill 1400 (S-l 400), and which was eventually joined with the Senators’ version and some additional provisions, to become the current S-l. Herst said only two days of hearings on S-l were held by the Senate subcommittee, partly because it was a combination of the two older bills, and that those two days were set up only because of complaints by liberal Democrats Edward Kennedy (D—Mass.) and Philip Hart (Mich.). George Conk, a staffperson of the National Lawyers Guild, linked S-l to a “history of repressive legislation,” which, Conk asserted, emerged in the United States at three other crucial times: during the American labor movement; after the First World War when organizers for the International Workers of the World were targets of repression along with aliens; and then throughout the Cold War period. Military approach Conk described a “new, cleaned-up tone” to repressive legislation. President Ford talks about “insuring domestic tranquility,” a phrase from the U.S. Constitution rather than “law and order,” which is associated more closely with the Nixon administration, he said. Conk fears that S-l is beinj treated by the federal government as a possible “model” for a unified system of state criminal codes. Conk feels that a sociological approach to law enforcment will be impossible if S-l becomes law, and that the bill’s proponents support a “surgical” approach to enforcement. Conk asserted that the $6.5 billion which will be the Law Enforcement Assistance spent by Administration (LEAA) over the next several years is an indication of the government’s paramilitary approach to crime, citing the LEAA’s “SWAT” (Special Weapons and Training) programs as an example. _ Hit minorities hard Laws like S-l are aimed largely against black youth, and therefore “we are ensuring a generation of unemployed blacks” if some provisions of S-l go into effect, he said. Dennis Serrette, of the Coalition of Black and Trade Unionists and Vice President of Local 1101 of the Communication Workers of America, echoed the same theme. S-l is disproportionately directed towards minorities and poor people, and is a piece of “fascist legislation,” he maintained. Jeff Seigel, of the Center for Constitutional Rights, said, “If you’re in a crowded theatre now and shout ‘Fire!’ you can be arrested. Under S-l, you could be arrested for shouting ‘Fire!’ in an empty theatre.” In committee Real opposition to the bill in its entirety has not yet started in the Senate, according to Herst, although some Senators have objected to specific sections, and Indiana Senator Birch Bayh removed his name from the list of sponsors. Herst characterized the Judiciary Committee as being made up of eight “conservatives” and seven “liberals,” although three of the 15 members may be “swing votes.” The symposium was sponsored by SA Speakers Bureau, the Graduate Student Association, the Buffalo Student Chapter of the National Lawyer’s Guild and the Distinguished Visitor’s Forum of the Student Bar Association.

Defend quality public education. — The myths conjured up about fraternities and sororities are not easily allayed. The weird initiation rites and somewhat grueling tests one must pass in order to join are still a great source of humor. Chi Omega, a national women’s fraternity, quickly disproves these myths. Founded at the University of Arkansas in 1895, it is rated one of the top organizations Of'its kind. Chi Omega has 159 chapters located throughout the country, but their national headquarters is in Cincinnati, Ohio. “It’s hard to be a woman in academic circles,” commented member Clare Reordan, “We’re a dynamic group of Avomen with an intense feeling of professionalism and a sense of pride and dedication,” she added. The purposes of Chi Omega are clearcut. They stress scholarship above anything else. “We’re college women ... primarily pursuing an education. We are intellectually interested in areas other than our majors. We want to know more about educated women and their place in our society,” another member explained Friendship is also accentuated. “We’re interested from a close association with our benefiting in difficult to experience on a campus which is peers, of this size,” a member noted. They claim that as an organization of friends, Chi Omega helps students expand their circle of friends. One of the major incentives for some members joining was the commuter problems they experienced, “Life for a commuter was little more than shuttling back and forth from campus to home,” another member said. Social activities are not the sole motivations for joining but, they are a more pleasant aspect of Chi Omega. The members of Chi Omega are very enthusiastic about their organization and claim that it has been an excellent reference for graduate schools and job applications. “Many of our alumna are still active, since membership is for life, and today when jobs are so scarce and every little push helps Chi Omega is invaluable. Many alumna are very influential in the business world and are more than happy to help another member.” Reordan explained.

Monday, 2 February 1976 A copy of a report by the House Select Committee on Intelligence last week said that 11 full-time officers of the Central Intelligence Agency were posing as journalists overseas in connection with their work. The report said further that until 1973, five agents posed as full-time correspondents with organizations that have “major general news impact.” Moreover, it stated that some 15 news organizations cooperated with the CIA in providing “cover” for CIA operatives. This report has caused widespread suspicion in the national press corps, and press officials are concerned that American readers, viewers and listeners will begin to believe that their news is colored by the CIA. William E. Colby, former director of the CIA, said that the CIA never intended to manipulate the news flowing to Americans. However, the organization did not feel there was anything wrong with hiring “stringers,” or part-time correspondents to sell their information to news organizations in this country, he added. journalist was a very good cover job for a spy. A journalist on assignment can generally ask questions and snap photographs without looking suspicious. If American journalists are thought to be spies a commonly held view of Soviet newsmen, then they are bound to face greater distrust and, in some countries, greater personal risk than normal. Speaking of these dangers, senior intelligence officers at the CIA have refused to make public the names of American news agencies which have “cooperated” with the CIA, or the names of newsmen who secretly worked for the CIA.

Dr. Agostinho Neto, leader of the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola (MPLA) was named President of the newly-created People s Republic of Angola, since recognized by 33 nations, including 16 African states. Yet, much confusion surrounds in Angola based on events - American press reports about domestic warfare and wide-spread foreign involvement. Government leaders, such as President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger, from the influence of small groups of powerful businessmen who produce primarily for private profit. This constitutes a major difference between the MPLA and the two splinter groups. FNLA ties Holden Roberto, head of the FNLA, receives support from Zaire President Mobutu Sese who is also his Seko, brother-in-law. The FNLA has been receiving aid from the CIA since 1962, and has gotten support from South Africa, Belgium, West Germany and France, Private corporations from these nations, as well as from the former colonial government of Portugal, the United States and others, have had important investments in Angolan resources for years. The People’s Republic of China has given aid to the FNLA and Zaire, raising questions about “socialist” China in its unholy alliance with the CIA, South Africa and multi-national corporations. UNITA was formed in 1966 under its current leader, Jonas Savimbi, and receives aid from South Africa, the United States, Britain and Zambia, and according to Time magazine, has been “backed by Portuguese business interests.” Savimbi, who favors Dr. Agostinho, President of the the participation of foreign capital People s Republic of Angola, and in Angola’s economy, formed a leader of the Popular Movement shaky alliance with the FNLA to for the Liberation of Angola declare themselves the real (MPLA). legitimate government.

Neither the press nor the U.S. government expressed much cohcern for the Angolans’ freedom when they were fighting against Portuguese colonialism. Some observers charge that the “freedom” in Angola so adamantly called for by the American press and government leaders is really the desire to see a government' in power that will allow multi-national corporations the “freedom” to continue taking raw materials out of this African nation Gulf Oil Company has invested S15CK million in Angola, and is" pumping 150,000 barrels of oil out of the Cabinda enclave per day.

The Senate also opposed sending such aid by a 54—22 vote in December. Yet, President Ford and Secretary of State Kissinger are already pressing There’s an old saying; Don’t wash your dirty laundry in public. It’s supposed to mean that if you’re in a group, you shouldn’t let outsiders know what goes on in the backrooms. But the saying itself somehow implies that you are embarrassed by dirty laundry, or by the .dirt itself, and certainly if you are inwardly embarrased by your dirty laundry, you won’t feel very confident in letting others see it. Some people think it is a sign of strength to effectively hide one’s dirt lately I see it as far more a sign of weakness. So I guess I’m here to expose some of College F’s dirty laundry. We usually keep it hanging all around our house on Winspear Avenue, but since we are once again being reviewed put on trial by the Ketter administration, I thought it would be better to let as many people as possible review us, and not just four or five strangers to us all. Besides which, I’m afraid that no matter what they find, the timefor places like our College is running out. Many of our critics and we have many say we don’t belong at this University (which may be all the more reason to keep us). I think we don’t belong herel Look at they’re right what we do and don’t do: We don’t give exams. We don’t sit in wooden or plastic chairs. In fact, our house has no classrooms, just moms with old couches and stuffy chairs. Our staff of teachers don’t look much different from the students, and often it is hard to tell during a class just who is getting paid to be there. Some of our teachers don’t get paid to be there they’re there cause they want to be. Most of our students aren’t there cause they have to be they want to be there, too. Many of the people in classes aren’t “students” or “teachers” they just Want to be there. We don’t flunk people. We read and study what we — Congress to reverse its decision. While the Ford Administration fumes over the ban and issues almost daily innuendos against the Popular Movement for the Liberation of Angola and the People's Republic of Angola the CIA continues to secretly funnel American tax-doliars into the civil war. To date, it is estimated that more than $50 million has been sent, along with American tanks, guns and ammunition, and reportedly, a special American mercenary force. According to Sean Gervasi, a consultant to the office of the United Nations Commissioner for Nambia, U.S. planes are already "flying missions over Angola" from Zaire for the purpose of "spotting troop movements and other targets." Gervasi further charges that U.S. Navy carriers have been stationed off the coast of Angola and are on "contingency orders" meaning that they are armed, have been assigned missions, and are waiting to be ordered into action. — — - - — , - One of these ships, the Independence, "carries 90 F-4 Phantom jets," and has been armed with "several hundred ,tons of napalm. Sidewinder missiles and anti-personnel fragmentation bombs," according to Gervasi. - — want, when we want, and we do a lot of that. A lot of our classes never end on time. Some of our classes end an hour after the “teacher” leaves. Some of our classes keep meeting after the semester ends, during “vacations.” Like I said we don’t belong here, which may be all the more reason to keep us. When our classes get too big, we don’t move to a bigger we divide in two, or lecture room and smile three. We study and respect an ethnic group others make jobkes about PolislKAmericans. Sometimes we hug each other when classes end. We study what it’s like to be you and me, not what the experts tell us we are. We study and practice anarchism in the stomach of a giant bureaucracy!! Yeah we don’t belong here, which is all the more reason to keep us. With our friends, students and critics, we maintain a community of about 300 people for less than the price of one professor. Ketter could leam to balance a budget from us! We don’t train people to be employed by IBM, Marine Midland or Coca-Cola. That’s a big reason we don’t belong. We don’t “train” people to belong. Damn, this is getting to be a contradictory exercise in airing dirty laundry. Everything seems so clean! It could be I’m so used to living in this sort of dirt that I’ve grown blind and foolish at such a young age!! I’m so mixed up I don’t know what to hide from Kctter’s committee and what to be proud of. Starting February 2, the review committee will be sitting in on College F classes, on our staff meetings (really eight friends), in our minds and hearts. Once again, we’ll have to walk the tightrope between being unique, so that we don’t duplicate the work of another University department, and not being too unique and different, cause then we don’t belong here. I want the review committee to say we what a DEFINITELY • don’t belong here which is all the more reason to compliment keep us. - - - — - — - Under the old and worn cover of anti-communism. Ford and Kissinger are seriously threatening to embroil our nation in another Vietnam-type war in Angola, against the majority of the Angolan people. With cut backs mounting in education, urban development, and most social services at home, the American people clearly do not need, nor do they want, to be involved in another war Stepping on toes To the Editor I was shocked to read of the actions of Sub Board regarding UUAB and the firing of Film Committee Chairman Dennis Fox.

On the issue of a Basic Writing Course, I feel since our University removed basic requirements, the quality of our education has been falling by the wayside. Our purpose in attending a University Center like ours is to obtain a well-rounded education, not a concentration in a given field or subject.

Governor Carey has decided to cut about tein million dollars from the 1976—1977 SUNY budget. One potential source of savings that could, at the same time, be beneficial to large numbers of Buffalo students and faculty has been unfortunately overlooked. Since personnel must be cut, let it be the most expensive, This modest proposal is simply to consolidate Buffalo State College and this University, eliminating excess administrative bureaucrates and staff while combining existing facilities. The benefits of such an act are obviously numerous to both students and faculty even without the inevitable tremendous monetary savings.

Previous issues of The Spectrum, an article which appeared in Newsweek “Why Johnny Can’t Read,” and an article in the Reporter, “Why Johnny Can’t Right,” expressed a general feeling that students are lacking in their reading and writing skills, So I feel that if these requirements are instituted, the students and faculty will both benefit. Danny Sweet Dylan, he is a’ changing To the Editor. In response to Amanda B. Reckonwith’s critique on Bob Dylan’s latest triumph — Desire, I would like to say a few words in support of this effort. Every Dylan album I have ever listened to is very different from the next. Free Wheelin', Bringing It All Back Home, John Wesley Harding and finally Desire, are all entitites in themselves. In some cases, even a true Dylan admirer will find that it takes time to get into the new sounds, causes and very new images portrayed by the Dylan of 1975. It took a good three months for me to realize that Blood on the Tracks is of comparable quality to such monumental classics as The Times They are a Changin or A nother Side of Bob Dylan. Amanda Reckonwith fails to understand that we are not in 1965. The times have changed and it is ’ nonsensical to demand that one’s “rap” remain exactly the same. That, by nature, would be contradictory to Dylan’s basic uniqueness. Desire may be a bit more straight forward than Blonde on Blonde but songs like “Joey” and “Isis” are worthy of greater attention and far more deserving of serious consideration that Miss , Reckonwith is willing to allow. But then again, how believable is Miss Reckonwith’s review when first she claims to be a long time advocate of Bob Dylan’s songwriting as well as defender of his musical talent, and then states that in the past, Dylan has had difficulty writing songs with confusing poetic images or rhyme schemes. Miss Reckonwith, get your act together before you refer to Bob Dylan’s tunes as “lame.” Lewis Abrams Uphill road to professional schools To the Editor Bob Rose’s article in the January 28 issue concerning what he termed “Pre-Med Syndrome” was interesting, and something that a lot of students could relate to. Mr. Rose clearly and accurately expressed the unfortunate circumstances facing many hard working students, and he also mentioned a grave problem that many people are not even aware of, the consequences of which are equally as unfortunate. But I do not feel that they are irreparable. What I am referring to is a point made very unnoticingly in the second to last paragraph of the article. It states that for the students who are not accepted to medical schools, there are alternatives, namely foreign medical schools, osteopathic, dental, optometry or podiatry schools. It is true that these can be considered alternatives in the sense that the qualifications are less rigid, but the problem is that these fields need people qualified and desiring to undertake professions very different from medicine, not the medical school refusals. The profession of dentistry is one example of a field becoming floundered by people who wanted to study medicine, and the two fields are vastly different! Dentistry requires a creative artistic skill not nearly as essential in medicine. The problem is that the incoming students are totally unaware of what’s ahead of them. Students who begin to realize that their index is not as high as needed, begin to consider these other fields and they will not be able to find out if they will enjoy them until they have become committed to them. Even worse, is that .these professions are taking in the wrong people, and this is leading to their own ruination. What is needed are courses of orientation for each field to help the student understand just what he’s getting into before it’s too late, much like the Pharmacy Department already has here. This would help to alleviate the strain of everyone trying to get to the same place, not only by possibly helping students, find out if they are interested in other field, but also that they may not be interested in medicine! What the professions need is personnel dedicated to what they’re doing. Frank Celenza Monday, 2 February 1976 The Spectrum .

Shots on Goal: Union 34; Buffalo 50 Goaltenders: Baxter (U) and Moore (B) Hockey Union Fairleigh Dickenson Bulls overwhelmed by tenacious defense by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor Last year, the basketball Bulls found out why Fairleigh Dickinson was one of the nation’s best defensive teams when the Knights’ full-court press overwhelmed Buffalo 81—57. Thursday night, the Bulls again ran into the New Jersey team’s unyielding defense and dropped a 59-49 decision. This time, however, there was no full-court press. “We don’t have the players we had last year,” said FDU coach A1 LoBalbo. Instead, they played a solid zone defense. “They played the best defense they’ve played all year, especially in the last ten minutes,” he said. It was during those last ten minutes that the Bulls could only score three baskets, capping off a half in which the Bulls managed-only 18 points. The Bulls had taken their first lead of the game, a modest two point edge, when they fell fait, and Fairleigh Dickinson put in 21 points to Buffalo’s six. Knights improve “In the second half, we had a great selection of shots. We ran the offense well,” noted LoBalbo. “With better shots, it forced us to play better defense. We tried to do things in the first half that we’re not capable of doing,” he continued, talking about why FDU only had a two point led at the end of 20 minutes. “But we played up to our capabilities in the second half.” It was exactly the opposite for Buffalo, who played nowhere near their capabilities. A very disappointed Buffalo coach Leo Richardson said, “Our minds weren’t with it tonight. I guess we just don’t have people who are winners. All we have are publicity seekers.” Richardson was upset because the Bulls continually forced their shots and passes. “We didn't take care of the ball. We rushed out shots. But the main thing that hurt us was# turnovers.” During the game’s concluding ten minutes when the Bulls almost had to get lucky to score, they turned the ball over five consecutive times, scored, and then committed four more turnovers before attempting another shot. Experience necessary The Bulls’ bench was no help, since as Richardson explained. "Against a team like Fairleigh Dickinson, you have to go with experienced players. Our subs can play against a team like Brockport [that plays racehorse basketball] but not against a disciplined team.” Richardson has been struggling with inconsistent play all year, without success. Last week, the Bulls played two extremely strong games but lost them both. This week, they played two poor games, and Richardson’s confidence in his players seems to have eroded sharply. "I’m so disgusted, I don’t know what I’m going to do,” he said.

Accepts position of NAIA by Paige Mfllcr Assistant Sports Editor The Dean of the School of Health Education and Director of Athletics, Harry Fritz, has accepted the position of Executive Secretary of the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA), headquartered in Kansas City. Kritz, whose appointment was announced December IS, plans to leave his job at Buffalo in mid-April. “I’m staying on for a smoother transition here,” he said. Fritz’s resignation brings up the problem of a successor. The Assistant Dean of the School of Health Education, Martin McIntyre, has accepted a job at Texas Tech University. Finding a successor from within the Athletic Department may be difficult since the only member of the department who has had administrative experience, Edwin Muto, has been in poor health, although he has resumed his duties recently. Finding a successor from outside may also be difficult, since many people would be reluctant to take over a program whose future is constantly in doubt. In any event, Fritz’s successor will be chosen by President Robert Ketter and Vice President for Health Sciences, Carter Pannill, Nevertheless, Fritz was optimistic about the future of athletics here. “The future is reasonably good,” he said. “Students have begun to appreciate the people in Health Sciences. We’ve got our faults, but they’re beginning to realize that we exist for the students.” When asked if he thought athletics would be eliminated completely, he replied, “I don’t see that happening.” Fritz reconsidered Fritz was first asked to be the head of the NAIA back in January, 1954. “1 did not have the time to pursue the candidacy then,” he said. Nevertheless, the NAIA didn’t forget about him, and when A.O. Duer, the organization’s head for the last 26 years retired in July, Fritz was recontacted and accepted. Fritz has not had time to formulate definite plans for his position with the NAIA, which is an organization similar to the NCAA. It encompasses nearly 600 four-year schools, most of low or moderate enrollment. The NAIA’s main policy, that For a guy like Liddy, it was a good move G. Gordon Liddy, one of the more (CPS) crazed characters to tumble out of the Watergate drama, has undergone somewhat of an ideological flipflop. It seems Liddy. once a county narc in upstate New York who was the first official to investigate Timothy Leary, is now aiding convicted drug users. Danny Wilkerson, or “Mr. Diamond D” as he likes to be called, got Liddy to help him prepare a motion that convinced a judge to drop his marijuana conviction. Kiddy was only returning a favor Mr. Diamond D taught him to play chess while the two were cellmates at Danbury Federal Prison. — — Yale faculty opts for failure Yalies may once again be flunkies, (CPS) thanks to a recent faculty vote that will restore “F” grades at the New Haven school. For four years Yale students have been able to slip by without an “F” blotting their records. But now, in a reaction against grade inflation, “F’s” will go back on student’s transcripts in an effort to increase the credibility of the permanent academic records. “The present situation has produced the absurd situation in which a failing grade is more desirable in the eyes ofmany students than a “D” or even a “C,” a faculty report said. But since so many Yale students have their eyes set on a graduate or professional school, fear of receiving a “C” or “D” has kept them from experimenting with different courses. — Harry Fritz athletics is an integral part of a student’s education, is one in which Fritz firmly believes, and he believes that the organization’s 32 regional tournaments in 16 sports are well worth continuing. NA1A in good shape Fritz, who will be aided by the NAIA’s executive board, feels that now is an excellent time to take over the NAIA, since the NCAA controls its members too heavily, and many schools want autonomy in athletics. He also wants to extend the NAIA’s services to its members. One likely way to do this is to increase even though the organization is in relatively good financial condition right now. Negotiating for a television contract for the highly prestigious NAIA basketball championships will be one of Fritz’s plans, as well as getting contributions from major league baseball and the National Hockey League for developmental programs. “I’m looking forward to the position,” he said. “In fact, I wish I was there now.” Buffalo’s loss will be NAIA’s gain. As a result of the experiment, the number of “A” grades at the school has risen by more than a third over the past four years. Last quarter, “A’s” accounted for 43% of all grades given. “The system is plainly dishonest,” says Yale history professor Donald Kagan. Students, however, do not agree. They have opposed the move to restore “Ps” Just as they have opposed the iniation next fall of the “W” grade for students who withdraw from courses after mid-term. The new changes mark the 13th time this century Yalehas revised its grading system. * Wringing the most from the phone company (CPS) One of the first stabs at charging telephone customers for directory assistance calls is off to a poor start in New York. The New York plan begun last year gives customers three free calls to directory assistance each month. After the third information request, each call costs a dime. If the customer doesn’t use up the allotted number of free calls, the balance is credited to his account. Although critics, charged that the phone company would be hauling in additional revenue after the directory charge plan was started, just the opposite happened. New York Telephone Company has taken in about 5780,000 from customers during October who made more than the allowed number of directory calls. But the company also gave away $2.1 million in credit -to customers who made fewer than three calls to their operator. — , �Skaters edged by UnionCollege team by Larry Amoros Spectrum Staff Writer When it was all over at the Tonawanda Sports Center last Thursday night. The Union College Dutchman had skated to a 6-5 overtime win over the Buffalo Bulls, four players had received game misconduct penalties and Buffalo defenseman Tony Scaringi lay in the hospital with a severe gash in his head and a mild concussion. It was the aftermath of the most exciting, spectacular ice hockey game the Bulls have been involved in this year. While the term “grudge match” may not actually have been appropriate the Bulls certainly were aware of the 11-1 drubbing they received at the hands of Union early last January. The Bulls wanted this game very badly, not only to atone for the earlier embarrassment with Union, but for their drive toward an ECAC Division II playoff berth. The feeling among the players was that if the Bulls could beat Union, then they would be afforded the luxury of a split against Oswego State on February 13 and 14. But this was not to be. first scoring chance of the game, though. Center Kip Churchill came in on a breakaway, but Buffalo netminder Johnny Moore held his ground, and forced Churchill’s shot to go awry. After a scoreless second period in which the Bulls outshot Union 13-10, it appeared that Buffalo would be able to maintain its 4-2 lead by carefully planned forechecking, and register its fifth straight victory over Division II competition. But a funny thing happened on the way to the victory celebration. The Bulls didn’t win. The Dutchmen scored three times in the final period to take a 5-4 lead, and only Toughie Gruarin’s deflection of a Mike Caruana slapper sent the game into overtime. Overtime too much for Bulls Hie extra frame ended in less than six minutes, when Union left wing Brad Hinterberger took a Grant Judd pass, and tipped it behind Moore. The play originated as Judd, flying down the right boards, rifled a pass just wide of Moore’s crease to Hinterberger, who was cutting in.

The resulting brawl wasn’t there.” Wright continued, “We gave away two or three goals. Easy things seem to come back and haunt us.” But what haunted the Bulls even more this evening was the altercation that sent top defenseman Tony Scaringi to Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital with a head injury and o t I c k h i a z monday, february 2nd at 8:OOpm norton hall, mn. 233 * topic “All the World Wants the Jews Dead?” S different things. From the press box, it appeared that Scaringi’s assessment of the situation was accurate, and that he did not kick concussion. that Tony Scaringi skated over and kicked Judd, although there is no proof to substantiate such a statement. Scaringi contends that he skated over to see how Judd was, and the Dutchman coach pushed him. When Harkness pushed him a second time, Scaringi fought back, and received Mario Giallonardo’s stick across his head for his efforts. Judd sees black With the score knotted at 4-4 in the third period, Buffalo right wing Bill Busch was skating the puck out of his own zone, when Grant Judd came streaking across the ice to hit Busch. But the rangy winger saw Judd coming, and avoided the check, causing the Union rookie to slam himself into the boards, falling unconscious to the ice. “I sidestepped him, he hit the boards,” said Busch. “He was out when he hit the ice.” What happened after that depends on who you talk to. Union coach Ned Harkness said Scaringi no sap “I was the only player from our side over there,” said Scaringi two days later. 1 wanted to see how he (Judd) was.

The referees saw things differently too as the Bulls wound up on the short end of the penalty calls, a matter which caused Wright to ponder the situation. “I don’t know how Tony got involved, but somebody pulls a two-hander, and they come out of it with an advantage. 1 don’t understand it.” Athletic department Drastic cuts may be coming There is suddenly a distinct possibility that the intercollegiate sports program at Buffalo may be drastically cut as a result of University-wide cutbacks. Reports indicate that $152,000 promised as payment for athletic coaches may be unavailable for the 1976-77 year. Such cutbacks would make funding of varsity sports in 1976-77 impossible at their present levels and probably not feasible at lower levels. Sources say that new cutbacks in the University budget are responsible for the possible cutbacks in athletic funding. present y n turned what had been an exciting game into a sickening debacle. Union eventually won the game 6-5 in overtime. was held out of the Health Sciences budget for 1976-77. These funds were intended for coaching positions, and when they were cut, the athletic department was promised that the positions involved would be taken care of “in some fashion,” according to Fogel. All monies in jeopardy Some of this money was allocated to pay for these positions, but over $110,000 is still needed to cover the full complement of coaches’ salaries. However, all $152,000 is now being re-evaluated in light of these most recent cutbacks. Revenue down Another report indicated that the new Charles M.

Planned for immediately after tonight’s Music Committee-sponsored concert, the blackout was decided upon last Tuesday for their own by UUAB members in responsibility “We don’t decisions. frhwdnHng support of Fine Arts Film tfdnk elected officials should be Committee Chairperson nuking those choices for us, or Dennis Fox. even reviewing those choices,” Threatened with Benders said. Graduate student James dismissal last week for his refusal to comply with a Sub Smalley, Chairman of Sub Board, admitted that he “personally could not see choosing a film,” but added that “the films are not for the Fox has scheduled ipring, become the center of a the question.” Smalley claimed nivobing a large that “spot checks” on employees controversy over the place” in —mber of student groups and are “done all the “real world” of large corporations, and that “Sub The dedans to cal a halt to Board has to be responsible to somebody Smalley feels that his one fro* unjustly Bond Friday, 30 January 1976 State Unhwnity of Now York at Buffalo VoL 26, No. SO directive to caocd ax - Wi£°*DMdra ” of have * by Ridiaid Korman Managing Editor A SUMY Task Force assigned to study student activity fees has concluded in its unreleased report that such fees may be used to fund “student organizations or corporations,” The Spectrum has learned. The report also recommends that activity fee money be permitted to fund activities involving "advocacy or expression or views or opinions providing that these funds are not used in support of an extra campus political committee, party or candidate.” — The Task Force was composed of six students and nine administrators from the SUNY Central Administration and representative state-operated campuses. These new provisions, generally seen as representing student interests, may be rejected by SUNY Chancellor Ernest Boyer or the SUNY Board of Trustees before the report recommendations are adopted as policy. According to informed sources in Albany, recommendations were passed by a dim majority within the Task Force, and therefore, will probably, be -questioned when the Trustees review the report sometime within the coming month. the presumably Existing guidelines governing the use of student activity fees do not specify that funds may be used for student corporations or activities involving expression of views or opinions. The guidelines only that fees be used for activities ox an “educational, recreational, cultural or social nature.'” require Director Dave Benders and Music Cormninee Chairperson Robbie after the Board formulated a list of three demands. Hus hst was presented So Sub Board’s Board of Directors at a meeting held last nirfit, after The Spectrum went to press. The ArmamM were: reinstatement of Fox in his position as chairperson; complete approval of the Fim Committee’s original weekend film schedule; and agreement upon a charter or contract specifying the exact degree to which UUAB is accountable to Sub Board. . Benders said this contract must allow program choices made by the various committees to stand without argument from Sub Board in order to be acceptable to UUAB. The committee heads approved initially by Sub Board must, also be allowed full UUAB chairpersons as well as by other Sub Board employee*, including University Press Division Director Linda Enke. In a letter dated January 22 and addressed to Smalley and Sub Board’s Vice Chairman Glenn Davis and Treasurer Brace Campbell, Enke stated that she had “always been under the impression that the UUAB Film Committee was committed to offering students an alternative to the CAC, IRC and local theatre films,” and that “Sub Board, if it wanted, could be proud of its contribution to alternative movie programming.” Pointing out that SA, for instance, “nearly always votes as a block” at Sub Board meetings, Enke suggested that there must be at least some dissenting opinions on any issue that comes before the Board, and complained that Sub Board is no longer “a responsive, open-minded forum for student interests.” The majority of her staffconcurred on these points, she added. Because the wording of the guidelines is vague, the Task Force sought to clarify them and determine the extent to which so-called political activities may be funded. Controveisy over interpretation of the guidelines have occurred regularly on individual campuses since the guidelines were first passed in 1970. At that time, local campus presidents were given review power over what was previously unsupervised spending of activity fee money by student governments. The Task Force Chairman, Buff State President EJC. Frctwell, Jr., circulated draft copies of the report in August, I97S, inviting comments from administrators, students and SUNY Central staff members. Several respondents expressed strong opposition to corporations. Chine objects Among the opposing statements was a letter from Thomas Craine, assistant to President Robert {Cette; (neither was listed as a Task Force member), concerned over language “sufficient to assure students full freedom in using funds essentially as they wish.” The proposed guidelines encourage students to establish corporate stuctures, allow funding for political advocacy, permit funds to be transferred to i£., they independent corporations, etc. immodestly provide the ability to launder' monies in neariy unlimited ways,” Craine wrote. Similarly, Russ Gugino, assistant to the SUNY — Vice Chancellor for Univenity Affairs, said the use of mandatory fees to suuport purely personal expressions of views by individuals or groups is a “blatant misuse of the fee,” and asked that such provisions be eliminated. Gugino is generally seen as a good index of the SUMY Chancellors point of view. controversial The future of the two recommendations could effect funding of the two statewide student corporations funded from activity fees, the Student Association of the State University (SASU) and the New York Public Interest Reserach Group (NYP1RG), the Albany source said, incorporation has become a trend in student organizations across the country, especially among income generating clubs and publications. At the State University at Buffalo, for example, Schussmeisters Ski Club and The Spectrum arc not-for-profit corporations. SASU and NYP1RG Although SASU and NYPIRG are equally eligible for funding, NYPIRG’s status is more precarious because of an increasing tendency among SUNY administrators to view the two groups differently, the source observed. SASU is seen as a group benefiting students “as where NYPIRG members function as students and private citizens; SASU exists exclusively within SUNY; NYPR1G has member schools outside the SUNY system. students,” the source added, At this University, clarification of fee guidelines by the SUNY Trustees is of particular concern because of the Ketter Administration’s recent questioning of organizations funded with student activity fees. In the past few months, the Ketter Administration has: —Reduced by one-half the volume of sales at the SA Record Coop following a complaint by Cavages Record Stores which said the Coop’s existence on a state operated campus posed “ruinous competition;” * -Cut off funds to operate the student pharmacy in Michael Hall until the pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the University; —Withheld approval of a one year contract between SA and NYPIRG, claiming the wording of the contract involving the services NYPIRG supplies to the student body is vauge; —Requested to begin reviewing expenditures of TheSpectrum. Debate over use of student activity fee money has often centered around the students’ freedom to use mandatory fee money as they see fit and the Univesrity’s responsibility to ensure that the fees are used in accordance with SUNY guidelines According to a source dose to the Task Force, the report recommendations involving corporations and advocacy groups are not likely to remain. The students on the Task Force apparently won a majority through the cooperation of one or two administrative representatives who voted with them. Fretweel also pointed out in a statement that a consensus was not reached, an indication of the disparity within the Task Force' and an invitation to the SUNY Chancellor and Trustees to strike down the amendments. �» * t "V f Increase of medical school grads sought The State Board of Regents has recommended an expansion in the number of medical school graduates to meet the increasing demand for physicians in New York State. The recommendations are based on the findings of a Medical School Enrollment and Physician Task Force. Presently there are 1500 medical school graduates a year in this state. The Board hopes to see 2000 a year by 1990,raising the number of doctors from 220 to 260 per 100,000 people. The Bgard also encourages medical students to take up less well-known specialities. Internal medicine, pediatrics, obstetrics and gynecology are all fields whose demand for practitioners will be steadily increasing in the next decade. Reordering expenses The Board also proposed that students pay a larger share of their medical and dental school costs, especially in public institutions. Highest priority, they said, should be directed at encouraging medical school upper-division places; and the state’s share of financing should be based on a reasonable portion, or about one-third of 1976-77 levels. Under this arrangement, students would absorb up to one third of their medical school expenses, with the remainder to be passed on to the federal government (now about 17 percent in the private schools and 15 percent in the public institutions) and institutional sources. The Regents recommended a state-financed program to support conversion of several community hospitals to teaching hospitals, in order to provide upper-division medical school places. The expansion of guaranteed loan limitations for medical school students from $2500 to $5000 a year, and an increase in the overall maximum from $10,000 J to $20,000 was also suggested.

Cutbacks will greatly affect junior faculty , * by Mike McGuire Campus Editor of Instructor” (P-I) Making “Permission requirements leSs arbitrary and easier to enforce is the aim of a proposal that will be considered by the Faculty Senate at its meeting this coming Tuesday. A committee proposal, drawn up by professors Dings (English), John Edward Massaro (Biochemistry), and Ann McElroy (Anthropology), would allow an instructor to require P-I for all students in a particular class, but would guarantee the right to quick appeal for any student who is denied permission. Students who are closed out of a course would be placed on a first come, first serve “priority list.” Later, as people drop the course, students on the list might be allowed to register. by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor - ■; . *-• The only way to protect everyone’s jobs, the faculty member continued* was for teachers to work for “collective action” through the faculty union, the United University Professions (UUP). “The UUP on this campus has just gone on record in its last membership meeting as being opposed to any retrenchment,” the faculty member explained. At that meeting, James Lawler, Professor of Philosophy, moved several proposals outlining the union’s position on the budget situation; all of which were passed. from program to program. In- Biology the the College of Urban Studies, and Women’s Studies College, more than 70 percent of offered courses require Permission of Instructor. At the other extreme were Tolstoy College (College F), Speech Communications, Philosophy, German, French and Anthropology, which did not require P-I, in any courses unless a student desired a waiver of stated prerequisites or wished to take independent study. In its report, the committee said that wherever possible, departments should substitute lists of prerequisites for P-I, and that P-i should only be used in “courses in which its Use can be justified.” “We recognize only two clear-cut reasons for a student from a course: excluding underqualification (lack of prerequisite knowledge or skills) and overqualification. All others we regard as. exceedingly problematical, hence as requiring acts of interpretation and judgement from an arbitrator,” the committee wrote. ...

The committee emphasized in the report that it was not making other proposals that were “plainly implied by the larger view we have taken.” For example, it did not attempt to eliminate courses restricted to departmental majors. “The principle we have arrived at,” said the committee, “is the principle of open education for all matriculated students at the University: equal access to all courses for all students who are competent to take them.” If passed by the Faculty Senate, the proposal would still require the approval of President Robert Ketter before it goes into effect.

The UUP will adopt as its number one priority in contract negotiations that “no retrenchment of the bargaining unit” will occur for the duration of the contract. UUP’s present contract ends this spring The UUP will push for “a job security provision” that requires “just cause” for a dismissal. A continuing appointment would be granted after an individual has demonstrated adequate fulfillment of his or her position. The union also plans to fight for compensation for the losses sustained because of inflation, along with a “full cost of living clause,” and an additional salary increase for each year of the contract. Also, priority will be given to “raising, lower salaries more rapidly” than higher salaries. Finally, the. UUP will “adamantly oppose cutbacks in higher education” in New York State, and will publicly campaign for the defense of quality, inexpensive education that does not place “added burdens on poor, working-class and modest income families.” *A« expulsion.” Present problems In discussing the concept of P-I, the committee identified current rationales for requiring an instructor’s permission to take a class, which the report said represent “certain problems” for students. Many departments, it said, restrict certain xourses to ihajors by using P-I; others use it to give preference to majors or seniors Who may need it to graduate. So'metimes P-I is used to assure that prerequisites have been completed or that equivalent experience has been gained. Additionally, P-1 is used in a minority of cases to include students who would contribute to the class because of particular the academic or socieconomic background, committee noted. United action needed A faculty member from Educational Studies said that the memo clearly indicates which group of teachers are “most disposable” in the eyes of University administrative officers. The teacher expressed strong disagreement with Petty’s approach to the budget situation, stating that' University workers should be talking about how to protect everyone’s job, rather than about who would be cut and who would | No appeal now The proposal also mandates that “all cases of appeal be settled by consideration of the strictly educational appropriateness of die instructor’s act of ' Undisclosed faculty sources indicated that junior faculty members would be the first to go in the Faculty of Educational Studies if budget cuts affect that academic unit. In a recently revealed confidential memo from Walter T. Petty, Actirig Provost of the Faculty of Educational Studies, department Chairmen and Directors were assured that senior faculty members would not be seriously affected. Petty explained that the budget situation remained “unclear,” but he was convinced that “we will be subjected to a considerable reduction.” If that does take place, cuts should be made so that “tenured faculty suffer no more than necessary he emphasized. SHAWN PHILLIPS P-I requirement, and to complete screening for the class by the end of the first week. Any student .who does not receive permission from the instructor at that time can be removed. If the student disagrees with his exclusion from the class, he can appeal to a special P-I arbitrator in the Dean of Undergraduate Education. The proposal states: “The instructor must respond with reasons when asked by the Dean’s office acting on an appeal. The appeal must be decided within a week 6f filing, preferably much’"sooner;” and ‘The decision of the Dean's office is final and binding.” Editor’s note: The following is the second in two articles on recent Faculty Senate reports.

The committee hopes that the survey will indicate how students feel their Mandatory Fees should be distributed. “We hope that students will have a big input in the distribution of mandatory fees and not decide to be apathetic,” stated Lynn Bittner, Chairman of the Financial Priorities Committee. “This way, we can represent the ideas of the student body when we present our findings to the Financial Assembly,” she added. The survey will be about three pages long and will cover eight categories of activies. “Last year’s survey questions were geared to determine student opinion on athletics. Bfttner explained.

Some reasons for this, according to Egan, are that the non-profit centers are funded and affiliated with Catholic Charities and local churches. The employees of these church-affiliated centers are often clergy or nuns and this cuts back operating costs. Also, the non-profit centers are eligible for the federal meal plan for children whereas profit centers arc not. These factors enable the non-profit centers to spend more money on equipment and facilities. The cost to the parent at profit or non-profit centers, however, is similar. by Paid Maggkrtto -/ ’ .

Chancellor Ernest Boyer said the reductions in the budget will reduce SUNY enrollment by 5000 students below the present levels, eliminate 1000 faculty and staff positions, and increase dormitory and room rent charges. The cutbacks will also close SUNY-operated high schools, abolish the state scholarship program for graduate students, impose a 16 percent pay cut for about 2000 SUNY employees who will be shifted from a 12 to a 10 month working year, force a cutback in important medical services at SUNY’s two University hospitals, and decrease state support of Community Colleges by 8 percent. ' Adjustments The proposed cuts follow a $10 million expenditure ceiling imposed on SUNY in the 1975-76 budget. “That ceiling lias already caused SUNY to eliminate, 530 faculty and staff positions and reduce academic programs, maintenance and other services on many of its campuses,” Boyer said. He admitted, however, that Carey is doing what must be done state-wide to face the present tight financial situation. “The Uhiycrsity is determined to accept austerity, to. bring fiscal stability to New York State,” he said. “At the same time the University has been hit,” he continued. “We cannot continue to drain the resources of SUNY and keep its Vitality on top of the cuts intact. The moves we are now forped to make already suffered force the University to ejchause all possibilities for significant savings and increasing iqcQme consistent with its scope and public mission.” Boyer declared that education must be reaffirmed in New York as a necessity, and not “aluxury.”s «I f*| v “This is a young and vigorous University. We are determined to remain strong while accommodating to the current crisis,” he pledged. - - U'. - Marriage dips as divorce jumps (CPS) Marriage is proving to be about as popular as unemployment these days, with the number of people deciding not to marry almost doubling in some age groups since 1970. A Census Bureau report recently released on marriage and other living arrangements shows that as of last March, the number of persons between 25 and 34 who never married has risen by nearly 50 percent since 1970. While 2.8 million people in that age group had never married in 1970, the figure in March of 1975 was 4.2 million persons. When people do marry, they marry later in life, according to the Census figures. The median age at which men marry for the first time is 23.5 years, while the median age for womens’ first marriage is 21.2 years. The corresponding figures for 1970 showed that people married slightly younger, at 23.2 years and women at 20.8 years. At the same time that fewer people are deciding to marry, more are beginning to realize that they don’t want to continue to be married. The divorce rate is continuing the rapid rise that began in 1968. The divorce rate, according to provisional figures compiled by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare, has increased two percent over the 4.6 per thousand population mark in 1974. What’s behind an increase in divorces and drop in marriages? Census Bureau officials say they don’t ask since they’re a government agency and can’t invade the privacy of people. But Arthur Norton, chief of the Census Bureau’s Marriage and Family Branch took a guess for the Washington Post, saying, “When you think about it, it seems that perhaps a new set of values is being tried out and maybe established by young adults.” He said that instead of leaving home to marry and raise a family, more young people seem to be establishing a non-family household after leaving home the first time, pursuing a career or education before deciding to raise a family. Although it’s assumed that these people will marry at a later date, Norton said, it may be that we will have a larger proportion staying single throughout their lives. — Long lines for dope?

The emphasis has now shifted from exploration of the moon to explaining the origin of the planets. Current interest centers on the two un-manned Viking spacecrafts that are scheduled to land July 4 and sometime in September. Bill Berbing of the National Space and Aeronautics Administration (NASA) news room reports these spacecrafts can scoop up soil from the planet’s surface and its analyze composition for the possible presence of living organisms. The spacecrafts will also take samples of the atmosphere, measure any magnetic forces, take seismic readings, record impacts on the Martian surface, make thermal and water vapor mappings, take panoramic color phenomena, the distribution of volcanoes, and earthquakes pictures of the surface, and take sea-floor spreading and deep sea pictures of the planet as it orbits trenches. It is theorized that Mars and approaches.

Land features Scientists are hopeful that this space mission will further provide information about Martian land features and internal structures. Most scientists believe the channels on Mars’ surface is water-formed, although presently the wind causes most erosion. Other land features include volcanoes, from which the atmosphere and water vapor have originated, and great canyons, some as large as 4 miles deep, 50 miles wide and 3000 miles long. The canyons are believed to be formed as a result of the separation of plates, similar to those of the Earth’s surface, according to the theory known as plate tectonics. The theory claims there are a number of plates on the earth’s crust “floating” over a more dense layer, and is used to explain, among other natural g Tht India Studvnt Rssoc. pptitnii a movit THE RDVER5RRY by The Internationally acdaimed director - SHTYHJIT RHY Sat.

The craft could be used over 100 times and its boosters up to 50 times, which would result in a great savings. Currently, space hardware can only be used only once. The news room reported that in the President’s budget for the 1976-77, fiscal more year cutbacks from NASA will result in 500 layoffs. Down from a peak of over 40,000 civil servants and a budget of $5.1 billion in 1969 before the Apollo II was launched, NASA currently employs less than 25,000 people and has a budget of S3.1 billion. Less than 1 percent of the U.S. budget goes to NASA, compared to 26 percent for national defense and 40 percent for welfare programs. NASA estimates that for every dollar they receive, $7 are returned to the economy, through jobs and the sale of computers and other technological apparatus abroad.

By last November, it seemed as though the Blue Editor’s note: The following letter was sent to Association Executive Vice President Arthur Bird Bus Company, after nearly two years of trial-and-error, Student Lalonde. had finally put together an efficient, well-regulated timetable I feel compelled to reply to your letter to the which minimized the hassles of commuting around this editor (The Spectrum 1/26/76), because, instead of sprawling University. At least the buses were comfortable. clarifying any alleged misconceptions regrading Sub Board I’s actions against the Film Committee’s In December, the employees of Blue Bird went on strike weekend series, jt raises more questions than it and the Administration, evidently forewarned, swiftly answers, and is repleat with gross generalizations, contradictions and half-truths which are designed replaced Blue Bird with the Grand Island Transport and not to clarify the issue to the University community Ridge Road Bus Companies. Under the circumstances, this but to deceive them. Point No. 1: temporary measure was all that could be expected. “(W] (Sub Board Point by But when classes resumed earlier this month, by which time the strike had ended. Grand Island and Ridge Road were still servicing most of the University's busing needs while Blue Bird was retained only for the Main Street to Ridge Lea route. The 12,000 plus students who rely on the buses are now faced with grossly overcrowded, off-schedule rides on vehicles which were designed to shuttle five-year olds back and forth to grammar school. Between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. the situation is at best tolerable, but during the peak commuting hours in the morning and late afternoon, chaos ensues. The early-morning run between Amherst and Ridge Lea is one example of this ridiculous situation. A packed bus departs from the Ellicott Tunnel, standing room only (which is especially hazardous, and perhaps illegal, for there are no overhead bars for passengers to grip), and within five minutes, arrives at Governor's, where more often than not, it cannot accommodate all of the students waiting to board. The yollow wonder next proceeds to the Law School, where several students disembark, leaving at least a few empty spaces which could have been used by the students left stranded at Governor's. e In your letter, you state that I), in no way, want to ‘ban’ any films.” Yet, in the very next paragraph, you state that “... the Film Committee chose to ignore the Board of Directors (of Sub Board I) and kept the same films. We responded by singling out eight films which would not be shown (my emphasis) to be replaced by more popular titles.” First of all, the last statement reeks with vindictiveness. But more important than that, Mr. Lalonde, you have contradicted yourself. How can you possibly justify your initial denial with your next statement? How can you say that the ordering of the elimination from the weekend series of certain films that do not meet Sub Board I’s criteria for popularity is not, in fact, a ban of them? You know as well as 1 that most of the movie houses of Buffalo wouldn’t touch most of those “eliminated” films with a ten-foot pole because they figure that they won’t make any money off of them. If this is true (and you and I know damn well it is), how are we to have the opportunity (not to mention the right ) to see these films? Can you explain that one, Mr. Lalonde? Point No. 2: You state in your letter that “(Ulnfortunately, not to many students are coming to see the UUAB films. When a total of 87 people come for all three performances of a film, there is something wrong.” What film are you talking kbout? You seem to have, in the first place, the gall to think that most people are going to buy that argument, especially with only a single mysterious example. Well, let’s look at some concrete evidence: The UUAB Film Committee last semester 1 not made up for losses incurred by the previous only This scenario occurs several times a day, and not just Film Committee during the 1974-75 year (a year between Amherst and Ridge Lea. One possible alternative when they showed an over-abundance of your films) but made a profit of would be to have one or two shuttle buses operating so-called “popular” $1000 over its expenditures: approximately exclusively on the Amherst Campus. That way, buses How can you possibly justify the singling 2 between Main Street and Amherst, or Ridge Lea and out of films such as Louis Malle’s Zazie dans le and Lina Wcrtmuller’s Swept Away when Amherst, could avoid the time-consuming, dizzying metro Malle’s film Lacombe Lucien and Wetmuller double encirclement of the new campus. feature.

This makes you no better than a at this University, school buses are as important as textbooks Lyndon Johnson or Richard Nixo'n (to use overtly labored examples). and classrooms. Point No. 3: You state that “we (Sub Board I) do not want to turn the Conference Theater into another CAC type movie house. But we do want more of a balance in the film programming.” What db you call the current film listing?

On the other hand, Mr. Lalonde, I was informed by Film Committee members that all you did was attend a few meetings and submit two lists of films you wanted shown. You did nothing to help Dennis and the others put out a viable film program. Point No. 5: To comment on your last paragraph, I too, after much reflection, have to agree that Mr. Van Nortwick shouldn’t have been singled out for dubious complicity in actions resulting in the passage of your proposals. However, I think that you yourself are trying to pass the buck over to James Smalley when you state that “if anyone wants to bitch, James Smalley is the man to shout at. He is a graduate student (what does that mean, Mr. Lalonde?) and Chairman of Sub Board I. As such, he is the chief officer and person responsible for Sub Board’s actions.” Mr. Smalley may be officially responsible but I, as a student (and a commuter at that) and others within this University, hold you personally responsible for the current state of affairs and you should own up to it; Finally, . . . ' At first glance, Mr. Lalonde, this statement sounds very noble and well-meaning of you, but a closer look brings out some very problematical aspects of your desires. Most importantly, when you go out and survey a group of students, about what films they would like to see, invariably what you will get on the list are films that they are familiar with. The man/woman on the street (or student for that matter) will not necessarily seek out information about new, unusual and different films and will only be familiar with those films which his/her community makes available for him/her. And as we all know, theaters are out to make money and not give us the best for our money. But to get on to the point of the matter, I was under the assumption that pennis Fox was chosen chairperson of the Film Committee because of his expertise in film, in being aware of many good, interesting (and popular) films that weren’t being shown in Buffalo for the previously stated reasons. How many other people (outside of many members of the Film Committee, students of film like me, and astute film freaks, in general) know about these films which I argue we have a right to see? First of all, as I see it, this University serves both a cultural and educational function. That is, to introduce us to new ideas, concepts, cultures, etc. The Film Committee, as a vital and integral part of this University, has a moral obligation to not only book films that “entertain” and nothing more, but those films which not only “entertain,” but open up new vistas, new worlds for us. Film is one of the most unique mediums for getting ideas and concepts across. By denying us access to these films, you are subverting that obligation. And anyway, if all of these supporters of your ideas arc so numerous, why haven’t they joined the Film Committee to change it’s so-called "heretical” policies? The Film Committee is open to all members of this University. You don’t have to be appointed (like in Sub Board I) to become a member. All you have to do is have any interest in film, be it “popular” or otherwise. ’Also, the^FilA"Committee meetings are open members and non-members alike. All can speak at a Film Committee meeting. Only those people with an issue on the agenda may speak at a Sub Board I meeting. I argue that the Film Committee, unlike Sub Board and the Student Association, is a true example of participatory democracy at work. Also, you and your cohorts on Sub Board I and the Student Association Executive Committee think that it is easy to run a Film Committee. Do you have any conception as to the amount of work and frustration it takes to book films? First of all, people have to call or write to the distributors to find out whether films they want shown are available or not. Then there is the haggling over a price for rental. Then there are hassles over the scheduling of films so that the least amount of conflicts occur. And finally, one must make up the . ..... . .. . .... . .........

But there is one anomolous artifact in this gallery of cast-off art, an artifact which identifies my I freely confess it for what he friend really is: a Freak in Disguise. The artwork in question is a page from the 1903 Sears-Roebuck Catalog, blown up so big that it is the size of a refrigerator door. It features the garrish and erotic merits of an unlikely electrical belt, designed to cure in an average male every complaint imaginable by simply directing fantastic amounts of current to a wire and canvas ring which is then fitted around the penis. The model for this advertisement sports a thick handlebar mustache and is built like a boxing champion. The ring, dangling innocently from the electrical belt around his waist for purposes of display only, is, of course, huge. My mild-mannered friend the banker, in spite of his business-like appearance, and in spite of other outward and visible signs of his conservative profession, has obviously preserved within his consciousness that mild, but potentially disruptive, form of psychic disorder: a sense of humor. And along with millions of other people less than ten years ago. he instantly recognized the reprinted Saars-Roabuck Catalog for whet it really was all along: fantasy literature of the deepest and most — — compelling sort. It was inevitable that soon after this event, someone else would invent a more modern version of this rescued fantasy genre.

Electra Glide in Blue, originally one of the films ordered removed from the UUAB Film Committee's spring schedule, but later restored by the Sub Board Board of Directors, is playing in the Conference Theatre in Norton Hall tonight. Robert Blake, in his pre-"Baretta" days, stars as a pint-size motorcycle cop with a vicious nature and an Alan Ladd fixation ("Did you know that Alan Ladd and me were the same height?^). Electra Glide, directed by James William Guercio, the producer of Chicago's first few albums, has a strong cult following and a lot of vehement opinion on both sides of the critical fense.

Arts Editors Randi Schnur and Bill Maraschiello here present their opinions of four of those films: Dog Day Afternoon, The Man Who Would Be King, Lucky Lady and The Sunshine Boys.) WCMOmG DaCK. With a bargain. The bizarre sequence of events that inspired Sidney Lumet's Dog Day Afternoon remains fascinating despite its familiarity. Who, after all, could have imagined a Vietnam veteran robbing a Brooklyn bank in order to finance a sex change operation for his male wife? The achievement of the film is that Lumet, screenwriter Frank Pierson, and a generally superlative cast have captured this fascination, as well as the immediacy and intimacy that makes Dog Day Afternoon an intensely involving experience. Lumet and company perceptively dovetail several layers of meaning, all integral to the event. A lot of its appeal is farcical, rising out of the inability of almost everyone to do anything right The parade of schleps includes two thieves (Al Pacino and John Cazale), who choose a hank with practically no money; a beefy policeman (Charles Durning) who has to coordinate hundreds of overzealous cops; and the bland bank employees who are held hostage. In fact, no one in the film is more hateful than the one fully competent character: the obnoxious, stony FBI man (James Broderick) who ultimately foils the robbery. The grossly disproportionate media coverage the robbery received made it the closest thing we're likely to see to Andy Warhol's 15 minutes when "everyone wilt be famous." The feeling we get when we see one of the hostages being interviewed, or a pizza boy delivering food to the bank (afterwards shouting, "I'm a fucking star\") is much the same gratification we feel when it appears that Pacino and Cazale might get away with it: someone we know has managed to beat the System.' There's also an effective tension working, which serves as a bond between the audience and the people involved, as well as those people themselves. Occasionally The low-comedy is too apparent, but the situation and the actions always ring true.

Clark Gable and Humphrey Bogart both died long before Huston's newest film finally went into production; but, as the story has it, the director is quite satisfied with the way things turned out anyway. ~ - At one point in the screenplay, the two British con men. Peachy and Danny, are asked by an awe-stricken Kaffir whether they are gods, and Huston had definite qualms about asking Bogie to reply, 'We're Englishmen, the- next best thing." The line comes far more naturally to Michael Caine and it is difficult to imagine any other actors replacing him and Sean Connery here with anything like their brilliant success. As a pair of ex-soldiers in colonial India intent on conquering a nearly inaccessible country and then making off with the national treasury, Connery and Caine show a cocky, off-handed, perfect courage in the face of near-disaster that places them among the very few heroes in recent cinematic history. The screenplay by Huston and Gladys Hill uses the same understatement and precision of detail, with the same wonderful result. The fireworks all erupt from the heart of the story itself; it only remained for those in charge to tame them, to give them the proper colors, forms and directions. The expert pyrotechnicians who put together The Man Who Would Be King has given us an unfailingly exciting adventure story, lots of gorgeously atmospheric photography, and a film partnership the quality of which Bogart and Gable (not to mention Bedford and Newman) could only dream about. Caine and Connery and richly for that matter, John Huston as well deserve the crowns to which Danny and Peachy couldn't hold on. — his patented restive rasp, "is that you can't tell the difference between us and our routines anymore." Simon, also, has no identity beyond his routines. It's reflex action: tap him on the funnybone and a joke comes out. What matters, though, isn't what Matthau and Burns do, but how they do it and that's as professionally as two performers ever could handle it. Matthau is everyone's cantankerous old relative belligerent and dense, but lovable and feisty to the last. Burris has a gentler quality, quieter and more resigned; he's.a beautiful object illustration of the art of growing old gracefully. And Matthau clearly means every word of it when, in describing his partner, he says: "No one could time a joke like him." Richard Benjamin, Matthau's nephew who brings the two together, is better than he's been since the days when he graced the Tube in "He and She." There's a very sad quality to The Sunshine Boys it's the same kind you experience when you see Grouch Marx on TV, or Jack Benny just before his death. Seeing these people, our models of cleverness and comic skill for so long, succumbing to their years is affecting, even when it happens fictionally. But countering this is a great, victorious balance: George Burns, close to 80, handling himself so splendidly in what may be his last curtain call. —B.M. - — (•I BEER wine cheese AND MORE!!!

Their apparently conscious departures from the expected are, well, interesting but (with the possible exception of Star Number Two) they are refusing to give us precisely what they give best. and the resulting film is not nearly as intriguing as is the. question of what director Stanley Donen could have been thinking of when he made such silly decisions. The Lucky Lady is a boat or, rather, a series of boats that get bigger each time the reel is changed which Claire, Walker and Kippy use to run booze from Mexico into California during Prohibition. The force of each character's avarice waxes and wanes, along with the enthusiasm of the local Coast Guard. But at least one of them always seems to have the strength to push the others into just one more fun-filled and death-defying run, untily death almost succeeds in defying them in the person of mean Christy McTeague, “a slimy octopus strangling all the independent runners." This only makes things more interesting to our three heroes, though, spurring a small armade of temporarily united minor businessmen to grapple with the meanest octopus in the sea. Reynolds ’earns special notice during the big battle scene by his total (and, let us hope, intentional) lack of coordination. He even loses the girl, who consents to make love to him once and then graciously explains that "I'm only doin' this 'cause I never done it on a boat before." The sets (particularly the interior of the San Diego hotel in which the trio blows its first* returns) and Liza's constumes are as creative and self-parodic as the screenplay by Willard Huyck and Gloria Katz should be. It never is, which is another mistake. The line between wit and silliness is not particularly fine, but a slightly Lighter touch might have helped this company across it. As it stands.

Although an adequate pianist and vocalist, I can think of a thousand others who have much more interesting quirks and talents. On the first track "It's In Every One of Us," it becomes apparent that' most of his compositions are woeful ballads to his mistress' eyebrow. He is a master of euphemistic metaphor, as evidenced by "The Hit Song of All Time." In this track, he attempts to portray a sexual encounter as he "... Struck a chord in your heart and you tuned up to me." This kind of concept was much better covered in Baez's "Love Song to a Stranger," or more on Pomeranz's level, the Supremes' "I Hear a Symphony." I don't mean to be overly degrading, but I'm tired of new releases that attempt to have universal appeal. I hear enough muzak in my dentist's office. This isn't to say that this album is completely worthless. "Greyhound Mary," for instance, has an interesting reggae influence. "High Together" has a soulful bass line. "Flying," for all its ridiculous lyrics ("Floating up in my balloon/ nothing around me but air/ and you"), has some interesting sound effects and a rather comical dog barking. But the only cut that achieves genuine musical interest is "Home to Alaska." It's a rather unusual change, as the public has probably had its fill of Californias, Alabamas, Georgias, ad infinitum. The song also boasts some exciting drumming by Dennis St. John and a good syncopated beat. Pomeranz could be viewed as the male counterpart to Manchester, if his work were a little more inspired. In his genre, Tim Moore and Art Garfunkel are much more creative and exciting. I know Clive Davis is anxious to get started with his new label, but he should examine the quality of his new artists a little more carefully than this. —Barbara Komansky SSSSS5SS: *x*x^x-xx*x-x-xvx-x* I sounding flute is supplied by Jimmy Hastings and-Mel Collins sparkles on saxophone.

I �- -4 Sunset and Other Beginnings (Neighborhood) Why I should like Melanie has always been somewhat of a mystery to me. She really can't sing her voice lacks the beauty and range of Joni Mitchell but is incapable of the intense emotional expressions that Janis Joplin used to have. Her style is nothing special, tending to be overly commercial at times (“Candles in the Rain" played a large part in the commercialization of Woodstock). Nevertheless, even though I'm not a fan of hers, her music holds some sort of me. "Stop the car if I have come this far Without learning how to make an unexpected Melanie, RECORDS I — turn Learn to play the changes to the beat of time Satisfaction never was a friend of mine Perceive it and say goodbye to it" Thus begins Melanie's newest album. These lyrics and the title seem to imply some radical stylistic change, but in actuality they are just wishful thinking on her part. The few changes that do occur are largely superficial, such as the increased use of the mandoliii for ornamentation and the frequent substitution of the saxophone for the recorder. When she does make an attempt at a different style, it fails miserably. Can you imagine Melanie doing “I've Got My Mojo Working" or a medley of "You Can't Hurry Love" and "Mama Said"? Don't bother; it's.worse than you think. Fortunately, those are the only bad songs on the just what you'd album. The other material is nice expect from her. She retains her acoustic backdrop, which is built, as usual, around the nylon guitar and piano. She has also written some good melodies, especially on "Sandman" and an uptempo "Perceive — Bob Dylan, Desire (Columbia) This is it. As a longtime advocate of Bob Dylan's songwriting, as well as a sometime defender of his musical talent, I have had to put up with a lot of abuse in recent years, but this hit. You were reight, he is terrible, and so is his new album Desire. I recently read an article in which someone close to him was quoted as saying that Bob had finally conquered his ego; that his current all-star tour and new-found candor with the press were definite proof of this. I laughed as I remembered seeing his face on the cover of People magazine, saying that he'd like to be thought of as "exclusive, rather than seclusive." Apparently Dylan decided that the only way to communicate with his typically low-brow audience was to sit down and write some very lame tunes with no confusing poetic images or rhyme schemes to worry about. Since he has had difficulty writing such songs in the past, this time he enlisted the help of someone named Jacques Levy, who co-authored seven of Desire's nine. I don't know what Levy's past credits are, but they must be better than Dylan's, for the two of them together write ten times more poorly than Bob at his worst. I'll assume that everyone has heard the epic single "Hurricane," the story of how Rubin Carter was framed for homicide. Unfortunately, "Hurricane" is representative of the rest of the album, and may be its most interesting cut, by virtue of its laughably trite lyrics. It's nice to see Bob and Jacques busy writing protest songs (Allen Ginsberg contributes a ream of liner notes to this effect) but it seems that they could have put a little more thought or time into picking rhymes for a story as tragic as. Carter's. Bette Midler, Songs for the New Depression (Atlantic) Bette Midler has secured an impressive assemblage of musicians for her latest outing. Songs for the New Depression. Ms. Midler has amassed a contingent of notables that include such diverse talents as Todd Rundgren, the Brecker Brothers Bob Dylan and Rick Derringer. It is incredulous to think Come on. The sad thing is that, as far as poetic content is concerned, the rest of Desire does not fare much‘better. The songs "Isis" and "Sara" both contain, vague traces of the old Dylan madness, and are probably the only worthwhile cuts on the record. Another interesting feature of Dylan's alleged new personality is the way he chose musicians for this Ip. Apparently not satisfied to cover up his often monotonous singing and harp with the help of competent musicians. Bob has recruited an entire troupe of amateurs who actually succeed in making him sound worse. The moaning violin which figures so prominently on "Hurricane" is also featured on just about every other song on Desire, and if you don't hate it yet, listen some more. Even sweet-voiced Emmylou Harris, probably the best-known musician on the album, sounds strained and sour when singing harmony with Dylan, and she also keeps it up for most of the Ip- , I am having trouble thinking of anything else to say about this record, but I would advise any of you who have not already caught the message not to but it unless of course you hate Dylan, in which case you deserve to. —Amanda B.

Zielinski from which to function in ranging from disco to lush ballads. "Strangers in the Night" receives a disco reworking that oddly enough almost clicks. Dianne Sumler and Luther Vandross (of "Fascination" fame) .generate some rousing background vocal support and Bette breezes and eases on down the number. Dylan's "Buckets of Rain," in which Bob and Bette croon together rather nicely, is one of the few isolated pockets of spontaneity on the album. It is now that snafus in the shape of poorly chosen tunes begin to rear their heads and take their inevitable toll. The overbearing and gaudy chorus and strings that comprise "Tragedy" are indicative of thi^, fault. Too often Bette's material oozes with a neo-nostalgia and an unappealing Carmen Miranda feel. Part of the blame for this can be attributed to producer Moogy Klingman. Klingman should have been more discerning in song selection and direction It is disturbing to note that Midler's eclecticism becomes an attempt at eluding any emotional involvement with the songs. The various song formats offer little more than a showcase for a tepid exercise in style and form. In this manner, Midler foregoes vocal vulnerability and risk in favor of a mechanical fascination with style. The results of this preoccupation with style causes quasi-melodic soap operas in which Midler is alienated and imprisoned from touching either the audience or the songs. Another problem is the seeming lack of coordination among producers, conductors and arrangers. There are simply too many chefs for this musical broth. Finally Klingman should have given the album a continuity and fluidity which the album sorely needs. In the last analysis, it is a sure bet Bette's Songs for the New Depression is at best middling Midler. —C.P. Farkas „ , And to the black folks he was just a crazy nigger No one doubted that he pulled the trigger . . . and sounding tired on others do crop up in some places, but they aren't as noticeable as they were on many of her previous albums. The use of other people's material comes across quite well on this album. This is particularly true with Lerner and Loew's ''Almost Like Being in moody tone Love," which is given such a that it is barely recognizable. On her own songs, Melanie is still the optimist who believes that someday love will rule the world. Here, however, she sings of it as a tenacious hope rather than a deluded that such a gifted lineup coupled with Midler's vocal attributes could be anything short of stupendous. Yet the incredulous has its day on Songs for the New Depression. Brilliance is erased by a collective mediocrity stamped with a pretty but hollow blandness. Any song interpreter, in a large part, stands or chosen for falls in regard to the performance. Bette has selected a number of genres Carole King, Thoroughbred (Ode) At last, Carole King has given us another album. only been a Technically, slightly it has longer-than-average wait, but Ms. King has returned with a collection of songs that far surpasses the quality of the semi-conceptual Fantasy and lazy feeling of Rhymes and Reasons. This album contains the kind of work that made Tapestry appealing to 13 million worldwide. Opening the album is “So Many Ways," an effort featuring only King and her keyboard. She is home after the first note; an occurrence made possible by heartfelt vocals and majestic piano playing. It is a beautiful expression of her contentment with her marriage and family. Instead of lethargic complacency, though, the feeling is emotional and genuine. This quality continues throughout the album, as evidenced in the next track, "Daughter of Light." Ms. King wants her daughter to have the opportunity to "... do anything you want to do," and you believe it. Collaborating with her former husband and writing partner Gerry Coffin on this and three other outstanding tracks, one of the most productive teams of the sixties is once again, in the seventies. functioning at their top form. These are all new numbers, nothing like the recycled "Will You Love Me Tomorrow." Helping out in the instrumental section are the old standbys, Danny Kortchmar, Russ Kunkel and Lee Sklar on guitar, drums and bass, respectively. James Taylor lends his six-string efforts on "Still Thinking of You," and joins the Nash/Crosby vocal '*■ team on "High Out of Time" and "I'd Like to Get to Know You Better." The interesting new additions to the entourage are the pervasive horns of Tom Scott and the vocal work of L.A.'s favorite son John David Souther. Although there is nothing here to match the raw power of "I Feel the Earth Move" or "Back to California," the album is mellow without having the effect of Sominex, which unfortunately so many releases exhibit these days. Lou Adler's production is impeccable, a welcomed change from his usual heavy hand. It's nice to see that one of the major creative forces in music can still find it in her to realize her potential, rather than to just lay back and reap the profits of former efforts. —Barbara Komansky Friday, 30 January 1976 .

Play It Again Sam, only purchases albums on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. The store buys records every day except Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Government by negation To the Editor: Dr. Ketter’s actions affecting student activities and the use of student funds have been variously rationalized. There is unfortunately some legal defense for his actions on the Attica demonstration, there was some cause for concern and a need to respond to Cavage’s complaints, and there may be problems of liability contingent upon the details of licensure of the Sub Board Pharmacy. However, the administration’s action with regard to the pharmacy most clearly illustrates a problem affecting all these situations: Robert Kctter’s apparent inability to govern other than by negation. If a service is non-political and clearly beneficial to the student community, is it not the University administration’s duty to support such a service? If progress toward this service is made through perserverance of concerned students, should not the administration make an effort to be aware of these efforts and to aid in them? Ajid if there are difficulties, legal or otherwise, are there no other means of control than prohibition and impoundment of funds? It appears that this administration is incapable of discussion with students, unaware that students are often rational human beings who might cooperate in finding solutions to slightly sticky problems which the administration seems to comprehend only in terms of fiscal on/off flow valves. The creation of services and the coordination of activities can and must occur at all levels. Improvement of services at this University should be initiated by the President’s office, but its initiation by students or faculty must also be encouraged and certainly not willfully destroyed. While the threatened review of The Spectrum's funding raises the spectre of repression, the administration’s recent actions to cripple the Sub-Board Pharmacy must make us also worry about Robert Ketter’s failure to interact constructively with the progressive members of this University. The article in Monday’s The Spectrum regarding University busing situation shows just how stupid University administrators can be .if they put their rhinds to it. The article stated that the Ridge Road and Grand Island Bus Companies were being paid the same price as Blue Bird was for the the University’s busing contract. The fact is that the University is getting gypped because for the same price, we are getting worse service. The school buses now in service are not nearly large enough to handle the demand. Although Blue Bird usually made a lot of people stand, they at least got everyone on, which isn’t the case now. Things go so bad, 1 witnessed a near “bus riot” a coiiple of nights ago. Many times scheduled buses do not show up. I — Paige Miller Improving education To the Editor. Well, at long last it appears'that a ray of light escaped from the mundane pages of your journal. I don’t intend the above statement to be facetious because I want to compliment you on your “For a Basic editorial of January 28th entitled Writing Course.” The Spectrum has not editorialized on academic issues to an overabundant degree and it is satisfying when one finally occurs. As for the Freshman course itself, I feel that you expressed the premises fairly well. Reading and writing skills among college students are very much in doubt and this trend is worsening. One can believe that the prime purpose of any higher education institution should be to teach a student how to analyze information and express himself. The Faculty Senate has — Educational Planning and Policy Committee is making an honest attempt to reach that goal. As a member of that committee, I, at first, had many course format. anxieties over the required Requirements of any kind have long been anathema to any past student governments. The support this proposal has received from Student Association Executives, the Academic Affairs Task Force, and now The Spectrum can only stand to demonstrate to various administrative and faculty figures that students are interested in their education and further, they are willing to actively support such reasonable measures designed to improve this education. David Shapiro, Director Academic Affairs Lesson in penmanship To the Editor: This letter is in response to a subtle form of oppression to which we are all subjected. (It’s form js subtle, but sure as hell, sinister!) I can best illustrate by asking you to get a pencil and piece of paper; then just write the word “IMPOSSIBILITY.” Now, aren’t you pissed off? No? Well, look at what you’ve just done. You wrote four a word and then “had” to perform five acts just so society “i’s” dotted and one “T” crossed can say the word is complete. I say, don’t accept this kind of fascist ‘crap’ handed down to you from the - L. Wolff Student, School of Medicine Michael can’t understand why either. Since the Amherst Campus opened, I can only recall a bus not showing once and later I learned it was due to a mechanical failure. But in the two weeks since this new semester began, 1 have been left waiting for a bus that never came four times. Lastly, many buses are just plain late. That is understandable in bad weather such as we have been having lately, but then how can you explain that the few Blue Birds still running seem to be on time? In short, the bus service here at Buffalo has gone from at best fair, to plain intolerable, and the people in charge of overseeing the buses have done nothing except hide in their ivory towers. I submit that these people have not been earning their salaries and that their salaries could be better used to alleviate the problems bus-riders face right now. bureaucratic establishment (Rocky and his boys). STOP DOTTING “i’s” and CROSSING “TV” More importantly, demand that you’ not be penalized in class for your convictions and rights. Before closing, I will just add that i’m considering the ethics of putting the little “v” on the straight line to form what the bureaucracy calls a “k.” You might argue that this alleged “k” would then be what “they” call an “I” (eye). Well, I say the hell with that! MAKE THE “I” squiggly. - Petroleum Vesuirous Nasby School of Management Marketplace values To the Editor. I am writing to express my concern regarding recent developments between Sub Board and the UUAB Film Committee. My immediate reaction to the news that the Film Committee’s Chairperson would be fired unless he agreed to cancel a group of “foreign, art films,” was one of dismay. It is unfortunate that in a University community, the values of the marketplace should, according to some, take precedence over one of the important roles of a university: to expose its students to arts programming which is innovative, culturally enriching and otherwise inaccessible. 1 have no quarrel with “popular” films; but to insist that the latter should comprise the whole bill of fare seems to lead to an unbalanced program. For that matter, the UUAB Film Committee does offer popular films. I further understand that the Film Committee is an income-producing one, despite its use of a selection criterion less commercial than “Have most of our students heard of these movies?” I hope that Sub Board will reconsider its present course of action, and that, if responsiveness to students is considered the central issue, this responsiveness will be judged somewhat less subjectively, and that the rights of the minority of students (who also pay student fees) will, be taken into account as well. Esther Swartz Office of Cultural Affairs Proposal on a proposal To the Editor: After much deliberation, the Student Corps for has decided it will only back the proposed basic writing course for all students if: 1) All current faculty members, except those showing that can publications they with communicate in basic English, be required to take the course over the summer; 2) Any prospective faculty member, regardless of the fact that he or she may be from this country or another nation that nominally speaks English, be required to take the course during their first semester here; 3) That all administrators and non-teaching professionals be required to complete the course by some date within the next year or so; 4) That all speeches and proposals in the Faculty Senate show some proficiency in the English language, especially those attacking alleged student illiteracy; and 5) That the Faculty Senate resolution mandating the course for students be rewritten so that it can be understood to some extent by people who are not members of that body but yet speak the English language. With these few additions, we believe this is a truly fine proposal which should be okayed by Dr. Ketter, as long as he can read it.

Reiss Staff Writer Spectrum Editor’s note: This is another in the continuing series of interviews which appear from time to time in The Spectrum sports pages The series deals with the condition of athletics at this school Today, The Spectrum talks to Robert Cohen, Speaker’s Bureau Chairman. Cohen’s experiences as an athlete and then as a critic of athletic funding. exclusively from SA, a situation which Cohen called “utterly ridiculous.” The blame for the problem, according to Cohen, lies with the state. Its inability to provide adequate funds for student activities is at the root of the problem. “I think it’s a good thing to have varisty athletics but I don’t think the SA should be solely responsible for supporting it. 1316 state has a responsibility to set up a education establishment,” Cohen decent physical explained. As a result, Buffalo coaches have annual monetary headaches during SA budget hearings. If the present system is allowed to continue, Cohen feels that the days of varsity athletics may be numbered. Cohen explained that the way the system is set up, student mandatory fees cannot be raised. This stagnant fee, Cohen claimed, coupled with rising costs, will give the students Jess for their money each year. ' - , Among the more controversial issues facing the Student Association (SA) is the amount of money that should be allotted to athletics, both intramural and varsity. The key question is whether athletics is a necessary function of a college campus. Robert Cohen, Director of the Student Association (SA) Speaker’s Bureau has seen the issue from both sides of the coin. As a freshman, Cohen was a runner for Buffalo’s varisty cross-country team. But last year, as a member of SA, Cohen turned against spending large sums of money for athletics. In an interview with The Spectrum, Cohen claimed that he was not at all against funding varsity athletics, but that the question at hand is one of priorities. A question of priorities “The way the question is framed, it’s a choice between community services like CAC [Community Action Corps] and NYPIRG [New York Public Interest Research Group] or athletics,” Cohen said. “If I were given the same choice today between athletics and socially valuable projects I would choose the projects because compared to them, athletics is sort of a luxury,” he added. Cohen explained that his experience in dealing with SA has helped him see the picture more clearly. “The more I learn about the SA and the more I learn about the money situation around here, the more I realize it’s a matter of how you frame the question. The question now is framed so that all these interests are pitted against each other. I still think that between athletics and social action, social action is a higher priority.” Students pay The money used to fund athletics at Buffalo comes Upping the fees A possible solution to the ever decreasing value of the mandatory student fee would be a mandatory athletic fee, to be used exclusively for athletics. Cohen felt that such a proposal would not be the best of solutions. “I don’t think it would be a good idea unless there was a popular demand for it,” Cohen stated. “If it were tacked on to the mandatory student fee students might just say no to the fee as a whole. I really hate to ask people to pay more money. Why should students have to pay for a decent athletic program?” Another aid to the ailing athletic program could lie in the Alumni Association. According to Universityj Robert Cohen regulations, Buffalo alumni may not donate scholarship money to entice top athletes to come to Buffalo. facilities there are you can hardly use because they are Cohen would support alumni scholarships, but favored constantly being used by varsity teams.” athletic recruiting only to a certain degree. One positive aspect Cohen found with the athletic situation here is the intramural program. “As a whole it’s Recruiting as a solution under the circumstances,” he said. “In terms of “It depends upon where the money comes from. If athletics, the state pays for it, sure. A lot of people I know came studen money- s more important than varsity from Bedford-Stuyvesant in New York and recruiting Cohen claimed that another factor affecting athletics at Buffalo is the attitude of President Robert Ketter. helped them get out of the city and into a nice school.” Cohen believes the athletic facilities at this University Cohen called the administration “a negative factor on are a disgrace. “They’re completely inadequate.

DETKOIT, MICHIGAN 4(216 �Wrestling Bulls trounced by Sooners of Oklahoma by Marshall Rosenthal Spectrum Staff Writer But perhaps the most impressive facet is the Oklahoma wrestling about achievements of its grapplers. Boasting a team with six High School State an NCAA tournament Champions, champion, a Big Eight champion, and five Mid-Season All-Americans is enough to make any opponent think twice, especially since the Sooners were the runnersup in the NCAA tourney last year, and winners ■Q 19,74. What impresses most Sooner opponents is their youth. Oklahoma Coach Stan Abel said, “Our kids are so young that they don’t know how good they are. Give them another year and they will.” This was not the first time Abel faced the Bulls or Coach Michael. “Buffalo has a fine program. I remember when they beat the tar out of me when I coached at Cincinnati,” remarked Abel. The Sooners are one of the perennial powerhouses in college wrestling today. They have a winning tradition, their wrestlers know their skills and the team is always in excellent shape. Buffalo’s wrestling, Bulls were trounced 39-7 by the ppwerful Oklahoma Sooners before a packed house of about 1S00 last Monday night. Buffalo coach Ed Michael termed his team’s performance “middle of the road. I’ve seen them better, but I’ve seen them worse.” Accounting for the Bulls’ seven points were Co-captains Bruce Hadsell and Erik Drasgow. Displaying strength and skill, Sooner Drasgow devastated his counterpart, a three time Texas High School State Champion, 17-3. Meanwhile, Hadsell wrestled to a 6-6 draw, where he appeared to be the superior wrestler. Despite the matches’ final outcome, the Bulls exhibited tremendous skill against the sixth ranked Sooner*, with many matches generating a lot of excitement. It was the Bulls’ middleweights that provided most of that excitement. Besides DrasgowV and riadsell's matches, Bulls Gene Tundo, Kirk Anderson, and Bob Martineck lost tight decisions, 9-5, 7*6 and 9-2 respectively. Each wrestler at one point scored a near pin, but the Sooners proved too strong an j overall opponent. The Sooners were lightning quick and amazingly strong. Move for move, the Bulls’ technique equalled that of Oklahoma counterparts. The main reason for the 32 point margin lay in the Sooners’ The Bulls, too, have that excellent tradition of winning, and they are as well coached as Oklahoma. So, why is the thought of Buffalo defeating the Sooners so absurd? The reason is that big schools like Oklahoma attract the top high school athletes, with colleges like Buffalo having to scrap for lesser talent. But the reasoning does not end there. Coaches Michael and Abel lay the blame on conditioning. FREE SUPPER & Oklahoma's Shawn Caret (bottom) tangles with Buffalo's Tony Olivari in Monday's wrestling contest at Clark. Caret, the current NCAA champion at 116 pounds easily handled Oliver! 12-3, and set the trend for the Sooners' 39-7 triumph overall. an uneven distribution of scholarships and aid. Whereas the Sooners have an overabundance of aid at their disposal to attract athletes, Buffalo has none. Michael pointed oat, “Without us having aid, Oklahoma schedules a match thinking we’re a team to beat up on.” With all things considered, Abel was as impressed with Buffalo as the Bulls were with Oklahoma. He remarked, “They are a fine team and well coached. Without aid, for what they offer, they have one heck of a team. Their five middleweights are real tough.” Because of the strong wrestling program he* has produced, Michael commented on the possibility of his Bulls competing against schools, the calibre of the Oklahoma Sooner* in the near future. *Td like to think we can, but that will be contingent upon grants and aid. Right now, I’m trying to work something out for next year.” Nevertheless, this year’s Bulls have continued to improve with every match. They are 100 percent better than the team that started back in mid-November. Abel states his definition of success as, “taking the kids you’ve got and doing the best you can with them." By Abel’s own admission, Michael is quite a successful coach and his wrestling Bulls are a successful team.

The SpECTI\UM \ State University of New York at Buffato Wednesday, 28 January 1976 Vol. 26, No. 49 Faculty Senate Mandatory writing course is proposed ... by Laura Bartlett Campus Editor Editor’s note: The following is the first in two articles on recent Faculty Senate committee reports Part / deals with the Educational Planning and Policy Committee’s proposal for a basic writing course for freshmen.. The Faculty Senate’s Educational Planning and Policy Committee has proposed a mandatory basic writing course far incoming freshmen. The proposal resulted for “widespread dissatisfaction among faculty with the level of reading/writing/conceptualizing skills” among undergraduate students at this University. In its report to the Senate, the committee said this dissatisfaction not only became very evident in its deliberations, but has been highlighted in reports from the College Entrance Examination Board and the American College Testing Programs. Charged by the Senate with considering “the first two years of the undergraduate program and to recommend changes,” the seven faculty members and one student agreed that the implementation of a required Basic Writing Course for freshmen is “now both mandatory and timely.” - _ Specialization Traditionally, courses of this type were optional, offered through the English Department under the titles of “Freshmen English” or “English Composition.” The committee's proposal calls-#ar a Basic Writing Course to be given by University departments which emphasize the specialized writing skills needed in each area of study. If the committee’s proposal is adopted, the requirement will take effect next September, and the Basic Course will be listed with each department’s offerings. The report says, however, that the course will be considered a general undergraduate, not a departmental, requirement. Thus, if a student changes majors, he will not have to take the Basic Writing Course again. Committee members felt that, along with teaching students the basic writing skills needed for college level work, the specialization of the courese will “be an acknowledgement-one that we consider to be of that writing and conceptual skills are a fundamental importance responsibility of the entire University,” and not solely the responsibility of the English Department. — Demanding “To read, think, and express oneself competently are not specialized achievements. They are essential to all good University workand ought to be encouraged equally by all departments,” the committee report said. The committee only sees the need for one or two sections in each department, and for every section to be graded pass/fail to eliminate the pressure of grades. “An atmosphere in which criticism is easily absorbed and put to constructive use” would be created, the committee feels. With approximately 2500 entering students, it would be necessary to offer 50 sections of the Basic Writing Course each semester. A Basic Course Steering Committee would be appointed, independent of the Division of Undergraduate Education Curriculum Committee, to review the requirements for each section. Problems Preferably, the committee feels, it should be taught by full faculty members,, and not “be relegated to the most exploitable and least experienced members of a department, the teaching assistants.” “A perfectly respectable course might not qualify as a Basic Course due to overspecialization of subject matter, grading procedure by examinations rather than papers, or... objectives other than the development of writing skills,” the report said. Bi-weekly meetings of Basic Course instructors would be held, where special problems and teaching methods could be discussed; of Tfce committee admitted that “there may be problems feels confident that “the but organization” admteietaatien and advantages far outweigh the difficulties.” Representatives told the Senate that, as faculty members, they would be “remiss in [their] duties were [they} to ignore a situation that loudly calls for remedial action.” UUAB committee head Fox fired for not cancelling films by Randi Schnur & Mike McGuire Two of eight filing sponsored by the University Union Activities Board (UUAB), whose place on the spring film schedule is being contested by Sub Board, were voted back onto the list at Sub Board’s Board monthly meeting last Thursday night. However, Sub Board’s Board of Directors voted to fire Fine Arts Film Committee Chairperson Dennis Fox if he refused to cancel showings of the other six films by tomorrow. The original January 7 memorandum, in which Sub Board Executive Director Thomas Van Nortwick informed UUAB of the eight “exceptions” to the approved film schedule, directed that replacements be found “unless a firm commitment has been/ made with regard to these films.” Last week’s decision allowed the Film Committee no such leeway. The Committee is thus being asked to cancel contracts which have already been made with several distributors. The two reinstated films are Electra-Glide in Blue, which wiH be shown tomorrow and Friday, and Swept A way, which is scheduled for April 17 and 18 in the Norton Conference Theater. The action against Fox was taken soon after he told the Board of Directors that he could only cancel fijm showings if the rest of his committee concurred, and that the committee had no plans to do so. Fox was then asked if he was ready to resign, and he said he was not. He added that he was ready to be fired, and later in the meeting. Student Association President Michele Smith, an acting member of the Board, proposed a vote on the firing, which was passed by the Board. Defying authorities Smith and Board member Arthur Lalonde accused Fox of “defiance” of Sub Board in supporting his firing. Only two Board members, Bruce Campbell of the Student Association and Graduate Student Hurowitz of the Lauri Association, voted against firing Fox. Fox was told he would be retained by the Board only if he agreed to cancel the other six films. The films still under dispute are Zazie dam le Metro, The Little Theater of Jean Renoir, Les Violins du Bal, Black Moon, Tales of the Taira Clan, and Every Man for Himself and God Against All. Additional reactions to the Fox firing came from SA Speakers Bureau Chairperson Robby Cohen. Sub Board is contributing to “an atmosphere where innovative programming is stifled and disdained,” said Cohen, adding that the Board’s action was an “implicit attack on Speakers .Bureau.” Cohen feels that Speakers Bureau is endangered by the move because the organization is attempting to carry out the same sort of innovative and varied programming as the Film Committee. , A question of balance Cohen said he will take his complaints to the Speakers Bureau Committee and seek support for a resolution condemning the “bland, inoffensive entertainment” for which, he feels, “balance in programming” is simply another name. “Why take the risk of doing programming that may not draw tremendous crowds when you can bring old stand-bys. . that are guaranteed to pack ‘em in? Cohen’s resolution asks sarcastically. , ... - ’ . Top: ‘Swept Away Above: ‘Electro Glide in Blue’ Both Fox and UUAB Division Director David Benders emphasize that the main issue here is UUAB’s autonomy and status as “a legal entity of Sub Board” whose “decisions are definitive,” according to Benders. UUAB is “not just an extension of Sub Board,” Fox insists, adding that “UUAB has had a continuity and a democratic structure longer than Sub Board has been in existence.” Describing UUAB’s constitution, which was drawn up in 1968 to insure the maximum possible amount of student participation in its various committees, Benders asked, “How could they (Sub Board) say we don’t represent the students? We are the students!” When asked by Sub Board members last Thursday night whether he intended to oversee Fox’s compliance with their conditions, Benders said, he “just told them I didn’t think there would be anything to oversee,” since he believes it is “very unlikely” that the Film Committee will consent to any schedule changes. “We have a commitment to do things that are diversified,” Benders explained in defense of Fox’s position. Sub Board Chairman James Smalley could not be reached for comment Monday, while Student Association Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde, who has spearheaded the recent actions against the Film Committee, declined comment until after Smalley’s opinions are heard. �A new vice president for academic affairs F.

Wed. at 7 pm 205 Norton Bob Armand - - (CPS) The Athletes who star on the football field Saturday afternnon do not always shine as brightly in the classroom Monday morning- The absence of academic prowess in big-time athletes has begun to worry officials at several universities and has recently prompted a number of studies of athletes’ graduation and academic reocrds. It is no secret that many schools reduce their minimum academic admissions requirements for promising athletes. Since 1973, a recruit for a Big Ten conference school need only have a 2.0 high schobl GPA. And an athletic department official at the University of Minnesota admitted that the University was willing to take marginal Students in an effort to get the best athletes available Recently the State Board of Higher Education of Oregon gave the Chancellor the power to change admissions requirements for Oregon's state universities. The reason for this ruling was that some university presidents feared that Oregon’s higher admissions standards have “discriminated” against athletes who possibly wanted to attend college in Oregon. The GPA requirements for out-of-state transfers and entering freshmen will probably be lowered to the level of in-state requiremenls from a 2.5 to a 2.0 for freshmen and from a 2.75 to a 2.5 for transfers. The problem with lowering admissions requirements to bolster the athletic department is that universities often cannot keep their sports heroes from dropping or flunking out. This low graduation rate for athletes worried the director of athletics at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia so much that he initiated a study to find out where all his athletes were going. The study was started. Joseph McMullen explained, because he was concerned about why so main underclass rather than upperclass athletes were playing for Marshall - teams. “Recruiting the athletes shouldn’t only be looking at how fast he can run or how high he can jump, but more importantly at how the athlete can compete in an academic environment,” McMullen said, First Meeting Any questions contact: Saturday’s heroes tarnish on Monday 832-7954 831-2075 & “The school should get competence from the athlete both in academics and athletics.” But because college athletes often spend more time at practice sessions than hitting the books, many of them require special tutoring help. Only eight percent of the Big Ten conference football players were nominated for the 23rd annua) Big Ten All-Academic team. So tutoring programs, accredited by the NCAA, have been instituted at all of the Big Ten schools.

Appeals of the decision were turned down othe grounds the case was moot. The Trustees had new, recently implemented permanent procedures governing the use of the fees. In August, Levitt revealed that substantial funds used by the student government at the SUNY College at New Paltz were missing or unaccounted for. This was the only specific fee abuse he reported. ‘Improved supervision’ asked On September 17, 1970, the day the State Supreme Court rendered its crucial decision in New ordinance Aim to limit student housing behind LeBrun Road the Veteran’s Administration Hospital.

In however, where student dwellings or rented houses occur only in of isolated cases, the rate complaints is much higher Occasionally Amherst officials try to assist students who complain about living conditions or landlord disputes. Drive The ‘‘Mona Amendment” goes into effect on February 2nd. But Gidzinski said that “out of practicality, knowing that relocation could be disruptive to students, I would hesitate to enforce the provisions of the amendment until the end of the semester.’^ Stringer v. Gould, Levitt released his statement on the student fees audit recommending “improved supervision” of fee expenditures, and a system of “acounting and administrative improved controls.” Levitt also said the choice between voluntary or mandatory fees, or a combination, was a decision only the SUNY Trustees could make. The audit also noted that the legislative body of students responsible for spending the fees was elected by a relatively small percentage of the students. But in the cover letter to newly SUNY Chancellor appointed Ernest Boyer, Levitt added: “On most campuses we found the expenditures were proper and the accounting was complete. Here is ample evidence that student organiztions are capable of responsible self-management.” Borenstein noted that in the days that followed, there was near editorial support unanimous throughout the state for tighter control of student fees. In the midst of continuous State on the disruptions University at Buffalo campus in spring of 1970, which included a two week visit by one-third of the Buffalo Police Department, the Erie County District Attorney asked the regular March Grand Jury to probe the causes of the upheavel. When even more violent clashes demonstrations and of followed ’ the invasion Cambodia and the killing at Kent and Jackson State, the jury asked to have its term extended. While the jury was in recess in Heroes.. July, a Buffalo City Councilman filed a resolution in the Common Council calling on the District Attorney to “determine whether the student disorder which swept the campus earlier this year was supported by student activity fees. Meanwhile, the Erie County District Attorney announced an in depth investigation of student fees at the State University at Buffalo. He broadened the probe when subpeonas were issued for student activity fee records in June. October, 1970, the In elected University’s newly Graduate Student Association treasurer released records that indicated his predecessor misappropriated $15,000 in funds After authorization. without hearing from the new treasurer twice, the Grand Jury indicted the former treasurer on 14 counts of larceny (the Grand Jury’s only indictment). The Grand Jury heard testimony from 57 people in all, and issued a long statement which recommended the Trustees establish strict guidelines for use of the fees, greater administrative scrutiny, regular state audits, and speakers from campus be banned unless they have the permission of the college administration, among others. Lastly, the Jury said “the use of student fees for travel for to purposes personal demonstrations that aim to disrupt our judicial system or society is improper and should cease.” The recommendations were immediately disputed by the Student Association. ' —continued from page 2— obtain a tutor through the athletic department and the $5 an hour bill is footed by the school. At Purdue University, 50 to SO percent of the eligible athletes use the tutoring system sometime during their careers and football palyers are the biggest customers. In spite of the formal tutoring systems set up at Big Ten schools, many conference athletes are still incapable of making it all the way to graduation day. At the University of Minnesota, almost half of the athletes queried in a recent study never got a degree. This in spite of the fact that more than two-thirds of the athletes are receiving significant financial aid and all Big Ten athletes must be enrolled in school on a continuous basis. The data at the University of Minnesota indicates that non-revenue sports have a slightly better graduation rate than the more prestigious revenue-producing sports like football and basketball. Minnesota’s academic counselor for athletes admitted that when a prospective player in a revenue sport comes to the University, the sport is probably his main reason for being there. In non-revenue sports, athletes are more likely to be attending the University with academic priorities, he said. Wednesday, 28 January 1976 . The Spectrum .

(CPS) Chinese eduoitors have discovered a problem that haunts their U.S. counterparts as well they are horrified that “people will be leaving the University without being able to read a bo<5k.” - - But where Americans have resppnded with indignation, Chinese educators asking a return to hardheaded curriculum have been criticized for pushing a “bourgeois line” while leading the country down the “revisionist road.” The result has been a shootout between tradition-minded educators and radicals seeking to preserve the changes made in Chinese education during the Cultural Revolution. The revolutionary education system that grew out of upheavals of the sixties emphasizes political activism over academic skills and requires tarm or factory work experience for admission to the universities. Applicants to Chinese universities are now required to serve two years in the armed forces, fields or factories before enrollment. In addition, the number of examinations.given to students have been trimmed and degree requirements slashed so that two or three years of study will lead to a degree. Students also spend some of their school time in “open door schooling” or learning from workers in industry and communes. more Reports from the mainland indicate that no one is expelled for not meeting standards and no one repeats a year. University education is conducted under the maxim that "no class brothers will be left behind.” Education Minister Chou Jung-Hsin loured Chinese campuses earlier, making speeches implying that these practices have resulted in a decline in China’s quality of education. He was joined by the head of one university who allegedly sent a letter lo Mao calling for a change in the education system to half slipping traditional educational standards. China-watchers claim the issue is more complicated than similar fears American educators have had about declining academic standards. They say one of China’s historic problems has been that the intellectuals have been too far removed from the mass of people and their problems. Academic retrenchments during the Cultural Revolution were made to smash that elitism. And reports in so far say that students pushing for the continuation ol China s post-revolutionary education system have the edge. In answer to Chou and other critics of the education system, students have lined university walls with posters denouncing the education minister and conducted midnight meetings to solidify opposition. They’ve been joined by the Party journal, the Red Flag, which has denounced Chou for subverting the revolutionary line. �‘Play It Again, Sam’ "v ' • ; - — - » • hottest bargain used record store is here Buffalo’s ...

OPEN 24 HOURS - J JJ 3234 MAIN STREET A V Charges of “administration interference” with the Legal Aid Clinic's planned off-campus housing survey have been made by students involved in the project. The Clinic hopes to create a substitute for the off-campus housing office in Goodyear Hall. Legal Aid staff member Dave Richmand said the goal of the study is to establish a “computer bank” of information on as many houses in the University area as possible, from which a prospective student tenant may obtain facts on the landlord, condition, location and rent. However, the administration will not release the telephone numbers and addresses of present student tenants from the Office of Admissions and Records so that Clinic workers may conduct interviews. Although these numbers are not listed in this year’s University directory, administrative officials will make them accessible for official business only. Policy decision One student working on the study charged that since many local landlords are also state legislators, the administration is trying to prevent the Clinic from compiling information on them. “This is a policy decision and the University is giving in to pressure from local landlords,” agreed a Student Association spokesperson. Richmond hopes to cover as many as 5,000 houses in the “student ghetto.” When the project is completed, students looking for suitable housing <-ould fill out a form in the Legal Aid office Dave Richmond what describing what kind of house they want distance from campus, how large, what rent range. They would receive in exchange a computer listing with about 15 possible houses fitting those preferences, Richmand said. Richmand said the new service would hopefully work better for students than the present off-campus housing office, which he described as an “apathetic institution” run by the administration. — Attention vibro lovers They will open their doors to us at 7:30 p.m. Vibro-Marking, an identification system which could save your ski equipment from theft, has come to SONY Buffalo.

Wednesday, 28 January 1976 The Spectrum Page seven . . �1 Guest Opinion Lashing out blindly by the Revolutionary Student Brigade Sub Board's Board of Directors stooped to cheap, bullying tactics last week .when it voted to fire UUAB Fine Arts Film Committee Chairperson Dennis Fox should he refuse to cancel showings of the Six movies that remain on the big Board's blacklist. In its determination to bring so-called "popular films" to the University, the Board apparently has not recognized that the very students it so magnanimously seeks to please have made the reinstatement of all eight films one of the most "popular" issues on campus this year. Certainly, after the public outcry condemning its actions, the Board can only look more foolish by lashing out at the Film Committee head. The large number of students who wrote letters to protest about this matter objected precisely to the Board's interference in the internal policy of a duly-chosen committee. They also pointed out the lack of knowledge about film on the part of the eight directors who used scanty information to single out eight foreign films they believed "objectionable." While the directors did evenutally bring back Electra-Glide in Blue and Swept Away, their stubborn insistence on banning six equally important films and firing Dennis Fox if he doesn't comply is an insult to the students Sub Board purports to serve. At this point, before the Board digs itself even deeper into a hole, it would be sensible for the Direcotrs to withdraw and leave this year's film schedule and Film Committee alone. Perhaps their pride might be hurt but at least their credibility will remain intact. For a basic writing course The Faculty Senate's Educational Planning and Policy Committee should be commended for its well thought-out proposal to strengthen the writing skills of incoming freshman. As educators join the media in recognizing the poorly-developed writing habits of presumably well-educated people, it becomes imperative that writing ability once again be stressed at all levels of learning. While at this University, "English Composition" has long ceased to be a required course for freshmen, the limited number of writing sections offered through the English Department cannot accommodate the growing need for this type of instruction. If, as the Faculty Senate Committee suggests, each department gives a Basic Writing Course for freshmen that emphasizes the particular writing skills needed in that area of specialization, the burden of teaching students how to write would be taken out of the hands of the English Department and spread around the entire University where it belongs. Additionally, grading these courses pass/fail only will allow students to learn for the sake of learning without the pressure that often discourages them from taking these necessary subjects. "An atmosphere in which criticism is easily absorbed and put to contructive use" would be created, the committee says The thought of reinstating any University-wide requirements may sound distasteful to a great number of students. However, given that too many students at the college level cannot construct a proper English sentence, and given that this problem must be corrected before a person leaves school, it follows that a Basic Writing Course could not hurt anyone who is required to take it. Fortunately, the Faculty Senate is attempting to make it as appetizing as possible. Vol. 26. No. Permanently out 49 To the Editor.

Chou En Lai, Premier of the People’s Republic of China and Vice Chairman of the Chinese Communist Party, died in Peking at the age of 78. Who was Chou En Lai? And why should we, students here in the U.S., be concerned over his death? He was, as the press has been saying, a great diplomat, and a man who had tremendous influence on events in China and in the world. But after all, there have been many great diplomats and many people who have influenced world events. What set Chou En Lai apart from other world “leaders” was that Chou, from the time of his youth up until his death, was a revolutionary. He was a person who devoted his entire life not only to the emancipation of the Chinese people but to the cause of the working class and oppressed people around the world. Chou was born in 1898, the son of government officials. He grew up during a time of tremendous struggle by the Chinese people. China, a giant country with tremendous resources, had been carved up by foreign imperialists including the British, French and the U.S., each of whom controlled different economic interests in the country. The masses of Chinese people, workers and peasants, lived in miserable conditions under feudal lords who were supported by foreign and Chinese capitalists, like thousands of young people and students at the time, Chou participated in and helped lead the great rebellions, strikes and demonstrations against these conditions. And like many people in China and around the world who were inspired by the Russian revolution of 1917,Chou came to the conclusion that the final goal of the revolution in China had to be socialism, the rule of the working people. Like Mao Tse Tung and many others who took part in the revolutionary movement in China, Chou started to study the works of Marx and Lenin and in 1921 helped form the Communist Parly of China to lead the struggle for revolution and socialism. For close to 40 years the Communist Party, with Mao Tse Tung at its head, led the Chinese people through many struggles until finally in 1949 they succeeded in defeating Chiang Kai Shek who was a puppet of foreign, mainly U.S., imperialists. In 1927, when Chiang seized control of the government and began a massacre of thousands of communists, Chou barely escaped with his life. He was on the Long March in 1934 when the Red Army marched 8000 miles through enemy lines to be able to fight the Japanese invaders in the north of China. Through these and other hardships Chou stood firm and played a key role in leading the movement. And after 1949 he worked without stop to make China a socialist country and to encourage revolutionary struggles in other parts of the world. Unlike our “leaders,” Ford, Rockefeller, Kennedy, etc., who either are capitalists or represent the interests of big business, Chou, Mao and the other communist leaders in China have positions of power only because over many years of struggle, they won the support of the Chinese people. Because they saw that the Communist Party was fighting for the needs and-desires of the masses of people, millions of Chinese workers, peasants and intellectuals joined with the party and many of them laid dowp their lives fighting for the goals the party put forward. This was because the goals of the party, for independence and an end to the system of exploitation, were the same as the goals of the vast majority of the people. Chou En Lai helped lead the fight to bring the working class to power. He also helped lead the fight after the revolution to make sure the working class kept power and to prevent a new class of rulers from springing up. The most famous and the most important example of this was the Great Cultural Revolution from 1966-69. This was a tremendous mass movement of Chinese workers, peasants and students that was led by Mao Tse Tung, Chou En Lai and other members of the Communist Party. Its aim was to remove from power people in the Communist Party and outside it who were using their positions for their own personal advantage and not for the benefit of the people. The movement was aimed at all institutions, culture, and anything else that was seen as promoting capitalist ways and ideas. These changes are still going on in China as the people struggle to do away with all the things left over from capitalism that still remain. Our rulers like to speculate on what will happen now that many of the original leaders of the Chinese revolution are dead or very old. They make it seem inevitable that a new class of oppressors will take power or have already done so. This ignores one basic fact. The Chinese revolution was not made by a small group of people. It was made by millions of Chinese based on their desire to wipe out the conditions they lived under and their willingness to fight for it. Chou and Mao and the other communists were great. leaders because they were able to sum up and focus that desire and give it direction. But even when they are gone, the basic force behind the revolution, the masses of Chinese people, still exists and today there are millions of people who grew up and lived under socialism and will fight to keep it. Chou En Lai stands as an example to the people of China who will carry out that fight and an example to us here in the U.S. where we still have to make revolution. He was a great man not because he had tremendous skill or knowledge, although it was true he had both, but because he used that skill and knowledge in the service of the masses of people, devoting his entire life to the cause of revolution. Because of this, he won the respect and admiration of people around the world. His death is a great loss and will be mourned and remembered everywhere by people who are fighting against oppression and to make revolution.

A few short years ago, Eldridge Cleaver being sought by American law enforcement agencies? for certain crimes he alledgedly committed as a member of the Black Panthers and as an American revolutionary. He applied for and received political assylum in Algeria. Before he fled the U.S., he was believed to be violently anti-white, anti-American and anti-semitic. This past year he returned to the U.S. and was promptly placed in prison for those crimes he is alledged to have committed. From his public statements, it appears as though his political perspective has radically changed. An example of this change was printed in an article Cleaver wrote on the editorial page of the Buffalo Evening News on January 14, 1976, entitled “U.N.: A View From the v Cell.” The chock of this article comes from the opening paragraph, when Cleaver says, “Two aspects of the recent United Nations resolution labelling Zionism as racist shocked and surprised me. Of all the people in the world, the Jews have not only suffered particularly from rascist persecution, they have done more than any other people in history to expose and condemn racism.” He goes on to state: “Generations of Jewish social scientists and scholars have labored long and hard in every field *of knowledge to lay bare and refute all claims of racial inferiority and superiority. To condemn the Jewish survival doctrine of Zionism as racism is a travesty upon the truth.” Cleaver had lived in Algeria, an Arab country, for a few years. The amount of time he spent there was surely enough for him to develop certain opinions of the Arab world, or at the very least, of Algeria. He states his experiences in the next section \ of the article. “Secondly, I am surprised that the Arabs would choose to establish a precedent condemning racism) because it can so easily be turned against them. Having lived for several years among the Arabs, I know them to be among the most racist people on earth. This is particularly true of their attitude towards black people. No one knows this better than black Africans living along the edge of the Sahara. “Once while we were travelling through Bamoko, Mali, a cab driver flew into a rage when we asked him to take us to the Algerian Embassy. When he learned that we actually lived in Algeria, he concluded that we were crazy. ‘Man,’ he said irritably, ‘don’t you know that the Arabs still have black slaves?’ “He was right, although I didn’t find out till later. Many Arab families that can afford it, keep one or t\yo black slaves to do their menial labor. Sometimes they own an entire family. 1 have seen such slaves with my own eyes. “I have the deepest sympathy for the Palestinian people in their search for justice, but I see no net gain for freedom and human dignity in the world if power blocs, because of their ability to underwrite sagging economies for a season, are able to ram through the U.N. resolutions repugnent to human reason and historical fact.” It appears as though what Eldridge Cleaver discovered during his short stay in Algeria, many persecuted minorities in the Middle East have known for centuries. Guest Opinion ; * Samuel M. Prince Helping Planned Parenthood private citizens to own hand guns whose design is primarily for killing people and does kill by Rod Saunders * — Wesley Foundation Director One of the most pressing issues before this country today is the issue of “Criminal Justice!” Many short-sighted and simplistic answers are proposed by legislators, police, judges, and average citizens. Rarely does one see a proposal from a studied source. There have been two major studies in the United States of the Criminal Justice problem. The first, during the Johnson Administration, was labeled “Liberal” in its proposals. But the involvement in Vietnam kept it from being considered. Nixon ran on a platform of “law and order” (though apparently not for himself and his cronies), and instituted a “National Advisory Committee on Crinunal Justice: Goals and Priorities.” This commission was stacked with so-called conservatives, including its chairperson, a Republican ex-governor, t'hey started all over, looked at the facts, and returned with even more “radical” and “liberal” proposal?) because they were convinced it was the only s?he, correct and logical solution. Nixon naturally his own chosen commission. \ There is now a bill before the Senate, SI, which will go in the opposite directipn on almost every issue the two studies proposed. The effect of this bill; if passed, would be to return us to the “Middle Ages” of criminal justice, It would build into the federal criminal code the attitudes of repression and secrecy of the Nixon, et. al. administration. It would limit the press, peaceful protest and demonstrations, and severely punish criminal defendants and protestors. You should become educated on this bill. Write your senator (probably only Javits will listen). L. Harold DeWolf, professor, retired Dean of Wesley Theological Seminary, has spent the last few years of his retirement researching the criminal justice issue in the U.S. and around the world. He has just published Crime and Justice in America (Harper and Row Publishers). The following are some of the proposals from lectures given at the Syracuse Area Pastors School, Oct. 1975. The proposals need to be considered in a total context, not pulled out and hacked at individually. 1. Decent housing for all we have the misdirecting them (for military mostly). especially the 2.

For instance, I hope “they” prove Bigfoot and the abominable snowman and all the rest really Jo exist. And after reading Nicholas Witchell’s book The Loch Ness Story. I am thoroughly convinced that “Nessie" is real after all which, of course, merely confirms something / haVe believed all along. The only real problem tlfat continually plagues people who have seen the creature (or, more probably creatures) is that their reliability as witnesses would be accepted in any court of law, but when their testimonies confront the hallowed ideas of a scientific community, these same witnesses are considered less reliable than children. The first part of The Loch Ness Story covers the history of the creature and the attendant sightings thoroughly. The first recorded sighting is traditionady attributed to a sixth century holy man. Saint Coluipbia and although the incident is legendary, at least it shows that “Nessie" has quite a long history. The history of sightings is too long to cover here, but the amazing thing about all of them is the way they seem to agree with one another- Although there are minor differences in detail (color, gross tonnage, and so on), ad the viewers have apparently Our Weekly Header agreed on major identifying points (long neck, visable humps, and especially the size and shape of The head). It should also be noted that the variety of persons who have seen the creature are as remarkable as the beast itself: priests, soldiers, tourists, visiting the whole spectrum of society. royally USED RECORD OUTLET The second part of the book deals with the history of the search for the Lock Ness beat(s). Although the book went to print prior to the release of the latest photographs, Witched was able to incorporate some of the details of the latest search in The Loch Ness Story. As newer and more accurate sightings are recorded and as special equipment is developed for exploring the murky lake, scientists can, according to the author, look forward to the solution of this age-old puzzle in the near future. The idea of the unknown has scared many and attracted more. As light is cast deeper into the corners of this particular mystery, all who are interestecLwi|l need a guidebook to keep up with its many aspects. The Loch Ness Story by Nicholas Witched, is that book. WELCOME HO — , A. Ear!Hershberger A. Earl Hershberger is a graduate student in Social Foundations and an instructor in Tolstoy College.

To reiterate: pmups Roscny Hill WICK CENTER Recently a two-page missive, authored by S.A., was delivered to the offices of Sub-Board. Though 'I Innocently entitled “An S.A Proposal for Sub-Board I" it bore Httle resemblance to anything quite as reasonable as a proposal. Rather, it was an ultimatum, threatening that if the Board did not adopt-a perspective on U.U.A.B. that was more in own, that they would overturn some if conformance vHth their were seen their way. things until personnel the S.A. further decided that a survey be prepared and distributed which would provide a systematic picture of student tastes. For, In their words, "U.O.A.B..'s sources are a mystery to us.” Three years ago. in cooperation with the University’s Statistics Center, such a survey was implemented. The results confirmed the structure and diversity of U.U.A.B., for two simple reasons. First, the sampling went University-wide and reflected the highly diversified tastes one would expect from a group composed of such a variety of background, age groups, race, gnd politics. (The diversity of this University’s population Came as a shock to "elected” officials who spent all of their time in Norton Hall and were usually elected by less than 30 percent of the student population). Secondly, the survey simply affirmed U.U.A.B.’s feedback which is scarcely a mystery and certainly as mechanism effective a poll of the student body as anything else. Concerts end movies require tickets. Some sell out, some don’t. Experienr.e with this information gives one a very good sense of what tfie student tastes are and this is enforced by the fact that must be accepted if an elite "cultural” minority hopes to gratify itself by showing films that appeal only to it and no one else. Such a policy would scarcely last financially for more than Five or six weeks. The film committee currently under attack, U.U.A.B. films, is beginning its second semester ahead of its income projections. It is quite obvious these people know what they •re doing. Why does S.A. t disagree? S.A. itself is an elite group. They wish to feature their own tastes and those of their peers. It is their vision that they want others to share, not that of a majority of students. The previously mentioned letter from S.A. sent shock waves through Sub-Board I. Two memos were sent by T. H. Van Nortwick on behalf of Sub-Board I. (S.A. to a major extent controls Sub-Board. Would that it were •‘an entity unto itself’ and free from “the control of elected Student representatives!” Then it might better be able to serve a University instead of the whimsical, whinings of purblind despots.) The result was a run of memos denouncing U.U.A.B. its unresponsive and itemizing eight films which were to be removed from their listings.

It is constitutionally open to anyone in the University. It is visible, it is responsive. It responds best to students interested in arts management who come in as volunteers and do small jobs and learn. Through this mechanism chairpersons are established and programs are designed. It is democratic. Under the present system if a minority is ignored it may approach the organization for redress, sans cracked heads. Most importantly, U.U.A.B. is an opportunity for an individual student to express his- or herself in a way that is both self-satisfying and in the service of a University Community. In U.U.A.B. one (earns there is a University Community. It seems that S.A.'s goal is to create a campus culture that is "predominately popular.” I read that as CONFORMIST. They want to provide films and music the way McDonald's provide burgers; familiar, reliable, and without surprises. S.A. believes that culture should be secondary to the majority of student interests- This belies a tragic ignorance, for the interests of the majority of students s an cultural. Each student has come to the University to learn little is learned from the familiar. In their action S.A. is colluding with an entire industry "out there” that exists to exploit the "college market,” driving an endless fix of shit into student brains; one “Heckle and Jeckle Film Festival” after another, one half-assed double-priced rock band after another. It's an industry! It's real! it’s BIG MONEY! And U.U.A.B. is one of the few free agants in the country that can pick somebody no one ever heard of and provide you with the most unexpectedly exciting night you'll ever have at a concert. There dance recital, poetry reading or movie. is nothing elitist about a program which provides both the familiar and the unexpected, the common and the rare, the popular and the unknown. But there is something fascistic about a program that doesn't It's a simple matter of alternatives. There is nothing privileged about an audience that attends a program that isn’t well known. But there's something sad about one that can't The language of the S.A. proposal is not vague and my reactions are not overdrawn. They specifically state "predominately popular,” and they've axed a schedule which already is composed of "predominately popular” fare. Is there room on a university campus for alternatives in programming? Can there be such a thing as an educated cultural minority on a major university campus? If so. shouldn’t it be converted into a Burger King management training center? — * UUAB thanks Ethos and Walt Behnke for allowing gs to reprint, and edit the majority of their January editorial.

This season marks the first time in 37 years that they are fielding a varsity ice hockey team. Through the efforts of Athletic Director R. Bruce Allison, they managed to obtain a berth in the Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference’s Division II. It stands to reason then, that this small school team, comprised of mostly freshmen, would be the dregs of the league, right? Wrong. The Union College Dutchmen are tearing the league apart, having lost just one game, and they are scheduled to play the University of Buffalo Bulls tonight at the Tonawanda Sports Center. It marks the second meeting between the two clubs. The Dutchmen clobbered the Bulls 11-1 in their first encounter on January 9 in Schenectady. They are riding high in the Division II standings, and are waiting to make the Bulls another victim ol their high gear offense. Everything looks towards another Union t victory, except for one factor. Buffalo doesn Bulls feel and dead. The play intend to lay down that they can beat the Dutchmen, and gain their own spot in the Division II playoffs. Checking a must For the Bulls to defeat Union, they are going to have to play very closely, and check the Dutchman skaters as efficiently as they can. “We’re going to have to forecheck well, and play the man,” said rigjit wing Brien Grow. “The first game against Union was our first game back (from vacation), and we only had two practices under our belts.” Coach Ed Wright plans to have his skaters play very tight hockey and skate hard in the offensive zones. “We can beat Union if we forecheck and skate the way we can. We’ve proven we can do that,” said the Buffalo mentor. The Bulls have proven that against the rest of their Division II competition, in which they’ve compiled a 6-2*1 record. But the Dutchmen are probably the cream of the crop in the EC AC II. and the game will most certainly be a tough one. ,, “It’ll be a very fast game. They’re the toughest team in Division 11,” commented Grow. i, 3 i > ni ■ ■■ Opening night jitters Although neither team could open up more tan a two-point lead until the overtime period. Buffalo coach Carolyn Thomas thought the Bulls played poorly. She cited their 27 turnovers, as well as the fact that it was their first game of the year. The next day they overwhelmed Potsdam 56-35, giving Thomas something to be pleased about. “The last ten minutes against Potsdam they really got it together. We had balanced play.” Trapper and O’Malley each had 1 2 points while Pam Tellock had 10. Later, Thomas said that if the two games had been played in reverse order, she thought that Buffalo would have won both games. Swimmers drawn The swimmers were the only Buffalo women’s team to have no success over the weekend, dropping a 70-61 decision to Potsdam. Women’s Athletics Chairman Dr. Barbara Sevier said that although the mermaids were defeated, their overall performance was quite commendable. She noted that nine individual performances by Buffalo swimmers were good enough to qualify for the state championships. Additionally, one diver and the 200 medley and freestyle relay teams also qualified for those championships which will be held at Potsdam on February _ 545: - Basketball v. Fairfield.

The women’s basketball squad lost in overtime to St. Lawrence on Friday before beating Potsdam on Saturday, while the women’s swimmers lost in the last second of their last race to Potsdam. The women’s bowlers continued their season finishing second to Penn State in the RIT Invitational Saturday. Buffalo’s Clyde O’Malley hit a 25-foot shot with about 25 seconds remaining against St. Lawrence, but the Larries came right back with two points of their own to go out in front by two. Then Barb Fislar hit a clutch jump-shot with only two seconds remaining to tie the game tor Buffalo. After a turnover by St. Lawrence, the Bulls had one last chance to ice the game, but Nan Harvey’s hurried shot rolled off the rim at the buzzer. The Larries took advantage ol Buffalo's foul trouble in the overtime. Ann Trapper. Buffalo's leading rebounder and scorer, fouled out. while three other Buffalo players were on the court with four fouls. The Larries also hit all six of their freethrows in the extra period to clinch the win. Ruddy * - Harness the master mind Tire main reason for the Dutchmen’s success has been the coaching of Ned Harkness. a former Detroit Red Wing coach and general manager. He has taken his NHL experience and coupled it with his vast college background (20 years at RPI and Cornell) to provide the Dutchmen with a keen insight into the game. Harkness is the big man in Union College hockey, and Buffalo goaltender John Moore realizes it, saying that “he’s done a great job with the team.” But Grow doesn’t think that Harkness’ coaching will have any effect on the Bulls' performance. “Union in just another team. Harkness is a big factor to them, but he’s no big deal to us." What may prove to be a big deal to the Bulls is the slate of their health. According to trainer Dennis Kasprzyk, many of the Bulls are playing with minor injuries, which may or may not have some bearing on their performances. Listed among the skating wounded are RW Rick Costello (hip pointer). Fred Sutton (torn knee cartilage), and co-captain Paul Songin (severely bruised thigh). But if the Bulls can check as enthusiastically as they think, their optimism may be matched by their goal total and provide them with a big win over the Union College.Dutchman. .

Thus, the responsibility foi pioposed increase in tuition rests with Carey, who during his gubernatorial campaign, pledged that he would "liold the line” on tuition and room rents. The specific line on higher education in the I inventor's budget implied that a tuition increase was planned by SUNY to leduce the gap between private and public education costs, and that the (inventor took these plans into consideration in the formation of his budget. Tempering his stance A Carey aide contacted hy the Student Association of the State University (SASUI slated that “the (.overnor is tempering his stance" on holding down tuition. Another Carey office spokesperson admitted to SASH that the false statement “damages the Chancellor’s credibility and places the Trustees in a bad light." According to this official, the sentence should not have appeared in the document and did so through a “mlx-up.” SASU strongly opposes any student lee hikes, but a spokesperson for its legislative staff said he was “pleased" to see that SUNY was not responsible for originating the hikes SASII officials aie incensed at the Governor's retreat from his campaign promise to SI'NY students.

SASU claims that lire increases will “deny thousands of present and future students from obtaining a college education."

SASU tears the hardest hit will be next year's seniors, who will not be eligible for new. higher TAP awards.

Jackalone charged that Carey “made a promise to the students, channelled through SASU. in order to gain their support." and he is now letting them down. Jackalone feels there will be serious “questions" from many, should Carey run for re-election. “I suppose he had no political choice,” he added, pointing out that Cfcjey’s alternatives were to cut something else in the stale budget or raise taxes. I union increases. important to - Bundy aid Jackalone said the questions of higher tuition and budget cuts damaging quality education are of equal importance and both should concern SASH. but that “it will take a small miracle" for the outlook on either to change. SASH officials also question state priority for higher education when both SHNY and the City University of New York (CUNY | liave been asked in Carey's budget to cut millions of dollars and increase tuition while the stale's private colleges receive over SXO million a year in direct institutional aid. Included in this figure is over S55 million in “Bundy Aid." which is awarded on the basis of degrees granted by the institution. No consideration is given to whether or not the students getting the degrees are residents of New York state. Reconsideration of this funding has been strongly urged by SASU in light of “the systematic dismantling of public higher education which is currently facing us." �Fee history the first time organized disruptions within SUNY, and widespread turmoil on campuses throughout the nation.

That year, more -than 30 bills considered anti-student in nature were filed in the state legislature. “However, even in response to the relatively minor disruptions as compared to what would come, legislators and taxpayers were asking where the money for these leaflets, and demonstartkms, buses was coming from.

By spring of 1970, twenty states had approved several of these measures, ten states had measures vetoed, defeated, or supported buses to Washington. Indeed, student activity fees provided a convenient source for all related strike activities.” While an uneasy quiet settled over most of the nation’s campuses the following semester the State University at Buffalo sought to gain political capital. “Continued anti-student backlash, coupled with a misunderstanding of the nature of the mandaotry student fee. made it the perfect target for groups that wished to take revenge on students who had destroyed a public university in New York throughout the preceding year. An easily excited, conservative upstate New York population believed what they read about the uses of the student activity fees at the State University campuses and was outraged. “It was the perfect issue on which to vent their anger; kill the source that was again the sene qf disruptions centered around the demands of black athletes, the war, ROTC, and defense-related research.

Universities cancelled classes for protest marches and large mass demonstrations on campuses. In new York State, small-scale rioting occurred on at least four campuses of the State University and signs of what was going r | an unclear issue, whether the money was actually state money or not, served to complicate the issue. “Student governments were moving to the political left in the activities they wished to fund with student fees; student newspapers were moving to the left in the issues they editorially advocated; students wanted to tee fee money spent not on social clubs and mixers, but on inner-city breakfast programs, community action groups and other organizations aimed at changing the fiber of the American society, or at least the expectation level of the American society. The more conservative public could not accept this and, angered by the disruptions in spring of 1970, the student activity fee became the logical focal point of a public backlash.” i •■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•■•I MEAT TACOS | Buy 2—Get 1 Free Pitcher of Beer $1.50 (our reg. low price) | TIPPY'S TACO HOUSE 2351 Sheridan 838-3900 across from Putt-Putt g - coupon expires Fab. 2, 1976 I NOTE: The Report!ng/Writing Workshop will meet Tuesday at 7 p.m. in 355 Norton Hall.

Nuclear reactors in commercial operation today will require at least 1.5 million years to “cool down” to safe radiation levels, according to a New York (NYPIRG) Group Public Interest Research investigation conducted by physicist Marvin Resnikoff and nine student NYPIRG members. Nuclear industry officials, including members of the Atomic Industrial Forum (AIF), said they couldn’t dispute the NYPIRG finding point by point until they had examined it in detail, but their initial reaction was that the findings are “incredible and somewhat unbelievable.” The industry has estimated a maximum period of 200 years for reactor cool-down. AIF spokesperson David Ha ward admitted, however, that if the study’s estimate of 1.5 million years for cool-down is accurate, the effect on the growth of nuclear energy in the United States would be “very serious.” Confidence Haward pointed out, however, that NYPIRG’s is the first study he has seen which estimates the cooling off period at more than 200 years. He added that AIF is currently working on a survey of its own on all aspects of nuclear decommission that will be released in the spring. Resnikoff said he and NYP1RG have “absolute confidence” in their conclusions. He added that the study, which took an entire semester to compile and research, will be submitted to the U.S. nuclear regulatory and research organizations. Charles Thorripas Jr., director of the Nuclear Science and Technical Facility, said he has “serious doubts about the validity of the figures” in the NYP1RG report. “I have never heard anyone talk v , seriously about such a long peribd of time,” he claimed Harmful radiation Resnikoff explained that nuclear reactors are built to last for about 40 years, and then be retired from service or decommissioned. The radioactive fuel is removed from the reactor he explained, isolating from the environment any materials which contain harmful long-lasting radiation. While some small experimental reactors with % generating capacities of 5 megawatts or less have been decommissioned, all of the large commercial reactors are still operating. Some of these reactors, he said, have generating capacities of 3,000 megawatts. Resnikoff charged that the nuclear industry has grossly underestimated the time it takes the decommissioned materials to lose their harmful radiation. He said the studies prepared by the industry failed to take into account the presence of Nickel-59, a radio nuclide (species of atom), in the reactor components. “Some of the radio nuclides require a short time to decay, but Nickel-59 has a half-life of 80,000 .... years,” he said. He further claimed that the costs of isolating these dangerous materials for over a million years will be “enormous.” NYP1RG Executive Director Donald Ross predicted that as a result of Resnikoff’s research, “future estimates of decommissioning costs” will have to be “closely scrutinized.” He believes that if the cost of nuclear waste disposal is too high, “we should look elsewhere for our energy needs.” Moruiay, 26,Jajiuary.!|.976 .

The big networks are perhaps the worst of large-scale mental perpetrators conditioning. Relaxed and unaware, as many as 50 million Americans sit back and feast upon a banquet of situation comedies, soap operas, mindless game sitting shows and variety extravaganzas ducks for the commercial pitch at 10-minute intervals. The rare, first-rate specials and high-quality shows are too few and far between. In the Buffalo area, T.V. viewers pick up, on the average, eight channels. WNED-TV (Channel 17) is the sole oasis in this desert of commercial nonsense. Publicly-funded and therefore under no editorial pressure from commercial sponsors, Channel 17 lives up to its reputation as a true, “educational network.” WNET-TV is the only station in the area which takes more than ratings into consideration in program scheduling. The selection process is a complicated procedure, but one which balances station-management and subscriber preference. Subscribers (those viewers who make an annual donation to the station) are periodically mailed a list of potential programs and are asked to “vote” for the programs of their choice. This feedback is a valuable and important factor as the station management decides on program purchasing and scheduling.

Forty years ago the concept of T.V. would have been laughed at (and was), but since its introduction to the United States in the mid-1940’s, the world has witnessed technological this medium’s rapid improvement. Once a fuzzy, 8-inch blue-light luxury, T.V. has become a living color, remote-controlled, works-in-a-drawer necessity. “People nowadays require the electronic pablum that television provides,” says Ralph Fast, sociologist at Niagara University. “In a society replate with unknowing introverts, television remains a person’s only contact with the outside world. Sad as it may seem, it is much easier to watch the old boob-tube than to go to a play, visit friends, or even read the newspaper,” Fast commented. To the average person, T.V. provides as much entertainment, information, and indirect social contact as is needed. But is it really sufficient? Are T.V. “addicts” willfully shutting out from their lives other, perhaps more important means of communication?

The accalimed Masterpiece Theatre is one of Channel 17’s most successful programming ventures. Perhaps the best feature of all is that WNET-TV is commercial-free.

Straus & Girous (621 pages, $ 12.S0) I bis Larry Woiwode's second novel, has all the elements of u family chronicle. Unlike the chronicles of the Adams family Which are being handed to us this bicentennial year as, those of the archetypal American family. Woiwode's evokes the succeeding generations of the Neumiller family. Immigrating from Germany to North Dakota in 1881, Otto Neumiller homesteaded and expanded his land holdings in the halcyon days of dry-land wheat farming, only to be caught in the drought of the late 1910’s and the which ravaged the northern Plains states. His “common sense" and resourcefulness kept financial catastrophe away, but at the same lime he incurred the hatred of everyone else in the small farming community who was going bankrupt. But all this is in the past. The novel opens known later as C.J.C., the as his son Charles patriarch of the Neumiller family in Illinois comes hack alone to wash him and dress him, to build his coffin and to bury him. It is not Charles but Charles' son Martin... Martin's wife Alpha . . . Martin and Alpha’s eldest son Jerome . . . It is Jerome’s brother Charles whom the novel revolves about.

Generational conflicts and religious conflicts (both personal and societal!, the rivalry of siblings and the emptiness of commercialized death all form part of the "reality" which Woiwode attempts to capture in his novel. I he structure of the book itself is a result of the narrator's own struggle to establish the subjectivity oil past experiences with the same concreteness and immediacy with which the image or physical aspect of past experiences can be remembered. Woiwode suggests an analogy between "remembering" and “lookingat photographs" by subtitling the novel “A family Album." The problem faced by the narrator (and the reader) is very much the satire as that which troubles Marie. Tine of Charles' sisters. Looking through the Neumrller family albums. Marie tries lo recall herself among the constellation of facts preserved in the snapshots; "fvery week she paged through the family albums, all three ol them. hoping lo find some clue lo her makeup and emotional texture at that time.

For Charles himself “there was nothing in (his memories] of who his grandfather was, or what [Charles] felt for him." The memories (and the photos) preserve none of the non-gestalt elements of experience; it is these elements which are destroyed “in time" (“by time,” some would say). As Douglas Davis remarks in the latest Enquire. “a photograph is daily life. To look at it is 1 not to in very complex ways escape reality; it is to create reality." If to look is to create, then so too is remembering a creative act. Woiwode’s recognition of the creative or fictive quality of "remembering is what gives the narrator and his narrative an ever increasing resonance throughout the novel. The narrator thinks back and sees himself as a stranger, as a non-specific and impersonal figure in the past, with no more specificity than any other figure in his past. Given a matrix of physical data he then proceeds to create (through fiction) the and personal intentionality of the he creates the experience. And because situation he himself Is a stranger like any of the other figures in his past, he can create their intentionalities as subjective well. Beyond the Bedroom Wall is more than a presentation of facts from which the reader can construct a reality and inject intentionality (of a cultural or critical norm) It is the struggle on the part of the narrator (and on the part of the reader) to create a viable present out of the past, to create experiences which fill in and give meaning to a constellation of memories t of facts). This is a fiction born out of the narrator's struggle to remember his past; it is an attempt to create a past which establishes the intentionality which, in turn, gave form to his own present existence. It is a fiction which stands as the narrator’s final recovery of his earlier emotional reality as well as the reality of his present existence.

Page five <>fiZ ieoTeceH �EditPrial Correction Moving backwards control the purse-strings of NYPIRG by withholding approval of the organization's contract with the Student Association is actually part of a subterfuge for taking control of mandatory student fees out of the hands of students. In the six years The Ketter administration's determination to that Robert Ketter has served as President, the University has seen a student body that has taken an active role in Friends conservative administration. When the mandatory activity fee was established in the late 1960's, the Board of Trustees authorized the student body at each state-operated campus, either directly or through duly-elected representatives, to set up programs of an educational, social, cultural, or recreational nature. The guidelines were worded loosely to allow students pretty much free reign in spending the fees. However, an anti-student gentiment grew across the state, and as student governments began using their money for more radical activities that challenged the existing social structure, outraged conservatives attempted to chip away at this source of student power. At this University in particular, students elected to spend the bulk of their activities fees on health care, community action, consumer advocacy, cooperative ventures, and the student press, the very areas that are currently under attack by the Ketter administration. And Ketter makes no secret of his plans to extend his sphere of influence even further. For one thing, he means business when he questions the fiscal independence of student corporations such as NYPIRG and The Spectrum and students would be taking great risks if they didn't prepare for any tricks Ketter might have up his sleeve. The important thing to remember is that no one on this campus has unlimited power. If the administration is clearly outstepping its bounds by infringing on the right of students to determine how mandatory fees are spent, then students must challenge its actions. Legally, as long as it has been determined that the expenditures fall within state guidelines. it doesn't matter whether the students take every penny of on activities fees and spend it on one giant beer blast or projects that benefit students as consumers and socially-conscious citizens The Spectrum Monday, 48 Editor-in-Chief apologizes for any personal slight to Ms. Laub as well as Sny public misunderstanding.

Larry I iirinaii I’ai Kyan Mark Chau-n I’au! Srhtrfikhartl Sheila llaiihm �Guest Opinion Another name : To the Editor by Publicity Committee Women’s Studies College On October 31, 1975, President Robert Keller removed five WSC courses from the computer. Those courses are; Women in Contemporary Society (213), the evening division (214), Women's Art 'Studio (221), Women in Photography (199-200), and Women’s Automcchanic (223). All five courses were all women's classes, and Ketter used the pretense of their alleged illegality to deny women of the educational benefit of all women’s classes. As of January 12, 1976, these courses are back in the computer. But they are re-instated with the condition of open enrollment. Since this is a change from Women’s Studies College’s struggle to maintain the integrity of these courses, this column lays out the rationales for our decision to open our courses to male enrollment. WSC offered all women’s courses almost from the beginning of its existence. The all women’s format grew out of our practice; we found it to be the most effective way to create quality education for women. All women’s classes are aimed at the neglected realities of women's lives, and at the need to develop a social analysis that encompasses the diversity of women’s lives. In these classes, women work together to learn skills historically denied to them. The all women’s format provides a space free from the ingrained sexist relations between men and women. In such an environment, women can share their experiences as women, and come to understand them as part of a social context. Because sex differences are not in the foreground, women can examine the differences among them that are based on race, class and sexuality. Despite the success of our courses in meeting women’s needs, the administration has attacked WSC’s selective use of all women’s classes since the fall of 1974. By January I, 1975, President Ketter was forced to approve the selective use of all women’s classes through the pressure of student demand. The sole stipulation of Ketter's public approval was that each course demonstrate the education validity of its all women’s format. In May 1975, the Division of Undergraduate Education approved all five classes on the basis of educational raionalcs provided by WSC. However, in the summer of 1975, with our student support away, the administration attempted to revoke the concession made to student demand and the demonstrated validity of the courses. The administration invoked the sex discrimination legislation known as Title IX. and claimed that our practice was illegal. After serious consideration and consultation with legal counsel, WSC maintains that the five all women’s classes are in complete accord with the spirit and intent of Title IX. It is legislation designed for women, not to be used against us. and one of its central provisions calls for affirmative action measures to “redress the effects of past discrimination." WSC’s all women’s courses constitute such affirmative action. They are an educational method that works against the historical oppression of women. Further, the administration’s misuse of this legislation is clear, it chose to use Title IX against WSC, and ignores the widespread sex discrimination on this campus in such areas as athletics and faculty. WSC's position on the nature and implementation of Title IX is strong. According to legal counsel, nine out of ten lawyers agree with our interpretation; and our arguments for the necessity of affirmative action measures which might include selective enrollment in courses was endorsed by the Faculty Senate, student support, hundreds of letters from all over the country, and thousands of signatures on petitions. Nonetheless, the five courses were removed from the computer. When representatives of WSC met with Ketter before Thanksgiving to demand the re-instatement of these courses, Ketter noticably backed away from his weak legal position, and again raised the issue of the educational validity of these classes. By constantly shifting from an untenable legal position to an equally untenable educational argument, the administration confused the issues, and simply refused to deal with the serious considerations involved. In this spirit, Ketter announced his final decision to “eliminate such courses in this University" and claimed that the “legal and educational bases for the decision” were “clear.” At that time, the semester was nearing its end and crucial student support would be absent from the campus. Ketter stood on his power, and refused to re-instate the courses. He remained unresponsive to the students he is supposed to serve, the faculty who arc supposed to advise him, and the wide range of national supporters who wrote hundreds of letters. At one meeting Ketter directly stated that the University is not a democratic institution, but is an autocratic body. In short, the needs of people are secondary to the power of the administration. Given these conditions. WSC faced a dilemma. The courses are the core of our program, and their all women's format are the basis of their quality. Ketter would listen to neither argument or support. Should we offer the courses with open enrollment or lose them entirely? Since their all women's format is crucial, how could we offer them otherwise? After a long process, WSC decided to offer the courses. We felt that it is necessary to continue to meet the needs of students on this campus. Only the availability of these courses would meet this goal and the only way to make them available was to open them to men. We also despite the problems felt that of male participation, the program could grow in other ways and the courses could create ways of continuing to meet the needs of women within a mixed environment. In our letter to Ketter, we made it clear that we maintain the right to all women’s classes and that we opened the courses only under the pressure of the administration’s irresponsible autocratic methods. We re-affirm our right and intention to continue to fight for educational goals and methods that meet women’s needs. Wu qmd It is chorking to see that the State University at Buffalo, noted for its lack of student unrest, is about to put this on the line with the Board of Trustees’ proposal on Campus Security power. Currently this school’s Campus Security officers are termed “Peace Officers;” a term which I must say they deserve highly because of their fine job of keeping things cool within the Unrveisrty community. So why change the status of these men while their responsibilities remain the same? We do not know how this system will work. I think I can speak for most of the dormitory students when I say that I have felt satisfied and secure with the protection and rights given to ns here at EBicott. I’m sure students at other dorms feel likewise. No one wants to risk at least a mental separation between the protected and the protectors. People are known to change personalities when they stand behind a gun. For the sake of the students, the peace officers themselves, as well as the whole school community; let ns continue to work together, as those who want peace with those who to bring peace for all. represent peace - ... Mike Kupnjmnow Rush hour revisited To the Editor. About two yean ago, while applying to colleges, I decided that I wanted to get away from the rat race of a big city and the crowded subways and buses Somehow I ended up here in UB, but I'm afraid that I haven't traveled too far from the everyday rash hour and standing on a public vehicle I have accepted, that living on the new campus meant a frequent, daily bus ride, back and forth from the Main Street Campus Somehow the problem of the buses seem to have progressively gotten worse. This term, yellow school buses have replaced the more comfortable and luxurious coach and Blue Bird buses. It seems that even with this stretching of our school budget, there are less vehicles on the road. The crowds waiting at the bus stops, seem to be growing m sire, instead of accommodating us on a more frequent and helpful | schedule, we are squashed on, with barely enough room to breathe. In the situation where over 100 students have to catch a specific bus for a dans, and only a limited number of students can fit on the one. available bus, everyone pushes and shoves. This is reminiscent of a New York subway. This poshing and squeezing creates a lot of bad feelings I will accept that our budget is tight and times are truly hard, but we as students are people who deserve a pleasant sort of atmosphere for Irving and learning. We are paying for it. It is not only stuffy and unpleasant being shoved onto a bus around four times per day. but it is also unsafe for so many people to be in such a confined area traveling on the icy roads Isn't there anything we can do?

There would be too many repercussions for years to come if they left.” Wright does not disagree with Spectrum For the 560 vociferous fans attended the Unversity of Buffalo’s hockey game last Friday night, the evening proved to be both an exciting and rewarding experience. It was rewarding in that the Bulls crushed visiting New England College 9—1, and the motives behind Goulet’s excitipg because the game had a thinking. IN fact, the Buffalo little bit of everything.

Wolstenholme scored his second goal of the game at 12:31, after Ron Reisweber had put the BUlls in front 2-0 on a 20 foot slapper through legs. Stevenson’s Wolstenholme’s tip of a Paul Songin pass was followed by two of Haywood’s goals, and an Ed Patterson tally. In the game’s final frame both Haywood and Wolstenholme completed their hat tricks, along with a Jack Kaminska goal near the end of the game. “Some people are just lucky, I modest guess,” said a Wolstenholme afterwards. “Tonight was just one of those nights where it went in. It doesn’t necessarily mean that you played your best game.” There are few people tough, that will argue that the match was not one of the Bulls’ better efforts. In addition to outshooting New England 51—11, they primed themselves for a tough match on Union against College Wednesday.

From coach Michael’s point of view, “the Sooners will not take the Bulls lightly.” In spite of domineering Oklahoma’s and impressive accomplishments, this contest could not have come at a more opportune time for the Bulls. Sporting an overall record of 6-4, the Bulls have actually better than their performed record suggests.

(NYPIRG) has been withheld by the University administration. Buffalo representatives of NYPIRG. independent an statewide student corporation, had been negotiating with SA officials since last summer to come up with a contract amenable both groups. When the to document was finally completed late last fall, it was forwarded to Assistant Vice President for Anthony Student Affairs Lorenzetli. According to Lorenzetti, the contract contained a number of “substantiae problems” and he sent a copy (o SUMY Counsel Walter Rdihan for an opinion as to whether expenditures of mandatory student fee monies as outlined under specific provisions of the NYPIRG contract fall within SUNY Board of Trustees guidelines. Lorenzetti also passed on the contract to President Robert Ketter who expressed several objections in a memo to the Assistant Vice President dated December 16,1975. student body He added that he would probably have no objections to the contract if NYPIRG specified projects it was planning that would directly benefit students here. , feel, members NYPIRG however, that the administration is .trying to manipulate student control over their fees. “REFs are a way to keep control. Students get so concerned over the issue of money that they can't operate or advance. They don’t want to take risks,” Siegel said. She said Ketter is afraid the contract gives certain power to students over their money which “the administration does not want to lose.” , The contract calls for the payment of S25,000 by SA to NYPIRG in five installments to SS.000 beginning October IS, No difference Siegel said NYPIRG wants to 1975.

The question must be considered individually ‘Loose’ wording campus.” Ketter also took issue with the on each “loose" wording of several of the contract. Item 2, sections for example, says. "NYPIRG recognizes its basic responsibility to the students at jSUNY Buffalo) and agrees that it will keep student interests in mind formulating projects. while Whenever possible, the projects developed by NYPIRG will relate to student needs and desires.” Claiming that this might allow NYPIRG to undertake projects that would not necessarily relate to student needs here. Ketter told The Spectrum Wednesday night that the use of mandatory fees collected at this University must be directly identifiable to the � Technicalities Other items Kelter interpreted as illegal were SA's agreement to arrange office space for NYPIRG staff and a provision for granting academic credit to students for working on NYPIRG projects. Siegel noted that NYPIRG is perfectly willing to make any technical amendments to the contract hut that the administration will not negotiate with the organization. "Our capacity hasn’t changed.

After lunch, at the College’s house at 264 Winspear, those present will hopefully break up into Men’s Support Groups for discussion. The College has operated a Men’s Studies program over the last few years. A course entitled ’’Men’s Roles In Recent American Fiction” has been a launching pad forT(he formation of a number of the men’s groups. 'Supportive interaction' College F spokesperson Harold Meyerowitz said that many of the men involved in the groups have found them to be an effective way to deal with their lives as men in a society where it is difficult to achieve social, economic and emotional fulfillment. In addition, he said, many of the men discovered that they had common feelings about their experiences in support of these goals, and that the groups have been an of outlet for expressing feelings as well as gaining an understanding their lives as men. Meyerowitz continued that the groups have focused less on providing intellectual perspectives than on providing supportive interaction for chaging and dealing with social roles that men have been conditioned to play.

To answer the second question first, the SUNY Buffalo Council is comprised primarily of Western New York businessmen who have the power to deny or approve any space allocations on campus. In addition, the body can draw up regulations governing the conduct of students and approve major plans for the University. IN effect, a College Council is like a of miniature SUNY Board for which sets its policy Trustees local campus.

He felt the Jlowever, he said an 82 percent reduction in state funding for University health care services to be substituted with monies from a student fee is “a terrible idea.” Services remain the same He said the services would remain about the same, but feels if there is a fee, it should be “a supplement and not a substitute.” He fears students would have “no say, no control” over what is done, with their health fee money. Campagna noted gloomily that a fee is “to thirik there won’t be just fooling ourselves.” Rubinstein, Director of of the Student Association of the State University (SASU). calculates that a fee of S30-S35 per student would save SUNY S5.5 million next year. “The University’s been hit pretty hard,” he said. “A health fee would free a vast sum of that could be used money Todd Information University of at)out $5 per ' memo further The recommended that each campus “would be authorized to utilize from campus-related funds elsewhere.” i student. Both Rubinstein and SASU Women's basketball Strategies change for the new season by Joy dark Staff Writer Spectrum With ten returnees to the women’s basketball team including a healthy Anne Trapper, coach Carolyn Thomas is having a hard time choosing a starting five. “We have all the things it takes,” she said. “It’s just a matter of getting good combinations.” Trapper, a 6’1” senior, was injured in last year’s first game and was unable to play the rest of the year. Without her scoring, rebounding and defense, the Bulls had to develop an outside game to replace Trapper’s exceptional inside play. Although Trapper has the ability to dominate the game, Thomas says she’s more of a team player. “She’ll distribute the play and set up shots,” Thomas said. “She doesn’t take many shots just to take a shot.” Senior Patty Dolan, Junior Barb Fislar and Sophomore Lynne Azzaro are the leading candidates for the forward spots. Dolan is an outstanding rebounder (she led the team in rebounding last year) with a quick release and plays solid defense. Azzaro moves towards the basket well while Fislar, a transfer from Buffalo State, adds good shooting and strong inside play. Clyde and Frazier Among those vying for the guard positions are junior Clyde O’Malley, senior Pam Tellock, and sophomores Gina Frazier and Nan Harvey. Frazier and Harvey will be counted on for outside shooting. Tellock moves with the ball well and has good body control. O’Malley is slated to direct the offense, and continue her tqpgh defensive play from last year. Sandy Eynon will serve as Trapper’s back-up, and Thomas has a lot of praise for the 5’8” sophomore. “Sandy is the most improved player on the team and she’ll give Anne pretty good relief.’’ Thomas commented Thomas plans to change her strategy from last year’s zone defense. “We’re going to have more player-to-player defense.” she declared. “We’re going to press a lot harder and force more mistakes.” She also intends to fast-break more than last year. In spite of a tough schedule. Thomas is optimistic about this season. “We’re in good condition, and we’re looking forward to having a pretty good season.” she staled.

Kiefer emphasized that his losses are directly related to sales made by the Student Pharmacy. However, he fell that the small pharmacy in the Medical Center on Bailey Avenue and Highgate has probably suffered greater losses than his store because it deals almost solely with prescription drugs In a decision to be made possibly next Tuesday, President Robert Ketter is expected to clarify the position of the Student Pharmacy in terms of its funding, directors and educational value. Contingent upon this decision is the interning of eight pharmacy students as clerks in the Student Pharmacy. All pharmacy students must work six months in a drugstore or a hospital to obtain their degrees. Kiefer feels that work in the Student Pharmacy would not be as valuable an experience for pharmacy majors as working in a regular drugstore. “This experience is practically worthless." he said, “because these students would be dealing solely with other students. Most pharmacy problems are elderly people, with some of whom are schizophrenics or very depressed people, types of people with whom there is no contact m a university situation." “Students working in the Student Pharmacy would not know how to deal with this type ot situation." he continued. “In addition," he said, “we won't nil any criplions from Welfare.

University students still shop there.” An employee of Cavages, who wished to remain anonymous, said that “it is a very touchy situation, but there has been little or no change in volume of sales from last semester until now.” There has been no harassment of the store by students, except for the window-breaking and telephone wire clipping incidents of last semester. "Students who usually buy records in the Coop rarely come to Cavages anyway,” the employee said.

So far, three students have been treated and released from University Health Service while one unidentified student will undergo X-rays to determine the extent of his injury. All four casualties resulted from falls on the trecherous sidewalks around campus. Maintenance officials say they have been working “furiously” to control the icy situation, but due to additional snowfall and cutbacks in personnel, their progress has been slow. The new snow, according to one maintenance man, is “freezing over the salt already dropped.” Dr. MLuther Musselman, Acting Director of University Health Service, said that besides the four injuries that have already been reported, he expects more in the future. He said the number of injuries is “significant but not huge,” but added, “it’s pretty bad. I almost killed myself (on the ice).” Many students contacted by The Spectrum classified the situation as trecherous, and one student said he injured his back while walking between Harriman Library and Norton Union. Extreme caution was offered as the only solution. ' University ten 0 Four students reinstated Four of the five students suspended last year as a result of Attica-related sit-in at Hayes Had demanding the release of student activity funds for buses to an Alnny rally, have been reinstated into the University community. Ismael Gonzalez, Elliot Sharp, Paul Ginsberg and Gary Gleba were all given six month suspensions by University President Robert Ketter. Charles Reitz, another student involved in the incident, was suspended for one year despite the recommendations for more lenient treatment by the University Committee for the Maintenance ofPublic Order. The Committee prescribed suspensions of six months for Reitz, Gleba and Ginsberg,and suggested six months probation for Gonzales and Sharp. Charges against Keith Parsky, who had been arrested at a subsequent demonstration at Security for dismissal. headquarters, were Civil charges were also brought against the students, ranging from criminal trespass to assault. Ail of the charges except criminal trespass were dropped by lodge Samuel Green. Gonzalez and Reitz were acquitted of all charges, and charges against the others (Ginsberg, Gleba, Sharp) were dropped by the District Attorney. added that he feels that it would be wrong to yield to pressure. Ginsberg stated that he did not know if he would take similar actions in the future. “Most people didn’t expect anything as intense as what happened in Hayes, and didn’t know what they were getting into,” he said. “Although I have no proof, I think that Campus Security is keeping surveillance over me,” Gonzales claimed. Ginsberg concurred, but emphasized that they cannot prove this allegation. Plans for redress against Campus Security, Ketter, or the University are vague at this time, according to Gonzalez. Ginsberg said that he. Sharp and Gleba cannot bring suit due to a document that they signed conditional to dropping their charges. Harassment Neither have felt any academic pressure from their professors upon their return to classes, they said. “I’ve been treated just as any other student in the school,” Ginsberg said. “None of the Security officers ever identified themselves as cops,” Gonzalez asserted.

Brody defined health as “a state of both physical and social well being.” "Health is not simply the absence of disease, or the difference between life and death,” Brody remarked. “Health is measured by an individual’s ability to master a certain stage of life. In other words, his ability to master his expected role in life. Health is also relative to an individual’s work potential. After an individual begins to “slow down” he is considered “aged.” To a 65. laborer, this happens after age 40. To a surgeon it happens at age he may After a person feels he is unable to work as well as he used to, begin to feel unneeded and useless. Loneliness This is where a person’s mental and emotional health may affect the his physical health. Interpersonal relationships, particularly among aged, arc a crucial aspect of an individual s well-being. In Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, a recent flood disaster area, the aged expressed great tear “To of ending up in a nursing home, after having lost their own homes. staying only of out hope and his family his friends are an older person, home,” Brody explained. Brody indicated that one out of every five elderly persons today end up in a nursing home, and out of these people, 20% are unmarried and 40% never had children. Brody believes that an unhappy or lonely background contribues to ill health. “The number of people in with hospitals today who are unmarried, and who have problems of people than the number family or friends, is tremendously higher who come from happy backgrounds. of a nursing Non-medical factors “There is a series of generic, sociological, and man-made factors is which determine health,” according to Brody. First, an individual more groups ethnic are his ethnic Certain mold. directly affected by susceptible to diseases than, others. Blacks for example, are more susceptible to sickle-celled anemia, and less likely to contract malaria. People of Mediterranean descent are susceptible to diabetes more than others. Brody also mentioned the importance of personality mold, family background, and “man-made” stresses. Factors such as marriage, divorce, friendships and children have direct effect upon personality of a job. forced mold. Man-made “life stresses” such as pollution, loss definite effect retirement, low income and high medical bills, have well-being. and upon a person's health Brody concluded his 60-minute lecture by suggesting that society's mental institutions give equal consideration to social services and health as to medical research and service. “Health problems cannot be effectively dealt with until social, economic and emotional problems example, it a woman are treated along with medical diagnoses For does not slop with her problem with contusions, enters the emergency husband, who the treatment of her contusions. Her real problem is her beat her." "The cost of National Health Insurance has skyrocketed, jumping the from S2J0 per month in 15 to $500 per month today, and yet health of the American people has not improved,” This is because not enough attention has been given to social services. We need social workers and nurses as much as we need doctors and medication, Brody charged. Friday, 23 January 1976 . The Spectrum .

We do not feel this is the case. Film Fox and other Dennis the past semester Chairperson Committee members have worked hard to balance mass-entertainment films which can also be seen in commercial theaters with films rarely shown outside the University, but which have attracted much notice from critics and students elsewhere. Officials of SA and Sub Board have pointed to the film series run by the Community Action Corps as an example of the sort of films UUAB should be presenting. We must point out, however, that CAC is showing films primarily to raise money for a number of worthy causes, rather than trying to present a well-balanced film program. We do not think that UUAB should compete with CAC to show the same mass-appeal films, even though some SA officials seem to feel It should. The two groups should rather cooperate with each other and the Inter-Residence Council (IRC) to provide a wide range of films to suit varied tastes.

We should point out that a Swedish film, Scenes From a Marriage, was the second-best attended film shown by UUAB last semester.

Lina Wertmuller's Love and Anarchy, a previous film by the director of the "objectionable” Swept Away, drew well when it showed here last semester. A previous film by the director of Zazie Dans Le Metro, Louis Malle, was also extremely successful has when shown here two years ago.

Few people realize that the UUAB Fine Arts Film Cpmmittee is not just another commercial promoter of films. The committee itself has a responsibility to fill a gap in the film program of our community by providing “artistic” (foreign or otherwise) films that are not necessarily available for viewing in Buffalo Theatres. Having worked in the same office with Dennis Fox and Joan Kirsch, I must oppose the statement that they are using the committee as an “instrument” to project their own tastes in films. It is only too obvious that when one picks a film for a large number to see, one’s own tastes and whims lfwlly realize jjhat tfcere art many students who ,go Jo see what Art IMprdkr calls “popular” films.

Of course, 1 imagine that there are those who , would be perfectly happy if the comitiittee showed Pink Flamingoes every other week until the entire University had a chance to see it. I personally hope that the committee will hold their ground and that the University will back the showings of the eight particular films that are being only questioned. .. , > , ten Chodosh Brett Rouillier Publicity Chairmen. UUAB Endangering cultural programs Editor’s note: The following letter was sent to Arthur Lalonde, Executive Vice President, Student . Association. , I have been following with dismay the actions of SA and Sub Board regarding censorship of UUAB’s weekend film series. I find your vague and simplistic criterion of “popularity” questionable. But what is more disturbing than this issue is the strong-arm tactics you are employing which seriously endanger the health of cultural programming on campus. UUAB must have a degree of integrity and cannot be subject to the whims of student politics. It must generate from within programming knowledge and expertise, year-to-year continuity, and a coherent philosophy. Feedback fr6m students should come through such UUAB channels as Roughing the Russians canvasing, student participation, etc., not through the kind of intervention I am writing in regard to Larry Amoros’ “expert” commentary on the Russian, Philadelphia hockey series. Obviously Larry did not watch the game or he would not have said the Russians weren’t seriously threatened. In the game I saw there were a lot of rough-house tactics used by the Flyers. Dave Schulz shoved a glove in a Russian player's face for no reason at all. Don Saleski high-sticked a number of Russian players in the corners. Moose Dupont was constantly using his stick. Bobby Clarke repeated his “great” performance of the “72 Series by slashing everyone who came near him.” About Ed, “The Stick,” Van Impe’s alleged tripping, it was at the least a high stick. It could have been called a butt end even. I agreed with the Russians when they left the ice. 1 think more NHL teams should do that and have the owners lose a little money once in a while. Maybe the Flyers would change their ways if this would happen enough. If you watched the game and didn’t see these things happen then you must have been one of the many ignorants who saw the game being played against those Communist Russians, instead of as a hockey game between two teams. Paul Savasta — Fred Sandner In Wednesday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported that eleven administrators are members of the newly-formed Budgetary Criteria Committee.

The Spectrum regrets these inaccuracies. • fact To the Editor I would appreciate it very much if you could help me extend my apologies to the University Community for the confusion around the beginning registration date for the Spring 1976 Life Workshops program. The brochure stated the first day of registration as January 19. An insert changed the date to January 12 as we were able to set up the necessary registration procedures sooner than we had anticipated. Actually, we thought this was terrific! In the past we have had to turn people away during the first week of the semester because we were not that inserts do get lost in dormitory and classroom shuffles. Many individuals ended up with brochures that had long lost the insert. On January 19 our office was overwhelmed with people who thought it was the first day of registration and could not understand why they were already being closed out of certain workshops. As a result, many individuals were understandably disappointed and disgruntled. While it delights me to see so much interest in the Life Workshops program, I know that continued disappointment does not breed continued interest. Sorry, it won’t happen again.

Not only do such tactics destroy the above processes, they also demoralize people who work very hard and often receive little recognition. Is SA really in a more privileged position to know what students want and have the right to see? If you are receiving some complaints why not refer them to UUAB where they can be dealt with more directly? Personally, I find the weekend series refreshing a good mixture of the more currently “popular” films, and those not easily accessible. These latter “foreign” films (which are hardly esoteric) are kept obscure largely through such anti-art attitudes that SA and Sub-Board display. Such attitudes are not worthy of students of a major university. v This semester several members of the performance faculty (also members of the Buffalo Philharmonic), are being forced to cut back on their hours of private instruction because-this University cannot afford to pay them for the number of hours they are required to teach. Last semester they were teaching well over the number of hours they were being paid to teach and probably will not receive the back pay that they are entitled to. I’m writing this letter to make the entire student body aware of this problem, and to say that if they think something similar to this can’t happen to them, they’re wrong. All students, at this and every State University, must get together and stop these cutbacks in vital services. I am personally enraged that my private lesson time will be reduced. Many students, including myself, have juries, recitals, auditions and many other things to prepare for before this semester is over. This work can only be done on a one-to-one basis every week. I realize that it is not stated in any catalogue or brochure of this University that music majors are required to receive private instruction every week; but this is understood, and also how it’s done in every college and university in this country. 1 pay my tuition with the understanding that I will receive one hour of private instruction every week; not one-half hour every week or one hour every other week. This is what I and many other students will be receiving this semester. I know that music students and those interested in music can and will not allow this to happen. The Undergraduate Music Student Association will meet next week to discuss this problem. We will do everything we possibly can do to correct it. All students must get together, before it’s too late. The cutbacks have started, and will continue, unless we stop them now! / Martin Miller, Chairman Undergraduate Music Student Association Friday, 25 January 1976 The Spectrum .

We live in the EUicott Complex and have just received a notice from the Custodial Services in reference to overheated rooms, which result in students opening their windows. The service requests that-students with stuffy rooms fill out a work order to adjust the thermostats. “If a window is open and cold air is coming in contact with the thermostat, the heat will continue to come in, often at a higher rate.” The request is valid, but not to all Amherst students. Many of the wings here on EUicott are directly hit by strong winds, creating freezing rooms, because of poorly constructed windows. Students leave their thermostats up as high as they can in hope that the rooms will stay heated. But they don’t. After a few numbing days and nights, the rooms do eventually get comfortable. But then, Buffalo is known for its winds, and they do come again . . and again .. . and again. Granted, there are rooms that are protected from the wind and are constantly stuffy. Yes, their thermostats should be adjusted. Our only complaint is that the Custodial Service and Housing Office can do nothing for the frost-bitten students. Rosemary Duda Debbie Engelman Cindy Smart Police officers not necessary To the Editor. It is important not to mistake the issue of arming Campus Security with that of changing the status of Security (from Peace Officer to Police Officer). They are not the same. The question of the status of our Security is in fact, much more fundamental to the structure of our campus community, and, in deciding this, we construct a frameworkfor much of this community’s future development. This decision, then, should rest solely and equally with the people who share in the University’s environment as a matter of routine. Consider the various effect that police officers on campus would have that a Peace Officer does not. How will the effects relate to the diverse goals of a university community. I believe the presence of police officers would University. And police officers are simply not necessary Rather, what we lack here is an accurate statement of what need hire Campus Security to fill. They must provide that part of community control which is necessary but which we cannot provide by ourselves. I believe this is a small and vital part. Further, the type of officer we desire is one who will become part of our community, who will try to understand it and contribute to it and work within it. I do not say there are no such officers today. Certainly that is more demanding than simple enactment of police power, but that, I think, is the job we have hired Security to do. I do not categorically assert my opinions to be those of the University community at large, however, if the decision is not made by our community, then we must ask, a bit warily, for who does Campus Security work? destroy the academic environment built up by the unique sense of community created at this David Kovaka Dan Kels Barbara Medine Richard Quad E3I8 IE CLASS OF "82" Middle East strife To the Editor. The Buffalo Evening News state edition of January 19, carried a banner headline which read, “Moslems Vow Holy War in Lebanon.” The Scenario is one that considering. many modernists have avoided The Lebanon was established in 1946 by the French Colonial powers as to “safeguard” the rights of Christians. It was originally a part of Syria, and Syria has always felt that one day it should return to its former status. Being the only Christian state in the Mid-East as well as the only Arab democracy, its assumed political stability was a shining light in an Arab world of kings, dictatorships and constant Coups D’Etat. Underneath this assumed political stability there was a constant tension between Moslem and Christian that finally erupted in April of ’75 into what has been termed a civil war. The problem developed as the Moslem population grew into a majority while being given minority powers in the government. Also, after King Hussein of Jordan brutally subdued the Palestinians in the Black September of 1970, the majority of Palestinian terrorists wandered through Syria and settled in Southern Lebanon.—Both Syria and Lebanon didn’t want them, but Syria had the better military and so Lebanon was fqrced to play the compassionate i NEED A LITERATURE. CLASS THAT DOESN'T CONFLICT WITH SKIING! Page eight The Spectrum Friday, 23 January 1976 . . one. The Palestinians continued to develop their terrorist and guerilla forces to the point where Lebanese Law became inconsequential for them. The current major Christian complaint is that the government docs not control the Palestinians and hence, the Palestinians do whatever they want, often jeopardizing Lebanese integrity and security. Syria has, in the past few years, gained some political power over the PLO, the .main terrorist group. Since the fighting broke out in the Lebanon, Syria and the Soviet Union have been openly arming the Moslem and Palestinian gangs. All weapons used Moslems and Palestinians originate in Syria. Whenever Syria wants to cool the situation, it merely “turns off” the supply of arms. The Syrians are openly arming the Moslem side of the conflict. Recent developments show that several thousand Palestinian Liberation Army troops (equipped, trained and controlled by Syria) have entered the conflict from Syria and, siding with the Moslems, now control the Syrian border area, the South and parts of the North. The entire issue of conflicting Christian and Moslem Nationalism has never been explained in Western Media. There is, however, a larger problem engulfing most of the Middle East. That being the almost total intolerance on the part of the Arabs for large national minorities within the Middle East. These minorities are persecuted, as is the case with the Coptic Christians, or subjected to genocide as is the case with the Kurds of Iraq, The Black Sudanese Christians, and now the Christians of Lebanon. In order for there to be a real peace in the entire Middle East, there must be a recognition on the part of the Arab-Moslem majority that there are other peoples in the Middle East with National and Civil rights. by the Samuel M. Prince �'Equus'— a thoroughbred production by Randi Schnur Arts Editor More than any other sort of theatrical triller, the psychological drama has an incredible capacity for mystery, excitement, and horror. No crime that one body can contrive to perpetuate on another could conceivably come close to some of those that human minds have committed against itself. Peter Shaffer's play Equus (which, incidentally, earned its author both the Tony and Drama Critics' Award for Best PLay of 1974), now at the Studio Arena Theatre, centers on such a derangement, and its effect on audiences is every bit as forceful and stunning as its young psychiatric patient's disease. Seventeen-year-old Alan Strang's case is not, according to the lawyer who recommends him for treatment, "the usual unusual." Passionately fond of horses all his life it’s a pretty suspicious passion, Alan is a trusted employee at a in fact, and the plot thickens already stable, but sneaks in one night to blind all six of the horses under his care with a metal spike. Led by the hysterical stable owner, the public seems generally "revolted and immovably English;" only the barrister defending him bothers to look for some deeper motivation than juvemle delinquency, but she does manage to have him sent to the hospital where Martin Dysart is head psychiatrist. - - ' A very separate reality The subsequent search for Alan's private reality leads through the usual adolescent obstacle course of over-indulgent mother, uptight dad, seductive co-worker, and so on, and then right-past it into a terrifying dense tangle of religious and sexual symbolism. The Broadway prqduction of Equus played an interesting, and highly acclaimed, trick on audiences' expectations by casting Anthony Perkins, probably best known for his protrayal of the cinema's quintessential psychotic in Psycho, as the analyst. As the only person who realizes that Alan's bond to the horses, tough ultimately destructive on both sides, represents a far deeper passion than any of his pursuers could ever hope to know. Dr. Dysart is a sympathetic and unusually understanding character, and Perkins plays him well. As interpreted by Studio Arena's Jeremiah Sullivan, though, Dysart is often hostile when he should be helpful, grimacing instead of grave, as cunning in his own methods as he wishes his patient to be cooperative. Brandishing his ubiquitous note pad like a bludgeon, he makes it a bit too easy for us to understand why the rebellious teenage grabs it at one point and believes that he has grabbed his doctor's "power" along with it. (Sullivan, in fact, reacts as if he believes it as > well.) Greek to him The actor delivers many of the soliloquies which get across Shaffer's points as if he might be playing bad Greek tragedy to a steep in other words, ponderously, and with his words amphitheatre directed at the ceiling. But Sullivan's role is truer that his portrayal, and Dysart works in spite of his flaws. Jonathan Howard Jones' Alan is far more successful; the young actor does a sensitive and beautiful job with a role which must be as difficult to interpret as the play's mystery itself. Carol Mayo Jenkins and Jim Oyster are also excellent as the boy's parents, both Dysart can't pin any guilt on them without a refreshingly intelligent struggle! Peggy Witton's Jill Mason, the lover Alan almost has, handles with what must be a mong Buffalo s first legitimate nude scenes admirable aplomb. And the six horses, in Robert F.

Bergman has said that making this film "was the best time of my life. You can't imagine what it is like to have Mozart's music in the studio every day." One need not greatly stir the imagination. The sheer joy and delight with which the audience reacts to this work makes this clear. The Magic Flute, written by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart at age 35, is considered by many to be his finest opera. The somewhat foolish plot is a mixture of the ideology of Freemasonry and political satire with comical characters in humorous interludes. The extraordinary music combines conventional operatic technique and German folk melodies. The story begins as Prince Tamino is saved from a ferocious dragon by three of the Queen of the Night's ladies. In payment, he must rescue the queen's daughter Pamina, who has been kidnapppd’and hidden in the kingdom of the wicked Sarastro. After completing this brave deed, he may then claim Pamina as his bride. Aiding him in this task are a magic flute given to him by the queen and Papageno, the silly bird catcher with his set of magical chimes. Switching sides At this point, the opera makes a twist. When the original tale was written, a play with a similar plot had just opened. The librettists, through some vague manipulations, changed the good queen into a malicious and threatening ruler and the evil Sarastro into a virtuous leader. Tamino finds Pamina and is subjected to a series of tests so Sarastro may determine if he is worthy of Pamina, and if the couple would be capable of ruling his kingdom after his death. The trials involving fire and water, the battle of light over darkness, and the eventual triumph of goodness over wickedness are symbolic of the ideologies within the philosophy of the Masons. Needless to say, good will and love win the war. The appearance of this filmed version of an opera in movie theaters across the country raises some interesting issues. Is the viewei going to the opera or going to the movies? Is the act of putting an opera on film detrimental to the operatic experience or an enlightening enhancement? In what ways are one's sensibilities to film affected of what and how the director has used his medium, in this case showing an opera? Is the film of The Magic Flute an exploration of the potential of film, or an exploitation made possible by Bergman’s name? because A question of taste There are two ways in which Bergman could have made this film. The first would have been to film the scenes in their actual settings, as in films adapted from literary works or plays, such as His Girt Friday, adapted from the play The Front Page. The second method, that which Bergman used, is a filming of a staged performance. Here again a decision must be reached. Should the director on the opera itself as it is taking place on stage, thereby making us the primary audience participating in a visual fantasy? The alternative is to present an opera and Bergman's choice environment where one is made conscious of the opera's audience and the backstage doings of the performers, which constantly remind us that we are mere observers and not the 'jexperiencers" that most films try to seduce us into believing we are. concentrate — — During the dazzling overture 1 a favorite in the concert repertoire, Bergman reveals the individuals of his international audience by cutting from one person to another, concentrating on one young girl (actually Bergman's daughter) in particular. The music is so wonderfully stunning that it seems a shame that the camera did not focus on the orchestra, the crucial point of interest. , Needless distractions From time to time, the reactions of the child to what is happening on stage is captured. Again, though, it is irritating and almost insulting to remove us from the beauty of the stage and oui own rapport with the opera experience in order to watch this stranger's reactions. Although cinematically, there are flaws and operatically, one misses the grandeur and awe of personally experiencing the human voice in such a lovely work, there are more than enough redeeming and compelling qualities to make The Magic Flute a film not to be missed. The acting and singing of the cast is brilliant. Through camera movement and close-ups, Bergman has made opera a totally approachable and comprehensible event. There is an awareness and perception of the characters made possible only because the camera can so subjectively and personally shape its reality. The set designs are exquisite, and scenes are graciously changed without closing the curtain. The opera is sung in Swedish, but the English subtitles enable the audience to follow along with the plot and understand the words in a way not usually possible. The Magic Flute, now at the Holiday 6 Theater, is gay and entertaining and, to paraphrase Bergman, you can't imagine what a joy it is to hear Mozart's music in a movie theatre. -Jacqueline Leopold Prodigal Sun Our Weekly Reader Jonathan Freedman, Crowding and Behavior, Viking, $7.95 (paperback edition published by W.H.

That is, an increase in population or to high density? If the quantitative aspect of the latter, we are lucky. "crowding" results in an increase Freedman does not provide an in the qualitative aspect of answer to this question; certainly, "crowding" but does not produce such a question is beyond the the qualitative aspect itself. And scope of this book which is this applies to a human being's involved in clarifying what have An — embodies those characteristics which the American people still seek in their heroes: They must be antisocial, amoral and inarticulate. But the cowboy is also the white American primitive, and to that extent, given our own Romantic intellectual tendencies, he represents the innocent and (pre-societal) natural state of existence toward which we all strive. Society is itself a corrupter of man; man does not corrupt himself. It is against one aspect of this intellectual paradigm that Jonathan Freedman directs our attention in his book, Crowding and Behavior, The Psychology of High Density Living, and though he doesn't debunk it, he goes a long way toward clarifying and focusing in on the specific issues. Freedman begins by delimiting the use of the word "crowding" to apply only to the quantitative notion of "high-density" rather than to the (necessarily negative) qualitative "being feeling of crowded." The problem for investigation then becomes: Does high density in and of itself lead to, say, greater aggressiveness or alienation in human beings? Is there a relationship living and crime rates, between high-density living and suicide, between high-density living and deviance? In other words, is there a between causal high-density necessary connection between the qualitative and "crowding?" The answer is a resounding "NO." quantitative of aspects Based data on from he and others have designed which control such variables as and poverty education, Freedman argues that it is not high-density, but rather large population itself which is the problem It the number of people which are forced to interact with one another on a continual basis rather than the space in which they interact which produces disorientations that, in turn, manifest themselves in aggressiveness, alienation and deviance. Freedman writes: experiments having to interact or deal large numbers of people "... with seems to have negative effects. To begin with, it is somewhat overwhelming. Too much is unpredictable, there are generally too too many faces, many possible contacts for most people to handle. The whole situation more or less gets out of hand and we feel that it is beyond our control. Whether in a playground with hundreds of children or an apartment house corridor with 30 apartments, the typical reaction is to withdraw and be defensive. There is an important difference between large numbers of people and a high density of people. A large childien playground may have with 200 a lower interaction with inanimate as well as animate objects. "Louder music, brighter light, stronger tastes, bigger pictures," Freedman writes, "are more important stimuli but are not stressors and do not generally increase arousal. Consider a painting on the wall of a room. Under most circumstances, a small painting is less important, attracts less attention, and produces a weaker response than a large painting. A person walking into a room that has two paintings, one two feet square and the other eight feet square, will almost certainly notice the latter first and respond to it more strongly. If he likes it, it will have a more positive effect on him and on the room that if he likes the small painting; if he dislikes them both, the large painting will have a more negative effect than the smaller one. Neither produces stress (unless the person really detests them), nor does either produce arousal in the usual sense of the term. Physiological tests would not find a heart beating faster or previously been obscure and vague concepts. The author is well aware of this, and the book's 135 pages are ample for his argument. One cannot help but share the author's hope that once the causal relationships are more correctly established the intellectual pessimism of finding solutions to our cities' problems will vanish.

The S.l has eight sections that make the disclosure of times many arbitrarily classified information a felony. These sections affect public access to government information, and according to some critics, constitutes a plan for censorship of the press more damaging than the infamous Alien and Sedition Act denounced by Thomas Jefferson. Shockingly, the over inclusive blanket of secrecy given to government information. if enacted in S.l could lead to, in many cases, the death penalty for such reporters as Jack Anderson. Bob Woodward. and Carl Bernstein, if their disclosures of government secrets occurred in “wartime” or “national emergency” (Sections 1121 & 2401). The press has never before been prosecuted under espionage type laws and the impact of this bill would be devastating. S.l's expansive, vague, and definitions of openended “national defense information” includes anything ”... which may be useful to the enemy.” (Section 1128) Thus, under S. I Espionage offenses (Sec. 1121) cover that only the James Bond type spies, but the publication of the “Pentagon Papers” by the N. Y. Times if they may be read in Peking or Moscow. Espionage is now a Gass A Felony with a mandatory death .sentence in a “time of war” and “national emergency” peacetime in disclosures of “sensitive” national defense information is a Gass B Felony for which the punishment is a maximum of 30 years. the bill seems a direct response to Daniel Ellsberg’s and Anthony Russo’s prosecutions for handing the Pentagon Papers over to the press and what probably would have been the government's failure to convict them if the case had not been dismissed because of misconduct. The government enacting of these provisions means the imposing of criminal penalties upon both the public official who leaks national defense information (i.e. Ellsberg and Russo) and the reporter or other person who possesses it (i.e. The Times Editors and reporters). This is absurd considering the fact that the government bureacracy is about 25 years behind in the declassifying of certain types of documents and the officially (so-called) classified national defense information is many times every day common knowledge. Considering this, and that the selective leak of classified national defense information by the government (e.g. Henry Kissinger) has become an effective public relations (propaganda) technique, this statute can only be abused. It must be enforced selectively. No doubt it will be used most often against politically unpopular causes and movements. The statute also deprives the defendant of the express right to show that his act did not harm the country’s national defense or . security. The deliberate limiting of specific intent language is seen by many to be unconstitutional since the current law was sustained (in Gorin v. U.S.) only because of the scienter But requirement. commentators also agree that with the more conservative Berger court there is no guarantee at all that this section or many of the other unconstitutional ones would be overturned. Disclosing Classified Information This section links together the of system administrative classifying documents with the espionage laws. Because of the the present law has way developed, in such cases as Ellsberg’s, the government had to prove that the disclosure of the Pentagon Papers was predjudicial to national security; either injuring the U.S.’s interest or providing an advantage to a foreign nation. If enacted, this section of S.l would solve all the legal problems the government had in securing convictions in Ellsberg type cases. Similar to Sec. 1123 there is no specific intent requirement in this statute. This section making it illegal to communicate classified information apparently requires no that the knowledge information was really classified. It requires for conviction no more than that the defendant know that he was engaged in conduct that “communicates something.” A defense is available if the person charged tried to secure declassification and had exhausted all of the sections review procedures, and the information, was not lawfully subject to classification at the time of the offense. The catch is that unless the press completely exhausts the review procedure before disclosing the information on the S.l provides that it is not a defense that the information was to not lawfully subject “ ... classification.” / The question this statute presents is: who is going to certify the certifiers?” This S.l the by allowing provision, the (instead of government courts) to decide what is and what is not lawfully subject to classification as national defense information, demands that we accept on faith a certification of Government officials themselves political appointees.

Cheating techniques, according to Johns Hopkins Dean Sigmund R. Suskind, ran the gamut from cribbing and copying during examinations to such extremes as students deliberately altering other students’ lab experiments to gain a competitive edge in class standings. No One expects that the thieves will be* caught. “Most cheating isn’t even reported,” said an Ohio State biology professor. “Students aren’t willing to turn other students in.” Part "of the problem in stopping pre-med failure in the cheating is the penalty for the crime in a especially course, a a in fail kid course. “To pre-professional school is like a sentence for life because it means they will never make it into law or medical school,” said an Ohio State know that and some even look the other way.” Although most school officials direct their attention to the almost hopeless cause of weeding out offenders, others believe cheating indicates underlying' problems in the criteria medical schools use to screen applicants. “An obsession with grade point averages is an unfortunate way to select good practitioners of medicine,” says Albert Gelhorn, director of the Center for Biomedical Education at City College of New York. In 1970, according to Gelhorn. pre-med students from several universities told him: “We cheat. We try to give wrong information to our colleagues. We sabotage chemistry experiments. Things haye gotten worse since then,” said Gelhorn. “Pre-med school is a cutthroat business.” — Flagrant cheating What I’m concerned about is the flagrant examples,” said Suskind. “Large groups working together, major cribbing, alteration of experiments, Different criteria The solution to cheating, says Gelhorn, begins theft of exams, major cooperative efforts.” Large-scale cheating is not unique to Johns with a re-examination of medical education. “We Hopkins.

THE STRON BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, MICHIGAN 4B23* ;1. �Buffalo Braves up for sale; owner denies a Florida deal by Pat Qulnlivaii City Editor Paul Snyder, owner of the Buffalo Braves professional basketball team since its inception in 1970, has announced that he is planning to sell the < club. V The surprise announcement came as a result of the continuing failure of the Braves and the City of Buffalo to reach agreement on a lease for the use of Memorial Auditorium. At present, the Braves are using the Auditorium without a signed lease. Early reports that the club was going to be sold to a group of Florida investors were denied by Snyder, who said that he has talked with a number of area people who are interested in buying the club and keeping it in Buffalo. The alleged Florida deal would involve the transfer of the team to a facility under construction on the campus of Florida International University in Miami. ’ Temporary home Until that building is completed, however, the unnamed investors would reportedly set up shop temporarily in Greensboro, North Carolina, where Braves’ All-Star center Bob McAdoo played his college ball. The construction of the Miami sports center, it was learned, was initiated with the stated intention of attracting a National Basketball Association franchise and a National Hockey League franchise to Miami. Miami previously had a pro basketball team, the Miami Floridians of the American Basketball Association, but the franchise folded after only a few years because of poor attendance. The Braves’ problems with the city have centered jaround the availability ,of desirable playing dates in the city-owned Aud, which the Braves must share with the Buffalo Sabres hockey team and the Canisius College basketball team. Home on Tuesdays Since the 1970-71 season, the Braves have played most of their home games on .Tuesday and Friday nights, with the Sabres occupying Thursday and Sunday nights, and Canisius filling about a Third straight dozen Saturday nights, as they have since the 1940’s. It is Snyder’s contention that this set-up puts him in direct competition with area high schools, which play most of their games on Tuesdays and Fridays. The fact that the Braves have consistently drawn larger crowds for their occasional Saturday night games (before and after Canisius’ season) lends support to Snyder’s argument. Snyder had hoped to switch a number of his club’s home games next season to Wednesday nights and Saturday afternoons, but he discovered last week that the Sabres had requested Thursday, Sunday, and Wednesday nights for the 1976-77 season. It has been subsequently pointed out in the local press that this season’s Sabres' schedule found them at home for only five Wednesday night games during the 23-week regular season. The Braves’ owner has stated that he apparently cannot negotiate with politicians, obviously referring to the members of the Buffalo Common Council, who must approve of the Braves’ Aud lease. A grain of salt In spite of the announcement by Snyder, veteran sports observers in the Buffalo area are advising city leaders to act with continued deliberation. This advice is based upon similar previous “threats” by team owners in Buffalo. Snyder himself threatened to move his Braves to Toronto several years ago. and they actually played some regular season games there, but poor attendance caused him to drop the issue. Buffalo Bills’ owner Ralph Wilson threatened, in the late I960’s. to move his football team to Seattle if Erie County did not build an 80,000-seat, football-only stadium. This was one of the factors involved in the eventual decision not to build the proposed domed stadium. Erie'County subsequently built Rich Stadium in Orchard Park, a facility which is suitable only for football and concerts. Buffalo was thus left with no stadium in which baseball could be played, effectively nullifying its chances of obtaining a major league team. Buffalorfians are certain to keep both these incicents in mind as they consider the validity and potential impact of Snyder's announcements. , S.A.

Rubin On Monday night. President Ford made his State of the Union address to the Congress. On Tuesday night, Johnny Carson made his State of the Monologue address to his audience. Today, I am making nvy State of Athletics address to whoever reads this column. Ford said that the prospects for 1975 were bad. He spoke about how inflation was upsetting the economy and about how unemployment wasn't helping any. He spoke about the- continuing energy crisis and what could be done about it. But Ford also are now better. He said that in 1976, the said that the economy is turning around, and that the scandal of Watergate is now truly behind us. That’s fine for America. But what about Buffalo’s athletic woes. Last year at this time, the prospects were not good. Talk surfaced about cutting certain “small sports" from the athletic program to save money. Some people suggested cutting out all varsity sports. A virtual cold war broke Out between the factions of Clark and Norton managed to hold onfor Halls. In the another year.

The resignations of Drs. McIntyre and Fritz and Coach Jim McDonough leave gaping holes in the staff of the athletic department. These holes cannot be filled easily, and the department will suffer at least a little. However, the openings make it possible to inject some fresh blood into the athletic department at a critical time. If innovative people are selected to replace the departing faculty, the athletic department may be able to find solutions to their serious financial woes. Intramurals continues to be the one area of athletics which prospers in any environment. Over 8000 students were involved in intramurals last year, and this popularity is expected to increase. Furthermore, no student government in its right mind would seriously cut the intramurals budget, and the .state and the administration both look more favorably on intramurals than they do on intercollegiate athletics. So much for quality. What about that second may be financial turning around, but SUNY’s isn’t-THe financial state of athletics right now is ana the outlook is not much better. With enrollmeftt'on a temporary decline, funds available to Student Association (SA) will be reduced this year in the wake of ever angle, increasing expenses. The idea of a mandatory student athletic fee is around in some circles, but is hard to believe that Buffalo students would be willing logo along with such a fee. The probability of assistance from the state is virtually zero. Hell, they don’t have enough money to cut Sabres’ tickets. The only light in this sea of financial darkness is the University-Wide Committee on Athletics. This 17-person committee with members from the student body, faculty and administration has been being kicked charged with the task of finding a viable solution to the problem of athletic funding. The committee is enough to maintain hope for now. If they fail, and student funds run out, only a dramatic turnaround of the economy will be able to save athletics. But, if they succeed, athletics will be insured of having funds to operate for three, five or even ten years.

The Governor added that dormitory rents are expected to rise by $100. The Buffalo Evening News reported that the SUNY Board of Trustees would approve the increases at a meeting in February. Although the Governor’s budget has not yet reached this University, an administration spokesman speculated that whatever cuts had been made already would be included as part of those required in next year’s budget. 31 faculty President Robert Ketter had announced that fifty-eight University employees would be laid-off by February 29th. The Governor called for the elimination of 3 1 faculty positions. 40 faculty support positions and 54 other jobs. He asked that 10 of the cut faculty positions come out of the health sciences division. Four buildings at the Amherst campus are scheduled to open this, year, according to the Governor’s budget. The lour, the English and Modern Languages Building, the Administrative Services Building, the Pharmacy Building and the Commisary, will cost S738.000 to maintain, but the budget anticipates $428,000 in savings in off-campus rental space. The Governor also recommended reappropriation of S82 million for the state local share of the Buffalo-Amherst Rapid Transit System. The money has been set aside every year since 1971. The project is awaiting a federal grant to pay 87 percent of the cost. The University’s budget increased by $770,000 from last year. Without the cuts, however, it would have increased by S2.6 million. —Forrest Campus Security Proposal to change status by Fredda Cohen Campus Security heal lire h'Jitor The SUNY Board of Trustees has unanimously passed a legislative proposal to change the status of Campus Security officers from “peace officers” to police officers." - police status gives Campus Security the right to execute warrants, where a peace officer must first be deputized. A police officer can also issue The summonses and appearance tickets. More importantly, the proposal specifiees the arresting powers of Security, on and off campus. The proposal was drafted after Security officers on a Board of Trustees Campus Security Task Force complained that they did not hold enough authority within the state and city courts. The proposal claims to “remove all confusion” concerning the power of security officers, according to Student Association traffic of the State University (SASU) President Bob Kirkpatrick, a non-voting Board member. The Task Force also reported that Campus Security "May arrest without a warrant any person reasonably thought to have committed an offense in the presence of that officer.” In another development. President Robert Ketter will meet Tuesday with members of the Student Association (SA) Executive Committee to discuss student services. Student services has become controversial in recent weeks. Cavages Record Stores’ complaint against the SA Record Coop resulted in the Coop’s sates and hours being severely limited. And Ketter has cut off funds for the Sub Board student pharmacy in Michael Hall until the pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the University. I lie future of student sendees has also been placed in doubt by the budget crisis in New York State. One report from Albany is that Governor Carey’s budget contains sutstantial cuts in the student affairs division of this University. There has been unsubstantiated speculation in Administration circles that the University’s entire student affairs division will be reorganized, or eliminated entirely, in the coming months. No change likely In any case, the meeting with Ketter next week is not likely to bring any improvement, but rather merely acquaint the students with Ketter's position. Meanwhile. SA officers are struggling to find the proper policy to present to Ketter while holding the line against further cuts. Police benefits Executive Vice President Albert Somit told The Spectrum that the proposal had been under consideration for over a year. He said that this University’s administration endorses the proposal and was involved in its conception, as were other administrations and security officers. Somit said the proposal “enables our Security to belong to other organizations such as the Policemen’s Benevolent Association, entitling them to certain fringe benefits, and "clears up legal ambiguities.” Student Association (SA) President Michele had mixed feelings about the proposal. “If it improves student rights. I would think it would be alright,” she said, but added, "if changing the status from the State Education Law to the State Criminal Procedure Law gives Campus Security more power than they have right now. I would worry about it, especially if it leads to arming.” If the proposal is passed as law by the New York State Legislature, the policy of arming will remain the same as it is now. Kirkpatrick said. Only the Smith Protect the peace Meeting officers— Director of Campus Security Patrick Glcnnon said Campus Security is supposed to be recognized with full police power on campus under the education Law, but their authority is constantly challenged in court. Giennon claimed Campus Security has the right to “judicial recognition, rather than fighting for it every time we go to court.” Kirkpatrick firmly opposed the proposal during Board meetings. “I think it is absolutely ridiculous and unnecessary,” he said, claiming, “what we need is someone who will protect the peace of the students.” The proposal itself is ineffective as it stands but the 15-member Board is hoping to have it passed by the state legislature sometime later this year. In order to do so, it must be sponsored by someone in both the state assembly and senate. The proposal will probably be introduced through the Governor’s office, but it must be passed by the Committee on Higher Education before it reaches the entire legislature. If the bill is passed, the powers of Campus Security would change from the ones specified in the State Education Law to those in the Slate Criminal Procedure Law now, president of the university or college can legally Judicial recognition The SASU Executive Committee will make the decision whether or not to allow Security officers to carry firearms on campus. Currently. Security officers on this campus may not carry weapons. Independent of this proposal. New York State Senator Schermerhom, a Republican C onservative from New Paltz. introduced a bill last year calling for the mandatory arming of Campus Security officers on all SUNY campuses. The bill is still in the Committee on Higher Education. SASlf legislative directors said they will lobby against it. SASU member Joel Packer explained. "We don’t feel that a need exists on every campus.” The policy of arming has long been a concern of students and administration at this University. In December 1972, the Student Association held a referendum to determine how undergraduate students regarded the issue of selective arming of Campus Security officers By a 2 to I margin, students voted against any form of arming. Continual demonstrations on campus that year and the following year may have influenced President Robert Keller's decision to prohibit arming on campus. meet 7 to make a decision concerning the proposal Kirkpatrick pledges his opposition. If the proposal is opposed by others, SASU will lobby to kill the bill before it gets out of the Committee on February Higher F.djucation. “It creates many .complications which do not exist under the Education Law,” complained Kirkpatrick. He believes that any confusion over officers’ powers could be rectified simply by amending the present law. He fears that this new change of status could alter the self perceptions of �Senate Bill 1 Nixon’s own idea of law and order Editor's mote In fitt months ahead. you'll be hearing more mtd more about the Senate MB No I /£/./ This is the first m sereral articles by the Buffdo Student Chapter of the Nmtiomtl Lawyer's which attempt to define the bill mtd ham it mV effect different poops of people.

Thus, at this time, much of what was progressive in the Brown Commission's approach to criminal law was killed by the conservative leadership of the subcommittee. - — New and old A version of the proposed criminal code was introduced in January 1974 by Senator McClellan This bill of the 93rd Congress was also called S.l, but should not be confused with the bill S.l of the present 94th Congress. President Nixon disagreed with both the Brown Commission and the dissenting senators. He wanted to “refine” the work of the Brown Commission to combat what he called in his 1973 State of the Union message “the growing sense of permissiveness in America.” Nixon called upon Attorney General John Mitchell The Spectrum a published Monday.

In reality, he told them to reject the cbmmission’s Findings and to substitute his own conception of “law and order” for theirs. His bill was far to the right of the Senate subcommittee’s propose!. Nixon and his followers substituted a rigid, punitive, if not vengeful approach toward crime and punishment. The rewriting was finished and the administration bill S.1400 was sent to the 93rd Congress with Senator Hruska’s sponsorship on March 27, 1973. Most of S.1400’s provisions are largely identical with those contained in the present S.l and H.R.3907 (the House version of the bill). The old S.l bill and particularly the S.1400 provoked considerable criticism in extensive hearings held in 1974 to consolidate the two bills. Because of opposition, these two bills were held up in committee. During the hearings Mary Ellen Gale of the American Civil Liberties Union described the old S.l bill and especially the S.1400 (similar to the present S.l bill) as a “grave threat to civil liberties.” She testified in August 1974 that “both bills would misdirect government efforts at law enforcement away from violent and serious offenses committed by individuals against other individuals focusing instead on apprehension and punishment of those who displease government officials.” at Buffalo, New York.

Buckley (C., N Y,). In a letter sent to campuses across the state, Buckley asserts that, “To my mind, the.use of food stamps by college students constitutes exploitation of the other young Americans of that age who are at work.” Buckley, a co-sponsor of the National Food Stamp Reform Act, says he is puzzled at the attitude of college students around the country on this issue, since food stamp reform concerns students directly, “not only as taxpayers, but also as the inheritors of whatever future is to be shaped by today’s public policy .” According to Buckley there is no reason for any student to receive food stamps, unless the student comes from a poor family which receives the stamps. Food stamps were intended, he says, as a form of public assistance, which would supplement ihe diets of the needy, and not as a program to feed young people who have decided to further their education. The decision to attend college, Buckley says, “is in the best American tradition of self-improvement,” but the student must accept the responsibilities that go along with attending college, including self-support. Buckley points to Madison, Wisconsin as an example of food stamp abuse. One year ago, 65 percent of the food stamp recipients in Madison were students. Beyond this particular issue, however, Buckley feels that what is really at stake is the credibility of student idealism. He notes the distortion of the political system as it now exists, due to the power wielded by special interests and pressure groups, and calls upon students to speak out. “Sooner or later, every young American must decide whether to play this, sordid game by its present rules of getting and grabbing or to change it through principled advocacy of what is right, rather than what happens to be personally profitable,” he asserts. NYPIRG works for pot decriminalization Strategies to achieve marijuana decriminalization in New York this year will be the subject of a statewide conference at SUNY-Albany this weekend by the New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG). NYPIRG has favored decriminalization of possession of less than two ounces of the substance since October of 1975, also favors changing the definition of “sale” of marijuana so as to exclude those who are not actually engaged in trafficking. Restricted parking violated future, the officers would be “re-indoctrinated.” of the abandoned car was denied, Concern over Campus Security’s failure to enforce restricted parking in lots designated for the handicapped has been expressed by legitimate users of the special facilities. Gerda Klingman, a handicapped faculty member of the Biochemistry Department, claimed that she has repeatedly found these spots occupied by unauthorized cars. In one case, she said, an unauthorized car sat in an area designated for the handicapped for more than a week before Campus Security towed it away. She charged that Security officers in the lot refused to do anything about the car when Klingman brought it to their attention, replying that it wasn’t their “assignment.” Any knowledge but the spokesman stated that it*”night have occured during mid-session when enforcement was minimal. He agreed that the problem is a serious one, and is due in part to the possession of illegal special handicapped parking stickers by unauthorized these areas is persons. He claimi “of top priority” U ots for every There are only iccording to 90 handicapped pei office of Robert Hunt, hi ;h designates Environmental Heal these areas. He said discrepency is due to the absence of any additional convenient spots to place them. Hunt added that he is involved in an ad hoc committee to study thp problems of the handicapped on campus, and that the Committee includes one member specializing in the problems of parking for them on the Amherst campus. Top priority A 'spokesman for Campus Security pointed out that the officers might have been on special assignment at the time. He pledged that if any specific complaints of this nature are received in the •ft. \Today miscal- •• Raid spurs action According to Brooklyn College NYPIRG head Richard Golden, NYPIRG decided to work for decriminalization after a recent drug raid at Syracuse University in which nearly 70 students were arrested, and which came from infiltration of the student body by informers. “For most of these students, this arrest will be their first and only (criminal) offense,” said Golden. Bob Voorhis of the NYPIRG Syracuse office said that while hopes for decriminalization this year were raised when Governor Carey supported the move in his State of The State Address earlier this month, the fact that mail reaching the Governor has run 80-1 against the proposal indicates that there is much work to be done. Thus, said Voorhis, the conference will focus on letter-writing and petition drives that NYPIRG hopes to organize in favor of decriminalization. Several Bills Recording to Golden, NYP1RG expects several decriminalization bills to be introduced this session in both houses, and the group is using a full-time intern to lobby for the most comprehensive bill that is introduced. A marijuana decriminalization measure was introduced last year in the Assembly but never came to a vote. A companion measure introduced in the more conservative State Senate never reached the full Senate, remaining bottled up in committee. Target state New York will also be the scene for a lobbying effort this year from the National Organization for Reform of Marijuana Laws (NORML), which has named New York one of thirteen “Target States for 1976.” In addition, NORML is planning court action against the current New York marijuana laws. NORML has spearheaded successful decriminalization drives in Oregon, Alaska, Maine, California, Colorado and Ohio. Oregon decriminalized marijuana possession in 1973, the first state to do so, and was followed by the other five states during the past year. % \ Assembly Meeting M, % Take out the worry with the SR-51 A.

The SA Assembly originated this idea last year. j<, According to Cohen, many members of the Student Assembly last year felt that more than one person should have a say in the administration of an organization with a budget the size of the Speakers Bureau’s. As a result of the Assembly’s movc to democratize the Speakers Bureau, the amount of people involved in actual decision-making has been increased from one to eight. “This year’s committee setup is far better than last year bepause we receive a far more diverse input,” stated Cohen. “Politically, the speakers have often been left of center. This is because the Speakers Bureau has considered the nature of student preferences at this University to be left of center,” he added. “This year’s Speakers Bureau “Star” speakers The Speakers Bureau is attempting to obtain more money from the SA Financial Assembly this semester.

Feature Editor Neff admitted that theje arc at least some committed against students during the semester and even during the brealtSwhich are not reported to police because they are drug-related. Often these crimes are committed by students Four break-ins were reported to police at the 16th Precinct by students whose empty houses were robbed during the winter recess. According to Desk Lieutenant Neff of the 16th, at Bailey Avenue and Collingswood, the holiday season was quiet in terms of residential break-ins, but the number of shoplifting incidents and cars broken into rose dramatically. This was confirmed by All-State Insurance salesman Bill Powers, who noted that the number of packages reported stolen from cats increases every holiday season. The 16th Precinct is the largest precinct in Buffalo, with an estimated population of 65,150 people. Together with the 17th Precinct, which has a population of 46,200, it compromises over one quarter of the total population of Buffalo. However, Lieutenant Neff said it is virtually impossible to determine the number of students living in these areas, which run from Bailey Avenue to Delaware Park. Consequently, it is very difficult to determine which reported crimes are committed against students. crimes themselves. “A student would have to be a real fool to report drugs taken from his house,” Neff remarked with a smile. The 16th precinct aids SUNY Buffalo Campus All items of value have been marked for ready identification by law enforcement agencies Crime reports confidential Student arrested for sending false alarm Forrest An Ellicott Complex resident has been arrested for allegedly sending a false fire alarm, according to Red Jacket Quad Head Residents Carol Dozier and Furrokh Kamdin. The student, whose name has not been divulged, will be arraigned iri Amherst Town Court in the near future on charges of “false reporting of an incident,” a Class B misdemeanor. The two head residents are also recommending that the student be dismissed from the dorms, and Kamdin believes the Housing Office supports this position. The student will be brought up before the Cortimission on Campus Discruptions rather than the Inter-Residence Judiciary because of the “proven ineffectiveness” of the latter body, according to the two head residents. Red Jacket Quad has been the victim of a disproportionate number the past semester of false fire alarms since its opening, and suffered at least one a week on the average and sometimes as many as five in a night, according to Housing spokesmen. There is no indication, however, that the arrested student was connected to any of the other false alarms, and he denies involvement. An example Dozier said that while she would rather not saddle someone with a criminal record, false alarms are dangerous as well as a nuisance, and hopefully, “making an example” of the first person caught pulling a false alarm in Red Jacket will discourage the practice. Kamdin added that the danger of false alarms in Ellicott is heightened because Resident Assistants and even Head Residents don’t have passkeys or keys to each room. Since there have been so many false alarms, he said, some students stay in their rooms and ignore a fire alarm. This could be highly dangerous if an actual fire were to occur because there would be no way of knowing if there were students left in the burning building. There is presently only one master key for the entire Ellicott Complex, according to a Resident Assistance in Red Jacket, which is kept in the Housing’s Area Office during the day and is given to the Resident Assistant on duty at night. Apathy Regarding the criminal charges against the student, Kamdin stated, “We want to make an example so students don’t consider fire alarms a joke anymore. In other words, the apathy and the indifference that has set in amongst the students must be removed.” When questioned about the prevalence of false firm alarms in Red Jacket, Kamdin said that there is no pattern of time or days when false alarms are sent, although there have been several pulled after or during Friday night parties. There is no pattern of where they are pulled around the quad, he said, except that the alarms by outside doors tend to be pulled more often, apparently since there is a readily available exit for the perpetrator. Although crime reports are strictly confidential and therefore not open to the press, some information about break-ins during the vacation has been made available. The back door of a house on LeBrun was Sponsored by apparently' pried open with a crowbar and two typewriters and a guitar were taken. The thieves, thought by police to be two 14-year-olds from the neighborhood, broke open bedroom doors in the house and scattered personal belongings, but did not find an attic room containing a stereo set, two television sets and a set of golf clubs. Students on Sanford were robbed of a small stereo and one student’s collection of record albums. The value of the stolen items was estimated at S 100. A student house on Heath was reportedly robbed of a stereo valued at S1500 and an album collection worth over $1000. There was no sign of breaking and entering at the premises, and residents there have deemed it an inside job. “It i? hard to say who in general commits most break-ins of what they are looking for,” said Neff. “Most thieves look for stereo equipment in student houses, but many juvenile thieves take motors from snowblowers and other machinery to build minibikes and the like,” he continued.

It’s late Sunday night and after those long hours of driving, all you can think about is falling asleep in your bed. But upon entering the dorms, you are informed by the Resident Advisers that you are criminally King of tight Many students were reportedly angered with the amount of time Housing gave them to report back to trespassing. the dorms and start classes. “In my opinion, considering the schedules and accommodations made by some of the other SUNY schools, I feel the January opening was kind of tight. Perhaps the dorms-Zshould have opened Sunday (two days in advance) to accommodate some of the students' needs,” said Steve Kessler, Head Resident for Clinton Hall. Other schools in the SUNY system allow students more time between moving back into the dorms and the first day of classes. Binghamton opened its dorms five days before classes began. Albany opened three days before, as did Stony Brook and Buffalo State, while Geneseo opened two days in advance. This was an occurrence that happened to many students residing in the University dormitories last week, when school reopened for the spring semester. The fact that the dorms officially opened at 9 a.m. Monday morning while classes began 23 hours later was an inconvenience felt by many of the staff and students who traveled long distances to reach school. A spokesperson for University Housing cites two reasons for scheduling the dorms to open less than Faced with the painful reality that budget cuts continue to plague -one day before classes began.

EPA’s proposal of the guidelines came in response to a 1974 suit brought against it by the Natural Resources Defense Council, Environmental and the Sierra Club. They have maintained the Environmental Protection Agency is required to issue such guidelines as part of its responsibility under the 1970 Resource Recovery Act to issue guidelines for “solid waste recovery, collection, separation and disposal systems.” Opponents of the guidelines continue to challenge the legality of the guidelines, although both the Justice Department and the EPA believe that they Action that are legal. Throughout the “returnable” controversy, have supported a nationwide return to the returnable a national way of life less as an important approach to than 20 years ago environmentalists - — resource conservation. In congressionally-invited 1974, the National Wildlife Federation spoke for eight environmental and public interest organizations when Executive Vice President Thomas L. Kimball emphasized that a mandatory deposit on beverage containers would lead the country beyond the “out of sight, out of mind” approach to solid waste management and “lay the testimony in essential philosophical groundwork subsequent federal efforts to regulate solid waste management.” Reduce litter Students from all disciplines are urged to apply. - Propose mandatory deposit on all beverage containers EPA explains that the guidelines are intended to reduce litter and solid waste, cut waste disposal costs, and encourage less consumption of energy and materials. If the guidelines are fully implemented, the agency believes that they will reduce beverage container wastes at federal facilities by 65 percent and save the government about S2 million a year in disposal and collection costs. Federal facilities now account for only about two to four percent of the beverage container wastes generates nationally. But the political battle that has accompanied the development of the guidelines indicates that they are expected to have far greater significance than the numbers suggest. For the past three years. Congress has considered legislation deposits which would establish mandatory nationwide. Both the opponents and proponents of container regulation believe that the federal beverage for all and improve Bad for economy? Opponents of the mandatory deposit such as the National Brewers Association, the Glass Containers Manufacturers Institute, and the Glass Bottles Blowers Association have argued that the switch back to returnable containers would have serious effects on employment and the economy. Returnable bottle advocates have contended that more jobs will be gained than lost under a mandatory deposit system while jobs will only be if the industry continues to produce more throwaways which are energy intensive but not labor lost intensive. Both sides have marshalled reports and counter-reports to support their arguments.

While memos circulate through the inside channels of Hayes Hall, while Vice Presidents meet secretly in conference rooms to decide the fate of educational programs or students services, the people who are most directly affected by this "top secret" information haven't the vaguest idea as to what is the state of affairs on campus today. Unfortunately, one of the worst offenders is President Robert Ketter, who seems to thrive on keeping students in the dark. Ketter, who wields more power than any individual at this University and who is ultimately responsible for any administrative decisions that are passed down, is virtually inaccessible to anyone outside his office staff and his immediate advisors. Communicating via memorandums and Vice Presidents, and rarely granting an interview with concerned student groups, Ketter's own brand of Hayes Hall diplomacy means avoiding confrontation at all costs. Since he took a one month sabbatical leave this past summer, Ketter has become the mystery man of the State University system. He makes crucial decisions without informing the parties involved and then either leaves town or retreats to his chambers, shielded by the most protective group of secretaries imaginable. Typical was the way in which he handled the pharmacy issue, directing one of his Vice Presidents not to process any more requests for expenditures without officially notifying Sub Board. It was only through complaints from drug companies that they weren't getting paid did Sub Board even become aware of the situation. And now spokespersons for the pharmacy report that Ketter will not meet with them until the license is transferred to the University. Acting with all the finesse of a guerilla warrior, he attacks when defenses are down, often during exam weeks or extended vacations. Last summer, for example, after suspending five students arrested during the April 25 sit in at Hayes Hall, he took his leave without explaining his decision publicly. Members of Women's Studies College found it nearly impossible to arrange a meeting with Ketter last semester and NYPIRG leaders are experiencing similar difficulties in getting him to discuss the delay in finalizing their contract with the Student Association (details in Friday's issue). With additional layoffs announced, further budget cuts pending, and the very existence of student services threatened, it is imperative that we have a President who is accountable for what goes on here. Student leaders complain he won't talk to them and as for the other students, most have never seen his face. It would not hurt his relations with the rest of the University to include them in his decisions and even to address the student body publicly on occasion. As the Yellow Submarine is sinking, we wonder who is really minding the ship.

Chow chow chow by Kevin Michael Koszuta McTavish was a happy cat once, content to edge of the tub and wonder where the water came from. Now he sits in the corner with the shakes, staring at me with the look that says “Why me?" And I blame it on T.V. sit on the It started with Purina Cat Chow those cats All commercials. why made me wonder “chow-chow-chow”-ing Oh, couldn’t dance. realize that when I McTavish I feed him he trips me by running between my feet, but all he needed was enough encouragement. I put him on a chair and after getting his attention 1 broke into a soft shoe. He stared at me for a moment, then he ran under the couch. Too complicated, I thought, so I tried some ot the “chow-chow-chow” steps, instead. To give him a belter feel of the steps I moved his paws around and he bit me. This went on for 40 minutes and I was getting nowhere, not even a shuffle. Music wasn’t any help, either. Neither was the Arthur Murray studio: they never even heard of the chow-chow-chow. McTavish would just have to be a wall flower. I should have kept the cocker spaniel; at least dogs chase sticks. McTavish clawed up a roll of toilet paper once, but it’s just not the same. Things settled down for a while until Meow Mix advertised with a singing cat. The English subtitles proclaimed, “I want chicken. 1 want liver. I want tuna. Please deliver.” Not an aria from Carmen, mind you. and the cat in the commercials looks stoned on hard drugs, yet it's more than McTavish would do. And thus began the singing lessons. To provide the proper stimulus, I withheld food. McTavish is no Fred Astaire, but anyone can sing, even off-key. At dinner time, I held his dish in my hands. “Sing for your supper.” I flatly declared. He responded with a muffled plea. “Not good enough,” I shouted, “Eight bars or no food!” He ran under the couch. I tried working with him there, singing the commercial in his native tongue. I’m not sure if I got the accent right. No matter, it brought forth no song. Instead, McTavish peered out of the darkness at me, wondering why I had gone crazy. The neighbors got wind of what was going on and threatened to report me to the SPCA. I finally faced the fact that I have a no-talent cat and left him to continue his carefree existence, drinking from the toilet and swining on the curtains. Ralston Purina received a letter from me complaining of their advertising techniques and they responded with an apology and a coupon for Tender Vittles. It won’t erase the emotional scars left behind, but like I told McTavish, war is hell. Do-nothing Senate To the Editor However, not all of the blame rests with the substantial portion of it stems from some of the members of the Executive Committee. In the course of their normal business, the Senate is largely ignored. Referral of an Executive Committee proposal is not an obvious step in the protess of getting things done in 205 Norton. Referral must be Senators. A I feel Ihul it is my obligation as Student Senator and defender of the current SA constitution, (passed last January), to note the failure of this system of government during the fall semester. The system has failed for a number of reasons. The system relies upon the strong commitment of a large number of students working through the Task Forces and Student Senate; it also relies upon a feeling of mutual trust and cooperation between the branches of the Student Association, and an equal distribution of power between those branches. Unfortunately, neither has occurred. Attendance at most Task Force meetings has been inconsistent. Task Force meetings have not been heavily publicized, save for a short period at the beginning of |ast semester. The student body rarely knows what meetings are taking place. The Student Senate has not dealt effectively with any substantive issues it hasn’t dealt with any issues at all, despite a message from the chairperson of the Senate that the Senators should congratulate themselves for their performance in the fall. The predominant emotion expressed at Student Senate meetings was, “L et’s get the hell out of here,” if the Senators showed up to the meetings at all. Any attempts at shifting power from the Hxecutive Branch to the Senate, in order for the two to be equal in power, failed, because, although an overwhelming majority of voting Senators favored the action, the Hxecutive Committee did not, of course, and there were not enough Senators present to reach the absolute 3/5 necessary for amendments.

Senate Finance Committee Education denied Editor's note: The following letter was sent to University President Robert Keller in December and was signed by 25 area high school students. We the undersigned want to indicate our strong feelings on a matter of importance to high school students. It makes no sense to us to he curtailing admissions to higher education programs at time when, especially for teenagers without a trade or few jobs are available. We profession, very understand that SUNY Buffalo will admit no new students in January 1976. It appears that you will admit fewer students than usual next fall. Yet SUNY Buffalo is the only school in western New York that offers certain programs, engineering for instance. Therefore, we as New York State residents are being denied the opportunity to study in certain fields entirely. Why? We sincerely hope you will make every possible effort to correct this situation which is so important to our future. �APRIL IQ m.pictep iSk^r adp kb I.

We. the Students who reside at Governor, are being tremendously persecuted against with regard to the busing situation. For example, every morning perhaps 100 students are standing out by the bus stop who have 10 a.m. classes. The 9:25 bus comes loaded to the door and squeezes in perhaps five students. Then the 9:30 bus comes fully packed and drives right by without stopping. Next the 9:40 bus comes and the driver lets off a few students but won’t let any on because he’s fully packed also. But what the hell should WE, as students here, trying to obtain our education do? Another bus doesn’t come until 10:00 which would make most of us a half hour late. WE are over 800 students strong here and refuse to put up with this bullshit. What happened to our buses, the ones that left from Governors and went to only Governors. I look around at the people still standing out in the cold 5 degree weather and see enraged faces. Must we do something drastic such as hijack an almost empty Ridge Lea bus which comes as frequently as the Main St. bus. The answer sadly, may have to be yes. It seems the only way to get reform around here is by active resistance. Bring back the old Bluebird buses. They were more comfortable, fit more per bus. and were better suited for University use than any of these buses now in use. 1 call upon the students of Governors to do something, not just sit back and watch all of us get screwed.

There were some gross errors in the article by Thud Kbmorowski, which appeared in a December issue of The Spectrum, including some misquotes of remarks attributed to our staff, which should be brought to the attention of your readers. Lake Erie is the most polluted of the Great Lakes. Industrial wastes have been abated but the task of cleaning up the undesirable discharges from all the factories has not been completed. Undesirable levels of phosphates, oils and mercury are still found in parts of the lake. However, the quantity of these pollutants have been reduced. The discharges from the Buffalo Sewer Authority never impacted Lake Erie since they go To the Editor. We are dismayed at the current bus service between the Main and Amherst campuses. Since the beginning of the spring semester, conditions have been positively abhorrent. The buses are continually late and crowded. Students, after having waited in the cold for as long as an hour, are not assured of getting a place on the bu$ when it does dome. Is this due to poor planning/ inept drivers, or simply a shortage of buses? One(Tfti£g is certain, the service has severely deterioratiecTsmce last semester, and it is not due to the increase of students. The new bus companies have supplied us with smaller yellow buses, which are insufficient. These buses are overcrowded, and present safety hazards to standing passengers. The yellow buses have only one exit, as compared to the Bluebird’s two. This slows down service, as well as making it very dangerous. We ask that Ridge Road and Grand Island provide adequate equipment and service, and if they cannot do so, the administration should take proper actions.

The cutback in personnel with the Erie County (not United Stales) Department of Environmental will result in a slowing of pollution abatement in Krie County. However, it will have little impact on Lake Krie.

The new BSA facility, which For foreign films To the Editor UUAB Regarding the current Suh Board I Film Committee controversy over Suh Board's banning of eight foreign films from the weekend film series, I would like to respond to what 1 term the Top 40's mentality of Messieurs Tom Van Nortwick and Art Lalonde. It seems that both of them have this idea that they atone know the tastes of students. What they argue, in effect, is that tired, old anti-intellectual and unusual for a anti-art argument (somewhat University environment) that any foreign film is, in fact, “artsy" and, therefore, not “entertaining." In other words, we are to choose yaw’s over Swept A way and The llindenburg over Mizoguchi’s Tales of the Tiara Clan. What Van Nortwick and Lalonde ignore, first of all, is (dare I say it?) that students have the right to see films that local theaters do not show because of their “foreignness.” Hence, “foreignness" is equaled with “unprofitability." But there is a deeper and. ultimately more frightening implication, namely that the voices ot a few in the name of a tyranny of the "silent majority" (those who, for various reasons, did not join the Film Committee to change their scFcalled "heretical" policies) will dictate the oflieiallastc ol students. I personally have nothing against “popular" or what I term “Top 40's” film. Most ol the classic Hollywood product between 1930 and I960 (which I, as a cinephile, love dearly) is essentially “popular” and "entertaining" in nature. But to tell us that we should not have the opportunity of “enjoying" eight films (out of a total both weekend and weeknight of over 150 list films!) because a few ignorant people in high places deem them “not popular enough” and think that they alone have the ultimate knowledge and wisdom to judge what is good for us smacks as nothing less than benign dictatorship, something which I will not sit idly by and quietly allow to happen at this University.

Staff Writer Spectrum The Buffalo hockey Bulls won their first home game of the season last Saturday night, by defeating the Hamilton College Continentals 5-4 at the Tonawanda Sports Center. The victory give* the Bulk a 4-2-1 record in Division II competition, and increases their chances for a playoff berth. Heavy offensive pressure by both teams, and some solid netminding by Buffalo goalie Johnny Moore highlighted the game. Moore made 42 saves in the contest, and performed brilliantly when the folk were two men down at the start of the second period. Ray Gruarin opened the game's soaring at S:I7 of the first period, when right winger Bill Busch hit him with a pass in front of the Hamilton net and lifted a high riser past Hamilton goalie Shawn George. Nearly two minutes later. newcomer Rick Costello added to the Buffalo lead, tipping a Paul Son gw slapshot into the cage. For Costello, it was his seventh goal in ax gamesat a Bull, and he appears to have taken Chris Boon's right wing position on the team's first hoc. Hampered by injuries all season. Boon just returned from a leg injury, which sidelined him for six games. According to coach EdWright, Bonn is being worked into the lineup slowly, giving him as much ice time as possible. “Chris is a fine hockey player, and Pm sure that well find some place for him on the team,” said the Buffalo coach regarding Bonn's status. “Ms pby tonight is indicative of has value to the team." Bonn served as a penalty killer during the contest, and did the job well, stifling all five Hamilton power play attempts. jumped to a 2-0 lead, the Continentals tied the score, tallying twice within three minutes. Tom Griffith scored first for Hamilton, when his 15-foot wrist shot ricocheted off Moore's pod high into the net, bringing the Continentals within one goal. They tied the score at 12:35 when Hamilton center Len Thomas scored a shorthanded goal. He beat the Buffalo point men to a loose puck on the left boards, and skated down ice toward the Bulls’ net. Rather than taking a shot from a far angle, Thomas cut behind the goal, and tucked the puck past Moore, who was stranded on the far side of the net. It appeared that once again, the Bulls were going to blow their lead, and subsequently another game, except that Eddie Patterson scored at 18:21, to give Buffalo a 3-2 edge after one. Moore Arnes The second period was less than three minutes old, when referee Dave Principe called the Bulls for twin minor penalties, giving Hamilton a two-man advantage for nearly a minute and a half. With Mark Caruana in the box for holding, and Tony Scaring) in for elbowing, the Continentals swarmed around the Buffalo net, firing eight shots on goal. Moore kicked, blocked, or caught every one of them, including a spectacular stick save on a point blank slapper. The period remained scoreless until 17:48, when co-captain Rick Wolstenhoime flipped one in, followed about a minute later by Tony Scaringi’s goal, which proved to be the winner. Scaring) sent a 25-foot wrist shot behind George, after Bill Busch’s blast caromed off the far post. Unfortunately for Buffalo fans though, this hockey game as all others, runs for sixty minutes, and the Bulls were only prepared to pby for forty. The Continentals scored in the final ' time ran out for them. “For two periods we were skating, and then we fell into our usual pattern of going to sleep,” commented Wright. “For some reason they feel that they only have to play for forty minutes.” did get a sixty-minute performance from goalie Moore, who came up with some fine stops in the game’s closing minutes. “John made some big saves in the third period. I’m not too happy with the two goals, but as long as he keeps making those key saves, I’m satisfied,” said Wright. In addition to Moore's staunch effort, the Caruana brothers, Mike and Mark played well together, each getting two assists. Mark, filling in for a “semi-injured” Fred Sutton played an aggressive game, and teamed well with his brother. “Mark is coming along very well,” stated the Buffalo coach. “He likes to Addle around, like his brother does, but he’s learning.” In order for the Bulls to win their next home game against New England College (Friday night, 7:30 pjn.), the entire team will have to learn that hockey is a three-period game, and that you can’t play for only two of them. The hockey Bulls defeated Hamilton 5-4, last Saturday night at the Tonawanda Sports Center. Buffalo was led by defenseman Mike Caruana, above, and his kid brother Mark. The two back lines contributed four assists and played solid defense as the Bulls protected their lead in the third period, something Buffalo has been unable to do in many past contests.

I’ve got 25 bucks on Pittsburgh, giving 6'A- points, and they’re losing 10-7. Roy Gerela, the Steeler placekicker has just missed a 36 yard attempt at the close of the half that should have tied the game. He’s a strong contender for my Least Favorite Football Player of the 1975-76 season.

The Steelers’ established running game, and the performance of the “injured” Lynn Swann were two very promising signs.

I watch each of the three replays and yell, “Go, Go, Go,” to Wagner, hoping that rfiaybe one time he’ll take it into the endzone. Well, he never does, and much to my dismay, neither does the Pitt offense.

Another in the endless streams 1 of bicentennial half-time shows has ended, and the second half has begun.

The same team which destroyed Central Michigan 95-77 on January 12 dropped a 76-68 decision to Colgate Friday night and then played, at best, a mediocre game on Saturday but beat Albany 63-62. Buffalo, now 5-8, looked as if they would be run off the court by Central Michigan during most of the first half. The Bulls kept missing their defensive, assignments, letting the Chippewas cash in on many open jump shots to build a 40-27 lead. Richardson then implemented a full-court press for the first time this year. Central Michigan couldn’t cope with it and Jekyll turned to Hyde as Buffalo outscored Central Michigan 47-9 to coast to the victory. Sam Pellom, the nation’s leading rebounder as well as the Bulls’ leading scorer, dropped in 23 points, including 11 of 13 from the.'floor, tops for Buffalo. Similar, in reverse The pattern was similar when the Bulls took on Colgate at the Aud, except for one important detail. This time Buffalo took the early lead, 24-12, with ten mirtutes gone in the first half, thanks again to the full court press. Then, the Bulls “pulled a Central Michigan” and were outscored 25-5 to end the half. The culprit was the Bulls’ full-court press, which failed completely, allowing the Red Raiders to score nine easy lay-ups during their 25-5 spree. “We didn’t work,” said Richardson. “Our minds weren’t there. Our kids want somebody to give them something. They oan’t stand the prosperity.” Richardson was also unhappy because Buffalo began forcing their shots instead of working for open Ones as they had done ih.building their early lead. Senior guard Otis H6rne came off the bench to score eighteen of his 20 points in the seepnd half for Buffalo, but the Bulls never really threatened the Red Raiders’ lead. 0 Israel—I—Hear ■ For gems from the JEWISH BIBLE Phone 875-4265 > i. i The pattern of blowing big leads was almost repeated against Albany. Buffalo built a thirteen-point lead and then saw it vanish in the last six minutes of the first half while Richardson was resting hi$ regulars. “We played last night [the and I had to use our subs,” Colgate Richardson explained. “Help fipm the bench is important, but we haven’t''b£en playing our subs much.” Exciting finish With Albany ahead by one at the start of the second half, Buffalo’s starting five returned and slowly built a ten-point advantage, thanks in part to Gary Domzalski’s hot outside shooting. Pellom then committed his fourth foul and had to sit down. This allowed Barry Cavanaugh, the Albany center, to pour in 14 second half points and bring the Great Danes back. The game seesawed until the last minute, giving Clark Hall’s most enthusiastic crowd in more than two years an exciting show. With Buffalo up by one with less than 15 seconds remaining, Albany’s Gary Trevett missed a lay-up. Horne rebounded and was fouled with nine seconds to go. He hit his two freethrows to put Buffalo up by three. Brian Barker of Albany then was fouled just fractions of a second before the buzzer sounded, igniting a controversy as to whether or not any time remained. The officials ruled there was no time left, a decision which enraged the Great Danes, since that meant Barker could not intentionally miss his second free throw in hopes of a tip-in. (Barker hit both to close the final margin to one point.) Later, Albany coach Dick Sauers admitted the officials were correct although one Albany fan already had accused timer Ed Muto of being bribed. After the game, Richardson said his subs still needed to be integrated into the line-up better, and that he was working on it in practice. “When you have ten men so that it doesn’t mattter who’s in there, you have a good team,” he said. As for the attitude change which seemingly the turnabout against Colgate, Richardson frustratedly admitted he doesn’t know what he can do about it even though it has been a season-long problem. Otis Horne was lh« basketball Bulls' leading scorer last year, averaging over 17 points a game. This year, however, Horne was relegated to the bench by two junior college transfers. Otis, the team's co-captain, didn't seem to mind it last week as he scored 16 points in fifteen and a half minutes against Central Michigan last Monday. He stayed hot against Colgate on Saturday with 20 points, again in a reserve role.

You go to a big college, because it offers you certain advantages you want and need. You may have a brother or sister who prefers a small college —and for their own very good reasons, too. Shouldn’t we be as open-minded when we weigh the merits of big vs. little (or medium-sized) business? Realizing every citizen has “a need to know,” The Business Roundtable sponsors messages on how our American free enterprise system works. This month they will reason with the country’s largest reading audience, in Reader’s Digest. ADVERTISEMENT It’s time forfacts—- — ■ a Tr ■ ■ - rather than illogical fears—about “big” business *-’■ Steel, the world’s largest steelmaker. This same situation is faced by big American companies in other fields as they compete in a global market against giants such as Royal Dutch Shell, in petroleum and chemicals; Unilever, the huge British-Dutch food and detergent firm; Nestle, the vast Swiss corporation. The enormous research and development required to compete in such markets is simply beyond the means of small � � thing happened to turing corporations with assets of John Hertz’s little car- |i billion or more is slightly /«r / than those companies had a decade rental lot in Chicago jL. tk to Roland H.

On the other hand, there arc in- numerable tasks—the sale of consumer goods and services, home and automobile repairs, restaurants, to name a few—that can be handled efficiently by both small and large businesses in a local area. It is important to realize that businesses big and little carry out their tasks in a vital atmosphere of jn/erdcpendcncc. Small businesses, for example, would be much less prosperous without the tools, raw materials, finished and semi-finished products they purchase from big firms. As Leo McDonough, executive vice president of the Smaller Manufacturers Council (comprising 575 companies), says, “If there weren’t a U.S. Steel or a Jones Laughlin spitting out fantastic amounts of steel and keeping prices down, our basic-materials costs would be out of reach.” But big companies need little companies, too. In a typical year, 3M Co. uses products and services from more than 30,000 small businesses—such as Gopher Electronics Co., in Minneapolis, and Calumet Screw Machine Co., in Chicago. Hewlett-Packard Co. deals with 6000 small American companies in its electronics business. But what about competition? Aren’t the big boys stamping it out and virtually dictating prices? No. There arc many energetic, clever people making a success in business despite the presence of “big guys” in the same field. Robert Cuff, president of Entron Controls,Tnc., in Carol Stream, III., proudly points out that his industrial-controls manufacturing firm can and does compete with the giants in certain areas. It has even sold control devices to some of General Electric’s own cor& poratc divisions. Says Cuff, “They buy from us—even though GE makes a similar product—because we can build it at a lower price and give faster delivery." Remarks Irvinc'Robbins, of giant Baskin-Robbins lee Cream Co.: “Sometimes when we get big, we get a little lazy, a little complacent." When his company grew big by concentrating on “walk-in, walk-out” ice-cream stores, Farrell’s of Portland, Ore., moved profitably into the same market as BR with sitdown soda-fountain parlors. “They woke us up,” $ays Robbins. “So we started concentrating on the fountain end of our business. The result was that we improved a little, and Farrell’s is doing fine, too.” As to the charge that big business artificially keeps prices high, the facts again rip apart the rhetoric. A study by economist J. Fred Weston, of the University of California, Los Angeles, reveals that the heavily concentrated industries (big business) have held prices down better than smaller and less concentrated ones. In industries where the top four companies had at least 75 percent of the business, prices rose an average of 47 percent during the inflationary period 1967-1975. But in the leastconcentrated sectors of industry, prices rose 70 percent in the same period. Leonard Woodcock, president of the United Auto Workers, admits: “The old anti-trust notion —that, if you break things up into small competitive units, you will have lower competitive prices—may be wrong. General Motors, the biggest car producer, is without question the most efficient and most able to hold down the cost of its products.” Whatever their size, in the end, businesses in America must pass the test imposed by the most affluent and sophisticated consumers in the world. Any business must affirmatively answer those old questions: Does it do the job? Docs it deliver the goods ? Docs it satisfy you?

Page two The Spectrum Monday, 19 January 1976 . . Fifty-eight employees of this University will be laid-off by February 29th in compliance with an order issued January 6th by Governor Carey. More positions will have to be terminated by September 1st, but the exact number has not yet been determined. President Robert Ketter announced the lay-offs at last Tuesday’s Faculty Senate meeting. Out of the 58 cut positions, 38 have already been identified and will correspond to retirements and resignations which would have occurred this year anyway, he said. Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel said Friday that the remaining 20 employees to be laid-off have also been identified, but have not yet been notified. Except for some of the 38 positions which would have been terminated this year by attrition, no teaching faculty will be affected by the February 29th dismissals, said James DeSantis, director of Information Services. No faculty lay-offs yet “One of the serious problems posed was academic priorities and institutions.

A UUAB Film memorandum sent to Committee Chairman Dennis Fox by Sub Board Executive Director Thomas Van Nortwick on January 7 said that the films were not acceptable and would have to be replaced with “predominantly popular films which are “more responsive to the students of this University.” Sub Board is demanding that the films Electro Glide In Blue an American-made film, and seven foreign films, including the current film Swept Away be replaced. The other films named in Van Nortwick’s memorandum were Zazie Dans Le Metro, The Little Theater of Jean Renoir, Les Violins Du Bal, Tales of The Taira Clan, Every Man For Himself And God Against All. and Xala. regard to these films.” Fox and other members of UUAB’s Fine Arts Film Committee said that some contracts were already signed and they did not plan to change the film schedule after it was already printed and distributed throughout the University. In some cases, Fox claimed Friday, breaking these contracts might jeopardize all future dealings with major film distributors. “Em just going to stand my ground,” Fox insisted, adding that changes made so late in the season could only be “self-destructive” since “we’re victims to the whims of each movie company.” , Contracts signed Van Nortwick’s memo implied that exceptions would be considered if “a firm commitment has been established with S.A. peeved The dispute had its start in October when Student Association Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde, who is also on Sub Board’s Board of Directors, complained at a Sub Board meeting about UUAB’s alleged unresponsiveness to students’ tastes. As Lalonde explained Friday, students were asking him, “If 1 pay $67 (the annual mandatory activities fee), why can’t I see films for less than on the outside?” Commented Lalonde, “I thought that was a good question.” At the November Sub Board Director’s meeting, Lalonde spoke of the student complaints and again urged they take some sort of action to make the Film Committee “more responsive” to students. The Board of Directors took no action, and this, according to Lalonde, drove the Student Association representatives on the Sub Board Board of Directors to draw up a proposal that would affect all Sub Board committees (UUAB is a division of Sub Board). The Board of Directors approved three proposals out of the five submitted —continued on page 4 — Ketter cuts off funds for the student pharmacy by Richard Korman Managing Editor President Robert Ketter is cutting off funds for the student pharmacy in Michael Hall until pharmacy transferred from Sub Board license the is to the University. Ketter feels the pharmacy is justified, although he believes an academic branch of the University and not Sub Board is responsible for seeing that the pharmacy’s “contribution to the educational mission” of the University is Executive Vice President Albert Somit indicated. Ketter was reported out of town and could not be reached. The pharmacy will close “out of necessity” within two weeks if the problem is not resolved, according to Sub Board Health A1 Director Care Division Campagna. He said that since the fund cutoff, the pharmacy has fallen about $3000 into debt, fulfilled., mostly to drug companies who will not supply any new drugs if they are not paid within the year. The student pharmacy has been operating since November and currently fills about 40 prescriptions a day. Funded with $36,000 in student mandatory fees and a $1,500 allocation from the University administration, the pharmacy is run by a committee with representatives from Sub Board, the School of Pharmacy, University and Health the Sciences Division. Mandatory fee expenditures by students is subject by law to administration A approval. request for each expenditure must be signed by a student and sent to President Assistant Vice for Anthony Affairs Student approval, for Lorenzettr* Lorcnzetti said Ketter instructed him in late November not to process any more requests for the pharmacy after he [Lorenzetti] the inquired had about appropriateness expenditure. of the Sub Board is an independent which distributes corporation about $240,000 out of the total $880,000 in mandatory fees for SA, and funds UUAB, student publications, the Health Care Division, and other services. -Its board of directors consists of officers from the six student associations. Sub BOard’s role within the University has never been clearly defined, but Ketter apparently restated at a closed meeting last Tuesday among top University administrators his view that Sub Board was only a disbursing agent and could not develop commercial enterprises.' « Although Ketter of the appaised had been pharmacy’s sources speculate that he considered it an error to allow it to be licensed in the name development, of Sub Board. Univesrity officials that Ketter feels if, for say example, the pharmacy is the defendent in a lawsuit, the University, not Sub BOard. would be finally responsible. Almost all the health care facilities in Michael Hall are funded by mandatory fee money (excluding doctors salaries), but are designated Univesrity services. Educational venture If the student pharmacy license is transferred from Sub Board to the Health Science Division of the Univeristy, Ketter could more easily justify its funding as an educational venture, rather than a student service, and at the same time be assured of greater control. Associate School of Dean Robert Cooper said there would be no change in how the pharmacy is run. Part of the problem in this from the students’ point of view is that the administration would have control of a project which was funded with S36.000 of mandatory fees. There is also the fear that Ketter would use his appease to local control pharmacists and pharmaceutacal associations, possibly by raising the price of a prescription.

All these factors complicate the larger question of Sub Board’s role within the University.

These are also operations restrained from competing with service offered by the any Faculty-Student Association, a financial arm of the University University which runs the Bookstore, and the Food and Vending services.

Popular films In addition, the SA proposed an item mandating that film choices for the coming semester shall be “predominantly popular films” and accused the Film Committee of believing itself to be “an instrument to provide seldom-seen foreign films.” “While the educational role of the Committee should not be completely obscured,” the proposal stated, “the fact remains that these foreign films do not cater to a large segment of the student population.” Another SA proposal stated that the Sub Board Board of Directors would have to approve the film list to make sure it was “predominantly popular,” and set up a mechanism for doing so. Neither of these proposals were accepted by the. Board of Directors, which is made up of representatives from the Graduate —continued from page 3— . Apparent consensus Van Nortwick alluded to the two rejected SA proposals as vague, and said that there was “an apparent consensus” on the issue despite the specific proposals not being accepted. In accordance with this “apparent consensus,” Van Nortwick sent a draft of the weekend film list to the twelve members of the Board of Directors, asking for specific objections to films. He received responses from eight members, 'some of whom prepared their lists of unacceptable films together, he said. The eight films singled out for exclusion from the schedule were those which. Van Nortwick found, appeared on each of the lists he received. Much of the controversy seems to center on the ambiguity of several of the terms used in Van Nortwick’s memo. Neither Van Nortwick or Lalonde was able to give a specific- definition of “popular films.” Van Nortwick said, “films responsive to students” could be defined as was widely requested for reshowing films that “the larger group would want to and afterwards. see.” Fox mentioned that in recent years, Lalonde, while emphasizing that he does theaters in the area have like “art,” asserted that “the majority of commercial films only after they had foreign to booked people don’t... we have an obligation UUAB.

The end of the semester is when “things come to a head,” creating the time of greatest depression. Seniors also have their share of depression. After four years of study, many don’t know where to go, or what to do, Altucher said. Robin Goldstein, a senior at Buffalo State College, is graduating this August with a degree in Education. She began feeling depressed last semester. “Fve put a lot of work into my major and I now realize it was for nothing. Being from New York City, the chances of my getting a job are next to zero.” Altucher and Roth suggest change as a cure for depression. Often, however, the student acknowledges the need for change, but can do nothing about it. One Buffalo State student claims that she would like to transfer to another school, but cannot do so because of her special major. The fact that she is “stuck” in the same school for four years leaves her feeling very depressed. by Jerry Rosoff SpttMtm irrhflnil.' Staff Writer hr Students at' this;'.' University and at schools across the country are not only feeling the effects of economic depression, but the effects of mental depression as well. Students commonly sink into a depressed state and psychologists urge them to deal with the problem directly rather than ignore or suppress it. Both Nathan Altucher and Beatrice Roth of the Student Counseling Center in that the Library agree Harriman “Sophomore Syndrome” is one common case of student depression. Roth explains that there is a sense of excitement associated with being a freshman. For some people, it represents the first time they have ever been on their own. It is, therefore, the decline of excitement in *the second year of college and the onset of a feeling of isolation that Syndrome.” brings about the t; Threatening vacations Life appears meaningless to the student who suffers from this depression and they often question why they are in college. Goals seem unattainable. Altucher and Roth feel the people who haven’t taken a serious look at themselves are most severely affected. Friday afternoons, as well as vacation times, spur a mood of depression for many students who find it difficult to cope with their own free time. Altucher says it is because “school provides a structure that free time does not.” As long as the student’s day is arranged and planned, there is no difficulty, but once that structure is broken, a problem may result. Exam periods are also times of widespread student depression. According to Altucher and Roth, the Student Counseling Service receives its greatest influx of students around these periods. Instant cute Although it would seem logical that final exam time would cause the greatest amount of depression, Altucher and Roth explained that midterms seem to exert the greatest strain on a student’s mental condition. It is around midterm time when students who have not done well on earlier exams begin to seriously doubt their future in that subject. Altucher and Roth believe the student’s fear of change contributes to this problem. Many students feel that dropping a subject is an admission of failure and often stick with it rather than admit that they couldn’t keep up with the work. Fear of jpoewK PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

She said she has seen many students who can’t decide whether to drop or keep a course or take a pass/fail grade reach the point of mental and physical illness. Wynne feels that most students experience most of their problems toward the end of a semester, explaining that many teachers do not give midterms, thus Dr. Stanley J. Brody, M.S.W., J.D.

But, he says, after one or two weeks, many inevitably fall into the depression cycle. Relating a study done by the Counseling Service a number of years ago, he said students who performed extremely well one semester and extremely poorly the next were called for an interview. All of the students said their drop in grades was an accident and things would get better. People tend to give up on themselves during the spring semester, Altucher said. If things go poorly in the fall, the attitude is, “I’ve always got next semester to improve.” Once the spring semester rolls around, they realize that a whole year’s work has been wasted, but by that time, it is too late. �LimitingS/U M/SC registration Faculty Senate unanimous in approving grading change If yon were closed out of a Women’s Studies College course, yon may now register again using a new registration number.

Sales limit severely cut back Coop hours change the current proposal to A Satisfactory/Unsatisfactory (S/U grading system here was approved unanimously by the Faculty Senate at its January meeting. The plan, which will take effect next September if okayed by University President Robert Ketter, would make it more difficult to take courses S/U, and students would not be able to elect S/U grading for courses in their major. Introduced by Physics professor and Faculty Senate president-elect Jonathan Reichert, the proposal calls for two types of “binary grading,” one at the student’s option and the other at instructor's option. Binary grading is a systefti with only two types of grades: pass or fail. The instructor, with the approval of his department or unit head, may elect to grade an entire class Pass/Fail (P/F. If a course is to be graded P/F, it would be listed as such and the students would be informed of P/F in writing at the beginning of the course. According to Reichert this option is intended mainly for courses of a performance nature, such as theater or dance, that do not lend themselves easily to letter grading. The Student Association (SA) Record Coop will only be open from one to three hours per day due to controls imposed by President Robert Ketter, according to Coop Director Bruce Insana. Keller restricted Coop sales to a 510,000 limit monthly in order for it to remain in operation. However, the decision may be changed or modified by the State University Board of Trustees or the University’s College Council. The 510,000 monthly limitation serious undermines the purpose of the Coop, one member said. The Coop’s projected income for this year was 5240,000? the 5120,000 yearly limitation will not only cause a cutback in the Coop’s business hours, but will force a significant reduction in their record inventory as well, Insana said. Go to jail The ultimatum was delivered at a meeting last semester between Ketter. Insana and SA Executive Vice President Art Lalonde. “Ketter called the meeting in part because of my (Insana's) letter saying that the Coop had met all of his financial and administrative preconditions, and were therefore going to open,” Insana said. He claimed that Ketter stalled until the end of the semester before making a decision, knowing it would be difficult to raise student support during finals week. Insana’s letter demanded that if the Coop did not open, “the entire issue would be brought back to the students." At the meeting, Insana claimed that Ketter waved Insana’s letter in front of him saying. “Go ahead and do it, if there is any trouble they 11 go to jail.” Ketter was not available to comment on this statement. However. Assistant to the President Thomas Crane explained that Kettcr’s comment was probably made simply in the context of students obeying the recognized University rules and regulations Executive Vice President Albert Somit claimed that the $10,000 limit was a “reasonable figure, and represented a compromise between what was acceptable to the surrounding community and the Coop.” However, Coop members feel differently, and have vowed to fight the limitations. “Ketter is yielding to the pressure of local businessmen instead of siding with the students who rightly control this University,” said Insana. SA President Michele Smith has informed The Spectrum that a position paper is currently being compiled by SA on the entire subject of student services, to be delivered to the College Council. limits In courses where P/F is not mandatory, the student's decision not to take a letter grade would be noted on his grade report. However, instructors will also have the option of submitting only letter grades for all students. Reichert feels this would eliminate a major abuse of the present S/U grading system where students have approached instructors as late as the last week of the semester requesting an S/U grade because they were afraid of receiving a poor letter grade. IN addition. Reichert's proposal would require to inform the In addition. Reichert's proposal would require inform the period of his desire to be graded P/F. The final two conditions are that P/F may not be taken for any course or required elective .for a student's major, and for no more than five credits in to any semester. Under the new plan, students may choose to a P/F grade to a letter grade, but not the reverse.' Any change would be irreversible. If a student changes his major, he must substitute a letter change P/F grade In his new major. Students on academic probation would not be allowed to elect P/F grading. The grades P.S and U will not be calculated in the student’s Grade Point Average (GPA), but an F grade would. grade for any by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer Reichert feels the present S/U grading system has been abused. The original intent of the system was to encourage students to leave their major fields and take difficult courses in other disciplines without harming a high GPA, he explained. However, he charged that students presently use this sytem to shield themselves from poor grades within their majors. . > < Affairs Academic Student Association Coordinator David Shapiro attacked the proposed changes at several points. At a time of budget retrenchments, he questioned the ability of the Admissions and Records Office to handle such a large-new responsibility. Shapiro also stated that S/U grading diould not be tied to Drop/Add dates, which are affected by 1973, non-academic constraints. As late as University policy set the sixth week of the semester as the S/U deadline, he explained, while this semester the last -day to drop a course without financial penalty is January 31, only two weeks and two days into the semester. Sbapuo feels that more time is necessary for a student to hake such an important decision. , Shapiro also objects to the proposed limits of five credits a semester. He said a student’s academic leeway would be greatly increased if the current limit of 2S percent of a student’s total courses toward a degree is maintained. Reichert, however, feels that the semester course limit would prevent a student from graduating with an excessive (greater than 2S percent) total of S/U courses. George Hochfield, chairman of the Faculty Senate, observed a growing feeling against the current S/U grading system within the faculty, he said. A committee was formed in the Faculty Senate last year to approach the problem. Reichert feels his plan would eliminate confusion among both students and the faculty, since all regulations regarding P/F grading would be set out in writing and in advaice.

Plan of action the In the December 3 Departmental Stewards Council meeting, with the Steering Committee the GSEU charged members responsibility of proposing a strategy. By means of formal meetings and informal discussions over the winter recess, the 15 member Steering Committee put together what it sees as a viable plan of action for the spring semester. Already the GSEU Faculty Chairpersons have met with the Departmental Stewards to discuss die proposed program and begin working on its implementation. In addition, many stewards report that meetings are being conducted in their departments to discuss in more detail the demands, the proposed program, and the recruitment of new members. The GSEU Treasurer reports that the union membership (at $ 10 per ye-ir) is steadily increasing. GSEU members seek an increase in assistantship levels although has they feel that even £4,000 fads far short of a living wage. Inflation assistantship minimum levels 1967 when percent since surpassed 60 were established at $3,000. The union has determined that the average 1974 assistantship level here was about $2,900.

GSEU members say these are not the first cuts experienced by TA’s and GA’s. They point out that over the years, TA’s and GA’s have seen cuts and speed-ups by the administration which has resulted in undergraduate class sizes increasing from about 20 students to the present level of 35 to 45. With each TA or GA line considered 0.25 FTE, the union leaders are concerned that the 150 FTE cuts will eliminate several hundred more TA’s and GA’s. GSEU members consider guaranteed continuance of funding as critical in view of cutbacks and the University’s imposition _of the four-year rule. The four-year rule stipulates that no Ph.D. candidate can receive state funding beyond four years even though many academic programs require more than four years for completion. As a result of cutbacks, many second, third and fourth year candidates are losing their assistantships even though their academic and employee performance meets required standards. - - - alrefwHbeiievc that “We cannot know whether we love God, although there may be strong reasons for want to serve you, rtr-Jriwj so, but there cot be no doubt dNWt whether we love our neighbor or not.

A memorandum from this Director of Graduate Studies states that all TA’s and GA.s arc specifically excluded from the compensatory insurance presently available to other employees. GSEU considers accident insurance as particularly important in the laboratories where TA’s and GA’s have been injured seriously in the past. v the GSEU spokespersons claim that the demand on Affirmative Action is essentia] for improving the status of women and especially oppressed national minorities. GSEU maintains that though the achievement of this goal cannot solve the complex problems that women and national minorities face, it lays the foundation for elimination of discriminatory practices.

The “on line” system was instituted last fall, but ran into a problems serious when breakdown computer by a reduced compounded handling capacity (only four terminals were in computer operation as opposed to eight now) resulted in a back-up causing huge lines.

Magnamo argued that thcrf is no reason why SUNY Buffalo has breached its original contract. “It is not a matter of exorbitant rate demands, Blue Bird was the low bidder, of the three companies, as a matter of fact,” he claimed.

It appears that from the onset, there has been a generally negative approach to the whole issue of student services. Instead,of immediately seeking out the compelling avenues of defense, upholding the right of students to service themselves, administrators have chosen the easier routes of compromise, bowing down to pressure from businessmen who have no role in the management of this institution. In the administrative eye, jt is obviously the students who have been forced to relinquish their controlling shares. Thus, our cries, that reducing the yearly sales volume in the Record Coop by one-half cannot possibly accommodate the 27,000 students entitled to its services, only falls on deaf ears. A similar destructive fate could be in store for the student pharmacy if President Robert Ketter continues to withhold the mandatory fee money needed to operate it with no official communique explaining why. Even now with the future of the pharmacy threatened by its inability for drugs, there is no word from Ketter. This to pay ■ constitutes a serious abuse of his power over the fee and we strongly advise him to cut out the secrecy and resolve this problem without further impinging on the operation of the by Rod Snaden Wesley Foundation Director Governor Brown in California, Governor Grasso in Massachusetts, and to a lesser extent Governor Carey in New York, all are trying to cut expenses at the hitter levels of government; though only Governor Grasso has teen fit to include herself a voluntary cut in pay and no chauffeur driven limousine. But could more be — done? More specifically, will more be done at the top levels of the SUNY system, and especially at the State University at Buffalo? How many members of the administration, from the President on down, could take anywhere from $5— $7000 (or more) cut per year, not miss it in terms of their current life style, and save a few jobs of those 150 cuts that must be made. Think of the meaning some would lose some money to keep some from losing all their money, and keep them from further draining the unemployment money supply thus saving more than just a job. There is a president, an executive vice president, seven division vice presidents and three deans. How much could each if only $5,000= $60,000 6 jobs? And if spare not from their personal salaries, what about excess on their staffs, or in their offices? Is there really no way to “scrape” and “collect” to save some of the people with the ship? These are hard questions and they will )iot endear me to a few friends in — — = - ' pharmacy. In the past few months, the administration has singled out the Record Coop and the student pharmacy by attempting to dictate the terms of their operation. If administrators continue to take potshots at individual student services, we must be on our guard to protect them. Otherwise, there may soon be nothing left. To the Editor. Observation ruinous price? The presence of the PLO and the welcoming applause by the radical delegations at the United Nations, which supposedly speaks for mankind, is not only an insult to the Jews alone but to free Upon passing by the University Bookstore on the first floor of Norton Hall, one can't help but notice an array of 18 "genuine pedigreed Pet Rocks" displayed prominently in the window. It is rather disheartening to think that intelligent people in this day and age would so readily indulge themselves in such infantile gimmickry at no less than $4.00 a shot.

Monday, 19 January 1976 . To the Editor. On Palm Sunday, 1972, the Veiy Rev. Francis B. Sayre Jr., Dean of the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C. said, “Now the Jews have it all. But even as they praise their G-d for the smile of fortune, they begin almost simultaneously to put him to death.” The Holocaust and the Jewish State has been something of a thorn in the side of some modern Christian theologians. A system of thought that must forever explain, or explain away the fate of the Christ killing Jew must ultimately reconcile itself with the secularization of those beliefs carried to its insane but nevertheless logical conclusion Nazi Germany. Billy Graham, spiritual leader of Presidents and cbuntlcss millions has provided us with another version of this ugly scenario. The Hiding Place, a movie ostensibly about the Holocaust, has surfaced at a particularly troublesome time for responsible Jews and Christians. In a rather obvious way, this Graham production portrays the Christian protectors of Jews as martyrs, while the Jews are nothing more — than lonesome creatures who eventually expose then protectors to the Nazis. This “dramatization” ignoring history, fact, truth or whatever rational criteria one might use adds to a process of invidious revisionism, that can only pave the way for another generation of oven builders. The attempt to fane the public into this fundamentalist diatribe by a I hiding to the number six million (in small print, “people who read the book”) is an insult to die millions who pendied. and those Christians who did in fact risk all to save Jews from their certain fate. We live in a time that easily loses of its past. Only 35 years ago Adolph Hitler reminded his deputies that nobody remembered the Turkish genocide of the Armenians at the turn of the century, and the same would be true of die Jews. The “final solution” was at hand! We write this letter to remind you.

There have been a lot of political gaffes up there in treacherous New Hampshire but this $90 billion one ■ the worst we can remember, and we don’t see how he can get out of it even if he squirms like Houdini. Another thing about President Ford, though his Gallup poffl rating is presently down to 39 percent, so what? Polls aren’t people and Truman’s, for example, was below that, and when Truman ran in 1948 daily newspapers were against him four to one. So what did voters do? elected Harry. If we had to hmm Wmhimgtom — The son of Stephen Marciszewski, the tailor, awren the President of the United States on prime time this week Mr. Font says his State of the Union address (January 19) is “the most important speech of my Adnumstrattoo" and he win outline a program on which he will bndd his election campaign. And for Senator Musicie of Maine (whose father's name was shortened by the immigration inspector when the family landed in America), it could be a vital speech too. He will have an hour simultaneously on three networks starting at 9 p.m. Wednesday in an unprecedented rejoinder for the Democratic Congressional Majority. It could be as to the voters on the actual issues of the election, as distinct from the froth, hokum and personalities of the primary contests, as anything since the Nixon Kennedy debates. It could be a new thing in American government, a regular “State of the Union Reply." How important it is will depend on two men.

A _ bet about 1976 we should think the Democrats would win this year, but it is way too early to say. And now a word about Senator Muskie. This isn’t the first time he has answered Presidents. In 1970 be made two replies for his party to Nixon. The first one was after the State of the Union speech where the thrust was on environmental pollution. Muskre was chairman of a Senate committee on the subject and it was natural for him to make the response which was polite enough and didn’t repeat his earlier taunt that the administration was slogan-rich and action-poor. A different Muskie answered Nixon’s savage e»e-of-lhe election broadcast, November 2, 1970. All the President’s paranoid rancor welled up against the crowd that had thrown rocks at his motorcade in San Jose, California. He recorded the speech in Phoenix, video-taped in black and white with harsh lights on his features like the one in his debate with Jack Kennedy, years before. He implied that political opponents were encouraging lawlessness. Muskie’s reply was quiet and powerful. Forty million people watched. It was put on back-to-back with the Nixon speech. His voice was measured and reassuring: “Something has gone wrong,” be said of the Nixon vendetta: “It has been led, inspired and gnkled from the highest offices of the land;” in the effort to “turn common distress into partisan advantage.” he said, “they haply that Democratic actually favor violence and champion candidates the wrong-doer. This,” he said quietly, “is a lie. And the American people know it is a lie.” It made a sensation. Under Musfcie’s exterior calm, there is a turbulent interior. He faced down a heckler once and an awed staff member whispered, “Geez, he’s got a glare that would intimidate Mount Rudunore.” His reply to Nixon really launched his 1972 presidential bid. He said be would fire J. Edgar Hoover first thing. He was “front-runner” for a year, which is as slippery a log to stand up on as any Maine lumberjack ever attempted, and he slipped off it that snowy day in the Manchester, New Hampshire primary four years ago, tripped up by the original dirty trick, the phony “Canuck” letter. So why does he speak for the Democratic Congress now? Mike Mansfield picked him, for one thing, because he isn’t a presidential candidate as everybody else seems to be. Besides that, his rangy six-foot four frame reminds some Of a moose they are big, loosely bung with a good deal of reserve power. But more important, for a year now, Muskie has known as much about the budget as anybody in Congress, and Mr. Ford’s speech it on the budget. Budget committee chairman Muskie’s effort to keep appropriations in line with revenues could be the most important thing in the 94th Congress. It’s a startling new idea. Sometime he has seemed like Big Daddy leading a child. But he isn’t a candidate he — — says. WS&K VHXZ ' Loewuee 0ETTBRORFW? um& Hi (SaRNG OFUGx) mm? uzuue feoirfUL LN6S.

NHL-Soviet hockey ends hut violence controversy lingers rough-housing. by hul Krehbiel Contributing Editor The Wings of the Soviet and the Central Red Army hockey teams departed from the United States last week amid continuing discussion over the exciting, but controversial series with National Hockey League clubs. The Soviet teams, generally recognized as excellent and on par with the best in the NHL took five of eight games. If it does, we should applaud the Soviet hockey players for resolving a problem that North American players and fans should have put an end to years ago. It is clear that the Soviets have ' a different view,of the game than many NHL players and fans. Sergei Guskov, a coach of the Soviet Wings, explained, “It is difficult for us to play according to NHL rules.” He said that in Soviet hockey defensemen cannot tie-up opposing players in front of their net, or push them out of the slot area. Likewise, heavy body checking and rough play would be called for penalties. Yet, what is at issue, is the two different styles of play. Many North American hockey team players, owners, fans and sportswriters boldly proclaim the rough and violent style of NHL hockey as the best. Apparently Soviet style Thus, precision passing oblivious to the finer points of the game hockey and develop bonds of mutual friendship and not to be understanding provoked into rough play or fights though this sometime? happens. This type of play only ruins the game of hockey, and has led to serious injuries in the past. Sports are intended to improve one’s physical well-being, not destroy it. The game suffers when exciting players like Gil Perreault, Valeri Bobby Hull or Kharlanov, — — Aleksandr Yakushev are sidelined because of injuries. Hull protests too Bobby Hull, one of North America’s all-time greats, recently sat out one game to protest the violence in hockey. Hull said, goons ‘The the stick-swingers... are lasting in this game only because the game allows that crap to go on.” Hull lays the blame with the owners and their desire to make and * ... play-making usually is the deciding factor in winning hockey precision passing, skating and excellent picture-playing goal scoring games and the Soviets are these people see hockey as a form excellent at both. Smaller players of warfare. of excellent ability have worked Many applaud the fighting, their way into the top ranks of highsticking, spearing and heavy Soviet hockey and have done body-checking and boarding that quite well. Yet against larger has become a regular feature of opponents, who play under rules that allow weight and size to be NHL hockey. While this series;,was played used to their advantage, the under NHL rules' (which differ Soviets are at somewhat of a somewhat froth Soviet rules), disadvantage.

NHL rough-housing Although many people were also critical of dirty play in the NHL, some expressed opposition to the Soviet decision to leave the ice after absorbing rough play from the Philadelphia Flyers. The Soviets expressed concern about the safety of their players, especially with the highly valued Olympic games coming up. Yet perhaps, this action will spark enough national debate to finally put an end to NHL —Photo court My of tho Buffalo Courier-Exprw* ‘The owners think the people (violence], but the is considered “physical culture” in explained that they take their owners are wrong,” he charges. the Soviet Union, and is promoted books with them on road trips to the “If they want to keep to insure the harmonious keep up with their studies, and goons in this game, let them form development of both mind and have, special arrangements to take a league of their own ai)d they can exams at a later date. body. slice each other up.” is development Sports Guskow said the Soviet Union game The Soviet relies on sharp of sees the development of good guaranteed by the Committee passing, puck control, constant of the sportsmanship and team effort as motion and skillfully organized Physical Culture and Sports and is a reflection of Soviet society. while their NHL counterpart is play-making.

Hockey League National were anxiously supporters awaiting the upcoming exhibition series between the top two Soviet hockey eight teams and the game. The match though was marred in the early going due to a childish maneuver by Russian' coach Constantin Loktev, who heads the Central Army team. After a series of hard checks and rugged hits by the Flyers, Philly defenseman Ed Van Impe allegedly tripped Soviet star Valery Kharlamov. Referee Lloyd Gilmour of the NHL either didn’t see the infraction, or chose not to call it. This sequence of events so enraged Loktev, that he pulled l)is players off the ice to the Soviet bench in protest of the Flyers’ tactics and Gilmour’s designated NHL squads. Well, the series was completed last week, and now the Russians yelling bloody are murder. They’re nqt bragging and boasting about their supremacy over many of the National League teams, but instead, they are complaining about the Philadelphia Flyers’ “style of play.” The Soviets, just like many NHL critics, have resorted to calling the Flyers have even “animals-,” and questioned their presence on the ice.

The Soviet coach then figured why not be 21 men down, and he took his entire team into the dressing room, demanding new officials. The Soviets picked up, lock, stock and barrel and left the ice.

The move by the Russians was one of the cheapest, bush-league schemes seen in- hockey circles in recent years. The Soviets had no right to leave the ice in the manner in which they did, regardless of the Flyers’ tactics. Granted, Philadelphia is a dirty hockey team, and quite often their form of schoolyard shinny proves to be dangerous to opponents, but in this particular game the Flyers were not overly rough and did not threaten the Russians. seriously To check or not to check Then, there is the matter of officiating. For the Russians to complain about poor refereeing is tantamount to Richard Nixon corruption in about The 1972 Team Canada-Soviet series was severely griping politics. by the European officials, who abhor any type of physical play. Two referees were used in that series instead of one and they considered the most harmless of checks as violent and cause for penalty. hampered According to NHL president Clarence Cambell, the Russians skillfull, a play “very fundamentally sound game ... physical based ■ on no interference.” (Taken from UPI Wire Service.) Subsequently, any type of hitting at all stunned the Soviets so much that they felt referee Gilmour was negligent in his calling of penalties. What seemed to be routine plays to both NHL players and officials seemed to be displays of brutality to the Russians. The recent hockey series between eitfit National TTocksy League teams and two teams from the Soviet Union prpdgced considerable controversy over the different styles of hockey played in North America and the Soviet Union.

This article discusses the efforts at reform, as well as alternatives to the established media. returning from a thfee-week student-journalist tour of Cuba in the summer of 1974 and offered by Paul Krehbiel Contributing Editor Although connections between the mass media order. of semblance skill in the “Consummate balancing act was the mark of a good Times man . . .” The writer of this article went to both the Courier Express and Buffalo Evening News upon and exist articles large papers businesses through interlocking people many directorates, associated with the mass communications industry do not share the beliefs of their employers. In fact, disagreements take place on many levels between sectors of the media and — of the government, between the newspaper owners and their editors, and between editors and writers. The differences that take place between the editors of major media operations and their owners is usually slight, since the editors have risen to their positions after of demonstrating their years loyalty to the interests of the owners. The editors are usually paid well for their services, and probably believe in what they are sectors doing. One major level of struggle is about the they said trip. Both were not interested. Several weeks later, Senators Javits and Pell, and a group of news reporters traveled to Havana for three days. When they returned, the Buffalo Evening News published an entire page of material on Cuba based on these reporters’ trip. Their articles focused on the “shortage” of towels in their hotel rooms and complaints about the presence of goods and machinery from the Soviet Union. There was little explain to the attempt impoverished living conditions for the majority of Cuban people before the revolution and how things have changed since. Progressive papers Aronson wrote an article in the criticizing the Times Newspaper for the Guild’s late 1940’s reporters, writers, production staff and printers, on the one hand, and the owners and their editors, on the other. monthly publication Frontpage. and was reprimanded for it.

They were joined by John McManus, and concentrated on analyzing news from the mass between the James Aronson, in his book The Tress and the Cold War, relates an episode concerning his own career as a journalist. In his first years as a writer, he was influenced by the unsympathetic and that the press position government held with regard to the Republican government in Spain. Other distortions that he saw while working at the Boston Evening Transcript led to his skepticism of American politics. Finally his active membership in the American Newspaper Guild which was then moving away from the American Federation of Labor (AFL), and towards the of Congress Industrial helped (CIO), Organization consolidate his views. Later, working as a writer for the New York Post, he was passed over during the selection of a new assistant editor. He recalls in his book that the News Editor, John Gibbons said to him “You were not advanced, my young friend, because your political views are at variance with those held by the management of this enterprise and therefore them.” not acceptable to Rejects Cuba report Some years later, Aronson was working for the New York Times. He remarks that “all stories were balanced,” meaning that the interpretation was never favorable to a socialist country.

Reporters in several other cities began publishing similar journals.

They were refused, and 150 marched to a publishing industry rally nearby.

Yet, recently other forms have developed the 1968 Democratic At National Convention in Chicago, reporters and photographers were clubbed along with anti-Vietnam war demonstrators. Aronson quotes one reporter in his book Packaging The News as saying, “Our editors told us that we didn’t see what we really saw under those blue helmets.” — Of course they did see, and their anger was great enough that they made sure millions of too. television viewers see Angered at the viciousness of the the initial police and unresponsiveness of many of their and editors, these, newsmen women formed an Association of Working Press, and published the Chicago Journalism Review.

At the Courier Express, 74 tons of newsprint, 400 gallons of ink, and five tons of lead are used nightly to produce 150,000 copies of a standard 40-50 page paper. Over half of the workers there are typesetters, printers and laborers. Non-monopoly press With many paper mills owned the large newspaper chains, and medium-sized smaller newspapers can be forced out of business when prices "are raised. result is a further The monopolization of the newspaper industry. Aronson notes that the number of daily newspapers has dropped from 2,200 in 1900 to 1,758 in 1970, while some of continue to remaining those expand and increase their profits. Despite the impression that the are disappearing, newspapers “the reports that, Aronson newspaper industry is doing very a the conglomerates well have new form of monopoly by - ... — paid off handsomely by cutting costs Yet, given the monopolycontrolled nature of the mass media, there is a limit on what can be won. Some dissatisfied writers have joined with others to form small independent newspapers or journals. Of course this is very First newspaper’s profit, according to Kevin Burns, Public Relations director at the Courier Express ...” As the newspaper magnate Roy Thompson said, “It is the business of newspapers to make money.” Yet, significant numbers of newspapers manage to exist being to subject without monopoly control. These include the student press, with a total readership of nearly nine million; the trade union and labor press with an estimated circulation of some 20 million; the black press with a readership of between two and three million, and the left press with a circulation of perhaps 100,000 to one million. The student press There 1,200 are student publications in the United States. The largest single paper is the State News, published by students at Michigan State University, with of over 39,000. The a circulation published at the University of Texas at Austin has a circulation of 37,000. About 50 have college newspapers circulations of 14,000, or above, including The Spectrum and Daily Texan, and over 135 student papers print 10,000 or more. While offering students the opportunity to gather news, many papers are of varying quality, and many unwittingly reprint stories UP1 or their city from the newspapers. The largest non-monopoly run press is the labor press. Jim Williams, editor of the national rank-and-file paper Labor Today, published in Chicago, estimates newspaper trade union the circulation at about 18 million Ethos, Labor's voice A spokesperson ALT.-CIO News, in D C., puts the figure from the Washington, at about 20 million.

Blue Bird Bus must get the new contract The University must legally retain its contract with Blue Bird Coach Lines, Inc. after the company concludes a new contract with its drivers, according to James Desantis, director of University Information Services. The drivers, who are members of Local 1203 of the Amalgamated Transit Union (AFL-CIO), have been on strike almost two weeks, reportedly seeking wage increases and higher vacation pay. Although Paul Bacon, of the University Purchasing Department, stated, “Maybe the administration will rehire Blue Bird and maybe it won’t,” Desantis said the present contract runs through August 31, 1976 and can only be broken by a mutual agreement between the company and the University. Desantis explained that every three years there is competitive bidding among local bus companies for the University contract. Blue Bird has been contracted since 1968, with yearly options granted by the University. Financial report requested A Graduate Student Senate resolution 01 “maintaining the high quality of graduatt education” at this University, was submitted Iasi week to President Robert Ketter.

In addition, thi; University attaches a four-year limit to such awards. “Graduate students are not able to live on their stipends,” he said. It is estimated that the Teaching Assistant (TA) and Graduate Assistant (GA) stipends have been devalued by more than 50 percent since 1967. The average stipend of $2889, DiFilippo said, will force many graduate students to seek other employment University not in close contact Negotiations between the bus company and Local 1 203 have not proceeded past the opening stages. Blue Bird’s president and owner, Louis A. Magnano, has been reported out of town by his secretary. This news came as a surprise to Desantis. The hiring of Grand Island Transit Corp., owner of Ridge Road Express Inc., which is also supplying buses, is merely “a temporary, emergency measure” Desantis noted. He said that aside from Blue Bird, Grand Island was the only local company able to supply the number of buses necessary for the estimated 12,000 students who travel daily by Marty Schwartz between campuses.

Insana said the reopening originally scheduled for Monday was dealyed when record store owner Carl Cavage took his case against the Coop to the state legislature and SUNY Board of Trustees. “Essentially, we have been closed a month, and we’re tired of waiting. We've done everything he [Ketter] has asked for an we’re operating on the assumption that Ketter will approve. If he doesn’t or if he sets the inventory levels too low, the entire Coop will have to decide what they want to do," Terry DiFilippo in addition to their teaching or research activities. “If the cutbacks become more severe, there will be drastic consequences on the high quality of graduate education at this University,” DiFilippo said. Waiting for Ketter Record Coop to open today tnsana said Awaiting the word Both SA and the Student Association of the State University (SASU) recommended that the Coop not reopen without hearing Ketter’s final word. SA Executive Vice President Art Lalone claims “opening without Ketter’s approval is playing confrontation politics, and students tend to lose in that game.” Insana reported that “SASU felt we should wait to give our case more authoirty.” SASU has taken on defense of the Coop on the grounds that it is a student service, and it has educational value. Ketter, who received the final proposal concerning the Coop’s accounting procedures Monday morning, commented that “a decision could come at anytime; however, 1 still have some questions in my mind.” He refused to elaborate. Coop members criticized the SA for the delay in reopening. One member fell SA was too concerned with the overall issues and not enough with the Coop’s specific need. Another said SA made too many concessions to the administration in the bargaining process. Constraints Doug Cohen, SA Director of Student Activities replied that “SA is working under many administrative, constraints, departmental, and our own. Things just don’t happen over night.” However, the brunt of the criticism was directed toward Ketter. One Coop member said he watched the President say on television last Saturday how priorities for the University are now directed towards getting students practical or applied education. “Why has he then tried to close down the few that have organizations attempted to do that," the member asked. Finally, some members raised a moral issue. They believe the “feeling” behind the Coop is being lost by paying students to handle the accounting that was always done for free.

Wednesday, 10 December 1975 �Problem of normalization Department of Speech is offering support service to hearing impaired employee’s hearing problem, the service can provide the by Fredda Cohen Feature Editor The hearing impaired students on campus have long gone unnoticed by many departments at this University. The fault does not lie solely with the faculty or administration, however, for many are not aware of the invisible handicaps of some of their students. Several audiologists suggest that the students feel so severely stymatized that they are afraid to “cane out” and make their professors aware of their special needs. To help remedy the problem, the Department of Speech Communications and Disorders is offering a supportive service to the hearing impaired. The service was initiated by Wanda Miller, an audiology major at this University and Derek Sanders, Associate Chairman of the department. “The strongest problem for a hearing impaired student is the process of normalization,” stated Miller, who is hearing impaired herself from birth. Because many of these students have long remained in household of protective parents, who sometimes tend the to shelter their children, they are not prepared to handle the fast-paced University environment on their own. If the student begins to experience difficulties, due to an auditory handicap, he or she might feel embarrassed to tell the professor. Spoon fed Miller cited her own past experience. Although she is excellent at reading lips, and has very little difficulty in following lecture classes, she was having trouble in one class where the professor often showed films. Because the actors constantly had their backs to the audience or the film was focused on something other than the speaker, there was no way she could comprehend the words She explained the situation to her professor who just insisted that he did not want to “spoon feed” her. Determined to get assistance, she spoke to one of her audiology professors. The professor, in lurn, called up the uncooperative teacher and explained that Miller did not want special treatment, but simply a fair chance to compete with the other students. As a result, she was given alternative reading materials. Miller, who claims to be more outspoken on the subject than most of the other hearing impaired students at this University, believes the other students also desire supportive services on campus. “My impression is that they feel something is missing in the school system.” Speech communications students involved in the special program for hearing impaired hope the services will fill this void. Total service set up for audiological Shapiro, a doctoral student in audiology. “We now want it to become a coordinator of total services, not just a yearly audiological work-up. It should act as a referral service, a counseling service, and a “The testing,” clinic was originally said Marsha liason between students and the University.” For example, if a company is uncertain as to the extent of a potential PROBLEM PREGNANCY?

One of the false generalizations associated with these students is that all hearing impaired are 100 percent deaf. most impaired people have some sense of Miller, who is considered audiologically deaf, stressed the difference between that and being socially However, hearing. deaf. “In terms of socialization, a person that is deaf is not capable of communicating in a normal manner (other than speech communications, such as sign language), while a hearing impaired person can communicate ordinarily, but has difficulties in some cases,” she said. For a person who lip reads, low lighting and bad ennunciation create difficult conditions. Because a hearing aid equalizes the volume of far and near noises, crowded areas produce much interference. Many of the problems involved in learning how to communicate are the same as those enountered by a foreign student learning English, such as word usage, exceptions, and idioms and cliches, claimed Miller. Easier to pass two other explanations for the “I think it is easier for a participation. of students’ lack deaf person to pass,” she said. “Also, a lot of people have had so much training before college, that they are tired of it. College gives them more of a chance to be on their own, without constant supervision or protection.” It only takes a few isolated incidents to make a person feel ashamed of a hearing defect. When Miller was in elementary school, for example, she said she had at least Shapiro offered one teacher a year who would humiliate her. One time, she fell in school and bruised herself. A teacher came over to her and accused “her kind” of making all sorts of unnecessary trouble. That teacher was the exception, Miller claimed, “but the exception leaves a big imprint.” She also cited evidence of job discrimination. Although the law specifies that discrimination is illegal unless the handicapped person is a hazard td the health of other employees, it is existant all the same. Employers often claim that the job has already been filled. Even when the person is employed, the job is likely to be in jeopardy. Injustices ‘One step ahead’ Although audiologically deaf, Miller considers herself socially hearing impaired, and deplores the term “deaf.” hold a regular conversation by reading lips and the small amount of hearing that she does possess. In fact, she is able to speak on the phone, without any special She can using Because she hears vowels, although very softly, she is able to piece together the sentences of the other speaker. To do this, she said she has to be “one step ahead of the other person,” or know the subject matter of the conversation. She learned this skill by having a friend call her up every day one summer for a few hours at a time. If she could not understand what was being said, the friend would change the sentence structure until it was made clear. “They all said 1 couldn’t do it, but I did,” she declared “It doesn’t matter what the audiogram says,” maintained Miller’s tutor, Debbie Houghtalmg, a graduate audiology student “Other students on campus have better hearing ability than Wanda, but don t make the effort. adjustments. In a twon in Michigan, a hearing impaired woman was specially trained as a murse’s aid. Because of her condition, she was placed in the geriatrics and fractured bone wards, so she wouldn’t be involved in any life and death situations. In each of the rooms, there were buzzers that would activate lights to attract the attention of the staff. One day, instead of pressing the buzzer a staff member called her name and she, of course, did not respond. As a result, she was fired. The injustices go on. Doctors have found deaf people mental institutions, labelled retarded. Car and life insurance is higher than for hearing people, although national statistics from a survey taken in 1968 say that the hearing impaired have a lower rate of accidents than in hearing people. It is important to note that the people who carry the “1 am deaf’ card and ask for contributions are “working” illegally. The American Annals of the Deaf has repeatedly put out warnings urging people not to donate money. These individuals keep most of the money collected and many of them are not even deaf. Improved situation Who needs help? supportive began when Miller needed service and Houghtaling tutoring for one of her courses, volunteered to help a few hours a week.

The procedure is to get a hearing test and then see about possible rehabilitation.” The Speech Communication Department administers hearing tests to students free of charge. There arc various reasons why a student may not come for aid. The simplest is that he or she may not be University Bookstore Come in today for a The situation has begun to improve in the past few years. The first tremendous progression occurred in the early part of this century when The American Annals of the Deaf and Dubmb changed its name to The American Annals of the Deaf. There is a possibility that it may even change the word, deaf, to hearing impaired. Certain colleges and universities operate special clinics which teach parents of hearing impaired children how to rear them. The major point emphasized is that potential should not be ignored. A few community colleges are also coming out with two-year vocational programs that are designed specifically for the hearing impaired. “The concept of deafness is undergoing a complete change,” said Miller. “A lot of people who have experience with the deaf will say that I’m the exception to the rule, but I tell them no. I’m the new rule,” ( <• S£ THE FlKSf" Ofj lb YOU*. 6UXX KM E ome" > FREE DEMONSTRATION The HP-21 Scientific Pocket Calculator Now 99" $ The HP-22 Business Pocket Calculator Now $ 165. 00 The HP-55 Scientific Pocket Calculator Now $ 335 00 The HP-65 Scientific Pocket Calculate Programmable The Ultimate in Pocket Calculators Now s 795 00 Wednesday, 10 December 1975 .

Page three �Third World caucus SASU resolves legality by Carrie Valiant Spectrum Staff Writer The fate of the Third World Caucus, created by the Student Association of the State University (SASU) last April in accordance with Affirmative Action, was decided in a joint SASU-Studenf Assembly conference in Buffalo last weekend. The crucial question, concerning the legality of the Caucus, was resolved Sunday by an amendment to the Student Assembly by-laws, providing for “the seating of the Third World delegates to be approved by the State University Board of Trustees.” SASU originally declared the Caucus illegal because there was no clause in the Assembly by-laws which provided for its existence. Each Assembly member school will have one representative to the Caucus, which will in turn elect ten Third World delegates to sit on the Assembly as voting members. The Caucus must be renewed at one year intervals by a majority Assembly vote. While the Assembly has approved the amendment, it has not yet been passed by the SASU membership. However, Buffalo delegate Michele Smith believes if the SUNY Trustees agree to its formation, SASU will probably follow suit. Pending Trustees’ approval Although Smith endorsed the Assembly amendment, she vowed not to vote for it in SASU if the Trustees reject it. Having ten members in SASU that do not belong to the Assembly would make their voting structures different, and break down the unity of the two organizations, she explained. Due to controversy within SASU over the Caucus, Stonybrook, Brockport and Cortland withdrew their from SASU. membership Representatives of these schools claim the Caucus violates the 14th amendment of the Constitution, since Caucus delegates are elected separately from the other SASU delegates. Also tied to the schools’ withdrawals was a recently instated SASU hiring policy which called for the next four vacant staff positions to be filled by at least one woman and one Third World peison. This, they claim, is an illegal quota system and reverse discrimination. The Caucus delegates were temporarily seated at the last SASU conference after lengthy debate. The question of its legality was not brought up at that time. Lets more on Many of the Third World representatives maintained this past Friday that SASU only wanted a Caucus to show its “liberal attitude,” but would not support its intention with the necessary funding. Later, in a closed session meeting with the SASU Executive Committee, Caucus supporters agreed not to bring up the question until other SASU business was completed. One Third World representative claimed SASU had “patted us on the back with a knife,” while a Buffalo spokesperson charged the organization with hypocrisy. Related to the Caucus issue was SASU’s Saturday night decision based on “hearsay” evidence that she was no longer a registered student. This action was reconsidered at the Sunday morning session and will be voted on again after the Trustees reach a decision on the Caucus. Paris is a Third World Caucus delegate. SASU President Bob Kirkpatrick urged the membership not to bog itself down in a debate over Paris, but to “move to the action necessary to legally seat the Third World Caucus.” You can buckle your swash Thursday and Friday in the Conference Theatre with the capable help of Ruchard Lester's The Four Musketeers.

Several chain stores responded to the actions by obtaining a show-cause order Irom State A police crackdown on alleged violators of New York State’s 300-year-old “blue law” resulted the cultural consciousness JLSA heightens The Jewish Law Student Association (JLSA), organized only last year by six law students, has greatly increased its membership and activity in 1975. The JLSA was formed to heighten Jewish “culture consciousness” among students at the School of Law and to advocate Jewish academic and cultural interests within the School. Members of the organization apply legal skills to the problems of the Jewish community, and also try to encourage other minority student organizations interested in social change. Additionally, the JLSA tries to encourage dialogue about current problems in the Middle East, and vehemently opposes anti-Semitism at home. Diversity The JLSA is chartered by the Law School Student Bar Association (SBA) and is supposed to be open to all political views, as well as a diversity of religious orientation, from traditional orthodox to athiest. Last year, JLSA tried to amend the Law School’s calendar to include observance of important Jewish holidays, and also conducted a series of classes for the study of Talmudic Law. The organization has also asked the police department to investigate an anti-semitic remark allegedly made by a police officer to attorney William Kunstler. In addition to last year’s activities, JLSA is working to have kosher food made available in campus vending machines, and sponsoring speakers, such as noted linguist and American foreign policy critic Noam Chomsky. Supreme Court Justice John H. Doerr. District Attorney Edward Cosgrove, Erie County Sheriff Michael Amico, and other county law enforcement heads were ordered to show cause why they should not be prevented from enforcing the Sunday sales prohibition.

Most involve the fact that today's listening tastes and toward more volume with less distortion than the typical low efficiency speaker system can deliver with amplifiers of moderate size. As evidence of this fact, witness the recent popularity of super-powered amplifiers in home music systems. Several hundred watts of amplifier power used to be regarded a frivolous excess., but tests have confirmed Pionneer PL50 JBL 88 EPI 10 - Dual 1219 that these power levels are a practical necessity for faithful reproduction of modern recordings with low efficiency speakers. Unfortunately, very few of these speakers can withstand such high power operation for long. High efficiency speakers offer an economical way out of this dilemma.

Farrington, continually Beard, Charles accused younger and radical (“New Left”) historians of being that is, too “Present-minded” accused them of writing history with preconceptions about the present (and future) which shaded their notions of what happened in the past. In a 100-page argument, even steadied by an impressive ballast of 305 overwhelming footnotes, Dr. Lemisch dismisses - - — this illusion of neutrality. On Active Service appears to‘ be more fair with its opponents were with than opponents American historians who are, like Lemisch, young and radical. (One conservative critic, in language that became familiar in wider circles in the Sixties, characterized these young scholars as “negative” and “bellicose” and claimed they “an striking merely were adolescent blow for independence” in criticizing the New Deal.) At least Lemisch takes pains to make it clear that he is the so much criticizing not substance of what his (generally older) colleagues are saying, but criticizing their he is that insistence that they are saying it of political from positions lapses in “voice” when the justice and compelling evidence for his argument here and there outraces the impulse within a calm to put everything and orderly (even frame vork.

The offense is not having such a wonderful day. Oh well, wait until next year when everybody is Editorial Conflicting interests healthy A discussion of the Student Association Record Coop "mysteriously" made its way onto the agenda of the College Council meeting Mondr.y afternoon. The College Council of this University is comprised primarily of Western New York businessmen who have the power to deny or approve any space allocations on campus. Additionally, the body can draw up regulations governing the behavior of students and approve major plans for the University. This week's meeting should be of particular interest to all students. Keeping the Council's far-reaching powers in mind, the members agreed unanimously to try to influence President Ketter to keep the Record Coop permanently off campus. Our one champion at the meeting, SA Director of Student Affairs Steven Schwartz, found himself in the unenviable position of being the only representative present to defend the Coop against conflicting business interests. Schwartz also expressed the fear, based on other sentiments voiced by the membership, that the Council could stand in the way of establishing student services on the Amherst campus that might compete with the commercial enterprises n the planned Parcel B complex. If Schwartz' perception is it can only mean serious trouble in the future for such important services as the Record Coop, the student at all accurate, pharmacy, and the movies in the future Whether the Council's attitudes have any bearing on the Ketter administration remain to be seen. However, what we do see here is clearly an example of the type of dangerous manipulation and political maneuvering that goes on behind the locked doors of this institution. We have every reason to believe that members of the College Council adhere to the adage, "you can't tell us how to run our businesses but we can tell you how to run your University." Vet if we have learned anything from the events that took place on campus this semester (Re:the Record Coop), it is that we, as students, must arm ourselves against those forces that seek to chip away at our education and destroy our right to determine and satisfy our needs The members of the College Council see student services as undermining private enterprise and they will do everything in their power to protect their selfish interests.

Alas, they are usually not Buffalo is losing again, after making a strong comeback. Part of which, at least emotionally, involved three fumbles by Miami, that were ruled to have all occurred after the whistle was to have blown or not to have been fumbles, or whatever.

I believe that the Federal government has an obligation to financially assist New York, or any other city, state, or group that has, in it’s time, incremented the total financial well-being fo this country. My arguement with you. Mr. Cray, is one of environmental prejudices. It is very narrow-minded of you to assume that New York is the only place in this country that gives “a damn about freedom or the poor,” and you defeat the purpose of your letter by saying so.

Their situation was, and still is, as dire as yours. You serve only to further embitter and alienate them by your pompous claim to idealistic superiority. Since Buffalo’s situation so closely parallels New York’s, we are, by financial definition, predisposed to think more kindly of “The City” than most. But, Mr. Cray, you cannot win our emotional or psychological support if you strive only to underline our faults, and not to illuminate the ties between us Becky Palermo True identity The Spectrum Vol. 26, No. 44 - The advantage of writing this while the Bills are losing is clear, at least there is something external to blame my bad mood on.

In the course of his sermon on Zionism, Mr. Falk describes it as a “national liberation movement.” Although Zionism has been in existence as a political movement for 80 years, this claim was first voiced in 1968 by the 28th World Zionist Convention. It took Zionism over 70 years to discover this alleged identity. Before 1968, Zionists had no illusions about what their movement constituted, namely, a settler colonial movement. Herzl himself, the founder of political Zionism knew this quite well. He wrote to Cecil Rhodes: “Please give me a statement saying you have examined my program and found it appropriate. And why do I come to you, Mr Rhodes?, you will ask. Because my Spectrum , Dec. program is a colonial program.” Colonialism was then in vogue, and Zionism had no difficulty in recognizing its true identity. It called its first hank the Colonial Trust Company. It called its department of settlement the Department of Colonization. It called its settlements colonies. Contrary to the popular impression, Zionism does not speak for all Jews. Many prominent persons of the Jewish faith opposed and spoke-out against Zionism. Early in the 20th century persons such as the writer Ahad Ha’am, Dr. Judah Magnes, the first president of the Hebrew University, and Albert Einstein, were critical of Zionism Many American Jews, such as Rabbi Elmer Berger, founder of American Jewish Alternatives to Zionism, Moshe Menuhin, Dr Alfred Lilienthal, I F. Stone, and Noam Chomsky, to mention only a few, are critical of Zionism. Many people in the West rightly shoulder a sense of guilt for the crimes and atrocities committed against the Jews in Europe. The problem and the cruel irony, however, lie in the fact that another people, that had nothing Ip do with the sins Europeans committed, have been made to atone for them. 1 mean the Palestinian Arabs.

Dear President Ketter Leaning to the right concern public To the Editor There is a group on campus calling themselves the U S. Labor Party. This group claims to be a leftist organization, but there appears to be mounting evidence that they are in reality an extreme Tightest group, possibly CIA funded, with a smattering of true believers who act as writers or salesmen for their newspaper. New Solidarity This group has attacked affirmative action. Black Studies, all the other extreme leftist organizations, Angela Davis, LeRoi Jones, C.ay Liberation, Bella Abzug, Any person who and are pro-nuclear energy disagrees with their positions is immediately labeled as a fascist or a CIA agent by them. At SUNY at Buffalo they have threatened professors and their families, and only those with liberal tendencies, haphazardly accusing them of being CIA agents and creating false stories This intimidation of liberal professors and their families is a tactic reminiscent of the National Socialists in Germany used during the rise of Nazism. They also make allusions to a leftist-Jewish conspiracy. Sound familiar? They have aligned themselves with the Soviet Union, a nation which is a poor example of true communism and a nation with which other leftist groups seek to avoid being identified. 1 his group has also reportedly beaten with chains members of the U S. Communist Party in New York City. They also focus their attack on Rockefeller, who is much hated by the extreme left, but equally so by the extreme right. In one section of their literature they complain that Rocky engineered a plot to rid America of Nixon as its president. What other leftist organizations can one think of that complain of being nd of Richard Nixon’’ They have claimed that their newspaper, New Solidarity is solely funded on the revenue collected by its sale yet such a paper published as often as New Solidarity could never sustain itself solely on the funds collected for its sale. One must ask where all the other money is coming from? All their policies, attacks, and accusations may be received more sympathetically on campus because they are coming from an organization which claims to be leftist. If such statements and attacks were made by a known right-wing organization, they would be less believable on campus. Hence, this is using the cover of a leftist organization. There remains a slight possibility that this organization is a genuine leftist group which merely seeks to wipe out all other elements of the left. Nonetheless, whomever they might be, they are definitely the most sensationalist, misinformed, authoritarian group of liars I have ever encountered on campus since the National White People s Parly formed in Buffalo , Stephen M Knaster The GSA has repeatedly expressed to you its and dismay about the decision by some officials to dismantle the public higher education system that New York State has built over the past few decades. At its November meeting, the Graduate Student Senate resolved to do what it could to maintain the progress that has been made in improving the quality of public graduate education and in opening graduate education to a broader cross-section of the public. The Senate at the same time resolved to solicit your help in directing our efforts. The complete text of the Senate’s resolution is enclosed. As you can see from the text, the Senate essentially is requesting two things. First, we ask for as complete a report on the nature of the crisis as you can give us. This is absolutely necessary if students are going to take an informed and responsible position. If we arc kept in ignorance, we are de facto prevented from participating in the debate over the University’s future. Until now, we have received only informal remarks from you concerning the crisis and what can be done about it. Second, the Senate asks that you take a first affirmative step towards redressing the University’s crisis by convening at SUNY/B-wide Committee to coordinate actions in defense of public higher education. As President of this University, it is your responsibility to initiate work on a plan according to which the University can justify and defend itself in the face of the anti-popular pressures favoring its dismemberment. As long as you withhold your leadership from the efforts to defend the University, efforts will remain all student and faculty fragmentary, particularistic and hence ineffectual. We firmly believe that the maintenance of a first-rate public University is in the interest of the people of New York. In fact it should be their right. Those who favor the denigration of this University are working against the interests of the public, and we as University members should not be afraid to speak out against this anti-popular movement. We hope you will adopt a strong and prominent position in defense of the University and the public interest. Terry DiFilippo President Graduate Student Association No charity intended To the Editor At this time of the year many individuals and to sell goods and services. There are some people on this campus who are doing so under the pretense of a “church work.” This pretense needs to be exposed so that the people of the campus community know from whom they are buying, if they do so, and to whom the money goes. The “parent” group is called “The Unification Church," though it has some reported 40 different “offspring” organizations. The one most frequent on campus is “Collegiate Association for the Research of Principles” (CARP). All of these are founded by, belong to, and exist for the “Rev." Sun Myung Moon. It is my strong conviction (and of many others) that the Unification Church is in no way a legitimate church, but only a front for money making for the personal pleasures and very questionable activities of Sun Moon SUNY/Albany has had a recent experience with CARP and decided not to recognize the group. The NBC Weekend show had an indepth expose of this “church” earlier this the year. Many other articles have questioned of the “Moonies.” There has been practices consistent evidence of a “brainwashing” technique used on young "converts.” What youth have escaped from the Barrytown “training” center, have been described unsure of their as “spaced-out,” whereabouts, and generally disoriented with reality Strong substances of questionable composition are known to be distributed to the “trainees.” And why groups seek the primary, if not only, emphasis on youth ot impressionable ages who are asked to give all their wealth to Moon, and go out to “sell” to get more money for Moon? Moon’s own writings have stated his desire to “rule the world.” And he is quickly a vast empire of wealth gathered by his amassing “converts” who seek donations, or sell flowers, candy, bubble gum, or anything, for any amount of money they can get And these people are active on and near campus right now, and the students need to know to what especially siftce it they are giving their money quite often is “said” to be going to some “good ministry” like “youth work” or “drug abuse" aid. But nothing I have read, heard or seen yet has ever suggested or demonstrated any real programs of this “church.” They claim to be “Christians”, but Christians believe that a tree is judged by its fruits, and the only "fruits” Moon has to offer are two mansions worth S 1,475,000 and a training center of very questionable practices. There are no programs, no buildings serving the community, no work for those in need, no feeding the hungry, water for the thirsty, clothes for the naked, etc. In short, there is no evidence that suggests it is anything but a is money-making rip-off. please So will you constituency so report this t3 your the campus will know what is happening.

Working in and around the state hospital at Salem, Oregon (whose superintendent, Dr. Dean Brooks, does beautifully as McMurphy’s convincingly unconvincing psychiatrist), Forman has assembled the most creditable'bunch of crazies since Peter Brook’s Marat/Sade. The Czech director (Fireman's Ball, Loves of a Blonde) is best at peeling away the thick layers of hypocrisy and absurdity encrusting the various institutions around which we build our lives; getting from those to the corresponding layers surrounding a “real” institution seems relatively simple.

The Barta Ballet Company, under the personal direction of Karoly Barta, internationally known choreographer, will bring its full-length performance of The Nutcracker to Buffalo for one performance only in the Villa Maria College Auditorium at 240 Pine Ridge Road on Friday. December 19 at 7 p.m. The Nutcracker , a Christmas fantasy set to the music of Tchaikovsky, is the Barta Ballet’s debut full-scale production. The company combines professional dancers with young performers from this community. Tickets for their performance are now on sale at the Statler Hilton Hotel and all other Festival outlets. Prices are $5 for orchestra seats, $4 if you don’t mind the balcony. IF WE LOOK DIFFERENT TO YOU BLAME CHRISTMAS is a perfect hero, so is Jack loud, obnoxious, McMurphy keep down for very long. (Who return from a series of shock treatments to announce, “They’ve been giving me 10,000 watts a day and I’m hot to trot. Next woman takes me on’s gonna light up like a pinball machine although Nurse and pay off in silver dollars!” Hatched, of course, does not, but then that wasn’t exactly what he meant.) His is the sort of larger-than-life character to whom legendary status comes easily; it is no accident that the film, which must necessarily use real people to represent the figures Kesey leaves to the imagination of the reader, is set in Oregon, land of Paul Bunyan and the tall tale. But the sense of humor Nicholson projects in movies like Carnal Knowledge and The Last Detail is, like McMurphy’s, a slightly perverse but very human and that humor seems perfectly fitted to the perverse bit of humanity on which he tries it out here. Brad Dourif as the stuttering Billy Bibbit, William Redfield as Harding, Will Sampson’s Chief Bromden (although his original function of silent narrator has been taken away), and all the rest of the inmates are terrific, all come to life exactly as Kesey drew them. Louise Fletcher’s Miss Hatched, a character almost as awesome as McMurphy in the novel, is reduced here to little more than your garden-variety castrating bitch, but Fletcher nevertheless does well with what she is given. Ah, but if only Ken Kesey could make his own — Because our walls Are Bulging With A Truly Marvelous Variety Of... — McMurphy brings to a head R.D. Laing’s (and Kesey’s) most crucial issue: Who really are the “crazy” ones? Is the Big Nurse, Miss Hatched, with her sadistic, voyeuristic “therapy” sessions and her waltz records during “Medication Time,” any less loony than her intimidated patients or her high-spirited nemesis? Who deserves to be put away, and who should be allowed to do the putting? Played out The questions with which Kesey plays so provocatively in his novel are hinted at briefly, if at all, in Milos Forman’s film of Cuckoo’s Nest. But as was while the movie is not good Kesey demonstrated a couple of years ago in the filmed version of his epic-sized Sometimes a Great Notion , the novelist works on so many different levels of physical and emotional experience at once that most — HOLIDAY GIFTS We Have Ever Offered With More Arriving Daily And In Every Price Category. • — movies . . • • ARTS CRAFTS ARTS MARTIAL OmtUmgALitmatan & GOURMET COOKING^ • • • HOUSE PLANTS WniAJIAcoatonmmad BONSAI (Mimttun Ported T*m) CHINA Op* -Smear, • TmSatM f^TherelSa^ difference!!! • ! • : : : : • that are • constantly updated # Small classes Center open days evenings & weekends Complete tape facilities for reviews of dass lessons and for use of supplementary materials Make-ups for missed lessons at our • center NATL M Lros : :NATL DEI al rns: : LOCATIONS IN J MANHATTAN.

Wednesday, 10 December 1975 �Basketball Bulls bounce Siena, 103 94 by Paige Miller with him. “That way there’s not too much pressure on either of us,” he said. Assistant Sports Editor Four comers success The basketball Bulls finally put it all together Monday night with their first win of the season, beating Siena 103 94 at Clark Hall. It was a very satisfying win for Buffalo, since as Bulls coach Leo Richardson said, “They’re as strong as any Division I team.” (Siena is in Both of the Bulls guards played the entire game, which, in part led Richardson to employ his “Four-corner offense” for the first time this year. Basically, the Four-corner offense is a stalling maneuver, and Richardson did not want his guards to get tired. Also, the Bulls were not moving on offense in the first half when Richardson first used the new strategy. The stall was successful in the first half, and Richardson returned to it in the second half, but the second time around it worked for a different reason than expected. “We had a one-point lead and we still weren’t moving,” Richardson explained. “Then when we went back to our normal patterns, it confused them.” Later, with under two minutes to go, the Four-corners offense helped preserve the lead, and caused Siena to commit a couple of costly fouls while trying to get the ball back. - Division II). Like the Syracuse game of last week, Buffalo was able to open a wide lead, with Siena coming back and moving ahead 87 86 on a lay-up by Tim Welchons with about five minutes left. “We never should have been in that position," said Richardson. “Our guards didn’t take care of it 11he lead | . They stopped doing what got them the lead and just went haywire.” Cooper calls signals But that’s where the similarity between the two games ended With George Cooper now running the offense instead of guard Gary Domzalski, the Bulls managed to fight off the Indian’s charge and then scored eight straight points with under four minutes remaining to put the game Bullish rebounding The Bulls’ front line also played a large role in the vicotry. Sam Pellom, the Buffalo center, once again dominated the boards and the scoring before fouling out. Forwards Vernell Washington and Sam Robinson also helped Pellom underneath, and the three-some combined out of reach. “Cooper did the things tonight that he should have done at Syracuse,” Richardson noted. “He won the game for us.” Domzalski, who also knows something about running the Bulls offense, remarked, “Coop did it all tonight.” Cooper finished with 27 points, high for the Bulls. Cooper himself didn’t seem to mind the switch from being “the other guard” to the team’s ballhandler. “I can play either way,” he said. But he was glad to have Domzalski, also an excellent ballhandler, in the backcourt to block 14 shots. Domzalski also pulled down ten rebounds, as the Bulls grabbed sixteen more rebounds than Siena, many coming on the offensive boards. Richardson was obviously pleased with the game. “Our kids didn’t quit,” he said. He also said that Buffalo’s four junior college transfers (Cooper, Washington, Robinson and back-up center Hric Spence) looked “great.” The night’s preliminary game saw the junior varsity Bulls win their second game out of three, downing Rosary Hill 54-42. It was the Baby Bulls’ defense which enabled them to come back from a half-time deficit. Rosary Hill managed to score only twelve points in the second half, and the Bulls won going away. Buffalo’s offense was a little weak with only one double-figure socrer guard Don Scott, who had 29 points. The key factor might have been the play of guard Sterling Hedley. “He’s the shortest guy out there, but he had more rebounds than anyone else [on Buffalo)said JV coach Matt Fischei. “He was really hustling.” The Bulls varsity travels to Loretto, Pennsylvania to play St. Francis today, and Saturday night they return to action at the Memorial Auditorium against Army. The Bulls beat both teams last year. — J. V. Bulls lose to Griffs in hoop contest by Ira A.

If they played a regular hockey game, then we could’ve beaten them.” A step up The caliber of hockey played in the ECAC is different than what the “kiddies corps” is used to. Prior to coming to the Bulls, each played in a different type of league, and each was a successful scorer in their past endeavors. Patterson, a Rochester, N.Y’ native, played his last hockey with the Rochester Monarchs, a junior team in the New York-Penn league. In Rochester, Patterson was used to a high pitched “skate, skate, skate” type of offense, as opposed to the more restricted defensive hockey that the ECAC features. Grow, who has played hockey for eleven years, hails from Massena, N.Y., where he played on the starboard side for Holy Family High School. Brien came to the University of Buffalo this year after Ed Wright contacted him last April, and advised him of the advantages Buffalo has to offer. Wright had previously lured Patterson out of Rochester to skate for the Bulls.

It was nearly empty. The podium at the opposite side seemed miles away, the shallow half-circle of chairs fronting it seemed vastly empty, and the scattering of people in those chairs seemed tiny and statue-like. Off to one side, a janitor swept an empty aisle, then strolled idly to the floor microphone in the center and tapped it on the head. Somewhere amplifier scratched. The microphone was on.

If such proposals should be instituted, students would be required to courses, lake a number of required English including expository writing. composition or Leslie Fiedler, chairman of the English nationally-known Department and a literary figure, states, “Good writing is never taught in one course or one department; it is a product of the entire university. Either everyone wants it and but then demands it, or else they don’t they blame it on the English Department.” Hidden priorities Fiedler says the English Department has not yet lost any full-time faculty to budget cuts, but if the current fiscal situation continues, he feels one might discover what to study important are of administrators, and which ones aren’t. While there has been a decline in the areas number of English majors here, said Fiedler, there has, nevertheless, been an increase in the number of non-majors taking 200-level English courses. In particular, said Fiedler, there has been a heavy demand for composition, expository writing, and creative writing classes, and a growing interest in starting some kind of program in journalism. Earlier this semester, the Office of Admissions and Records reported that 200-level English courses, especially were the composition, second most only by exceeded courses, in-demand evening management sections. Despite the increased demand, there do not seem to be any plans for providing funds so that more 200devel sections can be offered, according to offoicials in the English Department and the Faculty of Arts ahd Letters. When asked to characterize the state of the humanities both at this University and nationally, Fiedler said the picture is lull of contradictions. Nationally, he said, there has been a decline in English and language majors, and thus in the number of t+iose who will be involved in literature on the professional level. On the other hand, there has been a concurrent trend towards demand for English courses by non-majors. Fiedler sees this as an attempt by student' and teachers involved in other disciplines to broaden their knowledge as well as to learn technical writing skills. Conflict conflict the and “practical" areas such as Traditionally, there has been a between the supposedly more humanities pre-professional or professional programs, Fiedler continued. This is particularly true at this University, he said, because it has a long tradition of professional education, but also has several strong departments in including the humanities, English Department. schools and “The professional departments have a little more clout,” he said, “because they have strong links with professionals in their field and in the community. Additionally, they can point to reports of their profession’s accrediting agency to emphasize their need for increased funding. But, said Fiedler, President Robert Ketter indicated he plans to shift recourses away from weaker programs to programs that are already strong. The nationally renowned English Department is one of this University’s strongest programs. Humanities on the bottom then-Academic Affairs Vice In President Bernard Gelbaum drew heavy criticism for ranking the humanities as the lowest priority in a proposed University academic plan. T he plan, which was never passed, gave highest priority for funding and attention to applied research in the social sciences, followed by fundamental research in the naturals sciences, the professional disciplines, and finally, the humanities (including Philosophy, which is technically considered a social science). Within each group, priorities were ranked in the following order: Social Sociology, Sciences; Psychology, Geography, Economics, Anthropology, Natural Sciences; Political Science. Chemistry, departments), (now Biology two Geology (augmented by Planetary Science and Astroscience), Statistics, Mathematics, Computer Science and Physics. Professions; Engineering, Architecture/Environmental Design, School of Management, Law, Education, Social Policy and Community Services, School of Information and Library language Sciences. Humanities - departments (including English), “classics literature” (including the program in Comparative Literature) and Linguistics, History, Music, Art and Photographic Studies and Philosophy. Food for the mind The plan elicited a predictable outcry from many faculty members, especially in departments considered by Gelbaum to be low priorities. The History Department in a unanimous vote condemned the plan, and the Philosophy Department prepared a long report to rebut Gelbaum’s assertion that its discipline was “Food for the mind a luxury rather than a necessity.” History Professor William Allen, in an address to the Faculty Senate in 1972, took issue with the call Gelbaum made for the University to provide specific services to the Buffalo area because “we owe it to those who pay us.” Allen said, “The notion that the University is up for sale to the and highest bidder as a service institution after certainly implied all, a is, that is revolutionary concept in the history of Western civilization, though I admit it has also been a long-standing temptation.

This article decision-making discusses processes and ownership of the mass media, and its relationship to U.S. domestic and foreign policy. by Paul Krehbiel ContributingEditor The general current running throughout James Aronson’s book, The Press and the Cold War , is that the mass media and government see communism as the biggest threat to our nation. While the press usually doesn’t openly express itself in this preferring instead to fashion project the image o f objectivity the government, and neutrality — # - large and, course, of privately-owned corporations and businesses, do. Yet the mass media has not limited its biases and distortions to involving only news items many other sectors communists of society have suffered a similar fate. Robert Cirino, author of Power to Persuade documents over 100 case studies of powerful American media decision-makers in the act of censoring, and distorting fabricating a wide range of news - , events. Women, blacks and other nationally oppressed peoples, workers, youth and students have of media been victims mistreatment. Coverage of the professions, medicine, science and technology, election campaigns and political parties, social decay and crime, space travel, the arts and entertainment have suffered media inaccuracies as well. Naughty word Cirino relates one example from the I930’s. Thomas Parron, New York health commissioner in I 934, was asked to talk on a network radio program on Public Health Needs. Specifically, he was to discuss syphilis, without using the word! Because Parron didn’t feel that he could deal with the topic adequately without naming it, he refused to delete it. The station cancelled his appearance and announced it could not begin the program due to “circumstances beyond our control.” Finally, In 1936, most stations were forced to use the word when doctors spoke on their programs though Associated Press held out until I 938. Women are slighted by the media when they are referred to by their marital status or appearance, rather than their occupation or talent as most men usually are. When the U.S. was in Vietnam, the American the media told people that the Army had just carried out "nontoxic resources which meant that control” chemical defoliation or crop destruction had taken place. The Air Force reportedly engaged in “area denial” - which meant that anti-personnel bombs and napalm was used to force people out of - 14214. Telephone: Second class postage Buffalo, New York. at year. stated: headline “Reischauer Critical of Viet Policy," while the Washington Post headlined the talk; “Reischauer backs U.S. Viet Policy.” In 1970, an Associated Press Times correspondent in Saigon sent in a dispatch about American troops looting stores and houses in Cambodia. Girino recalls that Wes Gallagher, general manager of AP deleted this episode, and the foreign editor wired the Saigon correspondent that we (AP) “must guard our copy to see that it is down the middle and subdues emotion.” Yet, crimes, real or alleged, committed by the other side were frequently given front page billing. It is probably true that the Liberation Front of National South Vietnam and the North Vietnamese tried and executed certain village leaders. But the mass media failed to tell the American people that these men were responsible for the arrest, torture and murder of scores of people who refused to submit to Saigon rule, as documented by the journalist Wilfred Burchett. Hot stuff The press knew about the March 16, 1968 My Lai massacre many they months before were publicized. Look, Life. Newsweek. United Press International (UPI), Association Press /AP a television network and newspapers in New York and Boston refused to run the story when offered to them by the Vietnam veteran, Ron Ridenhour It was only after Dispatch News Service broke the on story November 13, 1969 a year and a half after the massacre that the other news media picked it up. At this point, some of the news disseminators became more and more critical of the war. But this position was taken only because the U.S. was losing, and because it was costing too much, wasting so many American lives, and creating such widespread opposition among American youth. Nowhere did the media write that the U.S. was supporting a hated dictatorship in Saigon against a popular liberation movement. The media knew about 1972 election. While McGovern the Party Democratic attempted to raise it during the campaign, little publicity or credence was given to it. Only after Nixon was and elected,. disillusionment with him grew, did the media and Senate give it wide coverage. Even then it was due largely to the hard and persistent work of two journalists, Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of the Washington Post. Yet at this point, Nixon had become a liability the and to the smooth functioning of the country, due to his unpopular actions in Southeast Asia and his handling of domestic economic problems and internal dissent. I Cirino pointed out that ABC cancelled a half-time performance about peace during a football game at the State University in Buffalo in 1970, but ran a performance about U.S, commando raids into North Vietnam during a half-time show at another game. Almost every major newspaper received a report about a planned U.S. invasion of Cuba in late I960 and early 196 I, yel none published it. In 1961, the CIA and military group a of Cuban helped counter-revolutionaries invade Cuba at Playa Giron, resulting in scores of deaths and injuries. the 1971, In January Black Congressional Caucus requested from CBS, NBC and ABC, equal time under'the Fairness Doctrine to reply to President Nixon’s State of the Union message. three networks All refused The are almost examples endless. While some misrepresentation is likely to occur under the most equitable, honest and efficient news operation, the examples revealed by Cirino, Aronson and others are scandalous.

Eisenhower later admitted in his book, Mandate for Change, that “possibly 80 percent of the people would have voted for the communist Ho Chi Minh.” The United States government leaders probably knew this years earlier, but had other reasons for going into Vietnam. On August 4, 1953, President Eisenhower told a conference of U.S. governors in Seattle the real reasons for entering the war on the side of the former colonial power, France: “Now let us assume that we lost Indochina . . .

While the bast majority of the people in South Vietnam suffered under worsening economic conditions, due to inflation, unemployment and the war, many American corporations were making gigantic American businesses profits, looked to Vietnam as a source of cheap raw materials, cheap labor and new foreign markets.

The course will discuss the social realities which send women to prison, and the techniques that women use to survive the prison situation. “There are different reasons why women are sent to prison, as opposed to why are sent to prison,” she said. Course requirements include, student participation in a volunteer project associated with a jail, detention center, or the Buffalo Women’s Prison Project, This type of work will be arranged by the student, with the aid of WSC. “Women have been ‘locked up’ in various ways throughout history,” Porter stated. “The course will attempt to determine what kind of social realities caused this.” “Women Locked Up” will also consider the living conditions for women in prisons. “Over 80 percent of women incarcerated have children. We want to explore the forces which affect their children’s lives as well,” she said. men Other courses The historical and social experiences of women will be considered a course designed to in “Social History of Women in the U.S. 1875 focus on the social expectations and limitations under which women lived I 00 years ago. According to one student, Sheryl Karp, the course “will look at the ideologies affecting women of all creeds and nationalities from 1865 through the present day.” The course will place a special emphasis on women in Buffalo and the roles that they played in the development of culture and business in Buffalo. Other Women’s Studies College courses open to everyone include “The Psychology of Women: Toward A New Self-Concept,” a course centering on possible psychological differences between men and women in American culture. “Women and the Welfare System,” “Women in Film,” “Black Matriarchy,” and “The Politics of Health” are other Spring Semester offerings of Women’s Studies College.

HeroMing Rosenberg spy case Son speaks of witch hunt by Rob Cohen Spectrum Staff Writer The controversial 1953 execution of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg as “atomic spies” was the subject of a lecture by one of the Rosenberg’s two surviving sons, Michael Meeropol, in the Fillmore Room last supposed to be the focal point of the trial. Only when they refused to involve others was the spotlight turned on them. Also, the Rosenbergs invoked their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination when they were asked whether they were members of the Communist Party, which “probably sealed their fate.” Wednesday. Rosenbergs, who were convicted of conspiracy to commit espionage after a long and empassioned trial, had allegedly betrayed the “secret” of the atom bomb to the Russians. However, Meeropol asserted that his parents were the innocent victims of the anti-communist hysteria which swept the country during the “McCarthy Era,” and he summarily dismissed what he called the “phony issue” of the theft of the atom bomb secret. Many top scientists have in fact denied that this secret has ever really existed, Meeropol claimed. He called his parent's trial a government frameup which was guilt on false evidence and perjured testimony. Meeropol maintained that the Rosenberg case is a sensational example of an intensive effort, typical of those conducted by the government during the Red-scare years of the late 1940’sand early 1950’s. The Brainwashed These government campaigns were designed to frame “recognizable leftists as spies" and thus discredit the Left, he explained. Meeropol wants his parents' case reopened and has already been successful in securing the release of 29,000 pages of relevent FBI tiles. He believes that the files will verify both his parents' innocence and the intricately contrived government frameup. Following World War 11, the American people were brainwashed into believing that domestic radicalism and foreign (especially Communist) espionage were somehow linked, Meeropol charged, adding that the reopening of the case would expose this brainwashing at its roots. He said that through a deliberate pattern of perjured testimony induced through coercion of individuals by the governmentand trial presentation of knowingly false evidence, government prosecutors hoped to create “the biggest spy case in United States history." Aided by a massive smear campaign in the press, the Rosenbergs, Alger Hiss and others were framed in this way, Meeropol asserted. Psychopathic liar Briefly recounting the case, he explained that Harry Gold, a Philadelphia chemist, whom he labeled a “psychopathic liar,” had confessed to being the courier for the notorious Russian undercover agent, Klaus Fuchs. Gold informed the FBI that David Greenglass, Ethel’s brother, was one of his contacts and Greenglass later implicated both of the Rosenbergs in the conspiracy by advancing “phony” evidence, he said. Greenglass, a wartime machinist at the Los Alamos nuclear test installation in New Mexico, promptly cooperated with the government authorities who had acquired knowledge of his prior criminal dealings in contraband. After the Rosenbergs were implicated, they refused to cooperate with the FBI, which motivated the government to hold the death sentence over their heads in hopes of making them talk_ Meeropol said his parents were not originally Table spy He described a whole gamut of judicial improprieties and fabrications in an attempt to convince the audience that the affair was really a frameup and that he was not “merely spouting rhetoric,” including a prosecution claim that a certain table in the Rosenberg’s possession purchased at Macy’s for $21.00 was actually a gift of the Russians to be used for the processing of microfilms. A pre-trial remark by presiding Judge Irving Kaufman that he was willing to use the death sentence if warranted by the evidence reflects his prejudicial attitude and complicity with the government, Meeropol claimed. “The judge was a second prosecutor.” Additionally, the recently released government files showed that the Atomic Energy Commission (AEC) released classified information to make it appear that sensitive atomic secrets were stolen, Meeropol said. There are “some striking parallels between my parents’ example and current political prisoner cases," such as Martin Sostre. Sostre. while serving a twelve-year prison term on a narcotics conviction, kicked his drug habit, adopted the Muslim faith and became a spokesman for prisoner’s rights. Jailhouse lawyer Following hts release from prison in 1965, Sostre opened an Afro-American bookstore in Buffalo, whereupon he was continuously harassed by the police, Meeropol explained. During the black ghetto riots of 1967 here, Sostre was charged with inciting to not and illegal sale of heroin. The first charge was eventually dropped, but he was convicted on the heroin count. During his incarceration, Sostre became a jailhouse lawyer representing prisoner’s rights, which infuriated prison authorities. In 1971 he successfully represented himself in the landmark case Sostre t’. Rockefeller in which the court held that extended subjection of prisoners-to solitary confinement was “cruel and unusual punishment" and therefore unconstitutional. Also in 1971, the trigger man who was the principal witness against Sostre at his heroin trial retracted his testimony in a group therapy session. One day stay After Soslre was denied retrial by a Federal District court judge who justified his decision in language very similar to the denial in the Hurricaine Carter case, Meeropol explained, Sostre appealed to a higher court. Ironically, however, the Circuit Court of Appeals judge who refused to overturn the District Court decision was the same Judge Kaufman who invoked the death penalty on the Rosenbergs. In tribute to the former United States Supreme Court Justice William O. Douglas, Meeropol said Douglas acted unilaterally to stay the Rosenberg execution after a stay was defeated in a 5-4 decision by the full Court. Although Douglas was subsequently overruled by the Full Court, he succeeded in delaying the execution by one day. Monday, 8 December 1975 . The Spectrum .

Monday, 8 December 1975 �Don Fogelberg: the superb mix of three great musicians by Barbara Romansky Spectrum Music Staff I used soldier to think of myself as a Holding his own .against odds impossible outnumbered, and Badly ina caught crossfire Of devils and gods All I ever wanted to be was free All I ever looked for was ft hat was within my eyes to see “These Days” by Dan Fogelberg A few weeks ago, while reading Phonograph Record magazine, 1 came upon an ad that read “Every so often, the Rock and Roll matrix turns up someone very special. At the moment, possibly no one fulfills the promise more than Dan Fogelberg.” Indeed. Or is that “Really?” Who is Dan Fogelberg? That question was so oft-asked in my high school that we deemed it suitable yearbook copy. To clarify, Dan Fogelberg is a Joni singer-songwriter cum Mitchell, Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther. Ho hum. But wait what’s that song you keep hearing on QFM with the really nice piano intro? What’s that single with the chorus “Love when you can, cry when you have to . . .?” Really hummable. Who was the guy with the beard that opened up the last tour? That’s Dan Eagles Fogelberg? Hey, he’s not even bad! He certainly isn’t. As a matter of fact, he’s one of the best of the new composer-performer breed the seventies have produced. the mellow Evolving from Nashville production Home Free the almost totally solo to Captured Angel , Fogelberg demands more attention at each — endeavor. Dan Fogelberg writes and performs what he refers to as haunted country music synthesis of the feeling of an environment.” Home hree, his first album, came as a result of his background and past experiences. A man of Illinois, Dan terminated his art studies at the University there and headed west. In California, Fogelberg discovered a few things: The Troubadour, Hollywood, and how much he hated that particular lifestyle. ‘The River,” an autobiographical song dedicated to his home, was written at this time: How I longed for the waters As the fire raged How I longed for the river As I aged Dan’s next big move was to Nashville, where he began to hang out with Norbert Putnam, Kenny Buttrey and David Briggs, all Neil Young alumni. The results of these comfortable sessions were prosperious. Aside from Home found Free's release, Dan Azoff, Azoff. at super-manager Irv the time, was employed by Lookout Management, David Geffen’s old company (and we all the know about David Geffen wunderkind of the music business). Azoff guided him through a production that reflected the styles of his three mentors; Joni Mitchell, Neil Young and Richie Furay, of Souther-Hillman-Furay, Poco and the legendary Buffalo Springfield. One track, “More Than Ever,.’ sounded so much like Furay that 1 falsely delighted a Furay-Freak by causing her to — believe album. slightly several “Stars” he had released his solo Lyrically, the album was weak, but it did produce strong tracks, the lovely among them: And it’s getting easier each day To weep aboutyou Harder every night to sleep without you How many years must I be driven By this dream of love with you? ‘Souvenirs’ More importantly, Dan’s move to Azoff connected him with Joe Walsh, who had dropped out of the James Gang and was playing with the likes of Steve Stills and the Eagles. A friendship developed and it was decided that Walsh Souvenirs, produce would Fogelberg’s upcoming LP. In the meantime, Dan busied himself with singing on Eric Andersen’s You, Jackson Be True to Browne’s Late For the Sky, and Walsh’s own So What? no hype. With almost Souvenirs was released in October 1974. On it were none but the best: Russ Kunkel on drums, Joe Lala on percussion, Pul Harris covering keyboards, Kenny Passarelli, a long time cohort of Walsh on bass, various Eagles and Graham Nash singing harmony vocals, Gerry Beckley of America giving a little assistance, Al Perkins and Walsh handling every conceivable string instrument, including lead, pedal steel and banjo. Fogelberg played acoustic and electric guitars, piano, organ, moog, percussion and handled all lead vocals. It was quite an line-up. The impressive ran the gamut of compositions beautiful ballands (“Souvenirs,” “Song From Half Mountain”) to rock and roll (“As the Raven Flies,” (Someone’s Been] Telling You Stories”) to bluegrass jams (“Morning Sky”) to the powerful “Illinois,” dedicated to his birthplace: Flat on the prairie Soil and stone Stretching forever Taking me home ’Cause I got a woman Who waits for me there And I need a breath of that Sweet country air the aid of a completely kidding aside) cover photo and some local airplay, the album caught like wildfire. Record store chains like Sam Goody’s began printing ads in the New York Times worded “Join the Dan Fogelberg cult Music’s latest sensation.” Then the Eagles stepped into the With mesmerizing (all - picture Career lift Introduced by mutual manager Azoff, Fogelberg was chosen to open for the Eagles on their summer 1975 tour. Playing 56 sold-out concerts is a great asset to anyone’s career, and nothing could have helped Dan more. Of course, one great disadvantage is the audience’s constant raving for the headliner. No problem Fogelberg sparkled, aided by Fool’s Gold, his back-up. He was called back for an encore almost as loudly as the Eagles and caused the crowd to roar with delight when he returned to sing and play piano during “Best of My Love.” In July, the Eagles and Fogelbert went their separate ways. The Eagles continued in their usual style, and Fogelberg toured selected dates in a bus. One hot night, the Eagles played at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City. Fogelberg was opening that evening for Hot Tuna in Asbury Park, and rumors flew thickly about his possible presence at the Eagles show. Not only did he show, but was accompanied by his buddies Walsh and Souther. No longer did people ask “Who’s that?” It wasn’t even necessary for Glenn Frey to say “Here’s our good friend, Dan Fogeljperg.” All 35,000 of us knew here was the brightest new talent in a genre that’s glutted with hypes. “Practice makes perfect” goes the old saying, and Fogelberg’s long efforts have resulted in one of the best albums of 1975. In description, Glenn Frey once called Captured Angel" . . . real pretty. Danny’s doing some real nice things now." Thanks, Glenn, but that line defines understatement. Dan's latest release is a veritable masterpiece, with all instruments and vocals done by Fogelberg himself. The only exceptions are David Findley on fiddle, old standby Kunkel on drums and J.D. Souther doing background vocals on a track entitled “Next Time.” I have seen audiences captivated by opening acts, but never by those who chose to open with a new song. “Next Time” was employed in this situation, and never — - sounded better continued on page 1 Monday, 8 December 1975 .

When budget cuts were announced this past summer, though, they followed some of the plan. While faculty dismissals by not filling vacant positions, two out of three part-time faculty were laid off in the History Department (the other was a lecturer in Adult Education), and two out of three faculty full-time laid off were in Philosophy (the other was in Sociology).

The of this time literature The characteristically centers on families dominated by the father He was “the one to fear, to fight, to yearn for the approval of,” but at the same time crush of an alien American society left “many of these fathers in a somewhat fragile condition While the strengths were “moral,” the weaknesses of this father-centered time were ” "psychic.” With coming second-generation prosperity (many men were ‘‘lucky,’' Ms. Decter said), the father was no longer the “magnetic center” of “Making a living” household. provided him with “society, a place m the world . . . The household becamfc his wife’s." It was a time “manners, dominated by the graces, fantasies about another life in the future, aspirations towards the luxuries of culture." While tl\e literature of the Time of the F athers was one of “cosmic seriousness,” the literature of the lime of the Mothers was “a literature of high, or if you will, a time tomedy low metaphorically dominated by Mrs Portnoy who never "had anything on her mind for a single minute but darling, sexy, adorable, her brilliant son Alex.” In a reversal of the Time of Ihe Fathers, this new chapter in which the family was by dominated Ihe mother : including two members who carry out administrative duties. Hare told The Spectrum that he would not have resigned had the cuts been confined to one or two years. But he said he had been forced to retrench in every academic year and that '“the limits of my tolerance have been of several language departments into “modern Languages” with a single chairman.

Phillip Roth is a great literary comedian, hut literary comedy may not be great for him or. finally, forart. What about the third and final chapter? “We know what period we are in,” said the author of the recent Liberal Parents, Radical Children "We are in the period where the child is the magnetic of the household The basic facets of this latest chapter are that with the right "system." children will be “perpetually pleased with life" and that though this belief in the perfectabihty ot children is not compatible with Jewish philosophies, it is “taken center " on, propagated, broadcast, taught and worshipped by Jews," At this point, the scope ol Ms to include, implicitly, American families in general. After all. the Time of the Children, though it may complete a schema invented to illuminate the Jewish family through Jewish Decter’s talk widened literature, applies just as easily to what is lazily known these days as the Philosophy Department Chairman Peter Hare resigned two weeks ago, blasting the administration for forcing the Department to terminate the two most recently hired professors. Since the 1970-71 academic year, Hare said, the Department has been cut from 38 faculty positions to 26, marked for elimination at the same time and administrators suggested a Midge Decter Jay Friedman); and the l ime of the Child (too recent a development to have a literature or a spokesman), hach of these chapters, claims Ms. Decter, exist “not so much in historic time as in spiritual time,” Limits of tolerance averted “Youth Culture.'’ Alex or his immediate has become counterpart today Portnoy “Hvery C hild.” (I reflect how often 1, an intractable and full-blooded guy , have felt like the Jewish son of a Jewish mother if Alex and his mother are the archetypes.) I he weaknesses here are both moral and psychic: “The home in which a little child is the center of gravity is a home in which nothing The new weight. has any from page 1 generation weightlessly,” according to Ms. Decter, “and therefore in great anxiety.” In the context of a new, professionally legitimate “new public morality” a lives child is left to himself to decide questions of life or death that have come off the ground and seem to float around without gravity just out of reach. No wonder,” she continued “so many of these together and children banded at passing every clutched astrology, irrationulist nonsense eating zen even seaweed, witchcraft all of which promised them some perfection.” Mere Jewish literature becomes simply one of the base models for a new urban literature. children Jewish-A merican the shadow of suffering in perfectahility become all American children, and Midge Decter instead of being lust another maker of schemas about a single phenomenon (here the Jewish family and how it has changed), becomes “I very Mom.” "No wonder," she continues, still puzzled at the attraction of “irxalionalisl nonsense" among youth, "so many of them simply collapsed under the burden." The literature of this new chapter, the I ime of the Children, does not exist yet: "Perhaps it will he a cry ot self-pity, perhaps it will be a declaration of salvation Whatever it will he, this literature tor those will be "nostalgic . days when one way and another the sal behind his father newspaper, one way or another the mother was adding strength, and lor all its miseries, life was a place where every thing you did mattered and had consequence and was either blessed or cursed by Ciod."

Really strange group. Supposedly they started with a guy called (paper noises) yeah, here it is Joachim of Floris in the 16th century. The Illuminati were sort of a bunch of groupies to this guy. Another strange thing is the continued mention of Atlantis. The two are mentioned in Britannica, too. Also this bunch of weirdos is mentioned in Daraul’s History of Secret Societies and several times in Eliphas Levi. I just received some photos and translations of some really old Egyptian glyphs with that sign from the back of a dollar bill. That pyramid and eye thing is their secret symbol and . . .

At first I had - - - - Shea seems they just appeared one day, dropped off the manuscript, arranged to pick up any a little trouble getting into it what with the crazy double time tracks and all that drug talk.

Basically it is a really great adventure yarn dealing with a thousands of years old conspiracy to immanentize the eschaton "that’s their phrase, the baddies, to mean bring about the end of the world. And these guys, the Illuminati, are really everywhere. They control the commies, the corporations, the youth culture, even the DAR. How mean can you get, huh, boss? And boss, wait until you meet the bad guys. There’s a porpoise that talks in rhyming couplets and a computer named FUCKUP, that’s short for, oh never mind that for now. You’ll get all that when you read this really great series. And there is a guy called Hagbard Celine who programs self-destruct mynah birds. Gets them to say “Here, kitty, kitty, kitty.” Really GREAT! H.C. is sort of a modern day pirate. He lives on a gigantic golden submarine with some really great gals and the guy who really shot Kennedy maybe both of them. The whole damn thing is erotic, funny, erotic, mystical and really great.

Zodiaque is a complete circuit, a circle. And Zodiaque is a unique company of University faculty, graduates and students, united by their mutual love for dance. “I was interested in making a name that would leave you open to all things,” said director Linda Swiniuch of Zodiaque, now in its third year of production. Zodiaque and Friends , presented this past weekend by the Department of Theater Dance Program, lived up to its multiple definitions by touching on the avante garde and utilizing the theatrical and artistic qualities that modern dance exemplifies.

Live electronic music by David Gutzka added excitement while the dance gave Gutzka’s music expression and direction. Perhaps the most difficult piece was a series of Process, improvisations called Atone, Two, Triangle, and Quartet. Although the dancers knew in advance the type of dance they would he expected to do, there were no prior rehearsals. The dancers were responsible for blending their movements so that there would be no perceived difference in the rhythm or direction of the action of the group. Swiniuch would shout, “Go!” and “30-seconds” placing more of a demand on the dancers to start and end the piece in a creative way without losing their unity. Ouch! The theme for Two was “energy and release.” This was a unique performance in that it was theater improvisation in the strictest sense Also in this vein was Quartet which centered around “qualities” such as HOT!

In the student community there is a famous saying that begins to circulate around this time of year. It is the old “Waddya gonna do next year?” This question, usually seniors, is graduating frequently directed toward frown, loud a worried and faked by groans, accompanied nonchalance. The business majors, the science majors and the rest of the embryonic professional class smile in the knowledge that at least there is some task that they are trained to handle. The liberal arts major, whatever the field of study, knows that unless graduate school awaits, there is precious little that he or she can do in the cold and cruel world that lies outside this pristine tower of intellectual trivia. This very real problem that most graduating seniors face American emphasizes the growing problems facing liberal arts” institutions of higher learning. The old education which was designed for an elite class in a different world is under attack from two disparate sources. There is one side which calls for a great reduction in the “liberal arts” concept and increased emphasis on science, math, and business, and other specific and readily usable skills. “ The space competition of the seventies along with increased research in the military sphere increased the demand for technical rather than general skills. Along with these factors was the increasing complexity of modern urban life which necessitated knowledge in specific rather than general areas. Thus the B.A. in History, or English, or Sociology found that the range of options was narrowing. The college degree in itself is losing the prestige it once had due to the increasing number of students that are going to colleges. From a small fraction of the population in previous decades, the percentage of college age youth going to college has risen to the astronomical figure of almost 50 percent. In essence, the success of colleges in educating America’s youth has ironically undercut the job value of a college degree, especially if it lies in the area commonly called “liberal arts.” The other trend, which manifested itself during the sixties, was opposition to the concept of the University as an impersonal training factory which would eventually fit you into your own slot in society. The Free Speech Movement at Berkeley in 1964 was primarily concerned with this notion of the University as a degree factory, turning out the fodder for the American corporate structure. This movement, which grew in one form or another on most college campuses, resulted in many educational reforms and innovations, many of which can be seen on this campus alone. The Colleges, credit-free courses, the American Studies, increased relaxation of many traditional requirements, plus many new and sometimes esoteric courses are all indications of the new direction of many of the students. The emphasis was not on the traditional humanities, or the job oriented sciences but on personal growth and intellectual development. As a result, the implication for the traditional “liberal arts” courses seem to be quite bleak. As a good friend of mine puts it: “What the hell can you do with a degree in history, besides teach?” As a result of all of the above factors, the traditional debate between proponents of a “liberal arts” education vs. a narrow technical education has hit an all time high. Should the University be a place where a student gets a general education, or should the University become an upper grade vocational center sending out trained specialists? It all comes down to a simple question which has a complex answer; what is the role of the modern university in a world which has no need for people with a “liberal arts” education? As this question is being discussed and analyzed by university administrators, there is the very real problem of having an education which cannot even get you more than a quick glance on the job market. For all of the seniors that are in the field of “liberal arts” and are not going to Law, Dental or Medical school, the future does not seem too bright. There is no doubt that a “liberal arts” education is a good one to possess, but there is much to say, especially at graduation time, of the value of a specific skill or trade. So as the saying goes, “Waddya gonna do next year?” Page eight . The Spectrum .

If there is to be hope for peace in the Middle East, there must be between Israel and the Arab states mutual respect for each others’ sacred national values not distortion and abuse. Zionism was not born in the Jewish ghettos of Europe, but on the battlefield against imperialism in ancient Israel. It is not an outmoded nationalistic revival but an unparalleled epic of centuries of resistance to force and bondage, those who attack it attack the fundamental principles and provisions of the United Nations Charter. nations. cooperation - Selwyn Talk Reading the fine print accepted and practiced by campus newspapers.

It also destroyed one school and tens of civilian houses. The- Israeli military official said this is the language Israel will be using with the Palestinians. Moreover, he added, such actions may be repeated. Yet not a single word has been said in the press in criticizing these actions. Not a single editor Buffalo newspapers and in the New York Times bothered to at least mention that in this raid only, the Israeli soldiers have killed more civilians than the number of Israeli civilians and military killed by the Palestinian guerillas in the last two years. Not even one of the peace loving advocates who are always the first to call the Palestinians terrorists, have shown at least displeasure because of this massacre. the It rs very unfortunate that whoever controls media here wnats only one side of the story to be seen and heard. That’s why the death of hundreds of Palestinian children will be mentioned without comments in a three line paragraph in the last page, while if an Israeli soldier is wounded we’ll read about him in the first page of the newspaper, see him on the TV and listen to his mother crying, what happened to her child And this makes me wonder. Once again - - John Thus The SpECTi^uM Tlie Graduate Student Association (GSA) is alive, well and working for student rights and concerns in this year of cutbacks and recession. Students often don't realize that though they may not be personally affected by cutbacks, the whole educational system is in grave and serious financial trouble, if we don’t speak out in a united action. Presently, the GSA Executive Committee is in need of concerned students to press budget administrators in the SUNY system and local, state and federal legislators to take a more active stand and interest in higher education. Millions of “our" tax dollars are pumped into private institutions that “we” don’t attend, yet along with our parents, we pay for. That money could be used to increase efficiency in "our" libraries, “our" athletic and recreational programs, “our" leaching staff, and for the expansion of educational departments and programs, which are being axed. Cutbacks affect not only educational quality and administrative offices, but it can affect food service and bookstore prices, and the availability of products sold; tuition, fees, grants, stipends and work study jobs, commuter bus services, just to mention a few! Cutbacks are affecting faculty and staff (which in many cases are students) in unpleasant ways. Departments are fighting amongst themselves and in many cases peoples’ careers, friendships and integrities are being destroyed because of fears of being cut back, cut-down and cut-out!!! As students, it is our responsibility to take an active part in how cutbacks are directly and indirectly affecting not only our right to learn, but our faculty’s right to teach. And don’t think just because faculty are often older and wiser Fictitious monster replenished To the Editor 43 - Amy Dunkin Richard Korman Managing Editor Gerry McKeen Advertising Manager Howard Koenig Business Manager — Arts Backpage Campus City Composition Bill Maraschiello Randi Schnur Ronnie Selk Laura Bartlett Howard Greenblatt Pat Quinlivan . .

Sports asst. and My opinion of recent newspaper articles and the well written item in The Spectrum on the Loch Ness monster is that this is all so much plesiosaur crap 1 do not deny the existence of monsters There are, for example, large whales that much exceed in size the biggest dinosaurs. But, if these have not only been discovered by nearly decimated from the vast oceanic areas of the world, how could a huge animal survive uncaptured for centuries in a relatively small lake? The fact that the lake is a deep one is irrelevant because the monster, presumably a reptile, would have to surface occasionally to breathe. I suppose I can anticipate that people will remind me of the coelacanth fishes, thought to be extinct since the age of dinosaurs and then discovered alive in 1938. However, once the existence and significance of this four foot fish (hardly a monster) became known, over a dozen specimens have been captured and from the open ocean, not a lake. I fail to understand why a well'planned and equipped expedition, using such things as sonar devices and, perhaps, even a manned submersible could not kill or capture a Loch Ness monster within a few hours. If they have been around for centuries, there must be more than one to keep the population — an elaborate and expensive expedition. In fact. I would judge that the most severe poaching penalties the British government could impose would not deter any would-be captors, so great would be the monetary rewards! There is no Loch Ness Monster. Nor is there a Big-Foot monster, either in the remote wilderness of Tibet or on the thickly overpopulated west coat of U.S. All large animals on earth have been discovered, except possibly at the subspecies level and I doubt that. The problem with large animals lies not in saving them but from in discovering them extermination. Yes, there are monsters, beautiful, big monsters The whales, the bears, the big cats. It is my wish that people forget the absurdly fictitious ones and concentrate upon protection of those that are for real but not for long. - Edward J Buehler Professor of Paleontology and Monsterology Social work students deserted Monday, 8 December 1975 Editor in-Chief The number 20 has been cited a reasonable figure. Small populations tend to go quickly to extinction, although the exceptionally long life span of large reptiles may be a modifying factor here. The monetary value of such a creature, dead or alive, would certainly make feasible seems like To the Editor Vol. 26, No. that they know any more about their rights or the problems of our changing educational system than students do. We will be in their places some day, but if we don’t speak up, those jobs won’t be there. We won’t have those positions our predecessors now have because we didn’t fight for them .as students. One often has to invest in the future for there to be a future. If we don't fight now to secure “our” future in the job market, we'll be taking over nothing! The GSA Senate needs your interests, input and ideas. It also needs leg and hand power to go to our legislators, writing to the Chancellor of the SUNY system and any group that can pul pressure on government personnel who have the potential to effect decisions made in the interest of education. You can start now. by researching and questioning where and how state money cuts are affecting your right to a decent education. Tuition is already high; many of us can’t afford it now and it may go up. It will have to go up if cutbacks increase, and students don’t start getting educated to the problem. Black, while, women, men, boys, girls, veterans, graduate T.A.'s, G.A.’s, R.A.’s, students, E.O.P. scholarship recipients, foreign students, transfer students, you name, you got it! You got a problem! Educational loans will be harder to get and there is a chance the interest rates might go up. For all the reasonal already mentioned and more, GSA is working everyday, thinking, writing and acting on discerning attitudes toward education. This unified student sounding box needs your input. There are five officers, various committees and a Senate body that’s growing and awakening to the “age of academicism.” Come up and speak with us. Call 831-5505 to offer your support.

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief We, the students of the Undergraduate Social Work Department at this University, feel that once again Dean Sherman Merle has overlooked our needs. Rather than expend the time and money to seek accreditation of a program specifically designed to meet the guidelines of the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), he has decided that this is not a necessary step in our professional career. Besides the professional recognition of our program that accreditation would accrue, it would also enable students to apply for advanced standing at certain major universities such as Columbia and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which only pffer it to undergraduates from accredited programs. Accreditation is also a stipulation to be eligible for immediate “regular-full” membership in the National Association of Social Workers, a CSWt Division of Standards and Accreditation, has stated in a letter that “the proposed termination o( the baccalaureate social work program at SUNV Buffalo would in and of itself not affect adversely accreditability between now and the time ol termination.” We believe that we will be favorable reviewed adn we are not alone in this belief. Other faculty members, particularly undergraduate Gerald Miller, concur. In Friday’s November 21, 1975 issue of The Spectrum, he state: “I see no reason why the program should not be accreditated, pursue the administration decides to if accreditation.” It is unfortunate that Dean Merle, at a time when the merit and worth of accredited degrees are being professionally recognized, had deserted his students by taking this opportunity away from them. professional organization.

Buffalo dropped its first two decisions, but looked vastly improved in their loss to Syracuse, which reached the final rounds of the NCAA tournament last year. Tip-off is at 8:15 p.m. following the completion of the Baby Bulls’ game with Rosary Hill that gets underway at 6:15 p.m. Committee forms to bring back football The move to return football to the State University at Buffalo will take a major step forward this afternoon with the first meeting of a newly-formed committee dedicated to resurrecting the grand old game. The committee, which is officially unnamed at the present time, is being organized by Bullpen Editor-in-Chief Dave Hnath and Student Athletic Review Board Chairman Dennis Delia. The meeting will be held this afternoon at 1 p.m. in Room 266 Norton Hall, and membership on the committee is open to all members of the University community. If enough support is gathered by the committee, Hnath hopes to bring a definite proposal to Student Association (SA) for a football program to get underway next fall. Rah, rah Hnath claimed that there is currently sizeable student support to reinstitute football at Buffalo. He felt there are nearly enough signed petitions to bring about a student referendum concerning football, but he added that more signatures will be solicited to show additional support. “We’re trying to get students to say ‘yes, we want football back’,” he remarked. Funding for the proposed team could possibly Come from a reallocation of athletic funds. However, if more funding is needed, Hnath said that SA and the Buffalo Alumni Association will be asked to help. Hnath believes that a Division HI team could be funded for about $1 5,000. In the past, SA has been reluctant to allocate any more than minimal funding to 'ntercollegiate athletics. But Hnath pointed out that SA President Michele Smith made a statement in the October 17 Bullpen which implied that SA could be convinced to support football. She said, “If it is indicated in future surveys that students wish a reallocation within the present level of funding, 1 would not necessarily oppose it.” Swim Sports Quiz Sports Quiz undergoes a slight face lift this week.

With many of their top swimmers returning and an influx of new Having completed what talent, their hope may become a reality. Last year was highlighted by a barrage of new individual records. Freshman George Finelli broke a number of school records in spring events while fellow freshman Ted Brenner was shattering marks in the backstroke practically every time he swam. In addition to these two first year members, distance man Dan Winter, who has graduated, and diver Kei! Wurl also found places in the Buffalo record book. This year, despite the loss of many excellent swimmers due to graduation, the Bulls appear to be strong in many of the areas that kept them afloat last season. What makes the team’s prospects look so good is that top new swimmers have been added where others have left off. Frosh phenom Among the most promising is Peter Jarenka, a 21-year old freshman. Coach William Sanford has been very impressed with Jarenka and feels that in time, it is possible that he could do some record-breaking of his own Jarenka’s specialties are the 50 and 1 00-yard freestyles. heir apparent to Winter’s place on the roster as the top man is freshman Steve Pawlawski.

Facilities problem for Athletic Department Editor's note: This is the first in a series of interviews examining the athletic program at Buffalo. Other interviews of students, faculty and administrators will be appearing from time to time. by Michael D. Tomasso Spectrum Staff Writer SYRACUSE - Few of the estimated 4,600 people at the Manley Field House on Wednesday Bulls the basketballs to be stiff expected competition for the Syracuse Orangemen. After all, Syracuse was an NCAA semi-finalist last year, while the Bulls were trying to improve an 8—17 record. But Syracuse’s top two scoreers had graduated, While Buffalo had brought in four new junior college recruits to add to the nucleus of last year’s team, and for the game’s first 30 minutes, the unexpected Buffalo was leading. Syracuse finally happened staged a comeback to produce a 87—77 win, but Buffalo convinced most observers that the team was — strong. minutes, the Bulls into Syracuse turnovers, rebounding well and hitting the open man with their passes. Bulls’ center Sam Pellom was the dominant force, pulling down 15 rebounds in the first half alone, while scoring 16 points. Pellom finished the game shooting 14 for 20 for 28 points with 22 rebounds. During controlled first action, those the 30 forcing Bulls conquer jitters Bulls coach, Leo Richardson, attributed Buffalo’s lead to the fact that his players were getting used to big-time basketball. Last Saturday, at Indiana State, the Bulls had butterflies in their stomachs, according to Richardson. With ten minutes remaining in Wednesday night’s contest and the Bulls leading by eight, things the Gary Domzalski, turned. Guard team’s quarterback, committed his fourth foul, and Richardson took him out. The next six times down the court, Buffalo never got a shot off, as Syracuse scored nine points in a row to take the lead for the first (and last) time. “We just don’t have that other guard yet,” said Richardson. “George (Cooper) hasn'/rt fit into our system completely. We’re going to have to develop some poise and confidence in ourselves.” Buffalo was also getting into severe foul trouble. Eventually three Bulls fouled out while three others The had four fouls each. At about the same time. Orange forwards Marty Byrnes and Chris Sease got hot, while freshman Dale Schackleford came off the bench to score 14 points, and Syracuse slowly widened its lead throughout the rest of the game. Good officiating? According to many observers, including some Syracuse University officials, the referees did more damage than the Orangemen’s front line. This was obvious in the one statistic which is directly free throws. Syracuse controlled by the officials went to the charity stripe 37 times, compared to just six attempts for tire Bulls, and out-scored Buffalo by 20 points there. “That’s where we lost it,” said Richardson. One case in point was Gary Domzalski’s crucial fourth foul. After dribbling through a crowd of three Syracuse defenders and being hacked by each of them, Domzalski was called for an offensive foul when he finally passed the ball. Overall, Richardson was happy with the Bulls’ performance. “They gave 100 percent. I can t ask any more of them,” he said. “The one exception [when I wasn’t happy) was when I took Gary out.” - JV squad wins "''he junior varsity Bulls made Matt Fisher’s coaching debut a successful one with a 69-67 come from behind victory. Trailing by nine points in the second half, the Bulls came back to take a onp point lead, mainly through the efforts of guards Don Scott and Sterling Medley. However, with 20 seconds left, Scott took a poor shot and Buffalo center Lloyd McKinnon could not control the rebound as Syracuse took possession. Orangemen center Todd Macy was fouled while driving the baseline and connected on one of his two free throws to tie the score with 12 seconds left. Buffalo brought the ball upcourt and a pass was knocked out of bounds with just five seconds to go. Bulls forward Fred Brookins took the inbounds pass and missed on a 20 foot jumpshot, but Medley was here to tip in the rebound with time running out. Medley was the Baby Bulls high scorer with 17 points. “To have a perfect athletic department, a school would need a variety of programs for both men and women consisting of everything from intramural to intercollegiate sports and the facilities to house them.” This is the sports gospel according to William Sanford, Associate Professor of the School of Health Education. He feels that Buffalo lacks in both of the above categories, especially facilities. Sanford, who has more titles than a card catalog, is generally known as Buffalo’s varsity swimming coach, but he also doubles as Clark Gym Director of Aquatics and Facilities Coodrinator. A veteran of Clark Hall, Sanford was a student here <md a faculty member for 28 years. During this time he has witnessed massive growth in the population of this University along with an absence of corresponding growth in the athletic department. “In 1935, our department was more than adequate for the student body, but now we’re bulging at the seams,” Sanford observed. It is to this fact that he attributes the downfall of the athletics department, and hence the downfall of the high degree of school spirit which Buffalo once had. Th| s»«Oh Mfwirr COMr»*n OOtOt wChiCan OTlt Love tap. From one beer lover to another. Building men and minds Sanford believes that sports is an intricate part of any education. He feels it builds character and spirit, and also adds to the physical and moral well being of the student body. “If we had the facilities we need to accommodate our student body, I would bet that many students would stop down to the gym in their spare time instead of the pub. The biggest problem in the athletic department today is the lack of facilities, according to Sanford. “Calls come in daily asking tor room that just isn't available,” he observed. In fact, such a call was phoned into Sanford right after he made that remark. He feels that better facilities would attract better athletes and as a result larger spectator crowds. “Did you ever watch a swimming match," he.asked. "It’s like a sweat box up there on the balcony." Sanford also feels that (lie overall quality of the varsity teams might improve with better facilities. “It we had better physical education facilities, we’d have a belter chance of recruiting athletes, hy offering them a good physical as well as academic education, he noted. A mark, a yah Money may not be everything to some people, but it is to the Physical Education Department. Since the state is unable to increase the physical education department’s budget to allow for increases in population, the financial burdens are falling on the students. Unfortunately, in Sanford’s opinion, the student body is not able to carry the weight of the entire sports department alone. The idea of a mandatory student athletic fee has been thrown around sporadically. Sanford believes that such a fee would save the physical education department but could not he considered the ultimate solution. In his opinion, (he state would eventually have to come through with additional funds. If neither the state nor the students comes through continued on page 14 Monday, 8 December 1975 .

Lake ErieTnay still be threatened. Recent state-wide economic cutbacks have eliminated at least half of the positions that were occupied in the DEQ. This means, commented a staff member of the Great Lakes Laboratory, “that the lake may suffer.” “Since the strength of the DEQ will be weakened, so will its enforcement,” the staff member added. Lake Erie’s purity now depends on the cooperation of other ecological agencies and of industry. “If companies keep on working along the lines that they are working now,” stated the staff member, “Lake Erie is in no danger.” The only apparent evident problem that may arise is that if industry takes advantage of the cutback. “When the law isn’t enforced, industry can more or they please,” claimed less the staff member. The one hope in keeping up the lake’s standards is that the public will show concern. Only if the people demand that DEQ’s positions be reinstated, will DEQ have the power to protect the laws that govern the existence of Lake Erie. • ACROSS : which controls the entrance of nutrients into the lake, can now remove almost 95 Contrary to popular belief, percent of these nutrients instead Lake Erie is no longer a “dead of the usual 20 percent.

Sanford feels that the most important thing would be to preserve the present teams as they stand now. If this were impossible, then he would try to maintain the sports that are generally pursued by stude*nts after graduation, such as swimming, golf, tennis and squash. Any further cuts would mean fhe end of some athletic program at Buffalo Despite the gum picture which Sanford paints, he icmains optimistic that the physical education department will be saved. He appears to have great faith in the student body and looks toward the students for financial aid in the future. Sanford expects that if lire sludenls come through, the state will pitch in also. “Buffalo is a sports town with good facilities and good coverage from the media, particularly The Spectrum , and we should be able to keep from going under.” Sanford hopes that the future Will bring about his life-long dream. He's like to see the university as a place where students could go and have a sense of school spirit and pride, somewhat like that of the "Old UB.” Sanford feels that the way to do this is through a unifying force, such as sports. 21^)104 WARGAMES Ancients Napoleonic* English Civil War $6.95 Monday, 8 December 1975 Priestly Thoroughly Library STAGECOACH, CASABLANCA. . 23 Crimean port edited by Richard J Anobile BUSTER KEATON'S THE GENERAL The 1927 silent film classic reconstructed through 2 100 sequential frame blow-ups and title cards. $5.95 Also in this series The Spectrum Disconnect Detroit suburb Gather apain The Film Classics original dialogue. . 0 10 11 12 13 18'Goes Frequently: Poet. .62 See 1 Across 63 Foot the bill Actress Bayes Mellowing 64 “The Bridge on _ ROUBEN MAMOULIAN'S DR.

Zero population growth (ZPG), defined as “an equilibrium between birth and death rates in a given period of time,” became a vertibale household word with the publication of The Population Bomb, by Paul Ehrlich in 1968. The book made millions of Americans .aware of the problems associated with population expansion and enlarged the field of demography, or population predictions. Yet due to the larger proportion of women of childbearing age, births will continue to outnumber deaths in the United States for many years to come. When fertility rates in the United States reached all-time lows in 1973 and again in 1974, some people misinterpreted these figures as the attainment of the ZPG goal. Actually, although the total fertility rate dropped to 1.8 children born per woman in 1974, the population continued to increase, though somewhat more slowly than before. To this day, projections continue to differ. Donald Bogue, author of Principles of Demography, has stated that the U.S. population will stabilize by the year 2000 at a level somewhere between 250 million and 260 million. On the other hand, the editors of The Other Side have predicted a climb to 675 million by the year 2050. Growth rate doubles The rate of growth of a population depends on changes in fertility, mortality and migration. A population grows through natural increase (births minus deaths), net immigration, or a combination of both. The annual growth rate for the United States in 1974 was almost 0.8 percent. Although a seemingly inconsequential number, the growth rate can be compared to the compounding of interest on a bank savings account. Each year’s growth is added to the “principal,” or the population size, so that the rate applies to a number that becomes steadily larger. If the 1974 growth 0.8 percent were to be 1974 population would 420 million and would in the year 2154. rate in the United States of maintained indefinitely, the double in about 90 years to double again to 840 million Confusion over figures Figures of birth and death rates are very misleading and often misunderstood. The crude birth rate is influenced by the female proportion of the population in its reproductive years, ages 15 through 44. When there are more women of child bearing age, even if the fertility rate does not change, the crude birth rate increases. The crude birth rate is also influenced by the average age of the population. If fertility levels decline from the low level of 1975, the population will “age” in the sense that its median age will go up as fewer newborn are added to the total. This will increase the number of women in the total population who are beyond the likely age of childbearing so that even if fertility rates were not to change, the crude birth rate would decline in the long run. Temporarily, however, the U.S. crude birth rate can be expected to increase as the reproductive proportion of the female population is swollen by the maturing children of the post-war baby boom which peaked in 1957. As an example of how misleading figures can be, the New York Times reported on March 16, 1975 that “in 1974, the birth rate moved up.” In fact, the crude birth rate did increase slightly from 1973 to 1974, and the number of births also went up for the first time. However, the general fertility rate for women between the ages of 15 and 44 dropped during those same years. Change in age contradiction The explanation for this seeming contradiction is simply a change in age distribution. Between 1973 and 1974 the number of women of childbearing age grew by 2 percent so that the proportion of the population able to have children increased. Thus the number of births and the crude birth rate would be expected to increase. Crude death rates are similarly affected by age distribution. If a population has a greater than average elderly proportion, it will have a higher crude death rate than one with fewer elderly, even if the per-capita death rates are the same in both countries. That is why, for example, the crude death rate for Sweden is larger than that for Panama. Sweden, partially because of its much lower fertility, has a greater proportion of elderly in its population than Panama. Thus, though Sweden has lower mortality at ail ages, its crude death rate is higher because about 12 percent of its population is 65 years or older compared to only about 5 percent in Panama. Improved methods Scientists now. however, use two new systems extrapolated from the old forecasting methods of crude rates. The total fertility rate and the net production rate are major improvements over the crude rate methods. The peculiarities related to varying age distributions are eliminated and figures are restricted to the childbearing female population. The total fertility rate in the United States for 1974 was about 2.1 children per woman. This means that 'if 1000 women went through their reproductive years and had children at the same rate as women of all ages did in 1974, their completed families would average just over 2.1 children. The net reproduction rate is actually a measure of generational replacement. A net reproduction rate of 1.0 means that a population is exactly replacing itself. The current rate in the United States is about 0.89, or below replacement. Still more births Despite these figures, there were still 154 million more births than deaths in 1974, the cause of which is age composition. Even if all women now entering their reproductive years had only 1.8 children on the average, population would continue to grow for a number of years because of the greater number of potentially reproductive women. Thus, it is incorrect to conclude that because the total fertility rate is currently below replacement, all growth has stopped. Births will continue to outnumber deaths for many years to come. Net immigration also adds millions to the U.S. population total. If immigration were eliminated and only fertility and mortality were considered, with a completed family size of 2.1 children, the United States would reach zero population growth in about the year 2035, when the population would be 270 million. Budget cuts dictate substantial layoffs Cuts in the University’s 1976-77 budget will require laying off a “substantial” number of faculty, and will affect all part-time personnel and some graduate assistants, Executive Vice President Albert Somit told the Faculty Senate Tuesday. The hiring freeze declared November 15 and the strong possibility of further budget cuts in January will force the University to make major policy decisions within the next few months on how to implement the cuts, Somit continued. “The University is adopting procedures to secure exceptions to the freeze, and all senior administrators should prepare their priorities.” Somit also said he does not expect the freeze on Amherst Campus construction to last longer than a year, and that all buildings presently under construction will be completed. Fuel Sorpit reported that the University’s current fuel allowance will fall approximately $1 million short and that because the University has already had $1.2 million cut from its 1976-77, “any lost positions represent a loss of flexibility” in response to any further cuts and will have “very serious implications.” In summing up the University’s financial situation, Somit said the budget cuts could either be distributed equally throughout all programs, thus ensuring the stagnation of new ones and making it impossible to begin any others, or could be made selectively in certain areas The choice is In support of the second method, Somit declared between standing still or moving backwards.” Senate Chairman George Hochfield said that discussions with State University Chancellor Ernest Boyer about the relationship between SUNY and the City University of New York (CUNY) led him (Hochfield] to believe there would be “some form of unity” within the next three to five years between SUNY and CUNY Tuition increase Hochfield also said Boyer suggested the possibility of an increase in SUNY tuitions within the next few years. In other business, the Senate postponed voting on the Senate Grading Committee's recommendation that the satisfactory/unsatisfactory option remain except for students on probation, and that the opportunity for students to take 25 percent of their total credits pass-fail. The Committee further recommended that students be allowed to use the S/U option within their majors with permission from the department, which must publish its procedures; and that students indicate their desire to be graded S/U by informing Admissions and Records by the last day courses can be added Or dropped. Based on information offered by Admissions and Records, the Committee report showed “no major violations of the S/U option from the standpoint of grade distributions. On the contrary, it seems to be operating the way it was intended.” Original intent In criticizing the Committee, Professor of Physics Jonathan Reichert said the S/U plan “has drifted away from its original intent” which was to encourage students to explore different areas without penalizing their average.” The S/U plan is being used by extremely weak students to avoid getting a “D”, he claimed, calling the committee’s ststistical data “conflicting and at best misleading.” Reichert proposed two types of grading in an amendment. Under his plan, students Can opt for the S/U only in courses outside their major, excluding even those courses required by their department.” His other proposal is that instructors have the option to designate an entire course pass-fail, provided they list it with the registrar. In opposing the “overall thinking” behind Reichert’s proposal, one professor claimed that contrary to what has been said, “students are not hustlers.” To avoid unnecessarily quick judgement, the proposals were sent back to the committee so that some compromise could be reached �Landmark church is to be demolished caused large chunks of plaster to come tumbling down from the ceiling, and it became obvious St. Joseph’s New Cathedral, a that a decision would have to be Buffalo landmark for 60 years, made about the cathedral’s future.

New York State bans the sale of anything at any time on Sundays except such “essential” commodities as food and drugs. to Most suburban shopping malls have indicated that they plan for to close. Spokespersons unless forced Sundays, remain open on several stores said it is primarily fear of losing business to competition The presidents of that has encouraged special Sunday sale hours. Hengerer’s and L.L. Berger’s, two large suburban stores, stated that they would not object to closing on Sundays if tne same was required face of competitors. In calling for strict enforcement of the law, Cosgrove requested even if local police officers to report violations of the Sunday sales ban, there are no complaints from private citizens Losing money Shoppers jammed the Lastern Hills Mall Clarence this past store Sunday as all stores except Sears were open. A number of staying by open losing money were they that managers said, however, Sundays.

NYPIRG's study contains information on price comparisons and demonstrates the difficulty in obtaining comparative price information. The group charged that the industry is largely self-regulated and shrouded from public scrutiny. Unnecessary NYPIRG recommended lhat funeral directors be required to disclose prices over the phone and that written cost information be given to consumers before any arrangements are made. NYPIRG also urged that existing laws be scrutinized to determine if they are costing consumers unnecessary money. The study, conducted in New York City, Nassau and Suffolk counties, selected 60 random funeral homes to determine the feasibility of arranging a funeral by phone and to obtain comparative price information. “Given that most people desiring to arrange a funeral are not likely to go from place to place in person comparing prices and services, they are likely to want to make arrangements and gel over with it. but they need information to make a rational choice. However, two-thirds of the funeral homes refused to give prices or were uncooperative. Twenty-five percent refused to give any price data," said Schultz. Archaic laws There is yet another problem associated with the funeral industry: the existence of laws that were originally passed as public health measures which now serve only to increase costs. For example, each body must be placed in a casket, even it cremation is A planned. By law, no casket may be reused change in this law would permit an elaborate. said Schultz At a public hearing on the funeral industry, Schultz offered six specific recommendations. In addition to disclosing prices over the phone, he said funeral directors should distribute itemized lists that identify optional goods or services, and include a statement saying that any options not desired can be declined. Board changes Funeral homes and cemeteries should distribute fact sheets explaining laws regarding the disposition of bodies. NYP1RG also wants to change the composition the Funeral Directors Advisory Board, six of of whose seven members must be funeral directors. NYPIRG proposed that the board consist of five representatives of public and consumer groups, and only two licensed funeral directors. Another law presently gives “reasonable funeral expenses of as much as S2000 priority in the deceased’s estate. NYPIRG contends that this law is in reality a subsidy for the funeral industry, supporting high cost funerals. NYPIRG recommends a S750 limit on funeral costs be taken out of the estate Open records NYPIRG also recommends that the General Business Law4 53 be amended so that money paid to a cemetery in advance be held in trust with interest payable to the consumer. NYPIRG wants the records of the Funeral Bureau of the Department of Health, which include inspection and enforcement proceedings, to be made available to the public. Finally, NYPIRG urges the legislature to study the existing body of laws on funerals to determine if health measures which result in higher costs to consumers are outdated It is NYPIRG's position that the slate can lake the actions outlined, to regulate the tuneral industry and make funeral costs less prohibitive to the survivors of the deceased. •••••••••••• THE NICKELODEON • ANTIQUE THEATRE ® 1406 Broadway (near Bailey) THE Y.M.C.A. 45 W.

This year CIA assassination plots, domestic files and other criminal activities have been publicly revealed. Corruption exists in high places in our society, and most Americans probably agree that it’s a good thing we have a free press. Or do we? James Aronson, a former New York Times writer, argues in his book, The Press and The Cold War that the press plays an active and conscious role in shaping public opinion in the interests of government policy. While the beginning of the Cold War is thought to have begun at the close of WW II, Aronson suggests that it really began right after the Russian Revolution of October 1917. Little was written in our press about the extreme conditions of poverty in which the majority of Russian people found themselves before the revolution, nor the tremendous changes that took place during the revolution. , Foreign aggression But when the young socialist state was invaded by the military forces of other countries, including the United States, the New York Times editorial of December 13, 1918 said: “Having entered Russia for a purpose, why not carry out that purpose?” That purpose was to “drive the Bolsheviki out of Petrograd and Moscow.” A study conducted by Walter Lipprnann and Charles Merz, and published in the New Republic , August 4, 1920, entitled, “A Test of the News," found that in the first two years after I9I7, the New York Times reported the new government collapsed 91 times, Petrograd toppled six times and burned to the ground twice, the people were in a constant state of starvation, and the White Army was victorious practically everywhere. But by adding up casualty statistics from the Times news stories, Lipprnann and Merz found that the casualty figures and captured weapons totals were “many times larger" than the armies and material in all of Aronson. While Russia, relates openly cheering for foreign Russia, by in aggression hysterically depicting (he new socialist government as monsterous, the press helped set the stage for government repression at home. In January of Id Id, shipyard workers in Seattle went on strike protest wage cuts, brought on by severe economic factors. Soon a general strike gripped the city, and within six months, some two million workers were on strike across the nation. Attorney General Mitchell Palmer and his aide, J. Fdgai Hoover, set up a special Justice to Department publicity bureau lo supply stories to the press about a M osc o w-d i reeled plot to overthrow the U.S. Government. The public was hit daily with headlines such as “U.S. Attorney General Warns Against Bolshevik Menace.” Having set the stage, Palmer went into action. The night of November 7, 1919, and again on January 2, thousands of suspected radicals were arrested in nationwide „weeps.' While there was no evidence to substantiate the charges of revolution, maintains Aronson, the New York World , of January 3, reported that “2,000 Reds” were arrested who were involved in a “vast working plot to overthrow the government." Cover for repression The press and federal government whipped up such hysteria, that the New York State Assembly was able to expel five legally elected Socialists from their offices. The Times wrote that the expulsions were “patriotic” and in the “national defense.” Anti-communism allowed the government to repress the movement of American labor for better working and living conditions by equating strikes and protest actions with the monsterous “red menace.” While anti-communism has been a permanent feature of government and press policy, it was subdued during the Second World War when unity was forged against Nazi Germany. But as soon as the war was over, anti-communism was revived. Winston Churchill gave a speech in Fulton, Missouri in August of 1945, calling for a aid to Greece and Turkey to stop communism. Then, one year later, “saboteurs” and “espionage after the fact, Time magazine revealed the real reasons for agents” from the Soviet Union. On September 30, 1946, FBI involvement: “The loud talk was Director Hoover “let loose a all of Greece and Turkey, but the resounding blast against whispers behind the talk were of communists in the U.S.” as the the oceans of oil to the south.

Investigations of “Un-American” activities sprung up all over the country, with full press coverage, while blacklists were compiled and arrest of suspected radicals increased. Abraham L.

However, juries in such cases. rarely Physicians publicly contend that they do not practice euthanasia. Off the record, however, many admit that they have hastened the death of a terminally ill patient by administering an overdose of the patient’s medicine. With today's sophisticated medical equipment being able to prolong a “semi-life," a new set of choices arises. Should a patient's circulatory or respiratory systems be artificially sustained through the use of these wonder machines, and if so, for how long? Should a patient be technically kept alive by "physiochemical legerdemain," even if all he has become is a mere collection of organs and act is convict Writer There is a growing emotional controversy over euthanasia and the so-called right to die. Although watching the deterioration of a lerminally-ill person is an extremely painful, traumatic experience tor both the patient and family, it is widely believed that as long as there is the slightest possibility a pat ent may recover, concerned parties should not be allowed to decree the deliberate termination of life. However, advocates of euthanasia argue that it is an act of mercy to hasten the death of a critically ill patient with not chance for long-term survival Rapid scientific and technological progress in the field of medicine have increasingly brought these troubling questions to bear on terminal patients, their families, doctors, theologins and lawyers. Daniel C. Maguire, professor of According Ihcology al Marquette University, science, which once considered itself "value-free,” is suddenly up to its neck in value-loaded decisions. “Medicine becomes more and more involved with problems of ethics as it is repeatedly forced to ask itself if H may do what it suddenly and often to Partial death? Science lacks a comprehensive definition of death. "When you are dead, you are dead," is no longer accurate now that death is seen in terms of a "process.” The terms "brain death" and "heart death" confuse the issue for there aie cases where one happens without the other. Medicine cannot distinguish between "good death" and "had death," claims Macguire. Science has geared ilsell to the prolongation of life under any circumstance. "Death is the natural enemy of healing science." asserts Macguire. The physician faces the dilemma of how long to prolong life after all hope of recovery has dissipated. The Hippocratic oath reads: "I will neither give a deadly drug to anybody, if asked for. nor will 1 make a suggestion thereof.” This has been interpreted by most physicians to mean that they must not administer the patient a fatal overdose, no matter how much pain he might be in. Until about 25 years ago physicians laced the choice of either letting nature take its course, or administering a fatal dose ot some "beneficial" drug. Resorting to the ding is termed "active euthanasia." In all Western countries the tissues'.’ "The idea ol mil prolonging life has always been more widely accepted outside the medical profession than within it,” says James Gusiavson of the University of C hicago. "Now a lot of physicians are rebelling against the triumphism inherent in the medical profession, against the Doctors differ "Different doctors bring different considerations bear. The rescarc y sic tan is t ore ct 01 ten patient-oriented physician is more willing to allow patients to make theii own choice.” Gusiavson explained. Patients with hopelessly damaged brains can be kept alive for indefinite periods through the use of respirators which keep the heart and lungs pumping. In these cases, the brain may be dead yet the person is technically alive simply because his heart is beating. There have been cases where an autopsy revealed that the brain had actually liquified. A California docloi leporls the case ot a brain damaged patient whose life was "maintained" lor eight years. Tubes for feeding and waste excretion kept the have taken a lighted match and held tl against his eye and he still wouldn't have known you were there.' the doctor said. The cost of keeping this person alive over those eight years amounted to S.JOO.OOO. Had the tubes been removed the patient would have slipped away within 11 hours.

On August LK I 467 Robert Waskins, a 23 year old college student shot his terminally ill mother three times in the head after her tearful plea to die He was arrested and charged with murder. The case went to court. The letter of the law had little to offer Waskins, for the motive, however benevolent, is no defense in cases ol mercy killing. The jury deliberated for 40 minutes. They found Waskins not guilty by reason of insanity. They later found that he was no longer insane and he was released. In the famous “Montemarano Case” on Long Island. District Attorney Calm had to prove that Dr. Montemarano injected a lethal dose of potassium chloride into his patient. Eugene Bauer, who was suffering from cancer of the throat and was in a coma. Recently the Quinlan Case has captured the national interest. Is Euthanasia really merciful; Or is if really murder'.’ The question is still up in the air.

While we love seeing dogs outside running freely, playing with each other and having fun, we get angry when we see those same dogs chasing squirrels, digging up the grass, execreting on the cement and annoying people. It is the responsibility of dog owners to watch their animals at all times so these things do the 1948 war are not even permitted to return. Therefore, they conclude Zionism is racism. The fact is that Israel has been excluding these refugees for security reasons not for racial reasons. As pointed out in a previous letter, this policy was also followed in 1948. Then, as now, Israel could not afford to jeopardize her security by allowing refugees in. One thing I’ve noticed about the UB is its apparent inability to distinguish between Zionism as a philosophy and the actual policies of the present Israeli government. It would have made more sense to condemn Israel for her raids in Lebanon or even for her refusal to withdraw from 1967 occupied territory. Instead, they condemn a philosophy that they knew little about. One would get the impression that the Jewish religion specifically commands the Israelis to throw people off their land and let them starve. In addition, the UN ignores the murderous acts of the PLO and the anti-Semitism (which, by the way, is racism) practiced by the governments of the USSR and Arab countries. This goes to show that the UN is biased against Israel. 1 dare anyone to debate this point The resolution further loses its credibility when one considers that at least one of the Arab leaders who voted for it (Sadat) fought on Hitler’s side 35 years ago 1 conclude that the UN is sinking lower, lower each year.

That we are in anything resembling the period of if only because the 1929-1932 is obviously false Federal Reserve is not going to contract the money supply by 1/3. That New York City is the cause and by implication that saving New York City will turn the economy around is flummery. Rather we should examine the effects of a bailout on the economy. These would include at the very least: 1) increased - as the supply of money substitutes is increased; 2) higher taxes for all because of increased borrowing costs for the Federal Government and all other borrowers. Vice President Carter Pannill’s arguments are also fallacious. He suggests that it is somehow proper to subsidise students (by reduced tuition) to enter a profession in which, because of the strong monoply position its members maintain, large returns are earned.

For those who are unfamiliar with the decompression chamber, it is essentially a death machine that is known to torture animals needlessly [i.e., bursts their ear drums, pops out their eyes, virtually explodes their organs as a result of sharp pressure changes]. Currently, there is a drive by the Buffalo Animal Rights Committee of CAC, the Animal Birth Control Society (833-5190) and citizens for a better SPCA to ban this machine in Erie County. Canada possesses them but refuses to use them and other states and cities have had them banned Through public outcry and petitioning hopefully we will rid Erie County of this cruel method.

Nor is it clear why we in W N Y have the right to ask the taxpayers of Dubuqe, Iowa to subsidize our construction industry by bailing out the city State Senator McFarland shows his stuff by propogating the obvious falsehood that a guarantee “wouldn’t cost a cent.” If that is the case I ask him to co-sign my personal notes. If it was true that there is no chance the city will default (and thus have to actually use the guarantee) then investors would be willing to buy the bonds without the guarantee. That, however, is clearly not the case. We must remember that people who bought NYC bonds did so of their own free will and knew that they were taking risks. A bailout would make sure payment occurred and transfer money from all of us (as taxpayers) to the rich (as bondowners) I am pleased that Sen. McFarland notes the “near criminality” involved in the city’s management. I would put it even stronger. Consider what would happen to any individual who engaged in these activities on behalf of a profit-maximizing firm. David Brownstein evidently limited himself to a meaningless attack on President Ford. I suggest that, rather than capitalizing on an uninformed public. President Ford is reflecting the wishes of his constituents. Remember, contrary to what appears to be a popular belief around here, life does exist west of the Hudson, and even beyond the Empire State. Most of the people in this country do not live New York It is these people, 90% of the in population, that President Ford should be servicing in this instance.

Mark Weinstein Assistant Professor of Finance and Operations Analysis �Our Weekly Reader So Long, Partner (United Fred Electrical, Radio Machine Workers of & America) a book of cartoons is simply to publish them. Yet, the cartoons by Fred Wright are so unique and powerful that one is compelled to learn more about the artist. Who is this man that reveals with such simplicity, clarity and immediacy, the daily struggle between the boss and the worker, while capturing the bittersweet humor these encounters produce? Fred Wright was born in England in 1907 and was schooled in Canada and the United States. Fie worked as a clerk for a large public utility company in New York and as a musician. The depression and the end of Prohibition terminated his piano playing in New York as the nightclub cabaret's came to an end. Wright then became a seagoing saxophonist on cruise ships, and for seven years observed first hand the severe social and economic injustices that the poor suffered in underdeveloped countries. With the rise of fascism in Europe, and the CIA organizing drives at home, Wright returned to join the ranks of the young trade unionists of the 1930's. Fie began to review The best way labor producing cartoons to Pentagon and cold war politicians." Throughout the cold war of McCarthyism, and the hot wars in Korea and Vietnam, the UE maintained its honorable principles, by opposing governmental interference in the lives of people here and abroad. To date, Wright has published some 3,000 cartoons for the UE, beginning in 1939. Many of his cartoons have been translated and reproduced in foreign trade union publications, and are being used more and more in this country today. His pen speaks the same language for all working people, attesting to the universal character of class differences and the common interests of working people. Today Fred Wright is several years into retirement, yet continues as an artist with the UE at a job he loves. Concerning the refreshing changes he observed in the late 1960's and 1970's, Wright comments: "The basic revolutionary traditions of America are showing through and to the everlasting credit of the American people who are observing their moral and ethical commitments. The stars and stripes will eventually represent the principles and ideals that they originally so proudly hailed." In this book, So Long, Partner, the UE has collected over 200 of Fred Wright's cartoons, which are sure to take their place alongside the great social art of the past and present. —Paul Krehbie / (Paul Krehbie is a Contributing Editor of / The SpectrumJ WMT DID YOU TE-LL MAM JUST MOIO? —, f H&V1 . the help unionists in their organizing. During World War II, he shot down Nazis in cartoons for Army newspapers. w«fl MAKI When the war was over, the Federated Press syndicated Fred's work to hundreds of labor and community newspapers across the country. Fie allowed his cartoons to be ?Ropuc reprinted numerous times by many trade union publications, and they proved to be a powerful weapon in winning union recognition, redressing grievances and winning strikes. With the McCarthyism, of the Cold War, FIUAC hearings and Smith advent Act trials, many American activists and radicals were blacklisted or jailed, while others renounced their pasts. Most American institutions were attempting to cleanse themselves by joining the denunciations of communism.

The C&W strains are even more apparent in Jim's music, both in his original songs and the likes of "I Know You're Married But I Love You Still" and "Any Old Wind That Blows," the title of his new Philo disc, which came into being largely as a result of co-producer David Bromberg dropping in on Jim's visit to Buffalo two years ago.

The Spectrum . Friday, 5 December 1975 18 Prodigal Sun �'Conduct Unbecoming' RECORDS Robert Palmer, Pressure Drop (Island) Robert Palmer, in case you didn't remember, is the man responsible for Sneaking Sally Through the Alley, an album of pseudo-R&B/Soul which frequented the FM playlists in late spring and early summer of this year. Sneaking Sally differs from much of the “blue-eyed soul" pouring out of the British Isles these days in the quality and competence displayed by the musicians who were assembled for the album. Whereas outfits such as the Average White Band or Ace are content to merely copy styles (both vocal and instrumental) straight from past and present soul classics. Palmer and his backup group seem to be capable of original thought. The fact that Sneaking Sally stood up to repeated play is probably due to his assimilation of influences from the entire spectrum of black music, rather than emulation of some facets thereof, as is the case with other artists in the same vein. In this respect, Palmer's work is similar to that of the American band Little Feat, and in fact, much of it sounds remarkably like them. Pressure Drop, his new album, is no exception (he is accompanied by all of Little Feat here), although he steps outside the confines of their southern funk, through the use of other backing musicians and clever production, to encompass a much broader range of styles. Palmer makes better use of his heavily R&B-influenced voice here than on the last LP, abandoning (for a few cuts at least) the pleasures of the flesh. The clincher is of course the title song, a reggae number originally done by the infamous Toots and the Maytals. Again, the music is perfect, a genuine slice of Jamaica, 1—3—5 bass line and Harry Belafonte-type backing vocals joyously dirging on for 5:26 about “Pressure drop/Oh pressure/Yeah pressure's gonna drop on you." Reggae fans may bemoan the fact that there is only one such song on the album, but I personally consider this to be an asset. Judging by Palmer's male-chauvinist sense of humor (as well a; the album's cover), "Pressure Drop" is a thinly Veiled reference to post-coital Film is worthwhile with excellent acting by Randi Schnur Arts Editor The setting is "India: the Northwest Frontier;" the year is 1878. Nowhere else but in the farthest corner of their empire could and Englishmen be quite so stiff, so formal, so completely proper under the influence of nothing so much as that infamous Victorian morality could their prissy' "respectability" be so hypocritical. The impeccably bred officers of the British Army featured in Conduct Unbecoming, Michael Anderson's film of the play by Barry England, are further restrained by the great weight of the white man's burden which they carry on their shoulders at all times; among the savages of India, of course, they must always appear as the paragons of civilization they so firmly believe themselves to be. It is difficult to disturb their supreme complacency or shake their confidence, but it is — not impossible. England’s play deals with the two most devastating crises these men could conceivably be made to face: loss of manhood and, even more traumatic, loss of honor, among the military sub-culture and among friends. "It is necessary, at whatever cost, to support the honor of the regiment," the seasoned captain informs the new young lieutenant. A question of honor "Gentlemen do not question the honor of other gentlemen," the to colonel states unequivocally and almost unnecessarily whomever will listen. When that so-called "honor" must finally be scrutinized, after a violent and rather incredibly sordid assault on Mrs. Scarlett, the camp-follower widow of one of the officers ("Don't but." "Oh, yes. How misunderstand me. She is very much a lady and how marvelously euphemistic the old soldiers can distressing” be!) the inevitable results are nothing less than total humiliation and — — — moaning, shouting and raspmess which turn many people off to his vocals. "Give Me an Inch Girl," "Back In My Arms" and "Which of Us is the Fool," all penned by Palmer, are state-of-the-art pop tunes which bear no resemblance at all to the "Dixie Chicken" genre, and are enhanced greatly by producer Steve Smith's use lush vocal Philly-soul of orchestration and harmonies. These songs also present one aspect of Pressure Drop's main theme, that of male-female relationships, both cerebral and otherwise. The aspect displayed in these songs (yearning, lovesick appeals to a woman) is more than compensated for by the tongue in-cheek humor of other lyrics on the album, as well as the blatantly sexist cover photos. "Work to Make it Work," another Palmer composition, is a textbook example of the work form, with very authentic backing vocals and music supplied by Little Feat, as well as a perfectly restrained brass arrangement couresy of the Muscle Shoals Horns. The lyrics, taken in context, seem to imply that the "work" being done is that of landing someone in bed. The Allen Toussaint song "Riverboat" is covered excellently here, the song/spiritual keyboards of Bill Payne and the guitars of Lowell George and Paul Barrere lending credence to a well instrumentation. New Orleans thought-out Toussaint's lyrics fit in with the rest of the album thematically, dealing in a light-hearted way with the — depression. (He is pictured on the front cover standing between a naked woman and an unmade bed, thoughtfully considering the channel-changer of his TV set.) Side as side two, although not as interesting musically one, remains in character with the ideas developed there. "Here With You Tonight" and "Fine Time" are two more decent attempts at honest-to-goodness R&B, written by Palmer and (what else) pulled off well by the session men. The former is a warning to a woman on the rebound that she may never see the singer again ("I ain't no substitution for the guy/Who left you alone"), while the latter voices Palmer's reaction to a recent conquest's request for housing ("This is a fine time/To tell me that you wanna stay here"). Also is the Lowell George song "Trouble,” which surprisingly enough sounds just like Little Feat. I would recommend this album (obviously) to anyone who likes Little Feat, and I know there are a included lot of you out there. Also, I would recommend it to all the sex-mongers among you (I know there are a lot those too), and lastly to anyone who likes to dance or who has ever been in love (in that order). I guess that puts Pressure Drop on a lot of holiday shopping lists. —John Duncan suicide. The obvious suspect in the case, particularly since he makes no at all to deny Mrs. Scarlett's accusations, is Lieutenant Millington, a dashing new recruit who exudes dishonorable intentions and all-around bad faith. ("Did I hear correctly? Ladies? Voluptuous ladies?" is his first reaction to the orientation speech.) Rather than subject him to court-martial and the whole regiment to scandal, Millington's fellows elect to try him in a sort of semi-official attempt after-hours kangaroo court. Freedom of choice Allowed to choose his own defense counsel, the accused taps Lieutenant Drake, who arrived in India on the same train and has been trying to shake any association with the self-acknowledged scoundrel ever since. Drake, naturally, turns out to be the only truly honorable man in the camp; even with Millington pleading "indifferent" and Captain Harper, the presiding officer, reminding him again and again that his job is simply to give in as quickly and cleanly as possible, the young lieutenant manages to discredit virtually everybody in the and to vindicate the defendant as regiment whether living or dead — well. Conduct Unbecoming is a perfect one-set courtroom drama; the restraints imposed by the limited space automatically increase the tension all by themselves, and the necessary tightness of a decent production would underline the corresponding tightness in the characters' own minds. Opened up to include more than just the courtroom, however, the film loses a lot of that necessary tension; the whole concept of dishonor as disaster seems awfully trivial set against even the very few glimpses of background director Anderson gives us Minor roles well acted The acting is generally excellent, particularly that of "minor" like Trevor Howard as the father-of-us-all Colonel Strang, players whose beautiful combination of military pride and personal humility finally forces him to admit that "I am the regiment. What I have allowed to happen in the regiment is what I am," and Richard Attenborough's ever-so-cooperative, secretly demonic Major Reach, Susannah York is appropriately attractive and disdainful as Mrs. Scarlett (as is James Faulkner as Maillington), but far more credible as which was apparently the seductress than as woman wronged director's intent. The film's one really regrettable scene involves her lapse into dazed horror as she re-enacts what really happened for the court, but the fault there is screenwriter Robert Enders', not hers. — Michael York is his usual incredibly sincere self, a character trait that fits Lieutenant Drake perfectly. Only Stacy Keach's Captain Harper, who believes as firmly as anyone in the all-importance of honor but is also the first to understand Drake's point, is somewhat less than adequate. His should be the most conflict-ridden character in the film, but the effects of that conflict are left mainly to audience inference. Although sometimes strained and not quite as earth-shattering as they might be, the events in Conduct Unbecoming make for terrific theatre and pretty good cinema. Now playing at the Amherst Theatre, it is stimulating (even if not precisely exciting), eminently professional, and well worth your time. Prodigal Sun Friday, 5 December 1975 .

Patti Smith, emaciated, alabaster, moon child and impish darling of the New York City avant garde has given birth to an intriguing hybrid of poetics and rock. Rock poetry has become a much abused and cliche ridden term, too often afflicted with romantic histrionics or dubious plumbings into decadence. Indeed, some might perceive Patti's poetic preoccupations as a descent and embracing of decadence. A case could be mustered to this end and no double ably defended. Certainly decadence for the sake of decadence is a cul-de-sac. If subjects like suicide, murder, sex of all delicious and deviant forms offends your sensibilities perish any further thoughts about Ms. Smith and look elsewhere for your illumination. Might I propose television. Patti Smith's rhythms dance beyond the confinements and easy classification of decadence offered by those of a staunch middle class backbone. For those not so easily swayed or rattled, Patti Smith unearths a cosmos of images which more often than not connect with the unconscious and stir flame from stone. Smith's back-up band, composed of ex-rock critic Lenny Kaye among others, alternatively lashes out a simplistic, primal rock and soft reverberations of textures and coloration. It is from this musical construct that Patti pauses and prances, weaving word tapestries that cut through consciousness and sear the unchartered lagoons of the mystery shrouded id-consciousness. The opus "Land" is a prime example of this aural assault that shakes the roots of consciousness. force of rock incorporating "Land of a Thousand motifs as indigenous to rock as Rockefeller is to The capitalism. themes examined are sex and violence, the vertible vital organs of the corpus of rock. Patti, through merging and conflicting rhythm patterns, injects a cinematic flair which enables the motifs to congeal and flood the senses. "Land" is the stark anatomy of rock 'n "Land" is a Dances" to tour de explore roll. Patti and the band do a remarkable version of Van Morrison's "Gloria." The version provides Patti an opportunity to play her gender games by seducing a sweet, young thing to the incessant pealings of the church tower bell. After Patti's done, the song bears her unique stamp. There's a reggae tune, "Redondo Beach," dealing with a suicide, and an infectious rocker, "Free Money," extols the merits of ready cash, lottery tickets, and dreaming in bed. Not all that Patti touches turns to gold. Occasionally her vocal cadences slur, perhaps in an attempt at affect or pristine emotion, rendering some images incomplete and fragmented. At times Lenny Kaye and the boys are too simplistic for their own good and fail to see when a bit of the dynamic might be more to the point. These faults remain minor. Horses conveys an evocative, sensuously rich, erotic probe into the grottos of rock. Patti Smith has broken through. If you drift towards a bohemian cool, hook up with Horses. —C.P. Parkas Prodigal Sun �Dmytryk film The Human Factor' neglects its audience Edward Dmytryk's The Human Factor raises some small marginal issues that are nevertheless more interesting than the ones supposedly dealt with, but actually ignored by the film itself. This extremely violent film pretends to concern itself with the fictional political assassinations of American families in England, but its true interest is dealing irresponsibly with vigilante violence, or Walking Tall revisited (Walking Tall was also morally reprehensible, but at least it was done with competence). Not so with The Human Factor. Dmytryk had distinguished himself somewhat in the 40's with a few trashy but palatable films Murder My Sweet (Farewell My Lovely), Crossfire, etc. and moved into the 50's with such films as The Sniper, and my favorite, Raintree County. Dmytryk's 60's films include the consummate but enjoyable trash of The Carpetbaggers, Where Love Has Gone (the one with Joey Heatherton knifing her mother's lover and ending with Susan Hayward driving hurriedly to her artist's studio and there committing suicide with her chisel) and the excellent 40's throwback Mirage. Dmytryk's last known film was the awfully campy Bluebeard (Richard Burton, as Virna Lisi, a modern day Bluebeard has done in quite a few wives Raquel Welch, etc. and now it's Joey Heatherton's turn. Burton goes through a long, sweaty and intense soliloquy relating the Freudian frustrations that have driven him bananas and why Heatherton has to die also, to which she calmly replies, "I have my own problems, too."). - - Against something Dmytryk's theme has always been the individual against something (anyone for a Films of Edward Dmytryk book) and through the considerable mire he has indicated an even and serious intelligence. Here George Kennedy is up against the unknown murderers of his family the murderers turn out to be incarnated by actors looking and like rejects from What's My Line. Rita Tushingham, that fine acting British actress (A Taste of Honey. Girl with Green Eyes, The Knack ) plays Kennedy's assistant and the scriptwriters actually try to drum up a “thing" between this odd couple (Ennio Morricone's music gets in between murders). downright sweet when they gaze at each other what becomes of Now that brings us to a rather delicate issue who Tushingham, 60's, of the like Ms. the anti heroines and heroes Lynn virtuosity acting looks sheer their odd with overcame Redgrave, Vanessa Redgraye, Richard Benjamin, to mention a few.

Prodigal Sun Friday, 5 December 1975 . The Spectrum . Page thirtee �RECORDS Sparks, Indiscreet (Island) As you may or may not know, about two or three years ago there was a sudden upsurge in the number of pop groups coming from Great Britain. Variable in quality, a few of the groups had one hit and were never head of again, while others were so successful that they even managed to get some notice on this side of the Atlantic. The boom seems to be dying down now, and as the dust settles, it's nice to see Sparks emerging as one of the more worthwhile bands spawned from that era. Indiscreet is the third British offering from this unusual group. They had two albums while they were still on the West Coast, but they never went anywhere. Like its predecessors. Indiscreet explores a certain subtlety in style, giving no indication as to what the group is going to do for its next effort, but never sounding tired or monotonous. Still, it maintains some innate quality which is very characteristic of Sparks. It is difficult to say what that quality is. Listening to the two albums that came before this one, you could easily say the music, and the band itself, was based on some sort of nervous energy. However, this time around some of the energy is exchanged for a slightly more mature, serene sound. The credit, or blame, for this should probably go to Tony Visconti, their new producer, who has also de-emphasized the guitar but kept the band's electronic some defects too. Russ Mael's vocals occasionally sound like those of Tiny Tim, and there are a few lethargic spots. Nothing on it comes close to the material on Kimono My House, so if you've never liked Sparks, this album is not going to convert you. Taken on its own terms though, it is one of the most interesting albums released this year. E. Zielinski — Michael Murphey, Swans Against the Sun (Epic) Michael Murphey has all the necessary ingredients required to join the ranks of the elite band of musicians born in the early seventies known as singer-songwriters. Murphey sings in a sweet and pleasing tenor, plays a number of instruments proficiently, including guitar, banjo and mandolin and writes most of his own material. His giant AM hit "Wildfire" established Murphey's reputation as a pop-folk singer with great potential. However, he hasn't quite transcended the barrier between a one-hit AM success and a recognized artist, and this album certainly won't help him any. Viewed from a strictly technical angle, the album is not that bad. The instrumentation is superb; Murphey employs a whooping country fiddle, dobro, lapslide, banjo and mandolin among the finger-picking guitars which dominate the album. The arrangements and production of the album is also deftly done, and the vocal harmonies between Murphey and a studio singer named John Denver are airtight. Yet, despite all this technical proficiency, this is the most boring album I have ever listened to. I find I fall asleep as soon as Murphey begins with the first tune, "Swans Against the Sun," and slumber peacefully through all the repetitive muck that follows till "Seasons Change," the last cut. On a scale of one to ten this album falls somewhere between one glass of warm milk and two Sominex tablets. Perhaps the friction of the stereo needle against the record groove liberates some sort of depressant gas which causes one to nod out for 40 minutes. The fact that Murphey's songwriting abilities are erratic if not negligible could be a contributing factor to the boredom of this album. Each song sounds like the one before it, except with a nicer arrangement. Murphey's style defines any definite categorization, one can hear strains of folk, with elements of syrupy AM pop, brought to you in a rhapsodies with complex texture and pinnacles leaving the listener with an exhilarated "up" impression. When Wakeman adapts "Hungarian Rhapsody" and "Free at Last" to synthesizer he gets carried away leaving one hyperventilating and feeling down; the synthesizing of synthesizers is overproduced. In Liszt's time, piano seemed to be the pop rage that could be mastered relatively well. Since the synthesizer has yet to be mastered, perhaps electric guitar might have been used to portray the Liszt phenomenon. I can see it now: Leo Kottke and Bruce Springsteen starring in Lisztomania. -Harold Goldberg Jan Hammer, The First Seven Days (Nemperor) After the breakup of the original Mahavishnu Orchestra, fans of keyboard stylist Jan Hammer, enticed by his innovative yet tasteful utilization of electronics, anxiously awaited a solo album. They were sorely disappointed by the embarrassing Like Children (Jerry in which Goodman/Jan Hammer), an album vocals and terrible instrumentals over-pretentious overshadowed the brief moments of interest. The First Seven Days, Hammer's first solo album, is a vast improvement over Like Children, and even though it is not exactly a masterpiece, it is very good, if only from a technical point of view. On this album, Hammer is in his neat country western package. The style is definitely Murphey's own, and his uniqueness is all he has at this lend him credit A good production job by Bob Johnston, strong arrangements by Murphey and his band (in which Charlie Daniels lends a hand and clean, clear vocals almost save this album from being a total waste. If Murphey only had material other than his own to work with we'd have a damn good country-western singer on our hands, as his "Mansion on the Hill" by Hank Williams proves. As for Michael Murphey, I'd keep an ear out for him in the future. As for this album, the cover art isn't too bad. —Lesh point to keyboard framework intact. This gives the cuts a clean sound, and none of them are overproduced. Perhaps the best thing about the album is that Sparks have almost fully realized their limitations, or else they've imposed limitations upon themselves which other pop groups have not even tried recently. Either consciously or discovered that the best pop song half pop song, a short so of the cuts are under three is minutes and only one track goes over four. Nevertheless, Ron Mael, who wrote most of the tunes, manages to cram unconsciously they have them full of interesting, and sometimes downright peculiar Lisztomania lyrics. (Soundtrack) (A&M Records) Lisztomania is Ken Russell's latest attempt at success. Roger Daltry and Rick Wakeman are both notable and successful musicians in their respective rock fields. Franz Liszt was a success in the nineteenth century. One would think that putting all these success stories together would make for an inventive and likeable movie Hello down there This is your creator with a questionnaire Hello up there / don't have time to fill out questionnaires. While Sparks Is knowh for its unique style, there are a few songs here that may surprise even an avid fan. Certain styles have been taken and tailored to fit Sparks' own style. Thus they use country rock to make one cut sound like a square dance, and a string quartet to make another song sound like something from an operetta. There is also an imitation of the Big Band Era which is very well done. All of this may sound a bit strange, but it comes off better than you would expect. soundtrack. It doesn't happen. Ken Russell is concerned with the pop attraction of today, solely to make money it's — difficult to present the classical as pop without sacrificing much of the classical or pop. Roger Daltry has been beneficial to the rock industry by singing and performing with the Who. His voice isn't that good (Lord, have I just crucified a god?) especially when combined with slow, musically intense pieces like those of Liszt's. The album has many good points, but it does have Liszt's music is nineteenth century pop ballads and own element; except for a percussionist on two cuts and a violinist on three, Hammer plays everything here, creating incredibly dense textures for his seven new compositions. Centered around the theme of the creation of the earth, the album is a fairly varied collection of vehicles for Hammer's accomplished piano and snythesizer work, although a whole record of solos by any one person is bound to be slightly repetitive. Of note is Hammer's interesting application of a “computerized" synthesizer and his inventive use of snythesized orchestration. Hammer also plays drums on some of the album, not too badly either. The First Seven Day is a must for lovers of old-time Mahavishnu, Walter Carlos and/or any "classical" electronic music. It beats the hell out of Rick Wakeman. —John Duncan The Spectrum office will be open regular hours next week: 9 a.m.—5 p.m. for copying with Gus office will be open Monday only, 9 a.m.—5 p.m., to accept ads for Wednesday's The Spectrum (our last issue this semester) office will be open Tuesday and Wednesday only, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. for University Photo.

Who's To Bless rectify the whole but does have some departures from the overly laid back for which Kristofferson is notorious. Side one opens with "The Year 2000 Minus 25," a modern compositions protest song. Kris prefers to chance condemnation from various groups with lyrics such as: Power isn't, power does, and power slips away I t's so easy to abuse Who'da thought them Arabs woulda bought the U.S.A. Just to give it to the Jews than to replay his average hard-luck country women and drinking themes. Risque as it sounds, it works to his advantage. This is one of the best cuts on the album. My favorite, though, was co-written with Roger McGuinn and Bobby Neuwirth, and is entitled "Rocket to Stardom." Kristofferson's dilemma seems to be keeping people from his house. Neuwirth's sense of humor is apparent in the lyrics, and Kris carries it off with a cynical. musing tone. Of course, the record does have its share of country-ish things, but they are pleasant, rather than somnambulic. "Stranger" and "Easy, Come On" follow the usual heartache track, but the title cut and "Don't Cuss the Fiddle," a track about songwriters, compensate nicely. He has some of the best session musicians: Lee Sklar on bass, Bobbye Hall Mike Utley percussion, on on keyboards and vocalists Clydie Herb Vanetta Fields, King, Pedersen and fellow Oates. actor Warren have behind them, The O'Jays have put out an excellently produced album that stands as their finest to date. The sensational sound achieved by utilizing that fine blend of embracing orchestration, get it on rhythm and dynamic harmonies, which has been hailed as "The Sound of Philadelphia" is at its finest when in the hands of Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff. Every number of Family Reunion has a refreshing crispness and flavor to it. The O'Jays have picked up slices of other bright artists' styles, such as Wilson Pickett and the Temptations (their counterparts over in Detroit) and molded them smoothly to their own style. Songs such as "I Love Music" (their latest hit) and "Unity" jump to a lively two step disco beat that shies away from the heavy bass and blaring horns incorporated by most groups in the boogie on down school of rhythm and blues. It's the lack of these items that allow these two numbers to stand out as well as they do. On the other end of the scale are "Stairway to Heaven" and "You and Me" songs which are given such well thought out composition that I just drift off into a haze every time I hear them. The sound to these mellow numbers are so full that their ease and sweet sanctity seem to fill the been an able practitioner for years and continues the trend with this release. —Barbara Komansky With Family Reunion. The O'Jays have conquered both ends of the soul spectrum. There are songs with the power to drive you to get up and get down, just as there are songs that have the grace to urge you to get down with our lady and get it on. —Howie Spierer Crack The O'Jays, Family Reunion (Philadelphia International) The O'Jays have been around How much can you expect from a group called "Crack The Sky?" And what more can you expect when they put out an album of the same name? As it turns out, the music on this album modulates from interesting to intense, from played out to rather Crack The Sky is composed of John Palumbo, who plays keyboards and guitars, and his back up band. Palumbo penned all of the songs on the alburn, and long, them long time and to recognition lords of Philadelphia group. Palumbo's it's gain a common theme of self analysis soul. Now that they are on top, it would be all too easy to quickly spew out crude and commercial material that could cash in on the current disco craze. From the sound of their latest album, Family Reunion, it sounds as though the drive for the big buck has been passed up in favor of the urge to achieve perfection. Taking all those years of experience they Prodigal Sun the are not bad, although he suffers from a lack of originality. His lyrics seem to have taken the they deserve as the awhile for compositions a album cover was very reminiscent of Album 1700 minus the 1920's gangster trappings. However, once the album was put on the turntable, most, if not all, similarities ended. Back Street Crawler, The Band Plays On (Atco Records) band sounds like every other group in the world. All throughout the album there are suggestions of Bad Co., Slade, Steely Dan, Traffic, Free and even the Stones. Everything Back Street Crawler does on this album has been done before, and done much better, by one of these bands. Lead singer Terry Slesser easily fluctuates from a cheap imitation of dagger to a poor emulation of Paul Williams, and the transition is uncomfortable because, quite simply, one would rather listen to the real thing than ripoffs bad this band the This produces. At one point, the album begins sounding like it might be palatable for AM radio so, appropriately enough, I switched the speed to 45. I discovered that side two of this album would make a pretty good AM single if you don't listen to it too carefully. You can catch Steely Dan riffs and Stevie Wmwood vocals whizzing by you at 45 rpms, and it's over so quickly it's almost enjoyable. -Lesh Prelude, Owlcreek Incident (Pye) At first I suspected that this group was trying to be the Peter, • and introspection, although he possesses neither the subtlety of a James Taylor nor the comedy of a However, Randy Newman.

Unfortunately, there is nothing a cappella on this album, and the weak harmonies and thin choruses in no way compensate for it. The melodies it's almost always second rate, and when a good one does come across, its merits are nullified by inane lyrics. album is monotonous. They are the main factors in Prelude's destruction of Kenny Loggin's "A Love Song" and Jackson Browne's "To A Dancer." The low point of the album is reached on "Me and the Boy," which sounds like the music you hear in the background or McDonald's of Pepsi commercials. This group could have a future on the but nowhere else. What we replacement have here is not a for Peter, Paul & Mary; it's more of a reworked version of the New Seekers. If you like that kind of music, you'll like the album, but 1 feel that most people would prefer something with a little more substance and a lot less boredom. —E.

Still, Styx's integrating of music and lyric is no break with tradition, it's no pace setter; it jumps on the money-making flight of today falling on yesterday's success. But it's fun, is organized well, and becomes part of you through unobtrusive, easily remembered melody and lyric.

They do not hesitate to break into complex syncopation and weaving vocal harmonies which are mildly stunning to a musical ear. While John Palumbo appears to be the driving talent in this band, it is impossible to overlook the strength with which the other four members deliver his songs. Crack The Sky has potential to be a realty proficient band, if they'd establish some sort of definite identity and change their name. —Lesh room pleasant you're into laidback country rock, Kristofferson has If Paul PLATTERS .60 extra, includes a mountain of french fries, cole slaw and a barrel-cured dill pickle. 1.05 1.20 BIG "M” BURGER with melted American cheese Melted American cheese lettuce i/, lb. steakburger on a fresh toasted sesame bun lb 1 20 MOON BURGER of melted provolone or sw 'Iss over a [/4 lb steakburger on a fresh toasted sesame bun.

As evidence of this fact, witness the recent popularity of super-powered amplifiers in home music systems Several hundred watts of amplifier power used to be regarded a frivolous excess., but tests have confirmed that these power levels are a practical necessity tor faithful reproduction of modern recordings with low efficiency speakers.

Tripp, Matrix McGraw-Hill (hardcover , $10.00) For years members of the gay community have been fighting the intolerance of the majority. The laws, moral codes, propaganda and discriminatory practices have all been on the side of staid Catholic taste and tradition-bound controls. The alleged professions of psychiatry and psychology, supported by the other medical had that arenas, claimed homosexual relations were, at socio-pathic various times, arrested disturbances, development, a broken link in the supposed oedipal chain or any other indistinct and popular label. 1974 this oppressive In but not tradition was cracked entirely broken when the American Psychiatric Association voted to remove “homosexuality” from its “sickness list.” This action was followed by a similar the American by move Psychological Association. In both cases, however, the votes were only by a majority and not unanimous. Fven as the gay press screamed headlines of “Sick No More” and thousands of gays reaffirmed their long held beliefs with cries of "we told you so” it was still painfully that public apparent — — understanding behind. lagged by Efforts sadly far the gay community to raise the awareness of the general public are making a few inroads but what was lacking, until now, was an intelligent approach presented respected by an the This the sciences and absence has been corrected with publication of The the Homosexual Matrix by C.A. Tripp, M.D. First, 1 must say there can never be a totally comprehensive book dealing with all aspects of gay life styles. It will require several generations of total legal freedom and anti-discriminatory authority legislation by public. before an objective work dealing with honosexuality and gay life styles is possible. But Tripp’s book is an excellent start Homosexual Matrix The demolishes the successfully “crime against nature” argument with incredible ease. "nature exists as an entity, that it "knows" what it is doing, that it has any aims to be careless about, that "wants” to it precreate in the first place, or for that matter, that it gives a damn about what happens . . . (pg. 16) in spite of the obvious falsity ” of the “crimes against Nature” argument, it is still present in many state legal codes. The word unnatural is bandied about by the detractors of homosexuality with passionate ease and conviction Tripp’s handling of Freudian ideology is brilliant. Unlike many others, he refuses to believe in the mentally of a few primacy 19th century disturbed with their Austro-Hungarians attendant emotional disorders. THE infamous guilt feelings, and now classic behavioral patterns. The limited scope of Freud’s data is dissected and examined in the light of modern biological, anthropological, and zoological facts. (Until only recently the of practitioners psychological pursuits based theorizations on patient studies rather than field work.) The Homosexual Matrix is the culmination of ten years of work by the author Although his major field of interest is psychology (he spent nine years on the faculty of the SUNY Downstate Medical Center and is currently practicing in New York). Tripp is equally at home in the areas of anthropology The and medical research. Origins ‘‘The of chapters and “The Heterosexuality” Origins Of Homosexuality” cover wide areas: male bonding (i.e. clubs, “boy’s night out,” etc.), the berdache of the American Indian, and the affections strong exhibited by the males of some primitive, or pre-judeo/;hristian, -indust ia 1, tribes. Although I feel there are not enough examples given, it is obvious from the text the and from extensive bibliography that the author is quite at home doing cross-cultural work with chapters dealing The biological materials and sexual inversion could easily stand by separate themselves publication. Sex researchers must necessarily explore the realm of when sciences biological attempting to explain our sexual behavior. This area of study can intricate and highly become note J. Money’s speculative: works dealing with the hormonal possible secretions and their impact upon the fetus during the first trimester, taking into account the minute amounts of different hormones, their actions (both separately and in concert with each other), the times of the secretions, ideal and actual growth rates of the fetus, and a host of other variables. Tripp handles this type of material in an easily read, jargon-free style that makes the reader aware of the research in these fields without the need for tedious trips to the dictionary He deals with the theory of sexual inversion (the reversal of standard behavior) gender-identified showing it to be prominent even in non-homosexual relations. This is some of the most interesting, even entertaining, reading 1 have society. There is one disappointing that dealing with the politics of homosexuality. It is not disappointing in what it says, but in what it does not say. In spite of this it is still a fascinating section. It covers the 1955-56 scandal in Boise, Idaho that was blown way out of proportion by a local political faction. (See The Boys of Boise by John Gerassi). It deals with the extreme political and economic on pressure brought to bear Kinsey and his associates after the publication of Sexual Behavior in the Human Male (1948). And it shows how people in power use their knowledge about others for political gain. (The FBI at one time operated a house of male prostitution and staffed it with homosexual agents.) What is not dealt with is the birth of the modern gay rights from the dating movement, Stonewall Riots in June of 1969. The oriented gay politically activist will consider this a major which it is. (Those oversight events took place during the research and it is author’s therefore curious at best that they and major legal changes since only play then an inconspicuous part in this work.) Tripp can be forgiven this oversight in view of his position (Those on psychotherapy. psychiatrists whose main source is derived from of income chapter — "cures” undoubtedly promised will try to find fault with Tripp’s findings here.) His conclusion on “cures” is simple; forget it! There “cure” for homosexual orientation. Human sexuality (in is no this case homosexuality) is so deeply engraved into our basic pre-school, and possibly pre-natal, experiences that it cannot be drastically altered to fit a more acceptable social pattern. That is to say. sexual orientation cannot homosexuality. His work is easily read and should be read by anyone who has an interest in the total picture of human sexuality. It is seldom that a reviewer gets a chance to read a basic text that will become a standard in clinical and general research. That is what a work that will this book is rank with those of Kinsey. Masters and Johnson, and Altman. Al Hershhagcr be changed, but the patient can be encouraged to form acceptance patterns in the self and develop the ability to cope with social pressures. Another oversight is the lack of material dealing with lesbianism, but this can be explained, at least to my satisfaction, by considering the difficulty a man would have writing about a totally female experience. It is to be hoped that some woman sex researcher will shortly deliver a work to us dealing with this important area.

Right now the generally bad economic conditions threaten the existence of the program, but even in past years when more money was available, state regulations prohibited any scholarship programs for athletics. On the other side of the coin, big time sports schools spend fantastic amounts of money to seek out and enroll high school graduates who have potential as collegiate athletes. Players like Archie Griffin and Scott May are offered tremendous benefits by schools across the land that want top, competitive programs. There are many critics who say that this overexpenditure is a misplacement of values that all this money should be channeled away from excessive recruiting and into education. Many people are willing to accept modest recruiting schemes, but gifts of money, cars and clothing are considered outlandish. There is a solution to all this and it should be called the “Sports University” or SU. It’s the dream of Sports Information Directors everywhere. SU is the perfect vehicle for the advancement of collegiate sports as it stands now, yet it protects the academic universities from blowing endowments on 8000 gallons of Gatorade. First of all, the university would be built in one of those nice towns in the southern midwest. Since Norman, Oklahoma is already taken, we think that Joplin, Missouri is the next best place. There would be high tuition for such an perhaps $9000 a year extravagant undertaking but it wouldn’t matter since everyone would be on scholarships anyhow. Although the student-athletes would be forced to live on campus, each would be permitted to decorate his three-room suite to his own liking, making use of a $750 decorating budget. The menu would be simple enough. There would be steak and potatoes for dinner. And for breakfast and lunch. Each player would get two pounds of steak and a quart of spuds for each meal. One quart of ice cream for late night snacks would also be available. The curriculum would he vastly different at SU than at a regular college. Instead of hogging athletes down with irrelevant courses like Crayons 101 or Organized Crime, SU would offer vocationally worthwhile courses. 01 course, five hours each day would be spent in intensive training with coaches, doctors, water boys, trainers, and locker room attendants on hand to take care of any eventuality. This practice time, along with regularly scheduled contests against other SU’s in places like Sacramento, California, Savannah, Georgia, Decatur, Illinois, and Amarillo, Texas, would - with just Get your new Metro Bus route map about everything you need to know to ride all — through Erie and Niagara Counties by sending a self-addressed, business-size envelope with 20« postage to Metro Bus, 855 Main St..

Incidentally, the SU program does not entail a set number of years. Students graduate when they’re drafted by a pro team, and graduation exercises are staggered to fall one week after the draft meetings in each sport. Getting back to the curriculum, it was stated earlier that SU would offer more worthwhile courses than what is normally available. For instance, Basic Acting would be a required course. In fact, it would span two semesters. In the first half, athletes would learn how to fool officials into calling penalties like roughing the kicker (for punters), tripping (for hockey players), and charging (for basketball players). In the second half, athletes would learn to speak well and look natural on camera so that they would be more in demand for advertising endorsements. Other courses would include Cliches 101 for press conferences and Cliches 201 for athletes interested in a post-career position in the announcing booth. Another entry would be “Successful Contract Negotiations” also known as “How to Beat The Rozelle Rule.” Students would be required to buy a ticket for admission to class $.50 for the back of the room and $.75 for the front. Classes sold out 72 hours in advance would be televised on campus closed circuit TV with voice over commentary by Howard Cosell. The conventional A-B-C . . grading system would of course be archaic in this sort of experimental atmosphere. Instead, students would be rated as one of the following; Superstar; One of the smartest and most consistent; Up and coming great; Superstar potential but prone to rookie mistakes; Good sixth man off the bench; Needs more experience; Lacks talent but has the drive and attitude to make it. Some classes would also be graded on the following basis; First string, second string, third string, bench warmer, taxi squad, minor • - . leaguer. But what about funding for all of this? Gate receipts is the logical answer. Imagine the public interest that an SU Conference would create. SU could charge $25 a ticket to football games, and it wouldn’t have to worry about not selling out. Besides after a few years, alumni earning salaries with six figures as pro players could be counted on regularly for large contributions. Other scholarship trust funds would be set up by athletes who are indebted to SU forever, and these funds could be managed to produce another steady stream of income. Betting on SU games would increase revenues as would TV rights, and at the same time, this would expose student athletes to what they would get when they turned pro. All in all SU is a revolutionary and brilliant idea which could change the face of collegiate sports forever. - RttenVio"""""" "TZ"""" 7 Fans: Kmcks York New i I j I I I Please come out and try to help the Knicks against the Braves Friday 9 Dec. 12 at 8:00 pm Page twenty - Buffalo Memorial Auditorium Tickets available at Norton Ticket Office. .

Join thethird Grua/in, by Larry Amoros Staff Writer Last weekend the hockey Bulls were scheduled to play a pair of games against the Ohio State Buckeyes. What they got instead was a collaboration of fistcuffs, boxing matches, high sticks, and cheap shots, intermingled with hockey. The Buckeyes, in Division I of the Central Collegiate Hockey Association (CCHA) swept the series by scores of 6-3 and 8-2, leaving the Bulls with a 2-6-1 record, although all of the losses have come against Division I teams. In the series opener, the Bulls led 2-1 with 14 minutes left to play when Buffalo goaltender Johnny Moore mishandled a clearing attempt and fed the puck to Ohio’s Morris Nord, who fired the disc into the empty net. The Buckeyes tallied four more times in the final frame to put the game on ice, and send the Bulls looking to even things up on Tuesday in the world. night.

War on the ice The opener turned out to be an omen of things to come not only in the final results, but in the actual manner that the game was played. There was a total of 66 penalty minutes called (44 to Ohio State), the result of frequent high sticking, boarding and roughing infractions. The game got particularly out of hand in its waning minutes, when, with all the scoring completed, Ohio State’s Bruce Allworth instigated a fight with the Bulls' diminutive center Kurt Schoemann, thereby setting the stage for Tuesday night’s game. Nobody could have really predicted how the second game of the match would be played based upon the action in the first one. Buffalo coach Ed Wright thought the game would be played differently then it was. “1 thought they’d realize they couldn’t intimidate us and they’d stop all the crap. But instead they worked on intimidating the officials.” Work they did, and the officials apparently buckled under the constant pressure and abuse. Time after time, the Buckeyes chopped, hacked, and pushed their way towards the Bulls’ goal, without reprimand from the officials. Only some alert goaltending by Alex Swift kept Buffalo in the game in the tough moments. Swift recorded 38 saves in the contest with the last two Ohio State goals coming late in the game while the Bulls were a man down. Armageddon The referees, Robert Barnes and Richard Brinkman kept the penalty boxes full throughout the first two periods, but they finally lost control at 18:44 of the middle stanza as the walls came tumbling down. It started when Ohio State’s Steve Pankiw jumped Buffalo left winger Tom Haywood, and a fighl ensued. They were immediately mimicked by Jack Lampren and Ray "Toughie” , the “rjng” to ■ In the last chaotic bout, Haywood apparently hit his head on the ice, and remaned motionless in what seemed to be a state of unconsciousness for a few moments. The attacks were typical of the brand of “Zoo hockey” that the Buckeyes displayed throughout, and the officials were at the mercy of coach Jerry Welsh’s skaters. “They (the officials) let it get out of control. They ought to be ashamed of themselves,” said Wright. “Maybe they were awed by Ohio State University, and felt they had to even things out.” Wright was referring to the penalties called at the end of the major fight, when, despite proof from the scorer’s bench that Ohio State had three fighters to Buffalo’s two, the referee only sent two Buckeye players to the showers. OSU wins battle and war Amidst the rumbling and scuffling some hockey was played, and that’s when the Ohio skaters did their real damage. They scored on eight of the 46 shots they had, and kept goalie Swift busy much of the night. The Buffalo skaters did manage to direct 39 shots at Ohio goalies Dan Stergiou and Pat Lee, but the Buckeye netminders did a good job in keeping all but two out of the net. Jack Kaminska and Tony Scaring! tallied for the Bulls, and each also had an assist. Scaringi, normally a defenseman, was playing-left wing on the first line, as Kaminska was filling in at center for the ailing Rick Wolstenholme. The Bulls co-captain suffered a minor leg contusion in the opening game against Ohio State when he was slammed against the boards in the first period. The two losses to Ohio State could be attributed not only to the fact that the Buckeyes play in Division I, but also because of their recruiting process. Ohio State recruits players on a scholarship basis, which is in a sense, buying the players. Buying success “Being realistic, these players are hand picked,” commented Wright. “They’re on $60,000 grant programs, while we have kids right out of high school here because they love to play hockey. We playing Ohio State.” While the Bulls may not have any business playing a team like the Buckeyes, they skated well looking at it from Wright’s perspective. They played Ohio State almost evenly in the first two periods of both games, before finally losing in the third periods. “Why don’t they motivate the players who aren’t on grant aids? They should be searching themselves, not us,” added the Buffalo coach. “1 guess this whole series confirms my belief that in ECAC they don’t play this style of hockey. This isn’t college hockey, and this kind of crap isn’t appreciated by too many people,” Wright added. The skaters return to ECAC Division II competition on the thirteenth, when they travel to Ithaca College for two games against the Bombers. have no business Friday, 5 December 1975 . The Spectrum .

Wrestling Bulls wipe out Cornell 32—11 followed Hadsell's pin with one of his own. Prasgow had previously faced his foe, Tom Connick, and had beaten him embarrassingly with a major decision. A bar arm pin this time around shortened the match but increased the humiliation. The victory evened the Bulls' season record at I -1, atoning for last week’s 41 -0 slaughter by Eastern League foe Penn State. Yet despite the win. Coach Ed Michael claimed that the Bulls are not near their full potential as a team. Michael noted that several ol the Bulls were not as sharp against Cornell as they had been in the Colgate open last month. The Bulls will be in Pittsburgh next Tuesday for their second Eastern League match. If the Panthers are as tough this year as they have been in the past, then Buffalo will have its hands full. Michael expects the most help this year from his middle weight men, a switch from the past when 190-pounder Charlie Wright and 134-man Jim Young led the Bulls. Michael is quick to point out, however, that although his middle men are his most talented, stiffer competition in their weight classes may make things much more difficult. Tuesday night, the wrestling Bulls posted their first dual meet win of the season as they drubbed CornelT32-l 1 in Ithaca. Buffalo was led by freshmen Gene Tundo and co-Captains Eric Drasgow and Bruce Hadsell who each scored pins against the Big Red. Buffalo got off to a slow start in the lower weight classes. After freshman Tony Oliveri opened the contest with a decision win, Cornell posted a win and a draw in the next two classes. Tundo came out for the 142 match and promptly put Buffalo ahead to stay with a pin in a second round. With the score even at two, Tundo pinned his opponent with a Granby roll to Peterson. This aggressive move by Tundo sparked Buffalo to four more wins in a row. Hadsell clinched the match for Buffalo with his pin against Cornell's John Palladino. The 158-pounder was already out to a commanding 12-0 lead early in the second period when he delivered the crushing hold. .

Proposal for increase in medical school tuition by Charles Greenberg Spectrum Staff Writer The New York State Board of Regents has recommended that medical and dental school tuitions in the state be raised to $4,000 a year. This would mean an increase of about $2,400 above the current yearly tuition of $ 1,600 at State University of New York (SUNY) schools. The proposal was part of a Board of Regents plan for expanding medical and dental school facilities in New York State. The Regents seek to increase the number of medical school graduates from a current annual figure of 1,596 to 2,000 by 1990, due to the current shortage of physicians in New York. This would lead to an increase in the supply of physicians in the stale from the current 220 per 100,000 people to 260 per 100,000 people by the year 1990, according to Arnold Bloom, Director of Information at the State Department of Education. Bloom felt the thrust of the proposal would result in students paying an increased share of their annual education costs or about a third of the estimated $12,000 a year. Public costs down The proposed plan also calls for the state and federal governments to each pay about one third of the cost. This would mean a decrease in tuition and fees at public medical schools from about $8,600 a year per student, to $3,900 a year. The Regents also seek a boost in federal aid to both private and state schools, from the current $1,865 a year to $4,000 a year. “Another problem in New York is getting more upper division medical students to attend school,” according to Bloom. The Regents would like to encourage New York State residents studying abroad “to come home” for at least the last two years of study. In this way, the Regents can regulate the quality of medical care in the state. Presently, an aid formulate for upper class expansion pays a flat fee of $6,000 per student, based on a 1963 level of expansion. The Regents proposal includes plans for changing this to a $6,000 payment for each student, based on a 1973—74 level of expansion to aid more actively expanding schools. Bundy aid The Regents also asked for an increase in Bundy aid, which provides the eight private medical schools in New York state with funds each year, formulated on the basis of the total of degrees granted the previous year. The proposed program also calls for funds to aid in the conversion of community hospitals into teaching hospitals. It calls for the increasing of maximum student loan levels, from a yearly level of $2,500 to $5,000, and an increase of $10,000 to $20,000 in four years. “The Regents feel that doctors can count on a large income in latter years, to help offset this increased expense,” Bloom stated. State Senator James McFarland (R.-Tonawanda) who has been meeting with medical students at this University, consulted Willard Genrich, Chairman of the Regents Committee responsible for this study. According to McFarland. Genrich felt this program would increase the number of physicians in New York, while the cost increment for the students could be handled by increased educational grants. Power to act Neither the New York State Legislature nor the Regents themselves will have the actual power to raise ‘ tuition at SUNY medical and dental schools. According to the State Education Law (Section 3551), tuition at those schools is set by the SUNY Board of Trustees. McFarland stated that if the tuition increase does become a reality, the Legislature would have to work with the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP). McFarland felt that the Legislature would have to amend much of the current legislation to allow for increased benefits. Presently, tuition monies paid to SUNY, go to a general fund that pays for the bonded debts for SUNY construction, according to Carter Pannil, Vice President for Health Sciences at this University. He felt that unless there is a change in the law regarding the distribution of these funds, “we will not see the money stemming from the tuition increase.” Another major problem, according to Pannil, is a tuition increase along with a loan ceiling increase. This will lead to a slow improvement in the current situation. If students must borrow more money, he felt this would drain state resources so that the actual improvement in funding for state schools would not take place until students graduate and begin to repay these loans. Monetary woes Last year 384 students (70 percent of the medical school) received financial aid funneled through the financial aid office on this campus, said Rudy Williams, Financial Aid Officer and Assistant Dean of the Medical School. ‘The remaining students are saddled with loans from the bank or American Medical Association with interest rates as high as 11 percent,” added Williams. Williams said his office had about S341,000 available to meet the $1,634,235 needed by medical students. This year Williams estimates an additional drop of $27,000 in —continued on page 6— �Increase in donors expected this year by Mark Schwab Spectrum Staff Writer The Red Cross Bloodmobile expects to collect 1300 units of blood on campus this year, an increase of more than 100 units over last year. The success of the blood donation drive can be in large part attributed to the Blood Assurance Program, organized by Sub Board’s Health Division. v V With the start of the program last year, the number of units of donated blood jumped from 300 in 1973 to over 1200 in 1974. The increase was achieved by scheduling a Bloodmobile vision on one of the three University campuses every ten weeks, instead of a random four visits during 1973. The Bloodmobile’s last stop was on Tuesday at the Fargo Cafeteria in the Ellicott Complex and Its next scheduled appearance at the Main Street Campus in the Fillmore Room, on January 30. The number of donors averages between 200 and 250 per session or approximately three percent of the University community. Sub Board Health Divisipn Director A1 Campagna expressed concern for greater participation on the part of the student body. “Eighty open-heart surgeries are planned this year in the city of ten units of blood are needed for each one. People Buffalo alone need blood desperately, and it can’t be made synthetically.” > ... Benefits He also said the Blood Assurance Program entitles any faculty member or student and their families free blood in the case of emergencies, up until one year after departure from the institution. This blood supply and time limit also applies to any independent donors. Before any potential donor can give blood, it must be tested for deficiencies. The Bloodmobile is equipped to test respiration and pressure levels, body temperature, hemoglobin count, and whether or not the blood'is diseased. The donor must be between 18 and 65 years of age, not under 110 pounds, have a clean bill of health, not be pregnant and not have given blood in the last eight weeks. One unit of blood (SOcc) takes from IS to 20 minutes to give, and about two hours to replace completely. There are no side effects, and the donors can usually return to their normal activities immediately. By-products The blood is used for several purposes, all of them related to the life-saving measures. As soon as it is taken, the “whole blood” labelled either type O, A, B or AB, and Rh positive or Rh negative. Whole blood keeps only 21 days before the chemicals and proteins break down. Usually the plasma part of the blood is separated from the red and white cells by a process called centrifugation, because plasma is the same in everyone, regardless of blood type, and can be preserved much longer. A transfusion uses either plasma or whole blood, depending upon the patient’s condition and the time involved. Certain proteins can be extracted from the left-over red and white cells that help in treatment of various diseases and conditions. For example, fibrinogen can be made into transparent film that increases blood clotting to stop bleeding during surgery. Serum albumin is used for diseases of the kidney and liver, and in treatment of severe burns. Gamma globulin helps the body fight measles, and serotonin helps in combating shock. The American National Red Cross Association has estimated the nation’s potential blood requirement to be approximately six million units a year, or over ten units per minute. About three million units a year are collected. The blood is distributed to as many hospitals and physicians as possible.

Page three �College curtails enrollments the 64 campuses, plus a moratorium on building the Chronicle of Higher Education by Diane Auerbach projects, reported. (CPS) Students applying to state universities this winter may find themselves out in the cold. Although many private colleges are scrambling to fill empty classroom seats, public universities, with an eye on bursting classrooms and thinly stretched budgets, are turning students away. As a result, thousands of people who have attempted to escape an unfriendly job market by seeking refuge in school may find the doors closed by institutions that have economic problems of their own. In Colorado, hundreds of applicants were turned away from the University of Colorado’s (UC) Boulder campus, Colorado State University and the University of Northern Colorado because of enrollment ceilings imposed by the slate legislature. Classroom space is at such a premium that UC's College of Arts and Sciences has even launched a plan to weed out marginal students. The college has changed its rules to allow for academic suspension twice a year instead of once and has abolished the “sliding scale” which formerly gave a break to students with a grade point average below 2.0. Turning away so many qualified students while keeping students with deficient grades is an “unconscionable position,” explained Arts and Sciences Associate Dean John Carnes. Statewide limits on next year's full enrollment are also on the drawing board in Merida. Armed with a budget designed to handle a 1.3 percent increase in enrollment this fall, school officials were surprised by an increase of 8.7 percent. Although most of the pressure has come from the Florida slate -legislature, a move to cut back student enrollment is also supported by the faculty. Florida Stat; University faculty have complained that their workload has increased 20 percent in the last three years, with “possibly disaslerous affects on the students." according to one professor. Illinois The Urbana campus of the University of Illinois has decided to eliminate spring enrollment in an effort to reduce enrollment by 1000 students within two years.

Monday, 24 November 1975 - Publu it y department Info service a source for off campus media University Information Services is the division of University I'uhlic Relations that serves as a news source for the off-campus medias. Located in the basement of Hayes Hall, it keeps national, as well as local publications informed about State University at Buffalo activities and events. Newsworthy items are usually communicated to the outside media by means of daily news releases, according to Information Service news editor Ken Service. Service said that “nearly 100 percent of the information receives a positive response from the recipients. He attributed this to Service's record of credibility. “We function as a sort of filter of news for the outside." Service commented. “Kvery aspect of any given news item is treated objectively." Multi-faceted Besides newspapers, the Information Service sjnds material to magazines, trade journals, other Stale University campuses, and local television and radio stations. The written material is often accompanied by video tapes the Service produces itself. Hints, which are distributed to television stations outside of the Buffalo area, usually cover feature items, such as a faculty project or interviews with notable visitors to the campus. On the national level, the media determines the degree ot importance of each news item. Recent and outstanding developments in study and research are sent to national publications in the lorni ol news letters often with related photos. It is left to the discretion ol each publication whether or not to copy the story as is oi to do additional research. The Information Service staff, headed by James DeSantis, is for covering all news on campus.

The blind are no exception. The Seeing Eye in Morristown, New Jersey is an organization helping the blind free themselves from the need to depend on other people through the use of “man’s best friend,” the dog. Specially trained personnel first teach dogs how to guide a blind person and then show the blind masters how to use their new-found freedom of mobility. To date, more than 6,000 seeing eye dogs have given service to blind all over the country. The Seeing Eye, which is today the experienced dog guide school in the world, came into existence on January 29, 1929 as a result of the foresight and perseverance of Dorothy Harrison Eutis. After visiting a German training school and observing shepard dogs taught to guide blinded war veterans, Bust is wrote an article about the facility for the Saturday Evening Post. The article stirred a reaction in favor of establishing a similar training school in the United States. most Greater freedom “The dog is a liberating factor in life to some blind... not a luxury,” Eustic daimed. “It is not our idea to advocate the placing of dog guides with all the Mind far from it. The dog guide is suitable for the man who can use him in his daily life, who wants an aid in making himself a free economic unit... who wants a wider, freer - life.” The training center is the last step in a vast process of breeding and selection. Not only must the puppies exhibit excellent wind, limbs, eyesight and hearing, but their reactions to other dogs, cats, human beings and unexpected, startling noises are also important. / Many breeds are immediately discounted because of size. Bitches are irritating habits of males at lamp posts, trees, automobile tires or fire hydrants. Bitches are also less agressive and not as easily aroused by other dogs. It takes three months to train a Seeing Eye Dog. The first lessons arc in basic obedience. The dogs are trained to walk on the left and the trainers pay special attention to the “sit” position. Unlike other dogs, they must learn to draw their hind quarters to their front legs and not move until commanded to do so. The hated harness The introduction of the harness is another difficult test for the dog and trainers allow up to two weeks for the dog to adjust to this alien situation. Dogs are also taught to walk around obstacles, such as mail boxes or poles, leaving ample room for the master to pass. Dogs must be able to judge overhead obstacles and low blocking obstacles as well. Initial road drills are at first conducted on the training ground premises. Dogs learn to walk in the middle of the sidewalk, to leave enough room on either side in which the master can maneuver. The dog must cross the stree at right angles to avoid an accident in which the master falls over the dog. The dog lea ms how to disobey intelligently, how to say no to a command that might be dangerous to carry out. From time to time, the dog is tested under rigid conditions to mae sure she is aMe to take responsibility for a human life. The dog must be able to work at busy intersections and in heavy pedestrian and street traffic. Adjustment time Not until the dog passes all the tests, many of them with the trainer blindfolded, is the animal teamed up with a blind person. The master and dog go through three weeks of training during which time they are never apart from each other. The dog must learn to shift its loyalties from the trainer to the new master. Both the blind master and the dog need time to adjust to each other. The master is taught in classes of eight other people how to guide and direct his dog. Interpreting the signals that come back to him through the leather harness handle is the most important lesson to be learned. Praise for the dog is greatly encouraged both verbally or with a gentle pat. Correction for poor performance is also encouraged either verbally or with a jerk at the leash. All the dog asks is affection and appreciation and assurance that the master will let her know when she is not performing well. Individual needs of the students are dealt with on a personal basis. If necessary, additional training is given at home after the formal instruction has concluded. Modern kennels on the grounds of The Seeing Eye house 150 dogs, trained or in the process of being trained. Although most of the dogs are german shepards, other breeds such as labradors, golden retrievers and boxers are occasionally used. Controlled breeding To assure a sufficient supply of suitable dogs, a breeding farm for shepards is operated in Mendham, New Jersey under the direction of a licensed geneticist. When the puppies arc ten or 12 weeks old, they are farmed out to 4-H Club children to be raised in a home-like atmosphere until they reach training age. Regular veterinary services safeguard the health of the dog at all times. Seeing Eye instructors must serve an apprenticeship, study animal psychology, learn to understand human nature and the most importantly, recognize capabilities of blind people. The Seeing Eye develops all of its own instructors in an on-the-job training program. The sighted public has come to regard the seeing eye dog as a symbol of the independence blind people can achieve. The dogs ere actually considered a convenient and efficient means of mobility, keeping their masters active and useful. Blindness often is accompanied by fear and loneliness. The Seeing Eye training process is often a rebuilding of morale as well. Success stones According to a recent survey, almost 90 percent of Seeing Eye graduates arc employed or usefully occupied. More than 17 percent work as salesman, II percent are homemakers and 8 percent own businesses. Others have succeeded as teachers, stand operators and musicians. Some are going to college, while others are employed as social workers, lawyers, computer programmers, x-ray technicians,' switchboard operators, bakers and journalists. They report favorable reactions on the part of employers and fellow employees. One finds dogs guiding the blind in almost every sector of American society, from small towns to big cities, in factories, on farms and in offices. Not all of America’s 45,000 bind people want guide dogs, however. Some have other disabilities that prevent them from relying on dogs. A large number, although classified as legally blind, have sufficient sight to permit them to get around with little or no help at all. —I RENAULT Up to $L25 OFF on orders of chicken wings Now!

Federal scholarship money for medical students has already been phased out according to Williams. Loan programs for this year have no Congressional approval, Williams reported. His office is spending left over money from last year and collection money from students who are repaying their loan obligations.

In spite of this, only about nine million dollars is spent by Canadian advertisers on these same networks. Additionally, a recent article in the New York Times estimated that the Canadian audience is worth S20 million a year in revenue to the Buffalo stations. But according to Beuth, this figure is actually closer to $6 million. In any event, those funds would be virtually eliminated if the Canadian restriction is maintained. Signal interference Rather than help cable TV in Canada, Beuth feels that the regulation “will probably destroy it.” He predicted that the FCC would allow the Buffalo stations to jam their signals fairly soon.

Tu Gary Merril, co-coordinator of the committee, feels the state is trying to reach parity with private institutions.

Pannil questioned the value of-the cost increment in light of its future effects on those who must pay it. This could cut the desire of students to go into lower paying, more highly rewarding areas just because of the magnitude of their debt.

CETA, widely viewed by its critics as a stopgap measure to relieve unemployment without any long range goals, has been the center of controversy several times in city politicking. Peace center Earlier this year, Buffalo faced withdrawal of its revenue sharing funds due to widely reported instances of nepotism in hiring. The threat was temporarily abated when CETA was reorganized and placed under the direct responsibility of Human Resources Commissioner Robert Penn. The workers in question were subsequently fired. More recently, CETA came under fire when a Democratic candidate for Councilman-at-Large, Anthony Masiello, was accused of using city workers making a dog survey on the city's West Side to distribute his campaign literature.

The membership meeting urged that the $50 million Air force project be scrapped, in favor of preserving and extending social services and job programs. Not only is the B-l bomber unnecessary for defense purposes, a Peace Center booklet explains, but it is wasteful, ecologically dangerous, and inflationary. Further, it would perpetuate the arms race, provide “super profits to corporations of the military-industrial complex." and may be used against developing countries in future Vietnam-type wars, the booklet adds. to dclcat B-l is a bummer American taxpayers will foot the bill estimated between $50-90 billion over 30 years, or about $1000 a piece for the average taxpayer tor what Senator William Proxmire (D..

The undergraduate program, which has lost its "approved" status by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), is expected to be phased out completely by June 1977. However, spokespersons for the program say termination has no bearing on whether the program can be accredited for the remaining year and a half it remains in existence. Applying for accreditation status from the CSWE simply entails updating by December 15 a two volume self-study report which has already been written in anticipation of the procedure, and scheduling a site visit by CSWE evaluators in the near future. Yet sources say that Sherman Merle, Dean of the School of Social Work, does not want to seek accreditation because of alleged departmental shortcomings he feels will hurt the program's chances. Merle's position, as head of a program he has a responsibility to defend, is not only unreasonable but unfair to the students who were accepted with the understanding that it was approved and pending accredidation. Additionally, arguments of "shoddy field placement" and a lack of full time faculty have been refuted by undergraduates who believe the program meets CSWE No one of us applauds the maldistribution of physicians in this country or the limited number of available spaces in first-year medical classes. Yet, the New York State Regents’ proposal to alleviate the doctor shortage by increasing tuition at state medical schools in effect accuses medical students of complicity in the perpetuation of social inequities which we ourselves condemn. Indeed, “accusation” does not fully convey the scope of the Regents’ action. Indicted by virtue of our professional bent, we are convicted and fined not for past or present crimes, but in light of what we will become. Because the 150 percent tuition increase jeopardizes all our efforts, we naturally fear for ourselves. But we also are concerned that attempts to improve physician distribution and ultimately patient care will be a which plan seriously undermined by the foundation of physician compromises training. The regents’, speculating on our future incomes, claim the certainty of a physician’s wealth justifies enlarging a student’s financial burden. Should we reply that if health care is reorganized at the national level, doctor’s income will be markedly reduced and strictly regulated? Obviously, both arguments beg the question since each transforms hypothesis into foregone conclusion, and thus avoids careful consideration of the costs and role of medical education. A more realistic understanding of medical that approximately 70 training recognizes percent of medical students at this University qualify for tuition assistance. Indeed, nearly 40 percent of the medical student body receives full tuition scholarships. The need for financial support, then, is very real. And yet, no one has identified the source from which new loans will originate.

For some, therefore, “public education” will be rendered meaningless by acts of those state agencies whose rolt ostensibly is to maintain the education and welfare of state residents. For others, a personal debt exceeding $15,000 will make lucrative subspecialities not merely inviting, but virtually essential. We ask whether medical service, defined by interest rates rather than by patient and community needs, will overcome the glaring shortcomings which now trouble all of us. As future physicians, the responsibility for altering inadequate health care delivery will rest to a large extent on our shoulders. But at this stage in our training, that responsibility can only exist as a guide to future performance. To twist this moral obligation into a financial millstone wholly distorts the purpose of medical education by replacing academic and clinical competence with personal wealth as a criterion for future medical practice. In short, neither the reality of medical student financial need nor the goal of conscientious patient care warrants a tuition increase, and we therefore declare our firm opposition to a proposal which threatens the substance of our work and the heart of our for New York standards for accreditation, and that accreditation is The following “Letter to the Hditor” appeared recently in an Omaha, Nebraska, daily newspaper: essential to future careers and educational opportunities.

There is no excuse, therefore, for its administrators, whether out of apathy or sheer laziness, to select not not pursue accreditation status. The money involved, a maximum of $1000, is negligible considering the amount of money it could cost students for an extra year of graduate school and one less year of working. Accreditation will only serve the best interests of the students. The School of Social Work has that fundamental obligation to consider, assistance when its overall contribution to medical schools will decline under the Regents’ proposal? Can we rest assured that the state will secure federal funds when the trend at the national level has been to reduce direct medical student support? In fact, no guarantee exists that monies derived from tuition increases will be returned to medical schools to finance improvements and expansion of student loans. how to do things if you were ever to get around to doing them.

The Spectrum Monday, 24 November 1975 . �DAMNS SUREST Who's screwing whom? by Richard Korman To the Editor. While the University awaits the final terms of the settlement for continuing the Record Coop, several points are worth considering. Although the Student Association (SA) Executive Committee conveyed an atmosphere of victory following Friday evening’s last minute agreement with President Robert Ketter, the issue of the Record Coop is far from settled and the terms which will be part of any compromise with the University administration are so far only partly known. The agreement to temporarily suspend the Coop for two weeks was made in a closed-door session between Ketter and SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde. Why Lalonde was chosen from among the SA Executive Committee is not known. All that is known is that one student was arbitrarily empowered to negotiate a compromise over the fate of the Record Coop. A second thing worth noting is SA’s official disapproval of the rally that was scheduled in Haas Lounge for last Friday at noon, but which actually took place about an hour later, outside. In an interview shortly after the temporary agreement was announced, Lalonde offered some unsolicited criticism of editorials which appeared in The Spectrum the previous week. The editorials were deeply critical of Ketter, his administration and on Friday, called for the resignation of Vice President Edward Doty. Lalonde indicated his disgust with the short but lively rally which transpired that afternoon, saying it could have been “a disaster,” and equating it with the vandalism against Cavages in the days previous. Typical was the response of one member of the Executive Committee who declared, “We won because we weren’t radical.” Sentiments like these are incredibly naive. The Record Coop has been the SA Record Coop for several years already (the statement hammered out by Ketter and Lalonde restates this fact), and an argument can be made that SA itself was negligent in not seeing that the original terms for the operation of the Coop were not followed scrupulously, by either the SA Treasurer or the Coop staff. Certainly the Executive Committee was aware that Cavages had been threatening a formal complaint for years now, and had been the impetus behind the Record Coop’s moving last year from premises on the first floor to the basement room it now occupies. Instead, SA has consistently portrayed the Record Coop “crisis” as something which began last week. The letter from Lalonde which appeared in Friday’s issue of The Spectrum was disturbing for the facts which it conveniently omitted and for its ugly, almost childish tone. Lalonde objected to last Wednesday’s editorial, which stated that since the signing of the temporary agreement two weeks ago, the University administration has not made any mention of the Record Coop. Lalonde says that Arthur Lalonde’s letter of November 21 indicates clearly the low regard that the Student Association has for its constituency, and its clearly elitist attitudes. Art, students are not children who need to be kept in the dark. We demand the right to an open, honest government which should need no closed door sessions to restrict the flow of information. Why, simply because no one asked, should the information not be made public? Anyway, someone did ask repeatedly, me, and received little or no information when asked if I could help. Secondly, I do not trust Dr. Ketter or any of his cronies. They have lied before, they are probably lying now, and they will lie to us in the future. It is naive to believe that they (the administration) are suddenly going to change and give us the rights that are undeniably ours. Thirdly, why are you so superior that instead of coming up one floor, two flights of stairs, approximately 25 steps, yourself, you send Dave Rothenberg up with your prepared press release. Fourth, SA complains about The Spectrum incessantly. I am not going to get involved in that. But to give rise to a slow down of information to this “rag” as you call it, is to do more irreparable harm than can be imagined. If the only information that will be henceforth available will be SA press releases, okayed by all of you, I for one will not touch a single part of any. And lastly, the false impressions do not come from The Spectrum. Why didn’t you publicize how much SA screwed up on the Women’s Studies situation? And how about SASU? And why bullshit about New York City? Who have you spoken to who panics about default, SASU? Or does this all come from inside your heads. This letter is not directed to one person in particular, except for a few noted places. This is to all of you power hungry freaks who get off on seeing your names in print. Some of you were my friends, hopefully some of you still are. But I, for one, am totally disgusted with your self-righteousness and holier-than-thou outlook. We must get together, we cannot be fragmented by this pettiness. Who is more important, your egos, or the students of this school????? Steven Milligram Correction In Friday’s issue of The Spectrum, it was incorrectly reported in the title of an article that Ramon Tirado of the University of Puerto Rico would speak today. Tirado appeared in the Norton Conference Theater last Monday night at the invitation of PODER, the Puerto Rican student organization. except mb i pmv hp C HUPRetC- 60 I CH€AT &fiO<r AMt? Z 6096AH ampth A L v the reason we have not heard from the administration is because they are waiting for the completion of proposals by SA, and, if The Spectrum had simply asked SA what it was doing, it would have found that SA was indeed developing “systems” to continue the Coop. Except for two things. With SA patting itself on the back in celebration of the temporary agreement, one might reasonably expect that when the Executive Committee did finally come up with a plan, they would quickly inform The Spectrum and the student body. But this was not done. The second explanation for The Spectrum's “lapse” in reporting was that in protest of the editorial which appeared the following Wednesday, a member of the Executive Committee told an editor of the paper that The Spectrum might be receiving news from SA “late” from now on. Withholding information as a means of manipulating the press is something the University administration has also threatened from time to time. There is a special revulsion when it comes from students. And the reason it was done was because at a timeSA officials were expecting effusive praise, The Spectrum only acknowledged their “competence,” (which was generous) and instead praised the outcry from the student body. Because they weren’t lauded, SA chose to retaliate. It should be noted that it has been difficult to obtain statements from the Executive Committee throughout the Record Coop controversy. Lalonde’s criticism of The Spectrum editorials apparently means that he does not question the administration’s conduct of regarding the Record Coop, that he does not feel Mr. Doty should resign, and that rallies are not the way to solve things. Indeed, Lalonde has taken the unsavory role of apologist for the administration. In some instances, rallies may not be the best way to broach a political crisis. But there was nothing wrong with the rally that took place behind Norton Hall two weeks ago; the people who spoke covered topics which SA would never touch publicly, and was well received by the small group which listened. But to Lalonde, movements among people have no meaning, except for rallies by SA advertised with mandatory fee money. Lalonde believes the Record Coop should be covered only in terms of what government accomplishes in the private offices of Norton and Hayes Halls, and not through what happens among students. Lalondes’ calling The Spectrum a “bankrupt, worn out rag” could have touched off a fratracidal war among students. One wonders what his motives were. And one must also be amazed at the arrogance of the Executive Vice President of the SA who was elected by a percentage of the undergraduates small enough to make reasonable people believe that it may not truly be a representative student government.

Which implies, of course, that there is a reason for nobody having done anything about that trailer-squashed car. A reasonable reason, that is. I can think of anxiety provoking reasons all by myself such as I am imagining the whole thing, nothing like that can sit there for more than a week without being touched if it were real, could it?

Outside of that intrusion of reality, however, there is another anxious tint on by Steese the horizon. j hate to be the one to point this out to you, but the last weekend before beginning of the “HOLIDAY SEASON” has just slipped by you. It is no longer permissible to just get quietly and depressedly drunk on a weekend, now feeling bad will get you treated as the churl you are for intruding reality into the land of turkey and tinsel. Oh, the holidays! The tinkle of the cash register bell, the clang clang of cashiers breaking open new rolls of change, the annual effort to prove to everybody that you love them!

Everytime 1 think 1 can get a collar on that silly cynicism, Ford does something else and it goes into another tantrum. I am so naive it is hard to believe it.

And everytime I have to answer the question of why I won’t learn that honor don’t get nowhere near the notes of l/lO ll'v AtlfH Ll/lU Lf * Threat to freedom To the Editor. This letter is written to protest the recent actions of the so-called United States Labor Party against several members of the faculty of this University, and in particular those actions directed at a member of the Philosophy Department. Dr. Kurtz has been the continued target of this self-proclaimed leftist political group; their tactics ranging from the dissemination of slanderous misinformation concerning Kurtz’s political and ethical position to the repeated disruptions of his classes to threats upon his life and upon those of his Paul Kurtz, family. I cannot oppose the right of this group to hold and articulate whatever political opinions they may choose, however irrational and untrue they may be. Regardless of the fact that, after analysis of their confusin and contradictory ideologies and their tactics leaning toward terrorism, they can only be characterized as borderline psychotics or as a thinly disguised band of reactionaries, their right to freedom of thought and speech still holds. This is also not the place to discuss the implications of the threats of violence leveled at Dr. Kurtz: this remains a matter to be resolved in the courts. The issue with which I am concerned is the repeated disruption of Dr. Kurtz’s classes by individuals who are neither students in those classes, nor even members of the University community. While it is the right of the members of this party to proclaim whatever political stance they deem significant, it is also the right of students at this University to attend their classes without fear of disruption, and the right of faculty members to discuss any subject they may choose with those classes without a similar fear. The students and faculty here are quick to oppose any hint of censorship of professors espousing controversial political or philosophical view by the administration. Are they prepared to tolerate this new and more dangerous kind of censorship coming from without? I urge all students and faculty to join me in opposition to the present actions of the U.S. Labor Party; actions which can be viewed only as a threat to freedom of thought and the interchange of differing ideologies, basic components of any viable atmosphere of open academic their confusion and contradictory ideologies and their tactics leaning inquiry.

My specific immediate cause has something to do with the pancake house on Sheridan Drive that already has “Happy Season’s 75,” up on their sign. A whole month of this no worse yet! I forgot about New Years, which is another week away more! I think I may throw up on my Christmas card list. How can this be avoided; how is it possible to sleep until January third, when the last of the hangovers and bowl game leftovers will be gone! But let us go on to a more cheerful note. How much more of a cheerful note may be a problem which depends on you and your Thanksgiving plans. My experience leads me to believe that Thanksgiving is a particularly hyped holiday in terms of family closeness. If you are one of those rare folks who actually experiences all the love and caring they need and want from their family group, you can be excused for the rest of the column, and I give you fair warning that what follows is the annual - - “how-to-make-the-most-of-it” speech. The version of reality I sell has to do with expectations. This means that as I see it, holidays at which you are supposed to feel something particular are likely to be very difficult situations. I don't really care which holiday it is, or what feeling Trying to produce a set of feelings to order has to be very, very difficult. 1 don’t know what the average experience is. Obviously people who live in Buffalo, and whose parents also live in the area, probably see more of their families than those of us with either scattered family groups or the whole outfit in another city. So let us take the case A. Student, who spent at least some time at home during the summer. Obviously that last experience, which for many is perhaps three months ago, has a lot to do what the expectations are in going back. And whatever happened three months ago, hopefully both you and they have changed at least a little. But for many of us, the relationship has to be one based on history, virtually by definition, since there has been no actual relationship over the last three months. Which means you have to use your own expectation to be social. All right, class, how many of you can remember how one or more members of your family take their coffee or tea? With or without sugar? With or without cream? What about your close circle of friends? How do they take it? That data has to be an expectation, since all you can know is how they used to take it. Anyway, the lower people seem to be able to keep their hopes, the more room you may be able to give the other people in a situation. If a party doesn’t have to be terrific, just enjoyable, then it may turn out to be good; but my history with parties which set out to be extravaganzas, is that you better be very, very careful. So the more you can let all those weird people you are planning to eat turkey with be themselves and like them, warts and all. without needing more than an occasional hug from them, the better off you will all probably be tat well and enjoy.

(ISA /RS Committee �Military strength will not discourage a mar The idea that military strength tends to deter war is being challenged by researches at this University Ravoll Naroll, professor of Anthropology and co-author ot Military Deference in History examined twenty historical periods and randomly selected one decade out of each period. The researches asked three questions about the leading nation of each decade; Was that nation trying to avoid war? Did that nation have a stronger and belter army and navy than its leading rival? For how many months of the ten years were those two nations at war? Naroll expected there would be a correlation between positive answers to the first two questions and the detlerence ot war. However, the researchers found that superior military strength does not seem to have any effect on the prevention of war. , Nuclear Age Naroll believes that his study is relevant to the modern nuclear age. In a recent article in The New York Times. Naroll wrote that despite its tremendous military strength, the United States has been involved in wars in eleven of the last thirty years. \;,roll cited studies by Professor J. David Singer and associates at ihe (.'diversity of Michigan which demonstrate that "balance of power” foreign policy fails to deter war and is simply a justification for increased military spending and the maintenance ol nuclear stockpiles. Part of the problem in effectively preventing war and controlling the arms race is the federal government's failure to finance arms control research, he said. Naroll maintains that the Ford administration race is more interested in studies that support the growth of the arms control. support arms rather than in those that tend to lie also points out that President Ford's 1976 budget would give 1,1000 the amount arms control and disarmament research less than research and 1.7 for detense spent on defense research (2 billion research). million for arms control Supports detente According to Naroll. a realistic defense would be sufficient to protect us and anything beyond that level is wasteful and irrational. In his article Naroll wrote: “The $104 billion Defense Budget that President Ford wants for fiscal 1070 may buy us a $104 billion triumph in the next world war . I doubt if it can buy us a nickel's worth of peace.” As a practical step. Naroll advised people to oppose excessive military spending. He also supports political and military detente between the United States and the Soviet Union as a step in the direction of arms control and possibly bilateral disarmament. Textbook prices Fallen victim to inflation by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum Standing in the aisles of college (CPS) bookstores across the country are hundreds of students groaning and sighing as they peek cautiously at the price on the inside cover of the assigned textbook. Their heads swim as they silently tally up the bill for this semester’s required books. Next semester will be worse if book prices continue to rise as they have steadily for the past 10 years. Prices for publishing materials have fallen victim to inflation and the financially-troubled textbook industry is passing those increases on to its captive audience students. The textbook is still the primary teaching tool in the majority of undergraduate classes. And college students at most school stores pay exactly what the publishers have suggested. Trying to undercut the competing bookstores in the area would result in a serious loss to the bookstore since the profit margin on textbooks is so low, according to the manager of a University of Minnesota bookstore. “We make far less than one percent profit after all our expenses are taken out," claimed Jim Simons, manager of the bookstore at Oregon College of Education. Simons also said that many bookstores are not getting enough to cover the cost of the books, shipping and handling. To cover the costs, some college bookstores are charging students for the freight cost as well as the actual cost of the textbooks. - Rising prices According to Simons, textbook prices have not risen as drastically this year as they have in the past few years. “However, hard-cover $7.95 and$ H.95 books might be a think of the past,” he said. Actually, textbook prices rose } percent more than the consumer index in 1974. Publishers blamed the rising prices on increasing costs of paper, ink, binding material, labor, loans and distribution. Today the average price of a hard-cover book is about SI3.25, a college librarian estimated. Publishers are also spending more money producing textbooks because they are trying to recruit more big-name professors to write the newest texts. Then it takes a busy professor four to six years to produce it. By the time the student is buying the book, it is already dated and a new edition is in the works. At most bookstores, an outdated edition is worth noting. Books which have been used for one quarter or semester and have not been reordered by another professor for the next are worth almost nothing. The manager of the University bookstore at Stephen Austin University in Texas pointed out that a book which retailed for $9.75 would be worth 25 cents to the wholesaler if the book were no longer needed for a class at that school. If a book is going to be used again for the next semester, students may be able to buy the textbook used, usually at >7 '/percent of its original price. But with the heavier use of paperback texts, used books are becoming more scarce. Some book dealers believe paperbacks are the student skvorst buy. “There’s very little price difference between paperback and hardback books in certain instances,” one said. “Hardback books are also more durable than paperback books and attain a higher resale value." Not all bookstores seem to be struggling with low prices and high costs, however. The “non-profit’ bookstore at Western Washington State College has accumulated a surplus of S297.000 in the past few years. The bookstore gives discounts on many items but continues to show a profit. Many bookstores make their biggest profits on non-book items such as pocket calculators, clothing and supplies. At St. Louis University, two students have set up an alternative to the used book business on campus. The women have been organizing a book coop which will accept used books from students and sell them for the amount the owner is asking. The owner will receive all the money collected for the sale of the books and will get the books back if they are not sold.

Thousands of workers were laid off while stockholders received their dividend checks. Today, Boeing has huge contracts for the B-l. A 1971 General Accounting Office study showed that corporate profits on equity investment for all manufacturing averages 18 percent 20 percent, while profits for military production average as much as 56 percent. In civilian production, many of the costs are paid by the corporation, while in military production, they are covered by the - taxpayer. Another major criticism of the B-l is the anticipated destruction of the stratosphere and resultant deterioration of human health. Able to fly at high altitudes at twice the speed of sound, the B-l would leave a trail of pollutants that could destroy five percent of the ozone, which screens out cancer-causing ultra-violet rays. Nuclear accidents? Additionally, the B-l, like other bombers, will carry nuclear weapons housing plutonium. John Gofman, professor of Medical Physics at the University of California said, “One pound of plutonium 239 represents the potential few some nine billion human lung cancer any plutonium dispersed into the biosphere presents a major doses carcinogenic hazard for more than the next thousand human ... generation." While the Air Force assures us that accidents are unlikely, history tells us differently. In 1968, 33 major accidents involving nuclear weapons were recorded. Peace Center members also maintain that military production does not create as many jobs as civilian production. They point to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics which show that the same amount of money spent in the civilian sector could create up to 60 percent more jobs than if it is spent on military production.

This gave the Lakers just the advantage they needed. With a power play opportunity, and the face-off deep in the Buffalo zone, Oswego Coach Herb Hammond pulled Palusco, to give the Lakers a two man advantage.

He felt the game was not a true test of the players abilities, since the quality of their opponents was so low. Even so, Richardson was up off the bench yelling at his players throughout the game. “I learned one thing tonight,” he observed. “Everytime they threw the ball they got the fly pattern [i.e., fast break]. We didn’t get downcourt fast enough. Somebody had to come back if we miss a shot.” Richardson also thought that Buffalo had to work harder on their offense, despite their 147 points and 66 percent shooting. “We have to work on our patterns,” he said. “There are three or four patterns we have to learn better.” Adjusting to system The reason the Bulls have yet to perfect their offense is because only five of them played for the Bulls varsity last year. Richardson noted that those five (Gary Domzalski, Sam Pellom, Mike Jones, Larry Jones and Otis Home) plus Cooper were not having any trouble catching on to his offensive system. Cooper pointed out that the team he played on last year was very similar to the Bulls. “We would try to run and score,” he noted. “If we had the fast break, we would take it.

N Y. 10019 Ai In State Class of 18 points. 1 The game’s leading rebounder, junior Vernell Washington, also thought he wouldn’t have much trouble adjusting to the Bulls offense, noting that he played on a running team last year at St. John’s Junior College in Kansas. Larry Jones, who was with the Bulls last year, had a different sort of adjustment to make. Jones was mostly a forward last year, but seemed to have no trouble moving the to backcourt against Barbados. “1 made my fist shot, and then 1 had more confidence,” Jones said. He went on to become the games high scorer, with 23 points, hitting on all of his eleven shots. The only upsetting thing was the absence of Wayne Boyd from the Bulls line-up. Boyd has a great deal of ability in fact, Richardson has said Boyd can play guard, forward or center but was upset when Richardson did not naiqe him as a starter. Boyd did not play at all during the game, and Richardson indicated he would not play until next semester, if then. Otis Horne sprained his left ankle during the game, but later said that it was not serious and that he probably would be ready when the Bulls open their season on November 29 at Indiana State. — Sports Quiz Here are the answers to last week’s questions I .

Play was lackluster on our part. We didn’t work for three periods.” The game was important to both clubs, as this was an interdivisional battle, only the second one for Buffalo. It was a chance for the Bulls to improve their record following Wednesday’s 8-4 loss at St. Lawrence, and they did to some extent. The Bulls are now-I—4-1 overall, 1—0—1 with Division II teams. Apparently the only real problem the Bulls had was their physical coordination, because Wright felt that there was generally nothing wrong with the team’s mental attitude, Playoff bound? “They [the skaters] understand the importance of games with Division II teams. We can still make the playoffs. I do expect more of an effort in terms of hard work. Our mental attitude is not off to the point where we’ll stop working hard." The Bulls get their next chance at interdivisional competition when they play at Brockport this Tuesday night. If they do work hard, they should be successful in their attempt for their second victory, The Bulls return home to the Tonawanda Sports Center for a pair of games against Ohio State on December 1 and 2, in what should prove to be two good matches. /t&nu .

Vol. 26, No. 39 State University of New York at Buffalo Friday, 21 November 1975 Social work Program to be phased out by Jenny Cheng Contributing Editor The Undergraduate School of Social Work h<*re has lost its “approved” status by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) and is scheduled to be terminated by June 1977. The social work program was an approved program until June 1975, when CSWE annulled that at all American universities. The CSWE expected social work schools with approved status to eventually seek accredidation status. However, this University is not seeking accredidation for the status program here. “This is largely due to the fact that Albany, for terminate our financial reasons, has decided undergraduate program,” explained Gerald Miller, 1 Undergraduate Coordinator of the School of Social Work. “Because the State University at Buffalo undergraduate program is to be eliminated, the administration questions whether it is wise to pursue accredidation,” he added. Protests Students of the undergraduate program protested this decision vehemently. “We were accepted into this program with the understanding that the program was approved and pending accredidation. Now. we are told that the program is neither approved nor seeking accredidation,” one student said bitterly. The students believe the lack of an approved or accredited status will endanger their chances of entering and receiving advanced standing at graduate schools. Social work majors have reported that the graduate overwhelming majority of accredited schools grant advanced standing on the basis of the undergraduate program. “In this way, we feel that accredidation will serve our best interest,” another student contended. Before a school of social work can be considered for accredidation, its facul y and curriculum must The meet standards established by the CSWE. current State University at Buffalo undergraduate program fulfills these standards completely,” some students insist. “Anyone who has seen a copy of the CSWE official guidelines, can see that our courses are identical to those prescribed by the CSWE,” one social work major said. High quality Undergraduate Coordinator Gerald Miller agrees that the educational curriculum and faculty of this University’s School of Social Work are both of high quality. “I see no reason why the program should not be accredited, if the administration decides to pursue accredidation,” Miller stated. “The question is, whether it is wise to go through with such a costly process when the accredited status may not be necessary,” he added. v Miller said he felt students from this program still be accepted into graduate schools regardless of the accredidation status. “There are students who graduated from our old program who would have received advanced standing at graduate schools,” he said. Arthur Butler, Provost of the Social Sciences, feels that undergraduate students have many “legitimate” requests when they express their feelings on the importance of accredidation. “Personally, I would like to see the program accredited, and I feel that the quality of the program has markedly improved throughout the years of its existence,” Butler commented. Alternate methods Butler added that if the School of Social Work decided not to go through with the accredidation process, an alternate method of endorsement should be devised, which would serve the same purpose. A letter of recommendation, for example, describing the undergraduate curriculum in detail could accompany a student’s application to graduate school or social work agencies. Butler also mentioned that an explanation of the school’s unique situation concerning the termination of the program should be included. The Provost said he regretted the fact that the undergraduate school had to be phased out. “Social work is a service we would like to continue at the undergraduate level, but due to the severe budget problems, it is impossible to keep." Butler went on to explain that Albany decide to phase the program out because there are several other accredited undergraduate social work programs in Western New York Buffalo State College and D’Youville. for - example. Firm belief Sherman Merle, Dean of the School of Social Work, was not available to comment, but social work students claim he fell the program would not be accredited after it was reviewed. A lack of full time faculty, and “haphazard field placements” are cited as departmental shortcomings. Undergraduate social work students firmly believe the program meets CSWE standards for accredidation, and that accredidation is essential to future careers and educational opportunities. by Howard Greenblatt Campus Editor The Norton Hall Browsing Library and its Music Room has been forced to reduce weekly operating hours by one third in order to decrease salary expenditures. A SUNY-wide budget freeze imposed by the Board of Trustees earlier this yea] necessitated the change, said Jim Gruber, Director of Norton Hall. Gruber informed the Browsing Library last week that salary lines would have to be cut this year by about $ 1000 as part of a general Temporary services cutback of $16,500 for this campus. Salaries for the eight student employees of the Browsing Library and Music Room would have amounted to about! f 1,000, explained Rosemary Gellman, Area Coordinator of the Browsing Library. So far, the library has paid out about $7900 of that sum. Gruber expressed disappointment that the Browsing Library had to shorten its hours, saying, “it’s a high priority that meets definite student needs, but again, it can’t be immune to the times.” Shorter hours Gruber could not predict what would happen to the Browsing Library next year, but he did not discount the possibility of further reductions in its operating hours, especially if more cuts are announced. In order to save the $ 1000, the Browsing Library and Music Room cut weekly hours from 60 to 40, Gellman said. The library used to be open from 9 a.m.-9 p.m. Monday through Thursday, from 10 a.m.-6 p.m. on Friday, and from 2 p.m.—6 p.m. on Sundays. As of this week, it will only be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays. All weekend hours were cut. A survey conducted last week by the Browsing Library indicates that student response to this service is considerable, Gellman said. Because the Browsing Library and Music Room will not be open evenings, Millard Fillmore College (MFC) students will not be able to use these facilities. Some MFC students have already complained about the cutback, she said. Gruber maintains, however, that the Browsing Library’s reduced hours are “still meeting the bulk of student needs.” —continued SCATE receives mixed reviews by Michael C. Cray Spectrum Staff Writer Course and Teacher Evaluations in the Norton Center Lounge'for 25 mixed reviews from students this week. copies were grabbed up Monday, but substantially Tuesday. On Wednesday morning, however, 100 copies were sold within a single hour. Most of the criticism of the booklet concerned departments and courses which were not included, difficulty in interpreting information, and the fact that no summary of the raw scores was included. “I think it’s baloney. It didn’t help me at all and 1 couldn’t find the teacher I was looking for,” said one first-year student who was interviewed in an informal survey. She advised psychology majors not to buy the book because she felt it was a waste of money. The SCATE book is “too computerized. I wish it was more literary, or personal, rather than having so many figures,” she continued. “I gave my copy away, I just didn’t want to bother looking at more figures. I’m seeing enough now just going through the Class Schedule. I think the figures are really distracting,” she added. The Student (SCATE), on sale cents a copy, won Nine hundred sales dropped off Found helpful Another student, however, said he found the book very helpful. “I think it’s well worth the money. It’s a great idea and 1 think they did a good job He added that it would have been helpful if the number of students enrolled in the course and more student response was included. A senior majoring in biology found the book a little hard to read and thought better instructions should have been included. He also complained that none of the courses he was taking were evaluated. “I feel like 1 wasted 25 cents. It would be worth it if they had all the courses in it. I think it’s a good evaluation, 1 thought the questions were good, but 1 wish more departments had been included,” he added. A junior thought it was “definitely worth the money,” and planned to use it in preparing his schedule. “The only thing I’m disappointed with is all the zero’s, other than that I’m happy. 1 think the comments are especially useful.” He also thought it would be good to indude the number of students taking the course.

In order to prevent any future cuts, Maiore swore that the City Hall unions will play a major role in the next city-wide elections in 1977, and suggested the possibility of the unions running their own candidate for mayor.

Attacking what he sees as an attempt to make the “little people” pay for the city’s financial crisis, Maiore called for the dismissal ol high-salaried, appointed administrators, rather than the firing of civil service people. He said the city was out to get the “faceless City Hall employees." who could then be replaced by federally-paid Comprehensive Training and Employment Act (CETA) workers. City officials are currently considering plans to lay off as many as 200 employees who work on capital spending, since many activities in that area have been curtailed. The union has offered to forego any raise in the first year of the contract currently being negotiated, in return for a job security clause. However, James W. Burns, Commissioner of Administration and Finance, feels that such a clause would be “ridiculous” in view of the city’s uncertain financial straits. & Please come to the S.A. office to fill out these forms as soon as possible. ; Proposed bill might start over-all strike Cy 3urcvhvtrtJuA*, THE HOMESEAD 6Atcey uj d%ryy*t / , 4 t*<M H*vik n/4* UB> /tfto*- Urfu �WSC: another review just a ‘fronting action’ by Mike McGuire Contributing Editor Since 1973, College (WSC) Women’s Studies has undergone three major reviews by University and has been committees, included in two reviews of the American Studies Department which cross-lists a number WSC courses. The College is again due for a review by the Colleges Chartering Committee at the end of the Spring 1976 semester under the terms of a conditional charter approved by President Robert Ketter last January. The old Stern Prospectus on the collegiate system called for a review of the Colleges by a committee of the Faculty Senate chaired by Jonathan Reichert of In the Physics Department. addition, it mandated an external from review using professors outside the University. Outstanding program The internal review produced a report highly favorable to WSC. A subcommittee made up of three faculty members here called their program “outstanding,” and “a high level of academic standard and intellectual challenge in spite of the difficulties endemic to a WSC operation.” low-budget operated on approximately the same budget then as this year. The external review brought in from other professors five institutions and issued a report on the Colleges as a whole. The Collegiate system, they found, deserved to be maintained and despite a few strengthened, shortcomings. Their report often mentioned a trend in the Colleges as a whole and then cited particular Colleges as indicative of that trend. Each time Women’s Studies was mentioned, the trend it illustrated was found to be positive. According the of WSC the to WSC evaluators expressed a desire to become involved with the program, and the other later advocated the establishment of such a program at his own University. to one assigned spokesperson, One of a handful At the same time Faculty Senate accepted the reports of the two evaluating teams and passed the Reichert Prospectus in Spring of two different reviews of the American Studies Department touched indirectly on WSC. cross-lists American Studies several WSC courses, and several faculty members from the Department also teach in WSC. The of the Graduate report Division praised WSC highly, calling it one of a handful of outstanding programs in the field the country. The Division of in Undergraduate Education’s (DUE) of Studies, American review completed the same semester, also praised WSC’s program and urged its continuation. Chartering Colleges The Committee examined WSC in Fall 1974, and eventually proposed a five-year conditional charter, after finding the program to be academically Questions of men from certain courses and about the allegedly ambiguous use of the word “woman” in the WSC charter. Ketter’s decision reduced the length of the charter to three years and mandated a review after eighteen months. He also told WSC to specify when “woman” was used generically and when it was used specifically in the charter, and also to submit any all women’s to courses Curriculum by Paul Buttino Spectrum Staff Writer DUE Committee for approval. Ultamatum During 1975, the Spring Curriculum Committee unanimously approved four of the courses, and voted 4-2 in favor of the Women’s Auto Mechanics Course. During summer, this past Executive Vice President Albert Somit told the College to drop any all women’s courses from its course listings, and threatened WSC with closure if it did not comply. Since then, the threat of the closing has passed, but whether the all question of women’s classes may be offered next semester is still undecided. Kelter has not made any definite statement on the matter, although he is scheduled to meet with representatives of the College to discuss the issue. The Faculty Senate two weeks a resolution approved ago permitting the use of exclusion in certain classes, providing the exclusion is based on sound educational reasons and is not “invidious.” A WSC spokeswoman called the continual reviews a “fronting action,” so the administration can avoid responsibility for harassing the Colleges She compared the to presidential reviews which can be commissions, ignored if the President doesn’t like their findings. “After they submitted to chartering, the Colleges were supposed to gel more money and be free of harassment because they would have been found valid.” she said. “We still have little and plenty of money harassment. Another review will just bring us more harassment without any more respectability and certainly no more money." • THE NICKELODEON • • ANTIQUE THEATRE • 9 Cameo Javits spoke briefly, explaining he was on his way to a special meeting with President Ford and other New York Stale delegates concerning the President’s policy for aid to NYC. A revised outlook by the President on the federal aid issue was expected to be revealed at the meeting. “Two of the greatest things New York ever did were to free tuition and open admissions,” Javits said. One reason the city is hurting, he told the crowd, is because of the “many humane and 1 wonderful things New York has done in many fields.” Javits said students and education are the last thing that anyone would want to give up, because “you represent our future." In closing, Javits reminded the ralliers, "My heart Is with you, you all know that, I’ve said it on a thousand battlefields.” Other speakers included Congressman Augustus California, from Los Angeles, Hawkins Congresswoman Shirley Chilsom of New York and Congresswoman Bella Abzug, also from New York. Lunch at Ford’s Senator Hubert Humphrey was also scheduled to appear, but was delayed at the White House meeting with Ford. Each speaker gave similar interest.” Robert Kirkpatrick, President of the Student Association of the State University of New York (SASU), told the crowd, a few weeks back, Ford came out with a bankruptsy plan for New York State, timed just before elections to tell the rest of the country they should “let New York die,” and “we don’t care, it’s not going to affect us.” Country road, W. Va. Kirkpatrick pointed to several communities already being affected by the sinking municiple bond market. “New York is the reason they can’t build roads in West Virginia right now,” Kirkpatrick said, and “New York is the reason that they can’t build schools in Illinois and Colorado right now.” Banks are leary of lending cities money for community projects, thus following the same pattern set by NYC bankers. Chilsom was applauded loudly for, as one SASU representative put it, “feeling it’s just as important to be with us as to be with President Ford.” Chisolm said what really appalled her and other members of Congress was that Mayor Beame and Governor Carey came to Washington a few days ago and were told what action had to be taken by them to get any federal assurance for loans or aid to NYC. The “action” apparently was a state sales tax increase, a wage freeze, and pension fund contributions which Carey proposed early this week. Chilsom said much of the proposed tax increases or budget cuts “are not to the benefit of the masses of the citizens of New York. Javits assured the students their lobbying will make an effect on some members of Congress. Of the 1300 people who turned out to represent the SUNY system, not more than 15 people from this University went to Washington and only one faculty member from the entire SUNY system attended the rally.

Tuesday to rally in support of financial aid to New York City and make legislators aware of the devastating effects default would have on education in New York State. Lobbyists knocked on the doors of virtually every member of Congress in an effort to gain support for the financially troubled city. The SUNY student lobbying effort will have a definite effect on financial aid legislation in Congress, Senator Jacob Javits (D., N Y.) said at the rally. Unfortunately, many of the other legislators were in session ironing out last minute proposals before the upcoming congressional recess and could not be reached by the lobbyists. The rally converged on the Capitol steps amidst chants of, “Default is your fault,” with an accusing finger pointed in the direction of the Capitol building, and, “We want a J-O-B so we can E-A-T.” pro-student New York City speeches with a few piercing jabs at the Ford administration which won loud verbal approval among the ralliers. “This country is being badly mismanaged and unless you understand the significance of this, what you are doing today will be wasted,” Hawkins said.

Sub Board this year allocated about $4000 to the Browsing Library to cover materials and maintenance expenses. A spokesperson from Sub Board said the Board discussed the possibility of contributing to the Library’s salary expenditures to compensate for the state cutbacks, but decided to “wait, and determine the long-range ramifications of the budget freeze.” Sub Board views some of the budget cuts in student services as an attempt by the state to shift the financial burden to the students. The Board is therefore “sceptical of the precedent that would be set” by picking up the tab for Browsing Library salaries, the spokesman said. Student Association (SA) President Michele Smith shares Sub Board’s wariness. More problems The reduction in operating hours will cause other problems for the Browsing Library, Gellman said. To expand its service base, the Library had planned to hold periodic film festivals, art exhibitions and other activities, many of which could only be held at night, she explained. Currently the Browsing Library and Music Room have over 4000 paper-bound books, 155 magazine subscriptions, seven national and local newspapers, and 3500 record albums, Gellman said. While the budget freeze will not directly affect the supply of materials, the overall quality of service is bound to suffer. - Page four . The Spectrum .

The Spectrum . Page five �Guest Opinion Edk.°rial 9 a.m. by George Boger 9 p.m. Graduate Student Association The perennial hatchet that has been sweeping around campus, slashing budgets left and right, has hit yet another sector of campus life. The Norton Hall Browsing Library and Music Rooms, forced to decrease salary expenditures by one third, has had to reduce weekly operating hours considerably. The move is another manifestation of a trend that seems to be afflicting the University with increasing save money by cutting back popular student regularity services. The new shortened Browsing Library hours, 9 a.m.—5 p.m. on weekdays and no hours at all on weekends, will affect Millard Fillmore College (night school) students the hardest. As it is, these people see so little return on their mandatory student fee dollars that eliminating one widely-used service is just not fair. The evening is also a time when most students can find a spare hour or two to relax after the trials of a normally hectic day. The student union will no longer afford them a place to go to read a magazine or newspaper or listen to music. Finally, employees of the Browsing Library, who counted on their salaries as a source of income, will feel the pinch if they are compelled to work fewer hours. With the financial crisis in Albany these days, it is highly improbable that money will be restored to State Temporary Services lines. Students therefore have no alternative but to look to Sub Board, their student service organization, to help bail out the Browsing Library. Sub Board, which reportedly has a sizeable amount of money put away for contingencies, currently allocates money to cover materials and maintenance expenses. A financial boost from Sub Board would enable the Browsing Library and Music Room to pay its employees so that at least the nighttime hours may be reinstated, allowing the facility to serve the needs of all students at this University. Night school students especially deserve this consideration as they contribute a large sum of money to Sub Board each year for services they cannot always take advantage of. The Browsing Library and Music Room are services that were geared specifically for students. But they will do no one any good if they are shut up behind locked doors at hours when students appreciate them the most. — SCATE The Student Association (SA) Student Course and Teacher Evaluation (SCATE) booklet which was placed on sale this week deserves both the praise and criticism offered by students who will use it to plan their spring semester schedules. It goes without saying that the tireless efforts of Project Coordinator Gene loli and SA Director of Academic Affairs Dave Shapiro deserve much credit. Plagued throughout by a lack of volunteers, it is doubtful there would have even been a SCATE book without them. The book is helpful in fairly obvious ways; it gives students a chance to estimate how well taught a class will be. In an institution where promotions and tenure depend mostly on faculty publications, the SCATE book is a a welcome re-emphasis on the often neglected skills of classroom instruction. It may be remembered that the current SA Executive Committee's campaign platform last spring was based on promises of publishing a SCATE book. This they have done. But perhaps the most refreshing aspect of SCATE is the willingness of loli and Shapiro to face up to its failures in preparation for a better book next year. A truly comprehensive SCATE booklet is much more useful than one which omits several large departments. Those departments which left packages of SCATE questionnaires on their office floors are doing a tremendous disservice to students, and leads us to believe that departmental cooperation should be compelled in some way. Another problem students encountered was interpreting the number of responses without knowing how many students were in each class, and without the aid of any other summarized information. Unsummarized listings force the reader to mentally estimate the percentage of favorable or unfavorable responses. We suggest that next year, sufficient funds be allocated to the SCATE project to justify summary of raw scores. All in all, the SCATE book is a necessary first step in a positive direction. Page six . The Spectrum . Friday, 21, November 1975 It is now obvious to most everyone that the economic crisis is taking its toll on SUNY. Public higher education in New York State is under attack. But everywhere the response to the crisis there has been has been to “bite the bullet” only scattered resistance to the attack. It seems that no one can find a way out of the present crisis. The only suggestions that have come from the leading bodies in the state are deepening the crisis of public higher education and exacerbating the general economic crisis. They say raise taxes, raise tuition, put a ceiling on enrollment, cutback needed programs, layoff faculty and staff. We say that these, moves will not help the problem, but are the problems themselves. The New York State governing bodies have not addressed the real needs of the people in this State. The Student Association of the State University (SASU) is the statewide student association of SUNY. For the past year it has taken a tailing position on the crisis, originally calling Carey’s cutback budget for SUNY “fair.” Now the SASU leadership wants to buy “mini-bonds” for Big MAC. A group of students from various campuses across the state have worked diligently to transform the passive stance of SASU so that it actively fights for the real needs of SUNY students and the people of New York State. The name of the group is Students to Defend SUNY. In October, at the last Delegate Assembly meeting of SASU in Albany, the Students to Defend SUNY presented its program to the SASU delegates, who represented most of the colleges and universities in SUNY. They adopted the program by an overwhelming vote. This was a significant breakthrough, but this advance needs to be consolidated by actively implementing the program. The leadership of SASU must be responsive to our needs. The program adopted by the delegates was the following: Fight for free mil ion and open admissions. These two demands are inseparable. They are urgent. We cannot ask for anything less than quality education open to everyone. Talk of the erosion of quality because of free tuition and open admissions is reactionary. Given the present economic crisis and overall stratification in our society, this is the only way to ensure democratic access to SUNY. Compensatory funding measures must be assured to cover the costs. 2. Take a dear leadership position in the Jighl to end racism Racism is the most insidious — - / weapon used against all the people in the United and New York is no exception. SASU States must take the lead ideologically in educating SUNY students to the severe consequence of racism on the quality of public higher education, on the quality of social and cultural life, and on the jobs situation. SASU must fight to fill administrative positions, faculty and staff position, and to increase the student enrollment with persons of specially oppressed national peoples. A democratic society is at stake. 3. Take the lead in the struggle for women's rights. Young women must be assured of full equality and opportunity to participate in the functions of modern society. At the same time their special needs must be recognized. SASU must fight for special measures to be taken to guarantee women’s access to SUNY at all levels. as students, as workers, as administrators. 4. Fight for full employment and equal opportunity. We want jobs for everyone at union wages now. That means for students part-time work on and off campus, summer work, and jobs after graduation. 5. Fight the cutbacks, demand more funding, and develop the curriculum to service the needs of the public. 6. Struggle for the full Constitutional rights of students. Continue to press for full student participation in University governance at all levels. Students must continually struggle for their legal rights. As the economic crisis takes on a political character, there will be more student SASU must the protect involvement. Constitutional and legal rights of youth as they express their needs to the public and to the legislature. 7. Maintain SUNY as an international and cultural center. We must maintain SUNY as an international center for the pursuit of world peace. In support of the policy of detente, SASU should press SUNY to develop student and faculty exchange programs with countries of different social systems. There is a world-wide student movement that is doing much to advance world peace SASU must become a part, 9/ this.; - - - movement. We must continue to resist the deterioration of quality public higher education. In fact we must struggle to restore the cutbacks and demand that SUNY be further developed for the benefit of the public. The fighlback is beginning to come together but there is much yet to be done. The consequences of neglecting to resist the erosion of quality education in SUNY are vast and undermine the principle of an educated public in a democratic society. New name alley To the Editor. The repair project to improve the heating in Norton Union’s first floor has started. Our publicwill be inconvenienced at times because doorways must be closed.

Of course, we hope the closings will be brief, the good weather will continue, and the heater installation will be a great improvement! Robert W. Henderson Associate Director Norton Hall default To the Editor I would like to comment on the concern of many State University at Buffalo students over the financial affairs of N.Y.C. I would like them to consider the following points: 1. New York City’s budget has tripled in the last 10 years, and its leaders have refused to limit their spendings. We are in a recession today and N.Y.C. has continued in it’s wasteful ways. If you have ever been to N.Y.C. just look at the construction going on: buildings are torn down (not restored), roads are torn up (not repaved), new shopping plazas are built; the city is one big, unlimited construction site. 2. If the federal government gives them assistance, what will it accomplish? It will just allow them to continue their wasteful ways until once again more aid will be needed to avert a default. It will continue to be one big cycle, going round and round until something mjuor is done. 3. Last year the Buffalo School Systems were in total collapse, yet the lederal danger of a government didn’t come to their aid with millions of dollars. What they had to do was limit themselves and cut back on some vital areas. Also I would like to note, that this situation did not concern many University students, probably because they don't live in Buffalo, so they didn’t give a damn. Yet now that N.Y.C. is in trouble, Buffalo is supposed to give a damn and rush to its aid. 4. Newsweek magazine lists Buffalo as one ol the ten cities to watch in the next year, because it could very well follow the footsteps of N.Y.C. Will University students be demanding the federal government come to the aid of Buffalo as they are demanding the aid to N.Y.C.? 5. If the federal government aids N.Y.C. it must assume this responsibility and must aid thousands ol other cities in financial trouble (like Buffalo) throughout the country. 6. Finally, I would like to know why I must pay taxes to support N.Y.C. when my home-town (Buffalo) is in just as bad shape. Let those who use' N.Y.C. support it. Start taxing the millions who work there and commute daily in and out of the city yet pay no taxes to support it. If N.Y.C. must continue in its wasteful, unlimited spendings, and those who use its resources do not wish to support it / say let it default! For all of the state will benefit, by the removal of its biggest burden.

Hero agrees to free Pseudolus if the slave can get him the girl he loves. Her name is Philia and she is a courtesan of the House of Marcus Lycus, Despite her association with this "house" she is a virgin, but she has been sold to a brutal Roman captain. The entire play revolves around Pseudolus' efforts to bring Hero and Philia together. He relies on his cunning and wits to outmaneuver the captain and his men, Hero's parents (Senex and Domina), the head slave of the house (Hysterium) and Marcus Lycus, Teamwork His antics succeed through his own efforts and assistance of Hysterium and Erronius, the owner of the neighboring house. He has been searching for 20 years for his two children, who were stolen in infancy by pirates Pseudolus' ploys includes using sleeping potions and aphrodisiacs, posing as Marcus Lycus, using his master's house to entertain the captain and his men, hiding Philia, and making Hysterium pose as Philia to fake the woman's death. Despite Pseudolus' best efforts, however, the tide of events seems to be slowly turning against him. He's just trying to juggle too many people and stories at once. Erronius, though, finally saves tha day, but not before the most uproarious slapstick chase that I have ever seen tried on stage is pulled oft (and beautifully, at that). The production succeeded by means of an ingenious combination of acting, improvising on the play, directing and just plain old comic timing. Resistance. Such courage was necessary for her to have at all. At 15, convinced of her intellectual inferiority and of her inability to find truth, she almost committed suicide. But she saved herself by reasoning that anyone, howiever lowly, can reach and know the truth, the result was a surpassing faith in her views, and in herself as a woman and a person. In 1943, she died a death that chillingly blended her concern with both the existence and the soul of humanity. Exiled by the War and hospitalized by tuberculosis, she refused to eat more than the official ration allowed in her occupied country, and starved a martyr of body, soul and ideals. Big and brassy Woman as hero necessary talent was not present, determination and the drive that comes only from hard, dedicated work made up the difference.

Aside from the fascination and admiration she feels for Simone, she sought also to present her as a heroic model for women everywhere.

The Spectrum Friday, 21 November 1975 . The music was well presented by the orchestra. The only problem here was the overabundance of brass as compared to strings. The few violins were almost impossible to hear over the blare of the trumpets and trombones. As a result of this imbalance, it was often hard to hear the actors. The loud, heavy brass sound was the only fault in the orchestra's performance. The actors themselves were fairly good. Pseudolus (played by Dan Tursi) is a marvelous part for any actor (Zero Mostel was excellent in this role) and Dan really performed well. His timing on comic lines and his general performance was well worth the 25 cents admission charge I don't mean to slight the other actors however.

They did only their own songs and the emphasis was upon their musical accomplishments of the previous years. Last Saturday at the Niagara Falls Convention Center the spotlight shifted. There were performances by many of the individuals who had affected or had been affected by Dylan's long, meandering process of musical growth. Dylan still tended to hold center stage, his very presence forcing the other musicians to defer to him. For a majority of the concert, however, Dylan was not even on stage, while the others maintained, on their own, the musical spirit which Dylan keynoted. immediately touched when Bob This spirit was Neuwirth came on stage with Guam, the backup band fo; the Revue, and said, "Welcome to our living room." This Informality pervaded the show as musician after musician woke up for the strange afternoon starting time to come out and play a few songs. Spider Ronson Guam eased the crowd into the stream of things with some quick, light country numbers. Aside from Neuwirth the group contained T-Bone Walker on rhythm guitar, an excellent pedal-steel/dobro/fiddle player whose name escapes me and Mick Ronson on lead guitar who climaxed this early set with a song that showcased his guitar virtuosity Beginning the overwhelming series of walk-ons with Ronee Blakely, discovered through her appearance in the film Nashville. She has a powerful, wide ranging voice which she accompanied on piano to sing a ballad off of her recently released album. Out came Joni Mitchell to do a duet on the next Blakely song and then to do two songs of her own, alone on the stage with just an acoustic guitar. My Joni Mitchell fan friends tell me the songs were new, but they followed in the rhythmic and melodic modes of her previous work. Time factors pushed her off at this point, the standing ovation crowd grumbling as to why Joni couldn't do just one or two more songs. Mr. D. delivers But it was time for Ramblin' Jack Elliot to do his three songs. Elliot does some good guitar strumming and even better yodeling vocals. Clearly, his presence and style have influenced Dylan's own all-encompassing musical approach. Then, Dylan finally ambled on and he quickly proved that all those old songs are still part of him. In a recent interview, he stated, "I can relate, on some level, with every song I wrote." "When I Paint My Masterpiece" and "It Ain't Me Babe" were both done differently than the originals but still exquisitely. The beat, the phrasing fit so perfectly that this version could just as easily have been the first. Out came his harmonica, delivering the searing. drawn out, not quite on key chords, melodies. He also performed a number of new songs which promise to make his newly recorded album just as much a classic as the others Dylan, hunched over the mike with his acoustic, or jumping from musician to musician with his electric, revived songs that covered every period: 'The Times They are a Changin'," "Just Like a Woman," "I Dreamed I Saw St. Augustine," "Simple Twist of Fate." Joan Baez came out for about seven songs after the intermission including a lovely a capella of "Swing Low Sweet Chariot" and Roger McGuinn for "Chestnut Mare" and 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down" which drew a Baez-induced 6,000 part harmony. Dylan as heavyweight During such a mind boggling afternoon, it's very hard to pinpoint the climax. "Like a Rolling Stone" and "This Land is Your Land," the final two numbers, wore definitely contenders. For myself, however, it was the powerful singing of Dylan's new single "Hurricane." After nearly 15 years of writing, this song proves that Dylan is still number one. In it, he uses the jailing of Rubin Carter as the story line for a moving, cutting song which displays an enormous level of vitality and inventiveness. It's a song which helps you remember that even though Bruce Springsteen may be called "another Dylan," Dylan was and is the best, and he can still be just as sarcastic, enigmatic and rocking as ever.

The Kinks first came to prominence in the wake of the early Beatles' invasion with a string of early hits including "All Day and All of the Night," "Well-Respected Man," and "Sunny Afternoon." After a few years without a hit, they again achieved prominence with the rock classic "Lola" off the Lola vs. the Powermen album, and followed up that album with the popular Muswell Hillbillies Ip. Since that time, the group, led by are coming to Loew's As part of their appearance, the Kinks will perform their latest theatrical presentation School Boys in Disguise. Special guests at the concert will be Steve Harley and Cockney Rebel. Tickets are on sale now at the Norton Hall Ticket Office for -$3 and $3.50 for students with ID and $4 and $4,50 for non students and night of performance.

On your right, witness a white aristocracy, decadent and effete, having lost the ability to perform for themselves the necessary functions of living. And, on your right, their black labor force; seemingly downtrodden and mired in menial tasks, but in reality the force that allows society to function at all. So goes the common theme of Douglas Turner Ward's one-act plays Happy Ending and Day of Absence, presented last weekend by the State University at Buffalo Theatre Department under the direction of Lorna Hill. If that theme seems too grim for you, be assured tftat its presentation is as light and frothy as an ice cream soda well, almost Ward doesn't have the poetic outrage of Imimu Barada, or the relentless, brutal honesty Charles Gordone shows in No Place To Be Somebody (probably the best play about the black experience ever written). He's more like a black George S. Kaufman, producing plays truthful and topical enough for black audiences, yet not swamping the white playgoer in waves of oppressive dogma. His plays are enjoyable, not pontifical and they do have a bit of bite. from — Redistribution of wealth Happy Ending operates on an intimate, almost situation—comedy scale, centering on two black domestics trying to deal with the impending loss of their jobs. What upsets them isn't the jobs per se, but the food, clothing, plane tickets and triple overtime they lift from their fat-cat employers, who are so glutted with same, the missing quantities are never even noticed. Take that away and there's trouble. Day of Absence has a looser structure and covers a broader area. In a series of short scenes, it chronicles the chaos resulting in a Souther town where the entire black population mysteriously vanishes for one day: cars are unchauffeured, floors unwashed, shoes unshined, meals uncooked All of the white citizens are played by blacks in whiteface, most of whom appeared to have the time of their lives parodying the personae of the Dixie gentry Unexplained 'Absence' Both plays suffer from a lack of strong climactic resolution In Ending, the couples whose divorce precipitates the job crisis patches up their differences (offstage) with a conspicuous lack of explanation or the leasoning Similarly, Absence never really tells us what blacks on the fateful day, or offers more than the slightest implication of the lasting impact of the event, or the lack of it. Absence's satire is also labored and unfunny at times. The cast performed capably, if not quite at the Theatre partment's generally high level of competence. Especially fine were ary Joseph, as the slyer and more sorrowful of Happy Ending s mestics, and Fiank Hill, skillfully and energetically playing the latoi Claghorn mayor in Day of Absence. -Bill Maraschiello SHANES Tavern -dL 1147 Main at TURQUOISE RINGS $4” LIQUID SILVER CHOKERS nuggets Jp Reg. $20 NOW with turquoise Reg. $20 NOW $6” Umv. of Buffalo Nights! with Bud on Tap 25c for 12 ozs.

For example: "A good hippie had no last name' but "it wasn't entirely my fault I wasn't a better hippie.

The potential for some sort of excitement here is incredible, but Vonnegut simply a culture usually defined by its diametrical opposition to that of one's parents and almost literally waking up one morning the child of that counterculture's biggest literary hero. And Mark, of course, knows his father better.

Royal Flash traces a H capricious young man s journey through the divided German states which an extremely frustrated Bismarck (Reed) is trying to unite. It almost seems as though director Richard Lester were trying to disappoint his audience. The acting is .ambitious but the film comes off as a tease rather than a farce. Whether Lester was obliquely aiming for a spoof on TV super-heroes, or on unreal chronicles of past eras, or on futuristic films (characteristically those of McDowell, in which his cohorts reappear as the plot unfolds) is unclear to me. The opening scene focuses on Captain Harry Flashman (McDowell), a distinguished war hero, addressing the graduating class of Rugby in the late nineteenth century. Royal Flash is reminiscent of McDowell's earlier films, but not significantly.

These were the brats who created heavy metal music, lived by its rules, loved by its emotionless exactitude, and almost caused its demise. Fortunately, the metal menace only entered into the black maw of acceptability, giving birth to such entities as the Dictators, BTO; Rush, UFO. As it did so, unfortunately, these bands were mere copies of the original item and never really succeeded.

Sabotage rounds out with "The Write," which is nothing more than a Black Sabbath cocktail piece with snotty Ozzie vocals, lommi eye-eating guitar paths, and the rest of the band's inherent schizophrenic panache, gnawing away at an ever-present desire for nihilistic release. Like this leather jacketed herptophiliac (sitting next to me the last time Black Sabbath played live) said: ", . , but the Sabbath, man, they make your eyes bleed . .

With a sedulity seldom seen, or heard of these days, the boys from Birmingham lay down a viscid set of fiercely blocked power chords tethered together with a technocratic sensuality, whose shamelessness goes beyond the mere definition of heavy metal music and on into the nexus of vitreiousness. No longer content with the / M' W /:/ wages of pig iron, the Sabbath has become masters of glass. This is music which creates such a delicate A., O molecular balance between spatiotemporal realities that at any moemnt it can shatter all that it surrounds.

Teenage horny Not practitioners of arcane religio-destructo lyricism, Kiss has gone back to the simple, primal, dancing message of rock 'n stun music. Most of their songs concern themselves with the basics; getting mind-fuzzed, lady-lashed and just generally confused about absolutely EVERYTHING!!! Yet, their claim to glass isn't their lyrical conceptuality, •it's their randomization of greasy-treble references through the gauche Gibson guitar sleaze of Paul Stanley on sky-slidin' stun, and Gene (da Tongue) Simmons on Hammer-film bass.

This band speaks to concupiscent yawny song on the two records is "Parasite,” more because it contains a drum solo (and drum solos just aren't functional in the current rock idiom) than its a bad song.

Kinda slipping in between all these heavies is an uncomplicated yet effective group called Montrose. Headed by Ronnie Montrose, former lead guitarist for the Edgar Winter Group (he's the hit, "Frankenstein") these guys are borderline glass cases, if only for the stunning sexuality of Ronnie Montrose's sense of playing lead on blitzkrieg geetarzanity. The first Montrose Ip actually qualifies as the strongest with such hackle-raising songs as "Rock the Nation" and "Rock Candy." "Paper Money," the group’s second effort, teeth out. You'd think by now they'd shot the wad, two hits outta two, not bad. But more is yet to come. "No You Don't" a Chinn/Chap lyric, is so righteously nasty that it's sickening, very SM . and before side one's over they've even thrown in a torrid edition of Joey Dee and the Starliters "Peppermint Twist" which is guaranteed to get 'em dancin' at any and all discos no matter how socially sticky they pretend to be. Jailhouse gin Guess what? What? Side two's even better, title track becoming a musical with the enravishment the likes of which hasn't been heard since the Vanilla Fudge did readings from the Bible.

On this song, Connolly croonomorphically mats down your pubic hair with sheer sensual tremulousness, just like the old days. The other successful entry is a note-fer-note rendition of the Who's "My Generation," complete with tremelo and incoherent bass runs. In case you're a mite confused, the Sweet did release Desolation Boulevard in the States on Capitol records and what it is, is nothing more than a slipshod compilation of the previously mentioned Ips. My god, how could they have left "Heartbreak Today"??? The only significant differences, between the American Ip and the slash! ng of British releases are that the British records have better, more sonorous, production quality and that the U.S. rlease contains "Ballroom Blitz" which wasn't on either of the other fish 'n chippers.

Page thirteen �'Outer Space Technically mediocre, factually unsubstantiated by Andrew Warnick Spectrum Arts Staff The Outer Space Connection appears to have been shot when the director and cameraman were out to lunch. The technical quality of this so called "documentary" is extremely mediocre, the type one expects to see in an educational film shown at a high school, but never for $2.50 a ticket at a movie theatre. The film had an excessively grainy texture, and for the first seven minutes, there was an annoying scratch that ran vertically on the film. The closeup shots were especially terrible, often giving the audience an intimate view of someone's ear or nose. "Horribly amateurish" would be an accurate description of the photography. Another foul ingredient in this rotten stew was the music score. In attempting to imitate those of 2001 or The Andromeda Strain, its electronic beeps and bongs only gave the audience a universal headache. Surf's up and it's beach blanket bingo time once kids The sand, sea and sun of Southern California makes its way to cold, cold Buffalo via the Beach Boys Relive all those glorious fantasies you never had with your very own favorite California guy girl. Bring your surfboard and sun tan oil to the again The film content was inordinately misleading because of its abundant use of extrinsic information. Controversial and unsubstantiated theory was sprinked with unrelated facts and then presented as unquestionable scientific law. An example is the use of the Kirlian "aura photography" technique to show that there is electrical energy in all living things and then trying to claim that Egyptian mummies have a degree of immortality because the Kirlian photo detects some energy in them. The film finalizes this segment by stating "matter of factly" that it was the "visitors from outer space" who gave this information about "immortality" to the Egyptians. Another example of this fancy footwork occurred when narrator Rod Serling said the "visitors" actually improved mankind through genetic manipulation. But the only evidence used to support the theory are some mysterious sculptures of the Mayans which are supposed to be a blueprint for the various types of men these "visitors" created. The film had interviews with several experts who vaguely stated that UFO's are in the realm of possibility, but nothing as conclusive as the film would lead one to believe. So long, Frank Lloyd Wright Connection mostly reiterates Erich von Daniken's theories that interstellar travelers built or helped create the civilizations of the Mayans, the Incans and the Egyptians. Too many questions, though, remain unanswered. If these "visitors" were more advanced then than we are now, why did they build their cities out of large stones rather superior materials such as steel or glass? The film could be termed a complete rehash with very few original ideas presented. As a documentary, its methods are reminiscent of political propaganda films and poorly done ones at that. As a story, it is rather boring and inconsistent. However sympathetic you may be to von Daniken's thesis. The Outer Space Connection reduces it to a bottom-drawer space opera.

Switching to piano, Andersen quieted down a bit with the title cuts from his two latest albums, Blue River and Be True To You. "Wind and Sand," also from the Blue River album, was dedicated to .

He left the stage with a bow to a standing ovation, which threatened not to abate until he returned for an encore. Acting appropriately, Andersen returned for "The Guitar Man," a story of a family of musicians with a deaf mother and blind guitar-playing father. He went solo for a number he announced as "A Poem." He closed his set with Tom Waits' "01' 55," which is fast becoming a classic. Roth, who was recruited from John Prine three months ago, and Brown, who has been Eric s long-time road bass player, are a perfect back up for the quiet, deep touch that is a trademark of Andersen's music. On the folk scene for about ten years, Andersen has obviously survived the so-called "test of time." With another album to be released in February, and isolated dates through the winter, he promises to keep our desire for the mellow satiated for a long time to come. Headlining was Leo Koltke, an amazing guitarist who is developing a rather large cult following. An excellent bottle-necker, Kottke played his usual set of alternated vocals and instrumentals. In spite of his great talent, I can't seem to keep my mind from wandering during his performance. He lacks the spark to keep an audience's attention during his set. Some people should only be recording artists. —Barbara Komansky the art of group singing Opening with "Glasshouse" from the Song For You album, the Temps had the crowd moving from, the onset Then into the classic "Masterpiece," and it was apparent that the Temps were in top form 'The vocals were unusually powerful with each member showing off his ample vocal abilities. The Temps concentrated heavily on material from their platinum album, Song For You, released earlier this year. They, enlightened the crowd with superior versions of "Memories," "Firefly," "Shakey Ground" and of course the title cut "A Song For You." sound One of the concert's highlights came during "A Song For You” when Dennis Edwards reached an incredibly high note completely startling the crowd as well as his fellow Temptations who openly applauded his efforts after the number. Material from the just released album House Party was kept to a minimum with only a couple of tunes from the new disc covered. The most appreciated segment came when a long medley of their hits, dating from 1964 through 1974, was showcased. Encompassing such Motown unforgettables as "My Girl,” "Ain't Too Proud to Beg,” Cloud Nine,” "Ball of Confusion, and ''Papa Was A Rollin' Stone," the medley delighted fans who may have had misgivings or doubts as to how the current group, with only two original members, would fare on these oldies. They sang with the same intensity and enthusiasm they did ten years ago, never giving the audience any impression they were tired of their material or were "going through the motions." Tempting ' Throughout all their personnel changes, they've always managed to "sound” in tact.

The audience was very into the Temptations and the group seemed to sense it by responding with extended versions of many songs and putting out tons of energy with their precision-perfect, intricate choreography. After playing for almost an hour and a half the group launched into the up tempo dance number “Happy People." They brought the crowd "off the ground" and kept them in a euphoric state for almost ten minutes with "Happy People," and upon finishing the number quickly exited the stage. Called back for an encore, they did a continuation of "Happy People." For all those who showed up Friday night, the Temptations more than lived up to their reputation. They enhanced it. After more than a dozen active years of performing and recording, the Temptations remain on top. In fact, judging by Friday's performance and this year's platinum album, the Temptations of 1975 are better than they've been in their long, illustrious career.

Raices, a group of seven, prove their versatility on their latest release of the same name. The roads that Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock and Miles Davis opened to aspiring young jazz and soul artists have been admirably explored by this group. Opening side one is "Lenguas," whose English translation is languages or tongues. Reminiscent of Hancock's "Watermelon Man," the voice is used in monosyllables as a whistling type of instrument. Percussion, featuring such little-used instruments as clay drums, berimbau, kalimba and quika carries each piece Keyboardman along and is an Amaury Lopez accent. exquisite uses his Fender Bill Withers, Making Music (Columbia Records) that prevented him from recording. Now on considered a major talent and influence just a few years ago, is regretfully, washed up. Nothing here comes near the standards of his two hits, "Lean On Me" and "Ain't No Sunshine." The urgency and despair so forceful in his early vocals are gone. The new voice is bland, monotoned and emotionless, comparable to a male Helen fleddy. At times Withers sounds like a horse in heat. He should either stop "singing" or take some voice lessons. It's sad how Bill Withers has regressed to the Rory Gallagher, Against the Opening side one is "Let Me In," with a hummable opening riff along the lines of Joe Walsh's "Welcome to the Club,'' or Clapton's "Motherless Children." Gallagher's fluid guitar takes the band up and down, using crescendo and sudden stops as endings to frenzied jams that are an earmark of his work, "Ain't Too Good" tones the breakneck pace down a bit, and is reminiscent of Bad Company's mellower tunes, such as "Ready For Love." Marin plays a very tasty opening piano, with the other Mungo Jerry The Pye History of Britsh Music (Pye) Greatest hits collections are usually pointless. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young was a good example of this; They released only two and a half albums of original material and practically every song was widely known. Simon and Garfunkel was another every album they released was a greatest example hits collection in itself. Pye Records, an England-based label, has added to this epidemic with their History of British Pop Music. They devote albums to 60's British music, featuring artists such as Petula Clark and the Kinks. One group covered is Mungo Jerry, well-known for their single "In the Summertime" and not much else. What can you say about the kind of group that has a hit single and disappears? Almost nothing, as album sales would indicate. Half the time this band sounds like a low-call - Montara (Blue Note) Montara, the new album by Bobby Hutcherson, is quite simply put, one of intense beauty and mellowness. With its synthesis of various instruments, only slightly dominated by Hutcherson's interweaving xylophonic-progressions, each cut comes across as a mini-jazz masterpiece. On "La Malanga," which is the most blatantly Latin song on the album (though every song is Latin influenced), the combination of Latin percussion, flute and trumpet, layered over with the xylophone is more than enough to get the feet moving, the hands clapping and the brain thinking. Latin music, in itself, is one of profound feeling induced by the "La Malanga" combination of many instruments typifies an excellent example of what good Latin music is all about. The same can be said about "Vuyo." Here Hutcherson on xylophone and Ernie Watts on flute — Prodigal Sun the thought of him venturing into a studio again seems pathetic at worst, comical at best. The other aspects of this album are on par with the vocals. The melodies are about as diverse as the James Brown catalog, with each tune making use of practically the same musical progression. The songs differ about as much as Johnny Carson's monologues. Even the lyrics suffer. They're much too mundane and elementary, totally void of any qualitative substance. Withers' mother could have written better lyrics. How anyone with any amount of musical expertise can let an album like Making Music go through a pressing without realizing the usurpation of precious vinyl remains unaccountable If Withers considers this record a suitable replication of "making music," I wish to disagree violently with -Steven Brieff him, musicians taking their cues at the most advantageous Grain (Chrysalis) Rory Gallagher, a prominent British blues guitarist, has produced an album that is one of the few good rocking albums this reviewer has seen this semester. Ably assisted by Rod D'Ath, Lou Martin, and Gerry McAvoy on percussion, keyboards and bass, respectively, Gallagher has put together a set of songs that show one can employ catchy rhythms and licks that aren't, affected by the current disco blight. Bobby Hutcherson, for the wind instruments that carry the leads. There are only vocals on two cuts: "Parallax" and "After Sunrise." Sammy Figueroa's deep, rich voice is a perfect instrument in itself. The vocals augment the intensity of the instrumentals which blend and weave through each other. This type of Latin-jazz is rather far removed from Santana, Chick Corea or John McLaughlin and his cohorts. It's pure, and not really too distant from the type of framework that say, Tito Puente makes his music in. The musicians are very well versed in their own and each other's instruments. They are a band working together, not just a group of people who feel that they are entitled to a solo at a given time. "Raices" means roots, and these men have —Barbara Komansky surely gotten back to them. point where Making Music is Bill Withers' first album in years, having been entangled in a messy series of legal problems with his former label, Sussex Records, Columbia, the man who was Rhodes to the best advantage. The effect is simultaneously spacy and melodic; the perfect match of times. J'Souped Up Ford" is the kind of song that would undoubtedly get an audience up and dancing in the aisles. Gallagher has been able to avoid a trap that many hard rock bands fall into: Everything starts to sound alike. Rory provides something identifiable in each cut. "I Take What I Want" features piano and guitar stacked one on top of the other in the style that Duane Allman and Dickie Betts used to stack guitars. "All Around Man" has nasty, biting slide complemented by bluesy honky tonk piano in the instrumental track. The only possible complaint anyone could have is the fact that the lyrics and vocals are severely lacking. This, however, would be invalid because Gallagher prefers to be recognized as a musician. So be it he has achieved his wish Against the Gram Is a splendid example of class British rock and roll. Barbara Komansky J MISSIONHURST...

The songs employ about seven or eight chords, but unlike somebody such as John Prine, they provide no outstanding lyrics to compensate. This group had great potential to be an outstanding jug band, but they seemed intent on proving some kind of non-existent versatility The liner notes indicated that Mungo Jerry was was incredible smash but in Europe, an underexposed in the States, This album certainly won't encourage American sales one bit; it's an obvious conglomeration of nothing. The notes also claim that it's ". . . happy music, fresh, vibrant, foot-stomping music.” It sounds more like a description of proven groups like Poco, the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band, or Lovin' Spoonful than just another one-single disappearing act. Barbara Komansky play exceptionally (keep a sharp ear on Watts' flute it's simply amazing) as they both, playing nonstop, follow scales and patterns in a beautiful — mixture The last track that I'd like to mention is the title track, "Montara," which is one of two written by Hutcherson on the album ("Vuyo" being the other). "Montara" is a simple melodic piece which could conceivably be a theme song for a television show. Again Ernie Watts, without the showmanship this time and Bobby Hutcherson combine to form something that may be simple but is well written all the same. Jazz in all of its personifications has something more to offer than most musical forms. If you're into checking out something that could most definitely be considered jazz and yet has a beauty which makes it palatable to all tastes, then I suggest savoring Montara. —G.Maltz Friday, 21 November 1975 . The Spectrum . Page seventeen �An inside look at worldwide business: has “the responsibility to know”, The Business Roundtable is sponsoring a series of messages about the fundamental workings of our free enterprise system. Their “mini-course” appears monthly before the country’s largest reading audience in Reader’s Qigest. How the U.S. and foreign governments regulate the business we do abroad has a direct bearing on jobs and paychecks back home. When voters understand the basics of our economic system —and act on that understanding —government listens. Since every citizen ADVERTISEMENT Why Companies Do Business � Abroad � ATmericans arc hearing a lot these days about multi/ national corporations, X but for some reason we rarely hear what they mean to our economic growth and prosperity, or even what they are. A multi-national is a corporation that does a substantial amount of its business in other countries, either on its own or in partnership with host-country corporations. Multinationals, American and foreign, are everywhere. They mine bauxite in Australia, make sewing machines in Britain, sell insurance in Bangkok, operate banks in Iran There arc thousands of them, but generally the term is reserved for the larger, more successful and, so, more conspicuous companies. They also tend to be the corporations that pay the highest wages, and sell products for the lowest prices. In an earlier era, corporations often set up overseas operations for strictly economic reasons —lower transportation costs, for example, or a break on wages. Today, however, many companies find that they can’t enter, or remain in, a foreign market unless they build a factory or set up an office there for at least a p>art of their operations. Mighty General Electric, for example, was called in not long ago by the Brazilian government and told that supplying locomotives from its Erie, Pa., works to the growing Brazilian market was costing Brazil too many dollars and that it was also time some Brazilians worked on GE locomotives. GE ne / gotiated a compromise. Now, in an assembly plant in. Brazil, local workers put on outer psarts. the wheels and other The drive assembly and controls still come from Erie. Both sides got what they wanted: Brazil saves on dollars and gets factory jobs, while GE keeps the high wage, high technology part. If the company had not cooperated, says chairman R. H. Jones, “complete locomotives would now be made in Brazil in plants financed by a Jaoancsc or European company.” When companies establish foreign operations, it nearly always means a surge in the number of their U.S. employes. In 1950, Caterpillar Trac- Co. was struggling to fill its U.S. and foreign orders from two Ameri can plants with 25,000 employes. Today there are 12 overseas Caterpillar plants employing 27,000. But, mean while, the company has grown to 14 U.S. plants employing 62,000—of whom some 24,000 owe their jobs solely to foreign orders. A p«jmtsffTg“Toreign market can be lost irretrievably by not setting up a foreign factory at the right time. In 1964, Du Pont was exporting 34 million pounds of polyethylene to Europe, but decided not to build a plant there. Its European sales of polyethylene soon dropped to the vanishing point, while its foreign competitors moved in and built the market up to four billion pounds a year —“a growth,” Du Pont says, ‘‘that the U.S. economy and its workers did not share in.” Du Pont learned the lesson well. Today it has 44 principal foreign tor REPRINTED FROM THE NOVEMBER 1975 ISSUE OF READER S DIGEST Page eighteen . The Spectrum . Friday, 21 November 1975 Despite the extraordinary contribution of multi-national corporations to our standard of living, the clippers are out in Washington to shear their worldwide operations subsidiaries or affiliated companies employing nearly 32,000 people. Total 1974 sales outside the United States amounted to S2.17 billion, of which over $800 million were U.S. exports. As a result, at least 15,000 new jobs were created in the Unit ed States. These and numerous other examples underline the fact that multi-nationals are good for the U.S. economy, consumer and worker. A U.S. government study covering 300 of the major multi-nationals reveals that when these companies were rapidlv expanding employment abroad, they also raised their U.S. work force at a rate of 2.7 percent a year well above the average growth in American industry. At the same time, they averaged paying their U.S. workers substantially more per hour than U.S. companies without foreign operations. This is only part of what multinationals do lor us. They arc in the forefront of helping the nation compensate lor rising costs of basic raw materials we must import, particulars petroleum.

Americ.m companies operating abroad returned home royalties and foreign earnings of S’1.4 billion —three times the outflow of dollars lor new — foreign investment. All m all, without multi-nationals the extraordinary worldwide rise in living standards would have been slowed. As U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Daniel P. Moynihan has declared: “The multinational corporation, which combines modern management with liberal trade policies, is arguably the most creative international institution of the 20th century.” Indeed, those countries in Europe and Asia making the most progress arc the ones that have encouraged multi-nationals—theirs as well as ours. Despite this, the clippers are out to shear the U.S. multi-nationals of their foreign connections. # •At last count, some 3500 US. corporahad more than $125 billion worth of direct investments abroad. Foreign internationals had $70 billion —some $20 billion of it in the United Slates. tions A while back, the hue and cry was that multi-nationals “export American jobs.” When this proved unfounded, critics seized upon the issue of bribery of foreign officials by the multi-nationals. It is true that some U.S. corporations have been involved in payoffs abroad —usually to avoid confiscation or loss,of business to foreign competitors. This is certainly a practice contrary to good business ethics. But unethical practices by a few companies hardly justify punitive tax proposals now coming to the fore in Washington, which would all but put multinationals out of business. Currently, U.S. overseas businesses pay the full 48-pcrcent U.S. corporate income tax rate when they bring home their profits after paying all taxes in the countries where they operate. These taxes generally arc now as high as ours, and companies are allowed to offset them against the taxes on foreign, but not domestic, income that would otherwise be paid to the U.S. Treasury. This avoids double taxation. Foes of the multi-nationals would have them pav the foreign taxes and immediately give almost half of what was left of their earnings to the U.S. Treasury. This would mean an effective tax rate of almost 75 percent. Since no other country does this, our multi-nationals could not survive under the burden. The economic effect here and abroad of such a move is dismal to contemplate. The value of our vast foreign investments would be sharpIv reduced, and world trade un doubtedlv would suffer. As the recent g'oba! recession has reminded us, when business turns down, no man is an island. \Vc must keep in mind that multi-national corporations are nothing more than business organizations which make up tor the fact that raw materials, products, services, know-how and labor are very unevenly distributed over the globe.

It you were really so interested in why you haven’t heard anything about the Record Coop, why didn't you ask? If you had asked, then you would have discovered that the Student Association and the Coop are working right now, to set up systems that will insure against it ever closing down again. You would have discovered that the administration is not doing anything about the Coop because they are waiting for us to bring our systems over to them. And, whether you like it or not, we shall wait until we have a completed program. But you didn’t want to know, did you? It is so much easier to conjecture and rant and rave, than to to publish this way, but necessary to a bankrupt, worn-out rag. That is what The Spectrum has degenerated to when it used the entire front page for a one liner and writes editorials without taking the effort of one or two phone calls. And never forget who is responsible for this moral and ethical garbage: it is you, for you are responsible for all the garbage that is churned out; it is you whom students should be angry against for giving them false impressions. In the future, I suggest The Spectrum show its true colors: print on yellow paper. Arthur J. Lalonde, Jr. Executive Vice President Student Association Psychiatrists and schizophrenia diagnosis, which is an entirely circular argument that begs the question as soon as the question has been To the h.'Jitor In Monday’s cover story, “Can the Hospital Really Make the Sane Insane,” the writer mentions that Dr. Robert Spitzer accuses the Rosenhan study of being “pseudoscience presented as science," and that the study is "irrevclant to the question of whether psychiatric diagnoses are only in the minds of observers." 1 would like to ask Dr. Spitzer just exactly where he thinks "schizophrenia" is The traditional answer is that "schizophrenia” ism some people rather than others, be it their minds, bodies, or life-styles. The entity called "schizophrenia" that Spitzer is looking for comes out to be nothing more or less than the stale of his consciousness that led him to seek il in the first place. Since it is psychiatrists in particular who make the diagnosis of "schi/ophrenia." it appears that they suffer from ••schizophrenia" (whatever that is) at least as much as the people lo whom the attribution is made. Psychiatrists usually say that “schizophrenia” is present in a "patient" when he behaves in such a that way Yellow journalism "schizophrenia" raised. says that “in remission” is Furthermore, a categroy seldom used, and when used, means that the patient is recovered or no longer ill. Spitzer then concludes that “Rosenhan’s implication that the patient, when released, was still not considered sane, is unwarranted.” Since a “schizophrenic” episode has as definite a course an an initiation ceremonial, (a death and rebirth) remission is no problem; it is only the final and natural outcome of the total process. What needs to be explained by “mental health” hacks is the failure of many people who set out upon this voyage to return from it. I would like to ask Dr. Spitzer, as I am sure so would Dr Rosenhan, do these people encounter circumstances in institutional care so grossly maladaptive fi.e., electroshock, lobotomy, tranquilizers, insulin coma, etc.) that even the richest and best organized hallucinatory experience cannot save them?

You have proved me wrong. You only want to dedicate yourself to create many "injustices” and student activism based on yellow journalism which hurts the students and makes a fool of yourself. 1 hope the students of this school will not depend on you for accurate information and find things out for themselves.

It doesn’t matter that we may have already made future plans. Nor does it matter that we may not have the money to go an extra year. It also doesn’t seem to matter that some students transferred to this school specifically for this program. Are we expected to transfer as juniors and lose credits? What about the ties we have here, must we uproot them? Is the administration of the school going to sit back and let one person have this responsibility? Granted the administration of the school of SW had nothing to do with the budget cut, but they are shirking their obligation by abandoning our fight for accredidation. What good will a degree from this program be if we aren’t even approved? Why even continue now? Yes, 1 do want an education, but how can I give credence to anything I’m told if it might be retracted tomorrow?

So why is our program no longer worthy of accredidation? I believe it is. What has changed? This department, which is supposed to be run in a democratic fashion has become a dictatorship. One man has been given the power to 1 would like to add my comments to the person who criticized Mr. Sal Tedesco’s driving (Blue Bird bus No. 259). This letter would have been written sooner, but when I read the original letter (in which Mr Tedesco was referred to only as “No. 259”), I thought that a mistake had been made, that he wasn’t the person involved That didn’t sound like Mr. Tedesco. Last year I rode Mr. Tedesco’s bus every day, so I believe 1 am qualified as anyone else to comment on his driving. 1 had an 8:30 a.m. class every morning at Ellicott, which meant a lot of tired, half-awake rides out there early in the morning. When you’re tired and half-organized, even a bus driver’s conduct can have an effect on the rest of your day. Without exception, that effect that Mr Tedesco’s driving produced was a pleasant one. He drives efficiently, but never recklessly. And at least for me, having one less thing to worry about (that is, driving) makes my day a little better. In addition to being one of Blue Bird’s better drivers, Mr. Tedesco is easily the most courteous one 1 have ever ridden with. Since I've ridden the buses a lot, I have some small idea of the things that drivers have to put up with. I know I’d never be able to maintain an even temper, let alone a pleasant disposition, under some circumstances. And Mr. Tedesco always manages to be friendly and polite. 1 don’t think anyone would disagree that a smile means a lot these days. So please think again . . . and consider the way before you criticize you may have acted . someone, especially someone as capable as Mr. Tedesco Helen A. Eunicello Friday, 21 November 1975 .

Now a seasoned veteran, we figured it would he fun to sec what changes have occurred since last year's race. So, we now give Turkey Trot Revisited. you ” by John H. Reiss Spectrum Staff Writer Last year I didn’t mind doing this assignment. In fact I enjoyed it. I was a freshman, it was my first year on the staff and I was going to do whatever I was told. Even so it interested me. A Plimptonian article, running the Turkey Trot for The Spectrum. 1 was given the privilege of doing said story because of an offhand remark I had made to last year’s sports editor, Bruce Engel, stating that 1 had been keeping in shape by running. Although this was true when the comment was made I had long since abandoned this practice by race time. Rubin the taskmaker This year, however, was different. Editor David J. Rubin knew very well that weekly contests in intramural football were the extent of my running. This knowledge, coupled with the good friendship that binds us, left me with the firm conviction that 1 had seen the last of the Turkey Trot. In fact, upon observing the advertisements laden on the walls of Clark Hall promoting the event I laughed reminicing about last year’s debacle and postulated as of scrawny, to what sort freshman would green frightened, see his heart pound through his sweatshirt this time around. the imaginary However, freshman was never to be because five days before the race Rubin informed me that 1 would be the paper’s choice once again. Apparently the reasoning was that I would learn from my past mistakes and vastly improve my performance. Wrong again, Rubin. Weightlifting no help This year most,of my physical consisted of very training semi-regular work outs in the weight room at Clark Hall. The beneficial effects supposedly associated with this type of exercise have apparently not made their mark on my body yet. My return from the weight room usually causes convulsive laughter followed by the unsolicited advice that in the future I should try putting some weights on the bar. In any event 1 decided Wednesday, race day. that jogging to class might not be the worst of ideas. After having run no more than 100 yards (it seemed endless) I chose to walk. 1 wouldn’t want to tire myself before the race now would I? Soon after this aborted at had running attempt terminated, a conversation between my brain and my heart took place, one which I was not informed of until after the race: As the gun sounded, 100 people, including a friend who informed by our news sources promised to run with me, left me that this clod who employs us in their dust.

If its intent is to be taken at face value, the law appears to be a dismal failure. This fall Western New York witnessed teacher strikes in Niagara Falls, the Starpoint district in Niagara County, the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) in Niagara and Orleans Counties, Springville, Orchard Park and Williamsville. The Buffalo Police are currently engaged in a “courtesy campaign” brought on by a dispute over uniform allowances. The police are avoiding issuing tickets for parking or traffic violations until the dispute is settled. by Mike McGuire Contributing editor New York State’s Taylor Law, which governs relations with public employees, has been controversial since its passage and it is likely to remain so as each September, another part of New York Slate is hit by an “illegal” teachers’ strike. The law, known officially as the Public Fair Employment Act, covers most aspects of relations between public employees on the slate and local levels, and their employing agencies. It includes the right to join or not to join an “employee organization" (the word “union” is nowhere mentioned in the law), sets the right of such organizations to bargain with the employing agency on behalf of its members, establishes a Public Employees Relations Board (PERB) to oversee employee-employer relations, provides a procedure for handling impasses in collective bargaining, and prohibits “improper actions” on the part of either employers or “employee organizations.” Penalties The Taylor Law’s weakness does not lie in a lack of penalties. A striking employee can be docked two days’ pay for every day on strike, is placed on probation for a year, and is denied tenure for a year following the offense. A striking union can lose its'“checkoff privilege, which allows it to automatically deduct dues from members’ paychecks, and in turn, can he docked an average week's dues and initiation lees for every day of the strike. In addition, if the employer obtains an injunction against a proposed strike, union leaders can be hit with additional lines and even jail terms, as was the case in the Orchard Park strike. Union leaders in Orchard Park arc out on bail while they appeal their convictions. Section 210 The most well-known and controversial part of the law, however, is Section 210, which states “No public employee or employee organization shall engage in a strike, and no public employee or employee organization shall cause, instigate, encourage, or condone a strike." The same section makes a work slowdown or stoppage on the day of a strike equivalent to striking, and says that any employee absent without permission on the day of a strike shall be presumed to be on strike. Section 210 also outlines procedures in case of violation and lays out penalties for striking, both to individuals and to the “employee organization." According to a different section of the Taylor Law. a union must affirm that it does not support (he rigid to strike if it is to be recognized as a bargaining agent. Mediators Union leaders cite the law's provisions for overcoming bargaining deadlocks as one of its major faults. Under Section '0*>. a mediator in case of a not ptoducc deadlock, and the Hoard panel (usually three / , ENJOY WORKING The Spectrum is published Monday, WITH PEOPLE?

If this fails, the fact-finders can resubmit their recommendations to both sides 6f the dispute. If a settlement still isn't reached. PERB itself can make recommendations to both sides of suggest an arbitrator. Should either of those steps fail, both sides submit their arguments, along with the fact-finders’ report, to the legislative body of that particular agency. In the case of school districts, the legislative body is board; otherwise it could be a city council, a school the town council, a library board, or sometimes the state legislature itself (if aides to legislators were to reach an impasse with budget officers of the legislature). Opinions The legislative body can thus override the recommendations of fact-finders, arbitrators, mediators, and PERB itself, it it so chooses (although only school districts do so with any frequency). Calling a strike, the traditional last recourse of a labor union, is illegal for public employees under the law. it is the opinion of many labor leaders who have come in contact with the Taylor Law that the legislative body is not a disinterested observor, particularly if it is a school board, and that a union has only “theoretical” recourse if a state or local agency should refuse to bargain in good faith, or for that matter refuse to bargain at all. It is a small comfort to union members that, in assessing fines against unions, a judge can take into account the fact that the strike was provoked by the employer, if such is the case. Substitution? Another weakness of the law. according to many observers, is that it fails to differentiate between employees whose daily services are absolutely essential, such as firemen, sanitationmen and policemen, those whose absence would be felt but would nut bring about the collapse of society. And finally, those whose services are important but whose absence would be considered merely an inconvenience if it lasted for only several days. In a growing number of slates, laws are being changed so that there is a right to strike for the latter two groups, but not for those workers deemed absolutely essential. These issues are certain to be raised if and when a substitute to the Taylor Law is considered in New York Slate.

Cray Staff Writer Spectrum Getzville Volunteer Fire Chief Dan Miller met with University officials Friday to discuss what he feels are the deficient safety precautions at the Amherst campus. Miller said he was pleased with the results of the meeting in which he presented a list of proposals to John Telfcr, Vice President for Facilities Planning, and Robert Hunt, Director of Environmental Health and Safety, Lawrence Southwick, an Amherst Town councilman and management professor. Hunt indicated one of Miller’s greatest concerns was the ability of fire apparatus to reach the exterior of Amherst buildings. Hunt explained that some of the buildings arc set far back from the roads, and Miller feels this makes reaching them a problem. Miller requested a curb on Flint Road be cut so the North Bailey Fire Department can reach Putnam Way directly from Maple Road without going all the way- to the Flint Road entrance. Changes Hunt said Miller asked that curbs should be cut Governors Residence Hall to provide a wider at entrance path. He also asked that additional standpipes be installed in some buildings. Facilities Planning is studying Miller’s proposals and will see what changes can be made, Hunt added. He said a follow-up meeting with Miller will be scheduled to discuss the stiuation more fully and determine what changes can be made. He noted that some changes would have to be included in budget requests and approved by Albany. Hunt said he was already aware of many of Miller’s concerns, and that his department and Facilities Planning had been studying them. “I think if we can solve the access problems we will have gone a long way to meeting their (Miller s) concerns,” Hunt said. Productive relationship Southwick, who serves as a liason between the Amherst fire departments and the town board, also felt the meeting was very productive. He said both the administration and Miller are working towards the same goals, and that Hunt and Telfer were cooperating as much as they could. Hunt also feels that a good working relationship has been established with Miller. He said he thought all of Miller’s proposals were good, but added that it takes time and money to make changes. False fire alarms, which Miller is extremely concerned about, were also discussed. Hunt said the problem is intensified by a New York State Law which requires all school fire alarm systems to be tied directly to a fire department.” The interpretation of “schools” has always been unclear, according to Hunt. He claimed it has never been established if this refers to all schools or only elementary and high schools. However, he pointed out that even if the law compelled the University to lie Amherst campus fire alarms into the town system, the University would still be able to verify each alarm. The Getzville and North Bailey Fire Departments, thus, don’t have to run to the campus every time someone pulls an alarm.

The speakers included State Senator James McFarland, History professor Dr. Michael Frisch, Vice President for Health Sciences Carter Pannill, SA president Michele Smith, Union of University Professionals representative Oliver Gibson, Construction Industry Logan, president- Robert Employers Association Inter-Residence Council president David Brownstein, and Student Association of the State University (SASU) president Bob Kirkpatrick. About 150 attended the event, designed to inform the University community of the ramifications New York City’s default would have for the State University (SUNY) and for other parts of the state, including Western New York. Same rhetoric Frisch termed president Gerald Ford’s reasons for opposing aid for New York City “the same sort of rhetoric that has been coming out of Washington for years,” and part of “one of the oldest games in American politics.” He said that because of New York’s situation, the economy is close to the crisis period hit in the 1920’s, when people “panic,” and begin to believe “that their institutions are unsound.” “It’s not just New York; look right in front of you!” he exclaimed. He gloomily predicted that if New York City is not helped, “the consequences are going to follow.” Pannill reported that the local Porad of Regents has recommended that the tuition at the Medical School here be raised from $1600 to $4000. “At the present time, our student body is far from rich,” he said. ‘This should cause some concern.” Magnitude He said that at the present time, about one-third of the Medical School’s student body need “total financial aid.” He fears astronomical tuition costs would turn medicine and dentistry into “a rich man’s profession.” The budget crisis should not concern medical students alone, however, Pannill emphasized. If New York City defaults, he predicted that law and other professional schools would be hit just as hard. “This is of sufficient magnitude for all of us to be concerned. Now is the time for us to start paying attention,” he said. Logan emphasized the devastating effect on local Western New York construction projects, and thus on the jobs of local citizens, that the City’s default would have. The state’s poor financial situation has already delayed the beginning of many projects across the state, he siad. He said a health construction industry, because of the jobs and revenue it brings to a community, is “basic to the economy and to the well-being of our country.” The “ripple-effect” of the City’s financial crisis is already making its force felt in Western New York. “We are concerned as an industry,” he concluded. Bob Kirkpatrick commented. He wondered aloud where the activism of the Near criminal management McFarland stressed that although New York has 60’s among students has disappeared to, since “the issues probably reached its present crisis due to “near criminal being faced now come closer to the heart of education management” in the handling of the financial affairs of the than they did then.” He remarked that the Teach-In, although an city,” that it must be still helped out by the federal encouraging sign, would be “a mere triviality, unless some government.

The Spectrum Wednesday, 19 November 1975 . —Forr«st - - �Basic skills levels declining grammar. The remedial English or Subject A supervisor argued that this “illiteracy” was a “cultural problem, as students in an electronic society* have little chance to acquire reading-writing - Grammar ugh! The director of the English 100 program at USC called the program “a survival course" and accused high schools of over-emphasizing literature at the expense of grammar. “It isn’t always the students’ fault that they lack these skills," she said. “Most students tell us that the last time they had a grammar review was the eighth grade.” Other university officials have different explanations for the under-educated college student. Jerome Weber, University College Dean at Oklahoma University, attributed part of the problem to the shifts in high school goals from the three R’s to more social and personal growth. Others claimed it was a problem unique to a generation which was raised on television and radio. Instructors at the University of California have reported that students in their freshman English classes are not proficient in even the fundamentals of - skills.” TV classrooms According to the director of academic programs at UCLA, the television society is to blame for less educated college students. “Students today are more verbal,” he said. “They don’t read. They don’t have the written skills they once did. They’re TV educated.” But a recent report in the Christian Science Monitor holds the whole college-oriented society responsible for the lower level of skills of incoming freshmen. The report stales that many officials feel the reason for the student skills gap is the fact that the whole post-secondary education system has become much less elite. This has been particularly true in recent years when many colleges began admitting students who would not have met the minimum qualifications for admission several years ago when the competition for college space was fiercer. For instance, students with SAT verbal scores of 350 can be admitted to the University of South Carolina, but enrollment in a basic skills program is required for freshmen with verbal scores between 350 and 390. Although hundreds of colleges and universities are making basic skills programs available to their students, it is often the student’s choice to attend or not to attend. Unfortunately, many students do not recognize their own needs for remedial classes and spurn them. There is still a stigma attached to classes which set out to do no more than leach college students skills they should have acquired in S* secondary schools. And many colleges which offer basic skills classes give little or no college credit for the hours spent catching up. But if the basic skills levels of incoming freshmen continues to decline, students may rush to the remedial English courses just to insure their survival in regular college classrooms.

Now, with more high school students going to college and admissions standards at many schools loosening, administrators are recognizing the existence of a basic skills gap which handicaps many college students. Colleges and universities across the country are setting up remedial programs to meet the needs of students who find they never learned how to write in complete sentences. Basic skills programs are most prevalent at two-year and community colleges, but the problem has also surfaced at private four-year schools which have traditionally drawn the cream of the high school crop. At the University of South Carolina (USC) where lower SAT scores prompted a remedial grammar class called English 100, the admissions director blamed the increasing popularity of college for decreasing proficiency in English skills. “A broader segment of people taking the test results in a broader base of ability being measured,” he said.

And, at least for a while, 1 don’t expect to become obsessed with filmmaking per se as a lifelong artistic pursuit. With the exception of handling (and/or caressing) an occasional Super 8 camera or two, not to mention a 16mm Bolex (!) that some filmmaker friends brought over to my place recently when we viewed some of their films together, I have never shot even a frame of footage in my entire life. In one part, it’s because I have been to obsessed with viewing, analysing, criticizing, learning about, and loving movies for the past few years to become as equally obsessed with making them. But, also, it’s the money angle that has prevented me from the legitimate pleasure of being behind the camera for once. Don’t let anyone fool you: filmmaking is an expensive proposition. To give you an example, let me take a three-minute 16mm color sound film that one of my friends made. After accounting for film stock, processing, sound striping, dubbing, and special lab costs for fades, dissolves, etc., his film cost around $350! Now that’s 16mm. The same film in Super 8 would probably come to about one-fourth to one-fifth the cost. That comes to about $90 tops, but who can afford that? Much less $2.75 (or $1.25, if you, as I, cannot afford anything but the matinee) to go to see a first-run flick out in the suburbs. But if you have the filmmaking bug and can’t shake it, start off with the most inexpensive format possible Super 8. Then do two more things: one, if you are a student, go to the Film Club in Norton Hall and plunk down your $5 membership fee which will give you access to the camera equipment they have to offer and, two, go to your nearest good bookstore, pull $6.95 out of your wallet, and buy Lenny Lipton’s newest book on filmmaking, The Super 8 Book. If you are not familiar with Lipton, he is a filmmaker who several years ago wrote what is now considered to be the Bible of 16mm filmmaking, Independent Filmmaking (Straight Arrow, $7.95). Well, if Independent Filmmaking is the Old Testament (to continue this Biblical metaphor), The Super 8 Book is definitely The New Testament of - , filmmaking. Like its precursor.

He is equally quick to point out that his method is simply that; his method. “They should be taken for what they are,” he points out, “one man’s way | of working a camera; you’ll be making a mistake if B you take this as dogma or anything more than a you fo own '" ,mne ,nd - Founder & / teacher of the "We Will Remember Survival School” THURSDAY.

I �VPERG Lifeline, an energy saving concept to help consumers by Jacqueline Schock Spectrum Staff Writer. A progressive utilities rate structure, recently introduced by the Vermont Public Interest Research Group (VPERG), is being considered for New York State residents. Lifeline, VPERG’s new plan, would provide a low, fixed pricing system for such basic utility services as heat and light. The plan is simple and equitable: the more power used, the greater the cost to the consumer. The consumer advocate group contends 'nirrcntly that utility companies consumers by small discriminate against for amounts of lower rates charging larger which wasteful promotes a power, practice consumption. According to Marvin Resnikoff, a physicist and member of Buffalo NYPIRG, Lifeline would shift the burden to larger, industrial consumers, thereby discouraging waste by all consumers. Resnikoff, testifying before the New York State Assembly Committee on Corporations, asserted that “when industry for other than starts looking energy-intensive means to make products, “Industries that use most of the energy today arc not creating jobs. This is why labor supports Lifeline. Thus, there is a broad coalition of senior citizens, poor and fixed-income persons, who support Lifeline and urge its passage,’' he continued. David Lennett, NYPIRG Executive Board member, said that hearings will be held by the State Assembly Committee on Authorities and Corporations, Commissions, in Buffalo this December, where Lifeline will be considered as an alternative to the present rate structure. “Advocates of Lifeline are traditionally faced with two possible mechanisms of realizing their goal,” Lennett said. ‘They can cither appeal to the state regulatory body to reform the present electric rate structure or they can organize their efforts around a legislative program designed to implement a Lifeline rate structure. In New York State both mechanisms are underway simultaneously.” He added that the legislative route has been the mechanism chosen in Maine and California, where Lifeline has been passed. Energy stamps proposed by the Federal Energy Administration and the utilities is Energy Stamps, a method of helping lower-income families meet the cost of their electric, gas and fuel oil bills. Those who meet the guidelines of federal poverty income levels can purchase these coupons to use in lieu of cash for utility payments. In his testimony, Resnikoff stated that NYPIRG strongly opposes the use of energy stamps, “unlike welfare, which is a subsidy to poor people, energy stamps would be a subsidy to the utilities,” he declared. “Utilities would raise their rates and money would go through the hands of the poor people right to the utilities. We oppose energy stamps because they would only apply to a small number of consumers rather than to the majority of us who need relief from a rate structure which favors large consumers over small users.” He feels energy stamps avoid “the real issue, the present rate structure.” If rates were designed to reward conservation instead of use, the need for expansion and capital and rate increases would be sharply reduced. ‘This is what Lifeline would accomplish,” he said. Resnikoff reiterated that Lifeline is backed by “a broad coalition of groups” throughout New York State, and declared that “it is a concept whose time has come.” Human sexuality day seminar Human Sexuality Day will be celebrated in the illmore Room tomorrow from 9 a m. to 5 p.m. The Human Sexuality Center (Pregnancy Counseling) will sponsor a “mass education of the University community on all aspects of human sexuality,” INDEPENDENT FOREIGN CAR SERVICE INC., 2820 BAILEY (Only one mile from Main Campus] behind Radio Shack, 838-6200 "j ' I I Now!

That seemed to make everyone happy Today students are not running circles around Hayes limited We would like to encourage members of the University community to join us on Thursday, November 20th, in fasting as part of a national effort to combat world hunger. Oxfam-America is promoting this “Fast for a World Harvest.” They ask that everyone donate the money they save on food by fasting to Oxfam so that they can work to alleviate the growing problem of world hunger by helping small farmers in less developed countries raise more food. In addition, tl\ey suggest that this day of fasting be used an an opportunity to: Experience your own hunger, keeping in mind that for you the next day’s breakfast can be counted on.

The Spectrum It’s not the people’s fault that private enterprise’s prices and concerns are built on past greed, present greed and guture greed. Inflation is nothing else but legalized greed. Mr. Cavage would like to perpetuate his system and prices on us. Why don’t you use student fees instead of tax-levied funds to run the Coop? Why not pay a nominal rent for the space used? I hope you people fight back! The article in The Spectrum following the Polish Cultural Exchange Wrestling Match on November 1st did not come out quite the way I envisioned it. I do not blame the reporter since during the excitement of the post-match activities, there could have been a failure in communication on my part. First of all, 1 want to point out that the contribution of many people at the University was monumental. Wrestling Coach Ed Michael not only put in tremendous hours and talent, but drove back and forth from Oswego on the day of the clinic and match and ran things smoothly. Dennis Delia, student coordinator, was an absolute wonder. The time, energy, talent and ability to get things done displayed by him was beyond all expectations. Frank Jackalone helped Dennis and stayed with the Polish Wrestling Team all during the time they were here and chauffered them around. The reception by the University Polish Cultural dub was beautiful and Barbara Pientka, President of the Club, was a gracious hostess. The cheerleaders and other students who helped at the door and by selling programs were great. Assistant Coach Scott Stever made a tremendous contribution as did Joe Staebell, U.B.’s equipment manager, and the ticket salesman. Art Westfall, did a great Job. The message I meant to convey to Larry Amoros, who was the reporter, was that in the past, I heard U.B. referred to in uncomplimentary terms, and I had heard of the school being referred to as the "world’s apathy capital." What I wanted to convey was that I, and many others, were willing to pitch in and provide the students with activities and events which would change that image and would add to the total experience of the students on campus. I do wish to convey a positive approach for the future. As was stated in the article, we will attempt to bring in other activities and events and we hope the student body will wholeheartedly get behind them in the future. Estimates on the crowd varied from 500 to 750 in the outside, depending on who was making the estimate. The article estimated the turnout at 200 people, a figure which again must have resulted from a failure of communication. My intent in giving the interview to your reporter was not to call names, but to help do something positive to change what I think has been an unfortunate image. -Harvey Rogers Niagara District A.A.U. Wrestling Chairman President Greater Buffalo Amateur Wrestling Club, Inc. U.B. '51 �IFRICAN MOUNT/ ERA —Attack on working class To the Editor. Proposed state Equal Rights Amendments have been voted down in N.Y. and N.J. prompting some negative reaction from women and men on this campus through The Spectrum. Blit far from signifying a failure of the people of New York State to support women, this vote signifies a failure on the part of the ruling class’ politicians and legislators to get over their most recent attack on working women, and the working class as a whole. Representatives from the ERA pushers have been coming to union meetings around Buffalo to make speeches and pass out literature. “Here’s our chance,” they say, “to make good on the American Dream, the 200 year old promise of equality. Support the ERA.” They talk especially proud about just their list of supporters, which reads like Who’s Who the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, every President since Eisenhower, financial families famous for their “charity” work, and the top officials of almost every trade union. Why such bourgeois support behind such equal-sounding words? Is the ERA just so much hot air, or will it have any real effect? It will have an effect all right. But it won’t have anything tp do with “equality” as far as the working class is concerned. Equal pay for equal work? Child care for working women? That’s not ERA territory. But it will affect the conditions we work under. Because, while the ERA grants some token opportunity especially to business and professional women, its main thrust will be to rob the working class of - Regrets protective laws that apply to women workers. These are the laws that put limitations on the amount of forced overtime women have to accept, on the weights employers can demand that they lift, and that guarantee certain rest and meal breaks. They are not, as the ERA pushers imply, old-fashioned laws that were put on the books by an employing class that feared that women were too delicate to work very hard. Women in the sweatshops were never put up on any pedestal. Our grandparents fought like hell to win those laws. The ERA would make them unconstitutional because they apply to women only. The ERA guarantees the “equal opportunity” for all of us to work 18 hours a week of forced overtime, to share equally in the speed up. And there’s the “equal opportunity” the Staten Island Hospital bosses offered the women maids recently when they tried to force them to do the work of the porters, clearing the way to lay off the porters. That’s the kind of “equality” the working class doesn’t need. Sixty years ago, when the working class won that was the protective laws for women workers fight for women’s equality, working class style. We still need it today, to defend protective laws and extend them to men workers. We don’t need to pin ourselves onto the tail of a movement for “equality” capitalist style, so that they can make good on their real “200 year old promise” to exploit the working class, men and women alike, with full — - “equality.” Revolutionary Communist Party Revolutionary Student Brigade for vets To the Editor. Recently, there was a news article and also an editorial in The Spectrum concerning and protesting the action of the U.S. House of Representatives in voting to terminate Gl Bill benefits for veterans entering the Armed Forces on or after 1 January 1976. The implicit assumption behind both the article and the editorial seems to be that veterans per se have the right to these benefits. But what is it that makes veterans so special? Historically, the rationale for veterans’ benefits has been that the country owes a debt of gratitude to those men and women who have risked their lives during wartime in the service of their country. One may ask, then, why these same benefits should be awarded to those who have not had to risk their lives in this manner and who, further, had a choice of whether they wished to join the Armed Forces in the first place, given the discontinuance of the draft. It may be argued that the government should see to it that all people have the advantage of an education and thus veterans too should be helped, but this is another matter entirely divorced from the - specific question of the merits of (II Bill benefits and should not be allowed to confuse the issue. Just so that my personal bias may be evaluated. I might add that I am a graduate student who. until the term of my benefits ran out. was receiving (• I Bill educational assistance as a Vietnam War veteran. Henedikt M. Kellner P.S. I might point out that lately The Spectrum distribution to Acheson Hall has been either non-existent or at best inadequate. Intelligence requested To the Editor. I recently sent a letter to The Spectrum concerning the Women’s Studies College issue. It was printed in the November 12th issue. I apologize if I offended anyone with the strong ■anguage of my letter. Jeff Van Praag and Dave Weiteman sent in a response that appeared in the November 14th issue. They sent their letter in with the sole intent of having a little “fun” and taking personal potshots at me. For those of you who wonder why they would do this, Mr. Van Praag is one of my roommates and Mr. Weiteman lives down the hall. It’s sad that these two “men” I use the term loosely feel that taking personal potshots is more important than discussing such an important issue as this intelligently. I wish that “people" again, I use the term loosely like these two would keep their personal problems out of The Spectrum. Now, let’s get back to the issue. I ask that the truly concerned persons on campus send in an intelligent letter and define and justify the reasons for keeping men out of “Women in Contemporary Society.” Please don’t give the general, ambiguous reasons that have been circulating around the — - Injustice to vets To the Editor Just two days after most of America paid tributes to the sacrifices veterans have made for this country and while we are in the midst of a Bi-centennial Celebration which is a direct result of these sacrifices, the Vietnam veteran’s media-twisted image has been reinforced by yet another injustice. On National Television, Thurs., Nov. 14th, Johnny Carson, whose thoughtless witicisms are taken by millions as gospel, stated that the rise in crime in this country could be attributed to the fact that - — “Vietnam veterans were taught to be violent.” In other words. Vietnam vets are the zombie-like felons responsible for the present crime rate. We can also assume from his statement that WW II and Korean vets were not “taught to be violent." If this is correct then we must also conclude that the military planners of Hiroshima and Nagasaki sought only to provide a non-violent demonstration of Nuclear Power! Patrick S. Kelly President of UH Veterans Association campus. Thank you, very much. Walter F. Thiessen, Jr. Combat violence To the Editor Following the mles To the Editor To begin with I would like to thank you for your criticism about my handling of 259. It seems to me as well as the rest of the hands that feed me, that 259 is operated properly and with the proper authority. I do not consider myself the driver of a tank on a battleground. My job here is not to cruise along and run people over if they happen to be in my way, I am a trained and licensed bus driver for Blue Bird Coach Lines. I am here to serve the University community. As a part of this community you have to follow the same rules as anyone else in regard to bus transportation. To begin with, you first have to learn where the bus stops are. For the Amherst runs the bus stop is only on the Clark Hall sice of Diefendorf annex and after 6 p.m. the Tower side of Norton Hall. For call of the Ridge Lea runs these are only on the Harriman side of Diefendorf annex and after 6 p.m. also at the Tower side of Norton Hall. As you can very well see there are no stops in between. Myself, as well as alt of the other drivers do make the stops around the bend for anyone who happens to flag us down. But. you have to realize which you apparently do not, that there are certain instances that force us not to make all of these unlisted stops These are: A full bus load which usually occurs at that time of day. 2. Weather conditions; as you may recall, the weather was very bad and any unnecessary stopping would impede other bus traffic causing lateness and possibly an accident. You must realize these things: use your own judgment. Think about it, you would have done the same thing, I am responsible for my passengers and 1 will not do anything that can possibly hurt them. As for my driving I do not race around that corner. To begin with 259 or any bus for that matter, could not possibly get into a high enough gear to excede the speed of 20 -mph which is the University speed limit. So think about these things and you will realize that your accusations of myself and 259 are false. Think about others in the University community. They can follow the rules and so do I. I hope you will take these things into consideration and realize your mistake. 1. I appeal to the University community to consider honestly combating crime in our streets, thus lessening possible crime in our homes. I don’t advocate putting on your good Samaritan badge and hustling off to your trusty, waiting VW (Bug) in hot persuit of wrong doers. On the contrary, I suggest that we simply flood local intransigent T.V. stations with realistic requests for less violence and more positively oriented programs. That’s all folks. hru On/y one travel service To the Hditor. This is to alleviate any confusion regarding Travel services on campus. UUAB is not involved in any way with any travel service.

These are only two of the doomsday statistics on global and domestic hunger that serve as a backdrop for the National University Conference on Hunger, set for November 21-23 at the University of — - Texas at Austin. “If we have learned anything in the past year,” conference organizers said, “it is that the problems of global and domestic hunger will be here, rising and falling, for many years to come.” According to conference organizers, the conference “will examine components of a sensible and comprehensive national food policy, discuss ways of establishing hunger as a teachable course at the university level, and outline suggestions on what individuals and groups can do to combat hunger.” One of the most important discussions, conference organizers said, will involve the question of food as a right for all people. “It is ironic that in this country public education is considered more of a right than food,” said the Rev. William Sloane Coffin, Chaplain at Yale University and one of the conference participants. Enrollment problems them out Human Sexuality Day Thursday, Nov. 20 from 9 5 pm in the Fillmore Room - information tables on (CPS) Colleges groping after tight money are doing strange things to school policies these days. The University of Colorado (UC), faced with a has legislature-imposed ceiling, enrollment announced a new plan that will kick some students out while Florida school officials have hatched a scheme to keep them in. At UC, admission is at a premium after state lawmakers froze enrollment at the 18,600 level. Last year there were 10,000 new freshmen and transfer applications out of which 6800 were accepted and 3700 finally enrolled. So, to facilitate the ousting of marginal students, the CU College of Arts and Sciences changed its rules to allow for academic suspensions twice a year instead of once and abolished the “sliding scale” which formerly gave a break to students with a sub-2.0 grade point average. In Florida however, they don’t want to let the students get away. There, the Board of Regents passed a rule last spring which would require students at all Florida state-supported schools to complete a certain amount of credit hours during the summer. The rule would be waived in case of hardship. Since the money situation for Florida schools is now grim at best, the Board of Regents of Human Sexuality. | getting them in and keeping Last year 700 UC students were suspended and 300 more will join their ranks this year, according to Arts and Sciences Associate D$an John Cames.

But for a change, the results show now everybody is as reactionary as some pollsters would have us believe. Fifty OSU students were recently shown an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence and asked whether they agreed with it. According to the results published in the Barometer the campus paper, 41 of the students said they agreed with the paragraph which talks about “the Rights of the People to alter or abolish” a wayward government. The results run counter to several polls of recent years in which people asked if excerpts read to them were authored by Che Guevara rather than Thomas — , Jefferson. In the OSU poll, in which only two students disagreed and seven were undecided, over half said they had read a similar statement elsewhere. Nearly one quarter of the respondees even correctly identified the excerpt as from the Declaration of Independence. The Undergraduate Chief.

Clits held off a powerful QB 714 steam 7-6 to Buffalo’s Intramural capture Championship Football last Saturday at Rotary Field. “The defense kept coming up with the big plays when we needed them. They won it for us,” said Bob Johanson, the captain and quarterback of the Clits. The Clits needed a lot of big defensive plays to hold off the always threatening QB 714, which came within 20 yards of scoring seven of the eight times they had the ball, including four drives that fell as close as five yards shy of the goal line. “They beat us. They just played a better game,” said a dejected Brian Rosenbloom, upset with his team’s inability to score from in close. The Clits scored first following a pass interference penalty in the end zone giving them a first down on the one yard line. Johanson wasted no time in taking advantage of the big break by sweeping around left end for a touchdown. Bernie McKeever pulled down a deflected pass for what proved to be the winning extra point.

But the CUt defense refused to yield on the next three downs with Joe Makinajian nailing Rosenbloom for a loss on fifth down. (In intramurals, the offense is aUowed five downs because there are no first downs to be gained.) The goal Une stand by the Clits was only the first of numerous such frustrations suffered by the QB 714.

A long bomb from Roscnbloom to Gross had the QB 714 7 yards away from paydirt with four downs remaining. But on the third down, a heavy pass rush led by Leon Gossin deflected the pass that was picked off by McKeever. With one minute left in the game and QB 714 buried deep in its own territory, Rosenbloom threw a desperation bomb that resulted in a questionable and crucial pass interference call giving QB 714 new Ufe and a first down at mid-field. Rosenbloom quickly connected on passes to Henkin and Morrie Fox moving the baU down to the three-yard line. It was at this point when the Clits proved themselves champions. On third down, the CUts’ Makinajian and Gossin combined to catch Rosenbloom for a loss back to the IS. Tremendous pass rushes along with great pass coverage forced two more incomplete passes and ended QB 714’s hope for a miraculous ending. The CUts reached the finals by stopping previously the undefeated Bionic Men 7-6 after an earlier game ended a scoreless tie. The first game was marred by five interceptions in a battle of defenses. Fine punting by both teams continually hampered die offenses with poor field position. The CUts quickly got on the scoreboard in the second game on a Johanson pass to Ernie Schinder, and Charlie Schembri caught the game winning extra point. Midway through the second half, the Bionic Men scored their touchdown on a pass from Mike to Dave Borsak.

Bernstein Merson Although the hockey Bulls won only one out of three games last week, left winger Jack Kaminska played excellently in each game. In Wednesday’s 4-3 triumph over Elmira, Kaminska scored the tying and winning goals. On Friday, against Lake Superior, he prevented the game from getting out of hand early with his outstanding penalty killing and fore-checking. Kaminska also got an assist and was named second star of the game. His play continued to shine on Saturday and as a result. Jack Kaminska is this week's Athlete of the Week.

The start of the match was delayed for an hour and hall as workmen tried to get the situation under control. Unfortunately for the Bulls, they eventually repaired the ice. and turned the control of the game over to the referees. The officials almost blew the game for the Buffalo skaters, forcing the Bulls into the penalty boxes in the early stages of all three periods. The ten minor penalties Buffalo gathered during the game gave them plenty of time to practice (heir penalty killing at a lime when they desperately needed to score goals themselves. "I hale lo point to excuses, but it appeared that there might be a lack of discretion," said Bulls’ coach Pd Wright of the officials' erratic calls. "One of them is calling penalties cross-ice for the other. It makes you think that maybe they arc incompetent.” Disallowed goal Competency is not the only thing in doubt about the officiating of the game. Referee Dave Principe and Richard Brinkman disallowed a perfectly legitimate Buffalo goal because they didn’t see it go in. By disallowing dial goal, the officials stunned the players, fans and most of all, the goal judge, who had turned on the red light when he saw the puck go in. That score would have put the Bulls just one goal down at S-4. and almost anything could have happened from there on. Instead, the officials’ error kept the two-goal margin in tact and took the heart out of the Bulls “The goal hit the center post and came out,” said Wright. “That’s a case of an official having no intestinal fortitude. Why wasn’t he in position?” The game marked the Buffalo debut of goaltender Alex Swift who played a gutsy if not spectacular game. The 21-year old freshman stopped 54 shots in an onslaught of rubber fired at the Bulls’ net. Wright had only words of praise for Swift, who hung in when the going seemed particularly tough.” Alex played a good game. He kept us in there to some extent until the third period,” Wright observed. Two-thirds successful The third period those were accursed words for the Buffalo skaters, as they seemed to run out of wind in the game’s last stanza. In the opening contest, they came out ready to pounce on Lake Superior, and wound up losing when the Soo Lakers fired 25 shots on goal in the closing 20 minutes. The best explanation for that loss was overaggressiveness. The Bulls seemed to be taking a lot of unnecessary gambles and heavy risks in the offensive zone and got caught deep, leaving Swift to face the Soo Lakers in one on one situations. On Saturday night the Bulls entered the final period knotted at three, when the Soo Lakers once again took command and sealed the Bulls’ fate, with five closing goals. — Hats off Soo Laker Ian Ward, who scored two goals in Saturday’s contest, popped the three goal hat trick in the Buffalo net on Friday for a five-goal weekend. Teammate Kim Gellert came up with four of his own on Saturday for the visitors’ second hat trick. Despite the two losses, there were bright spots in the Buffalo lineup. One was the excellent penalty killing of Ray Gruarin and Jack Kaminska, along with the fine play of Mike Caruana on the blueline. Additionally, rookie winger Ronny Reisweber added two goals in Saturday’s contest, to go with the tallies by Rick Wolstenholme and Gruarin. The Bulls must be able to put together three complete periods of hockey if they are to play on a level with Division I teams. If they can sustain the type of performances they exhibited in the first two periods of the Lake Superior games, then winning should become a regular occurrence, providing the refereeing doesn’t ruin the results.

Does insanity exist? Or is it merely with the which, a label along of a environment depersonalizing psychiatric ward, helps create the very syndrome it represents? A controversy centering on these questions is presently raging in the field of mental health, following the report of a field experiment by Dr. David L. Rosenhan, in which psychiatrists failed to weed out “sane pseudo-patients” from the “insane” in their wards. Rosenhan’s article, On Being Sane in Insane Places , was published in the January 1973 issue of Science magazine. In it, he reports on the experiment, which consisted of the voluntary admission of trained 12 psychiatric “pseudo-patients" to hospitals on the East and West coats of this but one were initially country. All diagnosed “paranoid schizophrenic,” and released on an average of 19 days later, with a diagnosis of “schizophrenia, in remission.” • Harmful, at best Conceding that some behavior is unquestionably deviant or odd, including murder and hallucinations, Rosephan nevertheless argues that “psychological categorization of mental illness is useless at best and downright harmful, misleading and pejorative at worst.” As an example of the inadequacy of psychological "categories," Rosenhan cites eminent contradictory reports from defendant sanity the of a psychiatrists on in a murder trial. "More generally," he goes on to say, “there are a great deal of conflicting data on the reliability, utility, and meaning of such terms as sanity, illness, and mental insanity, schizophrenia." To lest his hypothesis that “the sane cannot be distinguished from the insane in psychiatric hospitals," Rosenhan trained who gained “sane pseudo-patients" admittance to psychiatric hospitals by complaining of symptoms of auditory hallucinations. The words they claimed to have heard were “empty, hollow and thud," symptoms that supposedly arise from a feeling of meaningless in one’s life or existential psychosis. False identities The pseudo-patients, who in actuality consisted ol a psychology graduate student, three psychologists, a pediatrician, a painter, and a housewife, talsilred then names and vocations. Aside from these alterations, all other discussions of their accurate. histories were personal I urlhermore. upon admission to the psychiatric ward, all the alleged symptoms disappeared and the "pseudo-patient" carried on normally aside from some mild nervousness and anxiety related to being in a novel situation. In fact, reports Rosenhan. all of them were apprehensive of being discovered as frauds and none really believed they would be so easily admitted. Although the pseudo-patients' behavior from lira! point on was "normal,” none of them were suspected of deceiplion by the staff. Only the other patients caught on. During the first three hospitalizations, 35 out of I IK patients in the ward confronted .. them with accusations such as: "You’re crazy, you’re a journalist or a professor. You’re checking up on the hospital.” not Note-taking Careful notes were openly kept by the pseudo-patients. Initially, they went to great lengths to conceal this activity, but soon realized that no one took notice or cared. Records of nurses’ responses to the behavior of three of the writing pseudo-patients indicates that it was seen as one aspect of their pathological This lends credence to behavior. Rosenhan’s point that “the facts of the case were unintentionally distorted by the staff to achieve consistency with a popular theory of the dynamics of a schizophrenicreaction. ’’ Further support is found in one psychiatrist’s case summary prepared after the patient’s release. He ascribes “affective instability” to the patient's personal relationships, evidenced hy his childhood ambivalence toward his parents, as well as to control “attempts presumed emotionality with his wife.” In general, Rosenhan determines that “diagnoses were in no way affected by the relative health of the circumstances of a pseudo-patient's life.” On the contrary, his findings are that “the perception of his circumstances was shaped entirely by the diagnosis.” ‘Staff cages' Many pseudo-patients shared common observations. They all found that staff and patients are strictly segregated. Attendants spent an average of 11.3 percent of the day outside the “staff cage.” Daytime nurses, late afternoon and evening nurses, and physicians emerged from the cage an average of 11.5 times per shift. 9.4 times, and 6.7 times per day, respectively. ‘Those with the most power have the least to do with patients, and those with the least power are most involved With them. Rosenhan observed. In fact, it is his beliel that even an increase in staff would not provide a corresponding increase in patient care, but rather a greater amount of record-keeping and book work. Why is patient contact not a significant priority? Not because of fiscal pressures, asserts Rosenhan, but rather because of avoidance and depersonalization. Invisibility Powerlessness was reported to be depersonalization and overwhelming, the created a feeling among all pseudo-patients that they were invisible, “or at least unworthy of account.” In one instance, a nurse unbuttoned her uniform to adjust her brassiere in the middle of a men's ward. Her unseducltve manner ot feelings patients' enhanced the alienation and invisibility. An instance of depersonalization is found in the following encounter: A pseudo-patient asks, "Pardon me, Dr. X. Could you tell me when I am eligible for physician The privileges'’" grounds answers: “Good morning, Dave. How are you today’" and moves off without waiting for a response. One source of depersonalization, which Rosen han considers to be "countertherapeutic." is the attitude of both the general public, and specialists in the field toward the mentally ill. Fear, distrust and frightening expectations, combined with benevolent intentions. characterize these attitudes. “How many patients might be ‘sane’ outside the psychiatric hospital." he asks, “but seem insane in it because they are responding to a bizarre setting" and the self-fulfilling prophecy of their diagnostic label. Alternative As an alternative. Rosenhan suggests “focus on specific problems and behaviors" and a movement away from psychiatric labels, which he says are “in the minds of the observers and not valid summaries of characteristics displayed by the observed. Since the publication of Rosenhan's research, a volley of criticisms and rebuttals have followed. Bernard Weinef from the Department of UCLA argued that at Psychology not diagnoses qualitatively are psychiatric different from other medical diagnoses, thus justifying the conclusions of the the diagnosed who psychiatrists the of The behavior pseudo-patients. diagnosticians is quite rational, he states, in view of the basic doctrines of psychiatry, the treatment of schizophrenic and patients that has shown to be successful in the past. 'Logic, in remission' Robert L. Spitzer of the New York Slate Department "of Mental Hygiene accuses Rosenhan of “logic, in remission and-claims that his study is “pseudoscience presented as science." The issue of “sanity' vs. insanity" is purely legal, he points out. and totally irrelevant to the question ot whether psychiatric diagnoses are “only in the minds of the observers.” Spitzer also attacks Rosenhan lor Ills misrepresentation of the pseudo-patients discharge diagnoses. “In remission is a category seldom if ever used, according to Spitzer’s sample of 12 hospitals, and when used, means that the patient is recovered or no longer ill. Thus Rosenhan's implication that the patient, when released, was still not considered sane, is unwarranted. Sidney Crown of the London Hospital attacks both Rosenhan's methodology and the logic of his conclusions. Nevertheless he credits Rosenhan with directing professionals to take a cold, hard look at the current situation. “Diagnostic errors will decrease,” says Crown, “as criteria for schizophrenia become more Clearly defined and universally accepted.” Ethics Crown questions the ethics of research such as Rosenhan's, which depend upon lying and decepjion, because of the repercussions it might have upon future research. Crown states that “in spite of the method's crudity and the dogmatic conclusion’s lack of justification, he makes an important point concerning the way psychiatrists diagnose as well as the ongoing and continuous assessment of or lack of it.” patients of Rosenhan’s critique Another in the October appearing investigation, issue of the Journal of Abnormal Psychology, is authored by Theodore Millon of the University of Illinois’ Medical Center, Once again the methodology of the original investigation comes under attack, as well as Rosenhan’s proposed solution to the problem. While agreeing with the desire for explicit criteria, the suggestion that “hallucinating" as a label is more specific and tangible than such conceptually hazy terms schizophrenia is deemed as inevitably and niave philosophically - misguiding Response Rosenhan replies to the above criticisms in the same issue ol the Journal While that his original position admitting concerning the use of symptom diagnoses rather than syndrome diagnoses was too strong, he maintains that traditional psychiatric syndrome diagnoses are not apd rest on consensus carefully rather than empirical fact. For example, he points out the recent by the American Psychiatricaction Association to dismiss homosexuality from the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. “Changes in informed public attitudes toward homosexuality have brought about corresponding changes in the psychiatric perception of it.” Rosenhan claims this as further evidence that psychiatric diagnoses are affected by contexts, and even “the context created hy psychiatric hospital colors our the perception of psychiatric patients.” �Not likely Film documentary The Unquiet Death of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg a documentary about the conviction and execution of a couple convicted of treason during , the McCarthy era in the early 19S0’s, will be presented Wednesday by the Speaker's Buearu, UUAB, and American Studies.

SUNY buys up own bonds to raise money Proposals for a health fee A mandatory health fee at State University suggested by schools has been (SUNY) administrators in Albany as a means ot reducing the overall SUNY budget. The Spectrum has learned. In an internal SUNY memo. Associate University Dean for Student Affairs Ronald M. Bristow recommended a number of steps individual campuses should follow regarding health services. He asked that each campus make up a health care delivery plan that would include “emergency first aid and administrative services," a play for paying the cost. He said $5 per “annual average head count” should be the most the state pays to fund health care. Individual campuses would then be required to pick up the tab for any additional costs. (SUNN) At a special meeting Thursday, the State University (SUNY) Board of Trustees voted to approve a request to use $7,325 million of SUNY’s $43 million endowment fund to buy up its own short-term notes, which were due on Friday, and to convert the debt to long-term Paying customers bonds. Bristow’s report also suggested that each campus SUNY Executive Vice Chancellor James F. Kelly said Monday be authorized to levy a health fee and a schedule of night that, if endowment funds are used, the bonds purchased ‘‘will fees for certain health-related services. In addition, a most likely bear the going interest rate” of about ten percent. "utilize" funds from groups such as Under the plan, the interest would return to the University.

Special investment lawyers hired by the University separating program into the of the construction was possibility purely internal, and the amount saved memo looking from the HFA entirely and creating a separate agency to market SUNY would hover around S I '/i million, to be distributed throughout the SUNY system. loans. SUNY bonds are considered among the most attractive of those marketed by HFA because the University takes in more than one and a half times as much revenue as is necessary to pay off the debt service, a technical term for interest and part of the principle on its borrowings. The ratio of the $190 million income from tuition, lees, and hospital revenues to the $112 million in debt service is about 1.6 to 1. - Not the answer Is probably not Kelly said last Monday night that a separate agency problems, because creating a new agency would by spreading it to cover two funds at once, the old diminish the ratio bond issues in the UFA and the new ones in the independent agency. Completed SUNY buildings account lor SI.6 billion in long-teryi bonds. SUNY’s construction budget currently includes $718 million in short-term notes and authorizations. The short-term debts break down this way: S400 million in short-term notes. S200 million in authorizations being used at a clip ot SS million a month, and $118 million ($92 million in construction and the answer to SUNY’s in equipment) in authorizations for projects not yet started (which will be reviewed before money can be reallocated by the state $26 million legislature. a moral obligation agency, which borrows money for housing projects, health facilities, and SUNY buildings. It is called a UFA is moral obligation agency because, until the buildings-are built, there is nothing creditors can seize il UFA defaults. The construction itself is funded through the sale of short-term notes which arc usually due in a year or less. When these notes fall due, they are paid either by selling more notes for uncompleted buildings or bonds for completed buildings. Bonds, which are paid off over 30 years, allow SUNY or other borrowers to pay gradually. II the borrower does not pay off the bond, the lender can seize the building. The fiscal crisis in New York City and New York State has forced moral obligation authorities to offer higher and higher interest rates to attract investors. Last October, SUNY marketed tax-free notes and bonds at interest rates of between five and six percent. One year later, the rates had risen to between nine and eleven percent.

Whitman, Director of the Buffalo Zoo, to campus at noon in Norton 332. Whitman will discuss the problems involved in planning and running zoos. Following the discussion will be two films: The Seal Slaughter and Fur Trapping. Default to cause more cuts by Paige Miller Assistant Sports Editor The Athletic Department, whose budget has already been reduced for next year, faces even further cutbacks if the State University (SUNY) makes system-wide cutbacks following a possible New York City default. However, observers feel it is too early to predict exactly what would have to be cut. “We’ve made no, gumption as to what would happen to us as an institution if New York City defaults,” said Assistant Executive Vice President Charles Fogel. “There’s too much unknown to do anything intelligent.” The part of the Athletic Department’s budget which would be directly affected by SUNY cutbacks Charles Fogel intercollegiate coaches’ salaries. The remainder of the money, for varsity teams and intramurals, comes from part of the $67 mandatory fee which all undergraduates pay to the Student Association (SA). Coaches’ salaries were tentatively eliminated from the University budget for the 1976-77 year. The lines were restored later, although no one knows from where the money will come. In the event there are University-wide cutbacks, coaches salaries’ are likely to be cut again, either partially or entirely. is the In jeopardy Eliminating coaches’ salaries could have repercussions throughout the entire School of Health Education. Most coaches also instruct Physical Education courses, and if their varsity coach wages are cut, they might seek coaching jobs elsewhere. “In a real financial crisis, they [the coaches] could very well be in jeopardy again,” said School of Health Education Dean Harry Fritz. “In the event of drastic cuts, everybody would start from zero. They would have to fend and scratch for themselves,” Fritz said. Fritz also pointed out that “there would be a decline in the offering of courses. This would mean fewer students, and therefore proportionally less funds.” Pressure groups SA has also come under pressure to reduce the Athletic budget from many campus groups who claim a disporportionate amount of mandatory fee money goes to only a small number of athletes. This pressure has already caused a gradual reduction in SA’s allotment to athletics and combined with a drop in enrollment, could cause even further cutbacks in the Department. “1 would hate to think what would happen then,” said Bill Monkarsh, baseball coach and director of Intramurals and Recreation. The intramural program, however, has received wide support among the student body. “This is a program which is beneficial to all students,” Monkarsh said. “This is the type of program which needs to be expanded, not cut back.” Pressure groups SA has also come under pressure to reduce the Athletic budget from many campus groups who claim a disporportionate amount of mandatory fee money goes to only a small number of athletes.

I '■ - • T » , City Editor The impending default of New York City, which is expected to have severe effects on New York State, is also creating problems in the city of Buffalo’s municipal bond market. Borrowing money to meet Buffalo’s expenses has become increasingly difficult in recent weeks, as investors have been very reluctant to put their money in municipal bondi. A recent crisis was averted only when the city was able to finance a complex loan from a group of local banks and insurance companies. It was also necessary to use some funds from the city’s cash reserves, and to cancel some $8.9 million worth of projects. Additionally, Buffalo had fo pay record interest rates of 9.5 to 10.5 percent on the notes sold in that package. In the weeks since then, the city has had to enter the unsettled bond market a number of times in order to meet daily expenses. ‘Fragile thing’ James W. Burns, Buffalo’s Commissioner of Administration and Finance, said, “The municipal bond market is the most ephemeral and fragile thing in tjie world,” and decisions made by investors in the market are often based on psychology and irituitioh. It is taken for granted by people inside and outside the financial world that the primary cause of Buffalo’s borrowing problems is New York City’s fiscal crisis. New York’s inability to keep its head above water for very long these days, and the fact that it is desperately in need of federal aid to avoid default, has caused investors to look doubtfully upon municipal bonds. Meanwhile, Buffalo’s effective borrowing capacity has diminished by two-thirds over the last five years, and the city is fast approaching its constitutional debt limit. Demolition and decay Because it is based on property values, the constitutional debt limit itself has been declining because of demolition, decay and the arson which is plaguing the inner city. As the city approaches its debt limit, it will become harder to sell its bonds, and therefore it will have to pay higher interest rates, which will only drive it deeper into debt. Another problem Buffalo faces is the loss of some property revenues. The city had received special permission from the State Legislature to collect these taxes for the last two years, but the State’s voters recently rejected an amendment which would have authorized its continuation. All Buffalo can do, at least for the present, is hope that the situation will improve, and that interest rates will go down. “What’s happening now is that the market is in paralysis.” Burns said. Buffalo’s next move, then, will depend upon what happens to New York, and the bond market’s response. /}/ /uw- O' wtr~. pnMIwAwfftkf, f Aav<~ (irttfrfCn. listnd Recreation.

Page three �Big-time The sports watchdogs are hacking down misconduct by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum The watchdog of athletics, the National Collegiate Athletic Association uncovered has (NCAA), “flagrant” violations of its rules in recent months and basketball programs are the number one offenders. At least five schools were investigated or put on probation early this summer because of their high-powered basketball recruiting programs. Most of the rule breaking concerned recruitment practices by college athletic departments anxious to get the best new basketball players by “loaning” them money or favors. Clemson University in South Carolina was sentenced to three years on NCAA probation because the former coach, Tates Locke, offered some extra favors to student athletes. Locke admitted loaning money to several Clemson students and suggesting that he would forget it if the loan was not repaid. Locke was also charged with offering to purchase a house for the mother of a prospective student athlete and to pay all (CPS) - big-time utility bills for the home during her son’s enrollment at the The University. prospective student was identified by the school’s legal counsel as hich school basketball star Moses Malone. Restrictions Although probation may mean little more than a reprimand, it can also be accompanied by other restrictions on a school’s program. When Kentucky State University (KSU) was placed on indefinite probation in September, the NCAA also stipulated that KSU new could not offer any in scholarships grants-in-aid basketball after this fall. The coach of the highly successful team was charged with taking money for helping professional teams sign two former KSU players. The school suspended the coach for a year but the NCAA didn’t think the punishment was severe enough and put the entire program on probation. The NCAA does not verify the allegations itself. Confirmation the accused from comes suggested the as does institution punishment. But if a school doesn’t conduct a “good faith” investigation, the NCAA will not hesitate to increase the penalties. The University of Minnesota is conducting a thorough search of its basketball program after NCAA officials presented them with a list of 98 alleged instances of misconduct, mostly relating to recruitment practices. Although the specifics have not been made public, most of the infractions seem to have involved loans and favors by the coach and others to basketball players or prospective players. The University is now in the process of condemning itself by proving that about three-quarters of the allegations are true. But “the worst thing we could do would be to operate a cover-up,” said Stan Kegler, a University vice oversees who president The athletics. intercollegiate worse if the penalty would be the out that NCAA found hiding something.

Thomas Romans, Associate Professor of Economics. ‘The after effects will be that New York City will be forced to balance its budget, and this would generally imply a cutback in the services the city renders, and an increase in taxes.” Marjorie Girth, Associate Professor of Law and Jurisprudence, agrees, although she feels the federal government snould do all it can to make the city an attractive place to live. She said this could be accomplished by improving transportation, the quality of education, and “by cleaning up the city.” Romans said federal support of cities, particularly New York City, should help end their decline and increase financial stability so that they do not “limp along” under generally poor conditions. He traced New York’s economic problems back to the exodus of the tax-paying middle classes and businesses, and the influx of poorer people who are dependent on the city’s social services. Romans also claimed local and state governments throughout the country are being forced to undertake functions of the federal government like welfare. The state generally tries to tax all persons equally according to their wealth unlike the federal government, he said. With the state and city forced by law to cover the $1.5 billion cost of welfare, and with the massive switch in population from middle to lower classes, the result is financial crisis. Handicapping factor Romans said there is no historical precedent for the default of a major city. The only previous case is the default of Detroit during the Great Depression of the 1930’s. Detroit reorganized and met its debts almost immediately. Default is simply the failure to meet a financial obligation when it is due. The difference between default and bankruptcy is that bankruptcy is a financial reorganization through the courts after an organization’s debts either exceed its assets, or the organization runs out of cash (liquidity). According to Girth, the major stumbling block for New York City’s filing bankruptcy papers is that plans for reorganization approved by a majority of the city’s creditors must be filed simultaneously. Many of New York City’s bonds are bearer bonds, that is, they are issued to no particular person and are collectible by whoever holds them, and making it virtually impossible to obtain approval for reorganization plans from the bond holders. Legislation to amend the bankruptcy codes to allow New York City to submit " approved reorganization plans is pending in Congress. Romans does not foresee severe repercussions if New York City defaults. ‘There is a belief among conservatives that the New York City financial community is omniscient in its views,” he said. Romans blasted the “sanctimonious” attitude of Treasury Secretary William Simon, the Federal Reserve Board and President Gerald Ford. He claimed that their charges of mismanagement by New York City officials, whether founded or not, do nothing to help the situation. He also views the attacks against free tuition at the City University of New York (CUNY) as a further threat to New York’s tax base, since one of the purposes of CUNY’s free tuition is to provide an advantage for the middle class to remain in the city. Redefinition of cities One alternative to the financial plight of the cities is to redefine a city’s geographic boundaries to create an area of “economic influence,” which would include people who commute to work in the city, the range of its television signal and other factors. Resistance to such plans would be strong since most suburbanites would probably not want to be considered residents of cities and be subject to further taxes. Commentary Telegram Boyer warns Ford State University (SUNY) Chancellor Ernest Boyer (SUNN) telegramed President Ford last week to warn him that the prospect of default by New York City “already has made it impossible to market top-rated university bonds.” Boyer said this “will result in needed facilities remaining half-built, cuts in student enrollment and massive layoffs of construction workers throughout the state.” The telegram, which was cosigned by Trustee Chairwoman Elisabeth Luce Moore, was accompanied by a news release listing 43 construction projects on 15 campuses across the state that would be - halted if the bonds were not sold. As estimated 5,000 construction workers would lose their jobs if SUNY cannot finish the buildings, many of which are more than half completed. Amongst the campuses most seriously affected would be Stony Brook’s Health Sciences Center (total estimated cost of $219 million),* Buffalo’s Amherst Campus ($157 million) and the State University Center at Purchase ($93 million). Cutback in education critical while military spending is up by John Butler Spectrum Staff Writer The federal budget for the 1975 fiscal year once again calls for an increase national defense and military spending, while cutting back on expenditures in critical areas of education. The Ford administration has allocated over $95 billion or 25 percent of the annual budget towards national defense, while only $7 billion will be spent on improving education. The total amount for defense represents an increase of over $6 billion in one year which Ford says is “required to improve readiness of our armed forces and to build up levels of essential equipment and supplies.” This is done, he believes, “in support of our efforts to build an enduring structure of peace in the it’ GET Rl Alft TO SKI f/»n Study in Israel State services. 1' .

Page five �The Who, The Who By Numbers (MCA Records) Midway through one of Pete Townshend’s lead guitar solos you find you’re getting up for a beer, and when you return, you somehow don’t regret having missed the rest of the song. Then you hear Roger Daltrey’s vibrant tenor strike a few notes reminiscent of Tommy or Who's Next? and in your mind you hum the rest of that song, oblivious to what’s coming out of the speakers. That is the only way to describe the absolute mediocrity of this album. The music isn’t bad music the Who are not capable of that. However, there is not one memorable song on any of the ten tracks on the album. It seems as though the Who, perhaps pressed for time and forced to get out an album, hurriedly released this anthology of unfinished — tunes and unpalatable messages. The album opens with “Slip Kid,” a good enough rock roll raunch with fine vocal harmonies and a driving ’n slips. guitar. After “Slip Kid” the album does just that No kidding. There is a bit of comic relief in this tragedy with the song “Squeeze Box,” supposedly about an (“Momma’s got a squeeze box, Daddy never accordion sleeps at night”). Again, hope is rekindled with “Imagine A Man,” in which Daltrey gently caresses the lyrics which strain to have some coherent meaning. Despite his - - attempts, the song falls flat with a terribly aggravating and awkward middle eight, a five-note scale written in about five minutes. Again, a half-finished song. Side two offers an unimpressive track, “Successive Story” written by bassist John Entwhistle, which has a Rolling Stones type riff and wholly unintelligible lyrics. The weak message “stay young and stay high” is about the strongest statement on the album, conveyed in the occasionally moving “They Are All In Love.” Townshend Red tries on the costume of a simple balladeer in “Bluesyrup He spreads the tight. is a the fit little Grey” and and a bit too thick, and when he offers us the half-hearted confession, “I love every minute of the day,” one gets the feeling he wrote the song for a TV commercial for a do tampon.

Throughout the decade The Supremes continued to hit. coming up with fourteen number one national hits, an unprededented achievement for a female group. In The Supremes, Diana always stood out from the other girls with her abundant charisma and unique style of singing performing.

After going as far as she could in I he Supremes, Diana left the group in 1970 to pursue a solo career. Her solo records sold in “supreme” style and her concert performances were stellar. To further expand her talens, she got into movies. In 1972, Diana starred in the modern classic l.udy Sings The Hines and now in 1975 we’re entertained with Mahnv""' Page six . The Spectrum . Monday, 17 November 1975 Though Lady Ross only exercizes her vocal chords lor one song in Mahogany ; the score, produced and arranged by Motown’s own Michael Masser. leaves nothing to be desired. The music is simply beautiful. The theme song, “Do You Know Where You’re Going To?”, by Diana compares with the best of her repertoire. Her voice is capable of any song, whether it be a slow MOR ballad, a hard-rocker, you name it, and making it work. She might very well be the greatest female singer we’ve ever known Her potential is limitless and talents astronomical. Michael Masser, in the film’s score, created the perfect theme for a love story, which is basically what Mahogany is. The melodies and arrangements reflect the theme and re-inforce its message. The orchestration by Masser and Gil Askey is breathtaking. There are really no negatives about Mahagony. Mahogany is not only the name of a brilliant new movie; it’s also the title of a masterful score. -Steven Brief! �Our Weekly Reader Janet Hitchman, Such a Strange Lady A Biography of Dorothy L. Sayers Harper & Row, (hardcover, S8.9 5) For a book of only 174 pages and no index, Such a Strange Lady has been receiving quite a lot of critical attention. Recently, : the New York Times called it a “marvelously good read.” This is not difficult to understand, considering the revival of interest in Lord Peter Wimsey and his creator, Dorothy L. Sayers. The Wimsey craze can be accounted for the by successful BBC dramatizations that were recently popular on educational American TV. But how ' many people generally read a detective novel and find themselves consumed with curiosity about its author? And yet this has been the case for Dorothy L. Sayers. The novels have always found sufficient readers to delight in their rampant snobbery, specious pseudo-satire, and esoteric banality; there will always be readers willing to return to the books for their brilliantly eccentric plotting, and highly imaginative and comic-grotesque murder conceits. Yet truly, the reason people are interested in Dorothy L. Sayers is not because of the Wimsey revival, or a sense of curiosity about the peculiarities of style and taste in the author of such books, but because she is not a man and writes detective novels. There are some people who would argue that this is sufficient reason to be interested in Sayers. After all, the detective field has been cluttered with male writers and successful female novelists who are allowed to publish - let alone become popular are quite rare. (Similar arguments have been rMde about Leni, Eva, and Indira.) So if you would be interested in Sayers because of the orientation of her genitalia and her occupation, or better, the combination of the two, then you will find this book “a marvelously the biography about the author of the detective novels. I considered conducting an imaginary interview with Janet Hitchman. 1 would have asked her why, when she had no access to Sayer’s most personal papers, no assistance from family, close friends, or executors, did she decide to write the book. But I knew she would answer that it was only an “introduction” in lieu of a more substantive work which will be written in the future. I would have asked her how she could be so absurdly prissy as to write: “For most girls the early teens are restless times. Things are happening which are difficult to understand... (p.lll) and yet, several pages later to make quick, shocking transitions from: “It was as if she were saying, I must love Christ, for there is no one else,’” to “Later on she was to renew her friendships with some of her . . . Oxford contemporaries,” to but in spite of her masculine style of dress, which became more pronounced as she grew older, there is no evidence that she was ever in love with a woman." (P 25) Ms. Hitchman would probably answer that I simply could not understand these things, or that “ me. I they were not important to would ask her why so much of the book seems devoted to descriptions Hitchman’s and impressions of the sights, smells, and sounds that Dorothy L. Sayers might have perceived, but which Hitchman assuredly did experience in her attempts to walk in the “footsteps of the great.” I would implore here to explain why so many passages seem to sound like this one: of this!

Also, she had to deal with the awkward fact that Sayers gave up writing the Wimsey books about mid-way in her career in children’s radio life of Christ and controversial translation of order to write plays about the a Dante in contemporary (1940’s British) idiom. Even the supposedly fniitful fact that Ms. Sayers had a child out-of-wedlock was spoiled by the fact that she really never loved the little bugger. But I really wanted to conduct my imaginary new journalistic with interview Lord Peter Wimsey.

Vive New York As President Ford wraps up a three-day summit conference in Paris on the world economy, the economy of his own country 4000 miles away continues to crumble. New York City has but 14 days left to avert default and as serious as the repercussions would be in that event, few people can argue that his adamant refusal to allow the federal government to step in has not already taken its toll. The City of Yonkers, for example, situated in the th'rd wealthiest county in the country, was saved from default at the eleventh hour Friday when the New York State legislature came up with the cash to pay that city's debts. Yonkers may be only several miles outside of New York City, but the problem hits evens closer to home. Buffalo is first beginning to realize, as the City fathers helplessly watch its borrowing capacity go down the drain, that its own municipal bond market is not immune from the effect of an impending default by big brother New York. Ford said late last week that he was "encouraged" by the progress Mayor Beame and Governor Carey were making, but that his position had not changed. Perhaps if New York City decided to call itself Vietnam, U.S.A. or Chile, U.S.A., the President would be more generous. Ford's arrogant attitude towards New York is like that of an angry father punishing his wayward child. But what the child needs is guidance, not punishment. Ford's political games have forced Gov. Carey to make complex provisions for debt reorganization that could do as much harm as good. A proposed $850 million tax increase package for a city and state that are already the most heavily taxed in the nation might serve to accelerate the flight of industry, eroding even further New York's diminishing tax base. Carey also recommended cuts of $500 million in medicaid, a move that would hurt one of the neediest sectors of our society, and a three year moratorium on paying the principal of $1.6 billion in New York City bonds coming due between now and June 30, a serious blow to the many smalltime investors who have thousands of dollars of their savings tied up in bonds. Federal assistance at this time would enable New York City to convert its short-term bonds into long term bonds. Such backing would restore the confidence of investors in New York, as well as cities like Buffalo, and meanwhile, provide the "Big Apple" enough time to thoroughly reassess its situation. In the long run, a New York City default could lead to a default by New York State and its consequences, hasten urban decay in this country and undermine the confidence of the rest of the world. In the short run, eight million people who have already suffered cuts in essential services such as police, fire, health sanitation, welfare and education can look forward to more lay-offs, to more reductions. This year. President Ford bulldozed a $95 billion defense budget through Congress. The United States can probably blow up the world ten times over, yet its government apparently couldn't care less about the people its vast stockpile of armaments is supposed to protect. It's not too late for Ford to change his mind and help bail out the people of New York City. He is after all supposed to serve the people of this country first! ... .. - ' ,, , , . , , - — g/iamp ... ... ...

Editorial policy is determined by the Editor-in-Chief. Page eight. The Spectrum Monday, 17 November 1975 . First, I would like to suggest that Mr. Thiessen become acquainted with the issues he raises. His reference to an “instructor” not having “control of the class” as one of WSC’s arguments for keeping men out, is an obvious lack of comprehension of the nature of those classes. The classes are run on a collective basis with two or three “initiators.” The role of initiators is to keep the discussion moving, to raise questions, and to explain the policies of the College, not to instruct or maintain control. I realize this is a hard concept to grasp. Since the classes are run on a collective basis where women can collectively learn about their histories, bodies, health care, other cultures, other oppressed groups, the nature of our social oppression, and strategies of alleviating ourselves of it, etc., the presence of men would create an unwanted power structure in the group and thus destroy the dynamics of the class. If men, as Mr. Thiessen alleges, are interested in the material of the course and in learning about women, there are 25 other courses touching upon the same issues. Why is there a minimal enrollment of men in those courses? Second and third, women, in general, have trouble discussing problems with anyone since in many cases they have not been responded to and have been forced to internalize those problems. For those whose problems are connected to men, it is hard to relate them to other men. I think it’s very presumptuous on Mr. Thiessen’s part to assume that women do not have experiences which are beyond men’s comprehension. The reverse also holds true I’m sure. This lack of empathy is an offshoot of the different social conditions _we live under and not, 1 repeat not, because women feel “most men are sadistical animals at heart” who “enjoy killing.” Who could possibly belive such crap! Fourth, our courses are not unlawfully discriminating. The administration obviously knows that or they wouldn’t have insisted on the omission of the word “unlawful” from the WSC charter. We’ve spoken to many lawyers who maintain that fact. Mr. Thiessen shows no comprehension of the concept of “affirmative action” which I feel is too lengthy and repetitious a concept to go into here. In conclusion, it is your arguments, Mr. Thiessen that are weak. You should examine the privilege you have over women of your race and class and then tell us we’re oppressing you. First give us equality, then worry about the rest! Monica Neuwirt A student in WSC 360 �New minority Never say die To the Editor To the Editor Bravo! I am writing in support of Mr. Thiessen’s letter in the November 12 issue of The Spectrum entitled “Women More Equal?” It seems that with all of the special job privileges, organizations and opportunities, educational courses designed specifically for so-called "minority” groups, there is a new "minority” forming: The White Anglo-Saxon Male. Thomas C Hafchch Bureaucratic bungling To the Editor jin There was once a time when the feeling on this campus was one of energy, experimentation, daring in a University atmosphere, dynamic in education. This energy bore results that did not come easy: students wanted an alternative education system that would oppose the restrictive, structured education offered by the administration, and the Colleges were born; they wanted a channel in which an individual could further become all that he/she was capable of being, and the “special major” was introduced. Way back when students wanted unions, they were at first told NO. You are here solely to learn. Living and learning are two different things. Well, now there are unions, filled with all kinds of things beneficial to students, that students want, that do not pertain only to their academic education. For today living is an education too, equal to any academic enterprise in which one may participate at the University trying to complete the requirements to be accepted to the Physical I ducation Department I went to see an adviser in the P I Department to ensure that I took the right courses in the spring I he other day I got the news letter from the PT Department. Part of the news letter said that “any student who did not pre-register for courses at the undergraduate meeting on October 2 1, please see Dr. Baker as soon as possible." I did not attend the meeting so I went to see Dr. Baker. I told him that I saw an adviser and that we had worked out the courses I needed for spring. Dr. Baker asked me for the courses. I told him that my adviser had them and there was no need to carry them around with me until pre-registration. He told me to “get my act together" before I came to see him. Me also said I could not see him that day and he would be out the rest of the week. He told me I could see him Monday, the day pre-registration starts for the whole University. There are three questions 1 have after getting the I class.

If we stand by then we all stand together, and are guilty of the consequences., If we stand by, then our voices will finally be silenced, and there will one day be comparisons between the silent students of the fifties and those silent of the seventies. Those students of the fifties sat and watched the U S. government pulverize a tiny country off the map while ultimately slipping a full-scale unannounced war under their noses, and now must live with their silence. 1 wonder what we will have slipped under our noses Shall we do something effective, shall we make our anger known, shall w eget it together']'] Or will we sit back, throw snowballs, and be the ones who have forgotten.

The money would be used to pay rent to the University, thus not being subsidized at the taxpayers’expense. And the University has room to rent, at least at for the Amherst.

Due to its policy of confidentiality, the author, a staff member of Sunshine House, felt that its services could most accurately be portrayed in this luck and said goodbye. 10:45 p.m. Again the phone “Hello, Sunshine House.” For the next 10 minutes all I heard was faint sobbing. Then she manner. spoke. reflect actual 10 p.m. I arrived at Sunshine House to take over for the operator who was completing his shift. Upon entering the House, every operator immediately begins briefing himself on all the latest information. I checked over the client drug information, information, and the many ongoing projects within the House. I noted that next week a group of our staff would be speaking at a local high school on drug abuse and in two weeks, a pair of selected staff members would attend a state-wide Hotline this Studying Conference. — to information added the information that we exchanged at general the bi-weekly House meetings where all relevant topics discussed more specifically and at greater length. The phones are are quiet. Birth control I was working my shift alone. Usually there are two operators on duty. We’re completely student-run and operated and our staff covers a 24-hour day, a seven-day a week period. 10;21 I had just p.m. — completed examining a reprinted article entitled “High Stepping on 1 said. The caller was a young woman seeking general rang. “Please help me, please, I’ve just been raped.” by Paul Taublleb Spectrum Staff Writer LSD” when the phone rang. “Hello, Sunshine House,” - information on birth control. Learning this type of information is an integral part of Sunshine House’s extensive training program. I explained the various methods of birth contro* available, such as the diaphragm, IUD, and Pill, among others. It is the policy of Sunshine House, in all calls, to inform the client of all available information and then let the client make his or her own decision. Rape counselling We discussed the advantages and disadvantages of all methods, such as the benefits of the Pill weighed against its many dangers. 1 also explained that she could receive personalized attention at the University’s Birth Control Clinic. Sunshine House’s referral service suggests various agencies specifically equipped and designed Outreach team The cackle in her voice reflected a deep pain of horror and anguish. My first concern was her physical condition. Though she was in pain, apparently she wasn’t seriously hurt. Immediately after receiving the call and assessing the situation, I contacted Sunshine House’s Rape Outreach Team. All members of Sunshine House receive special training for rape crises. However, certain individuals are specially available to handle rape calls. This team is composed of individuals who have both extensive training and experience in rape counseling, coupled with a dedicated attitude towards helping women who’ve been raped. Within a few minutes the Outreach Team was assembled and rushing towards a phone booth in downtown Buffalo to help the woman who had been assaulted and violated, and who now stood alone and scared, crying in a phone booth. The Outreach Team would deal with her emotional crises, administer preliminary first aid and to the accompany her hospital if she was seriously injured or if she wanted to report the crime and press charges. hello, you know man, I’m OK and all, jus’ saying’ hello. Yeah, jus’ hello.” The words came out slowly and blurred. His voice staggered like a Chippewa St. drunk. At first he wouldn’t tell me what he’d eaten. He thought it was a down, he said. He had a few left so I asked him for a complete description. Aided with the description I began searching our copy of the Physicians Desk Reference (PDR) which lists all pharmacuetical drugs along with a description precise of their probable effects, normal dosages, dangers, medical uses, side effects, etc. He’s eaten four 10 mg. of As the Team hurried downtown I continued talking to the girl, encouraging her to ventilate her feelings, while help was on the way. The Outreach Team arrived and finally Meyer her to accompanied Hospital where she saw a doctor. 11:20 p.m. Things were quiet for a while so I practiced my skills on the emergency medical - equipment. Periodically reviewing emergency skills is part of each staff members’ responsibility and is taken seriously at Sunshine House. Once you become involved in a crisis situation, you need to work quickly and efficiently. Remaining sharp on technical skills is a vital part of the role of a Sunshine House operator. Real man “Hello, Sunshine House.” “High man, real high man, what’s happening? Everything is smooth around here. Definitively smooth really. Jus’ callin’ to say ... .. Maybe tomorrow he’ll wake up feeling a little crusty and raunchy, vaguely remembering a phone call to somewhere or other, not exactly sure where or why. Almost gave up 12:43 The phone began ringing again. As I moved towards answering the phone, I hesitated for a moment, flashing on that severing click that had culminated the last phone call. “Hello, Sunshine House,” I — said. “Is there somebody I can talk to for a while. I feel like giving Sinequin, a strong tranquilizer used for treating psychiatric patients. He’d also had a few beers. up.” “Sure, you can talk to me,” I replied. No threat “Will anybody know that I’m talking to you? I mean, will you tell anybody, will anybody find The amount of Sinequin he’s taken probably did not pose a serious health threat. However the PDR stated that Sinequin’s effect (and dangers) increased multifold when used in conjunction with out?” No, I told her. “All calls to Sunshine House are completely confidential. That is the foundation of all our policies.” The client was a woman named Lisa. Lisa is 26 and a secretary in Buffalo. The first thing she told me was that she felt life probably wasn’t worth living, and that alcohol. Every person’s body reacts differently to drugs and alcohol. He didn’t remember how many beers he had or if he had a few mixed drinks also. He just knew he felt good, but a little worried about being so spaced out and tired. 1 offered to come to where he was. He refused. I explained to him that he was welcome to come to the House. He refused. I explained the potential danger of his situation, pointing out the serious nature of the drugs he had taken in relation to his mental and physical health. He refused to take his own pulse, which is one of the vital signs used in determining a person’s physical state. He was alone, his roommate was gone for the weekend.

I yelled at him to talk about his his girlfriend, mother, or His anything. efforts at conversation were disjointed and had reached my cars like oozing quicksand. I was frantic, trying everything, yet sensing that he was rapidly fading. My counseling skills seemed irreverent as I called out to him to hang on, to tell me everything seemed pointless and worthless. At Sunshine House we to get people to ‘own their feelings,’ not to blame things ‘out there’; what was she that feeling caused this ambivalence? A person in crisis loses touch with their own feelings. At Sunshine House, we try to get the person back in touch with their own feelings. We do this by very carefully listening to what the client is saying and then reflecting it back to them in a positive This non-judgemental way. process is called Active Listening. People will really understand their feelings (own their own feelings) if somebody “Active Listens” to what they’re saying. Once you’ve gotten in touch with your own feelings, things begin to clear up and you’re able to move in a cognizant way towards a solution. Lisa felt estranged from life because of frustration and loneliness. Without realizing this, she blamed the world for her problems, owning them not herself. We spoke at length about her feelings; she was frustrated because she had aspired to a greater career than a secretary and she was lonely, being new in a big feel our role is city, living with only her elderly mother. I only told her what had been implicit in the things she told me. This permitted her both an outlet for venting her pent-up emotions and provided a means for her to understand the situation that was causing her to feel distraught. The call moved from Active Listening to what is called Summarizing and Focusing as we clarified the circumstances of her situation. Then the situation was linked with the feelings she expressed, giving her a clear understanding of what she was feeling and why. For Lisa was for lonely peer-group companionship and frustrated because she was working below we potential. her Next Contracted, by setting up a series of definite steps for Lisa to take to find a solution to her problem. Lisa decided she would go back to night school and finish her degree in English which she abandoned earlier. And she was going to sign up for some art classes on the West Side to meet people her own age.

Who was the leading scorer in the NBA last season, Bob MacAdoo or Rick really Barry?” That was easy. “McAdoo, with 34.6 points per game.” “Thanks,” he said. “I just lost 50 bucks.” 1;59 a.m. One minute more and I’d be going home.

Rubin Sports Editor In this day oT ebbing morals, where pornography is easily accessible, and more and more parts ol the human body are being shown in more and more places, one ol the most recent arrivals on the scene is the parlay card. This fiendish piece oi paper is usually no larger than a dollar bill, but it could payoff hundreds of dollars. The increased availability of the parlay card in recent times has caused concern, criticism and consideration. Moralists claim that gambling is the root ol all evil, and that the parlay card is the fruit of the gambling weed. They claim that the widespread increase in pro sports belling is just another step in the decline of today's society. Other critics argue that the belling card is another ext'ention of organized crime which they tear has spread like cancer through the country. More recently, parlay cards and organized gambling have picked up support. Surprisingly enough, many legislators teel that it they legalize pro sports betting, they will hurl the bookie business which everyone believes is so prevalent, furthermore, these proponents ol belling assert that legalization will bring in sorely needed revenue to whatever group reaps the proceeds. This idea has one veiy interesting implication. If the moralists are right, then the fact that legalized belling is now a possibility implies that our governments are leading the way to moral degradation. But that's only if they're right. They are probably wrong. Kver since the days of the Roman chariot races, people have enjoyed wagering.

Without a doubt, this year’s squad will be the tallest, most experienced and strongest of Richardson’s Buffalo teams. Once again, much will depend on 6-7 sophomore center Sam Pellom. Although he was learning to play center last year (he was a forward in high school), Pellom was the Bulls’ leading rebounder and shot blocker, as well as the second highest scorer. Richardson expects Pellom to be the Bulls’ big rebounder and intimidator again this season. If the front line does its job of rebounding well, it will then be up to Buffalo’s guards to run the fast break, one of Richardson’s favorite offensive weapons. Senior guard Gary Domzalski set the school record for assists while leading the fast break a year ago. Gary also has a good outside shot. Transfer George Cooper averaged over 20 points per game at Nassau CC last year, and poses a strong challenge to mzalski for the job of quarterback. Cooper has the speed which Domzalski lacks, but doesn’t pass quite as well. Buffalo’s other guards also are good offensive players. Otis Horne averaged 17.3 points to lead the Bulls last year, and probably will be counted on again to produce points. His outside shot runs hot and cold, but when he gets hot, watch out he pumped in 38 points in one game last year. Rounding out the backcourf is Larry Jones, a sophomore. Jones has a good shooting eye, and like Horne, can penetrate well. He was leading the junior varsity in scoring when he was called up in mid-season and by the end of the year, Jones was the Bulls’ third guard. — However, Pellom will not have to carry as much of the load as he did last year, because of a vastly improved front line. The Bulls’ starting forwards last season did have enough height, but there were no adequate substitutes on the bench. That problem should be remedied this year, since four of the JC transfers are 6-6. The only returning forward is junior Mike Jones, also 6-6. Jones is a strong rebounder, but his outside shot has been inconsistent. He also doubled as Buffalo’s back-up center last year Boyd best of recruits Perhaps the best of the newcomers at forward is Wayne Boyd. After playing two years at St. John's JC (Kansas). Boyd brings an excellent outside shot and strong rebounding, as well as the ability to drive to the hoop, something Buffalo forwards lacked last year. “He’s probably our best all-around ballplayer,” Richardson said. Another forward from St. John's. Vernell Washington, a very physical ballplayer who is also an excellent jumper, will be counted on for defense and rebounding. Eric Spence, a transfer from Sheridan JC (Wyoming), is the same type of ballplayer as Washington. Either Spence or Washington can play center as well as forward. The Bulls’ other from liners include Sam Robinson, Chris Conlon and Art Garfinkle. Robinson played his junior college ball just miles away at Niagara CC. He, too. is a superb leaper, and owns a good outside shot. Conlon. who “has a lot of potential,” according to Richardson, was the Baby Bulls' leading rebounder, while Garfinkle distinguished himself primarily as a scorer with the JV last Everybody starts Richardson has a pleasant problem in deciding who will start. He has so many talented ballplayers that he predicts ten men will play regularly, a switch from previous years. “We can use one guard or three,” he said. “It doesn’t make a difference.” Richardson’s goal this season is to be invited to some sort of post-season tournament. The EC AC upstate regional tournament is not out of reach for the Bulls, who should improve on last year’s record if nothing else. Although it appears that he has put together the strongest Buffalo team in several years, Richardson also has the Bulls playing their toughest schedule ever. This year, two more Division 1 teams have been added to the schedule: Detroit (19-7 last year) and Indiana State (12 14), plus Sienna, a strong Division II squad. The unofficial season's opener is this Friday night, against the Barbados national team, but it won't be a true lest of the Bulls' strength, since the calibre of the Barbados team is unknown (although their tallest player is only 6-5). On Friday afternoon the Bulls will have their Second Annual TipolT Luncheon, held at the Statler Milton The Barbados team will be the guests of honor, and Stan Barron r f WBLN-AM will be the guest speaker.

Presently, this University is faced with the propsect of commercial development on the Amherst Campus. Yet it is feasible that students be fully incorporated into the planning and operation of in large scale businesses Amherst designed to serve the University community. There is a legal basis for the operation of student business ventures. Student bodies have considered it a right to carry on legitimate student activities long as they comply with the procedural requisites of any regulation governing the use or maintenance of such facilities. In Drucker vs. New York University, a Civil Court case in 1968, it was stated; “The student agrees to pay tuition and in consideration is granted admission which carries with it the right to attend classes and to make reasonable use of school facilities. Such use does not require separate legal authorization and is an implied part of the original statement was used to support the existence of three coffeehouses, a sandwich shop, an ice cream parlor and a record shop, all coops, on the Slate University at Stony Brook campus in 1970. More recently at Stony Brook, a cooperative food service was begun, based on a S5000 loan from the Oberlin College Student Cooperative Association in Ohio.

Housing cooperatives have been active on scores of campuses across North America since early in the 20th Century. The oldest, at Cornell University, has been in existence for 61 years.

Along with its guidelines for the program, the IIIAV report includes information on patterns and growth in educational institutions o\ei the past quarter-century. The report explains that enrollment in colleges and universities rose from two million in 1950 to eight million in 1970. and that over this time-span, the numbers of older students (those between 2> and 37) increased significantly.

The report also cites the need for improvement in the quality of want the programs offered in the educational institutions. “Learners more than knowledge; they want to develop abilities that will permit them to perform effectively in work,” and in their personal lives, it said.

Asked whether or not the Financial Assembly still exists, SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde replied, “We’re not sure. My parlimentarian is researching it." The two Financial Assembly meetings Lalonde has attempted to call both failed to produce a quorum. “The membership has dwindled from 40 to 15,” he said. Lalonde expre.ssed dissatisfaction with the Assembly members' apparent lack of interest on several occasions. He said SA Executive Committee members are just as much at fault as the other members, and that there should be some kind of penalty for members who do not attend the body’s meetings. One more try Senate member John Seigel, who is also a member of the Financial Assembly, pleaded with Lalonde to “give it one more try.” He said he missed one of the meetings because he was not aware it was being held.

Genesee Community College awarded diplomas to six inmates at the Attica Correctional Facility. Four released inmates, not present at the September 27 ceremony, also received diplomas. Genesee has the largest inmate education program in New York State and one of the largest in the country. Speakers at the ceremony included State Correction Commissioner Benjamin Ward, Attica Superintendant Harold Smith. State Assemblyman R. Stephen Hawley, Genesee Community College President Stuart Steiner, and Valedictorian Christopher E. Lynch. Lynch, according to Steiner, gave such a “stirring speech" that copies were later reprinted for anyone who wanted them. The six inmates present at the commencement ceremony were Charles Burks, Charles Buston, DJ. Davis, James M. Latimore. Christopher E. Lynch, and Richard P. Rigwood. Successful program The inmate program, which operates with the lull support ol Superinlendant Smith and a grant from the Department ol Health Education and Welfare, is “very successful” Steiner said, It had its start in January 1973 with a handful of part-time students enrolled in six different courses. At the present. 218 full-time students are enrolled in 35 different courses, academic or career-oriented. Six inmates graduated last year which brings the total to 16. Eligibility requires inmates to have completed high school. In the event the inmate is not a high school graduate, he may lake a remedial program before entering the college program. Inmates carry a 12 or more credit course load and all credits are transferable so that if an inmate is released, he may continue his education in other schools in the SUNY system. In some cases, inmates have gone on to four-year private schools. Although tuition is the full $590 per year, the vast majority ol inmates are receiving Basic Educational Opportunity Giants. Others receive Veterans Benefits and EOF. Coops... the Coop.

Last June, a bill passed the state legislature providing for the operation of commercial businesses on state-owned land. The Amherst Campus contains 70,000 square feet of rental space for business "purposes. Jack Latona, head of the University of Buffalo Foundation Corporation (UBF Corp.) went to Albany today to discuss and between possibly sign the University and the state, so that the available space can begin being leased to interested parties. Construction of buildings can only begin after the contract is signed Cinder block city Rental space in Amherst will be more expensive than in the University Plaza for example, because the buildings must be constructed in the same style as other structures, basically brick and little cinder block. Doug Cohen, SA Director of Activities and Services, said SA is pushing for the admission of students to the UBF Corp. Board of Directors for the simple reason that “students are the largest constituent body.” SA is also seeking a “guaranteed percentage of student employees in non-management positions” in future Amherst Campus stores. Cohen suggested the possibility of training programs for which management majors would receive credit ‘Coops have been suggested to the SA and a committee is looking into it,” could he continued, “but it a dangerous precedent all beneficial to students." Cohen did not elaborate on the set not at John Carter, a member of the UBF Corp.

The original cast of Star Trek will soon begin filming a wide screen movie version of the show, Roddenberry said. “The only snag left is the granting of creative control by the studio.” Roddenberry credited the fans of Star Trek with its revival, noting that Paramount Studios, which owns the creative rights, has been bombarded with mail calling for the return of Star Trek, he said. When the fans learned that the studio was planning to hire a new cast, they poured in letters objecting to the change, Roddenberry added. assured the Roddenberry NBC television audience that executives have guaranteed that if the movie is successful, Star Trek will return to television. Roddenberry criticized network executives as being short-sighted and lacking the courage to explore the medium by presenting Innovative He said the .programming. “executives” originally wanted to the female executive replace officer of the Starship, Enterprise, with a male and eliminate “the guy with the funny ears because no one will be able to identify with him.” Also, the network was going to change the original composition of the Enterprise crew, which was 50% male, 50% female. “It looks like there’s a lot of fooling around in space,” Roddenberry said. Third stage Turning to regarding the his theories medium of tele-communications and the evolution of man, Roddenberry believes we are at the beginnings of the third great evolutionary stage. The first great steps forward were the emergence of life about two billion years ago, and the emergence intelligence of self-conscious .about 1 QQ.000 years ago. The third step, according to Roddenberry, is evolving out of the increased technological development of the human race in the fields of computers, electronics, space travel and genetics. Roddenberry perceives* a near when receivers will be implanted in all people which can be tuned in to computers and give them access to all human knowledge. Roddenberry also sees future a future when all that will remain of human beings is their consciousness with no physical body of flesh and blood. Roddenberry warned of a “new life form” that is becoming more powerful at the expense of humans. This “animal” he called the “socio-organism” and used Gulf Oil, ITT and the United States as examples. Roddenberry fears for the future of individuality, stating that the highly independent strong, individual might take the role of a cancer cell in this r"* steak SBreiv Eating A Drinking Put ALL THE BEER.

Roddenberry concluded with a warning to be wary of this tele-communications explosion. “Commercial television, as it is today, is an advertising medium and the choice of what you can watch is made solely on the basis of the saleability of products,” he said. Tele-communication has the potential for any human being to have access to the sum of all human knowledge, he added. Rodden berry’s presentation was preceded by a “blooper” reel of all the funny antics and mistakes that were made on the Star Trek set.

Douglas This past Thursday witnessed the denouement of one of the longest, most illustrious judicial careers in history William 0. Douglas, a man whose personal philosophy embodied an ongoing distrust of government, was forced to step down from the nation's highest Court becauase of failing health On Monday evening Nov. 10, 1975, I was officially declared to be a racist. The United Nations, a once-proud institution, has become nothing more than a cesspool on the Hudson, in an ignominious and vicious assault on the liberation movement of a people who are not strangers to the whims of hatred and genocide. In solemn convocation a motley crew of assorted Arab oil blackmailers led by the “moderate” Sadat, fascist dictatorships exemplified by the Franco regime, bullying communist countries and assorted third world countries whose “democratic” governments have the life span of the common house fly in July, gathered together to gang rape the State of Israel on a world stage, in the sight of all, with no shame. In 30 years of existence the U.N. has not witnessed such a perfidious, odious and shameful act as that which branded Zionism as racism. Today the U.N. stands clearly, shamefully and inescapably as a defender and proponent of anti-Semitism. It has not lost any vestige, any semblance of ethics or morality it may have had left. You thought, maybe Hitler was dead? Well he lives on, in the twisted minds of men he’s only “moderately” for Jewish like Sadat genocide; Assad, Arafat, Brehznev, Franco, Indira (democracy’s gift to India) Gandhi and of course, Uganda’s butchering Bib “Dada” Idi Amin (you remember him he threw Uganda’s Asians out but - Sadly, Douglas' retirement marks the end of an era which began 36 years, 7 months ago during the Roosevelt he ain’t no racist!)

I spit on the U.N. and its damnable, excremental resolution. I scream bloody murder to the heavens in revulsion and 1 ask my fellow Jews and fair minded Christians to wake up and join the battle because battle we must. The world has thrown down the gauntlet; it has spit in the eye of the Jewish people and has said, “All people are entitled to their - liberation movements” (but the Jews). All “liberation movements” are inherently just and deserving of the support of “enlightened” people (except the liberation movement of the Jewish people). The Jewish people have been to Hell and returned. We have survived pogroms, inquisitions, “genteel” anti-semitism and the ultimate honor of the Holocaust.

Douglas has been an outspoken To the Editor defender of First Amendment rights, seeing very little I recently (20 minutes ago) read the letter criticizing the conduct of Blue-Bird drivers. Criticism is,essential, but I think reassurance to the drivers and clarficiation to the students is required. First, this is to those people that expect a bus to stop while if is pulling away. The bus is not required to stop for you, in fact he is breaking “rules” if he does. Anyone that has ever ridden a city bus knows that it will not stop at other than designated stops. If you are not at the bus stop, on time, then it is your fault. When the driver passes you by in the loop or tunnel, don’t complain because he’s not doing you a justification for intervention government to control obscenity. The libertarian views expressed in his numerous dissents, of many disappear. Some stood which will probably alone, of the more controversial issues the Supreme Court must face in the coming months include deciding the constitutionality of the death penalty, whether favor. Students have no right to expect a driver to risk a job warning just because the student was late. Drivers do you a favor when they do stop. Secondly, the driver’s ability. On the whole, I don’t think there is much room for criticism here either.

The driver of bus no. 259 has a name, which is Sal Tedesco. I have been at this school one year and a half, during which time I have used Mr. Tedesco’s bus quite frequently. Out of all the drivers on that route, I have found him to be one of the most courteous, nicest drivers which I have had contact with (as opposed to “malicious intent” and the “obvious pleasure he took in his behavior”). Now for his driving. Mr. Tedesco does not crawl at a snail’s pace (as “some of our drivers do), nor does he play speed racer. I am wary of riding in the rain as I have been involved in two car accidents (I was not driving). Yet, unlike this person, I feel quite secure using Mr. Tedesco’s bus. One last note; many bus drivers devise their own schedules. They leave when they like, earlier or later. I have never had this problem with this bus driver.

These drivers seem to know exactly how much room they have and just how fast to go. I have found drivers very helpful. They will stop when they don’t have to, often without a “thanks” or a thought.

Friday, 14 November 1975 To the Editor Schussmeisters Ski Club has undergone many changes this year, the biggest of which was our decision to cut all ties with Kissing Bridge Ski Area. There has been much controversy over the matter since the decision was made. If you’re such a stuffed-shirt that you’ll ski Kissing Bridge and nowhere else, then chances are the ski club doesn’t really need you. If you simply like to ski, but you don’t know what kind of a deal you’ll be getting this year, I ask that you listen to our reasons. I’ve heard too many people say “1 can’t understand why they’re not skiing Kissing Bridge; I’m not joining!” It has always been Schussmeisters policy to allow the immediate family of our members to join. Kissing Bridge would no longer allow us to do so. This would effect, in particular, married couples of which only one of the two is affiliated with the University. Bluemont Ski Area will permit us to maintain our policy concerning family members. The main conflict, however, was over price. Kissing Bridge’s original proposal was to increase our costs by 80 percent. After negotiations they came down to a 67 percent increase. Since the Ski Club’s main purpose is to provide skiing for the University community at a reasonable rate, we decided Kissing Bridge no longer met our needs. We believe that Bluemont Ski Area will meet our needs. Thus far, the proprietors have been very cooperative in working with our officers. They’re actually quite happy to receive our business. As for the area itself: Bluemont is smaller than Kissing Bridge in that there are fewer runs. The runs at Bluemont are a bit longer and steeper, though They have installed more snow-making equipment, better lighting, and a new chairlift which will accommodate more people than before. All in all, 1 believe that Schussmeisters Ski Club is still the best ski package around. I would advise any skier, no matter what his ability, to join Schussmeisters for a great deal and a great time. Karen Scholz �Our Weekly Reader I Vincent Bugliosi with Curt Gentry, Helter Skelter, Bantam, 1975 (paper) About two years ago former Yippie and current aspiring poet Ed Sanders took us inside Charlie "family" Manson's book entitled, with a Family. The Now Manson appropriately enough case prosecutor Vincent Bugliosi has given his view of the case, from a somewhat different perspective in Helter Skelter, another aptly titled book just out in paperback. (The $10.95 hardcover edition was a bestseller this time last year.) "Helter Skelter" was the title of a Beatles song Charles Manson interpreted to mean there would be a global race var which would leave him ruler of the world. Written as a loose diary of events, Helter Skelter tells of the murders of Sharon Tate and four others in the early hours of August 9, 1969 and of the seemingly-unrelated murders of Leno and Rosemary LaBianca the following night murders which sent the well-to-do of Los Angels into a frenzy. We learn what the police did to solve the murders and more importantly what they didn't do. For instance, the Tate and LaBianca detectives did not confer about — links until the LaBianca case was nearly solved on its own of a young boy (trained by TV's "Dragnet") who found a pistol in his backyard and was careful to pick it up by the barrel so as not to smudge fingerprints. When local police came to pick up the gun (later identified as one of the murder weapons) one officer obliterated every print on it by We learn handling it carelessly. The same weapon sat in the Van Nuys police department through most of the Tate investigation because the Los Angeles Police Department forgot to send a notice calling for the relatively rare weapon. (They were thorough enough however, to send the 200 other enforcement agencies.) notice to police departments and law We find out how, after massive bungling by the LARD, the case was broken when Susan Atkins got the details of her assorted murders mixed up while being questioned for an unrelated killing. Valley, away from radio Out in Death television, and for the most part newspapers Manson's peculiar theories could hit his disciples with full force His ideas: as prophesized by the Beatles' White Album, the murder of wealthy whites (believed to be killed by blacks) would precipitate a race war (which would be won by the blacks). All the whites on earth killed, except for a small band who Manson into the desert to await the outcome. Eventually the blacks realizing their incompetence would seek out Manson to run the would be followed world for them The killings of Tate and the LaBiancas were blacks (Manson muffed it) and thus set off Helter Skelter. To be on the safe side, meant to be tied to Manson and his followers equipped dune buggies with large gas tanks so they could go 1,000 miles without a refill in case of a quick conflagration. Bughosi discusses the trial both the difficulties in getting the prosecution case together and the difficulties in keeping the trial itself together In any prosecution if the district attorney (or D.A, in this case) hopes to obtain a conviction, he must present credible witnesses and convincing circumstantial evidence. While there was a profusion of the latter witnesses to mass murder in isolated places (both the Tate and LaBianca houses were some distance from other houses) are often difficult to find. The prosecution got a lucky break when ex Family member Linda Kasabian decided to (She had been along on both nights of testify murder without otherwise taking part.) Bugliosi had to convince the jury that Kasabian was somehow different from the other accused murderers that Manson masterminded the Tate murders without being present, and that the others were guilty of assistant first-degree murder as well In the middle of the trial then President Nixon declared Manson was guilty and Bugliosi had to go to elaborate lengths to prevent a mistrial. (Among other things, he taped paper over the windows of the bus carrying jurors so they wouldn't be able to see headlines on newspapers at corner newsstands.) The defendants were convicted and given the death penalty but were saved when the Supreme Court threw out the death sentence in 1971. Manson up for parole in and four others are D D » 1978 but Bugliosi doesn't think they will be on the outside for a long long time. The strength of this book is its attention to details: it provides a readable clinical account of the case. The particularly chronological effective in organizing principle talking about such is a —continued on page 8— m K f 4 � �Our Weekly Reader |{ Bugllosl himself seems to have transcended the conventional role of prosecutor (a simple-minded proponent of law 'n order at all costs) and instead restrains himself to present a more complete (and therefore sympathetic) view of Manson. We are shown a “completely institutionalized individual" who had spent more than half his life up to the time of the killings behind bars (17 out of his 33 years). Bugliosi recalls that Manson pleaded not to be released from jail when a term for auto theft ran out in 1967. Bugliosi reflects on the psychological puzzle that was Manson, speculating that Manson's father was probably a black man and that Manson was obsessed by this fact. He draws the obvious parallel to Hitler who was rumored to be obsessed with the thought of a possible Jewish ancestry and who devised elaborate racial theories to mask this fact. But it is precisely this analytical character which flaws the book. Its authoritative tone justifies some nonsense; for instance, Bugliosi relates the story of an apparent attempt to murder a prosecution witness with a hamburger laced with a fatal dose of LSD — 'Abduction based on book predating Patty by Dean — ... yet he admits a few pages later that there is no such thing as a fatal dose. In other instances, Bugliosi is weighed down by - complex chain of events Oncfinally porno —continued from page 7 the fact that he was the prosecutor. He is unwilling Manson entirely from the politics of the Counterculture, though he makes persistent and unconvincing attempts to do so. In a more lyrical book like Ed Sanders' the Family, every detail is introduced to impart a feeling for where Manson and his followers were coming from; In Heiter Skelter every detail emerges, inevitably, from the attempt to prosecute, not understand. But while Sanders is free from the socially restrictive role of a prosecuting attorney, he manages to convey in The Family a passionate something Bugliosi never hatred for Manson to separate — manages to do. And that is basically where it stands now: Bugliosi wrote the better historical account of the Manson case, but Sanders wrote the better book, —Mike McGuire * Mike McGuire Spectrum is * * * * a Contributing Editor for The Billanti Spectrum Arts Staff Far more interesting than the movie Abduction is its background.

The producers of the present film bought the book and made a porno movie out of it. But as dubious luck would have it, the Hearst case developed and the moviemakers decided to cash in on it.

Her kidnappers are two male revolutionaries, who take her to a house containing two female revolutionaries (one of the women speaks in such a deadpan that one is surprised Patricia doesn't fall asleep during her revolutionary raps).

The problems were two fold and insurmountable: the unsuitability of the theater and the steadfast pointlessness of the script.

About three centuries later, Frank Dunlop and Jim Dale singled out the adventures of the endearing con artist Scapin as the perfect raw material for Dunlop's London based Young Vic Company to tackle Their modern adaptation was renamed Scapinof and rearranged to include assorted songs, one-liners, and swings from the ceiling A huge success both in London and in New York (Clive Barnes unequivocally stated that "if you miss it, you will be crazy"), their harassed lovers, stingy fathers, and rubber sausages were catapulted onto the Studio Arena stage last Friday night for the first time in a month of - — performances. Scapino!, like Moliere's Scapm, is a manipulator, a puppeteer who pulls the strings that make the other characters jump, a "faithful servant" whose biggest reward for helping his masters out of their numerous predicaments is the pleasure of watching them make fools or just as our reward is heroes out of themselves according to his whim the delight of observing the true virtuoso at work He plays many roles, not the least of which is that of the craftsman who shapes his fellows' destinies; Moliere, whose first love was acting, created the part for himself, and his analogy is perfect. John Chrsitopher Jones, Studio Arena's Scapino, lacks the comic virtuosity his role demands; he is often overshadowed by such players as Tom Mardirosian, who registers indignation by causing his cheeks, jowls, and nostrils to puff like three separate sets of bellows (a pretty impressive feat in itself) and MordeCai Lawner, with his chrome helmeted (and chrome headed) punk of a motorcyclist But Jones does have the con man's charm and wit m abundance; even though the puppets occasionally manage to snatch away the strings, the puppeteer has the grace to rise above the situation. Unfortunately, Scapmof, with its asides to the audience and final (and totally irrelevant) play along number just after the curtain call, asks for a level of audience involvement that the opening night crowd just couldn't seem to handle. A good percentage of SAT-goers often the old seem to be more interested in theater as dress up Event than in the play itself; See and Be-Seen at-the-Opening syndrome they expect the actors only to allow them to sit back and absorb a A little culture, the key words here being "sit back" and "absorb certain amount of contempt for all us non professionals out here was in evidence among the cast, particularly during Jones' ad libbed ending but at least one segment of the audience has long deserved to feel as silly as it probably did Although the gymnasitcs could have been both a bit more polished and slightly less emphatic, Grover Dale's direction was generally excellent.

Studio Arena s latest offering far surpassing at least the scheduled to run through December 6 and it's good, light holiday fare (great for playwright's record that heavy turkey).

Be attending Class of Friday, 14 November 1975 . The Spectrum , Page nine �University Opera Studio Chamber opera is a distinct success always interesting, if not entirely Student recitals are successful. An audience that includes your teacher and your immediate peers can bring out the mediocre in any performer. This was not the case last Friday afternoon when I dropped in on a piano students recital in Baird Hall. Ren Jen Wang was the first performer, playing Rachmaninoff's finger busting Variations on a Theme of Corelli. That she handled Rachmaninoff's considerable technical demands (minus a couple pauses) is quite an achievement, but that she made musical sense of all those notes is remarkable. Next on the program was Paula Kopstick's reading of Beethoven's Sonata in F Major, Op. 54 It was a deliberate, warm performance that might have benefited from more variation in color. The program closed with Elbe Schults' performances of Ravel's Jeux d'Eaux and Liszt's Paganini Etude No. 4 The Ravel was notable for its precious equilibrium of the linear and atmospheric aspect of the score, no mean task. The Liszt was technically respectable but musically somewhat bland. In all fairness, Liszt's piano music leaves me cold, so my opinion should be devalued. Opera is singing Not to be devalued was the University Opera Studio's production of Richard Strauss' chamber opera, Ariadne on Naxos, presented last weekend at the Shaw Festival Theater, Fully explaining the plot would simply take too long, but essentially it is an opera mixed with a burlesque, all within an opera. The performance was, on the whole, a distinct success Particularly effective were Robert Winkler's sets and atmospheric projections. Equally strong was the staging by Muriel Hebert Wolf, especially clever in the Intermezzo. Carlo Pinto's direction of the orchestra was effective though Strauss really demands a virtuoso orchestra which was not in the pit. Opera is singing (a singer once told me). The singing in this opera was on a generally high level. Jeanette Hall-Wood as Ariadne started somewhat harshly but smoothed out and maintained her intensity for an excellent performance. Jane Bane's Zerbmetta, a role calculated to bring down the house, did just that. Her intonation, agility and generally ample voice, along with conscientious acting, made her one of the evening's highlights. Ellen Lang contributed perhaps the smoothest, most musical performance of the night in her role as the composer. In Soo Park's tenor was as solid and strong as his character (Bacchus) demands -Kerby Lovallo Everything considered, a distinct success.

Page eleven �fe Andy Fairweather Low, La Booga Rooga (A&M) With a name like Andy Fairweather Low, you know the music is bound to be weird. Weird it is, as La Booga Rooga encompasses music quite unlike typical American rock 'n roll. La Booga Rooga in three simple words is simply time music,” which means kick off your boots and as he puts it on a song called "Grease It Up," "get down and grease it up." To further differentiate this album from anything that one might have heard' before, the "good music on this album could most accurately be considered 1930's and 1940's swingtime. There is even a Clarence William tune called "My Bucket's Got A Hole In It" which was written in 1933. It is typical of the other songs on the album. In closing, even though there are a couple of totally obnoxious tunes and the, album does have a monotonous tone to it, this album is definitely a nice change of pace from what one is normally accustomed to. "You can even swing to it!" -G. Maltz \ Spirit, Son of Spirit (Mercury) our adolescence are populated groups The that to the cash trying magic recapture and and reforming dividends of their heydays. A cursory glance of 60's splinter groups now out for the second time around reveal the likes of Steppenwolf, Quicksilver, the Beau Brummels and Spirit. Spirit was a vibrant rock band whose music, while never unique, was quite capable of an inspired, derivative sound. Tracks like "I Got a Line on You" and the slick production sleight of hand of the Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus are apt examples. Flowever the refurbished Spirit is just a zombie-like impostor and a ghost of its former self. The current Spirit line-up is in the form of a power trio, consisting of Randy California, Ed Cassidy and Barry Keene. Any three man musical organization must playing possess a technical virtuosity and transcends the limitations imposed cohesiveness that by the power trio format. The Jimi Hendrix Experience and Cream had that ability but Spirit definitely does not. Randy California's vocals are of the Rex Harrison My Fair Lady school of talking lyrics. If you're in desperate need of a chuckle, listen to California butcher "Yesterday." Ed Cassidy remains one of the better bald drummers in rock. Lyrically the compositions are aimed at a fourth grade level while the redundant musical ideas are attired with echo and other masking effects in a vain attempt to gloss over the lack of substance. Son of Spirit fs a dud. For certain things once is not enough but in the case of Spirit once is certainly enough. Hopefully Son of Spirit will terminate the family lineage, if not, it's time for a mercy killing. May Spirit finally rest in peace. C.P. Parkas The Ozark Mountain Daredevils, The Car Over The Lake Album (A&M) With the scourge of Southern rock bands attacking the record racks, up comes another one, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils, already down for one hit single, "Jackie Blue." Their newest album, The Car Over The Lake Album, has just arrived with media hype and a truckload of bland much country-rock potential singles. I hate to say it, but this album is a letdown and carries nothing unique. Every cut, except one, is no longer than four minutes and there is no time for showcasing talents. The Daredevils produce a very country sound with a touch of Little Feat boogie. But it is hard to distinguish one song from the other, since they all have the same slow or country rock beat. The boys harmonize nicely but the material and arranging don't provide the framework to show it. "Jackie Blue'-' was a catchy tune from the previous album and deserved hit single status but there's nothing on this new one that comes near it. What probably should emerge from this album is the best cut on the album, "Thin Ice," which has a nice hook and an unusual bass line. who it all on Dave Anderle Blame Page twelve Spectrum . the whole mess. If he wants a which the Daredevils may someday Grade-A band, be, he'd better start putting the proof out. If the Daredevils are led right, they could achieve the popularity they're anxious for. —Drew Kerr underproduced Urszula Dudziak, Urszula (Arista) There's no getting around the fact that Urszula Dudziak has a remarkable voice. Her range and spatial quality enable her to use this voice as a musical instrument, rather than as a compliment to a piece of music. Even so, her first solo album has an air of "gimmickry" about it. It seems like Urszula is trying to cash in on the success of her hubby, Michael Urbaniak, though she is an integral part of his achievement Much of this album is electronic. The song "Funk Rings" consists solely of Urszula singing staccato up and down scales into a synthesizer. The lack of musical quality in this song and "Zavinul" is appalling. In fact, the arrangements on most of the Urbaniak) leave much to be Electronics cannot be substituted for quality. Transistors have no emotion, and music without some sort of "feeling" tends to become album (by Michael desired. repetitive Two bright spots make this album almost worth buying. "Papaya" would be appropriate at a moon launching. The light, lilting quality of this song makes one want to get up and fly. The melody is beautiful, and the harmony between Urszula's voice and her backup group is just right. Gerald Brown on drums and Basil Fearrington on bass are especially good. "Just the Way You Are" is a very sensuous song. It is a musical orgasm, and it is obvious that Urszula is a very satisfied woman. Fusion III is Michael Urbaniak's last album It combines the best of Urszula Dudziak's voice with some excellent jazz. It is a much better sample of jazz-rock than Urszula. It's evident that much more work and time was spent on it than on Urszula Dudziak's first solo album Buy Fusion III and you'll be getting the "real thing." Don't buy Urszula, or —Steven Ashenfarb you'll be getting "taken." Henry McCullough, Horse) Mind Your Own Business (Dark In Mind Your Own Business. Henry McCullough makes his vinyl debut with George Harrison's record company, Dark Horse. McCullough's biggest problem on the album seems to be a lack of anything new or different. McCullough sings and writes almost everything on the album, but he lacks a style of his own, borrowing liberally from others. McCullough's voice is nasal, and lacks depth and range. While his singing style brings Leon Russell to mind, his voice sounds thin and weak in comparison. His compositions and arrangements are patterened too much after those by Garcia. McCullough is backed by a long list of studio musicians who do a decent job. In fact, the album's most distinguishing feature is some fine keyboard work by Tim Hinkley and Mick Weaver. The musicians mesh well, if not spectacularly They tend to help carry McCullough's weak vocals and song similarity with the variety of instrumentation. The best parts of this album are where McCullough lets go and does a bit of boogying on songs like "I Can Drive A Car” and "Mind Your Own Business." On songs which are slower and require more from the vocalist, McCullough falls short. His voice lacks the strength and expression to carry these SHARE THE RIDE WITH US THIS THANKSGIVING AND GET ON TO A GOOD THING.

This album may well appeal to those who enjoy the country influenced rock of the Grateful Dead. It is not a bad album, but not an especially good one, either. Perhaps most characteristic of the album as a whole is "Baby What You Do To Me." This is not a bad song, but is rather unimpressive. McCullough's vocals are muddled and thin sounding. The song is dressed up a bit with some nice horn work and into a nice, rollicking tune. McCullough draws it out too long, however, and the repetition becomes monotonous, as does the whole album. -Dan Hegeman develops Friday, 14 November 1975 Ask your agent about additional departures and return trips.

Earlier, another graduate student from our department wrote in response to some pretty shaky and damaging assumptions about faculty members’ motives in the recent controversy. Your paper interpreted the faculty’s unwillingness to spill the guts of the department all over your headlines as a cover for racism and opportunism. Now, you move your speculations from the editorial pages to a “news” article, when in fact there is no more truth to the charges of personal ambition now than there was last month. I happen to know that the reporter responsible for this story was informed in an Fair chance interview with a faculty member that the not controversy centered upon educational issues on a power grab by self-aggrandising faculty members. The reporter obviously chose to ignore this information and report his own views instead. We all hope that the headline of Friday’s article will become a reality and that the department can settle its differences and move ahead to become the dynamic program that the chairman intends. I’m sure that Dr. Asanti and the faculty would like to move on in a spirit of cooperation If your paper will refrain from printing devisive and damaging myths concerning our department you will ease our work Coop To the Editor This business of the Record Coop closing is just another example of Ketter’s attitude towards the students of the University and his attitude towards this University as a whole. He views our school as a group of buildings and not as an institution of higher education. What he is trying to set up here is a captive camp for consumers. I would like to state that I did not come here to fill the pockets of Buffalo’s businessmen. 1 came here for an education! I did not come to Buffalo, I came to the State University at Buffalo. A university should be a closed system that has the ability to meet most student needs. Not only should there be a record coop but there should be a pizza coop, a food coop, an entertainment coop, a sub coop, and a coop to meet every student need for every student with a valid ID. The prices in the on-campus sub shops should not be so high and rich with profit as to drive us off-campus for a bigger sub at a smaller price. The same is true for the book store and most every other campus monopoly. University costs are too high and a student’s income is too low for us to be made bait for Ketter and his “business-like friends. considerably. 1 Speech Communication Graduate Student for women To the Editor. This is in response to the person telling tall tales about the ERA, written in The Spectrum, Nov. 12th. If you Mr. Thiessen, have ever had the opportunity to study women, then you might know something about Women’s Studies. Secondly, just as women have private lives, they also have their private parts. But sometimes they wish not to discuss their private lives (or parts). Why can’t you understand this? Being six-foot-six, you seemed to have overlooked the problem. I’m sure you as well, have problems, etc., that you would not want to discuss in the company of women. for everything You exemplify one of today’s foremost problems. There are too many bigots running around, whether they be racist or chauvinist Why don’t you open your eyes and mind, and give everyone a fair chance. It’s people like yourself who force women to generalize into saying Male Chauvinist Pig, when they should be saying Man Chauvinist Pig. Women have their place in society as do men and until, you realize this Mr. Thiessen, you just might spend many lonely nights. We hope it’s a cold winter. ’’ Mike Niman Two men that do care. Jeff Van Praag Dave Weiteman Business men poem by Regional prejudice To the Editor Not City.” I have read the letter “Save SUNY In this letter Bernard Brothman proved he was literate, but not very well informed. The two major points of his letter were: A. CUNY (City University of New York) is supported by state taxes. B. New York City drains an unfair portion of State funds through mismanagement. The answers to these charges are simple. In addition to paying State and Federal taxes. New York City residents also pay city taxes. It is this money that is used to maintain CUNY. Little if any money from the State is used in CUNY. Anyway, if the City defaults this practice will be ended, so why bring up the point? I agree that some city employees are over paid. But 1 don’t see how this saps state revenues. Over 43 percent of the state population lives in New York. And if the people who live in Westchester and Nassau Counties are added to this, I have a strong suspicion that over 50 percent of the people in the - state derive their income from the City. For New York City to be a drain on the state, over 50 percent of state funds would have to go to the City. And I have never heard of a year that happened. So in effect, New York state is a drain on the City. The thing that bothers me is your litter (not letter). I detected a strong overtone of regional prejudice. If New Yorkers don’t realize that people in New York City are New Yorkers then this state is in bad shape. We have to stick together or else we are dead meat. We are the richest state in the country, mostly because of New York City. We also form 8.2 percent of this country’s population. Ford is using regional prejudice against New York state and City to win support for his campaign. If the state, and as a result SUNY, goes down with New York City, don’t blame the City, blame Ford forplaying the game of public opinion. The residents of New York City pay City, state and federal taxes. In return New York City and state gets the end of a very pointy stick in the eye.

Correction: In an article appearing Wendesday, November 12, entitled “Ignored Affirmative Action,” an account was given of a resolution by the College Council which opposed early reviews of Colleges by the Colleges Chartering Committee. Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg was then quoted as saying he did not see the reviews as improper at this time. It should be made clear that Spitzberg’s comments were made before the Council meeting, and not in response to it, as the article would seem to imply. Friday, 14 November 1975 . The Spectrum .

Rubin Coach Ed Michael’s wrestling Bulls will face their toughest schedule ever this year. With the losses Upsets were the rule last week as the Wizard slipped to an 8-5 mark. Nevertheless, his seasonal log still maintains its air of respectability at 73-31 (.702), despite a 2-6 record in games involving Buffalo. San Francisco 26, Chicago 20. ’49’ers and Bears both pulled upsets last week, but San Francisco has been coming on all year long. Oakland 42, Cleveland 10. There really is no need for this game to be played, but Oakland does need to maintain its edge in the AFC West. Dallas 23, New England 1 7.- Cowboys haven’t had a good game since they beat the Giants five weeks ago, but Steve Grogan won’t be able to figure out crafty Dallas secondary. Denver 26, San Diego 10. Chargers have to keep pace with Cleveland in order to clinch number one draft pick. Detroit 17, Green Bay 10. This will be a good old fashioned black and blue division struggle, but Lions won’t be upset in their new home at Pontiac. Pittsburgh 27, Kansas City 17. Steelers did it last week without Mean Joe Greene and should cruise again this week. Not even the Chiefs can upset three of last year’s playoff teams in one season. Los Angeles 28, Atlanta 10. Rams rebound after last week’s upset loss to San Francisco. Falcons on their way to another season in oblivion. Houston 2ft, Miami 21. Both of these teams have been surprisingly strong so far. But while Dolphins can now cruise to AFC East title, Floustori has an uphill battle for a wild card berth. Flome edge pushes Oilers over the top. Minnesota 35, New Orleans 6. If there is a sillier game this week than Oakland-Cleveland, this has to be it. But watch out next week when San Vikings try for ten straight against that great football power Diego! New York Jets 35, Baltimore 28. The Jets are due to win, and anemic secondaries on both teams will help. New York Giants 24. Philadelphia 20. Both teams scored rear upsets last week, but Giants’ home edge will give them the upper hand this time around St. Louis 21. Washington 17. Randy Johnson will be unable to successfully fill in for the ailing Bill Kilmer, although he will give it a good shot Cincinnati 28. Buffalo 17. (Monday Night Game) With Joe Ferguson not 100 percent, the Bills won’t be able to outscore the playoff hungry Behgals who just happen to have one of the best defenses anywhere. - of Jim Young, Emad Faddoul, and Charlie Wright through graduation, the Bulls will be hard put to even approach last year’s dual meet record of 14-3-1. The establishment of the Eastern Wrestling will greatly improve the quality of League competition the Bulls will face. Charter members of the new league are Penn State, Pittsburgh, Clarion State, Lock Haven, Bloomsburg State and the State University at Buffalo. Michael sees “nothing but good things” resulting from the new league. “I feel that it is an honor to be asked to be a charter member of the Eastern League. It could develop into one of the greatest conferences in the country. The league formation will facilitate scheduling, bring about revenue sharing and possibly lead to revenue sharing through television rights.” He added that, “Our past performances have brought us to hwere we are now.” Toughening schedule Aside from the Eastern League, the remainder of the Bulls’ schedule has been tightened up. Nothing but class competition will be in store for the Bulls this season. A major addition to the schedule is national power University of Oklahoma whose January 23 visit is the result of negotiations between Coach Michael and the Oklahoma coach. Apparently two area high school wrestlers were recruited by Oklahoma. Their decision to go west came only after an agreement to give them a chance to wrestle locally. Since Buffalo, ranked 16th nationally for the last four seasons, is the only class team in the area. Coach Michael was approached for the scheduling of the match. How the Bulls will face this year’s challenge is. dependent on several factors, politics included. The instability of the program at Buffalo is not to be discounted. “We don’t appear strong this year," said Michael. “Our recruitment has not been good the last two* years. This is due to the modification of standards for admission made a few years ago. It is now more difficult to bring in certain kinds of athletes. Our credibility has been attacked because of uncertainty of the athletic budget year after year. As the national situation worsens, the quality of our recruitment is affected.” Outside dollars sought Michael firmly states, “The key to our future is in my ability to raise funds from non-student or University sources to support a modest grant-in-aid program.” He has been taking steps in this direction already. In the past, the team has recovered from the loss of stars. Due to poor recruiting years, it will not be easy to recover from the loss of national caliber wrestlers the likes of Young, Faddoul and Wright. More than ever, the success of the season will rely on Michael’s ability to train and shape his wrestlers. The Bulls return Bruce Hadsell, Erik Drasgow, Bob Martineck, Kirk Anderson and Bill Bartosch. New York State 118 Champion Ray Pfeifer will return to the lineup next semester. The addition of Daymond Clark at 134 should certainly improve the Bulls strength, Clark is a transfer from Geneseo where last year he placed in the state meet. Drasgow and Clark are the Bulls’ only seniors. I ist Saturday the Bulls unimpressively opened the season with the Annual State University at Buffalo Alumni-Varsity Wrestling Meet. The “old men” romped over the unseasoned once again proving that old wrestlers just go up a few weight classes. LEO KOTTKE fvm*m/ Capitol.

Cray Spectrum Staff Writer can count on 60 to 90 is a men responding immediately. North Bailey, the Getzville back-up station, has approximately 75 members, and the second back-up station, Eggertsville, has about 60, Miller said. He added that there is a mutual aid fire system in the town of Amherst so that in the event of a serious fire, all Amherst fire companies can be contacted quickly and called for additional help. Getzville has four pumpers, one aerial truck with an 85-foot extension ladder, a rescue truck and an ambulance. North Bailey and Eggertsvilie both have two pumpers available, one aerial (North Bailey has a 100-foot extension ladder) and one rescue truck. Miller said. He added that all of Gctzville’s and North Bailey’s equipment would automatically respond to a fire alarm at the campus. While the most immediate problem concerning fire safety at the Amherst Campus may be vandalism and false alarms, questions have been raised regarding student and employee safety in the event of a fire. The Getzville Fire Company believes it can be on campus in two minutes if it is called to put out a fire. A system has been established whereby Campus Security will meet the firemen at the nearest entrance and, if a patrol car is available, personally escort them to the site of the fire. If a car is not available, a member of Campus Security will still be stationed at the entrance to provide detailed directions for the quickest way to reach the fire. The Getzville firemen have been receiving updated maps of the Amherst Campus regularly and are trying to keep up with construction changes and the Firewalls layout of roads and buildings. The highest buildings at Precautions Amherst are about 10 stores, or Service roads are kept clear of 120 feet. Where any two buildings unauthorized traffic at all times join, fire walls have been and the core road, the main constructed that would contain connecting road within the fires of a certain temperature for campus, is strictly patrolled and two hours. Hunt said. The halls have smoke barrier would be immediately cleared and closed off in the event of a fire, doors every 100 feet and all said Robert Hunt, director of buildings over 70 feet high have Environmental Health and Safety. standpipes on each floor with The Getzville Fire Company inch hose that will reach as far as has 95 members. Getzville Fire 75 feet. Hunt added. Chief Dan Miller said that if there Standpipes are similar to fire hydrants and are connected to the same water supply lines. The standpipes are equipped to handle the heavier 2 Vi inch hose needed for serious fires. Hunt said the buildings are “very fire resistant,” and that there is a minimum of combustible materials in the construction of the buildings, which are mostly brought in by students furnishing their rooms. Bill Murray, director of Fire Safety, added that sprinkler systems are installed in hazardous areas, such as the Bookstore, theater and janitors’ closets (where flammable cleaning liquids might be stored). An ounce of prevention Despite these built-in fire prevention systems and the available manpower, Chief Miller feels some aspects of the campus are not as safe as they could be. “I have some very serious concerns about fire safety out there. And I’m talking about the entire campus, not one or two areas. I’m not pulling any punches. I want that campus to be as fire safe as possible, to the best of my ability. I’ll go as high as 1 have to to see these changes with Miller have taken place made,” he said. regarding fire safety and that his Miller didn’t specify what his department has been trying to particular concerns are, but said work as closely as possible with he is meeting Monday with John him. He said he didn’t know what Telfer, Vice President for Miller’s current concern was only Facilities Planning, Duane Moore, that Miller had requested the a construction associate for Telfer meeting and asked that Hunt be and Hunt present. Telfer said a series of meetings Previous discussions dealt with the placement of fire hydrants, but, according to Hunt, that situation has been remedied. Hunt added that other concerns of Miller’s dealt with the fire communications systems, but said this has been resolved and is scheduled for further improvement. —continued on page 6— Record Coop Reopening under new guidelines President Robert Ketter has given the Student Association (SA) two weeks to develop an acceptable plan for the continued operation of the student Record Coop. “We mutually agreed that the Student Association is the organization which will be held responsible and accountable for the future operation of the Record Coop on campus,” according to a statement issued jointly by Ketter and SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde following a meeting last Friday afternoon. To allow SA enough time to formulate such a plan, “it was agreed that operation of the Coop would be temporarily suspended,” the statement said. Essential elements The statement also outlined the “elements of the plan essential to the continued and approved operation of the Coop.” They include: a probationary period of 90 days after the Coop has reopened; a consistent, appropriate and responsible method for the fiscal and managerial accounting of the Coop, including monthly statements and reporting; a definition of reasonable inventory limits for the facility, necessarily lower than those inventories recorded on November 1,1975; the means by which the Coop will be operated on a sound financial basis. Lalonde said after the meeting that SA will hopefully work with Ed Doty, Vice President for Finance and — - - - Management, in drawing up “the givens the Coop will be operating on.” He added that several ideas are in the planning stages, although he did not specify details. Wait and see Reaction to Ketter’s decision to overturn Doty’s original decision to shut down the Coop was favorable among Coop workers. “It’s O.K.,” one person said. “The administration did not ask for more than we expected. We will have to see how it works.” Doty first sent word of the Record Coop’s closing in a memo to SA President Michele Smith dated October 24, 1975. He said he was forced to close the student-run Coop upon receipt of a formal complaint from Carl C. Cavage, President of Cavages Inc. and owner of a record shop across from the Main Street campus in the University Plaza. Doty met early last week with SA representatives to discuss -the future of the Coop but he upheld his decision to close it, citing improperly kept financial statements and the store’s large volume of business as the major reasons. Vocal protests Meanwhile, angered students voiced their objections by picketing Cavages, writing letters to The Spectrum, and circulating petitions to keep the Coop open. After its initial failure to convince Doty, SA took its case to Ketter on Thursday, November 7. Representing the students were Doug Cohen, Director of Activities and Services; Steve Schwartz, Director of Student Affairs; Bruce Insana, a Coop worker; and Lalonde. Ketter, Doty, Executive Vice President Albert Somit, Assistant Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti, and Faculty Senate Chairman George Hochfield, spoke for the administration and faculty. Various political and legal issues were raised at the meeting, and it was agreed that Ketter would announce his final decision late Friday after he spoke privately with Lalonde �i I Blind students emit a special determination ■ ■ v '. by Meg Covey / • ' \ Spectrum Staff Writer -v "' 5 -V > . j Imagine if one day the lights went out, and everything was left in darkness. Imagine never seeing the faces of classmates, the campus buildings, even the trees and landscape of the University. Or, imagine it is partially dark, with some shapes visible, but the world still in somewhat of a haze. These are only fantasies for most students, but for the fourteen blind or partially blind students at this University, attending school with sighted classmates requires a special determination. Bertha Cutcher, Assistant Director of Career Guidance and Placement, said the University recommends and encourages blind students to register early for courses so they can begin special preparation for any class that calls for it. When the classes are set, the required books for each subject’are ordered from an organization that records books on tape for the blind. Lists are also sent out in hopes of getting other editions in Braille. Braille, tapes and readers Not all titles are carried, and in.; that case, other means are used to obtain the books in suitable form. Texts are recorded at Ridge Lea by undergraduate members of the Speech Communication Department. Cutcher said there is a room in the Harriman offices of the Vice-president of Student Affairs where readers may recite books to the blind students. The room is also used to administer oral exams. A blend of Braille, tape, and readers, then, is used by blind students to complete their courses, Cutcher said. For the partially sighted, a machine, similar in appearance to a television enlarges print to achieve greater legibility. The machine was acquired by the University a year ago and is permanently housed in Lockwood Library. Aiding mobility Mobility can be a problem for blind students. But “once they learn how to get around, they get around,” Cutcher said. She believes the Amherst campus is more barrier-free than the older buildings on Main Street, but looks forward to further improvements on both campuses which will make any part of the University more familiar and accessable. Brailling classroom and elevator numbers to assist mobility is a possibility. Another aid to mobility that Cutcher proposed is the tactile map, which was recently accepted as a project by the Department of Environmental Design. Cutcher and other invdividuals have taken it upon themselves to help the visually impaired here. However, a special task force on campus makes an attempt to identify existing and potential problems of the blind in an effort to improve conditions. The Physical Education Department has planned a special adaptive class for handicapped students next semester, including the visually disabled, which will give them an opportunity to learn to bowl, exercise and participate in other types of athletics. Excellent and independent All the resources available to blind and partially blind students are very good, according to Megan Ford, a recent University graduate who is currently an instructor in Women’s Studies College, and partially blind herself. She termed Cutcher’s work for the blind “fantastic.” Ford compared a particular midwestern state's rehabilitation agency with those in New York State. She claimed the midwestern state was of “no help” and pried into the personal lives of each applicant* granting aid to those with “proper” personal characteristics, including “correct” political affiliations. New York State, on the other hand, is not concerned with student’s personal affairs, she stated, but, rather, gives aid on the basis of the student’s academic motivation and endeavors. She added that some people feel the visually handicapped are different, and yet these people are actually unreceptive to the special needs of a blind person striving for higher education. In their quest for a college education, Cutcher feels, these students, make good use of the available resources and are “excellent and independent individuals.” Bus token sale finds success Bus tokens offered to students at a reduced rate often for S3 have proven a welcome Student Association (SA) benefit for commuters. When the tokens were first offered last week at the Norton Hall Ticket Office, 500 were purchased in 30 mihutes. This week, because of long lines of students waiting for concert tickets, it took a little longer an hour and fifteen minutes. The idea of seeking a reduced bus fare for commuters came originally from SA President Michele Smith. Preliminary negotiations with the Niagara Frontier Transit Authority (NFTA) proved fruitless because the NFTA was not convinced that the demand for the tokens at a 3-5 cent discount would be large enough to make the venture worthwhile financially. However, SA Executive Vice President Arthur Lalonde and Donna Buehler, a concerned undergraduate, decided to pursue the project. — SWAP N’ SHOP Now open 2 locations for RVMQ KAYE CO., MC.

Even with these 'statistics, NFTA was not convinced that the reduced fare would be worthwhile. “At this point, 1 felt pretty deflated,” said Lalonde. But then, the SA Executive Committee voted to follow the example of Buffalo State College by purchasing a large volume of the tokens at regular price, and selling them at a reduced rate. Buff State only attempted this project once, Lalonde said, but here the sale will take place every week. Since the funding for the project is coming from undergraduate mandatory activity fees, the tokens are only being sold to undergraduates. “It’s your money!” Lalonde emphasized, He urged undergraduates not to purchase tokens for outsiders, since there is a limit of ten per person per week, and “there’s not enough to go around as it $500.00 Frl. 14th PAPERBACK They conducted what Lalonde called a “quasi-market survey,” counting how many students & & HOMES BLD. $3.00 Entry Fees/Person 630 P.M.

NY �College appointees D.C Budget rally Anyone interested in helping with the Student Association’s (SA) projects to deal with the budget Crisis should contact Lynn Bittner at the SA office at 831-5507, or at 636-5492. CarpooIs will be formed next Tuesday for those wishing to attend a rally in Washington, O.C., to support federal aid for New York City. Anyone interested in driving and/or participating should call SA for more information. Impending budget crisis for the state A University-wide “Teach-In” planned for next Monday will feature workshops designed to educate students and faculty about the impending budget crisis the State University (SUNY) will face if New • York City defaults. - > A “Walk-for-SUNY” will start from the Ellicott Complex at 8; 30 a.m., and end at Norton Hall where the marchers will gather in the Fillmore Room for a rally at noon. Speakers will discuss aspects of the crisis and what can be done to face it. Student Association (SA) representatives were told by President Robert Ketter in a meeting last Friday that the administration supports the event. SA President Michele Smith said Ketter was “very receptive,” and “all in favor” of the project. She said Ketter also favored the formation of a “steering committee for long-range plans” to deal with the budget crisis. Ketter was not available for comment. Bad tunes “If cuts continue, we can only foresee bad times ahead for students,” Smith said. She pointed out that the budget request being presented to the state by SUNY Chancellor Boyer and the Board of Trustees will probably be an “austerity” or "no-growth” budget. “The last time there was an austerity budget was in 1973, when there was also a tuition increase,” she said. A telegram from Boyer to President Ford predicted dire consequences for SUNY if New York City is not helped out of its present financial difficulties. Smith said the “Teach-In” will be geared toward clearing away “a lot of bad misconceptions” among people on campus concerning what default would mean. She pointed out that default would have serious consequences for Buffalo, as well as SUNY. Many local construction projects would be halted, and interest rates would skyrocket. Upstate and down “The people in Buffalo should not have to suffer because of New York City’s problems,” she said. “But there’s a lot of deep-rooted resentment in the city of Buffalo towards downstate.” “New York State by itself can’t bail out the City,” she said, pointing out that the City’s default would have long-range effects that patchwork aid for SUNY from the federal government, even if it was provided, could not alleviate. “The Teach-In’ will hopefully help students realize the effects that money has on their education.” I AM I $57 Round trip via spacious luxury equipped motorcoach 1.

The Council, which must approve four out of the six faculty members who will be appointed to the committee, charged that the Faculty Senate Executive Committee, characterized the' faculty appointments as the first steps toward a “lily-white” committee. Weeks also said the only community input on the committee would come from £va Lidge, a committee member nominated by the College Council and approved by the Faculty Senate. Weeks also saw the current composition of the Charming Committee as hostile to colleges considered more radical. Drawing particular resentment within the College, said Weeks, was the violated both the Council’s own recommendations and the dictates of the Affirmative Action guidelines in not including any Third World faculty members on the list of eight nominees. The Council also charged the Faculty Senate with threatening to appoint committee members without the Council’s approval, a violation of the Reichert Prospectus, under which the Chartering Committee was set up. The Senate originally sent a list of nominees to the Council. The Council was supposed to choose four committee members from the Ust. According to the Reichert Prospectus, faculty members on the Chartering Committee must be acceptable to the Colleges while Colleges members on the committee must be acceptable to the faculty. Pass back Noting that no Third World members were included on the list, the Council chose three of the four and sent the list back to the Faculty Senate. The Senate sent back the list without adding or deleting any names and the Council eventually selected Laurance Michel of the English Department as the fourth member while sending the protest with Faculty Senate. Faculty-Senate Chairman George Hochfield said he was only carrying out the will of the Senate Executive Committee in sending the list back to the Council without adding new names. He also stated that the only point of contention between the two bodies was over the fourth of the four members, and that there had not been any argument over the first three faculty members appointed. At a meeting Thursday, the College Council also protested the Chartering Committee’s beginning reviews of Social Sciences College and College F (Tolstoy College) this week, well before the January deadline. The Council feared the scope of the reviews. would be broader than the perfunctory check envisioned when President Robert Ketter first added them as conditions for approving charters for the two colleges in January 1974. Not invidious Colleges Dean Irving Spitzberg said he does not see the reviews as invidious devices to shut down the two colleges, and said they are proper at this time. Social Sciences College opposed conducting the review at this time, questioned scope of the review, and vowed to lobby against the appointments of the faculty members. Robin Weeks, a member of the College’s Irving Spitzberg reappointment of Undergraduate Library Director Yoram Szekely, who was reappointed by the Faculty Senate without consultation. A clause in the Reichert Prospectus allows either College Council or the Faculty Senate to reappoint an incumbent committee member for a one-year term without the other body’s approval. Szekely had been approved by the College Council when he was initially appointed to the Chartering Committee in the Spring of 1974. Szekely said that the Social Science College charges originated from points he raised at the chartering hearings last fall. In particular, he said he became upset when certain members of the college, in response to his hypothetical question, said they would not necessarily support the right of Arthur Jensen and William Shockley to speak on campus. The question had come up during discussions of the course, “Jensenism and the Crisis in U. Education,” which is critical of Jensen’s and Shockley’s philosophies. Szekely said he had also referred to regular faculty involved with the College as “front men” who actually had little to do with governance, a view which he admits might be outdated by now. the Have complaints or problems about: All students Record Co-op are members Food Service RA cutbacks NYC default Non-Academic Problems attend — Student Affairs Task Force meeting Thursday, Nov. 13 at 3:00 in rm 234 Norton •ADD $3.00 Wednesday, 12 November 1975 .

The terms of the agreement arc similar to those of another Sinai resolution which was flatly rejected by Israel earlier this year, much to Kissinger's dismay. Besides calling for a three year extension of the mandate of the United Nations Peace Keeping Force, thcr terms include important concessions on both sides. The Israelis will cede to the Egyptians a small but militarily important strip of land in the Northeastern Sinai (adjacent to the Suez Canal) which includes the strategic Gidda and Milta passes and the valuable Abu Rudeis oil fields, all of which were captured during the June 1967 war.

Under the agreement they are to allow the unhindered passage of cargo ships bound for Israel through the Suez Canal, moderate their Anti-Israeli propaganda and withhold their support from Arab efforts to bring about the expulsion of Israel from the United Nations. This last provision was successful in thwarting Arab support for an Israeli expulsion vote in the current session of the General Assembly. The Egyptian concessions are highly significant, and according to an article in the September 18 issue of Time magazine, mean “virtual acceptance on the part of the Egyptians, of a state of peaceful coexistence with Israel.” The whole agreement hinges upon a provision Included at Israel’s insistence. It provides for the installation in the Sinai “buffer zone” (the neutral demilitarized zone sandwiched between the opposing forces) of troop monitoring surveillance stations, crammed with highly sophisticated eavesdropping equipment, and manned by 100 to 200 American technicians. Critics maintain that this development could portend a direct U.S. involvement in a future Mid-East war. Maple Rd.) Student Occupational ■ Therapy Assoc .

The recently negotiated Sinai Accord, Zionism American foreign policy were harshly denounced by Sami A1 Banna, a representative of the Palestine Information Committee and an engineering professor at Columbia University, in a lecture in Norton Hall Friday. The Sinai accord, the product of “shuttle diplomacy” by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger effectively reduces Israeli-Egyptian tensions and makes the likelihood of another Mid-East war more and ■ • Harsh criticism The accord has been subject to harsh criticism from the more militant factions in the Arab world. The Palestine Liberation organization (PLO), Syria and Lybia have accused Egypt of “selling out.” Egyptian President Anwar Sadat has taken a calculated rish in leaving himself wide open to criticism from the Left, by cooperating with Kissinger. Al Banna is one of these leftist critics. He speaks from the point of view of the PLO, which is notoriously hostile towards any conciliation with Israel. Calling for an initial Israeli withdrawal to its pre-1967 borders, A1 Banna insisted that the accord only succeeds in intensifying the Arab struggle against Zionist Israel and the quest for fundamental human rights. Although he indicated the agreement removes Egypt the common front against Israel, he believed it signifies only a temporary lull in the “inexorable fight with Zionism.” A1 Banna went on to denounce American media and governmental “deceptions” which have portrayed U.S. support of Israel as being in overriding interest of democracy. The United States, he added, is “upholding genocide” through its support of Israel with billions of dollars worth of armaments and economic aid which would be better spent on pressing domestic social and economic problems. He advised the American government to officially recognize the PLO as the sole representative of the Palestinian people, which thus far it has adamantly refused to do. In a methodical denunciation of the Sinai accord, A1 Banna asserted that the stationing of American observers in the Sinai buffei' zone is a precursor of another Vietnam type involvement. Racist ideology? In a lengthy critique, A1 Banna termed Zionism an inherently racist ideology because it presupposes anti-semetism. Zionism, A1 Banna said, allies itself with anti-semetic elements in its basic tenets, which advocate “the segregation of the Jewish people from the rest of the world.” He went so far as to equate Zionism with Nazism, indicating that both ideologies “project the inalienable rights of nationality irrespective to history.” Asserting that the state of Israel is built upon the suppression of the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people. At Banna repeated PLO leader Yasir Arafat’s call for the dissolution of Israel and its replacement with a “free” state where Jew and Arab could live peacefully together. Later, during a question and answer period, this solution was criticized as unrealistic on the grounds that Israel would never voluntarily submit to such a plan, and therefore the solution implies the physical destruction of Israel. But Al Banna insisted upon its validity, reasoning that a radical change in people's attidues is possible over an extended period of time. Many of Al Banna’s assertions were vehemently contested by supporters of Israel. This provoked angry responses from the Arab supporters, and a disorderly, empassioned altercation ensued. Each side raised the specter of gruesome human atrocities perpetrated by each other. These include both atrocities committed by PLO commando raids (e.g., Maalot) and retaliatory Israeli raids on Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon. George Ciacamal, President of the Arab Graduate Student Organization which sponsored the presentation, expressed regret over the disorderly behavior of the audience. ��>* Jt. sft Teacher o.i.. Wpjt *-. ■' V'.Q - by Paul Krehbtd Contributing Editor Teachers across western New York have responded to rising prices, budget cuts, deterioration of facilities, overcrowded classrooms, and lack of control over their work, by engaging in a record number of strikes this fall. Negotiations have failed and teachers have followed in the footsteps of workers in private industry by withholding their labor in a continued effort to redress their grievances. Yet, teachers, classified as public employees, are denied the legal right to strike under the infamous anti-labor Taylor Law, and have been hit with stiff fines, jailings and loss of privileges. The New York State law prohibits public employees from striking, and withholds two days pay from each striker for each day he is on strike. Orchard Park teachers hit Additionally, each striker loses one year’s tenure. This means that a teachers’job security is temporarily lost. The local school districts levy the fines, while teachers can appeal to the Public Employees Relations Board (PERB). Teachers in western New York have been hit ; »‘ T, ■* fM; C- v j" t' •**" If ,; '. stakes atthah&iest >** *■ especially hard. Recently, eight teacher union officials from the striking Orchard Park Teachers Association (OPTA), were sentenced by State Supreme Court Justice Norman Stiller to 30 days in the Erie County Correctional Facility for contempf of court when teachers ignored a court order to end the strike. Stiller revealed his thoroughly anti-labor sentiments by imposing a $5000 fine on the OPTA, adding that the union would have to pay an additional $1000 per day for each day the teachers remained on strike. The union has been out since October 14, costing it over $30,000 dollars in fines already. Teachers protest The union teachers walked off their jobs after school negotiators failed to meet their proposals for fair dismissal procedures, (to prevent arbitrary and unjust firings), a say over teacher transfers, and higher wages to make up earning losses due to inflation. After Justice Stiller announced the jail sentences, 250 union teachers rallied in Buffalo’s Niagara Square the next day to protest the harsh sentences and affirm their intent to stick by their demands. “This strike action is just as strong as it ever was,” said Thomas Rivers, OPTA President, before he went to jail. “Some people back in Orchard Park, calling themselves Board of Education members, thought when they got their pound of flesh yesterday, that everything would collapse,” he added. ‘Proud and honored’ In refusing to knuckle under to the board, Douglas Johnston, OPTA representative, told the cheering rally just before he went to jail; “I am proud and honored to do this, not just for Orchard Park, but for all teachers in New York State.” While' the teachers protested publicly, Emanuel Tabachnick, legal counsel for the OPTA, argued for a stay of execution in front of State Supreme Court Justice Moule. After nine hours in jail, a stay was granted until December 1. and the eight were released. Teachers unions in western New York have expressed their support for the OPTA, by sending messages of solidarity and funds. Negotiations continue, the OPTA strike holds firm, and expressions of hatred for the Taylor Law grow. Teachers fined Yet, the teachers of Orchard Park are not the only area teachers to receive reprisals under the law for engaging in strike activities. Six hundred teachers in the Williamsville School District were hit with Taylor law fines and tenure losses for their five-day strike in September. One hundred and eighty-three teachers from the Springville School District and 900 from the Niagara Falls TOMORROW 4230 Ridge Lea Rm B8 " All they think about is money...” School District, were just notified of their Taylor Law penalties after both unions engaged in five-day strikes in September Every teacher from the Starpoint School District is being hit with a fine of $120 for every day they were out during their six-day strike in October. Teachers are currently on strike in Niagara-Orleans, and along with the Orchard Park teachers, will not be fined until 30 days after the end of their strikes, according to the law. Abolish Taylor Law In the face of growing economic problems, why should teachers, or other productive workers, be forced to pay for a recession which is a natural cycle of our unplanned and contradictory economic system? While some companies, businesses and other institutions decline or go bankrupt, many are taken'over by larger enterprises and integrated into their profit-making plans. In a recession, economic power becomes more centralized in the hands of fewer and fewer wealthy interest groups, who, sooner or later, set new profit records. The infamous Taylor Law legalizes the open robbery of public employees, in an effort to pay for the economic stagnation that the owners of the economy and their servants in the state perpetuate. As the deterioration of the standard and quality of life of public employees continues, the movement to abolish this anti-labor law will increase. If successful, public employees will then be able to take their place next to privately-employed workers, to bargain and strike over the conditions of their labor, without being punished by a reactionary state law.

Either way the university washed its hands of the whole morality question and avoided taking a stand on the right of college women to contraception and counseling. The federal legislation against sex discrimination known as Title IX may have changed all that and forced universities into the vanguard of family planning services. Although a requirement to provide birth control devices is not included in the new Department of Health, Education and Welfare’s (HEW) regulations, some women’s groups claim that the implication is there. What Title IX does say is that any institution which receives any federal funds and “provides full coverage health service shall provide gynecological care.” But “gynecological care” does not necessarily imply distributing birth control devices. One spokeswoman for the Alan Guttmacher Institute, the research branch of Planned Parenthood, claimed that it is discriminatory not to provide gynecological care and access to contraceptive services “because the one fundamental difference between men and women is in regard to their reproductive roles and health care needs. If female students don’t get help through the college health service, they have to purchase it through a private physician or incur health and pregnancy risks.” - The fact is, most college women need access to birth control services. According to the Commission oji Population Growth and the American Future, nearly half the unmarried women in the United States have had sexual intercourse by age 19. The picture, however, is not one of “rampant sexuality among the sexually experienced,” but of greatly misinformed women with vague ideas about how pregnancy occurs and the use of contraception. In the past, schools have generally treated sex-related .health needs as a separate medical need, outside the realm of their responsibility to women on campus. And although women students usually pay their schools a separate charge for health care, most have had no alternative but to rely on a private physician for care and gynecological contraceptive advice, resulting in additional costs to the student. With incfeasingly liberal attitudes toward visitation, coed dorms and cohabitation, more schools are including birth control clinics in their health services. Some schools, however, are still fighting against the dissemination of contraceptive advice on their campuses. Overloaded clinic Recently the Board of Regents of Arizona State University (ASU) forbid the campus health service from giving family planning counseling and birth control devices to students. The Regents’ decision is now being contested in court, but meanwhile women students are shuttled off to the local Planned Parenthood which —continued on Fire safety... Telfer felt the greatest concern was basically financial on Miller’s part. He explained that under New York State law a state institution cannot directly support a local fire company. The law says that the “contributions by employees [of the institution] to the tax base makes up for any lack of direct contribution.” Telfer said he realizes this places a great financial burden on Getzville, but said, “Our hands are tied because of the law.” Miller, however, disputed Telfer’s claim that financial reasons were the basic problem. He admitted that because the campus was placed in hjs district, the town has been forced to raise its tax rate to purchase additional tion . 8— to “remedy certain deficiencies that exist on the campus relating to fire safety.” “I’m not going out there to ask for money. My one and only concern is fire safety. The money situation concerns all the residents, but fire prevention and safety is what I’m after,” Miller asserted.

Fancy cgrs to Presidency fei x «-< Wednesday, 12 Nov6: - by Jesse Beahan Spectrum Staff Writer Senator Lloyd Bentsen (D., Texas), one of the few politicians from Texas who supports federal aid to New York City, continued his campaign for the 1976 Democratic Presidential nomination in Norton Hall last Saturday night. Bentsen is a lawyer and a millionaire who served three terms in the House of Representatives and has been in the Senate since 1970. There he is a member of the Finance, Public Works, and Joint Economic Committees. He was the first Democrat to announce his candidacy for the Presidency when on April 6 of this year, he asked himself the rhetorical question, “Where do you go from fancy cars and million-dollar bank accounts?” The Senator arrived about twenty minutes after he was scheduled to begin speaking, accompanied by a five-car contingent of Secret Service men.' He devoted most of his time to answering questions from the 200 students who jammed Haas Lounge. Fiscal crisis The first question dealt with New York City’s fiscal crisis, and congressional efforts to aid the metropolis. “Without question New York has lived beyond its income for a long time,” he asserted. “We are already seeing the ripple effects, in the form of higher interest rates.” Bentsen advocates the Stevenson bill, which calls for some steps to be taken before federal aid is given, and emphasized that only after substantial budget cuts were made would he advise heavy federal backing. The students persisted with half a dozen more questions about New York, most of them dealing with federal intervention. Bentsen was more inclined to talk about energy, insisting that, “When it comes to coal, we are the Saudi Arabia of the world.” He said Americans must start “with the proposition that this nation can, with hard work and determination, become self-sufficient” in energy, and a scientific effort, such as the one employed during World War II to replace rubber and silk, was needed. ERA support In response to a question about the Equal Rights Amendment, Bentsen replied firmly, “1 j ; —J. Chin Lloyd Bentsen Abraham Lincoln thought of something to say when he offered amnesty after the Civil War, and that President Ford found a way to pardon Nixon. This drew applause from the students. Population policy When asked if the United States should have a population policy, he made the statement, “I think there should be encouragement to see that children born are wanted.” When he asked which way he would vote on repealing the Gi. Bill when it came to a vote in the Senate, Bentsen said he would have to vote to repeal it, but not retroactively. “It’s a matter of how much you can spend,” he explained.

Counseling service by prison group sought The Buffalo Women’* Prison Project (BWPP) is presently patting together s througb-t he-phone jail counseling service for aU those detained at the Erie County Holding Center. The group began to formulate this program when it was denied entrance to the Holding Center due to rising tensions among inmates there and the feeling on the part of the jail administration that the Project volunteers were partly responsible for it. “We realize what the jail is like and that it is necessary for people to keep in contact with the people inside in order to try and prevent their isolation from the outside world. When there isn’t anyone going inside or being a public voice for the people inside, the administration, the guards, and the matrons can do whatever they and what they please, please usually isn’t too good,” said a spokesperson for the group. —* Maintaining a link She feels it is essential to maintain those links with the “innocent” people trapped inside who are often only in awaiting trial because they can’t afford their bail. This past summer, she said, when communication between the detainees and any outside groups was pretty much stifled, there was a suicide, a hunger strike and beatings which were witnessed by the women incarcerated there. “We must provide the link and prevent the administration from taking advantage of those inside by letting people know what’s going on and watching over what they do.” In the spring of 1975, the FOR SALE OLYMPUS OM-1 MO with SOrom fl.tand 135mm f 3.5 lenses plus case for camera and normal and case for 13S plus 2 filters for lenses $325 today only See Larry in Room 355 Norton Hall between 10 a.m.—5 p.m. or call 831-4113. BWPP organized a jail count*ling service to deal with the practical finding out day-to-day needs trial dates, contacting people to post bail, finding out where children are and if welfare checks of the women are still coming inside the Erie County Holding Center. After, months of organizing, establishing an advisory board, writing proposals and holding training sessions, the program was accepted at the Holding Center. However, one week before it was to begin in June 1975, Thomas Whelan, the superintendent of the jail, changed his mind and decided not to allow the program. — - The BWPP decided that the services it was trying to provide for those inside the jaU were greatly needed and that until volunteers could get the program inside the jail, they would try to use the telephone as a communication link. “Although we know this is not as effective as going inside, at least we will be able to know what is going on inside and we will still be able to meet some of the needs of the detainees there, even though what we can do will be much more limited,” the spokesperson said. “In addition, by having a telephone contact number, people can get in contact with us before they are sent to the Holding Center, at their arraignment or right after being arrested, so we can take care of things they might need right away. Abo, we are hoping that people in the community that are having an> related type of problems eithei with the jail administration itself or just plain not knowing where to go to help people that they may know inside, can contact us,” she said. “Since we are in touch with the resources that do exist in Erie County, we can try to direct them to the right place or make some contacts for them which might help their situation.” The BWPP needs more people who are interested in helping provide this service and are willing to stay by the phone a few hours a week to answer calls and carry through on them. For all those who would like to get involved, there will be a meeting on Thursday, November 13, at 7:30 p.m. at the Build Halfway House on 17-19 East Utica Street. Those interested may also call Robin at 837-7498. Wednesday, 12 November 1975 The Spectrum Page seven . . �Birth control sees an average of 35 patients a* day. “Sixty percent are students and more than half of that figure are ASU students," one worker there said. The attitude of the Regents, according to the Student Association president of ASU is well reflected in an editorial that appeared in the Arizona Republic. “The public education system does not need to add a function designed to bail out students whose frolicsome sexual freedom is pursued with abandon, often with sad results. Now is the time for them to learn on their own the costs of promiscuity, and to either use common sense or pay.” Even those who do use common sense end up paying. Although birth control is offered on many more campuses now than ever before, women students are often expected to support such services with money in addition to their regular health care fees.

Women students pay in other ways, too. Many have to wait two or three months to set up an appointment with a gynecologist through the health service. At Washington University in St. Louis, there is one gynecologist for 5000 female students. The health service at Washington University will take care of emergency gynecological problems right away but as the gynecological nurse explained, “We can’t consider a request for birth control as an emergency. We hate to tell women they have to wait an extra month and they don’t like to hear it, but there is nothing we can do.” PREGNANCY?

' f-.H O «• There’s more than one kind of inflation that college (CPS) administrators are complaining about. Grade inflation has drawn the criticism of administrators throughout the country who are beginning to question how many students deserve the grades they get. As evidence, they point fo Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) scores for college-bound seniors which are failing to new lows at the same time that grade point averages are climbing. At the University of Oklahoma, where the average grade in one college is a 3.0, Dean Paige Mulhollen said recently that people hiring graduates “are going to begin to wonder, if everybody we turn out has a high grade point but some of them aren’t very capable. They’re going to start asking us, 'Wait a minute, what are you doing for us’?” The dean of the school of education at Arizona State University was alarmed enough by the high grades doled out in the school to put a ceiling on the number of A’s or B’s awarded each quarter. MDry than 85 percent of the school’s students received A’s or B’s in fall quarter last year, according to a survey. Final grades won’t be able to exceed a 3.0 average for all undergraduate students under the V'-f’V ill UKu - new system The problem is hardly confined to Arizona and Oklahoma. A study of 197 institutions conducted by a researcher at Michigan State University showed that since 1960, the average grade esmedhad risen by about one half of a grade. As a result, according to the dean’s student assistant at Johns Hopkins University, “it is increasingly difficult to distinguish mediocre students from the truly outstanding ones.” The assistant claimed that if the trend is unchecked, grades will no longer be a valid measurement of achievement and “the mainstay of the educational system will in fact be perverted.” Administrators doubt that grades are going up because students are getting smarter. They point to SAT scores which show that, if anything, the opposite is true. SAT scores released this fall showed that on an 800-point scale, the average verbal score has dropped 44 points since 1963. Scores on the math section of the tests have dipped 30 points over the same period. In Oklahoma, Mulhollen said that there are a number of reasons why grades have edged upward over the years. “Some think it has grown out of the Vietnam war, that there are some faculty who were unwilling to give bad grades that might lead to people getting drafted,” he said. He added that there arc others “who think secondary education is better than it has ever been before, or that television has created a ‘super-generation.’ There are a lot bf suggested reasons but I don’t think anybody has much data to support any of them," he said. Other administrators blame the economy. The need to keep enrollment Up during hard economic times may have led instructors to give higher grades to keep students at their schools. At the University of Wisconsin in Milwaukee, administrators claimed that policies allowing students to drop classes they are doing poorly in may be part of the reasoh for grade averages that have risen from 2.6 to 2.8 there between 1969 and 1975. The result of skyrocketing grades, according to Yale Dean Jaroslav Pelikan, is that the “nuances about a student’s capacity for scholarship are more and more difficult to read from a transcript.” Both employers and enrollment officials will be forced to rely less heavily on grade points and develop other methods to measure ability.

The student, Sheena Rose, has been doing a study of the effect of THC (the active ingredient of marijuana) on vision under simulated night lighting illumination. Preliminary results of the tests indicate that the rabbits used in the experiments cannot see as well after a THC injection. The injections are not super-human amounts either. “My high dosage is probably less than the average street dose you can get from smoking two or three joints,” Rose said. - Garrett may have hired Davis to embarrass Claremont in retaliation for his firing. Garrett denied this and says Davis simply applied for the job after it was advertised in trade journals. Claremont’s governing board attempted to withdraw the job offer but Davis had already signed a contract Davis was acquitted in 1972 of murder and kidnapping charges stemming from an abortive attempt to free prisoners at the Marin County California courthouse. A judge and three other persons were killed. Although Davis was not involved in the incident, it was later discovered that a gun belonging to one of the kidnappers had been purchased by her. Davis, who says she belongs to the Communist Party, came under heavy fire during her teaching days at UCLA in the late sixties for what , some University of California regents considered her radical ideas. Female fighters win more benefits Female veterans of the armed forces (CPS) may be eligible for additional government cash, thanks to a recent change in the Veterans Administration rule book. Now women attending school under the Gl Bill may receive some extra monetary benefits, regardless of actual dependency of their husband. Formerly, women had to prove that their spouses were totally disabled and totally dependent for the same benefits, while males were able to receive additional benefits regardless of their partner’s dependency. Conditions for female eligibility are that the woman had a living husband, and between June 1, 1966 and October 24, 1972 had been attending school and receiving some educational assistance. Cut-off date for claims is July 1, 1976. , - Angela Davis teaching again (CPS) Angela Davis is back in the classroom this week and already storm clouds are gathering at the small, conservative California college which hired • .

Slumber satisfies leas when drunk (CPS) Sleeping off a drunk may be the time-honored way to cure a hangover, but in the long run, the bigger the drinker, the lighter the sleeper, according to three University of Oklahoma researchers. In fact, the behavioral scientists say, people who suffer from the disease of alcoholism also suffer from insomnia, repeated awakenings, a marked increase in dreaming and very little or no deep sleep. The trio is currently engaged in a unique three-year research project at the University’s Alcohol Research Center to determine whether these disturbances are permanent even after the drinker has gone on the wagon. Aided by a $168,000 federal grant, the three arc hooking 40 volunteers from a local alcohol treatment program to sensitive polygraph machines in order to monitor their sleep. “1A this way, we can determine person’s steep pattern from dozing to dreaming'and tell whether any improvements (over the three years) have beer made,” one of the researchers said.. Several heavy drinkers are already having their sleep monitored. One 44-year old man, who has been drinking heavily since he was 16, said the tests intrigued him. “1 volunteered for this because it’s research and I’m curious about it. And hey,” he added, “they pay you for time in the sleep lab.” . * □ Priesthood □ Brotherhood Arlington, Va. 22250 • i i ( | ' Nime Address ClN Education High School.

Generally, he conceeds that the University community does not have the right to have supportive benefits for the students. As students of the University, we deserve at least some benefits. The United States Government on the same level has rightly justified the use of supportive benefits for military dependents and Active Duty Personnel.

OUR student union to OUR record store, flat on our base personnel buy their food at wholesale prices. The government picks up the difference needed to employ Civil Service scale wages and facility expenses. In contrast, the Record Coop does not use state funds to pay students to coordinate the activity. Therefore, the Coop is run by and for students at no cost to the University. Is it fair in either case? Should military dependents be allowed to buy at wholesale prices at the expense of tax-paying public? Perhaps not, although this is exactly what has persisted, and what is becoming a growing and thriving operation. Military complexes around the country are not only expaning facilities, but are at the same time creating a demand for such facilities. The above example clearly indicates that at least on a Federal level, this policy exists. Has it been proved that the government is at fault? The only clear choice is to allow the Coop to exist, especially since the government of the United States has set a precedent, a case in point that can clearly be seen by everyone. Douglas Schmidt Innocent Cavages. After contacting the telephone company, we were advised that we might not have our phone service restored until late Friday evening. Although we agree with the students fighting for the Record Coop’s survival, we do not feel that this should be an all out war effort towards Cavages. As in any war, there are casulaties, and we became these casualties, but we are students just like those that the Record Coop has as customers. Efforts should continue for the continued existence of our Record Coop, but not at the expense of your fellow students. None of us have purchased records from Cavages, so what do you have against us? Gary M. Klein Daniel P. Sweet Asking for Wise decision President Robert Ketter made a very wise decision to keep the Record Coop open in light of the fact that students here will not stand for allowing worthwhile programs and services to be wiped out at the whim of insensitive administrators. Ketter's own Vice President for Finance and Management, Ed Doty, displayed a total lack of discretion in the way he handled the matter from the start. It is at least reassuring that the President need not be governed by the inept decisions of his subordinates. While the Student Association acted out its role competently in dealing with the impending shutdown, it is more importantly the outraged, outspoken students who stood behind their Record Coop that saved it. Students do they only have to wield their power at this University often. show it more (gasp!) COMPETITION with poor Charley Cavage, owner of 10 other record outlets besides the one across the street. Why bother us CHARLES? We won’t bother you. The way we, as students, see it, Norton Hall is asses with no power to affect the decision to close the Record Coop. The fact that Charley Cavage filed OUR student union, and the Record Coop is the formal complaint to the administration is true, student-run for the students’ benefit if WE the however the judge, jury and henchmen once again STUDENTS WANT IT!

We have been given the Royal Screw!! The lowly serf used to be able to barter for the magic vinyl discs with his measly pittance of wheat and potatoes, out now, our Lord Coop has been slain by your Knight, Lord “Profit” Margin. We can no longer afford these magic discs. Our Overlords, Benedict “Arnold,” Fetter, and his Vassel, “Duh-Duh” Dooty have apparently defected onto your side.

In regard to our problem with the Coop, I don’t know if this possible solution was proposed or not, but here it is anyway. Move the Coop out to EUicott. I’m sure there must be space out there. This would satisfy Cavage by being directly out of his area and still give us a Coop that all students will have access to. It is going to have to be moved to Amherst eventually, so why not now? Mr. Cavage can’t complain about our taking business away from him as we aren’t in his direct business area. With this approach we might persuade Mr. Cavage to drop his complaint and keep the Coop in operation. Mack Malawiiz �Backpage // defense To the Editor I wish to comment on the recent letter of Friday, Nov. 7 which criticized the Backpage policy of printing announcements in the paper immediately preceding the date of an event. As you can see from the Backpage of this paper, as well as that of many others, it is impossible to include all the announcements which are submitted, consequently the establishment of the policy. I am only a human being; I do not pretend to be anything else, and I do make mistakes. As for the Italian Club meeting, which seemed to be the basis for your entire argument, I apologize. It was an oversight on my part and I regret any problems which may have occurred because of it. It does not happen that often; the major cause of mistakes such as these is the refusal on the part of students to adhere to the given policy. Few students even bother to read the note at the top of Backpage and come in at 2 p.m. to hand in announcements which were supposed to be submitted at noon. Duplicate announcements are submitted for the same event, many of which have different times, dates and/or rooms. Am I supposed to guess which one is correct? In closing. I wish to challenge the people who criticize the way Backpage is run. First of all, you do not have to “resort” to The Spectrum for your announcements if you don’t like the way things are done, put up posters all over campus and see how much of a response you get. Lastly if anyone thinks that they can do a better job, I’d like to see it. I will be in the office (Room 355 Norton Hall) Monday, Wednesday and Friday from 1-2:30 p.m. If you’d like to try your hand at Backpage, I’d love to let you do it. Believe me, I’ve been doing Backpage for more than three years, and it’s more grief than it’s worth. - — -Ronnie Selk Backpage Editor Recto-cranial immersion portion of the rest of the students at this University) To the Editor are I would like to offer a few supplementary (and complimentary) comments on a letter from Douglass N.

It is high time that some pertinent facts be Women’s Studies College The College has advocated classes with enrollment limited to women only. Let’s look at their reasons. First, they say that men cannot intelligently discuss the topics of the course because they’re hung up about whether women are oppressed while women want to discuss how to cope with the problem. If the men are dominating the discussion, as indicated, to prevent progress of the class, the instructor does not have control of the class. Besides the men have the right to have this problem settled. If men are purposely being difficult, then they should be dealt with individually. Second, they say that women have trouble discussing these problems in front of men because they hit too close to home. This indicates that men are considered to have no sympathy a very erroneous belief held by many women. Women who believe this think that most men are sadistical animals at heart. Do most men enjoy killing, destroying, etc? Why did many young men refuse to fight in Vietnam? Why do many men fight for saving wildlife and the environment? One might say that some men are hunters who enjoy killing for sport. I have news for you: some women are also hunters who enjoy killing for sport!! I Your Host. Ronald McDonald, Pres. Burger King Arthur Treacher R-B A rhy Col. Sanders Howard & Johnson Harvey (.lino recognized about the - On the other hand, if women have trouble discussing the problems purely because men are present, then they need to undergo therapy, not to take a course for College credit. Third, they say that “Only a woman can know what it is to be a woman.” Do all women know what it is to be other women? Does Bella Abzug know what it is to be Mary Anne Krupsak? Do you know what it is to be me? Does Jerry Ford know what it is to be Dick Nixon? Or do women only have this power of divination? I’d say that this argument is purely made for propoganda purposes, it is the Any psychologist knows that proverbial “Big Lie the bigger the lie is, the more easily people will believe it. Fourth, they say that the classes are not unlawfully discriminating. Any person who believes in the ERA cannot believe this and remain consistent in their beliefs. Or maybe the double standard has found a new application? The whole argument indicates that women are more equal than men The arguments, when stripped down, are rather weak. Anyone who believes otherwise has not fairly considered the possibilities. The argument is a reversed image of the male chauvinist arguments.

Scenario: 1 was walking from Norton Union to the bus stop at the Diefendorf Annex on the Main Street campus in a heavy rain, walking in the street close to the curb (on the side of the street closest to the annex, there is no sidewalk and the mud is heavy, as will be attested to by anyone who has to pass there regularly). The bus was just leaving the stop, so 1 raised my arm to flag it down. Instead of stopping, or indeed slowing, the bus sped up and whizzed by, cutting the corner dangerously close. The many violations of common sense, safety regulations, and simple consideration for another human being, are apparent. For safety’s sake, corners should be taken at a moderately slow pace, not a breakneck pace, especially on rainy days when the going is bound to be slippery. If a pedestrian is standing in the street considerable care should be taken not to hit him (do I really have to state this?). For consideration’s sake, the fact that I was 15 yards from the stop, waving dejectedly fora ride, in the pouring rain, should have had some sway in a decision to stop, plus the fact that when I leaped away from the path of the oncoming bus, it was that god-awful mud 1 landed in. Now, I’m not going to mention the suspicions I have harboured regarding any malicious intent on the part of the driver of the vehicle, nor will I mention the obvious pleasure he took in his behavior. For the sake of reasonableness, I will assume he drives like a maniacal idiot full time, all the time, and since people of the aforementioned persuasion should not be permitted to walk on the streets, much less to patrol the public avenues in a vehicle of tonage equivalent to that of a battle cruiser, I ask that some action be taken against whoever was piloting bus No. 259 at 4:30 p.m. on November 3, 1975. a) Reprimand and/or relieve him of his weapon, the previously mentioned battle cruiser b) Teach the poor man to drive c) Ridicule him till he flows down the nearest drain pipe, a puddle of his formerly vicious self. Seriously, do something. The Blue Bird Bus Company is employed directly by the University, indirectly by the-students that are the why and wherefore for the University. It is not in the interest of the company, therefore, to commit acts of genocide on its patrons, those who supply its daily bread (what is the old adage about biting the hand that feeds you?). Page twelve,.. The Spectrum Wednesday, 12 November 1975 . Christine Norell Unused calls To the Editor This letter is in regard to the $11 flat rate charged for campus phone service. I think it is about time the Telephone Co. stopped ripping-off students with their excessive service rate. Most phone calls made by students on campus are long-distance calls, either to family or friends. 1, for one, never make anywhere near $11 worth of local calls and I don’t think I’m wrong in assuming that neither do most other students. Last year.TVie Spectrum ran an article mentioning possibilities for various phone service contracts that would charge a much lower flat rate and separate charges for a large number of local calls made over a certain amount. It’s time students stopped paying a high fee for services they don’t even use, providing the phone company with an unfair profit for unused calls.

Student leaders attacked ties between the University of California and the CIA. The student critics stressed that the CIA has violated democratic rights wherever they have conducted activities,” and that the campaign to hire minority students is part of an effort to “exercise dominion over the colonial and underdeveloped world.” i . - Career placement officers from 23 state universities attended a recent conference sponsored by the CIA to promote minority hiring for the agency. The CIA paid all expenses for about 60 university officials who attended the conference in Washington, DC. With the exception of students at UCLA, there was apparently little protest by students or administrators against administrators attending the conference. “There’s absolutely nothing wrong” with the conference, said Charles Sundberg, a dean with the UCLA placement office who attended the conference. “We have a responsibility to be informed about employment prospects.” “But if the CIA expected me to go out and find people for them,” he added, “they wasted their money on me.” The university officials learned about the specifics of a career in the CIA, and heard a speech by then-director of the CIA William Colby. The placement officers left the two-day conference “quite illuminated,” according to Angus Thurmer, Assistant to the Director of the CIA. “These people knew nothing about a career in intelligence.” Quality vs. tokenism Currently, said Thurmer, there are “not many” minority employees in the CIA. “We’re willing to look at blacks, Indians, Eskimos, anybody,” said Thurmer. “But we’re looking for quality, not tokensim.” The university placement officers approached the CIA conference with “skepticism but not hostility,” said Sundberg of UCLA. The participants asked questions concerning the “political climate” surrounding the CIA, and received “straight-forward answers,” added Sundberg. None of the participating University officials expressed any dissatisfaction with the conference to Too much! Suicide is stalking nations campuses by Cynthia Crossen Special to The Spectrum The UCLA student government is currently considering a resolution condemning “any form of administration cooperation in the CIA’s recruitment of minority students and calling for a serious examination of the University’s movtives in cooperating with such an effort.” The resolution calls for an end to all ties between UCLA and the CIA, and demands all correspondence between the CIA and UCLA be made public. Officials from the San Diego and Berkeley campuses of the University of California also attended the conference. A spokesperson for the Berkeley campus said that the CIA conference offer was treated the way it would be from any other government office, and that the placement office went ahead and sent a representative without notifying the chancellor’s office. CIA recruitment on college campuses is not unusual, though efforts at minority recruitment are more recent. At some schools, such as the University of Maryland and the University of California at Davis, CIA recruitment is being resumed after an absence of several years. At the University of Montana, recruitment efforts have been steady for a number of years, and the CIA even advertised openings in the student newspaper. If a person should ever feel a whole life of possibilities (CPS) stretching before him, it is during his days as a college student. For many students, college days arc a time of independence and freedom unlike any before or after, and the college degree, while no longer a promise of success, still means a good chance of it. But every year, at least 250 students find college life or life in general erable that th"y take their own lives. At least 750 others try. And the rate of student suicides, the second largest killer of students after accidents, has increased sharply during the past decade and a half. One Colorado psychiatrist believes the suicide rate correlates with events on campus, and the quieter the campus is, the worse. “When the campus is quiet people less involved in external causes you become more introspective, more involved in taking a look at yourself,” he explained. Other psychologists and social workers find reasons for suicide which exist on every campus every day. The director of the Mental Health Center at Iowa State University blamed student suicides in part on the inherent loneliness of big campuses. “The university student population is a higher risk group (than average),” he said. “A large university can tend to be pretty impersonal. You can be isolated emotionally in the very midst of it.” - — — Indecision A doctor at the Harvard University Health Service noticed that students often become depressed throughout their last year of college because they haven’t decided what they want to do after graduation. The same doctor also blamed modern society’s approval of impulsive acts, the “buy now and pay later” mentality, for student suicides. Phyllis Miller, a staff person at the Iowa State University counselling center, believes that suicidal tendencies become more pronounced at certain times of year. “Depression winter quarter is epidemic,” she said, “especially after Christmas until the end of February.” And depression seems to hit the freshman class harder than others. Miller said, because of academic pressures. “They come here after having been at the top of their class, only to find out that everyone else is also class valedictorian and president of the student council. They find out they’re just normal.” A spokeswoman for the Center for Studies of Suicide Prevention agrees that “identity is among the basic causes of suicide among college individuals. The student is often away from home for the first time, faces new and difficult academic challenges and is thrust into a social whirl he never experienced in high school,” she explained. * Insecurity Hits tops it all. Mm m g::'.. . to another. From one beer lover MICHIGAN 4*226 THE STROH BREWERY COMPANY, DETROIT, The person who commits suicide is never readily identifiable beforehand. Statistically, more women try but more men succeed, college students are more likely to commit suicide than their non-college peers, and suicidal students usually get good grades but never feel quite secure about them. After that, there are only individual cases of marital or dating problems, loneliness, guilt because of college rebelliousness and the necessity to adjust to a whole new community. To deal with potential student suicides, many communities and colleges have organized prevention centers with around-the-clock phone counsellors. But as Newsweek magazine pointed out, there has been no “demonstrable success anywhere in lowering the suicide rate.” Most psychologists attribute this to the fact that people who have already decided to commit suicide would not call prevention centers. But another explanation may be possible in light of a new attitude toward suicides. A counsellor at a suicide prevention center in Iowa said their policy was not “to talk people out of suicide. People have the right to life or nondife. If it helps them to have someone to talk to, then that’s what we’re here for.” Suicide may be a special problem of college because it is often the first time students have to be realistic about their futures. “College is a ruthless gardener,” a social worker at UCLA said. When a student realizes that his dreams may not bear fruit, that he can’t be a great writer, lawyer, doctor or accomplish great social change, then there is a sudden sense of failure, a stressful fear of disappointing one’s parents.” Wednesday, 12 November 1975 .

Such is the case with Dudes, a late incarnation of members from the ancient Family Tree and rather obscure April Wine. This group, let by Bob Segarini, has affected a guitar style that would set even the Statue of Liberty to tapping. Unfortunately, Segarini concentrated so hard on this that he totally ignored any sort of consideration for the other talents apparent in the group. The drumming, handled by Wayne Cullen and Ritchie Henman, is very nicely done; they know when to hold back or really crash through a number. Sadly, all the other instrumentals and vocals are muddled into unrecognizability on this album. The whole package itself is a dead giveaway to how amateurish the production actually is. Just take a quick look at the song titles: "Saturday Night," "I Just Wanna Dance," "Dancin' Shoes," "My Mind's On You," ad nauseum. All those are so cliched I hear my head ringing clear as a bell. They do serve their purpose, though. They are the only method of differentiating the songs. Even the graphics are ridiculously overblown.

Sly's always experimenting and using new techniques in his perpetual exploration of new modes of musical expression. It's a credit to Sly's genius that he usually succeeds in whatever endeavors he's into. His music has changed radically over the years, progressing from his "Dance to the Music," "I Want to Take You Higher" days to the more introspective and mellow style of the last few efforts. Sly seems to have calmed down from his self-destructive life style that threatened to end his career five years ago. That was when Sly made a habit of either coming very late, coming stoned to the hilt, or not coming at all, to his concerts. Fortunately, Sly has settled down somewhat, gotten married (the well publicized concert—wedding), and seems to have gotten his head together. - Tavern organic protein products.

From Austen’s novels he drew structures of order, hierarachy, manners, and courtship: such rigid social structures tend to focus attention on conversations (there’s little else to do) and Terms Of Endearment is full of magnificently charged conversation. Conversation, that is v in the Jamesian sense not dialogue— where what is said is, more often than not, far less important than the nuances of tone, diction, gesture, and context, that surround the exchange. McMurtry’s superb (and newly displayed) ability to convey the importance and subtle essences of what people do and think while their voices and ears are at work makes the talk of this novel flower, at times, into a world as large and lopsided as the novel can — * » » * McMurtry’s latest novel, Terms Of Endearment , is full of isolation., love breaking down, silence, petty passions and disturbingly obvious forms of hopelessness; it is also spilling over with complex love-triangles, May-December flirtations, gorgeous conversations, large passions, and winningly obscure forms of hope. It is not one, nor two, but three novels: the one McMurtry started out writing, the one he started along the way, and the, one we’ve ended up with an uneasy combination of the first two. I found the first fair, the second very good, and the third impossibly flawed and wonderful. The novel McMurtry started writing was intended to be the second book and completion of the trilogy begun with Moving On (the third book of the trilogy, published first this gets complicated) and continued (or is it vice-versa?) in AH My Friends Are Going To Be Strangers (the first book, published second). Terms Of Endearment clearly had to center about Emma Horton, the young wife of a graduate student in the early 60’s, for she was the only major unifying character of the trilogy not already either dead (as Danny Deck seems to be at the end of Strangers ) or defined (as Patsy Clark is in Moving On) by events chronologically in the future but already published particularly for its first 40 and last 60 pages - - — - (see?). its themes, Moreover, the flow of the trilogy also clearly indicated directions, and events of the future that Terms Of Endearment would primarily chronicle the painful and parallel dissolutions of Emma’s, Society’s, and The Novelistic Form’s various marriages, psyches and persons. And it does but only sort of. For a strange thing seems to have happened on the journey through Emma Horton’s hell: McMurtry fell dizzily in love with Emma’s mother Aurora Greenway and another book occurred. As often happens when May-December romances develop, the younger person quickly seeks out a new set of parents to sanction the affair and deliver a quick course in the manners of another generation (Mia Farrow discovered — - - - - create. widow, emissary to Houston Aurora Greenway from Boston, resolute corrector of others’ grammer is a self-constituting world. Within her ken, she imposes structure; through her command of languages, she is able to demand and receive manners, particular forms of courtship, and adherence to whatever set of values she has chosen for the day. Smart, ridiculous, sensitive, and strong-willed, Aurora dominates the novel; the bulk of the story revolves about her merry play with several suitors. She leads the men in intricate dances whose rules only she knows; they grow childish, fumbling, confused, and hopelessly in love. Meanwhile, back in the existential world, Emma Horton is slowly, painfully dying for lack of talk or — — - manners The two novels do not mesh together well; on the surface at least, McMurtry seemingly illustrating well the dangers of writing the second book of a trilogy last handles their relationship awkwardly: the seams are ill-concealed; the clashes between the novels, often violent; and McMurtry finally has to give up the attempt to unify them as things approach a climax by relegating the wrapping-up of Emma’s themes to an appendix, Book II. And yet, somehow, it all works. It works partly because there are numerous literary, ethical, verbal, and critical games at work under the surface of the novel that do serve to establish strange ties clumsily or between them. And it works mostly because McMurtry has succeeded in juxtaposing two worlds not whose likenesses and unlikenesses are richly resonant. The Novel of Sensibility sits there, silly and prim, in the middle and suggests of a more modernly self-conscious novel volumes about the ludicrous aspects of our own culture — — — - that we’re too bound up in it to see. Perhaps, one begins to think with a peculiar feeling, Jane Austen’s Emma wouldn’t (as one assumes) find our culture terrifying at all, but rather simply silly. Perhaps, the only possibility for real “casual” conversation contact between unattached men and women in a rigidly structured society is also the only possibility for real contact between men and women in a society where roles and manners are volatile and unstable. I’m not sure yet, in summary, that I’d like to see the new category of novel Larry McMurtry appears to have invented “The Modern American Nihilistic Novel of catch on; but I do know I liked Sense and Sensibility” this one.

Buffalo played its best game of the tournament to defeat the Bengals 15-6 and 15-3. Many of the Bulls were surprised at how poorly State played. “I thought Buffalo State would play harder,” commented Bulls coach Peter Weinreich. “They didn’t seem to be psyched," added Maloney. The key to the win once again was Buffalo’s spiking. Wroblewski, Price, Schlesinger and Marylin Dellwardt all spiked well while Maloney and Barb Fislar contributed with their brilliant serving. After a disappointing last half of the season, the players felt good about winning the championship. “I’m really happy,” said Wroblewski. “It was a total team effort, and we couldn't have done it without everybody.” The team seemed confident about the state tournament this weekend. “Our team is just as good as any team that’s going to be there,” Wroblewski said.

We played well when we were out there even, but the disruption threw off our Only lines,” said Wright There was even more disruption when Doug Davidson was forced to sub for Chris Bonn, who is out with a separated shoulder. If nothing else, the Bulls displayed solid effort throughout the game, never giving up on themselves. They staged a courageous comeback attempt after being down 4-0 in the first period. “We didn’t give up or throw in the towel. We have some pride and desire, and I think that kept us going.” Wright said. That desire and pride kept the Bulls going through the second and third periods, when they played Clarkson to a standstill (shots were even at 31 in the last two frames}, although they were out scored seven to four in the ir—’ ■fr * ri WANTA' # final periods Naughty, naughty Throughout the game, play was chippy, and tempers flared on more than one occasion. A total of 38 minutes in penalties was called in the game by referee Field, whose heady officiating prevented any serious battles. Wright attributed the scrappy play to opening night jitters, and suggested that the teams “were feeling each other out.” He also added that a little physical action gets the frustration out of the players’ systems. Buffalo’s “Kid Line” of Ronny Reisweber (LW), Ed Patterson (C), and Brian Grow (RW), played well despite the loss. The three freshmen skated hard all night long and got their first goal as collegians in the second period when Grow slammed a Reisweber rebound into the net. some scoring,” said Wright. Despite missing three scoring opportunities, Doug Davidson did a creditable fill-in job on the first line, although he normally centers the team’s fourth unit. Ray Gruarin, the second line’s center, played stoically, despite an ailing back, and in goal, Moore did a commendable job against the shell-shocking. “I’m satisfied with Moore’s play. He did a good job, although he was tired at the end of the game,” Wright said. For the Bulls to win a high percentage of their upcoming games, their defensive play will have to improve drastically. While they seemed confused at times, the defensive pairs did show promise. More experience playing together should help to solidify them even further. “We also have to work on our power play, and spend some time on it,” said Wright.
